The Northern Miner podcast takes a turn this week as it relocates to our Toronto head office with a new cast of regular hosts including editor-in-chief John Cumming, senior staff writer Trish Saywell, staff writer Richard Quarisa and online editor Adrian Pocobelli.
We start with a salute to our Mining Person of the Year for 2017: Sean Boyd of Agnico Eagle Mines. We then move into a quick review of commodity prices, recent DRC news, and a look at some of the exploration and mining stats that were released during the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada convention.
In addition to our regular podcast sponsors the Yukon Mining Alliance and the Grosso Group, we welcome this month’s new Mining Minute sponsor SRK Consulting.
We introduce a new segment called “Ric’s picks”, where Richard tells us the names of a few miners that caught his eye on the stock market in the past week.
That’s followed by a feature interview with Stephen Stewart, who is the CEO of Orefinders Resources and a director and co-founder of the Toronto chapter of the Young Mining Professionals.
