Hello and welcome to the final edition of the Institute for Mineral and Energy Resources e-newsletter for 2013.
It has been a challenging year within the mining and energy resources sector. Although we've made considerable progress, we still face major efficiency and sustainability challenges that can only be solved with innovative new technology.
IMER continued to bring industry, government and academia together to tackle a wide range of issues in 2013, including accessing unconventional energy resources, increasing the efficiency of renewable technologies and developing novel approaches to minerals exploration, processing and site rehabilitation. IMER's success in obtaining Australian Research Council funding and our team's award-winning research see us well placed to continue advancing these areas in 2014, albeit while navigating a changing political landscape.
We look forward to continuing our successful local, national and international collaborations in 2014.
