Overview
About Molymet
Molymet is a Chilean company that processes molybdenum concentrate from miners around the world, and one of the largest molybdenum processors anywhere. Roasting molybdenite releases rhenium, which Molymet captures, making it one of the world's main sources of a rare metal used in jet engine superalloys and petrol refining catalysts.
Business
Molymet's critical minerals business
Molymet is linked to rhenium, which it recovers when it roasts molybdenite concentrate. Rhenium is one of the rarest elements in the Earth's crust, and almost all of it comes as a by-product of copper and molybdenum mining. It goes mainly into the nickel superalloys used in jet engine turbine blades and into the catalysts that make high-octane petrol, which makes it strategic for aerospace and defence.
Operations
Where Molymet operates
Molymet's main plant is at Nos, near Santiago, with a second at Mejillones in northern Chile. It also operates plants in Mexico, Belgium and Germany, giving it processing capacity close to many of the world's molybdenum miners and buyers.

Where is Molymet listed?
Molymet is listed on the Santiago Stock Exchange under the ticker MOLYMET (SNSE: MOLYMET), and is based in Chile.
What is rhenium used for?
Mainly in nickel superalloys for jet engine and gas turbine blades, and in platinum-rhenium catalysts that refiners use to make high-octane petrol.
Does Molymet mine its own molybdenum?
No. It processes molybdenum concentrate bought from copper and molybdenum miners, recovering rhenium as it does so.
