So has this article been updated or expounded upon since the actual EO came out? I heard, and correct me if I'm wrong, but is it true Biden is shutting down American mines and buying the REM from China exclusively?
There's been a lot of contradictory reporting on this, so it's hard to pick out exactly how the Biden admin will treat all this – although it does seem in support of some US mines, including Resolution Copper. Regarding REMs, the executive order's 100-day research period only just finished, and there's not much information out. In general, the Biden admin hasn't shown much indication that it would shut down US mines, and any REMs outside China will take years to scale up.
