  • The Vision For The Future - with Julian Treger

    In this episode we chat to Julian Treger, CEO of Anglo Pacific who are a global natural resources royalty company listed on both the London Stock Exchange and the Toronto Stock Exchange and aiming to become a leading natural resources company through investing in high-quality projects in preferred jurisdictions with trusted counterparties and underpinned by strong ESG principles.

    With a diverse portfolio of assets in well established mining jurisdictions and a strong balance sheet to fund new acquisitions, it has a good base from which to grow. We discuss the recent acquisition of the Voisey Bay cobalt stream transaction and how it positions the company going forward.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • We learn from those who have walked the path before us. There are always generations that go before, that can hand down the lessons of the past in order to better secure a future.
    • The best people to surround one's self with are those who can provide solutions in a positive way. It's not enough to simply point out challenges and issues.
    • The mining sector is shifting from being a 19th century, industrial stereotype, to an integral part of cleanliness and responsibility.
    • When the aerospace sector recovers from the impact of COVID, there will be a sharp need for more in the cobalt space, in which Anglo Pacific is well positioned.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'I had some beginner's luck'

    'That quarter of a million dollar investment has led to a half-billion dollar royalty'

    'I want to know how things can be done, not why they can't be done'

    'We want to be part of the story of mining in the 21st century'

  • An Investing And Speculating Masterclass- with Rick Rule

    In this episode we chat to the legendary investor and speculator Rick Rule who has a 45 year career track record in the commodities and resources space, so knows a thing or two about investments and commodity lifecycles. Rick shares his wealth of knowledge, wisdom and humour around commodity investing and speculating.

    He gives us an update on current commodity markets as a whole especially with the 10 year US treasury rate gradually increasing and what impact this will have on commodities and the industry plus his views in the junior market space, M&A activity and what commodity is most under valued at this point in time.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • The increase in the gold price from $1100 to $1900 over the past decade, coincided with the increase on the US tenure, falling from 250 basis points to 60 basis points.
    • Gold prices and gold equities will be extremely sensitive in the coming years to the US tenure rate. It's not just the nominal rate, though. This is the real rate.
    • If the interest rate continues to rise, including consumer debt and mortgage rates, then the impact will be fascinating to observe. We can expect a reduction in economic vitality.
    • Physical gold is a high vale relative-to-weight item, so if you are running out, you can easily transport it from around the world. Silver is very different in this regard.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'Retirement for me is a re-direction'

    'I underestimated the impact of liquidity and quantitative easing'

    'May you live in interesting times...'

    'It becomes expensive and cumbersome to ship the amounts of silver we need for our silver trusts'

    • We can make sure that our careers operate at their full potential by always giving our best. Hard work and diligence will be noticed, and promotions will come as a result.
    • Cultural differences can be tricky to overcome, especially those that teach their youth not to approach their elders with problems or challenges.

  • A Conversation With The SilverChartist - Steve Penny

    In the episode we chat to Steve Penny, a full-time trader specialising in silver, gold, and uranium stocks who I’ve been personally following for the last 6 months or so.

    Steve is a full time investor and newsletter writer and is known in circles as “The SilverChartist” where he shares useful tips on investing and current market trends across a handful of commodities. I wanted to get Steve on the show because speaking to clients/candidates about investing, I was surprised to find that some who invest in stocks, don’t actually invest in their own industry so though it would be good to get Steve on every few months to give us an update on the market but more importantly, educate us all on some of the things we should be looking at in terms of investing in mining stocks.

    We talk about why it’s a good time like never before to invest in mining stocks like gold, silver and uranium and the technicals around the 50 and 200 day moving averages. He also gives some gold, silver and uranium stocks tips that he invests in so don’t miss that.

    Sign up to Steve’s Free Newsletter here: https://bit.ly/3fmbMDa

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Everyone needs to own some physical metal outside of the banking system. Currently, silver presents a far more attractive investment opportunity than gold.
    • We should try to own a basket of mining stocks and try to hold it for the next two to five years. This is the best way to make this investment pay in the long term.
    • 100% of tax receipts will soon be going towards interest on the debt. The big variable will be the number on the interest rate at the time.
    • In the case of Bitcoin, there are only a finite supply of them, and when people want to own them, the price goes up. Silver is in the same position.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'I couldn't be more grateful to have this opportunity to share what I'm passionate about'

    'In my heart I want to help as many people as possible'

    'That's why it's good to have some help from someone who does this full time'

    'There's no alternative to physical silver'

  • From Geologist To CFO - with Gavin Ferrar

    In this episode we chat to Gavin Ferrar, CFO of Central Asia Metals, a copper producer with operations at Kounrad, Kazakhstan and a zinc and lead operation in North Macedonia.

    Gavin has a geology and finance background and we discuss his journey and how his career path developed from a geologist to now a CFO. We also get an update on CAML’s Kazakhstan and Macedonia’s operations and what is the outlook of the company over the next few years.

    KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • There is always a slight friction between engineering and geology disciplines. Successful miners who conquer both pursuits are well placed for almost any career in mining.
    • Experience is everything in mining. There are many opportunities for new initiates to mining, and a world of experimentation and exploration to unearth.
    • Knowledge and experience give you credibility. Even for those who wish to change lanes in mining, the benefits of applying yourself are numerous. Engineers and geologists are known for their mathematical know-how, which can be useful if they wish to transition to the finance side of things.
    • Improvements are constantly being made to the health and safety side of mining operations, as well as investment into the transition from cave level mining method, to the fill method, which also improves safety.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'I've been running around in khaki shorts and a Land Rover!'

    'It was just like Boys' Own adventure stuff'

  • The Challenges Above Ground - An Interview with Danny Callow

    In this episode we chat to Danny Callow, CEO of African Gold Group who are a Canadian exploration and development company with its focus on developing a gold platform in West Africa. Danny is a mining engineer by background and has worked across Africa for many years in many jurisdictions, so has a wealth of knowledge and experience.

    We discuss African Gold Group and what Mali is like as a mining jurisdiction, although overcoming and challenging the political and economic instability, corruption and the list goes on, and what many believe.

     KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Mining is an industry in which knowledge and experience become essential components in rising through the ranks. We must put in the hard yards before we can tell others what to do.
    • Mining as a pursuit has not really changed in its central concept, since its inception. Technology and advancements make it less hazardous, but we are still taking things from the ground.
    • Working successfully is about working hard, but it is also about having fun wherever possible. Mining allows us to do this.
    • The road network into Mali is a little rough. This makes logistics something of a challenge, including river crossings. But the infrastructure is getting better, which should make for more expedient work there.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'Mining is one of the games where you have to learn the business from the ground up'

    'This is an amazing industry'

    'This is a tough industry that breeds tough people'

    'The people of Mali value foreign investment and developing new mines in new regions'

  • Tracking The Trends Report - with Andrew Swart

    In this episode we chat to Andrew Swart, Global Mining and Metals Leader at Deloitte who has been on the podcast a few times and discusses a recent report they released around Annual Tracking the Trends Report - closing the trust deficit.

     KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • The World Economic Forum put out a report in 2020 which stated that trust was the number one issue facing the mining industry.
    • The mining industry has the potential to drive huge amounts of job creation in large parts of the world, and yet it struggles to nurture and locate talent.
    • The mining sector's response to COVID has been world-leading. Investment has continually been made in poorer areas and communities, and infrastructure has remained effective and agile.
    • Manufacturers are now backward-integrating into mining projects, as they can clearly recognise that mineral production is the future for the planet in so many ways.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'We're very excited by the feedback from the report so far!'

    'The mining industry is at a very critical juncture'

    'This is an industry that's done an excellent job in handling COVID 19'

  • #118 DD - Mining Development In Ghana - with Eric Asubonteng

    In this episode we chat to Eric Asubonteng, MD of AngloGold Ashanti Obuasi Mine who are an independent, global gold mining company with a diverse, high-quality portfolio of operations, projects and exploration activities across ten countries on four continents. They are the 3rd largest gold producer globally and the largest on the African continent.

    Eric is also the President of the Ghana Chamber of Mines, so would be interesting to hear more about that, and how mining is developing in Ghana and in the African market and what lessons can be learnt.

     KEY TAKEAWAYS

    • Mining is a sector with many pursuits, and which can provide experience on many levels, no matter the role in which we find ourselves.
    • Mining is a hugely productive enterprise. It can provide practical and exciting experience from the start, and huge opportunities in areas that would, perhaps, have not been thought productive.
    • Mining can produce lasting, positively impactful change, providing opportunity and revitalisation to communities and humanity.
    • Ghana has a long and rich mining history. Some operations have been running since the 19th century, and so have contributed to a rich heritage. This will continue.

    BEST MOMENTS

    'As a management accountant I got to understand the business more and more'

    'My interest in mining is because of the practical nature'

    'You see the real contribution that mining can make'

    'The mining industry is a key lever, that if harnessed properly can work as a catalyst to drive significant change'
