He’s best known for transforming Silver Standard Resources from a tiny explorer with no assets into one of the largest silver companies in the world, and for founding Pretium Resources, which built the world-class Brucejack Mine in northern BC. Today, he’s the co-chair and driving force behind Dakota Gold, and one of the most respected leaders in the mining industry. In this episode, Bob and I discuss: • How he built (and kept) a loyal shareholder base for over 30 years • How he bought a house in Vancouver with $2,000 • How a geology degree led to building billion-dollar companies • The silver bet that took a decade to pay off (and why patience mattered) • Why he believes South Dakota could be America’s next great gold district • His views on AI, technology, and the next generation of mining leaders Follow Resource Insider: Twitter: https://twitter.com/Jamie_Keech YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@resourceinsider LinkedIn…
