August 11, 2023 Leeuwin Metals IPO - with Chris Piggott and Scott Williamson
Today is the official IPO listing of Leeuwin Metals (ASX:LM1) and to give us the spiel about this exciting new Nickel and Lithium explorer we’ve got the Managing Director Chris Piggott, alongside Non-Executive Director Scotty Williamson. You may also know as the Managing Director at fellow Nickel explorer and project developer, Blackstone Minerals (ASX:BSX).
Chris has a very impressive CV and track record of being involved in some significant discoveries, namely the lodes that helped Bellevue Gold define + 3moz and also the Nova/Bollinger deposit (now operated by IGO).
Leeuwin’s flagship asset is the William Lake Nickel project, located in the Manitoba province of Canada. This project has a decent opportunity for a large scale Nickel Sulphide project. There is already circa 90,000m of exploration drilling already in the ground, which is a replacement cost of circa $C355. The data from this shows Nickel intersections varying from 200m to +700m downhole, with high Nickel grades in addition to the presence of PGE’s.
Chris has some decent skin in the game, being the top shareholder so he is heavily aligned with Leeuwin becoming a successful explorer. They’re trading on the ASX now, check out LM1 and enjoy my chat with Chris Piggott and Scotty Williamson.

**Check out the Leeuwin Metals website for further information**

June 13, 2023 What is the GOLD SERIES?
The "Gold Series" is the new hot get together within the Aussie Gold industry. This event has been curated by White Noise Communications and Caldera House and in this chat we get to hear from the two head honchos themselves, Amalie Schreurs and Gigi Penna.

The first 2 events are in Melbourne and Sydney (21st + 23rd June), with a 3rd event planned for Perth in July. Considering gold prices are at an all-time highs with corporate activity increasing, Amalie and Gigi believe now is the time to unlock value within WA's gold sector.

Kristie Batten from Mining News will be hosting a Fireside Chat and I (Matty) will also be conducting a Footy Show style "Roving Mic" so brace yourselves if you are attending the event.

Check out White Noise Communications and Caldera House if you're looking for some gun investor relations teams in the Mining Industry.

June 11, 2023 Who is the Latest Big Entrepreneur in Mining?
*** Sign up for online JUMBO TRAINING at https://lifeofminepodcast.com/members-podcasts/ ***

Now my Aussie Underground Miners counterpart Scott Gorfin joined me for a few schooners to interview an absolute machine of a bloke that is really having a crack in the space of Mining E-Commerce and a gut load of other stuff, Jake Harris.

Shakey Jakey is the founder of the Nipper Store, the go to online shop for everything Underground Mining. You can get ya tool bags, cap lamps, socks, self rescuer pouches, work torches, toiletries and there's also plenty of t-shirts, hats and stickers with the great nipper store logo on it. He’s started it from scratch and its going absolute gang busters. He's even making Laser covers to service the Jumbo industry (my type of guy).

He’s also got another venture going (I'm getting worn out just from thinking about all the work he does). SAFETY SILO is an online database that will be used to collate Mining Incidents and allow everyone to access the learnings and key findings from them, even if they are not within your Company.

June 10, 2023Entech LEGENDS: Tony Sime - Golden Grove, Gwalia, Degrussa + Management Style
*** Sign up for online JUMBO TRAINING at https://lifeofminepodcast.com/members-podcasts/ ***

Welcome to another ENTECH LEGENDS episode, proudly supported by our great friends at Entech Mining. Hit them up for anything in the fields of Mining Engineering, Resource Geology, Geotechnical and Ventilation (best in the game). Get in touch with them at https://entechmining.com.au/ and also give them a follow on Linkedin at https://www.linkedin.com/company/entech-pty-ltd/.

Now before you get into this finale episode with Tony Sime, make sure you head back to Parts 1 and 2 if you haven’t listened to them already. Part 1 goes into Simesy's airleg days all throughout WA and Part 2 goes through his early Management days with Eltin. Within Part 2 there is a great bit on the early development of North Parkes that is well worth a listen.

Now in part 3 with Simesy, we talk about the backend of his career in his upper management days. He ran mines such as Golden Grove, oversaw the development of Gwalia deeps, started up the Degrussa Copper mine and then finished off with Northern Star running Plutonic and also did a bit at South Kal and Pogo. Plenty of great learnings in this episode for all the Engineers and Managers out there. Some episode highlights include:
Controlling Sulphide Dust explosions at Golden Grove

How Simesy got Degrussa out of the underground flooding situation

What stands out to him as a poor culture on a Mine Site and Simesy's attitude and methods for improving it

How Simesy mentored us young folk through making mistakes and how we learnt and grew from them

What Simesy's management style was based around and why he was so respected

Thanks for the opportunity Simesy, one of the best interviews I've had the pleasure of doing and thanks for looking after the industry while you were in it.
