MP Materials Corp. (MP) surged 5.02% during intraday trading on Wednesday, outperforming the broader market as rare-earth shares rallied.
The gains followed news that Critical Metals Corp. has approved the start of construction for a multi-use storage and pilot plant facility in Qaqortoq, Greenland. This development supports the Tanbreez rare-earth and critical metals project, signaling progress in the sector. MP Materials, as the only integrated U.S. rare-earth company, benefited from the positive sentiment.
