Major CleanTech manufacturers are now seeking sustainable sources of critical minerals for their products, that can be tracked as conflict-free and produced in both environmentally and socially responsible ways. This includes creating new economic development opportunities for Indigenous communities. Closed mine sites can now offer such opportunities that meet these criteria, while new critical minerals operations can be developed at a modest scale to reduce impacts, while using renewable energy sources to keep GHG emissions low.
