Episode 79: The Diplomatic Lens: Navigating the Geopolitics of Critical Minerals with Melissa Sanderson

In this episode of Energy Frontier: The Wyoming Landscape, Dr. Erin Phillips, Acting Senior Director of Research at the School of Energy Resources, explores the intersection of international diplomacy and domestic resource security with Melissa Sanderson, a former senior U.S. diplomat, Director at American Rare Earths, and Co-Chair of the Critical Minerals Institute. As the United States races to secure a reliable supply of rare earth elements, Sanderson discusses why Wyoming’s Halleck Creek project is a vital strategic asset and shares her unique perspective on navigating geopolitical shifts, building "social license" in the mining sector, and mentoring the next generation of leaders tasked with securing the American energy frontier.
