After a buoyant and busy start to 2020 in the mineral industry, global market conditions have suddenly become extremely tough with the outbreak of Coronavirus (COVID-19) and its global spread. Many countries have effectively closed their borders and financial markets have been in free fall. The minerals industry is hugely affected by the pandemic as exploration is curtailed and mining operations, particularly fly-in fly-out sites, are severely impacted. Many companies have established procedures to minimise the spread and impact of the virus by splitting up teams and working from home where possible.
