In this episode, we chat to James Withall, CEO of Rupert Resources who are a junior miner with advanced exploration and near-term production potential in Northern Finland

James, a geologist by background has over 20 years of experience in mining. Working in the field and the investment space. We discuss his journey and how Rupert Resources has evolved. Talking about their Ikkari discovery, their Pahtavaara mine, and what potential Finland has as a mining jurisdiction.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Rupert Resources is for the most part a mineral exploration company, but they now also working the assets they own.
They bought their Northern Finland asset right at the bottom of the market.
There is a lot of potential in Northern Finland. It is ripe for large-scale exploration
Finland is an easy place to get to and travel around.
There is plenty of 100% renewable energy available.
Finnish workers work well and are very safety conscious.
Finland is no more expensive to work in than places like Canada
Being a small company allows you to move fast. There is no bureaucracy to hold you back.
They have taken a fund manager approach and applied it to exploration.
Rupert Resources' exploration results have been fantastic.
They have just raised $48 million, so cash flow is not an issue.
The geology of Finland is remarkably similar to West Africa, so the potential for finds is huge.
The Ikkari discovery will be out to the market within the next 3 months.
Rupert Resources now have new geological maps of their land, which is enabling them to do more focused exploration drills.
They picked up another licence in the South, so will be exploring there too.

BEST MOMENTS

‘There is a lot more potential in Northern Finland. ´

‘Our job is to demonstrate the economic potential of whatever we find.’
