"The United States should deepen collaboration with the European Union by aligning offtake, financing, and policy tools to jointly strengthen supply chain resilience and diversify global graphite supply.
Given the scale of capital required to build out Greenland’s infrastructure and mining ecosystem, the United States should pursue a coordinated approach with allies, recognizing that it is neither the sole stakeholder nor the only country seeking access to Greenland’s mineral resources. In June 2025, the European Union designated the Amitsoq graphite project in Greenland as a Strategic Project under its Critical Raw Materials Act, highlighting its importance to Europe’s supply chain resilience. Six months later, in December 2025, Greenland granted a 30-year exploitation license to London-listed GreenRoc Mining Plc for the Amitsoq deposit. Backed by the European Raw Materials Alliance, the project targets graphite, a mineral essential to battery supply chains and defense applications. Located in southern Greenland, the Amitsoq mine was last operational in 1922 and hosts one of the world’s highest-grade graphite deposits. The project is expected to produce approximately 80,000 tons of graphite concentrate annually from around 400,000 tons of ore, yielding high-crystallinity flake graphite suitable for lithium-ion battery anodes."
