In this episode we chat to Chris Byrne, Managing Director of Legacy Minerals who are exploring for high grade gold, copper, and base metal deposits in the World Class Lachlan Fold Belt, NSW, Australia
Chris and an electrical and environmental background and started his career with Anglo American in the coalfields of NSW and QLD and has been at the helm of Legacy Minerals since 2017 and gives us an overview of the company and their journey so far and what they are looking to achieve. He talks about their exciting Bauloora Project, Fontenoy Project and Black Range project and why New South Wales is the hidden gem of Australia’s mining industry.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

The salaries of the Australian mining sector were attractive enough to compel many to join the industry back in the day. Most remained, as did Chris, whose experience has grown and flourished.
Being reared in the mining industry is enough to give anyone a real sense of how systems, processes and business combine to create real growth.
Legacy are focussed on fundamental stocks, and as a result are seeing great results across the board. Legacy even invests in the AI space.
New South Wales produces some of the finest mining deposits in the world, including two very successful gold mines. It's a safe jurisdiction to work in, and promotes mining.
