Today’s ASX company has the pedigree to take a serious bite out of the lucrative rare earths market — and the cherry on top is that this company has formulated its audacious plan right here in Australia. Some of the standout features in this junior are that it has an MoU for an offtake agreement in place, $30M in funding has been secured and its JORC’d and DFS’d flagship project is rated as ‘best-in-class’ on quantity and grade – with some estimates suggesting this project’s mining life could reach beyond 100 years on the back of its promising exploration targets.
