The global race for critical minerals has intensified as nations strive to secure resources essential for the #energytransition. These minerals, including #lithium, #nickel, and #cobalt, are concentrated in a few countries, with #China dominating the refining and processing stages. This concentration has created #supplychain vulnerabilities, prompting nations like Indonesia to adopt proactive strategies. As a key player in the critical minerals sector, #Indonesia must leverage its position to enhance its role in global supply chains. It should advocate for #investment in refining capacities within resource-rich nations. A regional approach, partnering with countries like #Australia and the #Philippines, could establish a robust EV battery industry and diversify partnerships beyond China. To capitalize on its critical minerals potential, Indonesia must secure international collaborations that advance #sustainable mining, refining, and manufacturing practices.

Indonesia is open to expanding cooperation in critical minerals for electric vehicle (EV) battery production with African countries. The Foreign Affairs Ministry's Director General of Asia, Pacific, and Africa, Abdul Kadir Jailani, at the press conference of the Indonesia-Africa Forum (IAF) here on Sunday, explained that Indonesia needs lots of critical minerals to produce EV batteries. "To produce EV batteries, we need a lot of critical minerals, not just nickel, and we know that some African countries have critical mineral potential," Jailani stated.

Ghana partners with a Chinese firm to develop a $450m manganese refinery. China is a global exporter of capital, these days. This is manifest not only in the more traditional areas of investment (eg raw materials), but also increasingly in capital intensive value adding. This refinery is an example of this emerging pattern. #ghana #china #refinery #investment

Developed nations such as the US need to invest in countries with vast reserves of critical minerals to reduce supply chain risks as these commodities are “the new oil” driving geopolitics, according to Indonesia’s Deputy Foreign Minister Pahala Mansury. Advanced countries need to see where the geo-economics are shifting and adjust their priorities as the world is already transitioning into renewable energy, Mansury said in an interview with Bloomberg News last week. This could help build better economic ties with Indonesia, the biggest producer of nickel, a metal that’s used for electric vehicle batteries, he said. Indonesia is in the market for a wide-ranging critical minerals pact to boost its economy, the largest in Southeast Asia, as the US-China rivalry intensifies. While China is the nation’s biggest trading partner and has a stranglehold on the nickel processing sector, Indonesia sees the US playing a key role in its transition economy. There is “recognition from the US that renewable energy is actually a very strategic industry,” Mansury said. “Critical minerals are like the oil of the past, or they are actually the oil of the future.” #energytransition #criticalminerals #supplychain #indonesia #nickel #mining #usinvestments #china #supplychainrisks #evs #batteries

Recently, the #IEA Global Critical Minerals Outlook 2024 Report highlighted the demand for critical minerals will surge due to the global energy transition, with the market value expected to double to USD 770 billion by 2040. Latin America, Indonesia, and Africa will benefit, while China will dominate refining. However, supply-demand imbalances are expected, and investment in mining grew by 10% in 2023, despite price volatility. Here's a detailed look at the findings and strategic recommendations, based on our #ClimindRead analysis: Find more details: https://lnkd.in/eKiUurN3 Key Findings: 1. Demand Surge: Lithium demand to increase ninefold by 2040; market value of critical minerals to more than double to USD 770 billion. 2. Regional Benefits: Latin America, Indonesia, and Africa to see significant market value increases; China to dominate refining. 3. Supply-Demand Imbalances: Significant gaps for copper and lithium; tight balances for nickel and cobalt; high market concentration for graphite and rare earth elements. 4. Investment Trends: Continued growth in investment despite price volatility; increases in exploration and venture capital spending. 5. Market Volatility: Sharp price declines in 2023 following previous increases; ongoing demand growth driven by clean energy applications. Strategic Recommendations: 1. Diversify Supply Chains: Encourage development of projects in geographically diverse regions to reduce supply chain vulnerabilities. 2. Increase Investment: Sustain and increase investment in critical mineral mining, particularly in underdeveloped regions. 3. Enhance Recycling: Promote battery recycling to offset reduced investment in mining and refining. 4. Monitor Market Trends: Continuously track market developments and adjust strategies to mitigate risks associated with price volatility and supply concentration. #CriticalMinerals #CleanEnergy #Lithium #Copper #Nickel #Cobalt #Graphite #RareEarthElements #EnergyTransition #Investment #SupplyChain #Recycling #MarketTrends #Sustainability #ClimateAction #GreenEnergy #BatteryTechnology

Recently, I had the honor of participating in the 9th ASEAN Ministerial Meeting on Minerals, where I had the privilege of sharing insights on how collaborative efforts in the mining industry can drive economic value for ASEAN. ASEAN countries will continue to play a significant role in global supply of critical minerals, particularly on nickel, tin, REE, etc. In my presentation, we delved into four key collaboration areas: 1. Advance Technology: Unleash the potential of downstream technologies to enhance safety, boost productivity, and claim a larger share of the value chain. 2. Enhance Trade and Investment: Let's promote robust intra- and extra-ASEAN trade and investments in mineral-rich states, driving economic growth. 3. Unleash Talent: As the industry evolves, upskilling our workforce is crucial. Let's facilitate cross-sharing within ASEAN and beyond to nurture top-tier talent. 4. Promote Sustainability: Harmonizing regulatory practices in line with environmental standards will ensure sustainable mining activities throughout ASEAN. Exciting times ahead as we pave the way for a collaborative and sustainable future in ASEAN's minerals industry! 🌐💎 #ASEANMineralsConference #MiningCollaboration #EconomicGrowth Special thanks to my colleagues Ying Wan Loh and Samantha Tan for the support in event preparation!

Following the critical minerals roadmap. The United States is approaching Indonesia for a multinational partnership on critical minerals, a 14-nation collaboration alongside the European Union. This partnership, the MSP (Mineral Security Partnership), aims to accelerate the development of sustainable supply chains for critical minerals and facilitate both financial and diplomatic support. Indonesia, for its part, which has rich reserves of minerals such as nickel, copper and bauxite, seeks to promote itself as a production center for batteries and electric vehicles. At Veracio we celebrate initiatives that promote more sustainable mining development. From our expertise, we provide AI solutions focused on the collection of geological data, thus contributing to the efficiency and competitiveness of the industry, and we encourage the decarbonization path that the world is taking.

As the focus on critical minerals in global trade increases Asia House Senior Advisor Daniel Worrall highlights the current dynamics impacting supply chains for a range of key commodities. With contributions from Matilda Buchan, Research Analyst. Some of our key takeaways are ⬇️ Critical minerals will be crucial for the industries of the future, providing the essential components for renewable energy, defence, and data processing. But there remains a lack of integrated and balanced multilateral strategies for their management. China is and will continue to be a key player in critical mineral production, processing, and supply chains. Investments and co-ownerships with other resource-endowed countries will bolster China’s influence.
