CEEC informs and equips miners with tools and options to improve and to accelerate technology uptake. Focusing on smart comminution and complementary technologies, this supports improvement in energy efficiency and productivity in mineral production.
CRC ORE is a genuine collaboration of forward-thinking miners, METS (mining equipment, technology and service providers) and researchers. Recognising much more could be achieved by working together on breakthrough technologies for the good of the industry, these players came together with a clear aim to quickly change the approach to innovation and implementation on site.

CRC ORE was established and funded under the Australian Government’s Cooperative Research Centres Program together with CRC ORE’s Mining Participants, METS Participants and Research Participants.
Formed in 2010, CRC ORE’s staff and participants brought deep knowledge to identify technologies to radically transform industry to be more productive, more profitable and more sustainable. Research projects are commissioned to fill the gaps where technology is missing or can be improved or integrated.
A raft of technologies are already well advanced in the CRC ORE portfolio. This includes the CRC ORE GradeEngineering™ coarse separation solution to improve gangue rejection much earlier in the mining process, and the Integrated Extraction Simulator (IES), which is used to predict and optimise variables across the whole-of-mine system.
CRC ORE is a key early supporter of CEEC and played an integral role in the emergence of the Energy Curves benchmarking concept. CEEC partnered with leading global mining experts including researchers at the University of Queensland’s Julius Kruttschnitt Mineral Research Centre to develop the concept to a trusted, practical tool for benchmarking of energy in crushing and grinding. The Energy Curves now have strong global mining industry participation, made possible by the exceptional support of CEEC’s visionary sponsors, volunteers dedicating time to the initiative, and leading researchers.
CEEC thanks CRC ORE, who now joins a visionary group of existing sponsors to help CEEC continue its work to promote informed discussion and tools for energy efficient mineral production.
CRC ORE’s General Manager Stakeholder Engagement, Clytie Dangar stated
“CRC ORE’s successes to date are testament to the value of active collaboration to solve complex industry issues. Our new partnership with CEEC provides another excellent opportunity for value-adding cooperation”.
““CRC ORE is catalysing breakthrough technologies and collaborations with potential to radically improve the productivity, energy and water signatures of our mining operationsto give the minerals sector a real step change in profitability and sustainability”.
CEEC’s CEO Alison Keogh said
“CEEC welcomes CRC ORE on board as a CEEC sponsor. CRC ORE joins CEEC’s existing visionary global sponsors from the mining and METS sectors, who are actively helping support efficient mineral production and innovation breakthroughs.”
“Sponsorship is vital for CEEC to provide its public good, free information on technology advances and operational case studies, to deliver global workshops, and to fund free tools to equip mining and METS companies to target energy-efficient improvements.”
“CRC ORE’s sponsorship of CEEC enhances collaboration and will help increase awareness of emerging technologies across the global mining sector. CEEC is proud to help inform and equip mining and METS companies with options and tools to benchmark and track productivity and energy efficiency improvements in design and operations.”
