Enabling You With Transformative Products
Working with customers in the mining and metals sector, we understand that technological advancement, automation, and digitalization are revolutionizing your sector, while you are faced with challenges of environmental stability, resource depletion, and responsible mining practices.
The team here at Goodfellow is here to support you with the supply of our 170,000 advanced materials and product customization services.
The Exponential Demand for Metals
As we are moving to Net Zero we are witnessing raw materials demand increase, such as cobalt and lithium for electric vehicle batteries. Metals will play a pivotal role in decarbonization efforts as the global economy shifts from fossil fuels to solar, electric, wind, hydro, thermal, and other sustainable energy sources.
With mining and metals companies demonstrating a capability to meet the demand for the World Bank's identified 17 separate minerals, by working with Goodfellow you do not need to navigate the complexities of supply chain bottlenecks, price fluctuations, extended lead times, ethical exploration, and more. Our team is happy to support you.

Understanding the Supply Chain Risks
The global population growth, coupled with increasing urbanisation and industrialization, is driving the rise in demand for raw materials.
Furthermore, many of the reserves identified for future exploration lie in developing economies where political instabilities and inadequate infrastructure, together with protectionism and growing resistance to globalization, remain. For instance, 60% of the world’s cobalt is sourced as a by-product of copper mining in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where concerns about child labour and political upheavals prevail.
Thus, the mining and metals sector will need to adapt to volatility in their supply chains.
