Whitehaven's Big Bet (Paul Flynn)
Paul Flynn has spent 13 years building Whitehaven Coal into one of Australia's most consequential resources companies. He's joined us to share the story.
From a deal many considered one of the best in recent mining history, to the structural shift in coal's floor price, to why India is quietly becoming the world's most important met coal growth market, we're excited to share our conversation with one of the sector's most respected operators.
Paul also takes on Queensland's royalty regime and what it really means for capital allocation in Australian resources.
If you have any interest in coal, commodities, or how world-class resource businesses actually get built, you'll enjoy this.
