Kitco NEWS | China's Mineral Manipulation Strategy & Dominance Threatens the West - Heather Exner-Pirot @kitco | Uploaded June 2024 | Updated October 2024, 5 hours ago.
Jeremy Szafron, Anchor at Kitco News, interviews Heather Exner-Pirot, Director of Energy, Natural Resources, and Environment at the Macdonald-Laurier Institute, a Canadian think tank known for its independent and non-partisan analysis of national public policy issues. The interview focuses
on Canada's strategic blockade against the sale of critical rare earth materials to a Chinese firm. Exner-Pirot unpacks the complexities of Canada's efforts to strengthen its control over essential minerals critical for advanced technologies and defense, mirroring initiatives in the United States where the Biden administration actively bolsters its critical minerals supply chain. The discussion also explores the broader implications for international trade, the challenges for junior miners in Canada facing tight capital markets, and strategic responses to China's dominant position in the global market.
