According to a report by Reuters cited by Mining.com, Indonesian President Prabowo has ordered the establishment of a new mining regulatory body responsible for overseeing the development of rare earth and radioactive materials. The head of the agency made this announcement to reporters on August 25.

"This agency will be responsible for managing the strategic materials industry related to the defense sector, as strategic materials are crucial for national sovereignty and equally important for improving the national economy," said the head of the agency, Brian Yuliarto, who also serves as the Minister of Higher Education.

Previously, he mentioned that rare earth metals are often found in the byproducts of nickel and tin processing. Indonesia has been attempting to process rare earth minerals discovered in tin ore, such as monazite.

Indonesia is a major producer of tin and nickel, with abundant reserves of critical minerals and rare earth elements.
