“When applied to real-world nickel–cobalt–manganese (NCM) battery leachates, the method achieved 99.1 percent purity for nickel and 98.8 percent for cobalt, while maintaining recovery rates above 95 percent.” Wow!

Maybe it would not matter so much, if we could be sure that all of the mines would have put in enough of a deposit to fully cover their clean-up costs.
They haven’t.

So why the flurry of proposals for further extraction, & why do Au gov’ts continue to entertain them?
Reeve says it’s because “the thinking among those [proponent] companies is that they will be the last ones standing”.

The writing is on the wall, though, so large that even the [Au] government can read it. Treasury modelling released last month predicted the value of Australia’s fossil fuel exports would plunge by as much as 50 per cent – about $60 billion – over the next five years.

One project now part-way through assessment under the current EP&BC Act, an extension of the huge QLD BHP/Mitsubishi Peak Downs mine, aims to continue operations out to 2116.
The Australia Institute says the mine will produce 3b tonnes of CO2 & methane –as well as more than 1billion tonnes of coal.

A project now part-way through the process of assessment under the EP&BC Act, an extension of the huge BHP/Mitsubishi PeakDowns mine in Qld, aims to continue out to 2116.
Opponents, including The Australia Institute…say the mine would produce three billion tonnes of CO2 & methane +1b tonne of coal.
