U.S. Congress Energy and Minerals Market Outlook Hearing
The U.S. Senate Committee on Energy and Natural Resources will examine the outlook for energy and mineral markets. This is the second hearing in just over a year focusing on the supply chain for the production of batteries aimed at electric vehicles and energy storage, two fast growing sectors. Minerals such as lithium, cobalt, nickel and graphite are in high demand and U.S. senators are concerned that China is currently leading the way in mining and processing these key commodities.
