Our sixth guest is Lucy is the ESG & Sustainability Manager for Cornish Lithium, a company exploring for lithium in Cornwall, UK.
She holds a degree in Earth Sciences from Oxford University, and a Masters in Mining Geology from the Camborne School of Mines with a background in grassroots exploration, and started her career exploring for base metals in Morocco and Ethiopia.
She is a strong advocate for the standardisation of sustainable and responsible practices in mining, promoting these actions to the wider public, and is passionate about making the industry a more diverse place to work. She has been on the committee for Young Mining Professionals London since its inception, and is heavily involved in Women in Mining UK.
In 2019, Lucy did a TEDx talk on ‘Mining our way to a low carbon future’ which has been well received. During this talk, she explained the role of the mining industry in the Energy Transition.
During our conversation Lucy will comment on how the mining industry satisfied her passion for science, travelling and knowing more about the world that we live in. Lucy wasn't sure about what she wanted to develop her career in but attending an event featured by Women in Mining UK helped her with her decision.
