Battery metals from mine waste: Our global opportunity

The modern mining industry is required to not only generate more metals to service the technology requirements of the energy transition, but to do so with a heightened focus on sustainability and ethical practises. Cobalt Blue’s focus on sulphide-rich mine waste aims to satisfy both these goals, by re-mining metalliferous waste whilst improving environmental outcomes, particularly that of acid mine drainage.
