Tim Harrison

Tim Harrison is a business executive active in the rare earths and critical minerals sector. He holds a senior position within the rare earths industry, where his work focuses on the supply chain for materials essential to electric vehicles, permanent magnets and other advanced technologies. Harrison operates in a sector characterised by efforts to diversify supply away from dominant producers and to establish processing and recycling capacity in Western markets. His role involves navigating the strategic and commercial challenges of rare earth supply, including the development of separation and refining capabilities outside traditional centres of production. The rare earths industry has gained prominence owing to the materials' importance in clean energy technologies, defence applications and electronics manufacturing. Harrison's activities intersect with policy discussions around critical mineral security, particularly in the United States and Australia, where governments have prioritised domestic and allied supply chains. He engages with stakeholders across mining, processing, recycling and end-use sectors as the industry seeks to reduce reliance on Chinese refining capacity. His work reflects broader efforts to commercialise rare earth projects and to secure long-term offtake agreements with manufacturers of magnets and other components. Harrison's involvement in the sector positions him within a network of executives, policymakers and investors working to reshape the global rare earths market.
