In this episode, we chat to Sonia Scarselli, VP of BHP Metal Exploration and BHP Xplor, which is a global accelerator program targeting innovative, early-stage mineral exploration companies to find the critical resources necessary to drive the energy transition.

Sonia is a highly experienced geologist having worked in both the oil and gas and mining industries and has been with BHP for over a decade and talks to us about the global exploration market, BHP Xplor program, and BHP's exploration focus plus a lot more around the junior mining space in these difficult times.

Sonia is going to be attending Europe’s largest mining event, Resourcing Tomorrow, (Formerly known as Mines and Money London,) which is taking place in London on the 28-30 November, a great platform for the entire mining value chain, fostering learning, lively debates, and providing valuable networking opportunities.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
The BHP Xplor program is an accelerator program targeting innovative early-stage mineral exploration companies to find critical resources for the energy transition.
The future of mineral exploration is influenced by the electrification and energy transition, which increases the demand for mineral resources, especially critical minerals like copper and nickel.
Partnerships and collaborations are crucial in the exploration industry, both with peers and junior mining companies, to unlock larger regions of potential and accelerate resource discovery.
The BHP Xplor program provides selected companies with mentorship, technical guidance, and support in areas such as business, finance, operations, HSE, stakeholder engagement, and vendor connections.

BEST MOMENTS

"We need at least three times the amount of copper that we're using today by 2030."

"We want them to come out of the program with the best chance to raise the capital they need." 

"There is a need for partnership and collaboration with large enterprises like ourselves, with some of our peers." 

"We have been learning a lot from that space, especially on running the business in a more agile and nimble way."
