Join SAFE’s Center for Critical Minerals Strategy on Wednesday, October 28 for a webinar launching its upcoming issue brief, “Retain, Recycle, Secure: The Role and Limits of Export Restrictions.”
The webinar and brief will examine how export restrictions and domestic allocation requirements have affected the recovery of critical minerals from scrap and strategic recyclable feedstocks, including battery black mass, tungsten waste and scrap, copper-bearing scrap, and rare earth magnet materials.
Joined by representatives from the U.S. government and industry experts, the discussion will consider when restrictions on exports may support U.S. critical mineral security and domestic processing capacity—and where they may present disruptions to collection markets, established recycling networks, or supply chains with allies and partners.
