Segun Lawson
CEO, THOR EXPLORATIONS
"Our jurisdictional diversification is certainly a defining characteristic of Thor, but so is the fact that our projects are also diversified by stage of development."
Matthieu Bos
PRESIDENT AND CEO, FALCON ENERGY MATERIALS
"We are aware that graphite is not rare in itself; the crux (and the real value) is the midstream processing and refining part, and that’s what we are tapping into."
Diego Vallim and Laurence Goodacre
VP, EUROPE, MIDDLE EAST AND CENTRAL ASIA (DV) & VP AFRICA (LG), ORICA
"We are seeing the development of new projects and much more greenfield exploration in Africa, which is also accelerating its adoption of advanced technologies, with customers increasingly seeking digital solutions."
Jacques Badenhorst
CEO, MAATLA RESOURCES
"South Africa faces a looming coal shortage as existing producers struggle to remain competitive, creating opportunities for Botswana coal."
Gavin Chamberlain
CEO, BANNERMAN ENERGY
"Namibian uranium can be sold to both Eastern and Western markets, and we intend to keep it that way, the exception being that we will not sell uranium to Russia."
Ken Johnson
CEO, LIPARI MINING
"Sustainability is increasingly important to high-end retailers and jewelers, many of whom now commit to sourcing only from companies working toward net-zero carbon footprints. Lipari meets that standard."
Vis Reddy
CHAIRMAN, SOUTH AFRICA & REGIONAL COORDINATOR (AFRICA), SRK GLOBAL
"We have learnt a lot about working with Chinese companies, who often preferred to work with contractors back home. We responded by working closely with the SRK Beijing office and creating a multi-country team involving South Africa, DRC and China – which has opened many doors."
Jorge Ganoza
CEO, FORTUNA MINING
"We expanded our business in West Africa and built our largest mine to date at a time when the markets were risk averse. Being counter-cyclical takes both discipline and guts, but it pays off and we are now reaping the benefits."
Paul Hemburrow
MD AND CEO, PALADIN ENERGY
"With a producing mine in Namibia and an exciting near-term development uranium project in Canada, along with other assets in that country, Paladin now has geographical diversification and a multi-decade production pipeline."
Jørgen Evjen
CEO, AKOBO MINERALS
"Over the next five to 10 years, I believe Ethiopia will rise to become a huge mining jurisdiction, absorbing much of that capital that is being pulled out of West Africa."
