The agreement between NLC India and IREL is part of a broader effort to secure mineral resources essential for modern technologies. Rare earth elements and critical minerals such as lithium, cobalt, and nickel are key inputs for clean energy technologies and electronic devices. This strategic move allows both public sector companies to pool resources, expertise, and infrastructure in identifying and developing such assets.
The scope of the partnership is not limited to Indian assets alone. NLC India and IREL will explore acquisition opportunities in international markets where reserves of rare earths and other critical minerals remain untapped or underdeveloped. The aim is to create long-term value by integrating India into secure and stable mineral supply chains at a global level.
