Precious & critical metals
Examine metal supply chains from production and industrial use through separation, recovery and recycling.
Questions that shape
the work.
Start with the decision you need to make. We can shape consulting or education around the technology, commercial context and evidence required.
01
Where are the industrial dependencies and supply-chain exposures?
02
How do recovery routes affect product quality and commercial viability?
03
How can precious-metal use and recovery be evaluated together?
How we frame an assessment
Bring the evidence
into one view.
A possible review scope is shown below. The work and deliverable are agreed around the specific project and decision.
| Assessment area | Evidence to examine | Decision support |
|---|---|---|
| Supply-chain basis | Metal production routes, industrial users, capacity, trade and dependencies. | A mapped view of the technology and commercial system. |
| Recovery pathway | Feedstock composition, separation sequence, recoveries and product quality requirements. | A review with defined inputs, products and process boundaries. |
| Value in use | Industrial application, atom efficiency, metal inventory and recovery economics. | A connection between technology choices and the metal value chain. |
