Episode 143: A conversation with Greg Beischer

Greg is the Chief Executive Officer and President of Alaska Energy Metals Corporation. Alaska Energy Metals Corporation (AEMC) is working on a large-scale nickel project in Central Alaska to safeguard America’s energy future, stemming from the heightened demand for electric vehicles (EV). The demand for nickel is skyrocketing because of its use in EV batteries. AEMC believes nickel will be the main limiting factor on America’s ability to transition fully to EVs because it is vulnerable to supply disruption of nickel and therefore must develop its own, domestic sources. Greg has forty years of experience. A geologist and mining engineer technologist by trade, Greg has studied everything from exploration to mineral extraction and environmental control. Greg’s natural business acumen led him to found Millrock Resources in 2007. Greg also previously worked with INCO Ltd, the world’s leading nickel producer and the Bristol Bay Native Corporation, where he forged connections across Alaska. Mr. Beischer is the past President of the Alaska Miner’s Association, sits on the Board of Alaska’s Resource Development Corporation, and serves on the Alaska Minerals Commission.
