Economic superpowers make progress in trade war, ensuring rare earth supply, awaiting final approval from leaders.

A fully integrated rare earth supply chain within the U.S. is doable—with government support and private-sector innovation.

“First we had to get sort of the negativity out and now we can go forward,” U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick told reporters after the meetings.

U.S. and Chinese officials said they had agreed on a framework to get their trade truce back on track and remove China's export restrictions on rare earths.

The announcement came as trade talks wrapped up in London, with critical minerals high on agenda.

‘Full magnets, and any necessary rare earths, will be supplied, up front, by China,’ Trump says in online post following trade talks in London.

U.S. President Donald Trump said magnets and "any necessary rare earths" will be supplied up front by China as part of a trade agreement.

President Donald Trump confirmed Wednesday that the United States and China have come to an agreement over trade and the acquisition of rare earth minerals.
