FILTERED INTERVIEW RESULTS

Greg Heiges and Peter Rowland

MINING BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER (GH) AND CANADA SOLUTION SALES MANAGER (PR), YOKOGAWA
"Our goal is to stabilize mining operations by managing fluctuations in material quality and throughput with our control systems."

Ronald Thiessen

PRESIDENT AND CEO, NORTHERN DINASTY MINERALS
"Not bringing a large-scale mine like Pebble into production is a delay the US cannot afford."

Jodi Banta

PROGRAM MANAGER & WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT RESEARCHER, UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA SCHOOL OF MINING & MINERAL RESOURCES (SMMR)
"A major challenge in recruiting talent for the mining industry is its low visibility, making it less attractive compared to more well-known fields."

Willem Van Twembeke

CEO, INKIA ENERGY
"Producing a ton of copper ore requires 30-100 kilowatt-hours of energy. By providing cleaner electricity, we help mining clients reduce emissions."

Jeff Parshley

CORPORATE CONSULTANT, SRK (US)
"We increasingly acknowledge the need to factor extreme climatic events into our designs and operational plans."

Paul Stockburger and Rob Simm

VP AND SECTOR LEADER, MINING, MINERALS & METALS (PS) AND SVP, EMERGENT SECTOR LEADER, WATER (RS), STANTEC
"The concept of "mining within a mine" is gaining traction, allowing us to economically extract additional value from waste rock. This method is less energy-intensive, requires less water, and is more environmentally sustainable in terms of permitting."

Keith Jones

GENERAL MANAGER, SMALL MINE DEVELOPMENT
"Our approach starts with understanding each client's goals and adapting our strategies accordingly. At times, we may focus on development to access ore bodies, while other times, we concentrate on production to meet annual goals in ounces."

Tom Meuzelaar

FOUNDER AND OWNER, LIFE CYCLE GEO
"Machine learning can aid significantly in the identification of various water types which supports management strategies such as monitoring potential impacts across project boundaries. It is an indispensable tool in supporting ongoing measurement of water quality throughout the life cycle."

Dagny Odell

OWNER, PRACTICAL MINING
"We recently completed a 10-year mine plan that contained over 5,000 excavations, with several production schedule alternatives for economic evaluation. These detailed plans and flexibility were unimaginable thirty years agos."

George Ogilvie

PRESIDENT AND CEO, ARIZONA SONORAN COPPER COMPANY
"On average, we are showing 86,000 short t/y of cathode production, which is 172 million lb/y of copper, totaling 5.3 billion pounds of copper over the 31-year LOM."

MACIG 2025 - Mining in Africa Country Investment Guide

It is said that mining is a patient industry. Current demand projections are not. Demand for minerals deemed ‘critical’ is set to increase almost fourfold by 2030, according to the UN. Demand for nickel, cobalt and lithium is predicted to double, triple and rise ten-fold, respectively, between 2022 and 2050. The world will need to mine more copper between 2018 and 2050 than it has mined throughout history. 2050 is also the deadline to curb emissions before reaching a point of ‘no return.’ The pace of mineral demand and the consequences of not meeting it force the industry to act fast and take more risks. Mining cannot afford to be a patient industry anymore. The scramble for supply drives miners back to geological credentials, and therefore to places like the African Central Copperbelt.
