BEST MOMENTS

"So yeah, this is where we are today. I always wanted to be a professional footballer, and I was, it's not going to happen, and I always want to be a professional golfer, it's not going to happen, so I'm going to stick to my knitting, right, and it's mining, that's it." 

"I think the nickel space in Canada is going to be quite a significant contributor to the EV space in North America." 

"You know, drilling is a big, big, big thing that you need to focus on. It gives you a lot of good information and it only gives you good information if you've got good geologists to interpret it."

"I think as well, you've just got to make sure that, you know, you don't be, you know, don't be shy to make the reality that, you know, there's inflation in the world and there's, you know, the shortage of people."
