BHP Weighs $20 Billion Copper Expansion in South Australia Around 500 kilometres north of Adelaide sits Olympic Dam, one of the world’s largest and most valuable copper deposits. It’s a long-running operation in the heart of South Australia’s outback, and a critical asset in global copper supply. Linking Olympic Dam With Oak Dam BHP’s latest studies investigate connecting Olympic Dam with Oak Dam — a high-grade copper discovery located nearby. If developed together, the two sites could form a new copper hub capable of lifting South Australia’s production for decades. A Project Facing Big Challenges Despite the scale of the opportunity, several challenges are slowing progress. Rising energy costs, limited water availability, and ongoing infrastructure constraints all add complexity to the project. Water supply in particular remains a key issue in the region, with any major expansion likely requiring new pipelines or desalination investment. Could This Be Australia’s Next Pilbara? If BHP overcomes these hurdles, South Australia could become home to a copper province on the scale of the Pilbara’s iron ore industry. With global demand for copper surging, the region’s long-term potential is significant — but turning it into Australia’s next major mining hub will depend on solving today’s bottlenecks.

Intel’s been lagging behind for years, while AMD has pulled far ahead in both consumer and professional-grade chips, it’s really not a close race anymore.

There’s this idea floating around that throwing enough cash at Intel will suddenly turn them into the next TSMC. But semiconductor manufacturing isn’t something you can ...
Intel’s been lagging behind for years, while AMD has pulled far ahead in both consumer and professional-grade chips, it’s really not a close race anymore. There’s this idea floating around that throwing enough cash at Intel will suddenly turn them into the next TSMC. But semiconductor manufacturing isn’t something you can rush, it’s a complex, slow-moving process that takes years of precision and experience. Intel could recover some ground eventually, but framing them as the savior of American chipmaking feels more like a political talking point than a practical reality.

Looks like we're going through something, but who would have thought with all these tarrifs, inflation and trade wars going on
