I had thought there was a shortage of rare earth metal deposits... but it seems that it's a shortage of processing facilities. I feel that tasmania (the triangular island at the bottom of australia) has incredible deposits of everything else, and so would probably include rare earths - but if we (australians) don't have the processing facilities, it doesn't really help. Otherwise it would be a good investment.
