26 Outline Market overview Broader context CMI 26
27 Broader context The periodic table is under siege Observations Demand growing quickly...supply is fragile: Insecure, or Slow to catch up with demand growth, or Constrained by fundamental geochemical scarcity Leading to high or volatile prices, physical unavailability (or both) Critical element: essential in use, subject to supply risk 27

30 Each element has its own story Concentrated production: small number of mines, companies, or countries Sometimes linked with geopolitical risks Import dependence is the wrong way to measure risk e.g., Be, rare earths, platinum group 30
31 Each element has its own story Concentrated production Geologic scarcity average crustal abundance nuances degree of concentration above the average by geologic processes extent of historical exploration e.g., Re, Rh, Te 31
32 Source: U.S. Geological Survey 32
33 Each element has its own story Concentrated production Geologic scarcity Reliance on byproduct production Supply may be (a) unresponsive to increased price of byproduct and (b) very responsive to reduced price of main product e.g., In/Zn, Te/Cu, Ga/bauxite 33

38 Broader context The periodic table is under siege Each element has its own story Criticality is dynamic what is critical today may not be critical tomorrow (and vice versa) Small, fragmented, non-transparent markets volatility; risks to investors, producers and users Market forces provide powerful incentives to alleviate criticality, but governments have essential roles 38
39 Outline Market overview Broader context CMI 39
40 - An energy innovation hub, U.S. Department of Energy - Eliminating supply risks, enabling energy technologies 40
41 CMI overview What: Research to reduce supply risks for materials essential to clean-energy technologies; up to $120 million over 5 years Why: To remove impediments to technology development and deployment, to accelerate innovation How: Develop technologies to (a) increase & diversify supply and (b) reduce demand Who: A consortium of 18 institutions, led by the Ames Laboratory 41
42 42
43 The CMI Partnership 43
44 - What is critical depends on who, where, and when you ask - CMI s initial focus: - 7 elements - 4 technologies - magnets - phosphors - batteries - photovoltaic materials 44
45 Produce More, Use Less - Research across the supply chain to: - Diversify global supply chains - Develop substitute materials - Enhance efficiency of use, re-use, & recycling - Support the activities above 45
46 CMI today and in the future Mantra: eliminate supply risks, enable energy technologies How? Innovate to produce more, use less Develop the next generation of scientists and technical experts Anticipate rather than respond to material-supply crises Finally: develop mutually beneficial international collaborations 46
47 Final thoughts Market overview, broader context, CMI Among the key overall points Rare earths are one of several critical minerals Rare earths are not rare in a geologic sense, rather their supply is fragile because of geographically concentrated production and immature process technology Market forces will go a long way to solving criticality (but take time); governments play several essential roles 47
