The launch meeting for the CrEAM - Critical Elements and Materials - Network will take place at the University of Birmingham on Tuesday 13th November. The network has been established to provide a forum to bring together specialists from across the entire UK supply chain in critical materials to develop strategies to mitigate supply risks of critical elements and materials.
During the three years of the network we will organise a series of workshops encompassing the entire supply chain covering exploration, extraction, materials processing, applications and recovery/recycling. The network will provide a forum to bring together specialists from across the entire UK supply chain in critical materials to create a coherent ‘UK Element Strategy’ document for UK government, including policy and funding recommendations to ensure a responsible, secure and environmentally efficient supply of critical materials vital to UK industry.
The launch meeting is free to attend but please register by emailing cream@contacts.bham.ac.uk to reserve your place.
