At the end of our interviews, Steve and Ahmad always ask the guests two questions: what is something they think needs to live or be maintained in the mining industry at all costs; and what is something that needs to die or be jettisoned out of our industry?
We thought it would be interesting to put together some of the responses we have received to those questions over the past year.
So on this episode of Ideas that Must Die and Live in Mining, we are joined by, Mike Porter, Evren Pakyuz-Charrier, Tim Foden and Shaun Usmar.

The last decade has seen an explosion of a new type of company in the mining space: royalty companies. Royalties are nothing new to mining, they have been around for a long time. Recently, royalty companies have been innovating by getting into streaming - just like everyone else, I guess. For a deeper understanding of royalties and streaming, our guest on this episode is Shaun Usmar, who in 2016 started Triple Flag Precious Metals, a royalty and streaming company. We talked to him about why royalties and streaming are becoming commonplace in the industry. Come join us and let's explore ..read more

When we consider mining projects in arbitration, we often consider jurisdictions in Africa and Central and South America.

Come join us and let ..read more
