Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION	DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS AND BASIS OF PRESENTATION Description of Business: MP Materials Corp., including its subsidiaries (the “Company” or “MP Materials”), is the largest producer of rare earth materials in the Western Hemisphere. The Company, which is headquartered in Las Vegas, Nevada, owns and operates the Mountain Pass Rare Earth Mine and Processing Facility (“Mountain Pass”), the only rare earth mining and processing site of scale in North America. MP Materials currently produces a rare earth concentrate that is principally sold pursuant to the Offtake Agreement to Shenghe (as such terms are defined in Note 14, “Related-Party Transactions,” ), a related party of the Company, that, in turn, typically sells that product to refiners in China. These refiners separate the constituent rare earth elements contained in the Company’s concentrate and sell the separated products to their customers. Upon completing commissioning of the Stage II optimization project (“Stage II”), the Company anticipates producing and selling separated rare earth products, including neodymium-praseodymium (“NdPr”) oxide, to customers globally. In February 2023, the Company entered into a distributorship agreement (“Distribution Agreement”) with Sumitomo Corporation of Americas (“Sumitomo”), under which Sumitomo would serve as the exclusive distributor of NdPr oxide produced by the Company to Japanese customers. Further, in connection with the Distribution Agreement, the Company and Sumitomo intend to collaborate on the supply of rare earth metals and other products. In addition, the Company is constructing its initial rare earth metal, alloy and magnet manufacturing facility in Fort Worth, Texas (the “Fort Worth Facility”), where it anticipates manufacturing, among other products, neodymium-iron-boron (“NdFeB”) permanent magnets. Furthermore, in April 2022, the Company entered into a long-term supply agreement with General Motors Company (NYSE: GM) (“GM”) to supply U.S.-sourced and manufactured rare earth materials, alloy and finished magnets for the electric motors in more than a dozen models using GM’s Ultium Platform, with a gradual production ramp that is expected to begin in late 2023, starting with alloy. These developments are a part of the Company’s Stage III downstream expansion strategy (“Stage III”). Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available and evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”), or decision-making group, in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. The Company’s CODM views the Company’s operations and manages the business as one reportable segment. The cash flows and profitability of the Company’s operations are significantly affected by the market price of rare earth products. The prices of rare earth products are affected by numerous factors beyond the Company’s control. The products of the Company are sold globally, with a primary focus in the Asian market due to the refining capabilities of the region. Rare earth products are critical inputs in hundreds of existing and emerging clean-tech applications including electric vehicles and wind turbines as well as robotics, drones, and defense applications. Basis of Presentation: The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that would be achieved during a full year of operations or in future periods. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	6 Months Ended

Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Principles of Consolidation: The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of MP Materials Corp. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Use of Estimates : The preparation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and (iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates. Concentration of Risk: Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, and trade accounts receivable. The Company believes that its credit risk is limited because the Company’s current contracts are with companies that have a reliable payment history. The Company does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risks related to its cash accounts, money market funds, or short-term investments. As of June 30, 2023, Shenghe was the Company’s principal customer and accounted for more than 90% of product sales. Rare earth concentrate is not quoted on any major commodities market or exchange and demand for rare earth concentrate is currently constrained to a relatively limited number of refiners, a significant majority of which are based in China. Uncertainty exists as to the market price of rare earth oxide (“REO”), as evidenced by the volatility experienced in 2022 and continued into 2023 due to concerns over the global economic conditions and actual or perceived concerns over increases in the supply of rare earth products. Furthermore, while revenue is generated in the United States, Shenghe conducts its primary operations in China and may transport and sell products in the Chinese market. Note 14, “Related-Party Transactions,” for additional information. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects continue to evolve. Since the onset of the pandemic, the Company has experienced, at times, significant shipping delays due to congestion and slowdowns at U.S. and international ports caused by shortages in vessels, containers, and truckers, also disrupting the global supply chain. Despite these factors, the Company has not experienced a reduction in production or sales due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to certain cost and schedule pressures for capital projects and may impact reliability of transportation, particularly as the Company expects a significant increase in inbound logistics of raw materials to be consumed in Stage II operations. The Company continues to monitor the global situation, including the impacts of new and potential future variants of COVID-19, or other factors that may affect international shipping, logistics, and supply chain, or involve responses to government actions such as strikes or other disruptions. It is impossible to predict the effect and ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations, production and sales volumes, or growth projects. Leases: The Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease at contract inception. In some cases, the Company has determined that its lease arrangements include both lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to use a practical expedient to account for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component for the majority of its asset classes. The Company recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities upon commencement for all leases with a lease term greater than 12 months. The Company has elected to use a practical expedient to not recognize leases with a lease term of 12 months or less in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the majority of its asset classes. These short-term leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When the rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of the future lease payments. Lease liabilities are accreted each period and reduced for payments. The ROU asset also includes other adjustments, such as for the effects of lease prepayments, initial lease costs, or lease incentives received. The lease term may include periods covered by options to extend or terminate the lease when it is either reasonably certain that the Company will exercise a renewal option, or reasonably certain it will not exercise an early termination option. For operating leases, lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, the ROU asset amortizes on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset (or the useful life of the underlying asset if title transfers at the end of the lease term or there is a purchase option the Company is reasonably certain to exercise) and the lease liability accretes interest based on the interest method using the discount rate determined at lease commencement. For operating and finance leases, variable lease payments not included in the lease liability are expensed as incurred unless such costs are capitalized as part of another asset (e.g., inventory). Additionally, ROU assets are subject to impairment testing whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable. See also Note 7, “ Leases. ” Stock-Based Compensation: The cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments is based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The fair value of Stock Awards (as defined in Note 11, “Stock-based Compensation,” ) is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. The fair value of performance awards that include performance and/or market conditions is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation technique. The Monte Carlo simulation requires the use of inputs and assumptions such as the grant-date closing stock price, expected volatility, correlation coefficient to relevant peer groups or indices, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield. Compensation cost for Stock Awards with graded vesting schedules is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period for each separately vesting portion of the award as if the award was, in substance, multiple awards, which results in accelerated recognition of compensation cost. Compensation cost for performance awards with cliff vesting schedules is recognized on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Compensation cost is not adjusted based on the actual achievement of the market-based performance goals. The Company accounts for forfeitures in the period in which they occur based on actual forfeitures. See also Note 11, “Stock-based Compensation.” Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements: During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no accounting pronouncements adopted by the Company that had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, as of June 30, 2023, there were no accounting pronouncements pending adoption that are expected to have a material impact on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Reclassifications: Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.

Asset Retirement Obligation Disclosure [Abstract]
ASSET RETIREMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL OBLIGATIONS	ASSET RETIREMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL OBLIGATIONS Asset Retirement Obligations The Company estimates asset retirement obligations based on the requirements to reclaim certain land areas associated with mineral extraction activities and certain related facilities at Mountain Pass. Minor reclamation activities related to discrete portions of the Company’s operations are ongoing. As of June 30, 2023, the Company estimated a significant portion of the cash outflows for major reclamation activities including the retirement of Mountain Pass will be incurred beginning in 2056 and 2057. As of June 30, 2023, the credit-adjusted risk-free rate ranged between 6.5% and 12.0% depending on the timing of expected settlement and when the increment was recognized. There were no significant increments or decrements for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The balance as of both June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, included current portions of $0.2 million. The total estimated future undiscounted cash flows required to satisfy the Company’s asset retirement obligations were $50.3 million and $50.4 million as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively. Environmental Obligations The Company has certain environmental remediation liabilities related to the monitoring of groundwater contamination. The Company engaged an environmental consultant to develop a remediation plan and remediation cost projections based upon that plan. Utilizing the remediation plan developed by the environmental consultant, the Company developed an estimate of future cash payments for the remediation plan. As of June 30, 2023, the Company estimated the cash outflows related to these environmental activities will be incurred annually over the next 25 years. The Company’s environmental remediation liabilities are measured at the expected value of future cash outflows discounted to their present value using a discount rate of 2.93%. There were no significant changes in the estimated remaining remediation costs for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022. The total estimated aggregate undiscounted cost of $26.9 million and $27.2 million as of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, respectively, principally related to water monitoring activities required by state and local agencies. Based on the Company’s estimate of the cost and timing and the assumption that payments are considered to be fixed and reliably determinable, the Company has discounted the liability. The balance as of both June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, included current portions of $0.5 million. Financial Assurances The Company is required to provide the applicable government agencies with financial assurances relating to the closure and reclamation obligations. As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, the Company had financial assurance requirements of $45.4 million and $43.5 million, respectively, which were satisfied with surety bonds placed with California state and regional agencies.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]
INCOME TAXES	INCOME TAXES The Company calculates the provision for income taxes during interim reporting periods by applying an estimate of the annual effective tax rate to its year-to-date pretax book income or loss. The tax effects of discrete items, including but not limited to, excess tax benefits associated with stock-based compensation, valuation allowance adjustments based on new evidence, and enactment of tax laws, are reported in the interim period in which they occur. The effective tax rate (income tax expense as a percentage of income before income taxes) including discrete items was 42.7% and 23.0% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to 24.2% and 24.4% for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. The Company’s effective income tax rate can vary from period to period depending on, among other factors, percentage depletion, executive compensation deduction limitations, the Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit, and changes to its valuation allowance against deferred tax assets. Certain of these and other factors, including the Company’s history and projections of pretax earnings, are considered in assessing its ability to realize its net deferred tax assets. On August 16, 2022, the U.S. government enacted the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022 which, among other things, implements a 15% minimum tax on book income of certain large corporations, a 1% excise tax on net stock repurchases, and provides several tax incentives to promote clean energy for tax years beginning after December 31, 2022. The Company does not expect the minimum tax or excise tax to have a material impact on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company expects to benefit from the Section 45X Advanced Manufacturing Production Credit, which provides a credit equal to 10% of the costs incurred with respect to the production of certain critical minerals, including NdPr oxide.

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS	FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures” (“ASC 820”), establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are described below: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities; Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, quoted prices or inputs that are observable, either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability and model-based valuation techniques (e.g., the Black-Scholes model) for which all significant inputs are observable in active markets. Level 3 Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (supported by little or no market activity). The Company’s assessment of the significance of a particular input to the fair value measurement requires judgment and may affect the valuation of assets and liabilities and their placement within the fair value hierarchy. The following methods and assumptions are used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments for which it is practicable to estimate. The fair value of the Company’s accounts receivable, accounts payable, short-term debt and accrued liabilities approximates the carrying amounts because of the immediate or short-term maturity of these financial instruments. Cash, Cash Equivalents and Restricted Cash The Company’s cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash are classified within Level 1 of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying amounts reported in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets approximate the fair value of cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash due to the short-term nature of these assets. Short-term Investments The fair value of the Company’s short-term investments, which are classified as available-for-sale securities, is estimated based on quoted prices in active markets and is classified as a Level 1 measurement. Convertible Notes The fair value of the Company’s Convertible Notes is estimated based on quoted prices in active markets and is classified as a Level 1 measurement. Equipment Notes The Company’s equipment notes are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy because there are inputs that are directly observable for substantially the full term of the liability. Model-based valuation techniques for which all significant inputs are observable in active markets were used to calculate the fair values of liabilities classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. Assets and liabilities are classified in their entirety based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The carrying amounts and estimated fair values by input level of the Company’s financial instruments were as follows: June 30, 2023 (in thousands) Carrying Amount Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Financial assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 927,245 $ 927,245 $ 927,245 $ — $ — Short-term investments $ 200,828 $ 200,828 $ 200,828 $ — $ — Restricted cash $ 2,238 $ 2,238 $ 2,238 $ — $ — Financial liabilities: Convertible Notes $ 680,210 $ 612,789 $ 612,789 $ — $ — Equipment notes $ 5,930 $ 5,764 $ — $ 5,764 $ — December 31, 2022 (in thousands) Carrying Amount Fair Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 Financial assets: Cash and cash equivalents $ 136,627 $ 136,627 $ 136,627 $ — $ — Short-term investments $ 1,045,718 $ 1,045,718 $ 1,045,718 $ — $ — Restricted cash $ 6,882 $ 6,882 $ 6,882 $ — $ — Financial liabilities: Convertible Notes $ 678,444 $ 610,650 $ 610,650 $ — $ — Equipment notes $ 7,135 $ 6,807 $ — $ 6,807 $ —

Earnings Per Share [Abstract]
EARNINGS PER SHARE	EARNINGS PER SHARE Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted EPS is computed by dividing net income by the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period using the treasury stock method or the if-converted method, as applicable. The following table reconciles the weighted-average common shares outstanding used in the calculation of basic EPS to the weighted-average common shares outstanding used in the calculation of diluted EPS: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Weighted-average shares outstanding, basic 176,984,917 176,527,570 176,933,605 176,442,043 Assumed conversion of Convertible Notes — 15,584,409 15,584,409 15,584,409 Assumed conversion of restricted stock 555,282 845,450 639,214 996,994 Assumed conversion of RSUs 318,919 457,134 371,591 429,475 Weighted-average shares outstanding, diluted 177,859,118 193,414,563 193,528,819 193,452,921 The following table presents unweighted potentially dilutive shares that were not included in the computation of diluted EPS because to do so would have been antidilutive: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, 2023 2022 2023 2022 Convertible Notes 15,584,409 — — — RSUs 399,817 6,013 3,184 6,013 The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted EPS for the Company’s common stock: For the three months ended June 30, For the six months ended June 30, (in thousands, except share and per share data) 2023 2022 2023 2022 Calculation of basic EPS: Net income $ 7,395 $ 73,269 $ 44,842 $ 158,820 Weighted-average shares outstanding, basic 176,984,917 176,527,570 176,933,605 176,442,043 Basic EPS $ 0.04 $ 0.42 $ 0.25 $ 0.90 Calculation of diluted EPS: Net income $ 7,395 $ 73,269 $ 44,842 $ 158,820 Interest expense, net of tax (1) : Convertible Notes (2) — 993 2,025 1,981 Diluted income $ 7,395 $ 74,262 $ 46,867 $ 160,801 Weighted-average shares outstanding, diluted 177,859,118 193,414,563 193,528,819 193,452,921 Diluted EPS $ 0.04 $ 0.38 $ 0.24 $ 0.83 (1) The six months ended June 30, 2023, was tax-effected at a rate of 23.0%, and the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, were tax-effected at a rate of 24.2% and 24.4%, respectively.

Related Party Transactions [Abstract]
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS	RELATED-PARTY TRANSACTIONS Offtake Agreement: In March 2022, the Company entered into an offtake agreement (the “Offtake Agreement”) with Shenghe Resources (Singapore) International Trading Pte. Ltd. (“Shenghe”), a majority-owned subsidiary of Leshan Shenghe Rare Earth Co., Ltd. (“Leshan Shenghe”) whose ultimate parent is Shenghe Resources Holding Co., Ltd., a leading global rare earth company listed on the Shanghai Stock Exchange. The Offtake Agreement became effective upon the termination of the A&R Offtake Agreement (as discussed and defined below). The initial term of the Offtake Agreement is two years, with the option to extend the term at the Company’s discretion for an additional one-year period. Pursuant to the Offtake Agreement, and subject to certain exclusions, Shenghe is obligated to purchase on a “take or pay” basis the rare earth concentrate produced by the Company as the exclusive distributor in China, with certain exceptions for the Company’s direct sales globally. In addition, at the discretion of the Company, Shenghe may be required to purchase on a “take or pay” basis certain non-concentrate rare earth products, although the Company may sell all non-concentrate rare earth products in its sole discretion to customers or end users in any jurisdiction. Under the Offtake Agreement, Shenghe will be paid a variable commission on net proceeds to the Company. The sales price of rare earth concentrate sold to Shenghe is based on an agreed-upon price per metric ton, subject to certain quality adjustments depending on the measured characteristics of the product, with an adjustment for the ultimate market price of the product realized by Shenghe upon sales to their customers. The sales price and other terms applicable to a quantity of offtake products are set forth in monthly purchase agreements between the Company and Shenghe. Tolling Agreement with VREX: In March 2023, the Company entered into a tolling agreement with Vietnam Rare Earth Company Limited (“VREX”), a majority-owned subsidiary of Shenghe, which owns and operates a metal processing plant and related facilities in Vietnam (the “Tolling Agreement”). Pursuant to the Tolling Agreement, the Company will deliver NdPr oxide to VREX which VREX will then process into NdPr metal for delivery to the Company’s customers globally. During the term of the Tolling Agreement, the Company will pay VREX a processing fee per unit of rare earth metal produced. The Company will maintain title to the products and directly enter into sales agreements for the produced NdPr metal. The initial term of the Tolling Agreement is three years and may be renewed for additional three-year terms. As of June 30, 2023, there have not yet been any transactions as contemplated under the Tolling Agreement. Product Sales and Cost of Sales: Product sales from sales agreements with Shenghe for rare earth products were $62.6 million and $151.7 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to $131.6 million and $286.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, the Company also entered into sales agreements with Shenghe for non-concentrate products, including certain stockpiles of rare earth fluoride. These sales, which are included in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations in “Other sales (including related party),” were $4.4 million and $8.5 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Cost of sales, which includes shipping and freight, related to these agreements with Shenghe was $22.3 million and $45.0 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to $21.0 million and $43.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Purchases of Materials and Supplies: The Company purchases certain reagent products (generally produced by an unrelated third-party manufacturer) used in the flotation process as well as other materials from Shenghe in the ordinary course of business. Total purchases were $0.9 million and $1.8 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, respectively, as compared to $1.4 million and $2.6 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022, respectively. Accounts Receivable: As of June 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, $10.1 million and $29.8 million, respectively, of the accounts receivable as stated in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, were receivable from and pertained to sales made to Shenghe in the ordinary course of business.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICI_2

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Policies)	6 Months Ended
	Jun. 30, 2023
Accounting Policies [Abstract]
Basis of Presentation	The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by GAAP for complete consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included.Results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods presented herein are not necessarily indicative of the results that would be achieved during a full year of operations or in future periods. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022.
Principles of Consolidation	The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of MP Materials Corp. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Use of Estimates	The preparation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect (i) the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, (ii) the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, and (iii) the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.
Concentration of Risk	Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to credit risk consist principally of cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments, and trade accounts receivable. The Company believes that its credit risk is limited because the Company’s current contracts are with companies that have a reliable payment history. The Company does not believe that it is exposed to any significant risks related to its cash accounts, money market funds, or short-term investments. As of June 30, 2023, Shenghe was the Company’s principal customer and accounted for more than 90% of product sales. Rare earth concentrate is not quoted on any major commodities market or exchange and demand for rare earth concentrate is currently constrained to a relatively limited number of refiners, a significant majority of which are based in China. Uncertainty exists as to the market price of rare earth oxide (“REO”), as evidenced by the volatility experienced in 2022 and continued into 2023 due to concerns over the global economic conditions and actual or perceived concerns over increases in the supply of rare earth products. Furthermore, while revenue is generated in the United States, Shenghe conducts its primary operations in China and may transport and sell products in the Chinese market. Note 14, “Related-Party Transactions,” for additional information. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and its effects continue to evolve. Since the onset of the pandemic, the Company has experienced, at times, significant shipping delays due to congestion and slowdowns at U.S. and international ports caused by shortages in vessels, containers, and truckers, also disrupting the global supply chain. Despite these factors, the Company has not experienced a reduction in production or sales due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the COVID-19 pandemic has contributed to certain cost and schedule pressures for capital projects and may impact reliability of transportation, particularly as the Company expects a significant increase in inbound logistics of raw materials to be consumed in Stage II operations. The Company continues to monitor the global situation, including the impacts of new and potential future variants of COVID-19, or other factors that may affect international shipping, logistics, and supply chain, or involve responses to government actions such as strikes or other disruptions. It is impossible to predict the effect and ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations, production and sales volumes, or growth projects.
Leases	The Company determines if an arrangement is, or contains, a lease at contract inception. In some cases, the Company has determined that its lease arrangements include both lease and non-lease components. The Company has elected to use a practical expedient to account for each separate lease component and its associated non-lease components as a single lease component for the majority of its asset classes. The Company recognizes right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities upon commencement for all leases with a lease term greater than 12 months. The Company has elected to use a practical expedient to not recognize leases with a lease term of 12 months or less in the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets for the majority of its asset classes. These short-term leases are expensed on a straight-line basis over the lease term.ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at commencement date of the lease based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When the rate implicit in the lease cannot be readily determined, the Company utilizes its incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of the future lease payments. Lease liabilities are accreted each period and reduced for payments. The ROU asset also includes other adjustments, such as for the effects of lease prepayments, initial lease costs, or lease incentives received. The lease term may include periods covered by options to extend or terminate the lease when it is either reasonably certain that the Company will exercise a renewal option, or reasonably certain it will not exercise an early termination option. For operating leases, lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. For finance leases, the ROU asset amortizes on a straight-line basis over the shorter of the lease term or the useful life of the underlying asset (or the useful life of the underlying asset if title transfers at the end of the lease term or there is a purchase option the Company is reasonably certain to exercise) and the lease liability accretes interest based on the interest method using the discount rate determined at lease commencement. For operating and finance leases, variable lease payments not included in the lease liability are expensed as incurred unless such costs are capitalized as part of another asset (e.g., inventory). Additionally, ROU assets are subject to impairment testing whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amount may not be recoverable.
Stock-Based Compensation	The cost of employee services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments is based on the grant-date fair value of the award. The fair value of Stock Awards (as defined in Note 11, “Stock-based Compensation,” ) is equal to the fair value of the Company’s stock on the grant date. The fair value of performance awards that include performance and/or market conditions is determined using a Monte Carlo simulation technique. The Monte Carlo simulation requires the use of inputs and assumptions such as the grant-date closing stock price, expected volatility, correlation coefficient to relevant peer groups or indices, risk-free interest rate and dividend yield.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements	During the three and six months ended June 30, 2023, there were no accounting pronouncements adopted by the Company that had a material impact on the Company’s unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Additionally, as of June 30, 2023, there were no accounting pronouncements pending adoption that are expected to have a material impact on the Company's unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Reclassifications	Certain amounts in prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current year presentation.
