Money of Mine Building Mining Behemoths from Acorns (Owen Hegarty)
We had the privilege of speaking to mining industry veteran Owen Hegarty.
Owen began his career Rio Tinto (CRA), becoming Asia & Aus. Copper-Gold MD, before branching out and starting Oxiana, which he ultimately merged with Zinifex to form OZ Minerals. Subsequently, he co-founded mining private equity giant EMR Capital, where he serves as exec chair, having also served as the vice-chair of Fortescue during the boom times.
