Critical minerals play an important and often over looked role in society. These minerals and elements are key components in consumer electronics, renewable energy production, medical research, the defense industry, and many more technologies. Many critical minerals are known to occur throughout Wyoming. Some were mined historically, others are currently being produced, and still others are in various phases of exploration. As the U.S. works to establish a domestic supply chain for these minerals, knowledge of their location, extent, and character is essential.
