On this episode, we are joined by Sonia Scarselli, VP of BHP Xplor, a programme initiated by BHP that is dedicated to accelerating innovative, early-stage mineral exploration start-ups to find the critical resources necessary to drive the energy transition. The BHP Explor Program is searching around the globe for the next generation of explorers that are ready to think about the earth’s minerals systems differently to unlock copper, nickel, and other critical mineral deposits. Let's explore.
On this episode, we are joined again by Scott Briscoe, for part 2 of our discussion where we try to understand what constitutes a discovery in mineral exploration. Join us and let's explore.
How is something so fundamental to mineral exploration like the nature of what constitutes a discovery can have such a poorly accepted industry-wide definition? Maybe it is like the old adage, if you do not know which port you are sailing to, then no wind is favourable. If everyone can define discovery, then does that mean no one can define discovery? On this episode, we are joined by Scott Briscoe, and we try to understand what constitutes a discovery in mineral exploration Let's explore.
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. Join us and let's explore.

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.
When we consider mining projects in arbitration, we often consider jurisdictions in Africa and Central and South America. But increasingly, projects in developed countries are following a similar path for other reasons - like community objection, or environmental concerns, or permitting delays. Sometimes you just need a lawyer in your corner to help you through these situations. You better hope it is not too late… Our guest on this episode is Tim Foden, a partner at Boise Schiller Flexner, specialising in International Dispute Resolution, particularly in the mining sector. Come join us and let's explore.
Our guest today is Evren Pakyuz-Charrier, Lead Geologist at Oslandia, a company specialising in developing open-source GIS software. Evren is looking to create bespoke open-source GIS solutions for the exploration and mining industry through QGIS, the most prominent open-source GIS software platform. If you are a user of QGIS, you might want to listen to what Evren and Oslandia can do for you. Let's explore.
For decades, Mike Porter ran a business where he took people worldwide to various mine sites and deposits. These tours were open to anyone; somehow, Mike managed to navigate the red tape and get onto every mine site. That was the magic of the Porter Geo International Study Tours. Let's explore.
In this episode, Ahmad and Steve give a talk at SEG 2022. Let's explore.
In this episode, our guests are Matthew Pearson and Dr Gerrit Olivier from Fleet Space. We have always had a desire to explore our planet. Our history is rich with explorers that did just that. The next chapter in the Exploration of Earth might involve doing it from space. Fleet Space is trying to create technology to do just that. Let's explore.
In this episode, our guest is Angel Abbud-Madrid. Angel is the Director of the Center for Space Resources at the Colorado School of Mines, where he leads a research program focused on the human and robotic exploration of space and the utilisation of its resources. He is also the Director of the Space Resources Graduate Program, aimed to educate scientists, engineers, economists, entrepreneurs, and policymakers in the field of extraterrestrial resources. Angel has more than 30 years of experience conducting experiments in NASA’s low-gravity facilities, such as drop towers, parabolic-flight aircraft, the Space Shuttle, and the International Space Station. He received the NASA Astronauts’ Personal Achievement Award for his contributions to the success of human space flight. Let's explore.
In this episode, our guest is Professor Andy Koronios. Andy is CEO & Managing Director of the SmartSat CRC. Andy is a professor of information systems and previously held the positions of Dean: Industry & Enterprise and Head of the School of Information Technology & Mathematical Sciences, at the University of South Australia. Andy has recently led a bid to establish a space industry-focused Cooperative Research Centre (CRC) aimed at catapulting Australia into the global space industry through collaborative research and development with the support of over 100 participants from industry, government and academia. The SmartSat CRC is the biggest space industry-research collaboration in Australia's history. Let’s explore.
In this episode, our guest is Paul Roos. Paul is an AFL or Australian Rules Football icon. He played for 17 years for the Fitzroy and Sydney Football clubs. In his prime, Paul was rated as the best footballer in Australia and has been inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame. After finishing his playing career, Paul became a successful coach. He first became the head coach of the Sydney Swans and then the Melbourne Football Club. His consulting company, Performance by Design, has a nice quote as part of its marketing pitch: don’t leave culture to chance. I like that. Let’s explore.
In this episode, our guest is Arthur Richards “Rick” Rule IV, better known as Rick Rule. He needs no introduction. If you don't know who Rick is, Google him. There's a good chance Google was invented purely for searching for Rick Rule and his many achievements. Furthermore, if you want to know what Amalgamated Aardvarks are, you won't find that through Google. You will just have to listen to the episode. Let’s explore.
In early 2002, Barrick Gold decides to merge with another company, Homestake Mining, to create one of the largest Gold companies in the world. A young French Canadian geologist (do not hold that against him) working for Barrick in Nevada is asked to pack his bags and move to Australia, to take up a vacant Chief Geologist position for this combined company. At the same time, a young Australian geologist from Adelaide South Australia (do not hold that against him) was working for Homestake and is asked to take over the Australian Exploration Manager role for the new company. Both men were taking on new management roles, a huge step up for both of them. That's how Francois Robert and Rob Krcmarov first meet. This episode is about 2 people with different skillsets who decided to work together by creating a relationship of mutual respect and trust. Let's explore.
This is Part 2 of our conversation with Dave Lawie, who is the Chief Geoscientist and Technologist at IMDEX limited. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. Let's explore.
On this week's episode, Steve and Ahmad got the chance to sit down with Dave Lawie, who is the Chief Geoscientist and Technologist at IMDEX limited. Dave was one of the first people we wanted to talk to on this show, so it seems fitting that he joins us for the 50th episode. We hope you enjoy this conversation as much as we did. Let's explore.
In 2006, researchers from the Institute de Recherche pour le Developpment or the Institute of Research for Development in Toulouse, founded a research project in West Africa called the West African Exploration Initiative or WAXI. In this episode, we are joined by Mark Jessell and Nicolas Thebaud, who have been involved in the WAXI project from nearly the beginning and are now two of the people behind the Agate Project. Let's explore.
