The Australian Government’s Critical Minerals Facility
In 2021, the Australian Government established the $2 billion Critical Minerals Facility, which is managed by Export Finance Australia. Projects that are aligned with the Australian Government’s Critical Minerals Strategy, and are otherwise in Australia’s national interest, may be able to access finance through this facility.
How we work with other financiers
We work alongside other Commonwealth financing bodies where mandates overlap. For critical minerals, this can include working with the Clean Energy Finance Corporation and the Northern Australia Infrastructure Facility.
