POSCO Group is seeking to secure leadership in the global critical-minerals supply chain by combining Australia’s resources with South Korea’s refining technology. POSCO Group said on the 2nd that Chang In-hwa, chairman of POSCO Group, attended the 47th annual joint meeting of the Korea–Australia Economic Cooperation Committee in Adelaide, Australia, as chair of the Korean side and proposed the initiative.
In his opening remarks, Chairman Chang emphasized strengthening the supply chain by combining Australia’s abundant resources with South Korea’s advanced refining and processing technology, saying, “Critical minerals will have even greater potential as a new growth engine for industrial cooperation between the two countries.”
About 200 political and business leaders from both countries attended the meeting, including Australian Foreign Minister Penny Wong, Trade and Tourism Minister Don Farrell, and Martin Ferguson, chair of the Australia–Korea Economic Cooperation Committee, shown on the right.
