The rare-earth elements, also called the rare-earth metals or (in context) rare-earth oxides, or the lanthanides (though yttrium and scandium are usually included as rare-earths) are a set of 17 nearly-indistinguishable lustrous silvery-white soft heavy metals. Scandium and yttrium are considered rare-earth elements because they tend to occur in the same ore deposits as the lanthanides and ...

Japan and the U.S. are by far the largest importers, collectively accounting for more than two-thirds of China's rare earth metals exports. Lanthanum, found in hybrid vehicles and smartphones, was China's largest rare earth export by volume, followed by cerium.In dollar terms, terbium was the most expensive—generating $57.9 million from just 115 metric tons of exports.
