Breaking Beijing's Grip: How ASX Rare Earth Giants Are Rewriting Global Supply Chains
China's stranglehold on rare earth processing—controlling 90% of global capacity—faces its biggest challenge yet as the Pentagon invests $400 million in American rare earth independence and ASX companies deliver explosive quarterly gains up to 134%. This episode explores how Beijing weaponised critical minerals through December 2024 export bans on gallium and germanium, followed by April 2025 restrictions on seven rare earth elements essential for military applications—from F-35 fighter jets to missile guidance systems.
We analyse four ASX leaders capitalising on this geopolitical shift: Metallium's revolutionary Flash Joule Heating technology enabling US critical metals recovery, Victory Metals' massive Australian heavy rare earth resource attracting US government backing, Lynas breaking China's processing monopoly with first dysprosium production outside Beijing, and Green Critical Minerals' diversified critical minerals platform. With quarterly returns ranging from 29% to 134% and government funding reaching unprecedented levels, these companies are literally rebuilding the technological foundation of Western military and economic independence from Chinese supply chains.
