Join host Emily King and guest Frank Mariage in a discussion on mining investments, mining law, and the most famous mining scandal in history, Bre-X.
For this episode of On the Rocks, host Emily King is joined by Frank Mariage, a partner at Fasken Law, in a discussion on mining investments, mining law, and the biggest mining scandal in history!
The discussion begins with investing in different mining jurisdictions, what to look for when investing in "riskier" areas, and how data can help attract investment. Frank talks us through his journey into mining law and his favorite parts of working with the mining industry.
While we had a lawyer on the microphone, of course mining's most famous scandal had to be talked about! Emily and Frank consider how Bre-X shook the mining industry, but also paved the way for NI 43-101 technical reports.
