Initiative summary:
To achieve the green and digital transitions, the EU must significantly increase and diversify its critical raw materials supply, strengthen circularity and support research and innovation. The Commission will propose measures to reinforce EU monitoring capacities and strengthen both the EU value chain - through the identification of mineral resources and raw materials projects in the EU's strategic interest, with a high level of environmental protection – and the EU external policies on CRMs.
