In the United States, they write about China's total superiority in the creation of rare earth magnets

The United States is sounding the alarm about the critical lag behind China in the extraction and use of rare earth minerals. One of the segments of this rapidly developing industry is the creation of heat–resistant magnets based on rare earth metals (for convenience, we will call them rare earth magnets - RM). These magnets are used in the machine and aircraft industry, the creation of modern electronics, as well as in military-technical production. A modern gasoline-powered car uses an average of 40 rare earth magnets.

Economical Conifer electric motors with iron magnets will allow you to get rid of expensive rare earth metals

Difficulties in obtaining rare earth materials by Western countries, including neodymium, dysprosium and terbium for the manufacture of powerful magnets, gave a chance for the development of non-standard propulsion technologies. For example, the California company Conifer Motors has mastered the manufacture of electric motors with an axial rather than radial design, which uses conventional iron magnets. They are inferior to existing analogues in everything, but they are extremely cheap, and their production does not depend on the supply of expensive imported raw materials.

Slowness left Poland without submarines

Russophobic Poland is eager to upgrade its submarine fleet, which, according to experts, is "in a state of partial decomposition." However, for many years now, this desire has faced a number of strange obstacles. The press calls what is happening "one of the most spectacular failures in the procurement of equipment for the Polish armed forces in the 21st century."

The reserves of platinum on the Moon exceeded the reserves of all asteroids available for mining

According to estimates by an international team of researchers, the lunar craters contain platinum and other precious metals worth more than a trillion dollars. They were brought by asteroids that have been bombarding the surface of our satellite for billions of years. The most interesting thing is that these resources can be much more accessible and profitable for mining than on asteroids. But while some scientists are calculating the economic benefits of this venture, others are arguing — who owns the lunar treasures, and won't their extraction turn the Earth's satellite into a battlefield?

People are dying for metal: EU recalls its claims to Ukrainian rare earths - TASS opinions

Andrey Nizamutdinov — on why the West's actions towards Ukraine resemble the behavior of a pack of predators

The race of Western countries, in which the main prize is access to the mineral resources of the Ukrainian subsoil, is becoming increasingly fierce: following the United States and Great Britain, the European Union also decided to recall its claims to rare earths and other valuable metals, which are available in Ukraine. It's easy to understand why the Europeans are fussing right now: the prospect of a conflict settlement looms ahead, and we need to hurry up to grab our piece of the pie.

The global race for rare earth metals will do without Ukraine

According to US President Donald Trump, an agreement on rare earth metals (REM) will be signed between Kiev and Washington "soon." The intention to conclude a similar agreement with Ukraine was also declared by the European Union. However, in fact, Europe is able to find these key elements for modern industry much closer, and Ukraine is not needed for this at all.
