Interview with Nic Earner, Managing Director & CEO, Alkane ResourcesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/alkane-resources-asxalk-mid-tier-producer-born-from-strategic-mandalay-resources-merger-7637Recording date: 8th September 2025Alkane Resources has successfully completed its merger with Mandalay Resources, creating a debt-free gold producer targeting 160-175,000 ounces annually across three strategic mining jurisdictions. The combined entity operates mines in Australia (Tomingley & Costerfield), and Sweden (Björkdal), providing investors with geographic diversification and operational risk mitigation in an increasingly volatile global environment.The company has eliminated its Macquarie debt facility while allocating over $80 million toward growth capital and exploration programs. Managing Director Nic Earner emphasizes the integration challenges, noting the need to harmonize "distributed management structures and styles" while adapting to dual ASX and TSX reporting requirements for both Australian and North American investor bases.Alkane's three-asset portfolio offers compelling diversification benefits. Tomingley receives $50 million in growth capital for open-cut development, while Costerfield, the highest-grade operation producing 45-50,000 ounces annually, benefits from a $25 million exploration program targeting resource expansion. The Swedish Björkdal operation operates a substantial 1.4 million ton mill capacity, currently underutilized but positioned for expansion.The elevated gold price environment has fundamentally transformed mine economics, enabling access to previously uneconomical mineralization. As Earner notes, "there may be mineralization at a different price you would not have bothered with, whereas now you're getting it."Looking ahead, Alkane maintains disciplined acquisition criteria, requiring any new development to achieve production by 2027. The company targets three M&A categories: merger-of-equals transactions, developers requiring capital for near-production assets, and distressed producers facing capital constraints. With proven operational excellence—missing guidance only once in 14 years—and a clear path to exceeding 180,000 annual ounces through organic growth, Alkane positions itself as a consolidation leader in the sector's ongoing transformation.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/alkane-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The analyst sees LYC is priced for perfection, with little room for error, highlighting FY25 had higher depreciation which drove a miss on results, however, does recognise that the current themes pushing LYC higher are likely to persist as tailwinds over the short term.And Trading Central has identified a bearish signal on Breville Group (ASX:BRG) following the formation of a pattern over a period of 33-days which is roughly the same amount of time the share price may fall from the close of $30.89 to the range of $25 - $26.25 according to standard principles of technical analysis.

Benchmark US equity indices booked fresh record highs - Dow gained +196-points or +0.43% to 45,711.34.

In the US, Wall Street advanced overnight, with all 3 of the key indexes in the green. The Dow Jones ended the day 0.25% higher, the S&P500 gained 0.21%, while the tech heavy nasdaq was the biggest winner, advancing 0.45% - mainly driven by a solid start to the week from giants Nvidia and Microsoft.Europe also saw gains overnight – the stoxx600 closed 0.52% higher, the FTSE gained 0.14%, the French CAC saw a 0.78% increase, while the German Dax took the biggest step, ending the day up 0.89%.Locally yesterday, the September sell-down continued as the ASX200 fell another 0.24% to open the new trading week. With 8 of the 11 key sectors in the red, information technology was one of the few areas gaining any traction, driven by a 6% rally for Life360 (ASX:360), and a 1.9% jump for Wisetech Global (ASX:WTC).What to watch today:Looking ahead to today, despite the rally overseas the ASX is set to fall further, with SPI futures indicating a 0.35% decline at the open.In commodities, Gold remains the biggest story as it hit a fresh all time high on Monday crossing the $3600 US dollars per ounce threshold for the first time. It is currently trading up 1.15%, at 3634 us dollars and 10 cents per ounce. Demand for gold continues to grow primarily from the economic data coming out of the US – as data showed that unemployment has reached its highest level since 2021, while fewer jobs than expected were added in August.Crude oil is also trading higher, up 0.9% to 62 us dollars and 43 cents per barrel, while iron ore is trading 0.42% higher at 104 us dollars and 93 cents per tonne.Trading Ideas:Bell Potter has placed a speculative buy rating on biotechnology company PYC Therapeutics (ASX:PYC), with a target price of $2.30 per share. At the current share price of $1.25 per share, this implies a 12 month return of nearly 85%.Bell Potter has maintained their hold rating on Solvar Limited (ASX:SVR), with the 12 month price target of $1.70 implying just a 3% growth on the current share price of $1.65 per share.

In the latest episode of The New CEO Toolkit podcast, hosted by WOB member Adelle Howse of Howse River, our very own Claire Braund OAM, CEO and WOB co-founder shares the story of co-founding WOB and driving lasting change in board diversity.

She opens up about the challenges faced early on, from systemic barriers and outdated attitudes to fears about opening up board opportunitie and the bold strategies that shifted the tide: ·       Calling out poor practices and demanding accountability. ·       Publishing transparent data that spotlighted both leaders and laggards. ·       Flipping the search model to make board vacancies visible and accessible. ·       Backing women with tools and confidence to step into leadership. Claire also talks candidly about the personal cost of building a movement, the importance of cultural diversity in today's boardrooms, and her advice to the next generation of leaders - be strategic, stay tenacious and be kind to yourself along the way.

August reporting season was a rollercoaster but it didn't stop the momentum that has been pushing the ASX higher in 2025.  There were shock sell-offs, steady beats, and a very strong showing from small caps. To help make sense of it, Livewire spoke with small cap stock picker Chris Stott from 1851 Capital, and our very own Kerry Sun, who spends his days hunting for insights from announcements, broker notes and market moves to share with readers on Market Index and Livewire. This episode of The Rules of Investing was a little different. We unpacked the big themes and surprising stats, dug into the drivers of small-cap strength, and finished off by handing out five light-hearted reporting season awards - from the Stephen Bradbury Award (for the company everyone had written off) to the Sir Alex Ferguson Award (for standout management).    ________________________ Thanks to our Sponsor AlphaSense This latest episode is brought to you by AlphaSense.

In this episode, Tony and Cameron sit down with John Abernethy, veteran investor and founder of Clime Investment Management, for an in-depth conversation about value investing, funds management, and the evolution of Australia's financial industry.

He explains how Clime evolved into a $1.6 billion multi-asset manager, why self-funding companies like Nick Scali are rare gems, and the challenges of today's funds management environment.
