Answer

sec:answer-65a50c2e

In parallel with the AUKUS Pillar 2 advanced-capability workstreams, the AUKUS partners have committed to coordinate investment in secure critical-minerals supply chains. The US Department of Defense has made DPA Title III investments in AUKUS-partner projects (including Australian rare-earth separation capacity). The Australia-US Climate, Critical Minerals and Clean Energy Transformation Compact (May 2023) expressly aligns the two countries' critical-minerals programmes and designates Australia as a 'domestic source' for the purposes of DPA Title III.
