A bid to safeguard mineral wealth
Christa Case Bryant
Editor
There鈥檚 a modern-day global 鈥済old rush鈥� for rare earth reserves, and Brazil is looking to rewrite the playbook on who stands to benefit from extracting raw materials. Superpowers want these critical minerals for their economies and warfare. Brazil, which has the world鈥檚 second-largest reserves, is determined not to be exploited as it has been in the past, writes Constance Malleret today.
She highlights an interesting idea from Jos茅 Puppim, a professor in S茫o Paulo: the creation of a global trust to manage the production and trading of critical minerals fairly, without geopolitics interfering.
