      The article discusses the efforts of the U.S. government to rebuild its stocks of minerals and metals that are important to the defense and energy industries. Topics discussed include China's restriction of exports of industrial metals, the plans of the U.S. to build a China-free metals supply chain by enlisting the help of mining companies and its allies, and the overhaul of the Department of Defense's Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) to give it greater freedom to procure critical metals.
