Rare Earth minerals/elements are now an important part of many of the items we rely on, including our phones, other electronics, batteries, and even renewable energy technologies such as wind turbines, and solar panels. How many rare earth minerals are you familiar with, where are they found, and what are they specifically used for? The following list includes some of the most commonly used rare Earth metals. Select one and research, provide an informative post with as much information about your selected rare Earth mineral/element as you can find. As you read and respond to your classmates' posts be sure to cover all of the minerals/elements on the list by providing a contrast/compare response using one that was not selected. As you research your selected material, note that the people who work and mine these materials are often at risk for toxic and hazardous exposures, environmental degradation, poor working conditions, and low pay. If you were assured that their environment and working conditions were improved, would you be willing to pay more for the items made from your selected material?
