In this episode, we chat with Fabian Baker, MD of Kingsrose, an ASX-listed junior miner on a mission to unearth vital mineral deposits that will help drive the world’s energy revolution and develop these resources as a force for good within local communities and the environment with projects in Norway and Finland.

Fabian is a geologist with more than 12 years of experience in the mineral exploration industry with experience in the Balkan and Nordic regions, where he has successfully identified and negotiated the acquisition of a number of significant gold, copper, and base metal advanced exploration assets during his career. Fabian discusses Kingsrose, how the company has developed since inception, and what they are looking to achieve moving forward.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Kingsrose started with a focus on building the Way LinggoGold Silver mine in Indonesia, which was successful but faced challenges leading to closure in 2020. The company then shifted its focus back to exploration.
The Penikat project in Finland is one of the highest grade undeveloped PGE's deposits globally. The project was overlooked by other juniors due to historical factors and recent environmental designations, but Kingsrose is working on obtaining permits for drilling.
Kingsrose has invested in building a significant in-house geo and sustainability team, which sets them apart from other junior miners who often outsource these roles. This approach helps in better community engagement and access to opportunities.
Over the next 12 months, Kingsrose aims to advance its projects significantly, including obtaining permits for drilling at Penikat, ongoing exploration campaigns with BHP, and acquiring a more advanced asset to further grow the company.

BEST MOMENTS

"I think don't look for perfect. Don't expect too much. Just look for an opportunity to get involved." 

"The reality is, The odds are stacked against us. We need really high quality teams with multiple opportunities that we cycle through and test." 

"For me, people are the best possible resource for a business. I'm a big believer in that." 

"We're seeing around the world countless examples of projects being held up and delayed for environmental or social issues. And quite frankly, things can be done better."
