From pit to port: new issue of MINE Australia out now

The new Australia edition of our digital magazine is out now – you can read it online for free. Here are this month’s top stories:

Reaching full integration of mining operations is fast becoming a priority for mining companies facing increasingly competitive markets, rising production costs, a need to find efficiencies and challenging decarbonisation demands. For this issue, we sat down with ABB, AVEVA and Rockwell Automation to discuss the concept of pit-to-port integration, the software and systems involved and the drivers behind implementation.  

We also look at the leading adopters of robotic mining technologies in Australia and find out how companies are using cleaner diesel alternatives as an immediate solution to reducing operational emissions while the sector waits for electrification technologies to mature.   

Plus, we learn how dewatering mine tailings could significantly reduce the economic and reputational risks involved in managing tailings facilities, and why this approach could work well for Australia.  

In commodities, we find out whether Australia’s investment in critical minerals and rare earths is enough to boost domestic production and reduce its reliance on Chinese supplies, and look at the forecast for gold production in the country.

Supplement: ESG in mining

We also have an entire supplement dedicated to environmental, social and governance (ESG) in this issue, where we investigate the latest driving forces in ESG, what mining companies need to know about the shift to mandatory ESG reporting and key net-zero strategies. Plus, we explore a wide spectrum of environmental, social responsibility and corporate governance issues through expert interviews, analyst comment and in-depth analysis.
