Ivanhoe Newswire — According to the Environmental Defense Fund, air pollution is now the biggest environmental risk for early death. So just how does this hazard impact your health? Children, the elderly, minorities, and low-income communities are most vulnerable to environmental health effects.
A recent study found children who are exposed to air pollution are more likely to contract community-acquired pneumonia and be hospitalized for longer. Other research has shown environmental health effects may increase the risk of lung cancer, asthma, and emphysema.

A venture company established by Mr. At the time, it was the largest Canadian mining IPO in more than two years.
Founded in as Indochina Goldfields — a name that reflected its initial mining interests in the Asia Pacific region — it was the first to adopt the more universal Ivanhoe Mines identity in Friedland served variously as Executive Chairman and Chairman for 17 years, until May In , Ivanhoe Mines began exploration in Mongolia that led to a decade of discoveries that revealed a Construction of the Oyu Tolgoi mining complex began in and production started in The epic Oyu Tolgoi Mine produced a reported , tonnes of copper, 1.
Initial production from the new, underground mine is expected in , further advancing Oyu Tolgoi on its projected course to become the world's third-largest copper mine.
International mining giant Rio Tinto acquired control of the original Ivanhoe Mines in and, as required under an agreement with Mr. Friedland, surrendered the Ivanhoe identity and renamed the company Turquoise Hill Resources — completing another chapter in the ongoing Ivanhoe Mines story.
Friedland is Chairman and co-founder of I-Pulse , a private company that is commercializing proprietary, controlled-energy technology aiming to achieve disruptive outcomes across numerous industries. The technology repeatedly compresses and releases pulses of electrical energy in billionths of a second. The extremely-high-powered discharges can generate precise shockwaves directed to 1 shape and assemble metals to previously unachievable degrees of precision; 2 generate electrical fields that reveal chargeable or resistive mineral deposits, or water and oil reservoirs, at depths beyond the reach of conventional survey technologies; 3 crush rock containing minerals or gemstones with significantly reduced energy requirements; and 4 enhance oil-well production and increase reserves.
Another of Mr. HPX is applying proprietary, geophysical technologies to rapidly evaluate underground geological targets and accelerate exploration programs targeting mineral and water resources. HPX's Typhoon data acquisition system is a world-leading, accurate and powerful, induced polarization and electromagnetic geophysical survey technology, whose applications may be supplemented with advanced data processing by Computational Geosciences , an HPX subsidiary.
One unit is part of an award-winning demonstration project, operated by State Grid Corporation of China, which is producing and storing energy generated from renewable wind and solar sources. Friedland is a co-founder and a director of privately held Kietta , a French company established by offshore oil-exploration specialists and technology entrepreneurs. Kietta has designed and now operates a lower-cost system that acquires superior-quality, marine seismic exploration data using a patented cable technology controlled by unmanned, autonomous surface vessels.
Friedland is a co-founder and principal investor in U. Friedland was appointed board Co-Chairman of Clean TeQ , an Australia-listed company providing innovative and sustainable solutions for metals recovery and water treatment. Clean TeQ is developing the Sunrise Project in the State of New South Wales, a nickel laterite resource comprising one of the world's largest and highest-grade sources of scandium and cobalt. Nickel and cobalt sulphate from Sunrise will be supplied to the lithium-ion battery market; scandium oxide will be used to produce lighter and stronger aluminum alloys for aerospace and automotive markets.
Friedland chaired the Board of Directors of Potash One from to while it was planning the development of a new mine in Saskatchewan, Canada. Before founding the original Ivanhoe Mines in , Mr. Friedland was a co-founding principal investor in the establishment in Canada of Diamond Fields Resources in late and played a prominent role in the company's public launch.
