Royalty Management Holding Corporation has secured an equity option in NeoRe SpA's La Marigen rare earth project, strategically positioning the company in the rapidly expanding critical minerals market. The project, located 50 miles north of Concepciòn, Chile, encompasses five license areas and over 56,300 acres of mining rights with significant rare earth element deposits.
The La Marigen project contains valuable heavy rare earth elements including Terbium, Dysprosium, Praseodymium, and Neodymium. These minerals are crucial for emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence data centers, electric vehicles, renewable energy infrastructure, and advanced defense systems.
Global demand for rare earth elements is projected to surge dramatically in the coming decades. The International Energy Agency estimates that rare earth element demand could increase three to seven times by 2040, with the United States rare earth magnet market expected to quadruple by 2050. Market projections suggest the global rare earth metals market will grow from $6.2 billion in 2024 to $16.1 billion by 2034.
NeoRe has also signed a letter of intent with ReElement Technologies Corporation to incorporate localized processing and refining capabilities, enhancing the project's commercial viability. This partnership addresses critical supply chain diversification efforts, particularly in reducing dependence on China's dominant rare earth production.
Thomas Sauve, CEO of Royalty Management, emphasized the strategic importance of the investment, noting the project's meaningful rare earth mineral composition and alignment with the company's broader investment strategy in critical resource sectors. The partnership represents a significant step in developing alternative rare earth supply sources outside traditional markets.
