Talk:Critical Raw Materials Act

Suggestion of changing the title to 'List of elements facing shortage'
Not all 27 "minerals" listed here are minerals. For instance, helium is not a mineral and beryllium and europium needs to be extracted from other minerals. However, all 27 of these are elements of the periodic table, or an isotope at the very least like helium 3 and tritium. As such, I suggest a name change. Yen-Tzu (talk) 05:31, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

mistakes
The comments on the application of each element often include original research and some clear factual mistakes. These should be revised with cites. 216.165.126.107 (talk) 17:54, 25 February 2019 (UTC)

Removal of "Details of critical mineral raw materials" section
I have removed a section of the article in this edit for the following reasons:
 * It has virtually no sources.
 * It contains opinions (e.g. ) and dubious to outright facetious statements (e.g. ).
 * Data are incomplete. Calculating the lifespan of a mineral reserve is nontrivial because demand and supply are not constant, so simply dividing the total resources by the annual extraction rate amounts to original research. –LaundryPizza03 ( d c̄ ) 19:38, 23 March 2020 (UTC)
