BC can play a significant role in providing more of the critical minerals the 🇺🇸and 🇨🇦 need to decarbonize and meet our defence and national security objectives. 

Our province has or produces 16 of the 50 minerals the US has identified as being critical to the nation’s economic and national security. In 2022, 7% of BC’s exports to the US were critical minerals and metals including aluminum, germanium, gallium, indium, lead and zinc.
