Oxford researchers study Montserrat's dormant volcano to extract critical metals for batteries and electric cars, while generating geothermal energy.

Oxford University researchers investigate Montserrat's dormant volcano to extract critical metals for batteries and electric cars while generating power from its heat. Their goal is to develop a geothermal energy blueprint using volcanic emissions and geofluids for sustainable, renewable energy sources, potentially applying this globally and providing an eco-friendly alternative to conventional mining methods.
