CSIRO, Australia’s national science agency, has revealed new research forecasting a bright new future for Australia’s critical mineral resources – as building blocks for renewable energy products.
The research shows how mining and manufacturing sectors can work together to turn mineral resources, such as lithium and silicon, into products for renewable energy, like electric vehicles, solar panels and wind turbines.
The Critical Energy Minerals Roadmap found significant potential for Australia to reshape its mining sector to capitalise on the opportunity, as a nation rich in essential mineral resources.
