Australia Pitches to Be US Fix for China’s Rare Earths Curbs

Australia’s prime minister is set to pitch his nation’s vast resource holdings as a solution to China’s rare earth curbs at a meeting Monday with President Donald Trump, as the US and other countries scramble to diversify supply of critical minerals.

Anthony Albanese is due to meet with Trump at around 11 a.m. in Washington and will aim to use the sit down to secure an agreement with the US on critical minerals. He is also expected to seek assurances on the administration’s commitment to the Aukus pact under which the US is due to help supply Australia with nuclear submarines.
