In this episode of Hearts & Mines, we sit down with Tommy McKeith, a seasoned mining executive with over 30 years’ experience across geology, exploration, business development, and leadership. From leading international growth at Gold Fields to shaping the direction of companies like Evolution Mining, Arrow Minerals, Thungela Resources, and Ordell Minerals, Tommy brings deep insight into what drives sustainable growth in the mining sector. We explore how global experience informs strategy, the evolving role of exploration, and the importance of balancing commercial discipline with long-term opportunity.
