The Challenge Of Mining – with Christian Milau

View descriptionShare

In this episode we chat to Christian Milau, CEO of Equinox Gold, a Canadian gold producer operating in the Americas with six producing gold mines and four growth projects which are projected to produce over 1M oz over the next few years. 

We talk about Christian’s career; how he has worked with some influential mining figures, and the experience and knowledge he has gained from them. We continue talking about their projects in Mexico and Brazil, and the ways in which he sees the gold market playing out.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Mining is a conglomerate of many different skill bases and experiences from around the world. It is an ever-evolving pursuit that grows and develops daily.
  • Gold prices rise and fall, but those with a long term view are the ones able to see themselves through the period of uncertainty, and who find success and prosperity on the other side.
  • Coronavirus has proved that it is here for the long term. We need to be ready to fight its effects for at least the next 6 to 24 months, and adapt to a completely new way of working.
  • Mining differs around the globe, but there are similarities to be found everywhere. You always need a good team, good service providers and good suppliers in order to bring in the biggest yields.
  • It is incumbent upon mining operations to do their part in raising help from local communities in order to better assimilate into the landscape they wish to invest in.

BEST MOMENTS

‘When I was in school I never imagined I would be where I am today!’

‘If you have a short term horizon, you’re going to get caught out’

‘Mining is a challenge in business wherever you are’

’Some of these failures are driving our industry towards other safer ways to do things'
