Tim Treadgold

Commodities Journalist

Tim Treadgold has been reporting on the Australian resources sector since the nickel boom of the late 1960s after a brief, but unspectacular, stint studying geology, which clashed with an opportunity to enter the world of journalism. Over the past 40 years, he has written for publications including AFR, Reuters, Forbes, Mining Journal and The West Australian.

He writes a fortnightly column for Eureka Report, with a special focus on mining and oil stocks, and tracks the perpetual motion game of supply chasing demand, whether of fossil fuels or of future-facing commodities.
