Recent trends in the mining and metals industry have put new pressures on companies to rethink their approaches to mining strategy and transform their industrial metal operations.
Rising demand for electric vehicles has increased demand for battery metals and lowered demand for specialty long steel; trade protections have stiffened; and pressure to meet environmental sustainability targets has mounted, forcing executives to grapple with new complexities. At the same time, while new digital technologies have enabled metals and mining industry players to achieve impressive gains in operational efficiency and effectiveness, they have also presented fresh challenges.
