The August issue of MINE Australia explores the rare earth element (REE) production landscape.
Australia is emerging as a significant global player in rare earth mining and processing, but with China continuing to dominate the market, we ask what more needs to be done to bolster REE production across Australia and if the country can compete globally.
Go deeper with GlobalData
Amid the recent border conflict with Myanmar and a trade war with the US, we also examine how Beijing’s heavy rare earth restrictions are having a global impact.
In commodities, we speak to Australian start-up RapidGraphite about the potential to turn biomass feedstock into high-purity graphite. Plus, GlobalData shares its projections for lead production, which surged by more than 10% in Australia last year.
For our series on women in mining, we profile Patience Mpofu, CEO of Australia-based Insight Mining Experts, discussing her mission to promote sustainability and gender parity within the mining industry.
We also look at adoption of automation across Australia’s surface mining equipment fleet as well as the challenges of adopting battery-electric mining fleets.

As Australia faces a critical inflection point for its largest export, iron ore, we look at whether miners can adapt to support China’s pursuit of green steel.
We also explore how Western Australia, which accounts for close to half of Australia’s mining workforce, is preparing to meet demand for skilled workers. Plus, a look at the trends shaping maintenance in the mining industry.
