The global steel and mining sector is witnessing dynamic developments. Swedish steelmaker SSAB is accelerating its fossil-free steel production, expanding its HYBRIT technology with plans to become fully green by 2030. The move places SSAB at the forefront of sustainable steel innovation, aligning with Europe’s net-zero ambitions.
In Central Asia, Tajikistan has significantly increased its iron ore output, signaling a bold step towards industrial self-sufficiency. With a reported 30% rise in production, the country is now investing in downstream steel capacity to reduce reliance on imports.
Meanwhile, Nippon Steel, Japan’s largest steelmaker, announced expansion plans to meet global demand, particularly in the automotive and infrastructure sectors. This comes alongside their acquisition drive, including the recent US Steel deal aimed at deepening global reach.
In mining, BHP, the world’s leading resource company, is gradually shifting its focus from iron ore to copper and critical minerals, responding to rising demand from the energy transition and EV markets. The pivot reflects a broader trend in the global mining industry.
