The REE Basket Price Deception and the Clarity of OPEX

​Anyone familiar with the rare earth element (REE) space will have undoubtedly heard the term ‘REE basket price’. It is a common and highly promoted deposit metric, and one that is most often associated with disclosure of heavy REE (HREE) enriched deposits. However, there is a prevalence of misunderstanding, by management teams and investors alike as to what the term actually denotes and, perhaps more importantly, how it should be applied.
