Today we’re going deep into the world of mining private equity with Fraser Perry.
If those words don’t mean an awful lot to you, don’t worry, because we’re going back to basics. We break down:
• What mining PE is
• The scale & impact it has on the industry
• How these investors are incentivised
• And what mining PE will look like in the future
The goal is to pull the veil off from influential groups like Orion, Appian, RCF, EMR through to Tembo, Hawkes Point and many others.
We hope you enjoy this seriously educational ep.

Tomasz Nadrowski is one of the deepest thinkers in the natural resources sector, and we finally got him on the show.
From his position in New York, Tomasz's fund invests purely in non-Chinese critical mineral plays – a challenging feat in a sector dominated by Chinese offtakes, mining, and processing.
We pressed Tomasz to share his unique views on the most critical themes shaping the industry, including:
• The reality of a bifurcated commodity world and how to play it
• How to successfully turn complex geopolitical thoughts into investable theses
• A deep dive into the US's rare earth intervention and what Western government action we can expect next
• The critical elements he finds most appealing right now (and why he is deliberately avoiding common favourites like copper and uranium)
This was recorded on 4.12.2025.

Brett Smith joins us for an unexpectedly open conversation about Metals X, its turnaround and the state of the global tin industry.
We have criticised Metals X in the past, which makes Brett an unlikely guest, but he leans straight into the tough topics. He walks through how a now $700m producer had to slim costs to one employee, capital allocation strategy, his views on the entire tin project pipeline, from the credible contenders to the ones that will never get built.
A candid, valuable episode.

What does it take to create billions in value – and reshape an industry? In this episode, industry veteran Mick McMullen shares lessons from the front lines of major deals and corporate strategy, with insights from his roles at Stillwater, Detour, and MAC Copper. With more than $10B in transactions under his belt, Mick discusses what drives successful mergers, what makes copper a battleground for value, and why some deals get done while others stall. We also get candid about shareholder activism – the art of pushing for change inside miner’s – and dig into the week’s biggest stories: Palliser urging Rio to bid for Teck Coeur’s “top of the market” move for New Gold Fresnillo’s cash play for Probe Gold This was recorded on 6.11.2025.

Ferg Cullen (aka Trader Ferg) joins us for a wide-angle look at the market’s many dynamics front of mind this week.

BHP, VALE, FMG, RIO, ZIM, SPD, THS.L, IMP.J, SBSW, VALT.L, MMI, CAY, BML, S32, UEC, UUUU, LEU, URA, GMKN.ME, NVDA, BP.L, SHEL.L

We continue our search for the world’s best natural-resource investors with today’s guest, Rob Mullin.
Rob is the Founder and CIO of Marathon Resource Advisors, a long-short fund that has compounded at extraordinary rates by doing what few others still do: buying real cash flow, not stories.
In this wide-ranging chat, Rob explains why gold stocks remain “super cheap” despite their strong run, why he’s finding his best ideas in overlooked European energy producers, and how he frames risk through volatility rather than avoiding it.
We dig into the structural forces reshaping the market, from the dominance of pod shops and passive flows to the slow return of generalist investors to resources. Rob also lays out why he believes tangible assets are set to outperform financial abstractions for years to come.
Along the way, he contrasts the speculative vibe economy of AI and crypto with the grounded reality of mining and energy cash flows, and why this cycle could belong to the real economy again.
