Notes to Editors
Rainbow's focus is the Gakara Project in Burundi, one of the
highest-grade (47-67% Total Rare Earth Oxide) rare earths projects
globally. In January 2017, the Company raised US$8 million to
fast-track the fully permitted Gakara Project to production ahead
of targeted first sales of concentrate by the end of 2017. Rainbow
has a ten-year distribution and offtake agreement with
multinational thyssenkrupp Raw Materials secured for the sale of at
least 5,000 tpa of concentrate produced. The Gakara basket is
weighted heavily towards the magnet rare earths, including
neodymium and praseodymium, which are driving demand and account
for 70% of annual global REE sales due to their use in vital
components in motors, generators, wind turbines, and electric
vehicles.
