Join our host and journalist Robin Stickley as she digs into some fascinating conversations about what, how, and Why We Mine. Think about it - practically everything around you that isn’t born or grown is mined. The toothpaste you brush with every morning, the vehicle you use to get around, even the screen you’re reading this on right now contain minerals extracted from the earth. As the climate warms and we race for sustainable solutions, we know you’re asking questions: How can mining help us hit our emissions targets by 2050? How do we continue to build an inclusive workforce and prosperous communities? How will we sustainably mine enough copper for the all the electric cars? Robin explores the answers and takes a closer look at Canada’s innovative mining technologies and community-driven approaches to ensure a sustainable future for everyone.

When was the last time you stopped to think about all of the components that make up every single product you use each day? From the device you’re reading an email on to your favorite kitchen appliance, mining touches every aspect of your life. And yet, so often we don’t connect the importance of the products of mining to our modern existence. Is it time to rethink our attitude towards mining? We talk to Professor Brett Gilley, also known as the “GeoDude,” about how the natural world supports our everyday lives, and Greg Brouwer, Teck's Senior Vice President of Technology and Innovation, about how mining companies are evolving to ensure the industry meets the technological demands of the present and the future.
