The global challenges of sustainability, climate change and efficiency/productivity continue. Ecoefficient minerals are needed to drive the world's energy transition and a more sustainable future. CEEC's mission is to help the mining industry improve energy, emissions and water footprint, with a focus on crushing and grinding (comminution) the most energyintensive steps in mining. This year CEEC's remit will be expanded to encompass other areas of the mining value chain and how it can support the additional critical areas for the industry such as decarbonisation and water management. Our organisation is supported by visionary leaders who are passionate about leading change mostly volunteers. We connect a worldwide network of experts and leaders, to communicate, collaborate and celebrate advances and mine site improvements, helping accelerate change.
