Many hands helped create the Cave Mining Forum. In the spirit of community we are creating, here is what a few of them had to say about this new platform.
When Jarek Jakubec approached me about supporting development of the new Cave Mining Forum, my colleagues and I in communications and marketing at SRK jumped at the chance. It’s easy to see how the forum will quickly grow to be a useful resource for practitioners from all aspects of cave mining. That growth will come as a direct result of members engaging with each other, making it a truly authentic forum experience.
Aaron Fultz
Principal Communications Advisor, SRK Consulting
Starting out in an industry is difficult; this is particularly true about finding the right mentors that help your technical expertise grow and are happy to not only share their knowledge, but encourage you to have thoughtful and meaningful discussion. Mentorship has been crucial for my career and I am really excited to be part of the Cave Mining Forum, which will help others access this kind of support from anywhere in the world.
Diana sellier-gomez
Senior Consultant, SRK Consulting
As a marketing professional in the mining industry, I’m proud to contribute to a platform where industry experts can connect, share insights, and strengthen our community. Being part of this initiative not only enhances the profession but also gives me a deep sense of fulfillment, knowing that I’m giving back to an industry I’ve dedicated almost nine years to.
