On this episode of the Mining Minds podcast, we sit down with surveyor extraordinaire Leatha Reeves to explore her remarkable mining journey! Raised in small-town Nevada, Leatha chose to stay home instead of accepting a full-ride volleyball scholarship. Her journey began while waitressing at a local restaurant, where she was recruited to work at the mines as a surveyor, and she hasn’t looked back since.
Leatha shares her experiences of early underground mining in southern Nevada, the impactful relationships she has built over her 35-year career, and how she gained her vast knowledge and stellar reputation through sweat equity. She also discusses the exciting future of mining, influenced by gamers and technology, and how she inspired her daughter to join the industry. Leatha highlights why surveying is the best job, humorously noting that you get to tell people where to go and what to do! Join Mining Minds as we welcome Leatha Reeves to the podcast!
