Hi, I haven't posted on your thread before, I'm also not a holder, however I have extensively researched AUZ having spent many hours in research. While on a different thread I have bumbled across a US Federal Government report that has just been written that will be of keen interest to holders here.
The report speaks of supporting, "allies" with mineral resources, particularly lithium, Cobalt and high grade Nickel.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-content/uploads/2021/06/100-day-supply-chain-review-report.pdf
I am seriously considering, printing and binding this report, I clearly outlines US intentions for battery and semiconductor materials and manufacturing processes in regard to the US and it's allies for the current (Biden) administration, it really is essential reading.
an extract from the bottom of page 140 reads.
Work with Allies and Partners to Expand Global Production and Ensure Access to Supplies
The United States cannot and does not need to mine and process all critical battery inputs at home; it can and
should work with allies and partners to expand global production and to ensure secure global supplies. There
are several steps that the United States should take to work with allies and partners to strengthen key global
supplies:
187 USGS. 2021. “Material Commodity Summaries 2021”, https://pubs.usgs.gov/periodicals/mcs2021/mcs2021.pdf
141
Use the U.S. Development Finance Corporation (DFC) to expand production and processing of key
metals: The DFC should identify projects in allied and partner nations that can be funded to create new
sustainable mining and processing operations for lithium, graphite, and other key metals and materials.
Use trade tools to strengthen critical mineral supplies: The new Supply Chain Trade Strike Force should
examine both unfair trade practices that undercut the security of supplies of critical minerals, such as
bans on exports by several countries, and the impacts of U.S. tariffs and other U.S. trade policies that
may inadvertently create supply chain challenges for U.S. battery production.
Promote the use of transparent competitive procurement and concession practices through foreign
assistance programs abroad: The U.S. Government, including the United States Agency for International
Development (USAID), should promote the institutionalization of transparent procurement and mineral
extraction rights through policies, laws, and regulations. Building on U.S. government programs that
enable competitive procurement of renewable energy and extractives industry transparency in assistance
countries, USAID should promote competitive tenders for mining and sale of minerals needed for
manufacturing of the batteries.
Lithium, Nickel grade 1, Cobalt and manganese are listed again and again as key metals.
FYI
The only question is when is Biden meeting with Morrison.
