  "account": "Arafura Resources stock experienced a 4.4% increase on Friday, reaching A$0.178, after the company announced an extension of its offtake agreement with a major global wind turbine manufacturer. Under this new deal, Arafura will supply 500 metric tons of NdPr oxide annually for a period of five years. The client's identity remains undisclosed. The positive movement in Arafura's shares follows growing market confidence that the company's Nolans Rare Earths Project is transitioning from planning to active construction. In May 2026, Nolans secured a Final Investment Decision, and construction is now set to commence around the current month. This significant milestone has kept Arafura in the spotlight among Australian rare earth investors. Meanwhile, the broader ASX 200 index showed a slight positive trend on Friday.
