Enhancing EU mining regional ecosystems to support green transition and secure mineral raw materials
supply – kick-off meeting (Évora, 21-22 September 2023)
A complex and diverse geology provides Portugal with relevant mining potential;
Mineral deposits of metallic ores, industrial minerals, and construction minerals;
Mining at Neves-Corvo and Aljustrel (copper, lead, and zinc) and Panasqueira (tungsten and tin);
other mines producing salt, feldspar, quartz, kaolin, special clays and sands; and ornamental and
industrial stones quarries;

Possible supply discontinuities;
in some cases, disruptions of longer duration.
Mitigating imbalances is challenging and
requires innovative ideas, methods and solutions
to restructure the current chains of
supply of mineral raw materials.
Continuous increase in
associated material intensity
to (r)evolution of technology in
course towards savings
digital, eco-efficient and low-C
