Doctor of Geological Sciences on Trump's Requirements: Information about all Strategic Minerals in Ukraine is Classified.
Information about strategic minerals in Ukraine remains closed, despite international interest and calls for its declassification. Data on rare earth metal reserves and other valuable resources are classified.
Professor Volodymyr Mykhailov: 'We know about the location of deposits and extraction, but detailed information about reserves is not openly available.'
The EU is asking Ukraine to declassify the data, but this has not happened yet.
Among the most important minerals in Ukraine that may interest the USA, Volodymyr Mykhailov mentioned titanium, rare earth metals (including scandium), lithium, and graphite.
Volodymyr Mykhailov noted that issues regarding investments and development should be studied within the framework of Ukraine's overall mineral resource base structure.
Recall that Ukraine agreed to a deal with the USA regarding the extraction of minerals after the toughest requirements were lifted.
According to the agreement, Washington renounced the demand for $500 billion in potential revenue, and Kyiv is ready to sign the document.
