Urgent Challenges for access to CRMs & mine water management

Swedish Metals & Minerals invites you to join this seminar and workshop where several ongoing projects will present an "omvärldsanalys":
analysis of the current state-of-the-art and ongoing research in an international context for the urgent challenges addressed by their specific project.

The goals of the workshop are to disseminate the analyses, to provide a forum for networking for industry and researchers, and to identify Sweden's position and research needs that can guide Swedish Metals & Minerals as to how to continue to address these challenges in future actions.
