A joint statement was made yesterday in Paris at the @G7 Critical Minerals Investment forum. The statement was signed by mining companies (including Ivanhoe Atlantic), investors, financiers and industry stakeholders, who have each pledged to combine efforts in the development of critical mineral projects across the G7 countries.
Rome wasn’t built in a day. Great achievements take time and persistence. The joint statement marks an important first step in mobilizing the capital, partnerships and long-term commitment required to build resilient and diversified supply chains among trusted partners… and the Ivanhoe Group looks forward to doing our bit to support this great initiative.

Very insightful analysis by @DrJPPham for @NEWSMAX on great need of America's navy for high-grade iron ore - found in African nations like Guinea. But here again China was in the door first, so US needs to quickly catch up.

The joint statement is out from yesterday’s #G7#CriticalMinerals Investment Forum hosted by #France🇨🇵 as @G7 chair. I was honored to be part of the delegation from the #USA🇺🇲 as well as to sign for @IvanhoeAtlantic along our global private-sector peers.

New @AfricaACSS study shows #China🇨🇳 now not only operates, finances, or holds stakes in roughly 30% of #Africa’s ports, but also is a big financier & operator of linked road, rail & warehousing infrastructure. The #USA🇺🇲 needs to catch up strategically.

My @NEWSMAX op-ed on how #China🇨🇳’s cornering the global supply of ultra-high-grade #iron ore puts @USNavy shipbuilding plans at risk & what the #USA🇺🇲 can do about it — and how U.S.-backed infrastructure & an American company, @IvanhoeAtlantic, can help. https://t.co/q6kzgtbiSv
Real GDP growth may not be everything, as my friend Prof. @LopesInsights notes, but it is something — and a very significant something at that — esp. when #Africa is leading the world, including with two of the top three fastest growing economies being #Ethiopia🇪🇹 & #Guinea🇬🇳.
America’s shipbuilding capacity has atrophied to just 8 commercial vessels last year, while our strategic competitors surge ahead. Closing this gap demands urgent reindustrialization: modern shipyards, resilient supply chains, and reliable sources of high-grade iron ore to feed American steel. @IvanhoeAtlantic is proud to be part of the solution—developing one of the world’s highest-grade iron ore deposits to strengthen U.S. and allied industrial might.

Pleased to join a plenary discussion with @Mercuria President Daniel Jaeggi & @IvanhoeMines_ Executive Co-Chair @robert_ivanhoe at the Villars Summit on “Minerals & Metals: The Critical Supply Chain Beneath the Transition.” I emphasized geopolitical implications of transactions.
Why is high grade iron ore important for the U.S. economy? 🇺🇸
It is a critical feedstock for American furnaces making stronger steel products with less energy for projects like shipbuilding and munitions.
Hear how American company @IvanhoeAtlantic is securing supply chains vital for U.S. national defense.

Why are secure supply chains critical for U.S. national security? 🇺🇸
Our industrial base depends on reliable, diversified inputs from resilient partners to combat those who weaponize dependencies.
Find out how American company @IvanhoeAtlantic is contributing to this effort by delivering the world’s highest grade iron ore project through the Liberty Corridor in West Africa.

With expiration of the “myopic focus” of its climate action plan, #USA🇺🇲’s @SecScottBessent calls on @WorldBankGroup to “move quickly to support the policies, projects and associated infrastructure needed” to help diversify #CriticalMinerals#SupplyChains.

🇺🇸Ivanhoe Atlantic & Guinea 🇬🇳: Securing U.S. Supply Chains in West Africa
Together with @EmbassyConakry Charge d'Affaires Mary E. Daschbach, Ivanhoe Atlantic COO Kevin McLean and SMFG Director General Oumar Sylla recently met with Minister Djiba Diakite (Chief of Staff to the President) and Minister Aly Seydouba Soumah (Advisor to the President) in Conakry.
This productive audience with the President’s chief advisors is testament to our close collaboration with the Government of Guinea as we bring online the world’s highest grade iron ore project.
Not only will Kon Kweni deliver thousands of jobs and new economic development opportunities through direct American investment into Guinea, the project forms a key element in securing new supply chains in West Africa for the United States.
With access to port and rail secured through Liberia, and final mine permitting in progress in Guinea, we stand ready to deliver.
