International LCA Workshop : Breakout Session 2 (Perth time) by Habib, Nasib Al https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l Methodological development for mineral resources en-us 2025-10-08 21:07:51 UTC 2025-10-10 20:30:22 UTC hello@padlet.com How can LCA methods better capture near-mine impacts (e.g., water use, land use, biodiversity) in sensitive regions? Should we focus on harmonizing existing practices or developing new impact assessment methods/characterization factors? nhnh5 https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286101 2025-10-08 21:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286101 What approaches to allocation (e.g., economic, mass-based, system expansion) are most appropriate for multi-output mining operations, and how can consistency be ensured across studies? Should we be harmonizing or developing new standards? nhnh5 https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286103 2025-10-08 21:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286103 What approaches to allocation (e.g., economic, mass-based, system expansion) are most appropriate for multi-output mining operations, and how can consistency be ensured across studies?

Should we be harmonizing practice or developing new standards? nhnh5 https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286108 2025-10-08 21:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286108 What is the appropriate balance between comprehensiveness and robustness in impact assessment? Should LCA of mineral raw materials cover a wide range of impact categories including toxicity, non-toxicity, and resource use (water, land, minerals) or should it focus on a smaller number of well-established and reliable categories to reduce uncertainty? nhnh5 https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286109 2025-10-08 21:07:51 UTC https://padlet.com/cmworkshop/zv2ab7dyu8cjt08l/wish/3624286109 How can LCA methods better capture near-mine impacts (e.g., water use, land use, biodiversity) in sensitive regions?
