Global Rare Earth Metals Market Overview
The global rare earth metals market size was valued at USD 3 billion by 2019, and is estimated to reach USD 18 billion with a prominent CAGR of 14% during the forecast period of 2021-2027. The key drivers impacting the rare earth metals market is the rising demand for these products in the manufacturing of magnets & catalysts for the ever-expanding automotive industry. According to International Organization of Motor vehicle manufacturers (OICA), in 2019, sales of passenger cars increased by about 5% and reached 69.5 million units. Similarly, the commercial vehicles segment showed a steady rise as the sales touching 24 million units in 2019.
In addition to this, the growing demand for electric vehicles to reduce CO2 emissions and supportive government policies across the globe is anticipated to increase the rare earth metals market demand under the forecast period. According to IEA, Electric cars, account for 2.6% of global car sales and about it registered a 40% year-on-year rise. Sales of electric cars recorded 2.1 million worldwide in 2019, surpassing 2018. Rare earth metals such as neodymium & praseodymium are majorly utilized in the production of batteries for electric vehicles.
The high adoption of rare earth metals for various industrial applications such as catalyst, battery, metallurgy, glass ceramics, and others is also estimated to be a key determinant adding growth to the market. Also, the current trend of using hi-tech electric vehicles and hybrid vehicles at the global level is considered as the key factor that is positively impacting the market. However, the disparity in supply and demand and fluctuating prices may hamper the global rare earth metals industry in the long run. Also, the Illegal mining activities in rare earth metal ores are likely to restrict market growth. The current industry trends show the growing focus towards recycling and reuse of rare earth metals and high prospects for electrification in transport in the coming decade are creating new market opportunities for the key players.
The rare earth metals market is vast, with a large number of local and global players. The key leaders follow various strategies to improve their market position, such as mergers, acquisitions, expansions, and improved quality products at the best prices to enhance their market share across the world. For instance, Arafura Resources in November 2019 announced about constructing a separation plant for its Nolans Neodymium-Praseodymium (NdPr) Project. It is the only Australian-domiciled NdPr-focused project that extracts and processes rare earth ore to extremely refined separated REO products. The report studies a few key players of the global rare earth metals market in detail, covering the company profile, product list, and financial information. The dominating key players included in the report are Iluka Resources Limited, Lynas Corporation, Ltd., Northern Minerals Limited, Alkane Resources Ltd, Arafura Resources Ltd., Canada Rare Earth Corporation, China Minmetals Rare Earth Co. Ltd, Indian Rare Earths Limited, Neo Performance Materials Inc., Avalon Rare Metals, Great Western Minerals Group Ltd always been the initial targets of rare earth metals companies and many others.
In this market research report, the market is segmented by applications, type, and region.
Analysis By Applications
By applications, the report is categorized into permanent magnets, metal alloys, polishing, glass, additives, catalysts, phosphors, ceramics and others. A magnet dominates the application segment in 2019 with maximum market share of 30% in terms of volume as well as revenue.It is expected to maintain its dominancy over the forecast period because of its widespread usage in computer hard disc drives, linear actuators, servo motors, speakers & headphones, and sensors. Moreover, the growing demands for magnets in automobiles, turbines, and consumer electronics driving the magnet application segment.
Analysis By Type
By type, the report is categorized into lanthanum, cerium, praseodymium, neodymium, samarium, europium, gadolinium, terbium, dysprosium, yttrium, and others. Cerium and lanthanum dominate the type segment in 2019 with a maximum market share of 50%. Scandium is expected to experience the fastest growth over the forecast period and accounts for over 30% market share in 2019. It is due to the low price of Lanthanum and cerium than other oxides that lead to extensively used in modern technologies, such as the manufacturing of catalytic converters used for automobiles and batteries for electric vehicles. Moreover, Cerium and lanthanum catalysts are increasingly utilized in petroleum refining to convert crude oil into gasoline.
Analysis By Region
In the regional outlook of the global rare earth metals market, Asia pacific dominates with over two-thirds of shares in 2019. Asia Pacific region is the significant region globally driving the market share over a forecast period. The rapidly growing demand in China and its dominancy in supplying rare earth elements China is the single dominant supplier of the rare earth elements are the primary growth factors contributing at a regional level. The APAC market is anticipated to record considerable growth during the forecast period due to the presence of the biggest rare earth reserve coupled with major rare earth metal processors and consumers in the region.
