In Mining

John Price
Managing Director
AMI

AMI, in partnership with a dozen very bright students from the University of Miami, is pleased to release a report that goes a long way to answering the highly politicized question: “who will control Latin America’s critical minerals over the next decade?”

In Latin America, the two most dominating strategic minerals are lithium and copper. Both metals play a crucial role in tomorrow’s global economy led by AI, electrification, digitization and technological devices of many kinds. South America suddenly finds itself the target of envy and geopolitical rivalry as mining interests from North America, China, Europe, India and Australia seek to claim their stake.

For American and other western diplomatic interests, leveling up their access to critical minerals vis-à-vis China has become a strategic imperative. These reports provide some insights on what it will take to partner with Latin America’s leading copper jurisdictions.
