Rebooting The North American Silver and Critical Minerals Supply Chain Anchor

In this episode, we chat with Heather White, CEO of the Sunshine Silver Mining & Refining Company, a U.S.-based developer focused on revitalizing one of North America’s most historic and high-grade silver districts. Under Heather’s leadership, the company is advancing plans to bring its projects back into production while also expanding into the critical minerals space, including antimony, which is drawing growing attention for its strategic importance in energy, defence, and technology. Heather shares an update on Sunshine Silver’s progress, including their recent $75 million equity raise, the five-year roadmap to restart operations, and how the company is positioning itself within the evolving U.S. critical minerals landscape. We also discuss the challenges of bringing legacy mines back online, the regulatory changes needed to accelerate domestic production, and Heather’s outlook on what investors should watch for next. KEY TAKEAWAYS Sunshine Silver is focused on restarting the Sunshine Complex in Idaho, a historic site with one of the largest undeveloped high-grade silver resources in the US, with initial production targeted for 2028. The company is building the US's only permitted large-scale antimony refinery, strategically important because antimony is a critical mineral for defense and clean energy The company has a significant advantage as its mine and refinery are already permitted and "ready to roll," helping to overcome the typically long permitting timelines in the US mining sector. The overall plan is to transform Sunshine into the cornerstone of North America's critical minerals refining solution, initially securing domestic supply for antimony and silver BEST MOMENTS "The Sunshine Complex in Idaho's Silver Valley... has produced almost $400 million ounces of silver across a century and was once among the most prolific primary silver mines in the world." "Permitting reform is the single biggest lever, not to weaken environmental standards, but to create a clear and timely and most importantly predictable process that allows responsible projects to move forward." "Sunshine sits right at the intersection of all these forces, combining not only its history, its scale, high-grade and strategic relevance in a way that very few assets can."

In this episode, we chat to Matt Fifield, Executive Chair of Cyprium Metals, an emerging Australian copper producer focused on bringing the Nifty Copper Project back into production. They recently completed an A$80 million equity raise, strengthening their balance sheet and securing new institutional support from Tribeca and the Tanito Group. With the rebuild of the Nifty operation now underway, the company is on track to deliver first copper cathode within the next 12 months, positioning itself as the only ASX-listed copper developer expected to achieve near-term production. We discuss the company's next milestones, from construction and refurbishment progress, to partnerships with Macmahon and strategies for mitigating execution risk. Matt will also share his insights on funding strategy, the evolving copper market, and how his background in global mining investment has shaped Cyprium’s disciplined approach to growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS Cyprium Metals is an emerging copper producer focused on restarting the Nifty Copper project, a brownfield site in Western Australia with a substantial sulphide reserve. The restart is being executed in two phases: Phase 1 involves bringing the heap leach and SX-EW plant back online for copper cathode production within the next 12 months, followed by Phase 2 The company successfully completed an $80 million equity raise with support from both existing shareholders and new institutional investors, including Tribeca and Tanedo Group A strategic partnership with Macmahon, a major mine contractor, is mitigating execution and schedule risks by providing deep capacity in construction, project management, and mining BEST MOMENTS "What you have to figure out is you have to figure out what do you need to do and then what do you need to stop doing... and then you just need to simplify and get to a place where you can crawl your way out of the situation." "The first phase of what we're doing is we're turning on the heap leach and it generates some really significant early cash flows for us." "We're ahead of the wave of greenfields. This is the time for brownfields. This is the time to restart old plants... you can deliver them faster."

In this episode, we chat with Anthony Vaccaro, President of The Northern Miner Group, which includes The Northern Miner, Canadian Mining Journal, and Mining.com, some of the most trusted voices in global mining media. We talk about a truly unique initiative; The Great Canadian Treasure Hunt, a nationwide adventure blending Canada’s love of exploration with its rich mining heritage. Anthony will share how the idea came about, why it’s captured the imagination of so many Canadians, and how it’s helping reconnect the public with the importance of mining and its role in our modern economy. We also look at how this initiative highlights collaboration across Canada’s mining and investment community and what participants can expect next as the hunt continues. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Great Canadian Treasure Hunt is a nationwide initiative created by the Northern Miner Group to reconnect the Canadian public with the importance and rich history of the mining industry. The hunt involves embedding clues within articles and stories about the mining sector's history and modern relevance, encouraging participants to learn while they search for hidden treasure chests containing gold coins. The top prize is a chest containing 217 gold coins (valued at over $1.1 million), and the hunt has already successfully engaged over 60,000 registered participants and reached over a million Canadians Beyond the treasure hunt for adults, the initiative includes a collaboration with Mining Matters to offer separate, age-appropriate puzzles and prizes BEST MOMENTS "The mining industry has a way of finding you... by far and away the mining sector was the most exciting sector to cover." "We said we're going to go with an emotional connector. People love treasure, people, when they're put in front of it, love gold... We strip that all the way." "This image that maybe I had growing up in Toronto, Montreal, Vancouver, that mining is all dirty and terrible, no... we want people to see that." "We are excited to hand it over to the winner. So, someone's going to find this treasure. We want it found. This wasn't hidden so that no one would find it."

We chat with Johan Coetzee, Strategy and Consulting Lead for Resources at Accenture in South Africa. Johan has extensive experience advising mining companies across the continent on how to drive digital transformation, sustainability, and operational excellence in increasingly complex environments. We’ll explore how digital innovation is redefining mining in Africa, from automation and AI to sustainability, cybersecurity, and workforce development. We’ll also look at what’s holding the industry back from wider adoption, and what Accenture’s experience reveals about how to unlock real value from technology investments. KEY TAKEAWAYS A major misconception is that digital transformation requires an immediate, costly overhaul; in reality, a phased implementation focusing on high-value use cases and incremental upgrades is more realistic The industry is responsible for balancing rising international demand for critical minerals with local imperatives for inclusive growth and social development Digital innovation and advanced analytics are key to transforming sustainability from a compliance exercise into a driver of profitability by enabling measurable progress Practical first steps for miners include defining a clear end-state vision for the digitally transformed organisation, prioritising high-value projects, and focusing on capability building BEST MOMENTS "The industry needs to grab hold of that opportunity, and then do this as a phased implementation over time." "The keyword here is transparency... and one of the benefits of technology transformation is it enables mines to make sustainability measurable and then ultimately profitable." "We see technology following the money, so where major equipment manufacturers or major mining companies have invested in a country, we see technology providers follow." "It's not only about size, it's about having the focus of where you want to get to, but then finding the right partners."

In this episode, we chat with Geoff McNamara, Co-Founder & Non-Executive Director of Tesoro Gold who are an ASX-listed company, looking to advance its flagship El Zorro Gold Project in Chile, home to the 2-million-ounce Ternera deposit with an exploration target of up to 3 million ounces. They have recently raised $34M so we’ll discuss how the funds will be used, support from shareholders and new institutions, highlights from the recent Scoping Study, drilling plans across regional targets, and the pathway to full permitting. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tesoro Gold recently raised $34 million to fund a multi-pronged strategy: completing a pre-feasibility study by mid-2026, advancing regional exploration drilling, and fully permitting the El Zorro project within 18 months. The El Zorro project is a unique, unconstrained 2-million-ounce gold resource in Chile, open in all directions and not at high altitude, with significant potential to grow to the 3-million-ounce target and beyond by linking parallel ridges like Tenore and Drone Hill. The scoping study showed attractive post-tax economics, generating a Net Present Value (NPV) over $650 million and a 50% Internal Rate of Return (IRR) at a $2,750 US dollar gold price, demonstrating the project's high competitiveness with an All-in Sustaining Cost (AISC) of $1,216 US dollars. Chile is a favourable mining jurisdiction, and the company has commenced the permitting process, locking in critical infrastructure including power (20km away) and water (30km away via a desalination plant partner), which are crucial for the project's development BEST MOMENTS "We've made the first intrusive-related gold system discovery in Chile. So it's quite a unique business and story." "The deposit is open in all direction, so a lot of that growth will just be stepping out, north, south, east, and west... it's certainly a pathway to well beyond 3 million ounces in a single deposit." "The all-in sustaining cost is 1,216 US dollars. So it's a highly competitive all-in sustaining cost." "The best leaders and entrepreneurs aren't the ones who know it all, they're the ones humble enough to keep learning through others."

In this episode, we chat with Joachim Braun, Global Division President, Process Industries, at ABB, to explore the future of copper mining and its critical role in the global energy transition. With copper demand forecast to significantly outpace supply by 2035, the mining industry faces both enormous opportunity and intense pressure. We discuss how companies are adapting strategies, the sector’s responsibility for global emissions, and the path to net zero. Joachim shares insights from ABB’s research with 400+ mining leaders, highlighting barriers to progress, the importance of incremental innovation, and where miners can seize low-hanging fruit to drive real impact. From aligning production with sustainability to building future-ready operations, this conversation unpacks the strategies that will define the next generation of copper mining. KEY TAKEAWAYS Copper demand is forecasted to significantly outpace supply by 2035, driven by the energy transition and decarbonisation efforts, requiring the industry to accelerate the development of new deposits and increase extraction from existing assets. The sector's biggest sustainability challenge comes from extraction processes, primarily fuel-powered mining vehicles, which can be electrified with commercially viable solutions that also offer better performance, higher speed, and increased throughput. The most effective strategy for aligning production and sustainability goals involves incremental innovation, such as replacing diesel gensets with solar panels over time, rather than a "big bang" implementation, as this is more suited to the industry's long asset lifecycles and risk-averse mindset. Future-ready copper mining operations will be defined by full end-to-end electrification and digital integration, allowing for remote operation centres, predictive maintenance, and integrated planning BEST MOMENTS "The good news is that there are solutions, not only available, but becoming even more and more commercially viable without any legislative interventions into the market." "The challenge is that the lead time to develop copper deposits is incredibly long. It is longer than most legislators would imagine." "The worst thing what could happen is that with the aim of decarbonisation you basically end up with production losses, loss of competitiveness... whoever has the most efficient way of producing is basically winning the race." "If you bring this together, you already get a lot of benefits without really changing the way you operate, without massive investments."

In today’s episode, we chat with Sean Wade, CEO of Power Metal Resources, and Ian Freeman, CEO of Minestarters. Sean has been on the show before, and Power Metal has been building momentum with its diverse portfolio and project incubator model. Ian joins us for the first time to introduce Minestarters, a new platform bringing blockchain and tokenisation into the world of mining finance. In this conversation, we’ll cover the progress Power Metal has made since Sean was last on the podcast, Ian’s journey to founding Minestarters, and how the platform is opening up new opportunities for project funding. We’ll also discuss the challenges with traditional mining finance, how this partnership complements Power Metal’s strategy, and what both companies have planned for the months ahead. KEY TAKEAWAYS Traditional mining finance is often constrained by a scarcity of capital, high costs, and long lock-up periods for investors, which has hindered the ability of junior miners to get projects funded. MineStarters is a fintech business that uses blockchain and tokenisation to create a decentralised finance (DeFi) network, connecting early-stage mining projects to global capital pools, allowing for 24/7 trading and liquidity. Power Metals' strategy is to continue its project incubator model—finding, developing, and crystalising assets—but with the added fintech dimension of MineStarters The partnership is highly synergistic: Power Metals will invest up to £3 million for up to a 49% equity stake in MineStarters, which will generate revenue through deal and platform fees BEST MOMENTS "The world we've been in and are in is is is tough. It's it's reduced very, very substantially. What this is going to do is going to take our model, existing model, and it's going to develop it further." "What tokenisation allows, through this distributed, um, so decentralised finance network that's enabled by the blockchain, it allows us to take this on-chain capital and bridge to the off-chain real-world asset." "I believe that the MineStarters platform, the business itself, will create a tremendous amount of value. 49% of that will be owned by the Power Metal shareholders." "We are very firmly in the space of the project incubator... The idea is that we get started on the projects, we turn them into a company, IPO that business” VALUABLE RESOURCES Mail:        ⁠[email protected]⁠ LinkedIn: ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-3a26a68/⁠ X:              ⁠https://twitter.com/MiningRobTyson⁠  YouTube: ⁠https://www.youtube.com/c/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast⁠  Web:        ⁠http://www.mining-international.org⁠ GUEST SOCIALS  Power Metal Resources X - https://x.com/PowerMetRes LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/power-metal-resources/ https://www.powermetalresources.com [email protected]  Minestarters X - https://x.com/minestarters25 LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/minestarters/ https://minestarters.com/ https://www.sec.gov/about/sec-launches-project-crypto  CONTACT METHOD ⁠[email protected]⁠ ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-3a26a68/⁠ Podcast Description Rob Tyson is an established recruiter in the mining and quarrying sector and decided to produce the “Dig Deep” The Mining Podcast to provide valuable and informative content around the mining industry.

In today’s episode, we're joined by Jacob Deysel, CEO of Critica, a company that is exploring rare earths in Western Australia. Jacob brings a wealth of experience across multiple commodities and jurisdictions, and is now focused on building a project in Australia at a time when rare earths are front and centre in the global supply chain conversation. We'll be discussing Critica’s roadmap built around Scale, Simplicity, and Speed and what it really takes to deliver on that. We’ll also touch on the challenges of metallurgy and processing, competing in a market dominated by China, and the all-important path to commercialisation and offtake agreements. Finally, we’ll hear Jacob’s personal reflections on leadership, lessons from his career, and what excites him most as he drives Critica forward. KEY TAKEAWAYS Critica is moving beyond just exploration to rebrand as Australia's next rare earth developer, with its flagship Jupiter Project positioned as the largest clay-hosted rare earth deposit in Australia. The Jupiter project is differentiated by its scale, simplicity, and speed. A key technical advantage is its highly homogeneous deposit and a clean flow sheet that achieves 95% mass rejection Critica has mitigated key industry risks by being a well-funded project with a milestone-driven approach to spending. Its location in Western Australia, a Tier 1 jurisdiction with stable government  Critica's goal is not to replace China, but to build a preferred non-China alternative for rare earth supply, focusing on producing a traceable, ESG-compliant feedstock BEST MOMENTS "We are no longer just an explorer in the rare earth space. Under my leadership, Critica is rebadging... and we're moving forward as being Australia's next rare earth developer." "The biggest technical risk that most companies struggle with is metallurgy at scale... We are addressing that through a number of parallel work streams that's running at the moment." "Being a clay deposit have allowed us to reduce the mass upfront by 95%, upgrade the grade, the feed grade from the resource by about 800% before we get to leaching." "We are not replacing China, we are building a preferred non-China alternative in Western Australia... OEMs are really looking for traceable, ESG safe, compliant rare earth feedstock."

In today’s episode, we're joined by Kevin Das, Senior Consultant at New Frontier Minerals, who sit right at the crossroads of the energy transition and geopolitics, with a portfolio of heavy rare earths and copper project, including their Harts Range project in the Northern Territory, and their copper asset at their Big One project.   We’re going to get Kevin’s overview of the company, its assets, and why heavy rare earths matter. We discuss the company's appointment of GeoDrill Australia and what that means for their Harts Range project as they move toward their maiden drilling program.   We’ll also explore the company's vision, including the path to fast-tracking copper production at Big One, also look at funding strategies across both projects, and most importantly, why investors should be paying attention now KEY TAKEAWAYS New Frontier Minerals has a portfolio focused on two key projects: the Hearts Range heavy rare earth project in the Northern Territory and the Big One copper project in Northwest Queensland Heavy rare earths like dysprosium and terbium are economically superior and strategically important The Big One copper project is considered the company's most advanced asset. New Frontier Minerals has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with a neighbouring company, Austral Resources, to explore the possibility of toll-treating their ore at the nearby Mount Kelly processing facility The company is making progress on both projects. They have recently appointed a drilling contractor to begin their maiden drill program at the Hearts Range project BEST MOMENTS "Not all rare earths are created equal, and when you get one rare earth, you get all 15 of your rare earths." "Rare earths have become a bit of a household name." "If you're going to play copper, it's definitely one of the places to be." "If we can get one of those projects to work through a discovery or development, if not both of them, I think there's definitely going to be a rerating and a real value add for all shareholders."

In today’s episode, we're joined by Jody Kuzenko, President & CEO of Torex Gold Resources. Under her leadership, Torex has established itself as a leading intermediate gold producer with a strong footprint in Mexico. We’re going to talk about the successful completion of the Media Luna Project, recent acquisitions, Torex’s approach to operating in Mexico, and the company’s impressive share price performance. We’ll also look ahead at what’s next for Torex over the coming 6 to 12 months. KEY TAKEAWAYS Torex Gold successfully funded its large-scale Media Luna project using cash flow from its existing operations, avoiding significant debt or equity raises. This strategy has led to the company now generating substantial free cash flow, which it plans to return to shareholders through buybacks and a sustainable dividend. The company has demonstrated its capability to execute complex projects on schedule and within budget, as seen with the Media Luna build. This expertise is a cornerstone of their strategy for future projects. Torex is diversifying its portfolio beyond its core Morelos Complex through recent acquisitions. They have secured early-stage exploration assets in Mexico and the US, and a new development project, positioning them as a growing multi-asset precious metals producer. Torex places a high value on its corporate culture, which is described as a place where people "willingly give the best they've got every day". This focus on a supportive and purpose-driven environment has helped the company attract and retain top talent, contributing significantly to its impressive share price performance. BEST MOMENTS "We didn't do a stream, we didn't do a royalty, we didn't do an equity raise. We did the hard work." "We take finite mineral resources and turn them into lasting prosperity by positively impacting the lives of the people that we touch." "I think the view is worth the climb there, 'cause that's where real value is created." "We are a company that believes that you can make a lot of money and deliver a lot of value for shareholders, and do good things in the world."
