[𝐅𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄𝐒 𝐍𝐄𝐖𝐒] Embracing the contributions of women in mining, and especially those in the mining of platinum-group metals (PGMs), can offer many benefits, reports women-centric network Women in PGMs in this week's #LondonIndaba Preview feature. Read More: https://bit.ly/3KEj2bY

#PDAC 2024 - Segment of the interview with Mark Cutifani  chairman of Vale Base Metals in the event hosted by Ana Gabriela Juarez founder of Women in Mining (WIM) Central America. I asked him: I would like to start with a quote you mentioned recently in an interview "I work in an industry that has the more positive environmental footprint on the face of the planet", could you please elaborate on that thought and what you mean? Watch the video!! The rol of the industry in the society!!

We asked you what the #IDWIM2024 theme 'I Am Mining and I Belong' means to you, and your responses have been amazing! Today we highlight Alicia Robles León - Velarde from #Peru who said: “I am a woman in mining and I belong”. She added: "The statement 'I am in mining, and I belong' gives me a profound sense of pride, not just for my personal accomplishments but also for the remarkable achievements of my female colleagues in the mining industry. Despite its historical dominance by men, our substantial contributions to the field underscore our unique abilities, in different areas of the mining operation. It serves as a powerful call to an inclusive and supportive environment, recognizing the diverse talents and contributions that women bring to the industry." We want to hear YOUR take on it! Share your thoughts, stories, and experiences with us at celebrate@internationalwim.org or let us know in the comments and join the conversation. #IDWIM2024 #IDWIM #IAmMining #SoyMinería #JeSuisLactivitéMinière #SouMineração #WomenInMining #MiningIndustry

Did you know that women in mining get paid 3x more than women in any other industry ? That is why more women should get into the mining industry. Ege Tekinbas shares global stats with us on how women are doing in the mining industry and she has categorised the research into: Redundancy, Reskilling, Skills Transfer from other Sectors & Skills Import. This research shows how the mining sector needs more than just mining engineers and there are spaces to be filled by women within the industry.

I'd like to give you the human side to this brief interview! Women In Mining UK (WIM UK) do so much to support their volunteers and the wider community of women. Aymone Schendel waited around for me so we could do this recording. The minute we stopped she was hands on to pack things up in time to make it to the airport. I just want to give a sincere shout out to all the WIM UK volunteers for their commitment, kindness, and support, and especially to Aymone Schendel who is tireless and really quite irreplaceable. Women in Mining is a community of people who want the best for each other, and work endlessly to support each woman's advancement. Thank you. You can count on me as an ally too. For myself, this was day 5 of non-stop listening, thinking, hosting, moderating, engaging and under-eating for a range of reasons. I think you can tell by the state of my face (not to mention inability to string a sentence together (sorry Lucie Goulet!)) that I was exhausted! But I stand by my words. Mining is complex, and I love a challenge, which is what keeps me invested in it. What I didn't say is that I think positive disruption in mining means mainstreaming feminist values - greater inclusion, democracy, equity, compassion in governance and decision-making. The way I want to positively disrupt mining is to help others envisage and vivify a post-extractivist, contributory, and regenerative sector that is welcomed by local communities, leverages its expertise and connections to nature to enhance the environment, and that truly benefits nations as a whole and not just the elite. This is not just about advancing women - that is important. It's also about addressing racism, classism, patriarchy as a whole, etc. And for those who haven't studied feminism, please don't misunderstand; this is as much about benefiting any gender because empowered and equal women and queer people is good for men too. It really is about centering welfare, freedom, and unleashing the potential of each of us to be our best in a system that facilitates that. Perhaps this is one of the hardest sectors to achieve this, but we must try.

Check out this article, published by NIOSH, on some of the unique challenges women face in the mining industry. Looking forward to more research on this important topic. #womeninmining

Very interesting research on occupation health and employment concerns for women in the mining industry. Many of these factors, including maternity leave and childcare benefits, greatly affect women involvement in the industry. It's great to see research and developments made to diversify and improve access for women and families in these areas. #womeninmining

Women have played a critical role in the global mining industry throughout history. Over the last 20 years, while the industry has focused efforts on recruiting and retaining women, the number of women in mining has remained roughly the same.
