Now, more than ever, the UK needs to secure supply chains and withstand fluctuations in international politics.  There is an urgency to identify new sources of critical minerals, invest in extraction technologies and increase Government support for recycling initiatives. We need to support a robust minerals extraction industry for the UK and support the wider sector.

 

The CMA enables Industry to generate a collective voice when outlining concerns and future recommendations, providing a direct line of communication between Industry and Government. 

 

Recognising the importance of high standards across the sector, the CMA develops peer-to-peer sharing of best practice for companies. Our aim is to improve societal perceptions of the sector by showcasing the economic and social benefits of critical mineral companies and highlighting the Industry’s importance for the UK economy.
