From Earth to Orbit | Exploring the tech transforming mining

Technological innovations including advancements in AI, automation and data analytics are irreversibly changing the mining sector. In this special edition episode in advance of the Resourcing Tomorrow event in London this December, our speakers  discuss the technological applications that are revolutionising exploration, resource extraction, processing and mine management to enhance efficiency, safety and sustainability across the value chain.

Boots or Bots | Building the mining workforce of the future

Across the globe, the mining sector is undergoing a transformation. Rapid technological change, automation, and digitisation are reshaping the very nature of mining work — creating new roles, requiring new skills, and shifting the dynamics of traditional operations. At the same time, the industry faces increasing pressure to attract and retain talent in a highly competitive global labour market. These requirements sit alongside, and are shaped by, the growing need to ensure that mining is not only innovative and productive, but also inclusive and sustainable — with diverse teams, equitable opportunities, and strong leadership cultures that foster continuous learning and development. So, how can the industry respond? What does it take to develop a workforce that’s ready for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow?

Mining the future | Sustainability and circularity beyond ESG

This episode goes beyond traditional ESG considerations to explore the evolving field of the circular economy and sustainability in mining. From recycling technologies to waste management solutions, mining companies are adopting circular economy principles to minimise environmental footprints and drive long-term sustainability. The speakers explore innovative ways to reduce waste, maximise resource efficiency, and create value from mining by-products.
