David Jacoby Speaking at Critical Minerals North America Conference & Exhibition 2026, New York City

Boston Strategies International is pleased to announce that David Jacoby will be speaking at the Critical Minerals North America Conference & Exhibition 2026, taking place in New York City. 

Critical Minerals North America is America’s longest running international critical minerals, commodities, investment, new energy & technologies show, bringing together the entire mineral resources value chain to New York City. 

David Jacoby’s Session Topic: 

How to Develop All-American Critical Minerals Value Chains Before It’s Too Late — With a Special Focus on Rare Earths and Battery Materials 

🔎 Key highlights:  

Efforts are underway to develop all-American supply chains for minerals such as rare earths, lithium, graphite, cobalt, magnesium, and of course nickel, copper and other more common metals. From an investment point of view, the story is one of investment and return. But from a supply chain point of view, the whole value chain from mine to end-product is in play – extraction, pre-processing, processing, refining, assembly, manufacturing, distribution, and recycling.  

Using rare earths as an example, my talk will address how the US can economically localize its production to eliminate dependence on trading partners like China. 

✅Which extraction technologies are efficient at different scales 

✅How far away multiple processing stages can be located without destroying margin  

✅Whether refining can be environmentally safe and socially sustainable 

✅What configuration of distribution centers maximizes market reach at economic cost 

✅How to organize for recycling even before it’s required by law
