TORONTO, ONTARIO – April 15, 2025 – The Critical Minerals Institute (CMI) is pleased to announce that Terry Lynch, Chief Executive Officer of Power Metallic Mines Inc. (TSXV: PNPN | OTCQB: PNPNF), will deliver a keynote address at the prestigious CMI Summit IV, set for May 13–14, 2025, at the National Club in Toronto, Ontario. Mr. Lynch will explore the pivotal topic: “Tariffs and the Strategic Future of North American Critical Minerals.”
Terry Lynch, a recognized industry leader, will delve deeply into the complex dynamics of tariffs, their broader economic implications, and their strategic relevance to North American energy independence and security. With tariffs increasingly employed as instruments of economic and national security policy, Lynch’s insights promise to illuminate both challenges and opportunities inherent in their application.
In advance of his keynote, Terry Lynch offered the following impactful perspective:
“Tariffs are about America prioritizing the security and prosperity of Americans—ensuring that they not only live well but also sleep safely at night. In a geopolitical landscape marked by uncertainty and strategic competition, tariffs become powerful tools, reshaping interest rates and driving commodities markets toward historic corrections. The essential truth is this: secure, reliable, North American sources for critical minerals aren’t merely economic choices—they’re national imperatives. We’re at the cusp of significant strategic shifts, and recognizing this will position policymakers and industry leaders alike to make decisions that shape our collective economic future.”
The theme for this year’s CMI Summit IV—”The War for Critical Minerals and Capital Resources”—reflects the intensifying global competition and geopolitical complexities surrounding these strategic commodities. Lynch’s keynote will join insights from over two dozen industry leaders, collectively shaping this critical conversation.
“Terry Lynch’s address will provide essential clarity for policymakers, industry leaders, and academics alike,” stated Tracy Hughes, Founder and Executive Director of CMI. “His thought leadership on tariffs and market dynamics comes at a pivotal moment, illuminating the interconnected economic and security landscapes we face. Notably, Power Metallic’s Nisk project is particularly relevant, as it encompasses three critical minerals identified on the recently released CMI Critical Minerals List 2025—nickel, copper, and PGMs—highlighting the strategic importance of their efforts.”
The two-day summit agenda features influential keynote speeches, interactive panels, and strategic workshops aimed at forging actionable solutions and strategic partnerships essential for securing the global critical minerals supply chain.
