How Nevada Mining Companies Stayed Afloat During the COVID-19 Storm

The mining sector has always had a robust culture of disaster preparedness, safety and health awareness, given its familiarity with the volatility of the markets and its innate inelastic supply and demand.

Study Finds That Recycling Battery Minerals Produces Smaller Carbon Footprint

A new study conducted by a team of researchers from the Aalto University in Finland has found that the carbon footprint of raw materials acquired through recycling electric vehicle batteries is 38% less than that of virgin raw materials. In order to reach this conclusion, the researchers used simulation-based life cycle to account for water and energy consumption as well as emissions in smelting, a hydrometallurgical recycling process. Generally, this technique loses various raw materials including lithium while new hydrometallurgical processes work by separating battery metals from waste through dissolution, which allows the minerals to be recovered. However, the process…

As stated above, this big appetite is primarily driven by a widespread acceptance…
