The Sustainable Minerals Institute (SMI) at the University of Queensland (UQ) is a research institute focused on understanding and implementing the principles of sustainable development through engagement with industry contacts from geology to mining, processing and disposal.[1] In 2022, the institute was awarded more than $1.2 million in grants to develop research into sustainable resources for the mining industry.[2] The founder, Alban Lynch, died in 2021.[3]
