  • ASX Scandium Juniors Poised for Growth Amid Rising Demand and Supply Constraints
    May 27, 2026, 4:50 PM EDT. Scandium, a critical mineral vital for aerospace, new energy systems, and semiconductors, is drawing increased market attention due to China's dominant supply and export controls. Sunrise Energy Metals (ASX: SRL) leads the charge on the Australian Stock Exchange with its Syerston project, the world's largest and highest-grade scandium deposit. Shares of Sunrise have surged over 3100% following a positive feasibility study and U.S. Export-Import Bank interest in project financing. Demand for scandium is forecast to grow at about 19% annually, reaching 300 tonnes by 2030. Other juniors like West Cobar Metals (ASX: WC1), with its Salazar project in Western Australia, are also positioned to capitalize on this emerging market trend.
