Pretty cool, I dig rare earth minerals. The main issue I see is that Japan was devoting quite a bit of time and resources to finding ways to replace rare earth minerals with new design/more common materials so they would not have to be at China's whim which is better than relying on rare earths. Of course the the more in demand minerals neodymium and samarium where not among the mentioned cache so work on lessening usage of those will likely continue.
