Welcome to the reading list, where each month, I recommend 10 standout articles, podcast episodes, blog posts and papers from publications across the web. It’s a little something to brighten your day and whet your appetite for our upcoming month of content on The Intelligent Miner.
This month – September 2026 – our editorial theme and reading list focus on energy transition and critical raw materials. From securing resilient supplies of critical minerals and expanding processing capacity to the geopolitics of resource security, evolving battery value chains and the role of innovation in meeting growing demand, we’ll explore the opportunities and challenges defining the next phase of the energy transition.
Enjoy! Carly
