Mintek

South Africa's Critical Minerals and Metals Strategy must become a practical roadmap for beneficiation and industrialization, according to Mintek's Dr. Lawrence Bbosa. This strategy could position South Africa as a key processor of critical minerals rather than just a raw material exporter.

South Africa's Mintek is leading research to extract rare earth elements from discard coal and coal fly ash. This innovative approach could unlock new REE supplies from previously discarded mining waste materials.
