A life cycle assessment report was recently published on the Twin Metals Minnesota project in comparison to global averages for copper and nickel concentrate production. The report confirms that Twin Metals will be a low-carbon producer of the critical minerals needed in the fight against climate change, the company said in a news release.
The analysis, conducted by Minviro ltd, found that the carbon impact of Twin Metals’ copper and nickel concentrates will be 70 and 80 percent lower than the global average respectively, due in large part to the company’s plans to use renewable energy, incorporate an electric fleet and employ additional efficiency measures.
