Credible Critical Minerals Advisory
As we enter the new industrial revolution, propelled by the energy transition, the U.S. has a once-in-a-generation opportunity to capitalise on its natural endowments and continue to be a global superpower.
This requires symbiotic cooperation between industry and governments, to ensure that U.S. industry is resilient, agile, and strategically supported in navigating distorted markets.
