RE:RE:RE:China grabbed more REE projects The other thing is that the Chinese have been active in working with and investing into projects that do not really make economic sense, and this is another aspect of them essentially taking a “loss leader” such as Mountain Pass in California – this project is not economic as it is, and the production from this mine goes back to China for processing – supplying that downstream manufacturing that the Chinese needs to keep supplied at all costs.
