Description	The Phalaborwa Rare Earths Project in South Africa is an industrial waste processing or 'urban mining' project aimed at extracting Rare Earth Elements (REE) such as neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium from 35 million tons of phosphogypsum, a mining waste byproduct. The project focuses on both extraction and processing of REEs, which are critical for high-performance permanent magnets used in wind turbines, electric vehicles, and defense applications. The project has received a $50 million equity investment from the US International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) as part of strategic efforts to reduce China's dominance in the rare earths sector.
