Malcolm Paterson, CEO & Director of Greengold Engineering joins Rob to talk about his mineral project development and production company based in Indonesia, who specialises in developing innovative technologies to reduce costs and improve recovery in the processing of minerals.

Malcolm gives his invaluable insights into the new technologies he is developing for his many clients, along with how they can add value and save capital with their processing facilities.

 

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Malcom and Greengold are hoping to change their name and image soon, from Greengold Engineering to Greengold Technology. This is being done to ensure that people know that their true focus is on mining technology going forward.
  • Greengold covers many disciplines and can take a project through from exploration to production. Exploration, drilling, geology, mining, processing and engineering are just some of the areas in which Greengold specialise.
  • Greengold focus only on gold, silver and copper. This narrow focus has allowed Greengold to develop highly acute technologies across many disciplines, instead of spreading themselves far too thin.
  • By working with suppliers closely, Greengold has managed to shorten the process quite often when it comes to developing a project.
  • Developing on an international basis is crucial to Greengold’s plans. By taking the best of one country’s resources and transplanting them to different areas of the globe, Greengold is establishing itself as an efficient and knowledgeable player in mining.
  • The integration of geology and process is of the utmost importance. By providing a complete end-to-end process for their clients, and by specialising in just a few areas, Greengold have marked out their unique appeal.
  • Greengold believes that mining companies should be more self-supporting than they currently are. Whether they are drilling or mining, companies can always benefit by bringing their operation in-house. It saves a huge amount of money, and can lead to a wider field of expertise.

BEST MOMENTS

‘We don’t try to be a specialist in every field’

‘Too many startups try to focus on too many disciplines at once’

‘We can develop a project from start to finish with no gaps’

‘We have Indonesian geologists working in Australia, which is quite novel...’

‘If the metallurgist doesn’t understand what’s in the ground, then the engineer can’t design a good plan’
