ForMovFluid

🚀 We have lift-off!
Last week we had our very first Summer School. Our 18 Doctoral Candidates got together for the first time for a week full of training, discussion and—we're not gonna lie—some beers at the local pub.

Read all about it on our blog: formovfluid.eu/we-got-toget...

🇮🇪 We're kick-starting our first ever Summer School in Allihies, Ireland! And we're blessed with an amazing weather for our fieldwork day

If you see anyone from our team, this is the proper way of saying hello 👇

Rock pick for scale. Soft rock deformation structures.

Good morning. We are interviewing this week to some of the fantastic candidates that applied to @formovfluid.bsky.social

And to celebrate I give you a rock pic with a rock pick and fantastic sedimentary structures there with soft deformation

🙏Thank you for this incredible response!

ForMovFluid has received 342 expressions of interest to join our Doctoral Network

A total of 245 candidates from 56 different countries took part in this highly competitive selection process!

Critical Raw Materials Act The Critical Raw Materials Act (CRM Act) will ensure EU access to a secure and sustainable supply of critical raw material, enabling Europe to meet its 2030 climate and digital objectives.

ForMovFluid aligns with the EU’s new #CriticalRawMaterialsAct, which ambitiously aims to have 10% of critical raw materials consumption extracted within the EU’s own borders. 👉

Lithium is considered a critical raw material. Image: Wikimedia Commons

The EU currently relies heavily on ‘single supply’ countries for certain critical raw materials, such as #magnesium (China, 97%), #lithium (Chile, 97%), #iridium (South Africa, 93%) and #niobium (Brazil, 92%), making supply chains extremely vulnerable. ⛓️

#6

List of the 34 materials considered critical by the European Commission. In yellow are the so-called 17 strategic raw materials, whose supply is expected to grow exponentially in the coming years and which are complex to produce and extract. They therefore face a higher risk of supply problems. Image: European Commission

And what about these #criticalrawmaterials (CRMs)?

Basically, they are a set of 34 chemical elements and mineral resources vital to the European economy. CRMs are scarce, but essential for certain strategic sectors, such as net-zero, electronics and aerospace.
