There is a need for Canada to bring some of these mine proposals into production. It's going to take a couple of years.
The movement of rare earth around the world today is fairly small. It's a very strategic area as it relates to clean technology, defence technology, and communications, but the movement is still fairly small. I think there is a need for Canada to bring some of these mines into production.
The U.S. is facing the same kind of issue, as are some European countries. There's some concern that the flow of this today is largely controlled by the Chinese. It's not just rare earth. You see it with some other minerals as well. There are some Chinese export constraints on various minerals. There's an effort to control as much of the mineral flow within your own country as possible. We're certainly seeing that in China in a number of areas.
