The Proceedings provides an interdisciplinary examination of how resource‑extraction industries can transition toward environmentally regenerative practices. The volume synthesizes emerging approaches for redesigning legacy metallurgical and mining processes while maintaining operational performance and integrating advanced sustainable technologies. Chapters address cross‑sector learning and the application of digital tools—including artificial intelligence—to improve environmental outcomes and support more effective project delivery. Additional sections analyze stakeholder‑driven collaboration models, circular‑economy strategies, and risk‑minimization frameworks that enhance long‑term sustainability. The book also explores technical innovations aimed at protecting biodiversity, advancing water‑treatment solutions, and reducing emissions across the value chain.
