China's Yttrium Monopoly Faces a Sudden Brazilian Challenger
Newly released drilling results from Brazilian Rare Earths Limited (ASX: BRE) at their Monte Alto District in Bahia, Brazil, suggest a massive geological alternative to Chinese yttrium dominance is taking shape in the Western Hemisphere. Diamond drill hole MADD0210 returned 2.5 metres at 7.5% TREO, including a peak sub-interval of 1.3 metres at 10.9% TREO - with yttrium oxide comprising an extraordinary 5.8% of that interval, confirming heavy rare earths as the dominant geological feature of the bedrock mineralisation.
