M A R E CSustainable solutions for efficient mining.
Mining - the challengeProviding access to all materials that are not grown, mining embodies a fundamental base to human society and econo-my. Responding to ever growing human development and progress, the mining sector faces the challenge to satisfy the demand for raw materials and energy as well as to keep the impacts of mining in check.
The MAREC team responds to challenges related to sustai-nable mining through the entire life cycle:• area selection and analysis• mining strategy• environmental and social impact• area restoration
The MAREC business caseThe MAREC consortium believes the right solution is found by asking the right question. Rooted in fundamental know-ledge on mining and the environment, the MAREC approach starts by acknowledging that every problem is unique through its own context and circumstances. Through system analysis, the key issues are identified, isolated and targeted using fast innovative procedures. Solving technological and environ-mental bottlenecks, the MAREC approach will turn your busi-ness case beneficial for all parties involved.
