The Australian Government will establish a $2 billion loan facility for domestic critical minerals projects to help secure vital supplies of resources needed to drive a new energy economy and support future jobs.

This $2 billion facility will be used to get new projects off the ground for minerals including rare earths, lithium, magnesium and nickel for use in advanced technologies such as renewable energy, aerospace, defence, automotive and electric vehicles, telecommunications and agri-tech.
