Investing to Make Canada a Global Critical Minerals Superpower - Canada.ca

Canada has announced a $50 million investment in 32 projects to develop its critical mineral value chains. This initiative aims to create jobs, support economic opportunities, and enhance energy security by reducing reliance on authoritarian governments. The funding will support infrastructure development, innovation, and data collection, with a focus on Indigenous community engagement. Notable projects include Denison Mines’ work on uranium projects in Saskatchewan and E3 Lithium’s Clearwater Project in Alberta. The initiative is part of Canada’s strategy to become a leader in sustainable and responsibly sourced critical minerals.
