LONDON, Oct. 15, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Getech, a world-leading locator of subsurface resources, has joined a consortium of academia and industry to speed up the understanding of copper deposits required for the discovery of critical metal needed for renewable technologies.

Key Points: 
  • The consortium is taking a holistic mineral system approach to sedimentary copper discovery.
  • This requires an understanding of the combination of geological processes that are required to form and preserve sedimentary deposits, in this case copper.
  • With the looming world-wide copper deficit, sedimentary hosted copper deposits offer a promising and more sustainable alternative for meeting the increasing global demand for this energy transition critical mineral.
  • Leveraging market-leading geologic and geophysical data, advanced geoscientific techniques and state-of-the-art technology, Getech can add value to exploration for energy transition minerals like copper and lithium.

An expert explains the stranding of 97 pilot whales in WA and their mysterious 'huddling' before the tragedy

Sad scenes are unfolding in Western Australia after a pod of pilot whales became stranded on a beach late on Tuesday.

Key Points: 
  • Sad scenes are unfolding in Western Australia after a pod of pilot whales became stranded on a beach late on Tuesday.
  • The pod of long-finned pilot whales began congregating in the ocean off Cheynes Beach on Monday evening.
  • Sadly, the chances of survival for the remaining whales is very low – and time is fast running out.

Understanding pilot whales

    • There are two species of pilot whales: short-finned (which live mainly in tropical and warm-temperate regions) and long-finned (generally found in colder waters).
    • As the name suggests, the long-finned pilot whales have longer pectoral fins than their counterparts.
    • Pilot whales are, however, known to inhabit Bremer Canyon, a very deep ocean area 70 kilometres off the WA coast.

What happened at Cheynes Beach?

    • The group of whales was spotted swimming in shallow waters at Cheynes Beach late on Monday.
    • An official from the Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions called me on Tuesday morning, and asked about the strange huddling behaviour.
    • Healthy pilot whales do not form huddles, so something seemed very wrong.
    • The department’s drone footage showed the pod was forming a very tight ball, then moving into a line, then back into the ball shape.

Why did the whales beach themselves?

    • At the time, I and a colleague conducted necropsies on the pilot whales, but the findings were inconclusive.
    • But in the case of pilot whales, their social behaviour offers some clues.
    • Pilot whales are similar to elephants in that they live in tight-knit family groups.

What next?

    • Researchers are also taking biopsy samples and nasal swabs from the dead whales.
    • Experts will examine the swabs and samples, to try and understand more about this stranding event.
    • I anticipate they will look for evidence of illness such as influenza or cetacean morbillivirus, as well as stress from underwater noise.
    • I would like to be able to answer everyone’s primary question: why do pilot whales become stranded?

MELBOURNE, Australia, May 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a first for the mining industry, BHP has published a pilot case study on the application of natural capital accounting principles in the mining sector.

Key Points: 
  • MELBOURNE, Australia, May 08, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- In a first for the mining industry, BHP has published a pilot case study on the application of natural capital accounting principles in the mining sector.
  • The ‘Natural Capital Accounting for the Mining Sector: Beenup Site Pilot Case Study’ (Beenup Case Study), based on a case study at BHP’s closed and rehabilitated Beenup Mineral Sands site in southern Western Australia, is the first attempt at trialling natural capital accounting within the mining industry.
  • Natural capital accounts are a way to measure the amount, condition and value of environmental assets, helping to describe changes in ecosystems and how they could impact wellbeing and economies.
  • “We know that objectively measuring our progress and understanding the impacts of our efforts will only be possible using tools such as natural capital accounts.
