Mobile crushing and screening is undergoing a radical shift.
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.
What if the smartest way to power your remote mine site was silent, clean, low-maintenance - and already outsmarting diesel and solar in the field? For Chelsea Kovacs, business development manager at SFC Energy Canada, the answer lies in compact, intelligent fuel cell technology - specifically, direct methanol fuel cells that operate quietly, efficiently, and with minimal emissions.
For Superintendent of Mine Planning Anne-Marie Ebbels, the expansion of BHP’s Prominent Hill operation isn’t just a technical upgrade—it’s a strategic shift in how the mine approaches longevity, productivity and sustainability.
As global demand for high-purity copper climbs in step with electrification and renewable energy targets, attention is turning to the tankhouses that produce this critical metal.
In the ever-evolving field of mineral exploration, the challenge of interpreting surface geochemical data in complex terrains has long limited early-stage targeting success.
When Sweden-based miner Boliden set out to futureproof its Renström underground operations for autonomous mining, it quickly ran into a persistent problem: water.
A new report from the Geological Survey of Western Australia shines a spotlight on some of Australia’s most underexplored frontiers—Neoproterozoic basins with the potential to reshape the future of clean energy and critical gases.
A quiet revolution may be underway in the metallurgical processing world, and it starts not with a new orebody, but with the way water is removed from copper concentrate.
A new generation of advanced minerals processing is quietly gaining traction in Western Australia, where a technology-focused operator is refining a modular flowsheet for producing ultra-high purity alumina — and it’s already hitting 5N grade in pilot tests.
