Mining the Gap | Securing Resources for the High-Tech Economy

This episode discusses the crucial role of mining in supporting high-growth industries such as defence, electric vehicles (EVs), and artificial intelligence (AI). The speakers examine the  essential mineral requirements for these industries and the supply chain vulnerabilities and challenges associated with meeting surging global demand. Speakers include: • Amanda van Dyke | Founder | Critical Minerals Hub • Rasmus Tammia | Programme Manager - AI in Mining | Boliden • Joséphine Quioc | Senior Sustainability Consultant - TDi Sustainability (Host) This episode is part of the TDi Sustainability (https://www.tdi-sustainability.com/) special series of podcasts produced in advance of the 2025 Resourcing Tomorrow event that will take place in London between 2-4 December.
