From Waste to Worth
Coreo has identified high-priority material streams across the Bowen Basin mining sector and appropriate circular economy opportunities that could be implemented in a common-user facility to target these material streams while generating local value for key materials that are being wasted today.
Each tonne recovered means one less extracted, saving emissions & preserving resources.
Up to ~$4.7 billion in 10 year net-present value could be realised.
A Circular Economy is a new economic model, promising to deliver broad scale impact reduction while delivering regenerative value.
It is based in three, globally accepted principles:
1. Eliminate waste and pollution (considers waste a design flaw)
2. Circulate products and resources at their highest value, for longer
3. Regenerate natural and social systems
Circularity empowers a crucial system's perspective, revealing where the mining sector can unlock its potential for total value creation (environmental, social, and economic).
