Michael Lion - Everwell Resources Ltd (GBR)

Since my first Convention in Zurich in 1967, I have attended close to 100 worldwide in fabulous settings, with memorable parties, new and old contacts, and enduring friendships. But from my many BIR memories, I would select the unique 2021 “Bash in Brussels”. Held during a tiny window amid Covid, it was inevitably a small gathering but charmingly intimate, featuring our first hybrid live/broadcast edition of “The Challenge”, with The Three Amigos and special guest George Adams. This Convention uniquely captured and reflected the remarkable resilience of both our industry and BIR itself during those difficult times. Thanks to this, we became stronger.
