Critical and economically significant metals, such as cobalt and nickel, can be recovered profitably from metal refining wastes as well as ores with lower than usual concentrations. This was demonstrated by an EU project coordinated by VTT, which developed new and combined existing recovery methods. Various stakeholders interested in using low-grade ores and waste can evaluate the valorization of raw-material streams with the webtool developed in the project.

Grosvenor Mine Incident in Australia

Statement by QRC Chief Executive Ian Macfarlane:

Many of the 372,000 men and women working in Queensland’s resources industry do not know the mine workers critically injured at Grosvenor Mine near Moranbah in central Queensland yesterday.

But today each of us – as members of the resources family – send our prayers to them, their families and their workmates.

More than 100 industry representatives will join our regular Covid-19 teleconference update today. On that call, we will reaffirm our commitment, as an industry, to the priority of safety for all.

No one knows precisely what happened at Grosvenor Mine yesterday, and the Mines Inspectorate is undertaking a full investigation and it will make its findings.

No one should preempt those findings.

On behalf of the industry, I told Mines Minister Dr Anthony Lynham the Inspectorate will have our support and cooperation.

The Queensland Resources Council and its member companies have worked with the Government and unions on the expert reports into mine safety following the tragic loss of six lives since July 2018.

Dr Lynham has reaffirmed his commitment to work with us.

Room for something new: Bauer Umwelt carries out Soil Remediation on the historic Diamalt Site in Munich

Anyone setting foot in Diamaltpark in the Munich district of Allach-Untermenzing is entering a historic site. It was here that, in 1903, the production of diastatic malt extract was started. It was a revolutionary ingredient that made the manufacture of bread and baked goods possible in the quantities that we are now accustomed to. Today, three heritage listed buildings at the center of the former factory site remind us of the illustrious boom period of Diamalt AG: A soup seasoning factory, a workshop building and a machine and boiler house. They will in future be landmarks in a new district that is being built on and around the empty site.
