Molycorp and Lynas look set to satisfy demand for light elements, with room for a third operator, such as Canada’s Iamgold, which could quickly start up byproduct production at an existing mine.
莫利矿业公司和Lynas似乎将能够满足轻稀土元素的需求,而其他矿商(如加拿大的Iamgold)可能很快将在一处现有矿藏生产副产品。
But analysts point to Quest’s Strange Lake project in Quebec, as well as projects run by Tasman Metals in Sweden, Matamec Explorations and Avalon Rare Metals in Canada and Alkane Resources in Australia, as those nearest to going in to production of heavy rare earths.
但分析师指出,Quest在魁北克的Strange Lake项目、Tasman Metals在瑞典的项目、Matamec Explorations和阿瓦朗稀有金属(Avalon Rare Metals)在加拿大的项目以及Alkane Resources在澳大利亚的项目,都是最接近投产重稀土的项目。
“Most of the deposits that are richer in the heavy rare earths contain rare-earth-bearing minerals that have never been processed before, notes Mr Hatch at Technology Metals Research. “With enough time and money, companies can eventually find a technical solution. For some of these projects, however, the cost of production could outweigh the value of the material that you produce.
“大多数富含重稀土的矿床含有此前从未加工过的含稀土矿物,Technology Metals Research的哈奇表示,“如果有足够的时间和资金,矿业公司终将能找到技术解决方案。但就部分项目而言,其生产成本可能会高于产品的价值。
