Important dialogue here at the Raw Materials Week on the back of another step forward on the EU Critical Raw Materials Act…. Take home messages: 1) access to finance remains unresolved (and asking financiers to reconsider their risk appetite is not the solution :)), 2) delivering new resources into the project pipeline…. On 2) i am happy to return to Kosovo after this event, get my boots dirty again, and cooperate with our local team, led by Mentor Demi , at Western Tethyan Resources Ltd to deliver on our ambition to discover new copper and gold resources. Never stop exploring! #criticalrawmaterials #CRMAct MGE - Mining Governance Europe

A professional tribute to my dear sister RiP. A true trailblazer in e-governance at times when the world had not yet figured out how to run public governance in a growing digital era. Keep smiling Miriam, till the end of days.

Establishment of a Kosovo Chamber of Mines serves a dual purpose: 1) contribute to the development of a modern minerals industry in Kosovo, 2) help positioning Kosovo as trusted partner in the global resource diplomacy, where security of supply of (critical) raw materials is high on many political and commercial agendas. I am please to contribute to the opening event, where I am joined by distinguished speakers from industry, government, and civil society; Mentor Demi, Alaudin Kodra, Mentor Arifaj, Nurten Deva

At the crossroads of societal challenges - Dutch newspaper Trouw and Daan Marselis reporting this week about shortage in Earth Science skills to satisfy our national and European critical raw material ambitions, whilst Earth Science academic education at Amsterdam Free University is fighting for survival (Red Aardwetenschappen)…. >>> critical raw materials or critical education ? KNGMG Royal Geological and Mining Society of the Netherlands Meanwhile at the other side of the Atlantic ….. Yesterday, the Senate unanimously passed the Mining Schools Act in a bipartisan fashion. The Mining Schools Act aims to enhance the capabilities of mining schools to recruit and train students in geology, engineering, and energy development. The next generation of the U.S. mining workforce will play a crucial role in securing domestic supply chains with responsibly produced minerals and will play a vital role in filling the jobs needed for mining projects moving into production. - In 2020, U.S. mining and mineral engineering schools awarded only 327 degrees. In comparison, China graduates over 5,000 students annually. - To learn more, please visit the link below: https://lnkd.in/gHu7gkvT
