Description
Description | The Browns Range heavy earths project in Western Australia aims to produce 4,350 tonnes of total rare earth oxides annually, focusing on heavy rare earth elements like dysprosium and terbium. The project involves transitioning from open-pit to underground sublevel caving mining over an 11-year mine life, with processing targeting 84% recovery rates and 25% concentrate grade. It addresses global supply chain vulnerabilities by providing non-Chinese heavy rare earth production capacity, supporting renewable energy and advanced manufacturing sectors. |
