Listen "Future-Proofing Mining: Supply, Geopolitics, and Innovation - with Mark Cutifani"
Episode Synopsis
In today’s episode, we're joined by one of the industry’s most respected leaders, Mark Cutifani, former CEO of Anglo American and Chair of the ICMM.
We discuss the long-term supply outlook for mining, the risks, opportunities and disruptions shaping the next decade. From critical minerals and geopolitical shifts to innovation and resilience, Mark shares his perspective on what’s coming and how the industry can prepare.
Mark is also going to be attending the upcoming Resourcing Tomorrow event - the premier gathering for the world’s mining leaders taking place in London from 2-4 December. What sets this event apart is its unmatched audience: C-level executives from the biggest mining companies worldwide, over 40 government ministers, leading mining technology providers, and many more mining professionals in the industry.

KEY TAKEAWAYS
No single country dominates global mineral supply, meaning the world needs to trade across geopolitical blocks to function effectively.
The core challenge to supply is not a lack of resources, but the 20+ year timeframe required to get projects approved and materials to market.
Companies that can inherently flex their production volume based on market demand and commodity price cycles significantly outperform their peers.
Long-term success is built on pre-planning and quick capital return (3-5 years), excellent technical execution, and securing the right people and talent at every phase.
BEST MOMENTS
"No one country dominates global minerals and metals supply. And for the world to function, and for individual countries to function effectively, we're going to need to trade."
"The bigger risk is one of permitting... a problem with supply not because of exploration, but because of the processes to get those materials to market."
"Your ability to average a price 10 to 15 to 20% above the average price through the cycle, puts you in my experience the top quartile performers in the industry."
