GRAPHITE ONE APPLAUDS SENATOR LISA MURKOWSKI'S ADDRESS GRAPHITE ONE APPLAUDS SENATOR LISA MURKOWSKI'S ADDRESS CALLING FOR MINERAL POLICY PRIORITY
Graphite One Inc. has commented on statements made by Senator Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), who mentioned Graphite One in an address recorded for Benchmark Week 2024 taking place in Los Angeles from Nov. 12 to Nov. 14, 2024.
In her address, Ms. Murkowski stated: "I believe that minerals should only grow as a policy priority because, frankly, there is no longer a choice. If we want the United States to lead on advanced technologies and the industries of the future, if we truly want to ensure our national security and international competitiveness, we have to start at the start, with minerals, and build complete supply chains."
Ms. Murkowski called for several steps critical to building mineral supply chains, including a revised critical minerals list, refilling the Defense Production Act (DPA) account annually, permitting reform, processing reshoring, "and, perhaps most crucially, permits and permission to proceed for projects like Graphite One in Alaska."
"As the U.S. Congress's thought leader on critical minerals, Senator Murkowski's call for a comprehensive policy on mining-to-manufacturing supply chains comes at pivotal moment," stated Anthony Huston, president and chief executive officer of Graphite One. "Graphite One is committed to do its part to end decades of U.S. graphite dependency and provide a reliable source of a technology material essential to the U.S. economy and the systems that secure our national defence."
