We're looking for the Explorer of the Year

MNN is seeking nominations from our readers for the 2020 Explorer of the Year

We're looking for the Explorer of the Year

One of four categories in the fourth annual MNN Awards, the explorer award recognises success in arguably the most important area of the mining sector.

The 2020 Explorer of the Year will recognise a company and its leadership team for a significant new discovery made, or advanced to a meaningful status, during the 2020 financial year.

The discovery's importance is likely to be reflected in the value of the company but we are also assessing the in-ground value of a resource/reserve, using current commodity prices, and currencies, etc.

We are taking into consideration resource(s)/reserve(s) reported during the year, connected to ‘recent' discoveries, and will examine aspects of discoveries such as relative technical difficulty and magnitude of any technical success or breakthrough; the greenfields/brownfields nature of discovery; the extent of predecessor(s) work that might have contributed to new discovery; and the relative application of exploration funds.

The Explorer of the Year is an ASX-listed company, or a privately-owned company, exploring in Australia or offshore.

Last year's winner was Bellevue Gold.

You can nominate your own company, a client or just an explorer you admire.

It only takes a minute to fill out the nomination form, which can be found here.

Nominations close on June 30. The shortlist of finalists will be announced in early July and will be profiled throughout the month before the winners are announced in late July/early August.
