Minespider, Rare Earth Ventures partner to bring traceability to Australian minerals supply chain

Minespider and critical minerals broker Rare Earth Ventures (REV) have entered into a strategic partnership aimed at bringing traceability to rare earth and other mineral supply chains in Australia.Traceability is increasingly becoming a prerequisite for investment and market access, ensuring that mining projects can demonstrate responsible sourcing and ESG performance to global buyers. For this purpose, Minespider has developed a digital product passport (DPP) platform for reliably tracking supply chain data.Australia represents one of the world’s most important markets – the fourth largest globally – for rare earths, and also holds significant deposits of lithium, graphite, cobalt, nickel, manganese and other critical minerals.Founded in 2023, REV plays a strategic role in this landscape by facilitating foreign investment and development in the rare earth and critical minerals industries. As a trusted intermediary, REV connects mining projects with international investors, offtakers and strategic buyers, ensuring every deal is compliant, transparent and ESG-aligned.This strategic partnership will enable REV to implement one of the most innovative traceability solutions on the market – proving that mineral supply chains are transparent, secure and ESG-compliant – while providing Minespider with access to Australian projects.Through this collaboration, the two companies will deploy DPPs that embed transparent, verifiable data into raw material supply chains. Their joint efforts aim to strengthen the integrity and compliance of mining and industrial operations, ease access to foreign investment, and accelerate the development of critical mining projects.“Traceability and transparency are no longer optional – they’re the foundation for gaining market access and investment. Through our partnership with Rare Earth Ventures, we’re helping Australian mines prove their ESG performance and unlock global opportunities,” Nathan Williams, founder and CEO of Minespider, stated in a press release.“At REV, we see traceability as fundamental to building investor confidence in critical mineral supply chains. Partnering exclusively with Minespider allows us to deliver secure, transparent and ESG-aligned solutions to our clients worldwide,” said Theresa Schmidt, director at REV.Earlier this year, Minespider formed another strategic partnership with Tethys: Trans-Eurasian Gateway, an investment consultancy firm focused on Turkey and Central Asian mining projects. Like the collaboration with REV, this partnership was designed to facilitate capital inflows into mining projects while embedding transparency and traceability into supply chains.Currently, companies such as Tata Elxsi, Ford Otosan, Renault, PTL, Minsur, Luna Smelter and TEMSA are all using Minespider’s technology to drive the shift toward a sustainable future.Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Mining.com Weiter zum vollständigen Artikel bei Mining.com
