you make it sound like its chinese companies selling chinese products to the world. Instead of chinese workers making products for foreign companies to sell.
I remember learning about various types of rare earth metals and how they are commonly found in China. China got lucky with its reservoir of rare earth metals and they are capitalizing on them, as they rightly should! Perhaps saying that they are commonly found in China is incorrect. I should rather say that China mines and processes these rare earth materials much more effectively than other nations. Considering how hazardous the process is, they are taking a risk. If I had some resources that others wanted, I would gladly control them and charge as much as I like, because it has become a necessary component. Firms will pay whatever it takes to ensure that they can manufacture better products. And people will continue to buy them because deep down inside, people are not so worried about the price. They are more concerned with wanting something. Having said that, when other nations decide to embark on the hazardous process of processing these rare earth metals, then the price will naturally drop due to competition. We all know that competition breeds innovation. Then electronics will no longer be so expensive.
You clearly never watched the video they are not rare in the ground they are just hard to get out and process in a usable form. The problem is the pollution and costs involved in processing them not how rare they are in the ground because they are actually common metals.
Pranjal Rahman yes people have to pay the price (environment) to produce that material. Sale at higher price and get that money to implement control in those production plants in China.
The most important benefit of not having answerable to people, in US you would be sued for radiation poisoning by 50 NGOs by the time your neodymium processing plant is operable.
They are not rare in the ground they are just hard to get out and process in a usable form. The problem is the pollution and costs involved in processing them not how rare they are in the ground because they are actually common metals.
They are actually quite common with the exception of luiticium. The source ore is a mineral called mozanite. It's a mix of zirconium, thorium, several rare earths, and silica. The only reason it isn't processed in the US is because of the thorium. Only China dares to process it and the thorium is discarded causing severe pollution near the process plant.
Rare earth metal is literally in every country on earth. China just has the infrastructure to process them, and companies find it easier to buy from China instead of creating a startup or venture to mine them in the US or Japan. Japan as a matter of fact hit a treasure trove of rare earth metals in its seabed, and has already went into researching and developing ways to mine them, the Japanese are obviously geniuses so its only a matter of time before they have a robust method of extracting the trillions of dollars worth of rare earth metals on its shores.
China doesn't have 90% of rare earth metals in the world, China SUPPLIES 90% of rare earth metals to the world. THERE'S A BIG DIFFERENCE. Mining rare earth is incredibly polluting and countries like Japan don't mine them because they have environmental laws that China doesn't, in fact Japan has possibly the largest rare earth metal deposits on its shores, and they've been looking for ways to mine them while maintaining their environmental laws, Japanese are smart so its only a matter of time. www.sciencemag.org/news/2018/04/global-trove-rare-earth-metals-found-japans-deep-sea-mud

We have to remember that countries that have rare earth reserves are not the same as countries who produces them. Just like mentioned in this video, it’s not because they are rare, but it is because very difficult to mine them. The superpower countries will try to approach the weaker countries that have significant rare earth reserves but do not have the means to dig them up.

Last I heard, selling something isn't stealing nor is it ripping you off. You get the goods you paid for. It's called trade. China is producing more things the US wants than the US is producing things China wants. Trump doesn't like that, so trade war.
US wants to increase export quotas so as to keep up competition with China's economy. These tariffs and policies are just a way for US to slow down China's growth for them to catch up. Trade war is inevitable.
The US mine cannot be economically competitive simply because US has a strict environment laws about waste treatment. China mines could just dump the waste without much repercussion from the government
I think using neodymium magnets in the 3 was a big mistake on Tesla's part as it created supply and pollution issues that did not exist with previous models which use an AC induction motor.

Even though China has more than 80 percent of rare earth minerals, but those natural resources are limited. The lady on the video said that China can take hostage on the rare earth minerals, but the Chinese officials told other countries' officials to mine their rare earth minerals more than 10 years ago, the Chinese also need those rare earth minerals for their own usages.

0:50 Telsa cars do not have neo Neodymium in their engine to spin. It is a 3 phase engine invented by nicola Tesla. Same for wind turbine. However, some hybrid car uses a brushless DC motor which requires Neodymium magnet.
1:30 - "In a couple decades we're forecast to have over a million vehicles on the road in the US." That's an absurdly conservative estimate considering that just last month EVs in the US were selling at an annual rate of over 500k.
There was a US processing plant for rare earths in Indiana. GM owned it and wanted to sell, Chinese were allowed to buy, on the promise to the government that they'd keep it open 5 years. Stupid US government thought the company would then seek a handout to stay open (like all crony companies). Wrong. In 2002, the day after that 5 year period, the Chinese closed the plant, deconstructed it and shipped it entirely to China where they rebuilt the plant the same way it was in Indiana, and got to work. Soon after they controlled the global rare earth metals market. Well done America.
All factors covered this is luxury metal, eventually neodymium ore along with any radio isotopes might produce artificial means of production,how is a challenge in abstract progections. Fiction sometims becomes fact.Neodymium isn't the only source of magnetism also.Any ferofluid is also a simple more abundant source of magnetism already deployed and more widely like steel ..
Interesting to see how US Americans (or at least many of them) think that all other nations are filled with ratbags as is USA. Kinda projecting their own foul traits onto all others.
I am just thinking if the materials like this are controlled then majority of experiments based on this material may not yield expected result as minor tweaks to supply export may distort properties that are necessary for new invention
Neodymium is as abundant as copper and not really rare. China operates more mines than the US largely because the US EPA heavily restricts open pit mining.
I born in BaoTou, China. I fully support cut off the supply rear earth to the US, really. Let America develop its own rear earth system. Never trust the US will bring good thing to China.
In California? Good luck getting a mine opened pass those hippies. They’ll tax you to the point you need 500% tariff on Chinese import just to survive.
FYI it’s too costly to extract the pure Neodymium, so the magnets are a mix of rare earths. Although it is done, I have a bottle of a few grams and a tube of argon with maybe 10g. Just in case I wanna make some magnets.
One solution is for the US to rethink and restrategize our recycling program. Not the only solution but a part of the overall solution. Protect the environment as best we can.
Recycling rare earths is a must as economically viable ore can run out and it's rumored China's supplies are running out which is why they have been trying to secure sources out side of their borders.
australia has a company called lynas who is looking into it. but new mining projects can take up to 10 years to reach production. And if china wants to bankrupt all these small company they can just lower their prices of rare earths 10 years later and bankrupt them all like they did last time,
China's dominance in the rare earth market is due to the USA making things difficult for the mining industry in our own country. The tailings from many mines in this country contain, along with rare earths, thorium, which is mildly radioactive, thus the environmental constraints made it to expensive to mine.
@Matz Gratz. The processing is expensive and not environmentally-friendly that is why the rare-earth elements ores once they are mined are all sent to mainland China for processing. You are welcome to the environment pollution and environmental destruction.
It is not just about neodymium. Wind turbines usually need dysprosium, and some sources point to this REE as the most demanded one. Hydrogen-fuel cars, meanwhile, need some kgs of lanthanum (hydrogen storage issue). And erbium is needed in signal-sending wires. Gadolinium has important medical applications.
Security is a legit reason. And yeah, Americans think it's alright, just as I'm sure many Chinese think it is justified for China to ban Google, Facebook, Reddit, and a dozen other american companies since forever ago.
Sir, its not "controlled by China". It is China's property.
Absolutely true. Cheers

Interesting to see how US Americans (or at least many of them) think that all other nations are filled with ratbags as is USA. Kinda projecting their own foul traits onto all others.
American exceptionalism
Bastnäsite is the endmember sought worldwide, if you got it, name your price.
I call BS, Amazon is still fully stocked with all kinds of neodymium magnets, we'll just have to mine them from Amazon
Leave the rain forest alone. Haven't we damaged our ecosystem enough?
@@Mrityormokshiya Amazon the company, not the forest you dot
@@Meiiokoii rip I was contemplating whether you meant the forest or the company when you wrote about mining neodymium from Amazon.
There's a ~10% Chinese ownership of MP.
Medallion Resources Ltd
OTCQB: MLLOF
Definitely price hike that SOB!
I am just thinking if the materials like this are controlled then majority of experiments based on this material may not yield expected result as minor tweaks to supply export may distort properties that are necessary for new invention
The future is underneath our feet literally.
CHINE IS NOT DEMOCRATIC COUNTRY..it is COMUNIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how can anybody expect honesty and freedom from them!!!
who expected? dumb question from a dumb
Neodymium is as abundant as copper and not really rare. China operates more mines than the US largely because the US EPA heavily restricts open pit mining.
I born in BaoTou, China. I fully support cut off the supply rear earth to the US, really. Let America develop its own rear earth system. Never trust the US will bring good thing to China.
We View You are right! Never sell rare earth to US!
In California? Good luck getting a mine opened pass those hippies. They’ll tax you to the point you need 500% tariff on Chinese import just to survive.
CesarDeJeronimo Guess we ID a “new Californian” here. Nope, I am from the North, a Yankee actually and lives in the home of the Yankees.
jmarks881 You are number 8 alright, number 8 in GDP per capita. From a state that stretched most of the west coast that’s far from being impressive
This is another example of why science is important. WE can't have technology without science. STEM, therefore, not STEAM.
@Lawrence Hawkins. Got to see this when it is DONE.
And Goody didn't know about the value chain and supply chain?
Wherr is the adamantium
Already mine out. And the US Government used it all to fused it inside my bones.
Is there any mineral with the name Trumpium?
Subramanian Mani look for it in your sewage system.
OMG! I just want some magnets to hang things up in my classroom! This is news to me!
And now China ban it for USA. XD
FYI it’s too costly to extract the pure Neodymium, so the magnets are a mix of rare earths. Although it is done, I have a bottle of a few grams and a tube of argon with maybe 10g. Just in case I wanna make some magnets.
Just invest on interstellar mining, source it from another planet.
One solution is for the US to rethink and restrategize our recycling program. Not the only solution but a part of the overall solution. Protect the environment as best we can.
Recycling rare earths is a must as economically viable ore can run out and it's rumored China's supplies are running out which is why they have been trying to secure sources out side of their borders.
Your recycling program was heavily reliant on China’s processing capacity
dw america australia will supply you if needed we mine everything
australia has a company called lynas who is looking into it. but new mining projects can take up to 10 years to reach production. And if china wants to bankrupt all these small company they can just lower their prices of rare earths 10 years later and bankrupt them all like they did last time,
Thank you for English caption😀👍🏻💕❤️
can we not recycle these neodymium magnets Iam sure tons off that stuf goes to landfills.??
Surely it can be recycled but the abundance of neodymium is very little, no worthy for companies to recycle them
Sure that is doable but the cost and effort of recycling them is probably higher than making new ones and that's a big no no for capitalists.
cost is the biggest problem
China's dominance in the rare earth market is due to the USA making things difficult for the mining industry in our own country. The tailings from many mines in this country contain, along with rare earths, thorium, which is mildly radioactive, thus the environmental constraints made it to expensive to mine.
Jokes on you now US
Jokes on humans.
I had heard of it although I have just realised I have been spelling it incorrectly.
A Good Fair Game!
Neyodimum and samarium are the widely used permenant magnet material for PMBLDC motor's
Samarium magnets are not popular
I want cheaper stuff not mercantilism Donald Trump.
0:27 "neo comes from the ground." DUH?!
Please produce rare earths so we don't have to give the CCP money
In the USA
It's found in the Florida beach Sand.
Rare earth is important for TV and computer lanthanum is used for large batteries
@Matz Gratz. The processing is expensive and not environmentally-friendly that is why the rare-earth elements ores once they are mined are all sent to mainland China for processing. You are welcome to the environment pollution and environmental destruction.
It is not just about neodymium. Wind turbines usually need dysprosium, and some sources point to this REE as the most demanded one. Hydrogen-fuel cars, meanwhile, need some kgs of lanthanum (hydrogen storage issue). And erbium is needed in signal-sending wires. Gadolinium has important medical applications.
America had just not mined it yet .
Let China use theirs first
Another good reason why US wants NK so much.. they are loaded with rare earth metals.
can't even win in vietnam. learn from history man
Magnet is a must for electric power generation, but not compulsory for a motor to generate mechanical energy
so vibranium is not the rarest and on demand
Harry WS 😂😂😂😂
how much are vibranium?...
OTOH, *the americans think it's alright for the U.S. to hold Huawei hostage for no legit reason~*
Security is a legit reason. And yeah, Americans think it's alright, just as I'm sure many Chinese think it is justified for China to ban Google, Facebook, Reddit, and a dozen other american companies since forever ago.
All you have to do is order neodymium through the mail from China. They'll ship it for 99 cents including free shipping.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Alibaba taubau shipping free.😂😂😂😂😂

Isn't Tesla motor an asynchronous induction motor?
