In this article:

  • We explore why critical minerals are designated ‘critical’ status.
  • Why mining companies are starting to think more holistically about the value of their resources.
  • How innovative mineral processing technologies and concentrator designs can help miners to get more out of critical resources.
  • What a responsible business ecosystem looks like in battery minerals.
  • What challenges currently exist in recycling black mass from electric vehicle batteries.
  • How greater collaboration between miners, METS companies and downstream players like automotive manufacturers, can help the market to keep pace with evolving battery chemistries.
  • Collaborative research projects that are pushing the boundaries in battery recycling.
  • How Metso’s solutions are turning tailings, mineral residues and by-products into valuable resources.
