There are two stories inside Grant Thornton's latest mining contractors report, and the one getting most of the attention is the wrong one.
The mining industry is not running out of deposits.
The pursuit of critical minerals is pushing miners deeper underground, where innovation—not just excavation—is becoming the key to unlocking value.
As the global mining industry continues to adapt to shifting expectations around productivity, sustainability, and cost-efficiency, exploration remains one of the most critical—and complex—phases in the mining life cycle.
When Whitehaven Coal acquired BMA’s Daunia and Blackwater mines in Queensland’s Bowen Basin, it wasn’t just the company’s biggest purchase to date.
The annual temperature check from the Fraser Institute has landed — and while the rocks haven’t moved, capital certainly has.
If you wanted a temperature check on Western Australia’s exploration sector last week, you didn’t need a feasibility study.
At first glance, the WA Mining Club’s Market Outlook Luncheon at Optus Stadium looked like it would follow a familiar script.
If you still think “energy recovery” belongs in the sustainability chapter of the annual report, Rockwell Automation would like a quiet word – preferably from inside a control tower humming with AI, digital twins and enough conveyor simulations to make your GPU blush.
