Energy demand for critical-minerals projects

Where the next electrical load in Australian mining is likely to appear, and how much of it can actually be evidenced today. 538 mapped sites: most sit a long way from the grid, and only a handful have ever published what they would need.

Coverage538 sites — 117 mines and 421 deposits that are not currently classified as mines
GridStraight-line distance to the nearest of 1,805 mapped substations
PowerShown only where a figure has been published; never estimated from production
HoldingsRegistered holder of the ground, Western Australia only
