📖 Key Information

Critical raw materials (CRM), also referred to as critical materials or critical minerals, are raw materials designated by governments as critical for their economies. There is no single list of such materials, as the list varies from country to country, as does the definition of "critical". Critical raw materials usually include technology-critical elements, rare-earth elements, and/or strategic materials.
