The EPA will never allow this. If they do allow it, they will require the company doing the mining to be non-American (probably owned by China anyway)

>The state of Wyoming is financing rare earths mining projects that could eventually become the largest in the United States. The goal is to loosen China’s grip on the market. On Thursday, one of the leading rare earths mining projects in Wyoming received $7.1 million in financial backing from two state energy-related agencies to advance further exploration of the strategic minerals.

I am not familiar with the mining methods but all of them are dangerous and typically creates toxic waste. There are some places in WY that already have that problem including a small town that is basically a ghost town now since it really only existed for the uranium mine which has not been active for decades.
