Industries such as mining and mineral processing, power generation, coal, oil and gas, specialty metals, and basic materials have the potential to recover valuable materials that will address many of America’s most severe mineral vulnerabilities. The goal of this NOFO is to increase domestic critical material production.

American industrial facilities have enormous potential to recover valuable mineral coproducts and byproducts from ongoing operations and legacy waste streams such as mine tailings, impoundments, and coal ash. To de-risk industry investments, the technology for recovering these materials must be piloted under real-world conditions and at a scale relevant to each industry.

There are two topic areas: Topic Area 1: Mines & Metals Pilots—Coal-Based Industry. Topic Area 2: Mines & Metals Pilots—All Industries Projects are expected to produce qualified market-ready CMM products, and other value-added materials with potential offtake agreements.

In addition, projects will generate the critically needed information and operational data required for the development of a near-term commercial facility within the U.S." Published_Q&A_Updated_1. 15 (Last Updated: 1/15/2026 12:48 PM ET) FundOpp_DE-FOA-0003583_Amd_000001 (Last Updated: 12/5/2025 10:54 AM ET) Application Forms and Templates The following forms and templates may be used as part of the application submission.

DE-FOA-0002956: Advancing Technology Development for Securing a Domestic Supply of Critical Minerals and Materials (CMM) DE-FOA-0002956 supports DOE’s current vision to develop secure, diverse, resilient, domestic Critical Mineral and Materials (CMM) supply chains by expanding the Programs at the Office of Fossil Energy and Carbon Management (FECM) and the Advanced Materials and Manufacturing Technologies Office (AMMTO) to fund additional processing research and development (R&D) for the recovery and refining of CMM, as required for critical supply chain use.

The overall objectives of the FOA are to (1) continue to advance CMM technology development, not only in the area of new advanced recovery concepts, but also to (2) expand and improve process systems development, optimization, and efficiency, to (3) improve CMM process system economic feasibility and align production costs with existing market sectors, and to (4) produce CMM from multiple, diverse feedstocks including recycled materials.

DE-FOA-0002955: Advancing Technology Development for Securing a Domestic Supply of Critical Minerals and Materials (CMM) The United States Department of Energy (DOE’s) Fossil Energy and Carbon Management Program intends to issue Funding Opportunity Announcement (FOA) no. DE-FOA-0002956 titled “Advancing Technology Development for Securing a Domestic Supply of Critical Minerals and Materials (CMM)”.

This Notice of Intent to Issue (NOI) is for informational purposes only; the Department of Energy is not seeking comments on the information in this notice and applications are not being accepted at this time. DOE will not accept questions at this time regarding issuance of the FOA. Details on how to submit questions and comments will be provided in the FOA, if issued.

Any information contained in this notice is subject to change. This Notice of Intent supports DOE’s current vision to secure diverse, resilient, domestic CMM supply chains by expanding the Critical Minerals and Materials Program to fund additional processing research and development (R&D) for the recovery and refining of CMM, as required for critical supply chain use. The intended FOA has four (4) Areas of Interest planned.

The four Areas of Interest are as follows: Area of Interest 1: Coproduction of CMM and Carbon Manufacturing Precursor Materials from Unconventional Coal and Other Carbon-based Feedstocks Area of Interest 2: Recovery of Heavy Rare Earth Elements (HREE) from Secondary and Unconventional Resources Area of Interest 3: Critical Mineral Recovery from Produced Water Area of Interest 4: Process Diversification: Production of Rare Earth Elements from Secondary/Unconventional Resources and Recycled Materials Notification of Intent DE-FOA-0002955 (Last Updated: 8/29/2024 10:16 AM ET) Full Application Submission Deadline: TBD To access the Teaming Partner List for this announcement, click here .
