flag Extinct volcanoes rich in rare earth elements identified for potential sustainable supply.

flag A recent study indicates that extinct volcanoes may be rich in rare earth elements (REEs) due to iron-rich magma, which is significantly more efficient at concentrating these metals than magma from active volcanoes. flag This discovery is crucial as REEs are essential for clean technologies like electric vehicles and wind turbines. flag With increasing global demand and reliance on China for supplies, exploring these dormant sites could provide new, sustainable sources of REEs.
