In this episode we interview Henry Antwi, an experienced mining engineer and mineral economist who has worked across the world developing his mining career and is currently involved in a number of companies such as MTG Mining Services and Mining Tool Ghana, plus others which he will explain shortly.

As a seasoned international mining professional, Henry talks about how he managed to leave Africa and seek his career elsewhere around the world. He also discusses mining in Ghana and what we can learn from his experiences. He has also recently released a new book titled “Navigating Career Challenges in the International Mining Industry; the Journey of a Mining Engineer”.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
Opportunities are always out there. We must be bold enough to chase them, even if it takes us far from home. Henry's journey has taken him around the world as is still ongoing.
When accepting any kind of role, we must do our homework and look at what we are taking on. We must ensure that we are qualified both academically and practically.
Cultures vary from country to country. Make sure you understand the cultures into which you are entering. This is crucial in forming successful business relationships.
The blending of mining and technology has become the next great shift in the industry. More and more nowadays, science, technology and data are being used to refine and execute production with incredible results.

BEST MOMENTS

'For me it was risky as there were no guarantees'

'If you get a position for the sake of economics, you can get yourself in a very bad situation'

'I went through a cultural orientation'

'The time has come when mining professionals are working very closely wit computer scientists'
