Bill overview
The Critical Minerals Security Act of 2024 directs the Department of the Interior to conduct comprehensive reports on the global availability and ownership of critical minerals and rare earth elements. Specifically, it requires assessments of which resources are controlled by foreign entities of concern, details on existing mining operations, and identifies cases where divestment was forced. The bill also establishes a process to assist U.S. citizens seeking to divest from foreign mining operations and mandates the development of a strategy for collaborating with allies to advance domestic and international mining and processing technologies.
