Advancing Innovation in Mineral Exploration and Sustainable Development
Learn MoreMission
Project STIMULUS 15 is a strategic initiative to establish secure, transparent, and sustainable Strategic Mineral Economic Zones (SM EZs) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). Our mission is to transform these zones into secure hubs of mineral development that supply critical minerals to the United States' industrial sectors while driving inclusive, long-term development across the DRC.
Key Objectives
- Establish a vertically integrated operational framework for strategic mineral development in the DRC.
- Drive economic growth and stability in conflict-prone regions through ethical mineral development.
- Implement advanced technologies to ensure responsible, traceable mineral sourcing and processing.
- Provide secure investment opportunities within a legally protected framework.
- Reduce US dependency on geopolitical adversaries for critical mineral supply chains.
Project Stimulus 15 Overview
Project STIMULUS 15 is a comprehensive initiative designed to establish secure, transparent, and sustainable Strategic Mineral Economic Zones (SM EZs) in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC). These zones will serve as secure hubs for mineral development, ensuring a reliable supply of critical minerals to the United States' industrial sectors while driving inclusive, long-term development across the DRC.
Through our innovative Strategic Mineral Economic Zones (SM EZs), Project Stimulus 15 establishes secure, legally protected areas where strategic minerals essential to US economic and national security interests are ethically sourced, processed, and exported. These zones operate under enhanced governance frameworks that ensure operational integrity, environmental responsibility, and economic benefits for local communities.
