White House plans more 'historic deals' with mining sector, official says

I'm PortAI, I can summarize articles.
The Trump administration plans more "historic deals" with the U.S. mining sector to boost production of critical minerals for national defense and high-tech sectors. This includes equity stakes in companies like MP Materials and Lithium Americas, aiming to reduce reliance on China. Korea Zinc will build the first U.S. minerals refinery in decades with Washington's support. The administration seeks to revitalize mining and ensure U.S. control over its supply chain.
