There was a 60 Minutes segment on that with the CEO of the lone survivor mine a couple of years ago. Not sure what happened as they closed and reopened and then might be facing financial problems iirc.
China drove Molycorp into bankruptcy 5 years ago same way that they crushed the US steel industry. We have been at war with the CCP for a long time. The CCP also owns many of our politicians. He need to start executing the traitors.
Oaktree Capital bought up the Molycorp assets and Brookfield Asset Mgmt now controls Oaktree.
Good, maybe we can get the indians to use more modern weapons in their next border clash with China. I am thinking a big step forward to muzzle loading flintlocks.Trump bring heat on ChiComs. Defense sales to Taiwan and defense agreement with India. Tightening the noose just as he implied. Watch for proxy NK to start really acting up.

Chinese military-linked entities, including those behind extensive cyber attacks and espionage, funneled at least $88 million into U.S. universities over the course of six years, according to a Washington Free Beacon review of federal records.
Some of America's most prestigious universities have cashed lucrative checks from Chinese institutions that directly threatened national security. Duke University operates a joint-campus in China with Wuhan University, a public university that repeatedly carried out cyber attacks on behalf of the Chinese military. Northwestern University and the University of California Irvine have together received more than $4 million in research funding from an entity controlled by the Aviation Industry Corporation of China, a Chinese defense contractor that used stolen designs of American F-35 fighters to build planes for the Chinese military.
Institutions controlled by the Chinese government—state-owned enterprises, state-controlled public universities, government-controlled nonprofits, and other sources—collectively donated at least $315 million to American colleges between 2014 and 2019. More than a quarter of the contributions—27 percent—came from either state-owned defense contractors or public universities that closely partner with the Chinese military to conduct defense research.
