Burson Buchanan had a busy #MiningIndaba2025, the conference where the great and good of the African mining industry convene for a 3-day event in sunny Cape Town in early February. Bobby Morse our leader and captain of the Diggers shares his account at this, his 10th year in attendance.

Barry Archer examines Norway and the UK – who both saw developments in their #EnergyTransition journeys through January 2025. The result of which provides valuable insights into the complexities of balancing green ambitions, economic realities, and the ongoing role of #oilandgas.

Bobby Morse, Senior Partner at Burson Buchanan talks about future consolidation and M&A in mining sector at Mining Indaba 2025 in Cape Town this week.   "I think consolidation is likely to be one of the main thematics of 2025. There's a lot more appetite for risk and improving portfolio of assets."    "Gold at almost US$2800/oz, base metals are performing and iron ore is stronger - the mood music is on a very good trajectory, which means a lot of M&A deals are beginning to happen with decent prices paid." #MergersAndAcquisitions #MiningIndaba2025 #MI25
