Rare Earths,
schon mal kurz im Uran Aktien Thread diskutiert.
Sehr heiss wird aus meiner Sicht die Lynas Aktie. Soeben haben Sie in Malaysia die Genehmigungen erhalten inkl. einer 12 Jahren steuerfreie Export Garantie, was Lynas zu einem der billigsten Anbieter machen wird. Start der Produktion ist in gut 1,5 Jahren.
