2 obscure clean energy metals are caught in the crosshairs of the US-China trade war After a Chinese export ban, can America get gallium and germanium from Canada — or will tariffs get in the way?

China’s Control and the Sudden Ban. Right now, almost all of the world’s refined gallium comes from one country: China. In fact, in 2023, China produced about 98% of the global supply.
