  1. A fairly significant amount of value add in lithium and rare earth minerals is in the development stage in Western Australia. I'd also add graphite to the list of critical minerals that Australia can supply for green tech. Several good projects are in the pipeline and Australian companies seem to have control of a large number of deposits in Tanzania and Malawi.

  2.  @markfrombriz  Totally agree. We could follow a path similar to Indonesia. They banned export of unprocessed Nickel. Since then, billions of $ in Nickel processing facilities have come into Indonesia. Mexico has nationalised Lithium and Chile is moving in that direction. Maybe we could add an export tax to unprocessed green minerals. Just enough to make it attractive to invest in processing in Australia.

  3.  @tim211292  SA is a real up and coming mining region. Copper and graphite spring to mind immediately. Renascour is going to process graphite from its deposit in SA. So that's great news.
