Evolving Mining for a Sustainable Energy Transition: ICMM CEO Rohitesh Dhawan in Conversation

Dan Barclay and Rohitesh Dhawan

“The world has woken up to the scale of our biodiversity crisis. And if we don’t urgently stop and halt and reverse the loss of nature, we are in for a really bad time as a planet. And so, given that mining is a nature-based industry, the world is rightly looking to ask to show leadership,” said Rohitesh Dhawan, CEO of the International Council on Mining and Metals (ICMM).


Dan Barclay, Chief Executive Officer of BMO Capital Markets, sat down with Rohitesh on the ground at our 32nd Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference.
