True as well, but afaik, Canada has a considerably large amount of proven RE reserves, basically the most after China and Russia.
My numbers there might be slightly off, but I’d be thinking Central and South America would be primarily getting couped for oil or perhaps farm/pasture land.
The bottleneck is refining capacity, not ore. A bunch of countries have rare earths, but only China has the factories, skilled workforce and scientists.
If this is accurate, then yes, you are evidently correct, and I did not know that.
So thanks for spurring me to look into it!
If I’m understanding this right, Canada likely has more than Brazil overall, but Brazil’s are proven, located, and extraction is more mature, whereas Canada’s are still in the exploration phase, thus are not yet proven.

What is RE in this context? I genuinely have never have heard of it before
Rare earth as in rare earth metals I’d assume based on context.
Hahaha face-palm
Yes, yeah, sorry, im just lazy at typing lol
