There’s a hot “new” battery metal in the mining industry’s Electric Vehicle support race. It’s an anode-grade, all-natural-flake graphite that can match or surpass the life cycles of its synthetic graphite competitors, all while increasing energy kWh capacity, at a much lower cost. In this article, the industry watchers at Resource Erectors take a […]
Greenland is living up to its name in more ways than one in our politically driven green energy age. The world’s largest island now finds itself square in the middle of a precious metals rush of supreme strategic importance to the world’s leading superpowers, the US and China.

The possibility of 40% replacement of diesel fuel with LNG. Resource Erectors has been keeping a close eye on the Keystone shutdown effect since the Biden administration terminated the essential domestic fuel supply pipeline project. This executive order can potentially triple the cost of traditional fossil fuels. Afterwards, thousands of newly unemployed American and […]
With approximately 1,000 new people adding to the population of Texas each day, the Texas Aggregates & Concrete Association (TACA) is taking the initiative to ensure that their member companies will be able to sustain the inevitable huge demand for aggregates, concrete, and cement.
How quickly the human resources environment has changed since we first posted our article “The Advantages of Boomerang Hiring in a Tight Labor Market” in December of 2019. At that time we were looking at the best unemployment numbers of a lifetime at just 3.5%, which was a 50-year low, and we focused on […]
