Repairing a giant mining tyre can do more than save replacement cost: for some Australian OTR tyres, it can also avoid up to 10 tonnes of calculated CO₂ while keeping a high-value asset in service.
Mine water safety conversations default to tailings dams, but Dr Cherie McCullough spent an hour explaining why the larger risk is day to day exposure to as little as 1.
WA-listed companies added almost A$131 billion in market value during FY26, but the strongest performers did more than catch a commodity upswing.
The WA Mining Club wanted Aaron Morey’s last word on Four Corners – what it got was a more revealing argument about mining, technology and the dangerous appeal of simple answers.
The pursuit of critical minerals is pushing miners deeper underground, where innovation—not just excavation—is becoming the key to unlocking value.
Seiche waves might be rare in mining, but new research shows they could pack enough force to overtop in-pit tailings storage facilities with serious consequences for operations, infrastructure, and safety.
A waste stream from iron ore processing is proving it can outperform conventional materials in building mine haul roads and deliver major environmental gains.
When mining operators are faced with the challenge of dewatering a live tailings storage facility (TSF) under 30 metres of cover, conventional engineering approaches often buckle under pressure - literally and figuratively.
The future of underground mining could mean no one sets foot underground at all - a zero-entry mine powered by autonomy, interoperability, and constantly updated digital twins.
PLS’ Pilgangoora Operation delivered a standout June quarter, with production volumes up 77 percent and unit operating costs down 10 percent compared to the previous quarter thanks to the integration of the world’s largest lithium ore sorting plant.
