Cornwall Resources Ltd will use its Duchy licence as a “physical laboratory” to develop new ideas and sustainable extraction focused on tin, tungsten, lithium and other “critical minerals”.
FUNDING
The company said it would co-lead one of the trans-disciplinary work packages within the £4.5 million Green Economies Centre based at the University of Exeter and its Camborne School of Mines.
CRL project manager Dennis Rowland played a key role in securing the financing for the ‘Critical Minerals Accelerating’ in the centre from UK Research and Innovation.
The four-year initiative will also help further the company’s understanding of the geology and prospectivity of its Tamar Valley licence area.
