Shares of USA Rare Earth<\/a> jumped in extended trading Thursday, after CEO Barbara Humpton told CNBC that the rare earth miner is “in close communcation” with the White House.<\/p>\n

Humpton’s comment comes after the Trump administration took a 5% equity stake<\/a> in Lithium Americas<\/a> this week. The Defense Department took a 15% stake<\/a> in rare earth miner MP Materials<\/a> in July.<\/p>\n

“We are in close communication with the administration,” Humpton told CNBC’s Morgan Brennan when asked whether USA Rare Earth was interested in a deal with the Trump administration.<\/p>\n

USA Rare Earth shares were last up about 6% after hours. Its stock gained 23% in regular trading Thursday and has nearly doubled this year.<\/p>\n

“This is a field where it will not be a zero sum game,” Humpton said of the rare earth supply chain. “It’s going to take a lot of players to build out this marketplace.”<\/p>\n

USA Rare Earth is developing a mine in Sierra Blanca, Texas, and a magnet production facility in Stillwater, Oklahoma. Humpton said she supports the Trump administration’s deals with MP and Lithium Americas.<\/p>\n

“What we’re doing is keeping the administration informed of our own plans,” she said.<\/p>\n

The adminstration has said it is making the investments<\/a> to help support the industry and break U.S. dependence on China. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Shares of USA Rare Earth jumped in extended trading Thursday, after CEO Barbara Humpton told CNBC that the…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":469649,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5311],"tags":[4959,3085,35,156392,156391,2441,88535,49,978,659],"class_list":{"0":"post-469648","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-united-states","8":"tag-breaking-news-markets","9":"tag-business-news","10":"tag-energy","11":"tag-inflection-point-acquisition-corp-ii","12":"tag-lithium-americas-corp","13":"tag-markets","14":"tag-mp-materials-corp","15":"tag-united-states","16":"tag-us","17":"tag-usa"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115307183636213173","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/469648","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=469648"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/469648\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/469649"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=469648"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=469648"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=469648"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
