Cement, mining and minerals

Industry Overview

As society continues to become more urban we rely on cement, metals and minerals more than ever before. Our modern homes and offices, roads, power systems etc. would not exist without steel, copper, concrete and many other mined materials. Even the move towards cleaner energy sources and more efficient electric vehicles will demand more metals to be possible.
