Add to Calendar 2026-05-20 14:00:00 EIT RawMaterials Summit 2026: Mined Once – Utilised in Full: Towards Resource Efficient Mining  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.  Rue Bara 175, 1070 Bruxelles, Belgium, The Egg, Cinema Room RAW MATERIALS http://eitrmsummit.com/eit-rawmaterials-summit-2026/mined-once-utilised-full-towards-resource-efficient-mining Europe/Brussels public
