MINING 2: RARE EARTHS

The second part of the mining week in ACCIONA's COLECTIVO CRÍTICO will relate mainly on RARE EARTH and its value in today's world. The methodology for this part of the course, will be more active, since you will have to look up the videos and articles we've chosen for you and comment about them in class with your instructor.

See if you can add anything to it and bring it to class. Any thing, an article, a video, a radio excerpt. Whatever you find interesting from the web.

You can check for these reference websites and videos over here:
