India has released a report identifying 30 critical minerals essential for its economic development and national security. The list includes minerals such as lithium, cobalt, rare earth elements, and graphite, which are crucial for modern technologies. The list, however, excludes helium, which is surprising as the country imports at an average 10mmcf/m (AKAP estimates).
