Vital Metals (ASX: VML) is Canada’s first – and North America’s second – rare earths miner, commencing mining at our Nechalacho Project in 2021. We aim to become the world’s first producer of commercial quantities of light and heavy rare earths.

Our first mining campaign at Nechalacho’s North T Zone is complete as part of our Stage 1 production strategy.

In our Stage 2 plans at Nechalacho, we aim to develop the Tardiff deposit to build a larger scale, longer life rare earths project.

We want to become the lowest cost producer of mixed rare earth oxide outside of China by developing one of the highest grade rare earth deposits in the world and the only rare earth project capable of beneficiation solely by ore sorting.

Our other projects include the high-grade Wigu Hill rare earth resource in Tanzania.
