The industrial revolution 4.0, and the new international conception of mobility and sustainable energy, has resulted in a struggle for the mineral resources that are an essential part of its construction and development. These 17 elements are scarce in their purest variant, and China has control over the deposits of most of them, both within its territory and also in the rest of the world exploited by companies owned by this country.
The geoeconomic confrontation over these minerals has resulted in a series of unexpected consequences for Western countries: an increasing tension in the technological war between the Asian giant and the US, as well as the awakening of the European Union in terms of energy and technological sovereignty.
