A truck full of ore winding along a steep mine track. Notes from a piece of music composed 300 years ago, yet immediately catching our attention. This is how the Eramet Group’s film begins, a journey across continents and metals, meeting men and women united by the same ambition: to become a benchmark in the responsible transformation of the Earth’s mineral resources, for the well-being of all.
With this film, Eramet shares three convictions:
- The metals we produce are useful everywhere. From the buildings in our cities to the pigments in our paintings, from the wind turbines on our coasts to the batteries in our electric vehicles, they are with us in every aspect of our daily lives.
- These metals – nickel, manganese, lithium and titanium – are what our teams value and transform on five continents. Explorers, geologists, engineers, researchers, machine operators, metallurgists, environmental specialists, datascientists: the Group’s 10,000 employees in 15 countries give life to these materials that are both ancestral and vital to accompanying mankind into the new era of metals. This film is a tribute to them.
- Valuing these metals is both a privilege and a responsibility. By illustrating the support given to host communities close to our sites, the rehabilitation of mining sites and the actions taken to protect biodiversity, this film shows the responsible mining that is our path to sustainable production.
Its conclusion sums up our ambitions and our responsibility: “The metals we produce are the metals the world needs”.
