Mining council zeroing in on aluminium, copper, silicon, steel in accelerating circular economy

In setting up to accelerate a global circular economy, the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM) will be focusing on the value chains of wind turbines and solar photovoltaic panels and zeroing in on aluminium, copper, silicon and steel. ICMM members include the Johannesburg Stock Exchange-listed African Rainbow Minerals, Anglo American, Glencore, Gold Fields, Sibanye-Stillwater and South32 and circular economics involves reducing material use, redesigning products to be less resource intensive, and recapturing “waste” as a resource to manufacture afresh.
