Price Trends of Rare Earth Products in July 2025

I. Analysis of China’s Rare Earth Price Trends in July 2025

According to CTIA GROUP LTD, the price trends of mainstream light and heavy rare earth products in China in July 2025 showed pergence: praseodymium-neodymium prices continued the upward trend from June, with an overall faster rate of increase than in June; dysprosium-terbium prices rose initially and then declined, with the increase and decrease roughly balancing each other.

In July, the price of praseodymium oxide increased by approximately 17.67%, neodymium oxide by approximately 19.47%, praseodymium-neodymium oxide by approximately 19.78%, and praseodymium-neodymium metal by approximately 18.13%.

In the light rare earth market, the prices of praseodymium-neodymium products exhibited a fluctuating upward trend in July due to multiple factors. Specifically, the strategic importance of rare earths as a resource has become increasingly prominent, with Northern Rare Earth raising the transaction prices of rare earth concentrates in the third quarter, and the competitive bidding for praseodymium-neodymium metal remaining active. At the same time, rare earth manufacturers face significant production challenges, with most industry insiders optimistic about future prospects, compounded by the current peak consumption season for rare earth permanent magnet materials. Against this backdrop, the prices of rare earth permanent magnet materials and their waste materials have also risen.

In the medium and heavy rare earth market, prices of dysprosium and terbium saw a slight increase in the first half of the month, supported by strong production costs and high downstream inquiry interest. However, in the latter half, as product prices reached higher levels and downstream production companies faced tight liquidity, suppliers’ quotes began to return to rationality, leading to a downward adjustment trend.
