Recital 10
(10) In order to diversify the Union's supply of strategic raw materials, the Commission should, with the support of the Board, identify Strategic Projects in third countries that intend to become active in the extraction, processing or recycling of strategic raw materials. To ensure that such Strategic Projects are effectively implemented, they should benefit from improved access to finance and to financial guarantee mechanisms in place. In order to ensure their added value, projects should be assessed against a set of criteria. Like projects in the Union, Strategic Projects in third countries should strengthen the Union's security of supply for strategic raw materials, show sufficient technical feasibility and be implemented sustainably, in compliance with due diligence processes as defined by EU legislation and OECD Guidelines for Multinational Enterprises, addressing adverse impacts on human rights and environmental, rule of law and good governance. For projects in emerging markets and developing economies, the project should be mutually beneficial for the Union and the third country involved and add value in that country, taking into account also its consistency with the Union’s common commercial policy as well as the principle of Policy Coherence for Development (PCD) as laid down in Article 208 TFEU. Such value may be derived from the project’s contribution to more than one stage of the whole value chain, including raw material processing, as well as from creating through the project wider economic and social benefits, including the creation of employment in compliance with international standards and with the core labour standards of the International Labour Organisation. Where the Commission assesses these criteria to be fulfilled, it should publish the recognition as a Strategic Project in a decision.

Recital 10 a (new)
(10a) The definition of mutually beneficial partnerships with third countries requires an overall effort and a competitive model different from other global players. This model should not be based on the exploitation of resources, but should consider the export and processing of raw materials as part of comprehensive organic and long-term agreements. The European strategy should take into account that the extraction of these raw materials can have a considerable impact on the territories where it takes place, both from an environmental point of view and in terms of respect for human and labour rights, and therefore different modalities should be put in place in order to avoid and mitigate these impacts. In this sense it is essential to ensure greater involvement of local communities in the definition of impacts and their mitigation, as well as in governance and in the definition of a more beneficial value chain.

(10b) The secure and sustainable supply of critical raw materials is strongly linked to the Sustainable Development Goals, in particular in order to ensure access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy, to promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation and to combat climate change and its impacts. For this reason it is fundamental to connect the European strategy to a global standards framework. In particular, the United Nations Framework Resource Classification (UNFC) and the United Nations Resource Management System (UNRMS) are important references for the identification of raw materials and for the definition of a framework for integrated resource management that can help both countries and companies to address sustainability challenges.

(11) In order to ensure the sustainability of increased raw material production, new raw materials projects should be implemented sustainably. To that end, the Strategic Projects receiving support under this Regulation should be assessed taking into account international instruments covering all aspects of sustainability highlighted in the EU principles for sustainable raw materials31, including ensuring environmental protection, good governance processes including full involvement of local communities and Civil Society Organisations,socially responsible practices, including respect for human and socialrights such as the rights of women, andchildren and workers, as well astransparent business practices. Projects should also ensure engagement in good faith as well as comprehensive and meaningful consultations with local communities, including with indigenous peoples, as laid out in the United Nations Declaration on the Rights ofIndigenous Peoples. To provide project promoters with a clear and efficient way of complying with this criterion, compliance with relevant Union legislation, international standards, guidelines and principles or participation in a certification scheme recognised under this Regulation should be considered sufficient. _________________ 31 European Commission, Directorate- General for Internal Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs, EU principles for sustainable raw materials, Publications Office, 2021, https://data.europa.eu/doi/10.2873/27875

(28) In order to overcome the limitations of the currently often fragmented public and private investments efforts, facilitate integration and return on investment, the Commission, Member States and promotional banks should better coordinate and create synergies between the existing funding programmes at Union and national level as well as ensure better coordination and collaboration with industry and key private sector stakeholders. To that end, a dedicated sub-group of the Board bringing together experts from the Member States and the Commission as well as relevant public financial institutions should be set up. This sub-group should discuss the individual financing needs of Strategic Projects and their existing funding possibilities in order to provide project promoters with a suggestion on how to best access existing financing possibilities. When discussing and making recommendations for the financing of Strategic Projects in third countries, the Board should in particular take into account the Global Gateway strategy42, that is a key reference for financing and securing investments and loans to support the creation of strategic partnerships aimed at improving supply of strategic raw materials within the framework of comprehensive partnerships. _________________ 42 Joint Communication to the European Parliament, the Council, the European Economic and Social Committee, the Committee of the Regions and the European Investment Bank The Global Gateway (JOIN/2021/30 final).

(54) The Union has concluded Strategic Partnerships covering raw materials with third countries in order to implement the 2020 Action Plan on Critical Raw Materials. In order to diversify supply, these efforts should continue. To develop and ensure a coherent framework for the conclusion of future partnerships, the Member States and the Commission should, as part of their interaction on the Board and with full involvement of European Parliament, discuss and ensure coordination on, inter alia, whether existing partnerships achieve the intended aims, the prioritisation of third countries for new partnerships, the content of such partnerships and their coherence and potential synergies between Member States' bilateral cooperation with relevant third countries. The Union should seek mutually beneficial partnerships with emerging market and developing economies, reflecting a model of sustainable development that respects environmental standards, human and labour rights, the strife for diversification in developing countries and foresee a key role for local communities in coherence with its Global Gateway strategy, which contribute to the diversification of its raw materials supply chain as well as add value in the production in these countries.

(3) Firstly, in order to effectively ensure the Union's access to a secure and sustainable supply of critical raw materials, that framework should include measures to decrease the Union's growing supply risks by strengthening Union capacities along all stages of the strategic raw materials value chain, including extraction, processing and recycling, towards benchmarks defined for each strategic raw material. Secondly, as the Union will continue to rely on imports, the framework should include measures to increase the diversification of external supplies of strategic raw materials. Thirdly, is necessary to provide measures to reinforce the Union’s ability to monitor and mitigate existing and future supply risks. Fourthly, the framework should contain measures to increase the circularity and sustainability of the critical raw materials consumed in the Union. Fifthly, measures should be taken to limit the increasing demand for critical raw materials by increasing efficiency in the whole value chain.

(4a) Secondary raw materials play an essential role in the decarbonisation of the European productions which are key for the build-up of the strategic technologies needed for the green and digital transitions and in many cases are also relevant sources of critical raw materials. With the aim of focusing on the most relevant secondary sources, a sub- list of strategic secondary raw materials should be established within the strategic raw materials list taking into account: high strategical role in decarbonisation and green transition; high forecasted demand growth at global level; potential gap between supply and projected demand; difficulty of increasing collection and recovery in EU; high potential for critical raw material recovery. The assessment should take into account not only the latest available data but the forecasted evolution of demand- supply over an appropriate reference period, to address possible future scarcity or supply disruption.

(6) To strengthen Union capacities along the strategic raw materials value chain, benchmarks should be set to guide efforts and track progress. The aim should be to increase capacities for each strategic raw material at each stage of the value chain, while aiming to achieve overall capacity benchmarks for extraction, processing and recycling of strategic raw materials and secondary raw materials. Firstly, the Union should increase the use of its own geological resources of strategic raw materials and build up capacity to allow it to extract the materials needed to produce at least 10 % of the Union's consumption of strategic raw materials. Keeping in mind that extraction capacity is highly dependent on the availability of Union geological resources, the achievement of this benchmark is dependent on such availability. Secondly, in order to build a full value chain and prevent any bottlenecks at intermediate stages, the Union should in addition increase its processing capacity along the value chain and be able to produce at least 40 % of its annual consumption of strategic raw materials and secondary raw materials. Thirdly, it is expected that in the coming decades a growing share of the Union's consumption of strategic raw materials can be covered by secondary raw materials, which would improve both the security and the sustainability of the Union’s raw materials supply. Therefore, Union recycling capacity should be able to produce at least 15 % of the Union’s annual consumption of strategic raw materials. These benchmarks refer to the 2030 time horizon, in alignment with the Union's climate and energy targets set under Regulation (EU) 2021/1119 of the European Parliament and of the Council29and the digital targets under the Digital Decade30, which they underpin. Furthermore, quality jobs, including skills development and job-to-job transitions, will address risks in the sectoral labour market and help ensure the EU’s competitiveness. _________________ 29 Regulation (EU) 2021/1119 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 30 June 2021 establishing the framework for achieving climate neutrality and amending Regulations (EC) No 401/2009 and (EU) 2018/1999 (OJ L 243, 9.7.2021, p. 1). 30 Decision (EU) 2022/2481 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 14 December 2022 establishing the Digital Decade Policy Programme 2030 (OJL 323, 19.12.2022, p. 4–26 )

(11a) Strategic raw materials are, in most cases, extracted as by-products of a carrier mineral. For the Union to meet the objectives of this Regulation, the by- product nature of strategic raw materials shall not impact the strategic nature of such extraction projects. Projects with the aim of extraction can therefore be deemed strategic, both if the strategic mineral is extracted as a main product or as a by- product.

(42) Member States retain important competences in the field of circularity, for example in the area of waste collection and treatment systems. These should be used to increase collection and recycling rates for waste streams with a high potential for recovery of critical raw materials, making use for example of financial incentives such as discounts, monetary rewards or deposit-refund systems. Member State authorities should also make a difference as buyers of critical raw materials and of products containing them, and national research and innovation programmes provide significant resources to increase the state of knowledge and technology for critical raw materials circularity as well as material efficiency. In this regard, synergies and cooperation with already operational programmes and initiatives, such as EIT Raw Materials, the European Raw Materials Alliance (ERMA) and the European Innovation Council, need to be strengthened in order to create critical mass of financial resources or additional support such as sector expertise, contacts and experience. Finally, Member States should promote the recovery of critical raw materials from extractive waste by improving the availability of information and by addressing legal, economic and technical barriers. One possible solution that Member States should look into are risk-sharing mechanisms between operators and the Member State to promote recovery from closed waste facilities.
