Praseodymium (Pr)
75,000 tonnes of probable reserves at the Venezuelan REE deposit. Neodymium's inseparable partner in high-power magnetic alloys and an essential component of next-generation electric motors.
The NdPr (didymium) blend is the direct feedstock for the most powerful permanent magnets on Earth. Adding praseodymium improves demagnetization resistance at high temperatures — indispensable for EV motors operating under extreme thermal stress.
Reserve Valuation
At current oxide prices (~$100/kg for Pr₆O₁₁), the 75,000 tonnes of probable praseodymium reserves at the Venezuelan REE deposit represent an estimated in-ground value of $7.5 billion USD. As the NdPr (didymium) market grows with EV adoption, praseodymium value tracks closely with neodymium.
Neodymium's Partner
Praseodymium is rarely traded alone — its value lies in the NdPr blend (didymium), which is the direct feedstock for the most powerful permanent magnets on the planet. Adding praseodymium to neodymium improves demagnetization resistance at high temperatures, making it indispensable for EV motors operating under extreme thermal stress.
