BHP and MIT spin-out SiTration plan two pilot programmes at BHP’s Copper Cities legacy site in Arizona’s Globe-Miami district to recover copper from mining-impacted water. A one-month small-scale trial will be followed later this year by a larger deployment targeting up to two tonnes of copper cathodes over two months. SiTration says the tests use no chemicals, add no new waste products and consume below 3–4 kWh/kg for recovery.

ABOUT

What is Fimmer?

Most feeds treat all company headlines the same. An executive interview, an office closure, stock analysis, and a data breach can sit side by side with no sense of scale. Fimmer ranks coverage by what matters, so important events stand out and signals are prioritised over noise. We cluster related company news and score each story using a range of metrics, so you see the most crucial stories first.

SCORING

What do the scores mean?

Significance (0–10) measures the scale of the real-world impact. Sentiment and ESG (−10 to +10) indicate the tone of the coverage and whether the change relates to environmental, social, or governance factors. Together, these scores help distinguish meaningful developments from routine company news. More information about our scoring methodology can be found on our About page.
