China’s Biggest Rare Earth Factory Explodes, Workers Blown Away, Massive Tank Hurled 2 km
.
Around 3 PM on January 18, the largest rare earth refining and processing plant in China—Baotou Baogang Rare Earth Steel Plate Factory in Inner Mongolia—exploded. The sound was deafening, and in an instant, a huge shockwave sent a circular storage tank flying into the air. The tank shot up dozens of meters high before falling back down, leaving a massive crater when it hit the ground. A white mushroom cloud rose into the sky, visible for miles around.
