<p>Metalliferous minerals play a central role in the global economy. They will continue to provide the raw materials we need for industrial processes. Significant challenges will likely emerge if the climate-driven green and low-carbon development transition of metalliferous mineral exploitation is not managed responsibly and sustainably. Green low-carbon technology is vital to promote the development of metalliferous mineral resources shifting from extensive and destructive mining to clean and energy-saving mining in future decades. Global mining scientists and engineers have conducted a lot of research in related fields such as green mining ecological mining energy-saving mining and mining solid waste recycling and have achieved a great deal of innovative progress and achievements.</p><p>This Special Issue intends to collect the latest developments in the green low-carbon mining field written by well-known researchers who have contributed to the innovation of new technologies process optimization methods or energy-saving techniques in metalliferous minerals development.</p>
