Minespider and Rare Earth Ventures to boost traceability in Australia’s critical minerals supply chains

Traceability is increasingly becoming a prerequisite for investment and market access, ensuring that mining projects can demonstrate responsible sourcing and ESG performance to global buyers.

This strategic partnership will enable REV to implement one of the most innovative traceability solutions on the market – proving that mineral supply chains are transparent, secure, and ESG-compliant – while providing Minespider with access to Australian projects. Through this collaboration, the two companies will deploy Digital Product Passports that embed transparent, verifiable data into raw material supply chains. Their joint efforts aim to strengthen the integrity and compliance of mining and industrial operations, ease access to foreign investment, and accelerate the development of critical mining projects.

Australia represents one of the world’s most important markets – the fourth largest globally - for rare earths, and also holds significant deposits of lithium, graphite, cobalt, nickel, manganese, and other critical minerals. Rare Earth Ventures (REV) plays a strategic role in this landscape by facilitating foreign investment and development in the rare earth and critical minerals industries. As a trusted intermediary, REV connects mining projects with international investors, offtakers, and strategic buyers, ensuring every deal is compliant, transparent, and ESG-aligned.

“Traceability and transparency are no longer optional – they’re the foundation for gaining market access and investment. Through our partnership with Rare Earth Ventures, we’re helping Australian mines prove their ESG performance and unlock global opportunities,” said Nathan Williams, Founder & CEO of Minespider.

“At REV, we see traceability as fundamental to building investor confidence in critical mineral supply chains. Partnering exclusively with Minespider allows us to deliver secure, transparent, and ESG-aligned solutions to our clients worldwide.” commented Theresa Schmidt, Director at Rare Earth Ventures.
