EXCEED’s multi-metal/mineral, zero-waste mining-and-refining approach adopts a mineral-centric, integrated methodology via the application of a first-of-its-kind predictive and forensic geometallurgy, supported by enhanced in-line characterisation tools and the development of digital twins. Using four premier European pegmatite and RMG case studies, EXCEED develops, upscales & demonstrates cost-effective, sustainable and responsible extraction routes for recovering the CRMs and industrial minerals as by-products from Li-bearing hard-rock ores. A suite of CRMs will be extracted and refined, while diverse industrial minerals will be refined and valorised in low-carbon building materials.
This documentary investigates the challenges faced by Europe as it attempts to set up its own, fully integrated, mine-to-EV value chain.
The film acts as a wake-up call to avoid that Europe’s decarbonisation strategy leads to a nightmarish de-industrialisation. Instead, the documentary shows that Europe’s transition to climate neutrality can go hand in hand with a cleantech-based re-industrialisation. Made-in-Europe.
In this interview, Dr. Priya Perumal from the University of Oulu shares how her team is transforming lithium mine tailings into valuable construction materials. She
On 17 November, Europe’s Lithium Paradox held its final avant-première at Cinema Aventure (Brussels) — A full house! On 17 November "Europe's Lithium Paradox” had
Film’s presenter calls for breaking free from the lithium trenches and proposes a novel “public engagement” approach where civil society and the metals industry jointly develop a European Responsible Mining v2.0 paradigm to avoid falling further behind in the global lithium & battery race.
EXCEED presents the idea of “characterization and categorization” of industrial byproducts for use in construction in the form of a dedicated paper focused on the utilization
After receiving the Berlin Kiez Film Festival award we are delighted to share the news that the MY NAME IS CLIMATE Film Festival 2025″ in
EXCEED’s documentary, Europe’s Lithium Paradox offers a compelling exploration of lithium’s crucial role in Europe’s mission to become the world’s first climate-neutral continent. Simultaneously, the documentary seeks
