Metals enable the energy transition through their use in low-carbon technologies, but the production of metal is emissions-intensive. How can the metals and mining industry ramp up production to meet demand while finding its way to net-zero emissions? Is electrification the answer? Read on to find out.
We recycle a fraction of the metal that we extract – despite the fact that most can be reused infinitely. Is that set to change? How much scrap could be recovered? And is it possible to eliminate the need for mining and processing primary metal?
Gold is back in the spotlight, but the resurgent price highlights a challenge. Insufficient exploration spend has left gold reserves significantly depleted – but three factors could help to avert a fall in supply.
The smelting operations at Weiqiao, Zouping and Binzhou are costed as a single entity. Total capacity reached 9.15 Mtpa in 2018, with liquid metal accounting for the majority of production. Of which 6.46 Mtpa are on operation. Wood Mackenzie’s asset reports are built from the bottom up, incorporating a number of granular data metrics to ultimately produce our industry standard cash operating…
Weiqiao moved 2.03 million coal-fired aluminium capacity from Shandong to Yunnan province in pursuit of green hydropower and low carbon emission. Planned investment RMB 17 billion (US$ 2.6bn). When the project achieves full operation, it will be the largest low-carbon aluminium smelter in the world and contribute to greatly reduce carbon emission. The new smelter would produce a high proportion of…
The mining industry needs investment now, or there is a risk of metal shortages in ten year's time. What will it take to convince investors that the time is right?
The new mining code may become effective in less than four months, meaning extra costs for local mining companies.
European governments provide welcome support for steel decarbonisation in post-pandemic plans
Metals producers face a dual challenge in the energy transition – meeting global demand for critical commodities while also cutting emissions. For aluminium the challenge is greater – of all the metals, it faces the biggest impact from carbon pricing. But how significant is the risk? And is carbon neutral aluminium achievable?
What does the path to becoming greener look like for steel and aluminium, two carbon-intensive industries?
How has a year of unprecedented challenges affected mined commodities? Julian Kettle shares his view on the impact of a global pandemic, and the opportunities and risks posed by the energy transition.
The major mining houses are awash with cash and rewarding shareholders with eye-wateringly high dividends. Is this setting up the industry to be unable to deliver an accelerated energy transition?
The huge challenge of meeting the demand for metals created by a 2050 net-zero carbon target is no secret in the mining community. But with the industry underinvesting even for a slower energy transition, policy makers must act to stimulate supply before it’s too late, says Julian Kettle, Senior Vice President, Metals and Mining.
Despite a lack of globally aligned policies and projects for carbon reduction, we see COP26 as a qualified success. So, what are the implications?
In our rapid response webinar, our experts discussed the impact the crisis in Ukraine is having on global commodities.
Steel emissions will drop 30% by 2050 – but more transformative change is needed to keep pace with an accelerated energy transition.
A focus on carbon emissions is driving a new dynamic for the energy-intensive smelting industry.
Miners’ collective balance sheets have never been stronger, but with surpluses rising and deficits falling the outlook is changing. With margin contraction a growing issue have the miners missed the opportunity to lock in future growth and returns?

Understanding lithium market nuances is vital to forecasting future demand, supply and pricing
What will decide whether the sector can achieve net zero emissions while delivering the raw materials vital to the energy transition?
The global lithium market stands at a pivotal moment. While currently experiencing a surplus, the industry faces an inevitable transformation as electric vehicle adoption accelerates, and energy storage demand surges. This creates a fundamental challenge for investors: understanding which extraction pathway offers the most compelling risk-adjusted returns in an increasingly complex landscape where supply deficits are projected to emerge by the mid-2030s.
We expect renewables to remain competitive, and while protectionism will rise, a full repeal of Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) is unlikely
