The Impact of the Energy
The growing demand for rare metals for green technologies is disrupting the mining industry. How can companies adapt to this new situation?
▪ Critical metals: Focus on metals essential to the energy transition (lithium, cobalt,
rare earths) and the issues involved in extracting them.
▪ Environmental and social issues: Discussion of the impacts of mining on the
environment and local communities, and solutions for minimizing these impacts.
▪ Adaptation strategies: Presentation of strategies that mining companies can adopt to
adapt to the energy transition, such as diversifying their activities, investing in clean
technologies and implementing responsible practices.
