As the mining sector navigates the energy transition, understanding the interplay between environmental impacts and commodity economics becomes increasingly crucial.

Join us for an afternoon of networking and presentations at the Royal Geological Society in Piccadilly, on the 10th October 2023.

Discover more about energy intensity, GHG emissions and water use across supply chains, from mine to finished metal, for a wide range of commodities. 

Date: 10th October 2023

Time: 1PM- 4PM
