Aiming to improve the valorization of mining waste into valuable resources
Join us for a webinar on cutting-edge methods that uncover the potential of side streams in mining through advanced mineralogical analysis and facilitate beneficiation analysis – insights developed by GTK Mintec.
Mining waste poses significant environmental challenges, and the mining sector has a responsibility to mitigate its impacts through circular practices and innovative waste management strategies. Minimizing waste generation from the start is more effective than managing it afterwards, which is essential for reducing risks and ensuring long-term environmental stability.
This free webinar dives into actionable strategies to reduce mining waste and create circular value in mining. Discover how optimized process design can turn mining waste into useful resources – a critical step toward a sustainable future.

MinerAll
By focusing on innovative evaluation frameworks, GTK launched the MinerAll project in 2023, aiming to improve the valorization of mining waste into valuable resources, thereby promoting sustainability and reducing environmental impact.
This webinar is showcasing insights and methods developed within the MinerAll project: Mine Tailing Productization and Utilization Enhancement With Automated Mineralogy.
