Advanced Materials/Metals (Overweight/Maintain) Rare earth prices climbing due to China’s potential export restrictions Rare earth prices surge on China’s threat to restrict exports to the US Issue Comment China’s potential export cutoff could cause price rally in the short/medium term June 3, 2019 Lynas, the largest rare earth producer outside China, to be the main beneficiary Mirae Asset Daewoo Co., Ltd. Rare earth prices surge on China’s threat to restrict exports to the US [Advanced Materials/Metals] Worries that China could limit its rare earth exports to the US amid rising trade tensions have sparked a surge in rare earth prices. Compared to prior lows, prices are up 63% for Jaekwang Rhee dysprosium oxide (used in permanent magnets/magnetic refrigeration), 54% for gadolinium +822-3774-6022 oxide (used in nuclear reactor control rods/magneto-optical recording), 39% for holmium [email protected] oxide (used in pigments/lasers), 29% for neodymium oxide (used in glass/ceramics), 24% for terbium oxide (used in high color rendering lamps/magneto-optical recording), and 14% for erbium oxide (used in optical glass/semiconductors). China’s potential export cutoff could cause price rally in the short/medium term As of 2018, China accounted for roughly 71% of global rare earth ore production and at least 90% of global rare earth processing capacity. As such, if China restricts rare earth exports to the US, prices are likely to rally in the short and medium term. Back in 2010, China curbed rare earth exports to Japan due to a territorial dispute, causing rare earth prices to increase fivefold in just six months. In the long term, rare earth prices are likely to stabilize lower as production outside China increases. However, most countries are likely to impose stricter environmental rules on rare earth mining and processing compared to those in China. Given the related cost pressures, we believe rare earth prices will still remain higher than current levels over the long term. Lynas, the largest rare earth producer outside China, to be the main beneficiary If China restricts US-bound rare earth exports, we believe Australian company Lynas, the largest rare earth miner and processor outside China, will benefit. Lynas has a mine in Western Australia, and ores produced there are processed at its plant in Malaysia. The company also recently signed an MOU with US-based Blue Line to build a rare earth processing facility in Texas.
