New Visualisation of the Metals and Minerals Value Chain Emphasises the Side Streams and Their Value

Carbon-neutral future increases the demand for minerals and metals and calls for a sustainable, resilient value chain and supply. Also, EU with its Critical Raw Materials Act emphasizes this. The effective utilisation of circular economy has its place in the value chain. To highlight this, Nordic Sustainable Minerals project launches a new value chain visualisation that realistically visualises the mapping and exploration as well as size of the side streams and their potential as raw materials. The project is led by Geological Survey of Finland GTK.
