The copper demand is projected to grow by 70% through to 2050, with growing infrastructure and electrification driving demand. Copper is at the heart of powering a more sustainable future. See more insights from BHP’s copper report. #CopperDemand #Mining https://bit.ly/4foSBVu

What's the actual value of minerals and metals in our daily lives? By 2050, the global population is set to surge by nearly 25%, driving an unprecedented demand for minerals and metals. However, meeting this demand while adhering to low-carbon and low-impact standards presents a challenge. Can the mining industry's traditional 'extract and transact' model adapt to support the low-carbon future society expects?

Demand for minerals crucial to the energy transition is rising. The total market size for energy transition minerals doubled between 2018 and 2023, and demand only continues to grow. What minerals are deemed "critical minerals" and how will they shape the next era of global energy strategies? Explore how critical minerals and their impact on technological advancements will shape the future in Global Foresight: Preparing for Future Trends. In this program, expert scholars will empower participants to forecast and prepare for the macrotrends set to define the next three decades. Led by top scholars and CSIS experts participants will explore a range of key issues, from critical mineral availability to demographic change to artificial intelligence. Join us from October 21-24, 2024, at CSIS Headquarters or virtually, to expand your foresight toolkit and network with peers and policy experts alike. Register by October 9, 2024 at cs.is/globalforesight and lead your organization confidently into the future. #GlobalForesight #FutureTrends #CriticalMinerals #ExecutiveEducation #Energy #Mining #Futures #Strategy

This is a fascinating look at the short-to-mid term outlook on some of the most critical minerals we need and use in today's world. Seeing where primary mining and refining occurs, as well as demand outlook paints a unique (and somewhat grim) picture. Adding in supply, geopolitical, and ESG/climate risk, shows us just how volatile the future could be for the building blocks of our technological age. I'm a big believer that necessity drives innovation - and now is a perfect time to find alternatives to these critical minerals. Because relying on a consistent supply 10, 20, or 30 years into the future is highly unlikely. #urbanmining #thefutureisnow #recycling https://lnkd.in/gHRvha5V

The #metals and #mining sector continues to play an important and critical role in the robust growth of global economies. Given the quantum of supply of raw materials required to develop emerging industries, such as solar photovoltaics, electric cars, and batteries, metals and mining sector will be essential to the #energytransition. #KPMG India's latest report looks at the crucial juncture of the metals and mining sector in India and lays out the fundamentals that would help build the roadmap ahead.

As the energy transition advances, there is a significant gap between the supply and demand of the critical minerals required for batteries and other green technologies. Here are five aspects of critical minerals that need urgent attention in order to achieve a just and sustainable transition. 🌎 Read here: https://ow.ly/b8ML50QAENI UpLink is partnering with Prospect Innovation to support start-ups, innovators and researchers helping the mining and metals sector's transformation and to meet the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). ⚡Learn about the partnership here: https://ow.ly/y9F050QAEUR

Yesterday, the World Economic Forum in collaboration with McKinsey & Company released this report which describes in detail the barriers and solutions to investment and innovation needed to unlock increased production of critical minerals. "McKinsey analysis indicates that investments of $300-400 billion in mining, refining and smelting would be needed per year through 2030 to meet growing demand" for the energy transition. While policy makers have been working to increase production and processing of critical minerals, it's clear more action, more quickly is needed if we want to meet this challenge. #criticalminerals

"Decarbonising the global economy will require 6.5bn tonnes of metal between now and 2050, according to the Energy Transitions Commission. Although much attention has been paid to the lithium and nickel needed for batteries, they are only one part of the picture." - The Economist on material needs for the transition. https://lnkd.in/dpseiNYp Read our Materials and Resources Requirements for the Energy Transition report to understand the *full* picture 👉 https://lnkd.in/eCkPhyw5
