Reinventing your company for growth
A decade of value in motion, marked by reconfiguration and innovation, awaits. Seize the moment to extend your lead—or to catch up to rivals.
Smart strategies and sharper execution so you can stay resilient and sustainable
Mining and metals
Demand for critical metals is surging. Supply chains are strained. Geopolitical risks are rising. Sustainability is no longer optional. The pressures are mounting.
At the same time, energy costs are up, markets are in flux and value opportunities are shifting—mining companies must adapt. To drive innovation and efficiency, they must integrate smarter tech into their circular strategies
Key trends impacting mining and metals
Demand for new minerals
Critical mineral demand is soaring to meet net zero, with lithium alone expected to grow over 40-fold by 2040. Graphite, cobalt, nickel and copper demand are also rising. These trends present massive opportunities for exploration and development.
ESG as a driver
Embedding ESG principles into your operations not only boosts long-term growth and strengthens investor confidence but also enhances your company’s social license to operate. Sustainable products, such as low-carbon aluminium can fetch premium prices in the market. And high ESG scores improve access to capital and financing, providing additional momentum for growth.
Deals to secure supply
M&A activity is shifting and the rising demand for critical minerals, plus geopolitical tensions, are disrupting supply chains. Nearly 40% of mining deals in 2023 involved critical minerals—a trend set to continue as companies seek assets with strong ESG credentials and links to government-backed projects.
Rising urban mining
Urban mining strengthens supply chains, reduces environmental impact and supports circular economy goals. With ‘green premium’ pricing on recycled metals, it’s becoming a competitive advantage.
