Researchers from The University of Western Australia, Australia’s national science agency CSIRO, the Technical University of Denmark and the University of Exeter have developed a new mining technique that uses electric fields to extract metals from hard rock ore.
The technique could replace the traditional method of digging which results in significant costs to the environment.
Digging methods are currently used in 99 per cent of mining activity, often resulting in significant environmental degradation and huge quantities of solid waste.

Global estimates of waste are of the order of
100 gigatonnes per year, significantly larger than any other
form of waste generated by humans.

Advances. It is now being further developed and
refined with support from the Minerals Research Institute of
