Challenges and Issues in Critical Minerals Financing
Come along to this session to hear what the Critical Minerals market is saying and what may be possible.
Critical minerals are a vital input into Australia’s energy transition (which requires multiples of existing supply); there are economic and sovereign imperatives to diversify supply; and international supply chains are already under pressure.
The race to secure new supplies of critical minerals provides opportunities for Australia and Australian businesses - but is not without its challenges, including how the funding and financing comes together and where it is sourced from.
