Lynas and US miner Molycorp Inc have had their production stalled by the challenges of running environmentally safe, complex chemical plants. ON top of that, prices of the products have, meanwhile, slumped after China's export curbs scared manufacturers who need the metals into finding ways to reduce their use.

PETALING JAYA: The Government will be setting up two inquiries to probe Lynas Corporation's processing of rare earths in Kuantan, Pahang, according to an Australian news report.

The Special Broadcasting Service (SBS News) on Wednesday (Aug 22) quoted Bentong MP Wong Tack as saying that two inquiries into Lynas, one parliamentary and one in the executive branch would begin in the "very near future".
