Technology leader ABB has joined the European Association of Mining Industries (Euromines), the recognized representative of the European metals and minerals mining industry. Its main objectives are to promote responsible industry practices and engage with EU institutions on mining-related policy matters. Euromines also promotes the benefit and value of both the products and the industry to society, which are critical to boosting European competitiveness.
ABB business leaders will contribute to the association’s efforts to improve responsible mining in Europe and provide examples of how innovative technologies for the processing of raw materials have been developed by ABB or in collaboration with customers.
“Raw materials are essential for industry and critical to Europe’s climate goals and strategic autonomy. We are pleased to join Euromines and are looking forward to contributing with best practice examples of technologies that drive increasingly sustainable mining activity in Europe and around the world. ABB automation, electrification and digital technologies enable a more sustainable and research-efficient future; we are already helping and collaborating with customers to decarbonize and reduce energy consumption across the mining industry and across all processes from pit to port.” said Joachim Braun, Division President, ABB Process Industries.
