  • Platinum Group Metals Patent Analysis and Mapping a REVIEW of PATENTING TRENDS and IDENTIFICATION of EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES
    DOI: 10.1595/147106708X362735 Platinum Group Metals Patent Analysis and Mapping A REVIEW OF PATENTING TRENDS AND IDENTIFICATION OF EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES By Richard Seymour Johnson Matthey Technology Centre, Blounts Court, Sonning Common, Reading RG4 9NH, U.K.; E-mail: [email protected] The patent literature contains a wealth of detailed information about existing and new uses for the platinum group metals (pgms). While excellent searching tools have existed for many years for identifying patents relating to specific topics, it is only relatively recently that it has been feasible to map the complete archive of patent literature to identify important trends relating to potential new applications. This paper summarises the results of such an exercise for the pgms carried out in early 2008 and shows that one such ‘hot spot’ relates to organic light emitting diodes (OLEDs). Previous articles in this Journal have described Matthey Technology Centre is Aureka® (a product the importance of patents as a key source of techni- available from Thomson Reuters) (3), which cal and commercial intelligence (1, 2).

  • INTERVIEW: Swiss Fund CDMR Argues Investment Case for Minor Metals
    INTERVIEW: Swiss fund CDMR argues investment case for minor metals LONDON (Metal-Pages) 15-Apr-15. While investment funds speculating in base metals are a fairly routine occurrence, those same funds rarely get involved with minor metals or rare earths. If they do, they tend to hold an equity stake in the mining companies rather than in the actual metal. Over the years some smaller funds and hedge funds have made forays into minor metals but those kind of speculative investors are still few and far between. One of them is the Swiss firm Compagnie des Métaux Rares. It operates a Luxembourg-based fund with a stake in physical minor metals, holding 12 metals in warehouses in Rotterdam. CDMR was set up by Vincent Donnen and Gregoire Teze, two former fund analysts with extensive experience of working in Asia, who took it off the ground with $1mn of their own money and another $4mn raised from their network. Now they are looking to attract a total of $20mn to $25mn into the fund which has been operational since last April. The attraction of minor metals, explains Donnen, stems from the fact that the majority of them are currently undervalued and yet demand from the industries which used them such as electronics, car manufacturing or aircraft building is on the rise. At the same time most of these metals are not produced on their own but rather as a by-product of base and precious metals such as copper, nickel or platinum. Aircraft manufacture, electronics and clean energy will drive minor metal demand Some of Donnen’s top choices include rhenium, a popular metal in aircraft building, rhodium and ruthenium, both used in catalytic converters in cars, tellurium and several metals used in electronics.

  • Minor and Trace Metals in Slurry Slime in Mined-Out Ponds in the Kinta Valley, Perak
    Geological Society of Malaysia Annual Geological Conference 2001 June 2-3 2001, Pangkor Island, Perak Darul Ridzuan, Malaysia Minor and trace metals in slurry slime in mined-out ponds in the Kinta Valley, Perak CHOW WENG SUM Minerals and Geoscience Department Malaysia 201h Floor, Tabung Haji Building, Jalan Tun Razak, P.O.Box 11110, 50736 Kuala Lumpur Abstract: The Kinta Valley was renowned as the largest tin field in the world and up to 1989, there were 70,158 hectares of land under mining leases. Thereafter, the tin mining industry took a down-tum due to falling tin metal prices and what is left of the industry is now mined-out land with abundant abandoned ponds. Stretching from Pengkalan near lpoh to Kampar in the south over a distance of 42km, there is a total of 1,194 mined-out ponds. About 66.7% of these ponds have slurry slime at the pond bottoms, with thickness varying from O.lm to 7.0m. Many of these abandoned ponds are used for the rearing of fish and ducks, or are cultivated with lotus plants. Slime is occasionally admixed with tailing sand for agricultural purposes. As such, should the slime be contaminated with heavy metals the food chain will be affected. Slime from eight ponds in the Kinta Valley was tested for minor and trace metals. Most of the slime contained higher concentrations of uranium and other trace heavy metals such asSn, Hg, Sb, 8i and Cd as compared to the norm in the earth's crust or stream sediments. Amongst the eight test ponds, slime from Pond 881 contained relatively higher concentrations of minor, radioactive and trace metals.

Low-grade primary gallium was recovered globally as a gallium production was 5% from 2007 through 2017. World byproduct of processing bauxite and zinc ores. No domestic high-grade secondary refined gallium production increased at a low-grade primary gallium was recovered in 2017. Imports CAGR of 7%. World gallium consumption, which increased at of gallium metal and gallium arsenide (GaAs) wafers plus a CAGR of 6% from 2007 through 2017, was estimated to have domestically refined and recycled gallium continued to account been 355 t in 2017. for all U.S. gallium consumption (metal and gallium in GaAs). Metal imports were 93% higher than those in 2016 (table 1). Production The leading sources of imported gallium metal were, in No domestic production of low-grade primary gallium was descending order, China (including Hong Kong), the United reported in 2017. Neo Performance Materials Inc. (Canada) Kingdom, France, Ukraine, Russia, and the Republic of Korea recovered gallium from new scrap materials, predominantly (table 4). A significant portion of imports was thought to be those generated during the production of GaAs ingots and low-grade gallium that was refined in the United States and wafers. Neo’s facility in Blanding, UT, had the capability to shipped to other countries. Data on refined gallium exports, produce about 50 metric tons per year of high-grade gallium. however, were not available.

  • DIGITAL ECONOMY GROWTH and MINERAL RESOURCES Implications for Developing Countries
    DIGITAL ECONOMY GROWTH AND MINERAL RESOURCES Implications for Developing Countries No16 UNCTAD, DIVISION ON TECHNOLOGY AND LOGISTICS SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY AND ICT BRANCH ICT POLICY SECTION TECHNICAL NOTE NO16 UNEDITED TN/UNCTAD/ICT4D/16 DECEMBER 2020 Digital economy growth and mineral resources: 1 implications for developing countries Abstract: This technical note examines the link between growing digitalization of the world economy and the demand for various elements. It feeds into the overall research work of the UNCTAD E- commerce and Digital Economy (ECDE) work programme. The study focuses on the following issues in view of the growing use of digital technologies: What metals/minerals will be more demanded as a result?; What changes in demand can be expected compared with today's situation?; Which mineral-rich developing countries are likely to be most affected by the growth in demand of different metals and minerals?; Which are the main actors (including possibly new actors such as digital companies) involved in the extraction, smelting and refining of these minerals and metals?; and How recyclable will these "new" metals be and to what extent may they be adding to the problem of "e-waste"? Based primarily on desk top research, complemented by a few interviews with representatives from industry and academia, the study deals primarily with the functional parts of computers and other devices, which are at the core of the digital economy. Demands for raw materials from the structural parts of the devices and the networks necessary as well as their energy supply and the consequences of the transition to a fossil free world are not covered.
