NASA Obstructs Key Metal Discovery in America
An American mining company has discovered massive deposits of tungsten in Nevada, a strategic mineral used in defense industries. The United States has not been mining it for a decade and currently depends on imports controlled by China. The reports indicate that the value of these resources is estimated at around $152 billion, with reserves reaching 1.78 million tons. However, the project's development faces obstacles from NASA due to the area's use in satellite communications, even though this mineral is vital for national security and has seen a 600% price increase since February 2025. The project encounters technical and administrative challenges, and its development is expected to take years. Meanwhile, the U.S. government and mining companies are showing increasing interest in the large stockpile of this critical mineral.
