The U.S. and Australia have deepened cooperation through the Critical Minerals Framework Agreement to secure supply chains for essential minerals like lithium, cobalt, and rare earths. This partnership aims to reduce dependence on China by developing mining and refining projects in trusted allied countries, supporting sectors such as defense, electric vehicles, and advanced technology.
