The Mineral Network. From extraction to regeneration
RC585 - NOME THE MINERAL NETWORK FROM EXTRACTION TO REGENERATION
The Mineral Network reimagines mining in Nome as a catalyst for historical and ecological restoration, circular economy, and community resilience.
Rare earth extraction becomes a visible, integrated part of public life, supporting research, jobs, and biodiversity. Infrastructure connects industry, people, and ecosystems across Ulefoss and Lunde, blending high-tech innovation with landscape design. Waste is transformed into resources and new habitats. The mine is designed for adaptability, growing and shrinking over time, and eventually giving way to nature and new uses. Nome becomes a model for a regenerative, future-proof industry.
