Money of Mine Welcome to Matty’s (Underground) World
We flipped the switch today and dived into the world underground mining with Matty.
We break down the step by step process of mining underground, challenges different mines can face, things to keep an eye out for during ramp up, what’s underappreciated by the investing community about mining and heaps more.
Lastly, we rounded off with a rapid fire on some mining news from Evolution, St Barbara and some small cap gold bolters from the day.
