Stardust Power is advancing permitting and site preparation work in Muskogee as it aims to produce up to 50,000 metric tons of battery-grade lithium carbonate annually. 

This technology enables faster data-driven decisions, optimizes drilling strategies and accelerates exploration timelines.

Canada dominates potash exports to the U.S. but depends heavily on imported phosphate – new critical minerals policies and government incentives are driving expanded drilling and development activity across North America.

The program will include approximately 1,200 meters of large-diameter core drilling across 15 holes. 

A new $1.4 billion agreement between ReElement Technologies, Vulcan Elements, and the U.S. Department of War aims to establish a fully domestic rare earth magnet supply chain critical to national security and clean energy manufacturing.

NASA’s latest lunar mission, Polar Resources Ice Mining Experiment 1, just pulled off a cosmic mic drop

EPA Regional Administrator Cyrus Western said the approval supports both resource development and environmental responsibility

Unlike land-based mining, ocean ecosystems are less understood and recover more slowly, which raises the stakes for mistakes.

For American miners, the 2025 Mining Armenia Forum is more than a recap of a faraway conference. It’s a mirror. 

These white papers are funded by the Rivian Foundation, underscoring the growing interest from clean-tech companies in securing domestic sources of minerals for electric vehicles, batteries, and renewable infrastructure.
