Mining Thursday, November 5, 2026 - Updated Nov 5, 2026 18:14

MP Materials reported third quarter revenue of $147.7 million, up 176 percent from a year earlier, with NdPr production up 41 percent to 1,018 metric tons and sales up 94 percent to 1,020 metric tons.

Why it matters: The quarter pairs the US price protection agreement's first income with the completion of General Motors magnet qualification, the step that moves MP Materials from selling rare earth materials into selling finished magnets.

Data as of MP Materials' results release for the quarter ended September 30, 2026, published November 5, 2026 via Business Wire and read in full in this run; all figures are the company's own. The Mining Weekly item that surfaced the results in the feed pool could not be opened on either of two routes (its Google News redirect failed), so this item is written from the company's release itself. Developing item.
