(“Sprott”) (NYSE/TSX: SII) today announced the launch of the Sprott Rare Earths Ex-China ETF (Nasdaq: REXC) (the “ETF” or “REXC”), the only1 ETF providing focused exposure to rare earths companies outside of China.  Rare earth elements are critical inputs for advanced technologies across defense systems, artificial intelligence, data centers, semiconductors, electric vehicles and energy infrastructure. With China dominating global rare earths mining, refining and magnet production — and increasingly using that dominance as a geopolitical lever — secure, diversified supply chains have become a national security priority for the U.S. and its allies.  “Rare earths sit at the intersection of national security, energy security and technological leadership,” said Steve Schoffstall, Managing Partner, Head of ETFs at Sprott. “As governments in developed countries accelerate efforts to secure non-China supply chains, we believe companies operating outside China across the rare earths value chain are strategically positioned. REXC offers investors a targeted way to access that opportunity through a pure-play2 ETF.”  The Sprott Rare Earths Ex-China ETF seeks to provide investment results that, before fees and expenses, correspond generally to the total return performance of the Nasdaq Sprott Rare Earths Ex-China™ Index (NSREXC™) by investing at least 80% of its total assets in securities of the Index. The Index is designed to track the performance of global companies engaged in the mining, separation, refining and production of rare earth elements, while excluding companies domiciled in or primarily operating in China.  REXC joins the Sprott Critical Materials ETF suite, which provides pure-play2 exposure to rare earths, uranium, copper, lithium and nickel miners.
