North America is the second-largest region in the world for rare earth metals. North America’s mine deposits, innovative technologies, and research & development enable the region to meet the high demand in rare earth metals.The growing effort for low carbon technologies in North America contributes a major role in the growth of rare earth market.

The U.S. had the highest demand for rare earth oxides in North America, followed by Canada. The U.S. is expected to be the fastest growing region, at a CAGR of around 8%.North America has been the most active region in terms of number of developments, followed by Asia-Pacific.

Great Western Minerals Group Ltd. (Saskatoon, Canada) and Molycorp Inc. (Colorado, U.S.) are among the most active players in the market.

Europe Rare Earth Metals Market
The European market for rare earth oxides is mostly dependent upon imports and is facing a rigorous challenge to meet the growing demand. Petroleum, automobile, industrial, and other catalyst market segments are all set to grow moderately over the next five years, which eventually would increase the rare earth consumption.Europe focuses on investments in the necessary innovative technologies for rare earths recycling and substitution. The Europeanmarket is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 10 – 12%, during the forecast period.

The European Union imports more than 90% of its rare earth metal needs from countries such as China, due to insufficient domestic supply within the region. To ensure supply security, the EU is trying to improve access to rare earths, reduce their consumption and enhance extraction conditions across the continent.

South America, Africa, Middle East Rare Earth Metals Market
Estonia, South Africa, and Brazil are some of the other countries which carry out the production of rare earth metals. The current production trend is focused on meeting the local demands rather than being an import-oriented country. The discovery of rare earth deposit has proved Brazil to be a significant market.

Rare earth magnets are widely used in major consumer and industrial electronic applications, such as smartphones, acoustic speakers, hard disk drives, mainly due to their high performance to size ratio and high magnetic strength. The usage of rare earth metals in permanent magnets is expected to grow by 12% to 14% in the next five to ten years.The rare earth metals used in the emerging technologies such as wind turbines and hybrid electric vehicles are expected to experience an increased demand in the emerging economies of the region.
