Minerals in Minutes : USMCA
We’re excited to launch Minerals in Minutes, Silverado Policy Accelerator’s new video series breaking down the most important developments in critical minerals in just a few minutes.

In our first episode, we unpack Silverado’s latest report, The Way Forward for North American Critical Mineral Security and Resiliency, to explain why a renewed U.S.–Mexico–Canada Agreement (USMCA) should include a Critical Minerals Security and Resiliency Annex.
An industry-specific annex would help the United States, Canada, and Mexico to:
⚙️ Fortify North American critical minerals supply chains
🛡️ Counter China’s coercive economic actions
♻️ Promote a North American mineral recovery and recycling initiative
Stay tuned for more Minerals in Minutes episodes in 2026 as we dive deeper into our USMCA recommendations, new data dashboards, and the latest critical minerals policy developments.
