The xin.bz view
- Greenland is moving from potential to projects: roughly two dozen of the EU’s 34 critical raw materials, the Tanbreez rare-earth project with a 15-year binding offtake, and Amitsoq graphite advancing — with local hydropower positioned to capture processing value before materials leave the island.
- Fisheries remain a large share of GDP and exports, and expanding Arctic shipping raises the value of its ports, airfields, connectivity, and search-and-rescue infrastructure.
