I have had the privilege of working with John on this concept for the past 18 months. This video (the first in a series we are producing) is very close to the initial pitch that John gave me to join what is nowFuture Element.

At the time, I was with Boston Consulting Group and thinking deeply about closure and the dissonance between how miners and non-miner stakeholders (eg. Communities & TOs) see the industry’s commitment to the environment.

This video introduces the concept of ‘Economic Rehabilitation’ which was pioneered at New Century Resources and challenges the industry to think about a future that says no more tailings dams (I expect that in 15 years, new mines won’t be able to build these structures anyway).

Video worth watching of John Carr Managing Director and CEO of Future Element.
