Global decarbonisation, supply chain concentration risks, and intensifying geopolitical competition are reshaping mineral markets.

Demand for critical minerals and green metals is accelerating, while governments and investors expect higher environmental performance, stronger community outcomes, and greater sovereign capability in mid-stream processing and recycling. Australia faces a strategic opportunity to move beyond extraction, strengthen supply chain resilience, enable responsible mine closure and circularity, and align R&D investment with long-term national competitiveness.

We can help you explore these themes by offering:

  • National and sector strategies for critical minerals and green metals: Development of long-term, science-informed strategies and roadmaps that identify priority commodities, technologies, value-chain opportunities and ecosystem actions.
  • Techno-economic and market analysis for mineral processing and recycling: Robust assessment of emerging extraction, mid-stream processing and resource recovery technologies, including cost structures, competitiveness, scale requirements and emissions profiles.
  • Mine closure, rehabilitation and transition opportunity assessment: Strategic analysis of mine closure liabilities, waste recovery potential, circular economy pathways and post-closure land-use transitions.
  • R&D ecosystem mapping and investment prioritisation: Mapping of national and international research strengths, capability gaps and collaboration opportunities across the mineral value chain.
