Here’s our chat with mineral economics, geology & strategy whiz John Sykes.
We went through a raft of topics, from commodities such as tin, lithium, rare earths & gold, to the role of government in supporting the industry, how China built its dominance, the biases that we’re all guilty of and a heap more.
