CEO, INTERNATIONAL COUNCIL ON MINING & METALS (ICMM)
"Brazil, as a leading producer of critical minerals including iron ore, bauxite, copper, and nickel, has a significant role to play in building the industry of the future."
"We are excited about the opportunities in the industry, but we also recognize the need to address challenges such as the skilled labor shortage and attracting new talent to mining."
"Despite recent security challenges, Burkina Faso has a strong track record of opening an average of 1.2 new mines annually since 2010. We expect this trend to continue."
"We are committed to continuing to pay an attractive dividend to our shareholders, and look forward to declaring a maiden resource in Sudan within the next 12 months."
