Insightful information from McKinsey & Company and World Economic Forum highlighting the need for global multistakeholder collaboration across the value chain and wider ecosystem to lower barriers and enable solutions for securing minerals. 

Last day at Future Minerals Forum. Come speak with Thomas Mitchell and I from Membrion, Inc. and another 24 fantastic companies on the Newlab venture platform. Membrion’s ECD technology is helping industries recover water and critical minerals, supporting the growing demand for metals like lithium, cobalt, and nickel. This technology not only powers cleaner production processes but also contributes to a circular economy. #WorthEveryDrop #ChipsAct #CircularEconomy #ClimateAction #FMF25

How can players react to risks and uncertainties associated with supply chains?   The #green transition requires a fundamental shift from fossil-fuel-based value chains to a new generation of clean energy #technologies based on non-fossil minerals. As a result, demand for lithium, nickel, copper, and other critical minerals is soaring.   Players need to make their supply chains more resilient to keep pace with supply difficulties and manage the risks and #uncertainties in their supply chains. This report by Wolfgang Bernhart, Isaac Chan, Kyle Gordon and Tim Hotz assesses challenges, uncertainties and risks associated with raw material supply chains and develops an approach and recommendations to improve the resilience of these supply chains.   Check out the full publication by Roland Berger on the Automotive Disruption Radar platform for free now: https://lnkd.in/erhPzDdr   #automotivedisruptionradar #supplychain #resilience

The race to secure critical minerals is on, but supply shortages could jeopardize the energy transition. Our recent paper, published with World Economic Forum, explores the barriers and solutions to unlocking the critical minerals supply chain, with a focus on investment, innovation, and global collaboration.

🌍🔋 Ensuring a sustainable and affordable supply of critical minerals requires collaboration across multiple sectors. As the demand for these essential resources continues to rise, we face the risk of supply shortages that could hinder the #energytransition. 🤝 In this new report, Unlocking critical minerals for the energy transition: The role of policy, investment, and innovation, the World Economic Forum and McKinsey & Company outline how targeted policies, strategic investments, and technological innovation can address these challenges and secure a stable, greener future. Explore the report to understand the key actions needed to create a more resilient and accessible critical minerals supply chain: https://lnkd.in/eqASX3zv #sustainability #cleanenergy #innovation #criticalminerals

Great to see Pengana Capital Group's James McDonald highlighting the opportunities in critical minerals processing in this Stockhead article. 🌍🔋 It’s a strong compliment to be compared to IperionX, a highly successful innovator in the industrial metals technology space. Their achievements set a high bar, and we at MTM Critical Metals are proud to contribute to this transformative sector with our own advancements, like Flash Joule Heating (FJH) technology. Our FJH process is focused on sustainably extracting and recycling critical materials from complex ores and high-value waste streams – a game-changer for the energy transition and supply chain resilience.

EU Critical Raw Materials Act A review of the EU's Critical Raw Materials Act (CRMA) finds a disproportionately high focus on raw materials to produce rare-earth magnets, as well as battery-grade lithium. The Act was passed into law in April 2024 and is intended to strengthen the union's critical raw materials supply chain for decades. The CRMA mandates that, by 2030, 10% of the EU's annual consumption must be mined domestically and 40% must be processed domestically. #criticalminerals #mining #EU #CRMA #REE #lithium #magnet Read more at IOM3 (Institute of Materials, Minerals & Mining) https://lnkd.in/eHNg5Yp2

The Graphene Bank Despite recent progress in boosting the production of certain materials, supply shortages are still anticipated for many of the critical minerals and metals necessary to produce the lower-carbon technologies that are key to the energy transition. Left unchecked, this could mitigate nations’ ability to decarbonize their economies. #3Daromaticgraphene #nonerareeartaterial #conformal&atmass #circular
