It has been reaffirmed that American investors remain unenthusiastic about funding rare metal projects in Africa, despite their strategic importance for reducing dependence on China, which controls most of the global supply chains for this sector. American institution investments have reached approximately $62.8 million, with a significant focus on the Valabura project in South Africa. However, most of this funding has not yet entered the production phase. This reflects investor hesitation due to high risks and potential Chinese interference that threatens market stability.

The greatest challenge remains building domestic production capacities and overcoming Chinese dominance, especially amid declining American investments and increasing Chinese influence in the market.
