The New South Wales (NSW) government intends to prioritise domestic manufacturing, skills, and training opportunities in the critical minerals and high-tech metals mining industry as it develops a new strategy for the sector.

The government is set to begin consultations with industry players for the drafting of its new Critical Minerals and High-Tech Metals Strategy, which aims to ensure a stable supply of critical minerals and high-tech elements to boost economic growth and regional employment.
