This book was released on 2008-03-11 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minerals are part of virtually every product we use. Common examples include copper used in electrical wiring and titanium used to make airplane frames and paint pigments. The Information Age has ushered in a number of new mineral uses in a number of products including cell phones (e.g., tantalum) and liquid crystal displays (e.g., indium). For some minerals, such as the platinum group metals used to make cataytic converters in cars, there is no substitute. If the supply of any given mineral were to become restricted, consumers and sectors of the U.S. economy could be significantly affected. Risks to minerals supplies can include a sudden increase in demand or the possibility that natural ores can be exhausted or become too difficult to extract. Minerals are more vulnerable to supply restrictions if they come from a limited number of mines, mining companies, or nations. Baseline information on minerals is currently collected at the federal level, but no established methodology has existed to identify potentially critical minerals. This book develops such a methodology and suggests an enhanced federal initiative to collect and analyze the additional data needed to support this type of tool.

Book excerpt: The United States depends on foreign sources for many strategic and essential minerals. Secure supplies of such minerals are crucial to the nation's economic and military well-being, but federal policies with regard to these minerals have continued to vacillate. This volume considers the minerals availability issue from a number of perspectives. In

Volume III, Area Reports: International, is published as four separate reports. These regional reports contain the latest available minerals data on more than 180 foreign countries and discuss the importance of minerals to the economies of these nations and the United States. Each report begins with an overview of the region's mineral industries during the year. It continues with individual country chapters that examine the mining, refining, processing, and use of minerals in each country of the region and how each country's mineral industry relates to U.S. industry. Most chapters include production tables and industry structure tables, information about Government policies and programs that affect the country's mineral industry, and an outlook section.

Download or read book Critical Mineral Resources of the United States written by K. J. Schulz and published by Geological Survey. This book was released on 2017 with total page 868 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the importance and dependence of specific mineral commodities increase, so does concern about their supply. The United States is currently 100 percent reliant on foreign sources for 20 mineral commodities and imports the majority of its supply of more than 50 mineral commodities. Mineral commodities that have important uses and face potential supply disruption are critical to American economic and national security. However, a mineral commodity's importance and the nature of its supply chain can change with time; a mineral commodity that may not have been considered critical 25 years ago may be critical today, and one considered critical today may not be so in the future. The U.S. Geological Survey has produced this volume to describe a select group of mineral commodities currently critical to our economy and security. For each mineral commodity covered, the authors provide a comprehensive look at (1) the commodity's use; (2) the geology and global distribution of the mineral deposit types that account for the present and possible future supply of the commodity; (3) the current status of production, reserves, and resources in the United States and globally; and (4) environmental considerations related to the commodity's production from different types of mineral deposits. The volume describes U.S. critical mineral resources in a global context, for no country can be self-sufficient for all its mineral commodity needs, and the United States will always rely on global mineral commodity supply chains. This volume provides the scientific understanding of critical mineral resources required for informed decisionmaking by those responsible for ensuring that the United States has a secure and sustainable supply of mineral commodities.

Download or read book The United States' Increasing Dependence on Foreign Sources of Minerals and Opportunities to Rebuild and Improve the Supply Chain in the United States written by Committee on Energy and Natural Resources United States Senate and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-04-03 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Minerals are important because they are the building blocks of our modern society, from the smallest computer chips to the tallest skyscrapers and just about everything in-between. Minerals are fundamental to fracking, MRI machines, and jet engines. The homes that we live in, the food we eat, the cars we drive, and the computers we use, all depend on minerals. Almost every product in our nation is made from, or uses, minerals, yet more and more these minerals are now being produced somewhere else. According to the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS), we imported at least 50 percent of our supply of 50 different minerals, including 100 percent of our supply of 20 of them, just last year in 2016. That is a major increase from our foreign dependence levels in 1978 when this data was first collected, and it suggests that we are on the verge of replacing our dependence on foreign oil with an equally, if not even more damaging, dependence on foreign minerals. Rare earth elements are perhaps the best-known example. With the Mountain Pass Mine in California now closed, we once again import 100 percent of our supply of rare earths, exposing us to potential supply shortages and price volatility while reducing our international leverage and attractiveness for manufacturing. It is the same story with graphite, palladium, indium, manganese, niobium and many others. Our foreign mineral dependence is a threat to our ability to create jobs in this country. It limits our growth, our competitiveness, and our national security.
