Deshnee Naidoo, who until March led Vale Base Metals , the mining giant’s energy transition metals business, sat down with MINING.COM’s Devan Murugan to discuss her move to Canada, the areas where she sees the local mining industry excelling, the areas where is lagging and the reasons for leaving her latest position.
Regarding the state of Canada’s mining sector, Naidoo says that while the country is rich in mineral reserves, it is not maximizing production. She emphasizes the need for improved competitiveness and productivity to unlock the full potential of these resources.
