U.S. President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky was meant to reset an already strained relationship between the two, and there were high hopes that strengthening the alliance between the two countries would mean steps towards strengthening Ukraine's chances of ending their war with invading Russia. Instead, this meeting was cut short after a heated conversation, and a deal was left unsigned. The bilateral agreement between the two countries would have been the first of its kind. It's set up to have Ukraine and the United States jointly investing in harnessing Ukraine's critical minerals and other valuable resources in part to help rebuild the country after three years of Russia's full-scale invasion and war. So what are rare earth and critical minerals? Our Anna Stewart quickly walks us through what these minerals are and why they're so important. Rare earths are a group of 17 elements which can be useful for electronics, clean energy technologies, and some weapons systems. But Ukraine doesn't have globally significant deposits of rare earth minerals.

美國總統唐納德-特朗普（Donald Trump）與烏克蘭總統沃洛德梅爾-澤連斯基（Volodymyr Zelensky）的會晤旨在重啟兩國之間本已緊張的關係，人們對加強兩國之間的聯盟寄予厚望，認為這將意味著烏克蘭有機會結束與入侵俄羅斯的戰爭。然而，這次會晤卻在激烈的對話後中斷了，協議也沒有簽署。兩國之間的雙邊協議本應是首個此類協議。協議的目的是讓烏克蘭和美國共同投資，利用烏克蘭的關鍵礦產和其他寶貴資源，以幫助烏克蘭在俄羅斯全面入侵和戰爭三年後重建國家。那麼什麼是稀土和關鍵礦產呢？我們的記者安娜-斯圖爾特

What Ukraine does have is a lot of other critical minerals. So what are some of these good for?

烏克蘭有很多其他重要的礦物質。那麼，這些礦產有什麼用呢？

Well, the U.S. lists 50 minerals that are critical. This includes titanium and zirconium, which is useful for aviation and the space industry, including for defense. Graphite is a key component for EV batteries and nuclear reactors, and lithium is needed for rechargeable batteries. Now beyond all this being very useful, the U.S. also wants more rare earths and other critical minerals as it's an area China has been dominating for years. According to the Ukrainian government, Ukraine has deposits of 22 out of 50 minerals deemed critical to the U.S. It's unclear which of these minerals and how much of them are actually in this proposed deal. Many of these resources are expensive to mine, and some are currently in Russian-occupied areas. Extracting, processing, and refining these types of minerals can be very expensive and time-consuming. In

美國列出了 50 種關鍵礦產。其中包括鈦和鋯，它們對航空和航天工業（包括國防）非常有用。石墨是電動汽車電池和核反應堆的關鍵成分，充電電池需要鋰。除了這些非常有用的東西，美國還希望獲得更多稀土和其他關鍵礦產，因為這是中國多年來一直佔據主導地位的領域。據烏克蘭政府稱，在美國認為至關重要的 50 種礦產中，烏克蘭擁有 22 種。其中許多資源的開採成本很高，而且有些資源目前位於俄羅斯佔領區。開採、加工和提煉這些類型的礦產可能非常昂貴和耗時。在

Ukraine, the work is further complicated by the ongoing fighting that makes mining even riskier.

烏克蘭持續不斷的戰事使開採工作變得更加複雜，風險也更大。

And the amount of mineral wealth in Ukraine is unclear. Resource mapping hasn't been updated there for decades, with officials and analysts relying on dated Soviet-era mapping. The idea of leveraging Ukraine's resources was originally part of President Zelensky's victory plan for steps to end the war. President Trump initially wanted a $500 billion share of Ukraine's minerals to recoup military and humanitarian aid the U.S. provided in the war effort. It was rejected by his Ukrainian counterpart. While the new framework for the deal leaves some details to be determined, it would set up a joint reconstruction investment fund with U.S. and Ukraine ownership. The fund would give the U.S. access to part of Ukraine's mineral wealth while helping to boost development in the country. Now it's unclear now whether the two parties will sign a deal. And much hangs in the balance for Ukrainians still at war with Russia. CNN's Nick Payton Walsh visited a titanium mine in Ukraine to show us how the critical mineral is being unearthed there.

烏克蘭的礦產資源數量尚不清楚。數十年來，當地的資源測繪一直沒有更新，官員和分析師們依賴的是蘇聯時期的過時測繪。利用烏克蘭資源的想法最初是澤連斯基總統結束戰爭的勝利計劃的一部分。特朗普總統最初希望從烏克蘭礦產中獲得 5000 億美元的份額，以收回美國在戰爭中提供的軍事和人道主義援助。但遭到了烏克蘭總統的拒絕。雖然新的協議框架還有一些細節有待確定，但它將建立一個美國和烏克蘭共同擁有的重建投資基金。該基金將使美國獲得烏克蘭的部分礦產資源，同時幫助促進該國的發展。現在還不清楚雙方是否會簽署協議。對於仍在與俄羅斯交

We very much need rare earth. They have great rare earth. A moonshot for Ukraine's survival.

我們非常需要稀土。他們有很好的稀土。為烏克蘭的生存而探月。

Talking peace suddenly means talking about places like here, this lunar landscape. A titanium mine struggling under the Russian bombardment of Ukraine's power grid, sometimes with only three hours power a day.

談論和平突然意味著談論像這裡這樣的地方，這片月球景觀。一個鈦礦在俄羅斯對烏克蘭電網的轟炸下苦苦掙扎，有時一天只能供電三小時。

Half a trillion dollars. That was the sum that President Trump initially thought Ukraine might be able to pay back to the United States, in his words. And here you get a sense of the challenge really, because this place, yeah, potential is certainly there, but they say they desperately need investment. These machines are so old. And yes, so they say they would welcome American money.

五萬億美元。用特朗普總統的話說，這是烏克蘭最初認為能夠償還美國的金額。在這裡，你可以感受到真正的挑戰，因為這個地方，是的，潛力肯定是有的，但他們說他們迫切需要投資。這些機器太舊了。是的，他們說他們歡迎美國的資金。

The pressure to get money out of the ground is enormous, as are the questions as to whether the astronomical sums Trump thinks are here can match the money to be made under this sprawling sea of unknown potential. And who knows what rare earth is worth, you know, but at least it's something. And who knows what it's worth? Who knows if they even have it? It was at first Ukraine's idea, President Zelensky selling their mineral wealth in November, perhaps too successfully, as part of a victory plan for more aid, showing reporters maps here. They claim seven percent global production of titanium. Lithium isn't mined yet, but they say they've three percent global reserves. They say they're in the top five of graphite reserves and have some actual rare earth metals. The initial framework deal doesn't specify what it covers, mentioning only relevant resource assets that will be further described in another agreement. Yet the White House has been specific about some resources. There is a foundry that processes aluminum in Ukraine. It's been damaged. It's not at its current capacity. If that is restored, it would account for America's entire imports of aluminum for an entire year. The U.S. perhaps a little too eager to take

從地下掘金的壓力是巨大的，而特朗普所認為的天文數字是否能與這片潛力無窮的未知海洋下的財富相匹配，也是個問題。誰知道稀土值多少錢，你知道的，但至少是有價值的。誰知道它值多少錢？誰知道他們有沒有？這起初是烏克蘭的主意，澤連斯基總統在11月推銷他們的礦產資源，也許太成功了，作為爭取更多援助的勝利計劃的一部分，他向記者展示了這裡的地圖。他們聲稱鈦的產量佔全球的百分之七。鋰還沒開採出來，但他們說有全球百分之三的儲量。他們說他們的石墨儲量排在前五位，並擁有一些實際的稀土金屬。最初的框架協議並沒有明確說明它涵蓋了哪些內

Ukraine with no choice but to give in a hugely complex deal that may get messier still when it runs into the cold, hard ground truth of where Ukraine is at today. Ten second trivia. Who invented the first gas-powered car in 1886? Henry Ford, Carl Benz, Ferdinand Porsche, or Gottlieb Daimler?

烏克蘭別無選擇，只能屈服於一項極其複雜的協議，而當它遇到烏克蘭今天所處的冷酷無情的現實時，可能會變得更加混亂。十秒鐘小知識。誰在 1886 年發明了第一輛燃氣汽車？亨利-福特、卡爾-奔馳、費迪南德-保時捷還是戈特利布-戴姆勒？

Your answer is Carl Benz, the German mechanical engineer who created the first modern three-wheeled automobile that he dubbed the Motorwagen. For all the Back to the Future fans out there, do you remember the scene where the car, the DeLorean, backed out onto the street of the neighborhood, then lifted up and took off flying through the air? Well, imagine if that was our very near future because it may very well be. An automotive aviation company is promising a flying car that will transform commuting as we know it. Olive Aeronautics is now sharing with the world the first video of its flying car called the Model Zero. Our Jeremy Roth shows us how the company's CEO hopes to eventually make these cars cheaper and more accessible to everyday drivers.

答案就是卡爾-本茨（Carl Benz），這位德國機械工程師創造了第一輛現代三輪汽車，並將其命名為 "Motorwagen"。對於所有 "回到未來 "的影迷來說，你們還記得迪羅裡安（DeLorean）汽車倒退到街區街道上，然後騰空而起，在空中飛馳的場景嗎？想象一下，如果那就是我們不久的將來，因為它很可能就是。一家汽車航空公司承諾，飛行汽車將改變我們的通勤方式。Olive Aeronautics 公司正在與全世界分享其名為 "Model Zero "的飛行汽車的第一段視頻。我們的傑里米-羅斯（Jeremy

Today's story, getting a 10 out of 10, is one super pod of thousands of dolphins.

今天的故事滿分 10 分，是一個由數千條海豚組成的超級海豚群。

A pod is the collective noun for a group of dolphins and a tour boat captain captured this rare video of more than 2,000 of the flippers off the coast of Monterey Bay, California.

吊艙是一群海豚的集合名詞，一位旅遊船船長在加利福尼亞州蒙特雷灣海岸拍攝到了這段罕見的視頻，其中有 2000 多條海豚的鰭。

The video shows several species of dolphins swimming and breaching as far as the eye can see.

視頻顯示，在目之所及的範圍內，有多個種類的海豚在遊動和衝撞。

So what were they doing? Well, marine biologists say the massive pod may have been clustering to fend off predators or maybe to hunt for food or to socialize. It was a party and they definitely look like they were having some fun. All right, time now for our first shout out of the week, heading to the Buckeye State and the Warriors of West Branch High School in Beloit, Ohio, rise up. Here's your Monday reminder that this week is full of possibilities.

那麼，它們在做什麼呢？海洋生物學家說，這個巨大的莢可能是為了抵禦捕食者，也可能是為了覓食或社交。這是一場派對，它們看起來肯定玩得很開心。好了，現在是本週第一場吶喊助威的時間了，我們的目標是俄亥俄州貝洛伊特市西布蘭奇高中的勇士們。週一提醒您，本週充滿無限可能。
