The Editorial Team
Chris Hinde, Editorial Director
Chris qualified as a Mining Engineer (with a BSc and PhD) from the University of Wales, Cardiff. He joined Anglo American Corp in South Africa, and worked for a few years at its Western Deep Levels gold mine. He subsequently worked for two consultancy companies (in South Africa with Johannesburg-based SRK, and in the UK with Maidenhead-based Golder Associates). Projects undertaken included work on a diamond mine in Botswana, and lengthy overseas assignments in Malaysia and Turkey.
Chris joined the editorial staff of Mining Journal in 1984, leaving 30 months later to join the stockbroking subsidiary of Schroder Merchant Bank as a mining analyst. He rejoined the Mining Journal team at the end of 1987, and was later appointed Editorial Director of Mining Journal Ltd (subsequently renamed Mining Communications Ltd, and now Aspermont UK).
