China supplies at least 95 per cent of the world's rare earths - 17 chemical elements with hard-to-pronounce names such as praseo-dymium and yttrium - essential for a wide range of high-tech devices and green technologies.
The experiments showed that yttrium in trace amounts - less than 1 microgram per milliliter of water - may disrupt normal calcium signalling in neurons and other electrically active cells, an amount far lower than what had been thought to be safe levels.
“More significantly for Ucore, Beijing has stipulated that the heavy rare earths (HREE's) dysprosium, terbium, thulium, lutetium and yttrium will not just be cut back, but will be fully prohibited from export under the new REE Plan,” says the company.
