Investors cornering rare earth and vanadium stocks as China weaponizes those minerals against the US.

As reported by Reuters "China rare earth prices soar on their potential role in trade war", Chinese rare earth prices are set to climb beyond multi-year highs following a flurry of state media reports that Beijing could weaponize its supply-dominance of the prized minerals in its trade war with Washington. Rare earth metals, a group of 17 elements that appear in low concentrations in the ground, are used in a wide-range of products stretching from lasers and military equipment to magnets found in consumer electronics.

China supplied 80% of the rare earth metals imported by the United States from 2014 to 2017. Chinese state newspapers last month reported that Beijing could use that fact as leverage in the ongoing trade dispute between the two countries.

Rare Earth Mining Stocks have soared in response to the news, with prices shooting up 200%, 300%, and more in the past two weeks.

Vanadium may be the next trade target and big spike

Bank of Montreal has recently come out with a bullish vanadium research report.

Highlights:

Discover the only vanadium mine that matters

With US importing 100% of its vanadium, Gibellini is the only vanadium mine that matters for North American investors.

The Gibellini vanadium deposit, developed by Prophecy Development Corp (TSX: PCY, OTCQX: PRPCF) and located in the heart of the Nevada mining district, is the only mine that could bring about vanadium production in the USA in the near term. Its construction is planned for 2021, with production expected in 2022.

President Trump signed an executive order titled “Improve Access to Domestic Critical Mineral Resources on Federal Lands and Reduce Federal Permitting Timeframes.”

Gibellini’s forecast vanadium production would constitute 3% of the world’s supply. That would satisfy half of US demand.

Only by investing in US vanadium mines will you be able to gain maximum benefit from rising vanadium prices and the Buy America policy.

Don’t be left behind by buying vanadium mines in China, Russia, and South Africa, where your profit margin can be eaten up by tariffs and import barriers.

Here comes the trigger for vanadium - Stay ahead of the herd

On June 4, 2019, the US Department of Commerce (DoC) issued a press release on critical metals. Vanadium and rare earth metals are mentioned among 35 critical metals.

The report shows United States has 100% import reliance on vanadium and rare earth metals.

DoC simultaneously published a 50-page report, “Federal Strategy to Secure Supplies of Critical Metals,” a strategy which may include creating a national strategic stockpile that could cause vanadium prices to sky rocket.

The Buy American policy puts US vanadium mines in hot demand

In April 2019, the US Department of Commerce introduced the results of an investigation under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act of 1962. They propose a quota that in effect reserves 25 percent of the domestic market for US-mined uranium and establishes a "Buy American" policy for U.S. government entities that use uranium.

Experts believe Section 232 can be applied to vanadium. That could double or more US vanadium prices.

The Mining Rush is on in Nevada Again

The renowned Canadian think tank Fraser Institute ranked Nevada as the world’s #1 jurisdiction for mining investment.

Prophecy’s Gibellini vanadium project in Nevada is ideally located in the midst of all the major gold and silver mines operated by mining giants Barrick and Newmont.

Due to its great location and exceptional project economics, Gibellini is the prime acquisition target for major US mining companies.
