IPOH: The processing of the rare earth metal lanthanide could be done domestically if the mining project at Hulu Perak is approved, says Datuk Seri Saarani Mohamad.
"There are various opinions about lanthanide, but since it is non-radioactive, we are considering processing the element once the project starts.
“In the long term, if the project is approved, the plant will open doors for high-tech industry while boosting R&D as well as innovation,” he said.Saarani said minerals are an important source of revenue for Peraj. “Based on our data, the mineral sector recorded a total revenue of RM238,163,243.80 from 2019 to last year,” he said.
