Critical minerals can represent an unmatched opportunity to drive growth. But an over-reliance on this sector comes with economic and political risks. Explore the latent opportunity that critical minerals represent for Latin America: http://econimpact.co/vG #criticalminerals #mining

In its latest report, the Minerals Council of Australia has released a strategy to support the Australian industry’s successful integration into fast-growing, high-demand global supply chains. #criticalminerals #commodities #miningnews #miningmagazine

China's dominance in global mineral markets poses a critical supply risk for the US, especially for defense technology. While Washington has initiated measures to lessen dependence on China—such as engaging with resource-rich nations, promoting recycling, revising mining laws, and offering financial support for mining—achieving significant results will take time. BENS recently interviewed three industry leaders for their perspectives on this complex challenge: Jonathan Evans, President and CEO of Lithium Americas Corp.; Selina Hayes, Founder and CEO of Hayes Group International; and Anthony Weiss, Executive Director at TechMet Ltd, USA.

BENS is fortunate tonhave some real experts on critical materials, processing and mining.

During this week’s critical #InnovatiON story, we’re highlighting SPC Nickel Corp who received funding from the Critical Minerals Innovation Fund (CMIF). This Ontario based company located in Sudbury is working on a project that will improve processing techniques used to extract critical metals from host rock by introducing an innovative sensor-based ore sorting technology. This project aims to reduce environmental impacts while increasing economic benefits. Keep up each week as we continue to #Spotlight more projects focusing on critical minerals innovation.

🔋Tin is essential for the anodes in sodium-ion batteries, a promising technology for the future of EVs. Projections indicate an additional 100,000 tonnes of tin will be needed by 2030 to support this emerging market. The major players in the tin industry, the smelters, are facing a significant challenge as traditional supply sources dwindle. Artisanal supplies from Southeast Asia are no longer sufficient, and the US strategic reserves have been depleted. With tin now back on the critical minerals list, there’s a clear need for investment in upstream mining projects. As the demand for tin continues to rise, Elementos is committed to addressing this growing demand and securing supply to meet future needs. #Elementos #ELT #tin #TinSupply #CriticalMinerals #SodiumIonBatteries #MiningIndustry #FutureTechnologies #EV #Sustainability #Innovation #batterymetals 

Australia is a leading supplier of the minerals the world needs to reach net zero and the latest release of Australia's Identified Mineral Resources, published by Geoscience Australia, shows that Australia produced 27 minerals, 15 of which ranked in the top five for global supply. It also shows Australia is number one in the world in economic resources for gold, iron ore, lead, nickel, rutile, uranium, zinc and zircon. #minerals #mineralexploration #mineralprocessing #mineralresources #criticalminerals #mining
