The Lanthanide (Rare Earth) elements, often seen as an appendage to periodic tables, have an ever-growing variety of applications in modern technology. The physical and chemical properties of the lanthanide elements, and of their derivatives, contribute essential functions to a range of modern-day materials and lanthanide products affect our daily lives with their use in everyday products such as cell phones, televisions, computers and transportation systems.

Furthermore researchers, academic and industrial, continue to uncover new possibilities through a deeper understanding of those properties. They are integral components in many of today’s cutting-edge scientific research projects and are proving invaluable for the environment as they pave the way for cleaner air and enable new pollution-control systems for the future.

Molycorp's Mountain Pass Rare Earth mine is the only commercialized western resource developed solely for these critical elements.
