In today’s episode, we're joined by Darryn Quayle, Vice President, Global Mining Sector Leader at Worley, someone with deep experience across government, engineering, and sustainable mining development. Darryn recently returned from an intense and insightful visit to Brazil, as part of the Global Investor Commission on Mining 2030, where he and other industry leaders met with investors managing more than $130 trillion in assets, alongside government representatives and even President Lula himself. In this conversation, we’ll unpack what happened during that visit, from the discussions in Brasilia and Belo Horizonte, to the moving experience of revisiting the Brumadinho disaster site nearly six years on. We’ll also explore how Worley and the wider mining community are working to align investor expectations, sustainability goals, and real-world project delivery — shaping the partnerships and principles that could define the future of responsible mining. Darryn is also going to be attending the upcoming Resourcing Tomorrow event - the premier gathering for the world’s mining leaders taking place in London from 2-4 December. What sets this event apart is its unmatched audience: C-level executives from the biggest mining companies worldwide, over 40 government ministers, leading mining technology providers, and many more mining professionals in the industry.

KEY TAKEAWAYS The meeting with President Lula and his cabinet emphasised the importance of aligning government initiatives with investor expectations and sustainability goals Revisiting the site of the Brumadinho disaster served as a poignant reminder of the catastrophic consequences of mining failures, reinforcing the need for fundamental change There is a strong emphasis on the need for the mining industry to adopt first-of-a-kind technologies that can reduce environmental impacts BEST MOMENTS "When we did the investor tailings safety initiative, there was a lack of understanding what a tailings dam was" "Returning to the site after six years was a very surreal experience... I knew that site back to front, particularly up to the latter stages of the geography of the area" "Success looks like reshaping that story... mining is absolutely capable of a fundamental paradigm shift."

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
