Who We Support
Clients seeking critical mineral expertise but wanting to avoid hiring expensive in-house experts or large outside consulting firms.
Potential Clients
Investment Firms
Amid market growth and government support for clean energy manufacturing, investment firms seek to invest in critical mineral companies and projects, but they want additional insight into critical mineral supply chains—and they do not want to hire in-house experts or large outside consulting firms. DGM can serve the mineral consulting needs for these firms, including venture capital and private equity firms.

Manufacturing Companies
Given increasing market and geopolitical risks, manufacturing companies are increasingly interested seeking to identify vulnerabilities to their critical mineral supply chains. Historically, these companies have relied on tier 2 and 3 suppliers to manage their supply chains, but now they want further insight into mineral risks and opportunities. DGM can support the needs of these manufacturing companies, including manufacturers of semiconductors and industrial equipment.

Defense Contractors
As the defense industrial base struggles to adjust to increased demand from the Russia-Ukraine war and increase supply chain risk from US-China competition, defense contractors seek to assess their critical mineral supply chains. Like manufacturing companies, defense contractors generally have limited visibility into their upstream supply chain for critical minerals, depending on their suppliers. DGM can assist various defense contractors, including aerospace companies and federally funded research and development centers.
