Copper, gold and lithium dominate mining deals 🔋🚀💯The race is on for minerals critical to the green economy. With the global push towards green energy, these metals are at the forefront of industry transformation. As demand for sustainable solutions grows, the strategic importance of these resources cannot be overstated. Investors and industry leaders, this is the moment to pay attention. The opportunities in mining are evolving rapidly, and those who adapt will lead the charge into a greener, more sustainable future

How can the mining industry meet the rising demand for critical minerals? Carly Leonida's article for The Intelligent Miner focuses on the urgent need to rethink our approach to sourcing essential resources. As traditional methods struggle to keep pace with increasing demand, alternative solutions like Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) are gaining traction. Kevin Kammerzell, Vice President of Mining, Minerals and Metals at Stantec, highlights, "The world needs to expand its idea of what constitutes a 'resource', and it needs to do so quickly." Mining companies must adapt by leveraging innovative technologies and exploring non-traditional resources to bridge the supply-demand gap. This includes mining industrial waste and reprocessing tailings, as seen with Rio Tinto's tellurium production from copper waste. The industry's transformation will require substantial investment and a commitment to sustainability to ensure long-term success.

Copper mining significantly influences the economy by generating revenue, creating jobs, and fostering technological advancements. High-grade copper concentrate, like that achieved by Copper 360, can lead to more efficient operations and substantial profitability, further contributing to economic growth. #copperconcentrate #inproduction #copper360

Is this true? “The critical mineral industry required to power the energy transition away from fossil fuels is in an unhealthy state and running ahead of itself, says Barrick Gold Corporation chief executive Mark Bristow”. If this is true does it means we need to first establish the supply chain necessary prior to declaring that we have an industry for each select critical mineral? #mining #criticalminerals #supplychain https://lnkd.in/grVPbRn3

Embracing change is vital in the mining industry, as is staying current with the latest developments. A recent study described '5 Trends Shaping Africa's Mining Industry in 2024,' emphasising the increase in demand for battery minerals, finance issues, the importance of sustainability, geopolitical threats, and digital change. These insights hit close to home for us at Alpha Resources. They're exactly what we need to keep in mind as we navigate this complex industry while pushing forward with our sustainable and innovative mining practices. 🔗: https://lnkd.in/dwm5X6fG #GreenMining #AlphaResources #SustainableLeadership #TrendsInMining

Unlocking unprecedented growth in the mining industry! Green minerals' demand could create a $10 trillion market by 2050. To seize this opportunity, miners must embrace new practices and thinking. Years of underinvestment demand strategic choices. Expanding production is the key to reaping benefits in the clean-energy market. Discover transformative investments for long-term growth in our latest article - https://lnkd.in/gR9ZntaR The time is now to change how you approach strategic planning. #MiningGrowth #GreenMinerals #StrategicPlanning Thank you to our authors for their contributions! Thomas Vogt, Duncan Melville, CFA, Elton Parker, Brian O'Malley, and Peter Clearkin

Eleven projects in upstream mining and mineral extraction, four projects in midstream minerals processing, and two projects in recycling and recovery; One project focusing primarily on lithium; three on graphite; two on nickel; one on cobalt; one on manganese; two on copper; and seven on rare earth elements; Five projects in the Americas, seven projects in Africa, three projects in Europe, and two projects in Asia-Pacific.

As the mining industry gathers in #CapeTown for #MiningIndaba, my colleagues Thomas Vogt, Duncan Melville, CFA, Elton Parker, Brian O'Malley and Peter Clearkin have published a great paper around unlocking growth for mining players. Key messages: 1) Miners have an unparalleled opportunity to supercharge their growth—but to capitalize on this potential, they must invest in new practices and ways of thinking. 2) Demand for green minerals is expected to create hundreds of billions in new value during the next several years, with some estimates projecting that green-metal purchases could reach $10 trillion by 2050. 3) But years of underinvestment leave most miners with expensive choices to make. To reap the benefits of the clean-energy market, most will need to expand production output by several times today’s levels. 4) The right investments can be transformative and help miners secure lucrative, long-term growth, though determining what those bets are will require a different type of planning than most miners are accustomed to. 5) The future is bright, but to avail themselves of it, mining organizations need to fundamentally change how they approach strategic planning.
