I think its already good news we can detect such asteroids. But yes, the main reason that this is big news is of course because there are serious plans to exploit such objects in space

Wouldn't the valuable metals likely be used like other valuable metals are used these days (so, used in tech like computer chips etc.)?
Hmm I guess at first it could be seen as quite exotic because its from space, but when such exploitation becomes more common I expect the rarity and attributed value of that would lower
