Dr. Guthrie also has extensive past and current experience serving on the boards of several prominent ASX-listed companies, including Santos Ltd, Orica Ltd and Lynas Rare Earths Ltd.  She is a former chair of Minerals Council of Australia and a current board member of Infrastructure Australia. Her contribution to the mining and resources industry was recognized in 2017, via the award of an Honorary Doctor of Science degree from Curtin University, where she is now Chancellor Elect, for her contribution to sustainability, innovation, and policy leadership in the resources industry. In 2021 she was also made an Officer of the Order of Australia for distinguished service to the minerals and resources sector, and as a role model for women in business.  Dr. Guthrie has a PhD in Geology, as well as qualifications in law, environment, and business management.
