Today I met with Her Excellency Caroline Kennedy, United States Ambassador to Australia, on the sidelines of Paydirt’s Battery Minerals Conference in Perth this morning.
I am told by delegates at the conference, that Ambassador Kennedy discussed the United States whole-of-government approach to securing critical mineral supply chains from trusted vendors, like Australia.
Currently, international supply chains for critical minerals are continuing to transform.
With our rich endowment of battery and critical minerals, Western Australia will be a key player in global supply chains in this space.
I look forward to strengthening ties with our partners in the US and welcome the opportunity to discuss these matters with Her Excellency Caroline Kennedy in the future.

The US is also desperate for our uranium; we could be a trusted supplier of uranium to the US; our closest strategic ally.
We must act now to take up this opportunity.
This is such an exciting and profitable opportunity for Westwrn Australia. And we would benefit by diversifying our economy too and ensuring our mining workforce maintains strong employment as other commodities such as nickel and iron ore have down times.
The US doesn’t yet designate uranium a critical mineral as they designate it an energy fuel. Will be interesting to see if that changes in the near term as the Russian uranium ban comes into effect.

I agree with Jonathan Fisher, we in Australia need to take all opportunities as they are presented. This opportunity here is a result mostly from a bifurcation of supply….in USA terms…..those we can buy from, and those we most definitely cannot. While Jonathan didn’t specifically mention in this post he has previously mentioned that Australia hosts around a third of the Earth’s uranium deposits. So Decision Makers…do your homework, look at who is actually using this potential base-load energy solution, also look beyond the 50-60’s fear of Armageddon, and consider that we are in 2024, so we would be considering new technology….also (and importantly) all energy comes from the periodic table!
Some elements combine, some on their own, but reality is, if humanity is good at adapting and we need to “find” alternatives to the carbon based base-load energy, perhaps we need to look broader than a bunch of wind turbines and solar panels. I’m just a simple geologist, but bang for buck, I reckon we need to be looking for energy solutions beyond when the sun goes down and the wind stops blowing.

It is fantastic the Minister is building strong relationships with our strategic partners.- As well as looking to Australia for critical minerals, the US is also absolutely desperate for our uranium; we could be a trusted supplier of uranium to the US; our closest strategic ally.
- Australia may or may not make the decision to build its own reactors. That’s an issue that the federal election will help clarify. But the rest of the world is certainly tripling down on its nuclear ambitions and needs huge amounts of uranium to fuel it.
- Uranium that we have. Lots of it. Just waiting to be exported.
- Now the US doesn’t yet technically designate uranium a critical mineral as they designate it an energy fuel. But that doesn’t mean they aren’t desperate for uranium supply from politically aligned nations. And it will be interesting to see if that classification changes in the near term as the Russian uranium ban comes into effect…
- We should act now to take up this exciting and profitable opportunity for Western Australia. And we would benefit by diversifying our economy too and ensuring our mining workforce maintains strong employment as other commodities such as nickel and iron ore have down times.
- Perhaps policy makers and union leaders should ask those workers whose jobs are under threat if they would prefer the uranium mining ban to continue or if they would be interested in working in the new growth industry to help deliver zero carbon energy to the world.

The federal government today released the Critical Minerals Strategy 2023-2030. Published by the Department of Industry, Science and Resources alongside the new Australia's Critical Minerals List (see below), it sets out the government's vision for the sector.- The Strategy outlines how Australia can best leverage the opportunities of the sector, given our rich geological reserves, existing expertise at extracting minerals and our deep history as a producer and exporter of both energy and resources.
- By 2030, the vision states that Australia will:
- ⛏ Have grown the geostrategic and economic benefits of the sector
- ⛏ Be a globally significant producer of raw and processed critical minerals
- ⛏ Support diverse, resilient and sustainable supply chains
- The 6 focus areas that outline how the Strategy will make the most of this opportunity are:
- 1️⃣ Developing strategically important projects
- 2️⃣ Attracting investment and building international partnerships
- 3️⃣ First Nations engagement and benefit sharing
- 4️⃣ Promoting Australia as a world leader in ESG performance
- 5️⃣ Unlocking the investment in enabling infrastructure and services
- 6️⃣ Growing a skilled workforce

Australia’s #CriticalMineralsStrategy has set out a plan to establish Australia as a global supplier of raw and processed #rareearths and #criticalminerals by 2030.- As Australia's Minster for Resources The Hon Madeleine King outlined in a recent speech to the Australian British Chamber of Commerce, part of that Strategy will be to work with international partners to build diverse, resilient, and sustainable global supply chains.
- At Australian Strategic Materials (ASM) we're excited to be part of this opportunity as we deliver on our global mine to metals strategy.
- We're already working across multiple jurisdictions, with our #DubboProject in Australia, developing a supplementary, secure source of rare earth oxides from Vietnam, our metals producing plant in Republic of Korea, and delivering to our growing international customer base.
- As we build an alternative supply chain for the minerals and metals that will drive the global energy transition, we're looking forward to further #collaboration with government, investors and end users
- As Minister King said: “Critical minerals and rare earths will be of vital importance in reducing emissions and the clean energy transition…With the right settings and support for critical minerals, great things can be achieved.”
- We couldn't agree more!

Today’s release of the 2023 Critical Minerals Strategy by the Hon. Madeleine King is a great step forward for Australian critical mineral and mineral processing interests.- Applying an holistic lens to a complex sector, the strategy focuses on six strategic themes of: partnerships, investing in strategic projects, First Nations, ESG, workforce and infrastructure. Together, they will ensure that Australia achieves the greatest impact for our investment and provide a foundation for growth.
- With over $5 billion already committed to the sector through the NRF, CMLF, NAIF, CMA, MMI and other programs, CEO Shannon O'Rourke said the focus on working with international partners was critical and would amplify the investments already made by the Australian Government.
- In developing the strategy, industry was heavily engaged through joint State and Federal Ministerial roundtables, and to which the Future Battery Industries Cooperative Research Centre was delighted to contribute. Learnings from these frank discussions have clearly informed the thinking behind the strategy.

Australia's Critical Minerals Strategy is now published! What potential similarities or differences appear to exist when compared to European Critical Raw Materilas Act?- In any case, I have always been in favor of calling things what they really are and deal with, namely "Critical Minerals" rather than "Critical Raw Materials"!

In the next seven years, we will see a 350% increase in global demand of critical minerals - and Australia has the world's largest deposits beneath our soil.- If we invest now in a new industry that mines, refines, and manufactures these minerals into technologies that the planet needs, this could fund our Aged Care, NDIS and Defence sectors in decades to come.
- Building our critical minerals sector isn't just about net zero - it's about funding Australia's future. Read the full story here: https://loom.ly/Q-APVl8

IPS Management Consultants' Co-CEO, Julie Hillier, Relationships and Growth Manager Doug Green, and Business Local Manager Allan McGillivray were honoured to attend the Keynote and Ministerial presentations, along with a dynamic panel discussion featuring industry luminaries at the Critical Minerals Industry Luncheon in Bunbury, WA.- The event was enriched by inspiring presentations from the Minister for Regional Development, Hon. Don Punch MLA, and Albemarle Corporation Australia's Country Manager and VP External Affairs, Beverley East.
- The panel discussion, masterfully led by South West Development Commission CEO Mellisa Teede, highlighted the crucial role the South West of Western Australia plays in supplying the world with the critical minerals essential for the transition to a cleaner energy future.
- We extend our gratitude to all the panel speakers for their invaluable insights, including Lorry Mignacca (CEO | Talison Lithium), Shannon O'Rourke (CEO | Future Battery Industries Cooperative Research Centre) and Ben Laidler (Director, Batteries and Critical Minerals | Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation).
- Notably, this region hosts the world's premier hard rock lithium mineral deposit at Greenbushes, a resource integral to products like lithium batteries.
- It's a moment for our region to seize the opportunities emerging in the global race to achieve net zero emissions targets.
- Together, we can contribute to a brighter and more sustainable future.

Fortunate to have attended the Critical Mineral Association (UK)’s 3rd Annual Conference, The UK Opportunity for Critical Minerals, yesterday.- One thing that really struck me was, despite their seeming to be some action behind the words now, so little effort seems to have been put into integrating all these different sustainability strategies or their Critical Metals policies that the big nations drummed on about, across borders.
- To coin a term, if we are “all in this together”, in terms of meeting our decarbonisation goals and securing supply chains away from China, there has to be a realisation that there is limited Human Resources/knowledge and willing finance available and ‘friendly’ nations should consider working together rather than all perusing a “race” to secure extraction, production and jobs in their own jurisdiction, as one of the Candian provincial premiers put it.
- The only true example of collaboration I heard was from the African nations between DRC, Zambia and South Africa in the continent’s automotive industry. These points were most eloquently, put by the panel containing Stacy Hope, Ph.D, Madeline R. Young and Veronica Bolton Smith.
- Permits the larger nations should look closer into these examples
