RAW MATERIALS🇨🇳 CNChokepoint

China refines roughly 85% of the world's rare-earth elements, making it the dominant chokepoint for neodymium (Nd) and dysprosium (Dy) — the elements that go into the permanent magnets used in precision wafer-stage actuators and spindle motors inside lithography and etch equipment. Export licensing requirements introduced in 2023 give Beijing direct leverage over the global semiconductor equipment supply chain.
