Hōʻike ʻia e Luka 2020-3-6

Ua piʻi nui nā kumuwaiwai mineral koʻikoʻi o ka ʻāina, e like me ka ʻikepili i hoʻokuʻu ʻia e GA Geoscience Australia ma ka hālāwai kūkā PDAC ma Toronto.

I ka makahiki 2018, ua ulu nā kumuwaiwai tantalum o ʻAukekulelia ma 79 pakeneka, lithium 68 pakeneka, platinum group a me nā metala honua laha ʻelua i ulu ma 26 pakeneka, potassium 24 pakeneka, vanadium 17 pakeneka a me cobalt 11 pakeneka.

Manaʻo ʻo GA ʻo ke kumu nui o ka hoʻonui ʻia ʻana o nā kumuwaiwai ka hoʻonui ʻia o ke koi a me ka piʻi ʻana o nā ʻike hou.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Keith Pitt, ke kuhina pekelala no nā kumuwaiwai, ka wai a me ka ʻākau o Australia, ua pono nā minelala koʻikoʻi e hana i nā kelepona paʻalima, nā hōʻikeʻike kristal wai, nā ʻāpana liʻiliʻi, nā magnet, nā pila a me nā ʻenehana hou e hoʻokele ana i ka holomua o ka hoʻokele waiwai a me ka ʻenehana.

Eia nō naʻe, ua emi iho nā kumuwaiwai daimana, bauxite a me ka phosphorus o Australia.

Ma ka nui o ka hana ʻana o 2018, ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi o ke ola o ka lanahu, uranium, nickel, cobalt, tantalum, ka honua laha ʻole, a me ka ore ma mua o 100 mau makahiki, ʻoiai ʻo ka hao, ke keleawe, ka bauxite, ke kēpau, ka tin, ka lithium, ke kālā, a me nā metala hui platinum he 50-100 mau makahiki. ʻOi aku ka liʻiliʻi o ke ola o ka manganese, antimony, ke gula, a me ke daimana ma mua o 50 mau makahiki.

ʻO AIMR (Australia's Identified Mineral Resources) kekahi o nā puke pai i hoʻolaha ʻia e ke aupuni ma PDAC.

Ma ka ʻaha kūkā PDAC ma mua o kēia pule, ua kau inoa ʻo GA i kahi ʻaelike hui pū me ka ʻoihana noiʻi honua o Kanada ma ka inoa o ke aupuni Australia e aʻo i ka hiki ke loaʻa nā minerala o Australia, wahi a Pitt. I ka makahiki 2019, ua kau inoa pū ʻo GA a me ka ʻoihana noiʻi honua o US i kahi ʻaelike hui pū no ka noiʻi minerala koʻikoʻi. I loko o Australia, e kākoʻo ka CMFO (Critical Minerals Facilitation Office) i ka hoʻopukapuka kālā, ke kālā a me ke komo ʻana i ka mākeke no nā papahana minerala koʻikoʻi. E hāʻawi kēia i nā hana no nā tausani o nā Australia e hiki mai ana ma ke kālepa a me ka hana ʻana.
