• Descycle is aiming to change the way the world processes and recycles metals, hoping to replace pollutive, high energy expensive processes.
• Descycle's unique form of chemistry involves using metals which behave differently than in any other processing system in use today.
• In the world's attempts to achieve net zero, we need to electrify economies, which requires a vast quantity of metals.
• DES is a new class of chemistry made of non-toxic biodegradable, mass produced inputs. They are non-water based mixtures of salts and organic compounds.

BEST MOMENTS

In this episode we chat to Russell Fryer, CEO of Critical Metals, who were formed to identify and acquire brownfield mining opportunities in the strategic metals sector as defined by the United States and European Union. Their focus is on near-term production opportunities, prioritising cash flow generation over exploration upside and where the Board believes opportunities have been overlooked and under-analysed. Their primary asset is the Mol-ulu Project in the DRC’s Katangan Copperbelt,

Russell’s career has been in the mining investment and equity space working for some of the major global financial institutions and shares the story of Critical Metals and their new project in the DRC that has recently gone into production.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• In 1997, Russell got a glimpse of what the global world of mining looked like due to shifts in the South African market, allowing him a set of rare insights and providing a wealth of experience and wisdom.
• In 2010, the world entered an economic world war, beginning with China shutting off the rare earth supply to Japan.
• Dividends are beginning to pay off in terms of contracts and exploration. Projects begun years before are now attracting investors and interest.

He has a passion and desire to promote the industry and the podcast aims to offer the mining community an insight into people’s experiences and careers covering any mining discipline, giving the listeners helpful advice and guidance on industry topics.

In this episode we have a returning guest who appeared back in October 2020 (episode 101) so please go back and have a listen to that podcast episode. Stephen Stewart, who is chairman of the Ore Group, a Canadian-based natural resource discovery and development organisation who pair people, projects, and capital to create wealth for their shareholders and communities.

Stephen has directorships with a number of TSX listed companies including Baselode Energy, Orefinders and QC Copper and Gold. He is also the founder and Chairman of the Young Mining Professionals Scholarship Fund, the largest mining-focused charitable organisation and fund, supporting mining engineering and geology education in Canada. Stephen talks about the Ore Group and associated companies plus the important of the Canadian supply chain and why his favourite commodity is gold.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Baseload made a uranium discovery in 2021, and the drills are about to get going in 2023. The year ahead looks to be productive and interesting.
• The market is currently very tough and it's hard to gain traction. You have to be producing things that capture people's imagination.
• Gold is the great commodity that seems to act as the bell-weather for the sector. It is insurance, and has been under appreciated. One day it will go up and up, and that's because when uncertainty strikes, gold is the mainstay of the global economy.

BEST MOMENTS

'That's who we are and that's what we focus on'

'We know so much about this asset - it ticks all the boxes'

'You have to get people excited'

He has a passion and desire to promote the industry and the podcast aims to offer the mining community an insight into people’s experiences and careers covering any mining discipline, giving the listeners helpful advice and guidance on industry topics.

In this episode we chat to Tim Strong, CEO of Golden Rim Resources, an ASX listed gold exploration company who are developing significant value by spearheading the next West African gold rush in its exciting flagship Kada Gold project in Guinea.

Tim is a Cambourne School of Mines geology graduate who has worked and lived in many countries around the world but most of his work has been in Africa working with both junior and major mining companies. Leading Golden Rim Resources, he gives us an overview of the company and the projects they are developing. We also talk about age bias within the mining industry and the up-skilling of local African geologists which need to be improved.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Many are drawn not just to the geological side of mining, but also to the business side of things. That's the beauty of a career in mining. You can come from any background or have any type of passion, and there will be a place in mining for you.
• There's a huge disconnect between academia and the student body, especially in geology. There seems to be a negative connotation towards mining, which can be seen as dirty and destructive. This image needs to change.
• Golden Rim resources is one of the legacy operators in West Africa and still operates in Burkina Faso. Guinea is now the flagship project.
• Qualifications are all very well, and can prove useful in certain situations, but the lack of them is never a barrier to growth and development in the mining space.

BEST MOMENTS

'I built my experience and cut my teeth in the field'

'We need to start talking to a lot of geology teachers'

'A lot of retailers don't see the bigger picture'

'I am always learning'

He gives up an update on Celsius Resources with their potential world-class copper-gold assets they have in the Philippines as well as giving us an update on the Philippine mining industry.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Dealing with indigenous communities can be challenging, but also very rewarding. Experience in this field gives you a definite benefit in terms of strategy.
• Running the day-to-day operations can be extremely challenging, and requires devotion to the job. You have to make sacrifices and compromise, but the results speak for themselves.
• The investment climate was very quiet during the pandemic, but things are picking up now, substantially. The Philippine government suffered economic impact and now see mining as a way of bouncing back, financially.

BEST MOMENTS

'A lot of it was practical experience'
