This episode concludes our two-part feature interview with Rob McEwen, chairman and chief owner of McEwen Mining, in conversation with Northern Miner publisher Anthony Vaccaro, recorded live on the sidelines of the Silver & Gold Summit in San Francisco in late October 2018.

Rob and Anthony continue their freewheeling conversation, touching on topics including: innovation in the mining industry; Peter Munk’s legacy; the generosity of mining companies and the philanthropy of mining execs in Toronto; and the need for more rationality in developing Canada’s resource industries in order to support wealth creation in wider society.
