The re-direction of small deposit mining: Technological solutions for raw materials supply security in a whole systems context

Large-scale mining of low-grade ores is energy-intensive and generates vast wastes. It has limited suitability for production of specialist metals that are required in relatively small quantities. An approach that limits environmental impact by restricting mining to high-grade deposits requires the...
