Got any "rare earth" metal plays?

Just read a big article about them in National Geographic Magazine. Didn't know that China supplies 60% of the rare earth metals for the world...Now, they are supposedly cutting back exports and keeping more for themselves. A lot of cell phones are made with rare earth metals...so, maybe a little less margin coming for those. Interesting article.

Here's a link to the Nat Geo article:
