Fusion42 · 7 September 2026 · Fusion42 review

The US and China are competing for control of critical minerals essential to future technologies and energy transition, with China dominating mining and processing, while the US invests heavily to build alternative supply chains and reduce dependency.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Industrial.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway

You face a constricted supply chain as China controls critical mineral refining and downstream production. You must accelerate building alternatives now as the US cannot quickly replicate China's integrated control but can open new regional partnerships.
