The Mt Weld Central Lanthanide Deposit (CLD) is one of the highest grade rare earth deposits in the world. Mt Weld also hosts the undeveloped Duncan (rare earth), Crown (niobium, tantalum, titanium, rare earths, zirconium) and Swan (phosphate) deposits.
Lynas processes the CLD ore at the Mt Weld Concentration Plant to produce a rare earth concentrate that is sent for further processing at Lynas Malaysia’s Advanced Material Plant near Kuantan, Malaysia.
The Mt Weld expansion will target feedstock production capacity of 12,000 tonnes per annum NdPr equivalent in 2024. Further capacity expansion in existing upstream and downstream production together with growth options for 2025 and beyond are being developed. |
