Common methods:

The reduction reaction of carbon, carbon monoxide, hydrogen and other reducing agents with metal oxides at high temperature is carried out to obtain the metal simple substance.

Domestic prospects:

There are more than 200 enterprises engaged in rare earth mining, smelting and separation in China. They have been able to produce more than 400 kinds and nearly 1000 specifications of rare earth products, such as single rare earth oxide, single rare earth metal, rare earth salts, rare earth alloys, rare earth functional materials, etc., and they are continuously extending to high added value, refined, deep processed products and downstream application products. With the rapid development of China's new materials, military industry, aerospace, new energy vehicles and other industries, rare earth metal smelting industry has a bright future.
