I've always wondered why we don't have such Thorium Reactors already. I've heard that the waste cannot be used to make weapons but I don't know how true this is. Is Thorium really such a good choice for nuclear energy or is this just hype from 'big thorium', so to speak?
@@sirsiralot7635 Thorium reactors produce U233 which is what undergoes the chain reaction and which can and has been used in prototype nuclear bombs.

Rare Earth Mining exists or existed recently in Australia and also in California Mojave Dessert. The largest mine in the world operated for decades in california by a company called MolyCorp... The mine is fully constructed and just only partially operating. The California mine has been owned and operated as subsidiary of Chevron corporation in the past. It also supplied rare earth minerals for US Military uses for decades.
deenr qqwe: Indium is necessary for touch panels. No indium, goodbye smart phones, etc. Electric cars are unquestionably the wave of the future, as are windmills. Both *require* neodymium, as do powerful magnets when used in pretty much any application. Although this video doesn't address it, Thorium is likely to power the future. Molten Fuel Reactors (often referred to as MSRs) such as LFTRs, are the future of clean nuclear power, and people who tell you that there is no such thing as clean, safe nuclear, don't know what they're talking about. I recommend Gordon McDowell's fine channel on next gen reactors, especially thorium reactors.
I read previously that rare earth elements aren't rare (they're as common as copper), but while not technically rare, they're pretty evenly distributed rather than appearing in pockets like other elements. So that's what makes them rare.
Isn't the view on China kinda biased? Like China is trying to be more green, it produces the most green energy on the world yet no one talks bout it, nor how China is the only nation winning against expanding deserts????
Yeah... they also have 're-education' camps for religious people, but people don't talk about that either. (Also, people do talk about china's renewables, anybody knows that).
China is a very polluting country that is trying very hard not to be. So calling it both environmentally destructive and environmentally progressive isn't inaccurate.

Last year they found billions worth of rare earth metals in Kiruna, Sweden - would be nice if you covered that in a future video too (though you might want more data to accumulate before you do a full video on it).
3 years later and the Mountain Pass mine is back open and supplies 16% of the world supply with more projects underway. Turns out you were correct when you said control might change soon as we appear to be approaching that point now.
Also if someone starts up a rare earth mine they drop prices until the new mine goes broke then buy its and closes it down and then the prices rise again.

To process rare earth materials to final usable products are very damaging to environments as well, beside dig out of the ground. In fact, the Chinese took all risk with little profit, they should just stop doing it.
Like you said, rare earths are not rare and they are spread all over the world. Every mine can be converted to rare earth production in addition to the production of whatever they are already mining. Gold, Silver, Copper, Nickel, uranium, thorium, cobalt, silicon, and all the rest. It is just a matter of going through the steps to remove the metals from the ore. If there is a will there is a way.
We need to make as environmentally friendly as possible mines outside the US and then rely on chemistry to get the elements out of the rock and supplying energy from alternative energy sources. Even the alternative energy needs those elements to happen especially with solar, wind, battery, and electric car. We can also recover the elements from used end of life electronics. Be sure to use the proper balanced chemical equation for each reaction.
Amazing video and I loved it. He merged two different takes at 5:23. Not sure if anyone else caught that. Nothing wrong with it. Just mentioning that I noticed (;
1:36 - That's a really outdated copy of the Periodic Table. Elements up to 118 have been synthesised, now have official names. Check the Periodic Videos channel for the names, if you're interested.
NONESENSE, rare earths are found in many places the only problem is, is that the us decided to get all there metals from one place China, but dont you worry old mines will reopen soon. all because the us of a dont want China to have a monopoly here, ps while you are at it usa, perhaps you can find some purpose for all the Thorium you are digging up with all that rare earth ? Last i heared you had some project in oakridge, to make good use of that stuff !
everywhere you mine rare earth there will be thorium in there, to much to not enough i dont know, im sure this is about economics. Ps usa if you are still reading this you will turn the economics upside down if you know how to use thorium !, nudge nuge, wink wink !
In another video I saw that promotes molten salt nuclear reactors, they mentioned that thorium, the main fuel needed for these reactors, is commonly found with these rare earth elements.
The single largest problem with rare earth extraction is thorium - very slightly radioactive and _SHOULD_ be a valuable nuclear fuel. They can be used in LFTR designs. The hard part is "disposing" of the thorium - and the odd part is that if we developed LFTR reactors then "Rare earth" mines would be thorium mines with rare earths as a side business. Thank Richard Nixon for killing research into this in 1973
They are pushed as the new enemy now. It will eventually trickle down to all sorts of media outlets run by people who are influenced by the constant hammering on china. Is to be expected.
Kinda what happens when they restrict exports of essential materials they have control of because...well...they can and want the rest of the world to bow to their new-found economic power. Not exactly a friendly move. If they were smart, they would have quietly increased their monopoly instead of instigating a worldwide search for alternative sources.
@@grantsmith791 i think they have. Chinese plan ahead and far. I think a lot of these mines are own by them and im refering not on chinese ground but other nations. Even in the states there are mines that are owned by chinese companies.

"As China clamps down further on their exports, they've begun to tip the scales against themselves and have made rare earth mining and processing profitable outside of their borders, which is why we see so many countries just beginning to develop their own deposits. China has even tried to purchase and control mines outside of their borders in attempts to keep control over the industry. But, like at the end of Black Panther, this control might change soon. " Good work!
Great comic book science. Reality is Monazite deposits (rare earth ore) cover vast beaches in India and Brazil and also found in 11 US states. California had a RE mine with more Europium (used in tube color TV sets). China deposits like those in Africa yields other metals which defrays RE mining costs.
Make video about how the different charges, positive, negative, and neutral affect our planet, please make highly advanced video, like an video essay for pHd. I think it might be most important subject for humanity to study.
This video didn't mention that Sweden is the country that found many rare elements before like 200 years, in a village called Ytterby or smthin like that. The production of them is what is very hard and only China can profit, because the prices of them dropped, China took the monopoly
So the one country I expected to see: Sweden, is not a rare earth exporter? Yet the elements are caled Holmium (named after Stockholm) Scandium (named after Scandinavia) and Yttrium, Yterbium, Terbium and Erbium are all named after the Yterby mine near Stockholm.
We have plenty of rare Earth elements in the US, only issue is mines are shut down because they tend to be accompanied by Thorium, which if US politicians didn't have shit for brains, would be being used in molten salt reactors to make safe abundant electricity, but since they don't make weapons grade plutonium US politicians prefer unsafe light water reactors prone to melt down and other safety hazards and also burning rare U-235 which has to be isotopically enhanced unlike thorium which has only one isotope and it's all useful, but hey.
All those rare things we might invent,talk about and think but in reality lot of life's on the risk if such new technology would appear or cure that can heal deadly disease like hypotitis,diabetes,hiv and more...Imagine how much trillion of dollars per day all pharmaceutical corporations would loose???This can boost human race and take into new future and governments won't let that happen by any means necessary,restricting firearms and confiscating private properties is only first step of their goal,there is much more problems than anyone can suspect governments around the world plotting..
He doesn't seem to know much about Canadian provinces either. He says REE were found in Ontario and Quebec, specifically in Hoidas lakes. Only problem is Hoidas lake is 1000km from Ontario in the province of Saskatchewan lol.
this is important to our country and for National Security this rare array of material found on our Resevations which we have used in our food and to be used in our Technology hopeful to be for peaceful purposes we live for our Earth also know the good in saving both Mother Earth and Mankind. not for the economy....Mytaka Oyocin
The Mountain Pass Mine is still open, it was bought out, they only mine there, all the refining capacity is in China due to environmental constraints not know how.

Like you said, rare earths are not rare and they are spread all over the world. Every mine can be converted to rare earth production in addition to the production of whatever they are already mining. Gold, Silver, Copper, Nickel, uranium, thorium, cobalt, silicon, and all the rest. It is just a matter of going through the steps to remove the metals from the ore.
If there is a will there is a way.
We need to make as environmentally friendly as possible mines outside the US and then rely on chemistry to get the elements out of the rock and supplying energy from alternative energy sources. Even the alternative energy needs those elements to happen especially with solar, wind, battery, and electric car. We can also recover the elements from used end of life electronics. Be sure to use the proper balanced chemical equation for each reaction.
Nice.
Make such video of other metals also.
can't it be recycled from already built products ?
yes and we do that already
@@EvanHT
share the tech then ?!?!...for some profit ie.
Amazing video and I loved it. He merged two different takes at 5:23. Not sure if anyone else caught that. Nothing wrong with it. Just mentioning that I noticed (;
Shhhhhh
thanks man
*Rare Elements are everywhere*
If someone finds there is back door in the RE will US ban RE import the same way for Huawei products.
Imagine how many elements are in the Oceanic crusts or Zealandia.
Mid Lane Only that’s why I’m an aspiring marine biologist😈
1:36 - That's a really outdated copy of the Periodic Table. Elements up to 118 have been synthesised, now have official names. Check the Periodic Videos channel for the names, if you're interested.
NONESENSE, rare earths are found in many places the only problem is, is that the us decided to get all there metals from one place China, but dont you worry old mines will reopen soon. all because the us of a dont want China to have a monopoly here, ps while you are at it usa, perhaps you can find some purpose for all the Thorium you are digging up with all that rare earth ?
Last i heared you had some project in oakridge, to make good use of that stuff !
everywhere you mine rare earth there will be thorium in there, to much to not enough i dont know, im sure this is about economics.
Ps usa if you are still reading this you will turn the economics upside down if you know how to use thorium !, nudge nuge, wink wink !
Maybe try using constructive critisism and don't just scream at him.
@@cuntianna hahaha
China is trying to decrease its pollution, so if any country wants those pollutions they would be happy to see that
In another video I saw that promotes molten salt nuclear reactors, they mentioned that thorium, the main fuel needed for these reactors, is commonly found with these rare earth elements.
wakanda is real if u talk abt vabranium... hahahaha...
wa china kan da forever
5:26 TRUMPF :)
What are your sources? Where did you obtain these facts?
The single largest problem with rare earth extraction is thorium - very slightly radioactive and _SHOULD_ be a valuable nuclear fuel. They can be used in LFTR designs.
The hard part is "disposing" of the thorium - and the odd part is that if we developed LFTR reactors then "Rare earth" mines would be thorium mines with rare earths as a side business.
Thank Richard Nixon for killing research into this in 1973
Virbranium was in the MCU way before Black Panther tf?
Who said Black Panther introduced vibranium?? Not me.
Gotta use a reference the audience would know. thats why
Feeling a bit of anti china from this video on rare earth metal.
They are pushed as the new enemy now. It will eventually trickle down to all sorts of media outlets run by people who are influenced by the constant hammering on china.
Is to be expected.
Kinda what happens when they restrict exports of essential materials they have control of because...well...they can and want the rest of the world to bow to their new-found economic power. Not exactly a friendly move.
If they were smart, they would have quietly increased their monopoly instead of instigating a worldwide search for alternative sources.
@@grantsmith791 i think they have. Chinese plan ahead and far. I think a lot of these mines are own by them and im refering not on chinese ground but other nations. Even in the states there are mines that are owned by chinese companies.
@@baronvonlimbourgh1716 the are made the enemy by butt hurt white americans. Americans do not like to be #2 but because china leap forward in telecom tech with 5G made the US look like a lame duck.
@@hvuu1628 americans hate competition in general though. And someone chalenging them as a country hurts their pride and is a deadly sin that needs to be punished.
It's gonna get ugly...
Unobtainium is from a mine the Wolfman owns in the woods of New Hampshire near Clark's Trading Post in the town of Lincoln.
Smith & Wesson makes Scandium frame revolvers and handguns
He absolutely butchers the pronunciation of Zhengzhou LOL! "Jung-Joe" is closer to the real way to say it.
"As China clamps down further on their exports, they've begun to tip the scales against themselves and have made rare earth mining and processing profitable outside of their borders, which is why we see so many countries just beginning to develop their own deposits. China has even tried to purchase and control mines outside of their borders in attempts to keep control over the industry. But, like at the end of Black Panther, this control might change soon.
"
Good work!
The vibrating elements made me feel anxious.
Great comic book science. Reality is Monazite deposits (rare earth ore) cover vast beaches in India and Brazil and also found in 11 US states. California had a RE mine with more Europium (used in tube color TV sets). China deposits like those in Africa yields other metals which defrays RE mining costs.
Isn't Neodymium used as magnets in high end speakers on headphones?
You make quality videos ... keep it up
Where is the nice landscape with the white rocks that we see at 8:50?
wind turbine: ummm, are you guys ok...
everyone: *no*
Forgive my ignorance, but would asteroid mining be a potential source?
so ya think mining an asteroid is more cost effective than here on earth? ya thats pretty ignorant lol
vibranium has been in Marvel for a long time before black panther. its what caps shield is made of.
Make video about how the different charges, positive, negative, and neutral affect our planet, please make highly advanced video, like an video essay for pHd. I think it might be most important subject for humanity to study.
This video didn't mention that Sweden is the country that found many rare elements before like 200 years, in a village called Ytterby or smthin like that. The production of them is what is very hard and only China can profit, because the prices of them dropped, China took the monopoly
Good video, ty. And recently japan discovered a rare element mine, that got enough reserve to japan for 600 years, as i know
So rare earth elements are everywhere. The headline should read rare earth elements are mostly mined in China..
So the one country I expected to see: Sweden, is not a rare earth exporter? Yet the elements are caled Holmium (named after Stockholm) Scandium (named after Scandinavia) and Yttrium, Yterbium, Terbium and Erbium are all named after the Yterby mine near Stockholm.
We have plenty of rare Earth elements in the US, only issue is mines are shut down because they tend to be accompanied by Thorium, which if US politicians didn't have shit for brains, would be being used in molten salt reactors to make safe abundant electricity, but since they don't make weapons grade plutonium US politicians prefer unsafe light water reactors prone to melt down and other safety hazards and also burning rare U-235 which has to be isotopically enhanced unlike thorium which has only one isotope and it's all useful, but hey.
All those rare things we might invent,talk about and think but in reality lot of life's on the risk if such new technology would appear or cure that can heal deadly disease like hypotitis,diabetes,hiv and more...Imagine how much trillion of dollars per day all pharmaceutical corporations would loose???This can boost human race and take into new future and governments won't let that happen by any means necessary,restricting firearms and confiscating private properties is only first step of their goal,there is much more problems than anyone can suspect governments around the world plotting..
So you're saying that most electronics already contain these elements? Sounds to me like it's not that rare then, we just need to learn to... RECYCLE?
two videos n i already like this guy's presentation
Your favourite simulation theory is bunk for many more reasons than the calculation of Pi...
Tell your video editor/compositor/what-ever to chill with the shaking graphics!
One problem here, the locations of the provinces at 5:11 are completely wrong. Sichuan took over half of Yunnan lol
He doesn't seem to know much about Canadian provinces either. He says REE were found in Ontario and Quebec, specifically in Hoidas lakes. Only problem is Hoidas lake is 1000km from Ontario in the province of Saskatchewan lol.
BOOTYLIUM... Is more important than food and drinking water. Discovered by Fleece Johnson back in the 70s in the Kentucky State Penitentiary.
Do you recommend any websites or publications on this topic? I want to learn more.
How about the Philippines?
this is important to our country and for National Security this rare array of material found on our Resevations which we have used in our food and to be used in our Technology hopeful to be for peaceful purposes we live for our Earth also know the good in saving both Mother Earth and Mankind. not for the economy....Mytaka Oyocin
The Mountain Pass Mine is still open, it was bought out, they only mine there, all the refining capacity is in China due to environmental constraints not know how.
Hey hey you didn't add to your list somalia rare earth elements diposits holding more then what China holding
Somalia has Pluddium platinum iridium vaniduam naibium tantalum cobalt rhodium rubidium yttrium californium francium germanium scandium cadmium you name it every thing with large diposits at very very masive diposits
