The UK’s critical minerals supply chains are vulnerable due to our continuing dependence on autocracies – in particular China – and the inaction of successive UK governments, a report from the Foreign Affairs Committee has found.

Miners are seeking to take advantage of a jump in the prices of many rare earth elements, needed for permanent magnets used in low-carbon technologies as well as myriad other applications such as weapons systems. The

What are Critical Raw Materials? Critical Raw Materials (“CRMs”) are mineral commodities that are economically important, and at risk of supply disruption by a number of factors, including rapid demand growth, high concentration of supply chains

Magnet metals miner Pensana, continuing with the site development works for its rare-earth elements Longonjo project, in Angola, reported towards the end of August that it was progressing with site infrastructure development underway, in preparation for
