DEMAND

Adamas Intelligence, leading analysts in the REE industry, estimates that the REE prices will increase significantly in the years to come. (Rare Market Outlook: Supply, demand and pricing from 2016 through 2025)

Adamas in its report from December 2016 inter alia states:

«The future will be marked by strong global demand growth for a number of rare earth elements, such as neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and lanthanum, and consequently, will see prices of most rare earth products return to levels that sustain the profitability and growth of today's dominant producers, and incentivize continued investment in exploration and resource development globally.»

"The outlook for rare earth demand from 2020 through 2025, and beyond, is exceptionally promising. This period reveals that for many of today's most highly publicized rare earth end-uses, such as electric vehicles, wind turbines, and many others, the rate of annual demand growth is poised to accelerate between 2020 and 2025, steering global rare earth demand to unfathomable new heights in the years thereafter. «
