Feasibility study of heavy metal mining from subsurface reservoirs for renewable energy storage
Heavy metal demand is expected to increase as more of the world turns to electric vehicles and renewable energy storage systems. However, current supply of heavy metals is not sufficient to meet energy transition targets over the next decade due to limited available resources. Read more
Improved understanding of the Vaiont landslide based on refined modelling using updated geological information
The Vaiont landslide occurred in 1963 in northern Italy and has perplexed researchers ever since. Recently, however, new geological information and interpretations have led to an entirely new framework for understanding the event. Read more
