A new national report released today is urging the Australian government to end the policy gridlock paralysing land use and productivity across the country, warning that ongoing conflict between mining, agriculture, and the rapidly growing renewables sector is stalling billions in investment and threatening Australia’s economic backbone.
In the drive to improve energy efficiency, recovery, and metallurgical precision, a global engineering company has released a quiet disruptor: a machine-learning-enabled sensor that’s helping mining operations monitor and optimise grind size with new levels of accuracy.
Western Australia’s listed companies have defied commodity headwinds to post a three point seven percent rise in collective market capitalisation, closing the 2025 financial year at A$362+ billion, according to the Deloitte WA Index Diggers & Dealers Special Edition.
From deserts to drill pads, remote exploration teams increasingly need to make informed, high-impact decisions without waiting weeks for lab results.
In the mining world, where uptime is profit and safety is paramount, innovations that reduce risk while boosting operational efficiency are prized.
Gem Midgley, principal consultant at Mira Geoscience, knows a thing or two about the practicalities of integrating complex geoscientific data.
As ore grades decline and sustainability pressures rise, mining operations are being forced to find new ways to optimise resource extraction.
For over 30 years, GreaseMax has quietly built a global reputation in plant rooms, on mine sites, and beneath conveyor lines.
In the race to squeeze more value from every tonne of ore, the mining sector is increasingly looking to data-rich, high-resolution technologies that can keep pace with operational demands.
As critical minerals projects advance in complexity and urgency, early-stage metallurgical testing is no longer a “nice to have”—it’s a gatekeeper to technical and financial viability.
