[SMM Analysis] US Launches "Gold Reserve Plan", Adding Uncertainty to DRC Cobalt Ore Supply

The Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC), as the world's largest supplier of cobalt resources, accounted for over 70% of the global cobalt raw material supply in 2024. In 2025, the export ban and quota policies implemented by the country have already triggered significant fluctuations in cobalt prices. At a time when its cobalt ore exports have not yet resumed large-scale shipments, the United States has successively launched a critical minerals reserve plan, intensifying the competition for global resource dominance. This not only introduces new uncertainties to the cobalt supply system in the DRC but also further elevates the geopolitical risks for Chinese enterprises in securing cobalt resources.
