Environmental innovation integrated into mine site operations are key to both 2030 emissions reduction targets and for community support.
Brownfield sites, development stage and operating mining companies can become solar-battery energy projects for sustainable mining. Magnified recently, energy costs can become a runaway line item in AISC. The US has over 17,000 mining sites. Over 540 former sites could host utility-scale PV projects of more than 5 MW capacity, according to a recent report by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), or $348B/annum in energy value. There is a new frontier in unlocking value and energy independence whether mine sites are in development, operation or reclamation.
Circular Economy best practices and circular materials integration can support ESG criteria and enhance supply-chain management.
These inventions and solutions are the result of observing our Founders decades of investments in and managing mining services for soft and hard rock mining companies. Many never make it to the development or production stage. Some of these investments become losses due to the ripple effect of rising energy costs, overseas competition, lack of funding and missing EPA conditions.
Our innovations can offer a competitive edge and a new revenue stream by merging land use, new solar technology and the Circular Economy for positive environmental impact for the mining and recycling of critical US and Canadian green metals and minerals necessary for the Energy Transition.
