JV Video: The hidden foundation – how rare earths built the modern world

The technologies shaping the future all rely on a single, fragile link: rare earth elements (REEs). These 17 metals are obscure to most — but together, they form the hidden foundation of modern life. REEs are critical components in powerful permanent magnets, electronics, and green technologies that drive the digital and energy transitions. 

In this first episode of a four-part series that explores the rare earth industry, we’ll uncover how rare earths became essential to the modern world, who controls their production and why it matters.

We examine how new projects in the West are working to challenge China’s dominance, and where the next generation of exploration and investment opportunities is emerging. Together, these stories reveal the race to secure the materials that will define the balance of power in the decades ahead.
