AME Podcast: Exploration Matters - Ep. #9 - Help Wanted: Seeking Mining's Future Workforce.

On the AME Podcast: Exploration Matters today we revisit an important topic: training, attracting and retaining the workers needed to find and extract the minerals and metals critical to our future. How will we develop the human resources we need to supply the mineral resources essential to a low-carbon future? First, we speak with Aubree Barnum, Vice President, Human Resources, Lithium Americas Corp., a growing company with advancing lithium projects in Argentina and Nevada, who is looking to expand its workforce. Next, we chat with Shaun Barker, Director of the Mineral Deposit Research Unit at The University of British Columbia, who shares some concerning statistics about declining enrolments in university-level earth sciences courses.
