IPOH: Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Ahmad Faizal Azumu says there should be no panic over reports that a company has been allowed to mine rare earth in the state, claiming that the China firm was only allowed to conduct exploration.

He said Mentri Besar Incorporated (MB Inc) has a joint-venture with the company to find out what minerals were located underneath.
