Some environments are simply too harsh for traditional power sources. Solar panels fail in darkness, batteries die quickly, and diesel can't reach. That's where Zeno Power comes in. The company is pioneering nuclear batteries, compact systems that recycle radioactive waste into safe, reliable power for years at a time.On this episode of Valley of Depth, I'm joined by Tyler Bernstein, co-founder and CEO of Zeno Power. We trace the journey from a Vanderbilt classroom project to a venture-backed company with $70M in private capital, $60M+ in NASA and DoD contracts, and a working nuclear prototype.

PolarX (ASX: PXX) has just struck a far-out deal with Northern Star Resources that will see the gold giant spend up to 60-million Australian dollars for a stake in up to 70% in PolarX's Alaska Range Project. Mark Bojanjac is a Chartered Accountant with almost 30 years' direct experience in developing resource companies. He was a founding director of a public company which discovered one of Australia's highest grade gold mines at East-Kundana near Kalgoorlie in WA and managing director of an unlisted public company which successfully developed a 2.4Moz gold resource in Mongolia. He was previously CEO of Adamus Resources Limited, where he oversaw its advancement from an early stage exploration project through definitive feasibility studies and managed the debt and equity financing to build its successful Ghanaian gold mine. He was also formerly a Non-Executive Director of QLD silica sand developer, Metallica Minerals Limited and is currently a director of WA resources explorer, Kula Gold Limited.

Northern Star to Invest up to $60M for 70% of Alaska Range PolarX has secured a landmark farm-in agreement with Northern Star Resources (ASX: NST), giving Northern Star the right to earn up to 70% of the Alaska Range Project by spending $60 million. This partnership validates the project's scale and potential. 2. High-Grade Copper and Gold Resource with 70% IRR The Caribou Dome deposit within the Alaska Range has delivered scoping study results showing an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of ~70% (based on metals prices two years ago), underlining its strong economics and global significance as one of the highest-grade undeveloped copper projects in the USA. 3. Exploration Upside Along 35km Strike Length PolarX controls an under-explored 35km mineralised corridor, including soil anomalies up to 11km by 8km in size. Northern Star's backing allows for big-company exploration programs—geophysics, helicopter surveys, and systematic drilling—that were previously unaffordable for PolarX. 4. Strategic Positioning in Critical Minerals With copper recently added to the US Critical Minerals List, PolarX's Alaskan copper-gold assets are strategically aligned with America's push for secure, domestic supply. The jurisdictional advantage of being in the USA enhances the project's attractiveness to global investors. 5. 100% Ownership of Humboldt Range in Nevada Outside the Alaska JV, PolarX retains full ownership of the Humboldt Range Project in Nevada, located next to major heap-leach gold and silver operations such as Florida Canyon and Rochester. Drill-ready and surrounded by multimillion-ounce deposits, Humboldt represents a second growth pillar for the company.

He leads a top-ranked team representing buyers and sellers of distinguished properties throughout the Hampton Roads area.

How creative financing strategies like seller financing, VA assumptions, and multi-note structures open doors in today's high-rate market.

It's frustrating pouring money into savings or the stock market only to watch inflation quietly chip away at it, year after year. The dream of financial freedom starts to feel out of reach when everything you try either feels too risky or too complicated. Real estate sounds promising, but the idea of tenants, repairs, and 2 a.m. phone calls quickly kills the vibe. What people really want is something steady, something that grows in the background without taking over their lives—and it's hard to shake the feeling that such a thing should exist by now.

Here's what to watch for at this month's global plastics treaty talksNegotiators from more than 170 countries are arriving in Geneva, Switzerland, this week to resume discussions over the United Nations plastics treaty, eight months after they missed their original deadline for finalizing the pact. Many delegates, advocacy groups, and U.N. officials are hopeful that the 10-day session will result in a final agreement that delivers on the U.N.'s objective to “end plastic pollution.” But progress has been slow at each of the five preceding sessions, in large part due to a consensus-based decision-making structure that has allowed oil-producing countries to obstruct progress.

What if we told you that Michael Dell—yes, the tech billionaire—still worries about cash flow? In this eye-opening episode, Elizabeth Gore, co-founder of Hello Alice, shatters conventional wisdom while revealing why 1.5 million entrepreneurs trust her platform. Gore exposes uncomfortable truths: growth can actually kill your business, traditional credit scores are broken, and every business needs six months of operating expenses banked—not the typical three most advisors recommend.

Story of the Week (DR):The Baby Billionaire Bromance is Over: Savannah Guthrie Says Elon Musk and Donald Trump Are 'Giving 7th Grade Girl' as President Says Tesla CEO 'Has Lost His Mind'"It's so confusing isn't it? So much going wrong, so much to say, and all of it happening so quickly. The pace of oppression outstrips our ability to understand it. And that is the real trick of the Imperial thought machine.”BlackRock removed from Texas boycott list after quitting climate groupsIn a notable reversal, Texas removed BlackRock from its investment blacklistThis decision followed BlackRock's withdrawal from several climate-focused initiatives, including the Net Zero Asset Managers alliance and Climate Action 100+Texas Comptroller Glenn Hegar cited these actions, along with BlackRock's support for the new Texas Stock Exchange, as reasons for the delisting.“More than $4 billion in Texas funds are invested with BlackRock,” the rep said.The Larry Fink-led company had $11.55 trillion in assets under management at the end of the fourth quarter in 2024.0.0346% Is that possible?Larry Fink; $31M; $11M bonus: “These amounts represent the discretionary annual cash Bonuses … The amount of incentive compensation awarded … was based on subjective criteria”“Lead in a changing world: Completed the creation of a more modern and unified Corporate Affairs function and leveraged the function to refresh the firm's corporate narrative and strengthen its brand.”“Corporate sustainability: Achieved BlackRock's 100% renewable electricity match goal and enhanced the Company's approach to procuring market solutions.”32% said NO on Pay (BlackRock owns 6% of BlackRock)99% said NO to Bowyer Research's theatrical request for a report on “risks related to a perceived shift away from a traditional understanding of fiduciary responsibility to stakeholder capitalism, implied by its assent to the Business Roundtable's Statement on the Purpose of a Corporation, as well as a high-profile embrace of ESG and DEI.”BlackRock CEO Larry Fink has some words of wisdom for leaders navigating the age of populism and social media: Watch what you say: "You have to be a lot more guarded. I can't say everything I really want to say to all of you right now. The reality is you have to be a lot more systematic in what you say and how you say it internally or externally. I mean, we live in a terrarium today. We live in a glass bottle."Big brands are pulling back on Pride merchandise and events this year MMCorporate America Pulls Back from PRIDE in 2025, No Rainbow Logos from Big Brands as June StartsUnitedHealth Group AGM:94% average director support93% Stephen HemsleyHemsley is stepping forward to acknowledge the fallout and chart a new course, promising a comprehensive review of some of the company's most controversial practices.The Wall Street Journal noted in its report on the company's annual shareholder meeting on Monday that Hemsley apologized for UnitedHealth's recent performance and cited a need to rethink many internal processes.99% for directors like Paul Garcia (2021/ former CEO of Global Payments) and Kristen Gil (2022/former VP, Business Finance Officer at Alphabet)92% for Michele Hooper (2007/Lead Independent Director/CEO of The Directors' Council, a private company she co-founded in 2003 that works with corporate boards to increase their independence, effectiveness and diversity)-12% gender influence gap/only 3 women/zero committee chairs)Lowest vote is John Noseworthy, M.D. (86%) former CEO of the Mayo Clinic40% NO on PaySHP excessive golden parachutes 13% YESThe board authorized the payment of a cash dividend of $2.21 per share, up from the prior dividend of $2.10, to be paid June 24 to common stock shareholders of record as of the close of business June 16Hemsley: as of the proxy date: $2.8M (as of 5/16: $3.8M)The previous dividend was $2.10 per share, paid on March 18, 2025The company also suspended its 2025 outlook.Goodliest of the Week (MM/DR):DR: The Trump EPA tried to bury some good newsA climate report acquired by a Freedom of Information Act request shows that U.S. climate pollution declined in 2023.The EPA report documents that in 2023, U.S. climate pollution fell by 2.3%. That's about 147 million metric tons, or MMT, of reduced carbon dioxide-equivalent greenhouse gases.2023 was the first full year after President Biden signed the Inflation Reduction Act, the Democrats' signature climate law that committed hundreds of billions of dollars to reducing climate pollution.DR: How a Peruvian farmer's legal defeat raised new risks for companies DRPeruvian farmer Saúl Luciano Lliuya filed a lawsuit against German energy company RWE, asserting that the company's greenhouse gas emissions contributed to the melting of glaciers near his hometown of Huaraz, Peru.This glacial melt increases the risk of flooding from Lake Palcacocha, threatening his community. Lliuya sought approximately $17,500 from RWE, representing 0.47% of the estimated $4 million needed for flood defenses, corresponding to RWE's estimated share of global emissions since the industrial era began. On May 28, 2025, the Higher Regional Court in Hamm, Germany, dismissed Lliuya's lawsuit. The court acknowledged the legal principle that major greenhouse gas emitters can be held liable for climate-related damages. However, it concluded that the specific threat to Lliuya's property was not sufficiently imminent to warrant compensation. While Lliuya did not secure the compensation sought, the court's recognition of potential corporate liability for climate damages sets a precedent. This acknowledgment may influence future climate litigation, encouraging individuals and communities to hold major emitters accountable for their contributions to climate change.MM: HahahahahahahahahaMusk says SpaceX will decommission Dragon spacecraft after Trump threatElon Musk Melts Down, Claims Trump Is In The "Epstein Files" and That's the Reason They Haven't Been ReleasedElon Musk Declares That He's "Immediately" Cutting Off NASA's Access to SpaceMusk Privately Complaining That His Immense Donations to Trump Didn't Even Buy Him Control of NASAElon Musk claims ‘without me, Trump would have lost the election'Assholiest of the Week (MM): Proxy advisorsZevra TherapeuticsISS added, “...the board's concerns about having a former CEO on the board and potential disruption are valid.”Out of 92,594 active directors in MSCI data from February, 3,123 are tagged as “former executives” at the company they're on the board of522 US companies are on the list - FIVE HUNDRED AND TWENTY TWOThat includes at least one company - National Healthcare Corp - with FOUR former executives on the boardIt also includes 104 large cap companies - like Hewlett Packard, with 3 former execs!Glass Lewis highlighted, “Mr. Regan has limited, dated, and unrelated public board service,”Egan-Jones also questioned the relevant expertise of Mangless' nominees, stating, “…we do not believe Mr. Regan's background in proxy solicitation offers meaningful value in the context of Zevra's boardroom.”Unrelated public board experience??
