As global demand for essential minerals surges, Verde AgriTech’s discovery of magnetic rare earth elements (MREs) couldn’t come at a more critical time. The Economist recently shed light on how China has consolidated control over vital mineral supply chains, especially in rare earths, crucial for technologies like electric vehicles and renewable energy systems .
China’s influence is sweeping: they control over 80% of the world’s rare earth processing, and this dominance extends to lithium, nickel, and cobalt, minerals central to batteries, electronics, and defense. Through massive investments in mining and processing, China has achieved a virtual monopoly over these sectors, impacting global pricing, availability, and geopolitical strategy.
At Verde AgriTech, we’re excited to share our own contribution to diversifying the rare earth supply. Within our mineral-rich concessions in Brazil, we’ve identified significant concentrations of rare earth elements like neodymium, praseodymium, dysprosium, and terbium—critical materials for producing high-performance magnets used in green technologies. Our latest assays reveal total rare earth oxide (TREO) levels up to 12,487 ppm, signaling a high-grade source for these vital materials.
As China continues to reshape the minerals market, our discovery at Verde AgriTech supports a path toward a more resilient and sustainable global supply chain. By expanding supply sources beyond the existing bottleneck, we can help reduce vulnerabilities and foster innovation across industries.
Our focus remains on responsible sourcing, balancing the exploration of rare earth resources with our commitment to low-carbon fertilizer production. We believe that sustainable practices are key to achieving mineral independence without compromising environmental health.
Verde AgriTech is proud to be part of a global effort to secure critical minerals and support industries that drive a sustainable, technologically advanced future.
