Jun 1, 2025, 4:00:00 AM UTC
Summary
Ramaco Resources plans to commence large-scale mining of rare earth ores at the Brook Mine in Wyoming starting on June 1, 2025. This marks a significant development as it will be the first new rare earth mine in the U.S. in over 70 years. The Brook Mine is expected to contribute to domestic supply of critical minerals, particularly following recent export bans from China on certain rare earth elements. Ramaco aims to transition into commercial production of both metallurgical coal and rare earths, with a pilot processing facility planned for later in 2025.
