Abstract

There are numerous reports available about REE in general, mostly from consultants. Usually the contents of their reports resemble each other with the exception that some reports contain more details than others, some deal more in depth with producing companies, others stay on top level only. Consultants with emphasis on the financial businesses (e.g. Crystal International Consultants Ltd.,) have reports that start with a general overview of the REE followed by a presentation of present and promising companies listed on the stock markets.
