The US Mountain Pass mine in California is operational. They send all of the output to China for processing. That will change in a few years as the US brings new domestic processing facilities online. The US chemical company, Blue Line Corp, has partnered with Australia's Lynas to build a facility in Texas. They're forecasting two years from now to have it running. That facility should enable the most critical / sensitive domestic demand to become entirely independent of China.
