As demand for raw materials continues to grow, scaling-up extraction alone is not enough. We must deliver greater value from every tonne mined.
This session explores how circular economy approach, advanced mineral processing design, and piloting solutions can turn tailings, mining waste, and side streams into value-added products. It also addresses the role of optimised tailings management in minimising environmental impact. Through real-world examples and applied research case studies, the session highlights pathways from laboratory testing to industrial implementation.
Discover how smart strategies for full-value recovery, process optimisation, and responsible tailings management come together in mining operations. Supported by strong partnerships and local ecosystems, the industry is moving towards 'Mined Once – Utilised in Full'
The session features a keynote speech, followed by a roundtable discussion with industry experts.
The EIT RawMaterials Summit is taking place at The Egg Brussels, Rue Bara 175, 1070 Bruxelles, Belgium. This is an immersive experience and full participation requires attendance in person: for this reason we don’t offer virtual attendance options. The venue is fully accessible.
Your ticket grants you access to all sessions, workshops, networking events, and exhibits, and includes refreshments and meals. One-day passes provide the same access and benefits. A limited number of tickets will be available at the event, but we strongly recommend registering online in advance to secure your spot and take advantage of early bird discounts.
The venue has partnered with recommended hotels to offer discounted rates for Raw Materials Summit attendees. Information is available here https://theeggbrussels.com/partners/#hotel-partners
