Europe

Europe’s rare earth strategy is a race against time to meet the mandates of the Critical Raw Materials Act. This category tracks the high-stakes exploration of Greenland’s massive southern fjord deposits (Tanbreez and Kvanefjeld), which represent Europe’s best hope for resource sovereignty. We also monitor Nordic developments in Sweden and Norway, focusing on the extraction of rare earths from historical mining tailings and the development of circular economy recycling facilities.

Key Focus: Greenland’s regulatory landscape, Sweden’s REE-rich tailings, and EU-wide “sovereign” mineral investment.
