Resources Minister Madeleine King says the federal government will reveal more details regarding its proposed strategic reserve of critical minerals prior to the election on 3 May. King adds that China’s decision to impose export controls on rare earths such as dysprosium and terbium has underlined the federal government’s decision to establish a strategic reserve. King says the export restrictions are concerning but not surprising, given that China has imposed similar bans in the past. The latest export restrictions were in response to the Trump administration’s reciprocal tariffs regime, but are not limited to the US.
