Column: Trump 2.0 won’t reverse Biden’s critical minerals push
Donald Trump has described the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) as a "green scam" and vowed to repeal it after he returns to the White House in January.
Dec 18 (Reuters) – Northern Dynasty Minerals, owner of the Pebble copper-gold project in Alaska, said rival First Quantum Minerals acquired the option to buy half of the project for $1.50 billion.
Under the agreement, First Quantum can make an option payment of $150 million over four years to buy the right to earn a 50 percent interest in the Pebble Limited Partnership for $1.35 billion.
