  • USA Rare Earth Surges 30% in 2026 with Heavy Rare-Earth Focus
    January 26, 2026, 12:02 AM EST. USA Rare Earth (USAR) rose over 30% in 2026, attracting attention as a U.S.-based rare-earth miner focused on heavy rare earth elements like dysprosium and terbium from its Round Top deposit in Texas. Unlike MP Materials, which emphasizes light rare earths and already has a $400 million Defense Dept. contract, USA Rare Earth aims to build a full mine-to-magnet supply chain for high-performance magnets. It expects to complete its first magnet factory in early 2026 and begin mining in 2028. Currently a pre-revenue company valued at about $3.7 billion, USA Rare Earth carries risks due to its early stage, but if it scales production as planned, it could meet growing U.S. demand for rare-earth magnets used in electronics and devices.
