The Capital Shift | Examining Mining’s Alternative Funding Sources
This podcast discusses the shifting sources of capital surrounding mining, considers ESG risk and responsibility in terms of mining finance and looks forward to discuss what financing innovations – whether structures, partnerships or instruments – are most promising in delivering both speed and responsibility.
Circularity and Regenerative Thinking | Transformative Force or Incremental Fix?
This podcast discusses a deceptively simple question: “Is circularity really part of the solution for meeting the demand for critical materials, or is it just one piece of a much bigger puzzle?”
Silver bullet, or silver buckshot?
Using cobalt as a case study, this podcast explores how circular approaches could reshape supply security, value chains and the role of mining itself. The discussion unpacks what’s possible, what’s missing, and what needs to change next.
Community Voices | Re-writing Malawi’s Gemstone Story
The first of three Community Voices podcasts; this podcast focusses on Yamikani Jimusole – a Malawian miner, gemologist, entrepreneur and visionary leader. Yamikani is one of the winners of this year’s Community Voices competition, run by The Impact Facility and the Mining Indaba organisers.
