Mining

Mining creates many of the essential building blocks for our modern world.

From traditional uses of steel, copper and alloys for cities; infrastructure for transport, communication and energy transmission; cars, boats, planes, satellites and smartphones; to battery metals and critical minerals making possible the exciting developments in renewable energy generation and storage – minerals and metals we create, together with the technologies that use them, are driving an ever more sustainable future.

Mining is becoming more sustainable, with a greater focus on ESG concerns. We are assisting our mining clients, mining financiers and governments to navigate and deliver on these ESG concerns, across all parts of the mining life-cycle. Miners are consulting more widely with social stakeholder and community groups to ensure they engage with ESG concerns. They are increasingly using innovative technology to automate processes for a safer workplace and with less impact on the environment. Financiers are demanding, and rewarding, sustainable mining projects.
