“All energy-producing machinery must be fabricated from materials extracted from the earth. No energy system, in short, is actually “renewable,” since all machines require the continual mining and processing of millions of tons of primary materials and the disposal of hardware that inevitably wears out. Compared with hydrocarbons, green machines entail, on average, a […]
The fragility of the global metals supply chain exposed by the pandemic shutdowns will continue to be the leading factor contributing to uncertainty in industries across the board. Now as the scramble to recover continues in 2022, the global metals supply chain could be tightening even further.
Hydrogen vs. Lithium: Let’s get ready to rumble!

“With each new pledge and plan to accelerate renewable energy deployment and build the homegrown electric auto industry of tomorrow, we are financing enormous mineral demand while doing little more than paying lip service to building the industrial base needed to supply it.”- Katie Sweeney-Billings Gazette
“Advances in overland conveying technology have improved efficiency, reduced capital and operating costs, and made the conveying process more environmentally friendly and sustainable. One important metric that supports this is the cost for transporting material, which is $2 – $3 less per ton using overland conveying compared to trucking, factoring in capital expense and […]
“It would be wonderful if you could make your plant maintenance-free. You can’t. But cone crushers, screens, conveyors, everything involved is more maintenance-free.”- Aggregate Specialist DAN JOHNSON- Interview at Pit and Quarry Crushing, Conveying, and Screening Goes High Tech Technology solutions for the aggregates industry are providing more actionable data to improve processes and […]
Resource Erectors Tech Update 2021 Part Two “Where no miner has gone before” makes a great headline but truthfully the 2021 robotic workforce is more accurately described as “going back to where no human miner can return”, at least for the lucrative extraction stage of the mining process. While robotics are finally taking center […]
