About the mine & energy picks

Mine and energy points are editorial picks, not a census: mines come from operator websites and public reporting (e.g. disclosures by Riot Platforms, Core Scientific, Hut 8, Bitfarms, Marathon), and energy points are public power-station landmarks tied to mining (hydro, geothermal, flared gas). Policy stances and grades are this site's editorial judgement (as of October 2025); please credit them when citing.
