June 27, 2023

 

Talk by Karen Hudson-Edwards, Camborne School of Mines on Tuesday 27th June 2023, Queen Square, Bath.

Are we moving from “The Age of Oil” to “The Age of Minerals”? A talk exploring how the necessity of making the transition to greener energy practices requires the use of minerals such as lithium, cobalt and rare earth elements as the source materials for new technologies. How in which case do we move towards sustainable mining practices?

The second in a series of three talks accompanying the BRLSI exhibition, ‘Riches of the Earth’
