Discovery Group’s Post

I'd like to introduce our newest assignment with a junior focused on advanced exploration in the #WestAfrica #gold belts. This newly created role will play a pivotal part in the technical leadership across their newest projects. This indiviudal will be a resource #geologist with AusIMM or equivalent qualifications implementing and developing top-level standards for all-things resource, including estimation and resource modeling. This will be a key part of the leadership team as their Group Resource Geologist...

When we think of metals and mineral-rich countries, the usual suspects like #Australia, #China, and #Canada often come to mind. But did you know that several unexpected nations are sitting on some of the world's most valuable untapped resources? These countries within this #infographic could play pivotal roles in the global resource landscape in the years to come. It’s worth keeping an eye on them as demand for these critical minerals continues to rise. discoverygr.com #miningIndustry #resourceeconomies #globalmetals #untappedpotential #untapped #metals #minerals #emergingmarkets #discovery

Not just today. Every day... #RUOK

Big #news in the mining world. AngloGold Ashanti has agreed a $2.5bn deal to acquire Centamin PLC as consolidation heats up in the #preciousmetals #mining sector. Centamin who own #Sukari and #Doropo in Egypt and Cote D'Ivoire respectively are the latest mining group to leave London. The LSE has struggled following #Randgold’s exit when it merged with Barrick and the exodus of Russian gold miners following the invasion of Ukraine.... https://lnkd.in/duCgdKrj discoverygr.com #anglogold #anglogoldashanti #centamin #acquisition #africa #egypt #cotedivoire #deal #mining #miningnews #gold #discovery

Earlier this year I read this really interesting article from Xuan-Ce Wang (Linked: https://lnkd.in/g8Ect5nB) outlining his insights 'into the trends, adjustments, risks, and investment strategies shaping the Australian lithium mining industry in Q4 2023'. Now, 2024 has seen a signifiant drop off in the #lithium buzz and lots of companies that saw buoyancy in the commodity and #batterymaterials in 2023 are now suffering from the drop off in Q1 and Q2 of 2024. So, to hopefully start the wheel turning on the commodity's rejuvenation, below is a 3 page infographic that illustrates the biggest and best producers of the #battery material from the past year... discoverygr.com #li #lithium #spodumene #exploration #projects #chile #argentina #australia #china #mining #lithiummining #batterymetals #discovery

As 2024 comes towards the end of Q3, the industry as a whole will be busy, including the activity of sourcing the ideal and relevant personnel for each project to advance effectively. However, we all know this is all correlational to the ebbs and flows of commodity prices and investment, which many juniors have found difficult in the current market. However, here is an #infographic of the number of #projects in each state and territory in #Australia for 2024 moving into 2025... I have also found these 2 websites which could help source where the opportunities are for interest, investment or even employment; - https://lnkd.in/gHt_-y3N - https://lnkd.in/gGc2QtnC www.discoverygr.com #australiajobs #miningjobs #mining #gold #copper #nickel #lithium #coal #ironore #rareearths #mineralsands #minerals #discovery

Average lead time almost 18 years for mines started in 2020–23 According to S&P Global: "The average mine lead time continues to trend upward, reaching 17.9 years for mines coming online in 2020–23 compared with 12.7 years for mines that started up 15 years ago. In this update of our previous article studying the lead time of mines — the interval from discovery to production — we have included several mines that started in 2023 and backfilled information on mines that started earlier. This study includes gold, copper, nickel and lithium mines that have begun production since 2000. All the main points that we presented in our previous study have held true in this iteration. It takes an average of approximately 16 years for a mine to go from discovery of a deposit to startup. Open-pit mines have a longer average lead time than underground mines due to the longer exploration and permitting phases. Nickel mines have the longest lead time due to a longer construction period, amplified by several mines discovered in the mid-1980s and 1990s when lower nickel prices may have caused tighter access to capital." discoverygr.com #timetobuildamine #mining #capital #gold #copper #lithium #nickel #zinc #ironore #coal #america #usa #africa #southamerica #northamerica #development #discovery
