This whitepaper scrutinises that question in context of the trends, challenges and opportunities associated with underground mining in the race to net zero, and the plausibility of hoisting as an available zero emissions solution.
Readers can expect an in-depth analysis on the following:
- The imperative to decarbonise – including the Australian legislative framework formalising emissions targets,
- The cruciality of the mining sector to supply the minerals and metals for clean energy transitions and a carbon-neutral future,
- The safety implications of digging deeper,
- Why sustainability and productivity are not mutually exclusive,
- The example of Swedish mining group LKAB a new world standard for underground mining.
- Hoisting as a proven, safe, zero emissions solution, and
- The example of BHP Group Limited (previously OzMinerals) Prominent Hill mine hoist upgrade to extend the mine life, lower emissions and improve productivity.
