Episode 66: A Canadian mining discussion ft. Barrick & Goldcorp

Matt and Lesley are preparing to head north for the Yukon media mining tour later in the week! As such, we have some amazing content from our Canadian Mining Symposium in London to carry us through this week's episode. In fact, we're featuring the headline discussion at the event between Goldcorp's (TSX: G; NYSE: GG) David Garofalo and Barrick Gold's (TSX: ABX; NYSE: ABX) Kelvin Dushnisky. It's moderated by Greg Huffman, who is the managing director and global head of mining sales at Canaccord Genuity. We dig into a wide-ranging discussion that touches on many important topics across the mining industry, including things like innovation, water usage, exploration, and partnerships on large-scale projects. In addition, we get to hear a little bit about funding exploration and how Goldcorp and Barrick view their investments, and partnerships, in junior miners!
