What are Critical Minerals?<\/b><\/h2>\n

These are minerals that are essential for economic development and national security, and the lack of availability of these minerals or the concentration of extraction or processing in a few geographical locations could potentially lead to supply chain vulnerabilities and even disruption of supplies.<\/span><\/p>\n
