The U.S. Geological Survey leads national efforts to map mineral resources and analyze the supply chains needed to drive the U.S. economy and national security. The efforts include analyzing global supply chain risks, mineral needs for domestic industry and defense, and future production capacity. The USGS also partners with state geological surveys, private companies, universities and federal agencies in its efforts to identify new mineral resources below ground and in old mine tailings and energy wastes.
