U.S. Strategic Metals, a critical minerals and strategic metals processor, has announced a partnership with AlphaSierra One, an advisory and asset acquisition platform.

This collaboration aims to address critical gaps in the US supply chain for strategic minerals and enhance energy independence.

The alliance comes at a crucial time as the US prioritises the security of its critical minerals supply chain.

This partnership will see U.S. Strategic Metals and AlphaSierra One combine their complementary expertise to enhance the extraction, processing and distribution of critical minerals and strategic metals within the US.

The goal is to reduce reliance on foreign sources while supporting domestic industries that are essential to national security and clean energy development.

The collaboration will concentrate on maximising opportunities that align with federal initiatives such as funding programmes and partnerships, designed to tackle vulnerabilities within the critical minerals sector.

By merging U.S. Strategic Metals’ processing technologies with AlphaSierra One’s expertise in strategic advisory, the partnership is well-placed to deliver significant outcomes for both stakeholders and investors.

AlphaSierra One executive chairman C. Derek Campbell said: “The United States is at a critical juncture where securing our domestic supply chain for strategic minerals is not only an economic imperative but also a matter of national security.

“This strategic alliance underscores our commitment to driving actionable solutions that align with US Government priorities, ensuring energy independence and sustainable growth in 2025 and beyond.”

Research suggests that more than 90% of the essential minerals required for defence systems and clean energy technologies are presently processed outside the US, highlighting the pressing need for domestic processing capabilities.

U.S. Strategic Metals co-founder and CEO Stacy W Hastie said: “This relationship with AlphaSierra One represents a powerful alignment of expertise and shared vision. Our goal is to create a more resilient supply chain that not only meets the immediate needs of today but also positions the United States as a global leader in the sustainable production and management of critical minerals.”

This strategic alliance offers considerable potential for investors interested in backing companies at the crossroads of advanced mineral processing and national security priorities.

Furthermore, the collaboration highlights the increasing importance of public-private partnerships in strengthening the US industrial base, ensuring a robust supply chain for critical minerals.
