Description

As the energy transition intensifies demand for lithium, cobalt, and rare earth elements, this volume examines the policy and technology dimensions of securing ASEAN critical mineral supply chains against geopolitical and market disruption. Emerging technology applications, including artificial intelligence and secondary mining, are assessed alongside country case studies for their role in achieving sustainable battery development and net-zero targets.

Coverage spans rare earth supply scenarios for the ASEAN region, EV battery supply chain risk in China, refining and secondary mining opportunities for Australia and the Asia-Pacific, intergovernmental policy dialogues, and rare earth financing strategies. The empirical analysis combines systematic review, econometric estimation, and country-level case comparison across Australia, India, and China.

This is the companion volume to CLNZ Books' Vol. 1: Lessons from Economics and Finance, rounding out coverage for readers tracking the full policy-to-market picture of critical mineral security.
