The GLIAG essay by Marcel Chin-A-Lien discusses Suriname’s critical raw materials (CRMs) and strategic mineral potential. It identifies three key areas: onshore mineral wealth, offshore resources, and deep-sea prospects. The paper advocates for prioritising onshore development and establishing a national CRM inventory while cautioning against premature deep-sea mining before regulatory frameworks are solidified.
