Readying the world's critical minerals

The demand for base and critical?minerals for the energy transition—and our modern lives—is set to outpace currently available supply.

In Australia, we need to find ways to scale-up critical minerals processing so we can meet increasing demand as a global supplier. According to Geoscience Australia, in 2022, Australia was the world’s number one lithium producer (52%).

Stantec can support the responsible extraction and?development of all types of critical minerals including copper, lithium, high purity alumina, nickel,?vanadium, and rare earth elements (REEs).

We move mining projects through the piloting, and commercial study phases to detailed engineering, design, and construction. If you’re looking to scale your production to meet demand, we can support your transition from the laboratory to a demonstration plant to a commercial-scale processing plant.

Readying the world's critical minerals is a global challenge—let us assist you to meet these market needs.

We help you optimise systems for improved efficiency and mineral recovery
