The appointment of Mark Cutifani as chair of the newly formed Energy Transition Metals Board with Vale Base Metals takes effect this month
A well-known former Sudbury mining executive is back in the news and is taking on a new role as chair of the newly formed Energy Transition Metals Board with Vale Base Metals, which calls itself one of the world's largest producers of responsibly-sourced nickel, copper, cobalt and platinum group metals.
As Cutifani settled into his new role this past week, he was noticed for his recent comments in The Financial Times in which he suggested the resources sector should take a more proactive role in educating “ignorant” academics, politicians and bureaucrats on the critical role the minerals sector plays in society.
Cutifani was reported speaking in Australia at the 2023 World Mining Congress held last week. Cutifani told delegates they “must explain how the raw materials we mine are literally the source of everything”.
