对锂和铜等关键矿物的投资在2024年增长缓慢,引起了国际能源机构的关切。 Investment in critical minerals like lithium and copper grew slowly in 2024, raising IEA concerns.

国际能源机构(IEA)报告说,尽管需求高,对锂和铜等关键矿物的投资在2024年只增长了5%,低于2023年的14%。 The International Energy Agency (IEA) reports that despite high demand, investments in critical minerals like lithium and copper grew only 5% in 2024, down from 14% in 2023. 由于中国和印度尼西亚等主要炼油国供应量增加,勘探活动停滞不前,镍和钴等矿物的价格下降。 Exploration activities have plateaued, and prices for minerals such as nickel and cobalt have dropped due to increased supply from key refining nations like China and Indonesia. 国际能源机构强调必须实现多样化,但该行业在地理上越来越集中。 The IEA stresses the need for diversification, but the industry is becoming more concentrated geographically.
