After ceding the rare earth market to China, the US is playing catch-up as it tries to loosen Beijing’s grip on global supply chains for these minerals. These are critical to manufacturing everything - from smartphones to wind turbines and missile defence systems. Arnold Gay speaks to Executive Producer Pearl Forss and Senior Correspondent Leong Wai Kit, to see what it would take to wean the world off China’s rare earth minerals.

When did we truly become Americans — and what did the Founders actually believe about defending our nation? In this powerful episode, Tara dismantles the myth that America was ever meant to be isolationist. From the ratification of the Bill of Rights in 1791, to the Monroe Doctrine just 30 years later, Tara walks through the history the political class hopes you've forgotten — and why it matters right now. This episode connects early American strategy to modern threats: China's control of rare earth minerals, infiltration through student visas, agricultural warfare, and the global pressure campaign unfolding across our hemisphere. This isn't Iraq. This isn't Afghanistan. This is something very different — and very real. History didn't change.
From Venezuela's oil fields to U.S. geopolitical dominance, we break down how Trump is reshaping the Western Hemisphere
PREVIEW: Alan Tonelson discusses how China dominates the processing of rare earth minerals, creating a stranglehold on materials vital for US defense and automotive sectors. Although China currently has the United States "over a major barrel" regarding these essential magnets, Tonelson doubts this strategic advantage will last indefinitely.
Rare earth minerals may be a misnomer. While they are critical minerals to our modern, digital life, they are not that rare. The problem is finding them in concentrated places where it is economically and environmentally responsible to mine them. This group of 17 metallic elements is crucial for modern technologies due to their magnetic and electrical properties. They can be found in products as diverse as F-35 fighter jets, iPhones, wind turbines, televisions and night-vision goggles. While there are various ways of extracting them, mining is the primary method, though repurposing them from older digital devices is another approach. With all that said, their value to modern economies cannot be overstated. And given China’s stranglehold on the global market and the fact that America only has one functioning mine to date, has been a point of great friction in relations between the two nations. We explore all of these topics on today’s podcast with Ernest Scheyder, the author of “The War Below: Lithium, Copper and the Global Battle to Power Our Lives.”

President Trump and Mohammed bin Salman concluded the Saudi crown prince’s visit to the United States by speaking to more than 400 business leaders.

On October 30, US President Trump and China's leader Xi Jinping met in Busan, South Korea. It was their first face-to-face meeting in 6 years. There was a lot at stake in this meeting for the US and China, as well as for the rest of the world. In my view, the outcome is best described as a fragile truce. The path forward for US-China relations remains uncertain – greater stability and predictability is possible, but not assured. Intense competition across several domains, especially technology, is likely.Today's episode focuses on the Trump-Xi summit and the future of US-China relations, featuring Mr. Dennis Wilder. Dennis is a senior fellow for the Initiative for U.S.-China Dialogue on Global Issues at Georgetown University, where he previously served as the managing director, and assistant professor of the practice in Asian studies in the School of Foreign Service. He served on President George W. Bush's NSC first as director for China and then as senior director for Asian Affairs. He also had a distinguished career in the CIA, where he held many positions, the last of which was senior editor of the Presidential Daily Brief.

Our guest on this week's episode is Brodie Sutherland, CEO of Patriot Critical Minerals Corp. Just yesterday a major issue on the agenda for the meeting between President Trump and China's President Xi's was access to critical minerals, including rare earth minerals. It looks like the Chinese ban on exporting these crucial minerals will now be lifted, but that ban reminds us of how vulnerable our supply chains are to assuring that critical minerals are available for production of semiconductors, military equipment, and the electronics that run our everyday lives. Sutherland leads a company that is looking to begin mining of America's largest deposit of tungsten, located in Nevada. He shares about the importance of assuring a domestic supply of critical minerals. As technologies advance, companies are finding even greater need for digitalization of their supply chains. Nearly 40% of companies surveyed recently say they will allocate more than a quarter of their 2026 budgets to technology investments, according to information from logistics technology platform and solutions provider Ontegos Cloud.This week we've seen continued momentum in companies expanding their networks of self driving cars and trucks. Most of what we're seeing falls into the category of carriers dipping their toe in the water, and trying out pilot projects or proof of concept trials. But the technology does seem to be getting more reliable and these week we see two more examples. We discuss what is being done and how human drivers are reacting to the potential of being replaced.

Anthony Albanese's meeting with Donald Trump went pretty smoothly, with AUKUS, a minerals deal and the Australia-US relationship all receiving strong backing. But past comments about President Trump from Kevin Rudd, Australia's ambassador to the United States, ended up being the biggest point of contention and amusement. In the prime minister's first White House meeting with the president, a multi-billion dollar deal was signed to develop a critical minerals supply from Australia. Today, ABC correspondent Jane Norman tells us what it was like in the White House and why the timing of the meeting couldn't have been better for the prime minister.

Mark Hamrick and Peter Tchir break down the latest trade headlines. Peter talks about the possibility of the Supreme Court ruling against tariffs, which are projected to reach $300 billion in revenue by the end of the year. He thinks we need to “break the rules” on rare earth minerals and bring jobs back to the U.S. Mark argues that the tariff impacts are a “known quantity” and covers their impact on inflation, and thus potentially on Fed rates. He calls them the “primary tool” of the Trump administration and says we need to reset expectations on trade deals.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.

Henk van Alphen was born and raised in Holland. After serving in the army, he sought adventure and travelled to Canada where he and his girlfriend took a float plane into the wilderness, built a cabin, hunted and fished, and lived off the land for a year. It took them seven days to walk back into civilization. Henk then went to college in Canada and began to work part time for a mining operation. His wilderness experience was a perfect match for the needs of mining developers who relied on "grubstakers" to trek into the wild, searching for mineral deposits to develop mines.Henk's career in mining began in Canada, and then led him to extensive works in Argentina, Chile, and other South American countries. He was agnostic about what minerals he sought to develop... working with coal, iron ore, gold, silver, copper, zinc, uranium, and ultimately lithium. He discusses the process of developing mine sites... noting his style and business model of working collaboratively with indigenous populations, making them part of the process which ultimately led to longer term successes.The conversation then shifts to lithium mining. Henk discusses where lithium is found - in brine, clay, and pegmatites - and how it is mined. His work involved extracting lithium from brine in "salars" or drying lakes. This was not well received because in arid countries, solar evaporation of the brine wastes precious water... so he and his colleagues have focused on DLE or Direct Lithium Extraction.Ted and Henk discuss the value of lithium, a mineral at the core of the clean energy revolution. Henk is articulate about the role of lithium in electric vehicles, and in laptops and cellphones. He notes China's preeminence in this field. While other battery chemistries are being examined, Henk notes that advances in lithium batteries are extending EV's range, making EVs clear winners in the automotive future. And he posits that lithium will be with us for some time even if other chemistries are promising and may ultimately replace lithium. That will be, he jokes, when he is six feet under!
The state of Wyoming was put in the spotlight for a mining operation that uncovered rare Earth minerals, which the USA has largely relied on China for. With this discovery, the mineral industry in Wyoming could skyrocket.

America is sitting on a $2 trillion opportunity and no one's talking about it. In this episode of The P.A.S. Report, Professor Nick Giordano breaks down the recent U.S. discoveries of massive lithium and rare earth deposits that could reshape the global economy, restore American manufacturing, and end our reliance on foreign adversaries like China. Now that President Trump is back in office, his administration is taking aggressive steps to fast-track development and unleash America's mineral dominance. But will the bureaucrats, eco-activists, and foreign interests succeed in derailing this opportunity? This episode reveals the stakes and the path forward. Episode Highlights: Uncovered: Trillions of dollars in mineral deposits and the U.S. states poised to become richer than Dubai Why these mineral discoveries could spark a new era of American economic dominance How the Trump administration is cutting red tape and blocking China from controlling America's critical resources
Most electronic devices you use – your phone, laptop, earbuds – require certain materials called rare earth minerals to function. These minerals also power a wide range of other things critical to our lives like cars, aircraft engines, medical equipment. The U.S. imports most of its supply of rare earth elements from China, which given the current climate of global trade, has led experts to wonder: any way we get more of these minerals here at home? Scott McWhorter, a distinguished fellow in the Strategic Energy Institute at Georgia Institute of Technology, joins The Excerpt to dive into the possibilities.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Michael Savage discusses economic warfare and critical minerals with Edward Fishman, a leading expert on economic statecraft. Fishman explains the significance of critical minerals like graphite, titanium, and rare earth elements in the geopolitical landscape as President Trump and Ukranian President Zelensky negotiate the high stakes minerals deal. They discuss the implications of U.S. reliance on China for these materials and the strategic importance of diversifying supply chains. Fishman also shares insights from his New York Times Bestseller "Chokepoints: American Power in the Age of Economic Warfare," detailing how economic leverage is used in modern warfare. The discussion touches upon historical economic policies, the complexities of U.S.-China relations, and potential strategies for strengthening American economic resilience.
