An article on Investorintel that makes the case for REE demand to increase if supply is more secure.

And a mention by Robin Bromby of Peak at the Africa Down Under Conference.

"Peak Resources (ASX:PEK) told the conference it was planning rare earth production by 2016. Technical Director, Dave Hammond, said the company’s 100%-owned Ngualla Rare Earth Project distinguished itself from other rare earth projects in the world due to its lower capital and operating costs, and low risk due to a proven three stage metallurgical route it had developed. Mr Hammond said Peak was committed to developing the project – which has mineral resources of 195 million tonnes, and is one of the largest and highest grade rare earth deposits in the world – to become a low cost, long term rare earth producer. “A pre-feasibility study is currently in progress which is due for completion early next year, after which we will go to the definitive feasibility stage during 2014. Under current time-frames, we will then undertake engineering and design work with the aim of commencing construction in late 2015, followed by maiden production in late 2016,” he added."
