America has a tungsten problem

The United States faces a significant challenge in securing a reliable supply of tungsten, a critical metal for industries such as defense and semiconductors. Currently, the US heavily relies on Chinese tungsten imports, which has become increasingly precarious due to trade disputes. With rising demand for tungsten, particularly from potential fusion technologies, the US risks facing a severe shortage. Efforts to develop domestic and international tungsten sources are underway, but they may not be sufficient to meet future needs. The situation underscores the strategic importance of tungsten and the need for a comprehensive plan to ensure a stable supply.
