Alison Paul: OceanaGold Senior Vice President on Shane Jones mining ambitions

Resources Minister Shane Jones wants to double mining exports by 2035, claiming it will let the country reach three billion dollars in mineral exports by 2035.

It comes as Coal and gold have been added to the critical minerals list in New Zealand in the hopes we can double our mineral exports in a decade.

The proposal is bringing in questions of sustainability, while also positive projections for jobs.

OceanaGold Senior Vice President Alison Paul joins the show.
