🚨 The Euromines Roadmap to Net-Zero is Here!🚨 ✅ Euromines proudly presents its plan to achieve net-zero emissions in the European mining sector, supporting the EU Green Deal and securing sustainable resource management. Operational Solutions: 💡 Electrification of mining machinery to cut emissions. 💡 Adoption of alternative fuels like hydrogen and biofuels for hard-to-electrify areas. 💡 Investments in Carbon Capture, Utilisation, and Storage (CCUS) technologies to drive down process emissions. 💡 Circular economy innovations to maximise resource use and minimise waste where feasible. Policy Priorities: 🎯 Use of the Clean Industrial Deal and Industrial Decarbonisation Accelerator Act to strengthen the business case for net-zero mining. 🎯 Decoupling fossil-free energy production from fossil-based price-setting and indirect CO2 cost compensation. 🎯 A coherent industrial carbon strategy for sustainable mining. 🎯 Facilitating permitting of infrastructure to drive up investments 🔗Read more on our website: https://lnkd.in/eR8hC_yN 🔗Read our press release: https://lnkd.in/ehQF9vrg 🔗Discover the roadmap: https://lnkd.in/eM3HBjtJ Let’s drive Europe’s clean transition together. 🌱✨ #Euromines #Decarbonisation #NetZero #SustainableMining #CleanTransition #GreenTransition #Mining #MiningInEurope #MiningIndustry #Metals #Minerals

Yesterday in Brussels, we gathered at the RHI Magnesita Cocktail event to celebrate two significant milestones! Representatives from Europe's magnesite, magnesium chloride mining, and magnesia producing industries came together to sign a #pledge emphasizing the strategic importance of these materials for the European Union. This pledge aims to ensure their inclusion in the 2025 update of the EU’s Critical and Strategic Raw Materials List and it underlines the unquestionable importance of these materials to enable the #sustainabilitytransition. The event also marked the launch of the latest study, “Magnesite & Magnesia – A Critical Raw Material?”, published in collaboration with the University of Leoben. An eye-opening talk with the author of the study, Dr. Mont. Eva Gerold and Constantin Beelitz, was followed by a panel where invitees discussed with Kerstin Jorna from the European Commission the current opportunities and next steps building up on the experiences of RHI Magnesita, Eurometaux (European Metals Association) and Nedmag B.V..
