Falcon Copper CEO Matt Hornor on America’s Secret Weapon for Energy, AI & National Security: Copper
Copper isn’t just another metal—it’s the backbone of America’s energy, technology, and military future.
In this episode of 13th & Park, Matthew Hornor, CEO of Falcon Copper, explains why copper is the new oil and how it underpins everything from AI data centers and electric vehicles to national defense systems like the F-35 and U.S. Navy carriers.
Hornor details America’s urgent need to develop domestic copper mines and processing capacity to keep pace with global demand, compete with China’s stockpiling, and ensure U.S. energy security and technological leadership. He also shares his international experience, partnerships with Japan, and why responsible American mining is vital for the future.
