Edison's comprehensive report, Largest ex-China HREE project, was published today, and examines the investment case for Avalon, the mineral development company.
Highlights from the analysis by Tom Hayes, an analyst on Edison's Mining team, include:
Most advanced non-Chinese heavy rare earth element (HREE) enriched project, Nechalacho in Northwest Territories, Canada.
Planned construction of a separation plant in Louisiana, US, has the potential to vastly reduce western end-user exposure to Chinese dominant supply of HREE.
Avalon has strong relationships with future off-take partners, helped in part by strict adherence to its Corporate Sustainability Report, a key differentiator in the rare earth space.
Avalon Rare Metals is a mineral development company focused on developing its 100%-owned Nechalacho project in the Northwest Territories, Canada. It also has a number of other exploration-stage rare metals projects in North America.
