Anthony Marchese, chairman of Texas Mineral Resources Corp., will speak at the Harvard Business School's 2025 Technology and National Security Conference, addressing critical national security challenges related to energy and mineral resources. The panel, titled "Energy & Critical Minerals, Domestic Production in Great Power Competition," will explore how the United States can secure its future energy and mineral needs amid rising global tensions.
The conference, scheduled for April 5, 2025, at 3:30 PM EST, will focus on the strategic importance of domestic mineral production. Marchese's participation underscores the growing significance of securing critical minerals for technological and national security purposes.
Texas Mineral Resources, through its joint venture with USARE, is developing the Round Top project in Hudspeth County, Texas. The project aims to produce heavy rare-earth elements, technology metals, and industrial minerals, potentially contributing to the United States' mineral independence and technological capabilities.
The panel discussion comes at a critical time when global geopolitical dynamics are increasingly influenced by access to strategic minerals. By highlighting domestic production capabilities, the conference seeks to address potential vulnerabilities in the United States' mineral supply chain and explore innovative solutions for sustainable resource development.
