Rare Earth Products
What is Rare Earth?
Rare earth elements (REEs) are a group of 17 metallic elements that include the 15 lanthanides on the periodic table, plus scandium and yttrium. Despite their name, these elements are relatively abundant in the Earth’s crust, but they are rarely found in concentrated forms, making their extraction and processing challenging.
