The UN Economic Commission for Africa stated that demand for critical energy transition minerals—including cobalt, copper, graphite, lithium, manganese, nickel, and platinum group metals—could more than triple by 2030 under net-zero scenarios, with Africa holding approximately 30% of global reserves. This concentration of supply in one continent creates strategic geopolitical leverage and supply chain risk for energy transition technologies globally.
Read original →Grit Metals Corp. appointed Jake Clark as CEO with a strategic focus on lithium exploration. This leadership change signals renewed operational focus in critical minerals supply amid growing battery and EV demand.
Read original →AI data center power demand is colliding with aging electrical grid infrastructure constraints, creating a bottleneck in the energy transition. Resolving this tension requires simultaneous investment in grid modernization and critical minerals (lithium for storage, copper for transmission).
