This strategy has nothing to do with meeting the needs of our energy transition and everything to do with bolstering the profits of arms, technology & automotive giants. Over half of "critical" minerals play no major role in the green transition according to research by @globaljusticenow.bsky.social

The strategy lists 23 "growth minerals", including lithium, nickel and copper, aiming to fuel an expansion of mining both in the UK and globally for minerals “significant for the future of UK-based manufacturing across the relevant growth sectors”.

The strategy anticipates that by 2035 “demand for copper will almost double, while demand for lithium will increase by 1,100%”. It includes targets for 10% of UK demand to be met through domestic production and no more than 60% supplied by any 1 country by 2035.
