OBS

minerai stratégique : Un minerai est un minéral extrait du sol pour être exploité. Comme un minéral peut aussi être extrait d'autres sources (sous-produits du charbon, saumures géothermiques, eau de mer, produits recyclés, etc.), la désignation «minerai stratégique» peut ne pas convenir dans certains contextes.
