On Thursday, The Epoch Times<\/a> posted an article about one impact of America’s treaty with Denmark regarding Greenland.<\/p>\n

The article reports:<\/p>\n

Days after President Donald Trump announced a security agreement with Greenland and Denmark, Greenland Mines applied on Sept. 21 to double the size of its rare earth mine to supply magnet metals needed for electric vehicles, wind turbines, and defense systems on the island.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The North Carolina-based company\u2019s Sarfartoq rare earth district in southwest Greenland would expand from 74 square miles to about 175 square miles if approved.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThis application is about building Sarfartoq at district scale,\u201d said Bo Moller Stensgaard, president of Greenland Mines in a statement.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Greenland Mines is developing a rare earth neodymium and praseodymium project that could reduce the Western Hemisphere\u2019s dependence on China for the magnet rare earth minerals. China-based processors control<\/a> at least 75 percent of the global market for all rare earth elements.<\/strong><\/div>\n

The Greenland Mines project is expected to produce about one-third of the world\u2019s neodymium-praseodymium oxide refined outside of China, serving as a key source of the rare earth ingredients needed for energy, transportation, and defense technologies.<\/strong><\/p>\n

China\u2019s export restrictions on rare earths have driven prices up in the past year. The Trump administration has focused on supporting and investing in domestic rare earth operations, but a supply of ore is still needed, according to Greenland Mines.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Greenland Energy, a privately owned Texas company, has an agreement to drill on the Jameson oil and gas project in the Jameson Land Basin on the eastern coast of Greenland. The company, founded in 2025, began shipping drilling equipment to Greenland in late July.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Critical Metals Corp. is developing the Tanbreez Rare Earth Project in southern Greenland\u2014one of the world\u2019s largest deposits with a high concentration of heavy rare-earth elements.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The company\u2019s Romanian refinery is also expected to process about 28,000 tons per year of rare earth and critical metal products, including 26,000 tons of high-purity silicon dioxide powder, or silica, used in food, pharmaceuticals, paints, plastics, rubber, ceramics, tech, and electronics.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Our dependence on China for critical supplies during the past few decades was not smart. Moving our sourcing of critical rare earth and metal products to countries that share our values is a really good idea.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
