Defense spending is reshaping critical minerals finance, making projects more bankable. Unlike previous reliance on energy transition narratives, defense procurement offers predictable, government-backed cash flow, altering risk profiles for investors. Canada, with its rich mineral deposits and strategic agreements, is positioned as a key player, attracting capital while navigating complex U.S. relations. Successful projects exhibit traceability, strong management, and diversified revenue models, balancing defense contracts with commercial opportunities. This shift in demand signals a significant change in how critical minerals are financed and valued in the market.
