OverviewIn this episode, Argus examines new US export controls on tungsten scrap and battery black mass, introduced as part of a broader effort to secure domestic critical mineral supply chains. Our experts discuss the immediate market impact, the implications for recyclers and processors, and whether similar measures could spread to other metals and regions.Covered in this episodeWhat the new US restrictions on tungsten scrap and battery black mass mean for exporters, recyclers and consumersHow the measures are affecting prices, trade flows and domestic processing capacity in the USWhy tungsten and battery materials are increasingly being treated as strategic resourcesWhether similar export controls could be extended to other critical minerals and non-ferrous scrap streamsHow the European Union is approaching scrap retention and critical raw material securityThe long-term implications for recyclers, global trade and vertical integration across metals supply chainsSpeakersRonan Murphy, Editor, Argus Non-Ferrous MarketsReagan Patrowicz, Reporter, Critical Minerals MarketsCristina Belda, Associate Editor, Battery MaterialsZach Schumacher, Editor, Argus Scrap Markets
