Re: Today's Neodymium "News"A dearth of RE ore has never been the limiting constraint (it's the processing). If that new find is less radioactive, that doesn't suck for processing. While 10,000 to 20,000 feet below the surface of the Pacific ocean doesn't seem all that easy to mine, at least you don't have to dig a hole (to start).I also saw in today's news that China got pinged by the WTO for unfair restrictions on selling some commodities, mostly associated with steel making and other industrial materials. While not RE elements specifically in this complaint, it suggests they would lose a similar complaint about RE restrictions. http://www.cnbc.com/id/43647665JR
