Blue Moon Metals Secures North America's Top Germanium District - AktieGo Blue Moon Metals acquires the Gage Project, consolidating the only primary germanium and gallium district in the western world. Here's why it matters.

From Teck & Liberty Gold deals → Blue Moon now owns the heart of North America’s germanium district. Past-producing Apex Mine + 20+ untested prospects = serious exploration firepower ahead. Who’s watching $MOON? 📈

Blue Moon Metals Secures North America's Top Germanium District - AktieGo Blue Moon Metals acquires the Gage Project, consolidating the only primary germanium and gallium district in the western world. Here's why it matters.

China dominates ~80% of global germanium. Blue Moon Metals just locked up North America’s TOP germanium & gallium district around the historic Apex Mine. This isn’t just mining — it’s national security. 🇺🇸🔋

Europe needs to act now on its metals vulnerability Economic sovereignty and security depend on access to minerals and the ability to smelt and refine them

CRU's data on germanium are cited in Financial Times' latest opinion piece. Germanium is among the metals crucial for defence and high-tech applications. Read more.

China Opens the Critical Mineral Tap, but Keeps Its Hand Firmly on the Valve

China just hit pause on its ban of gallium, germanium, and antimony exports to the U.S. — a one-year truce in the critical minerals war.

A relief for tech and defense sectors, but make no mistake, Beijing still holds the switch.

Germanium's Super Glow-Up From Boring Chip Filler to Zero-Resistance Quantum Sidekick – No Cryo-Fridge Required!

#Germanium #Quantum

The AI race is really an electro-industrial race, led by China While America pours money into intelligence, China dominates the minerals and manufacturing that will run it.

After years of U.S. restrictions on advanced semiconductors, #Beijing is fighting back by cutting off exports of the raw materials that make those chips possible: rare earths, #graphite, #gallium, #germanium — the ingredients inside motors, power electronics, defense systems, & data centers.
