As the response to climate change intensifies and the transition to low-carbon energy accelerates, global demand for critical minerals, which are essential materials for new energy industries, will surge. As a result, competition for the minerals will escalate globally. China has an insufficient resource endowment of critical minerals such as copper, nickel, manganese, lithium and cobalt, most of which are supplied by foreign sources.

摘要

As the response to climate change intensifies and the transition to low-carbon energy accelerates, global demand for critical minerals, which are essential materials for new energy industries, will surge. As a result, competition for the minerals will escalate globally. China has an insufficient resource endowment of critical minerals such as copper, nickel, manganese, lithium and cobalt, most of which are supplied by foreign sources.
