CRITICAL CONTINENT

CRITICAL CONTINENT: The US is looking to Africa to help loosen a Chinese stranglehold on battery metals and reduce Russia's influence over the market for other minerals, US Deputy Treasury Secretary Wally Adeyemo told Reuters during a recent visit to a platinum mine in Marikana, owned by Sibanye-Stillwater. Adeyemo (right) with Sibanye Stillwater CEO Neal Froneman during his visit to a platinum mine where he said: “Africa is going to play a huge role. A lot of critical minerals are located here.” Photograph: Siphiwe Sibeko for Reuters.
