Circular Economy in Mining

A circular economy in mining is a sustainable approach that aims to minimize waste and reuse materials. Instead of extracting, using, and discarding minerals and metals, this system emphasizes recycling scrap, reprocessing waste, and designing products to be easily recoverable at the end of their life. It reduces the need for new mining, conserves resources, and lowers environmental impact. By closing the loop on material use, the industry becomes more efficient, less harmful to ecosystems, and better prepared for future resource demands.
