The rare earth industry has stopped being a supply chain and started behaving like a lever of power. In a recent Critical Minerals Institute (CMI) Masterclass, Melissa “Mel” Sanderson framed the moment with the kind of blunt historical bookends that turn policy talk into something closer to strategy: in 2011, she argued, “today began” when China curtailed Japan’s access to rare earths—an early signal that minerals could be used as ...

In an era when supply chains are weaponized and stockpiles have quietly vanished, tungsten has moved from an obscure industrial input to the metal no serious power can afford to ignore. That transformation — from “very unsexy” to what one analyst calls one of the “sexiest” critical minerals in the market — was the focus of the Critical Minerals Institute’s Tungsten Masterclass, where the conversation kept circling back to a single ...
