Recently for our book club we read Ralph Ellison's Invisible Man. Originally published in the 1950s, it's considered a classic of American literature, though it rarely makes the rounds in most online book spaces these days.

Empire Energy Group Ltd (ASX:EEG, OTC:EEGUF) managing director Alex Underwood talked with Proactive's Tylah Tully about the Carpentaria Pilot Project and its latest developments in the prolific Beetaloo Basin. Underwood highlighted that the company had received environmental approval from the Northern Territory Government for its Environmental Management Plan. This is critical as Empire Energy moves into pilot production, which includes the drilling of more wells and the installation of a gas processing plant. Discussing the new Carpentaria 5H well, Underwood explained that it would be the largest well the company has drilled to date. He stated, “We are obviously very excited about the prospect of starting to generate revenue… The primary goal of the program is to be able to produce these wells over longer time periods, so we can get a good sense of how they produce over time.” Empire Energy plans to install a gas processing plant and commence gas sales during the dry season in early Q2 of next year. The company has also estimated its gas resources at approximately 5.00 trillion cubic feet, demonstrating the commercial potential of its asset in the Beetaloo Sub-Basin. #ProactiveInvestors #EmpireEnergy #ASX #OTC #CarpentariaPilotProject #EnvironmentalApproval #GasExploration #BeetalooBasin #NorthernTerritory #EnergyProjects #ASXNews #OilAndGas #GasProcessing #EnergyMarket #NaturalGas #McArthurPipeline #JobCreation #ManufacturingResurgence #GasSales #EnergyDevelopment #AustraliaEnergy #PetroleumAct #EnergyIndustry

While some lament the recent growth of the Halloween tradition in Australia, residents in Exmouth have been celebrating the holiday for decades thanks to the strong presence of the US military in the town between the 1960s to early 90s. 

Empire Energy Group Ltd managing director Alex Underwood sits down with Proactive's Jonathan Jackson after the company secured Ensign Rig 965 to drill the Carpentaria-5H well on exploration permit (EP) 187, part of the Carpentaria Project in the Beetaloo Basin, Northern Territory. The company has also contracted Halliburton to conduct fracturing and stimulation activities using a 44,000 hydraulic horsepower (HHP) fracking fleet, significantly more powerful than previous operations at Carpentaria. The drilling will target a 3,000-metre horizontal section in the Velkerri B Shale with 60 fracture stimulation stages. Empire expects to begin drilling in late October 2024. Pilot production sales are planned for mid-2025, with flow test results anticipated in Q1 2025. The company aims to install surface facilities to facilitate the sale of test gas into the McArthur River Pipeline. These developments follow a successful capital raising and the progress of design and engineering works. Empire will use a 5.5-inch casing to enhance fracture stimulation rates, potentially increasing productivity. Surface facility installation is on track for Q2 2025, subject to regulatory approvals, which are well advanced. #ProactiveInvestors #ASX #EmpireEnergy #CarpentariaProject #BeetalooBasin #EP187 #OilAndGas #NaturalGas #Fracking #HydraulicFracturing #EnergyProduction #Halliburton #EnsignRig965 #VelkerriShale #PilotProduction #GasSales #CapitalRaising #SurfaceFacilities #TestGas #DrillingOperations #AustralianEnergy #EnergySector #GasPipeline #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Empire Energy Group Ltd (ASX:EEG, OTC:EEGUF) managing director Alex Underwood joins Jonathan Jackson in the Proactive studio after the company signed a binding, 10-year gas sales agreement with the Northern Territory Government to supply 25 terajoules (TJ) of gas per day from the Carpentaria Pilot Project in the Beetaloo Basin. This agreement, commencing in 2025, covers up to 25 TJ of gas daily, amounting to approximately 75 petajoules over 10 years. It includes an option to increase supply by an additional 10 TJ per day for up to 10 years if production exceeds 100 TJ per day. Underwood, highlighted the company's long-term commitment to the Beetaloo Basin, which has been in development since 2011 with significant support from the Northern Territory Government since 2018. He also emphasised the importance of this agreement for the energy security of the Territory, predicting it will attract substantial investment, create jobs, support local businesses and generate revenue for traditional owners and the government. The agreement stipulates that gas will be delivered to the Power and Water Corporation-operated McArthur River Gas pipeline on an ex-field take-or-pay basis at competitive prices indexed to the Consumer Price Index. The option for additional supply will be priced slightly lower. The agreement is subject to a final investment decision for the Carpentaria project and various regulatory approvals, which are in advanced stages. Empire Energy plans to start gas sales from Carpentaria's EP187 licence in mid-2025. #ProactiveInvestors #EmpireEnergy #ASX #GasSalesAgreement, #NorthernTerritory, #BeetalooBasin, #CarpentariaPilotProject, #EnergySupply, #Investment, #LocalJobs, #NTGovernment, #EnergySecurity, #AlexUnderwood, #TraditionalOwners, #NTBusinesses, #EconomicGrowth, #GasProduction, #PipelineCapacity, #MarketCompetitivePrices, #ConsumerPriceIndex, #RegulatoryApprovals, #GasDelivery #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

On a remote island in the Gulf of Carpentaria, there are two towns. One is home to a thriving economy. It has a golf course, cinema and tennis courts. It's the richest postcode in the Northern Territory. Most of the people who live there are white. The other is home to the Anindilyakwa people - the Traditional Owners. The locals live just a few hundred metres from the world's largest manganese mine. Here, life outcomes are worse than anywhere else in the country.  This jarring contrast raises questions about where the royalties of this mine are flowing – and why the Traditional Owners are seeing so little return to their community. Now, the National Indigenous Australians Agency has referred the white chief executive of the Anindilyakwa Land Council to the National Anti-Corruption Commission over his plan to take a personal 10 per cent stake in a mining project on the island. Today, Gunaikurnai and Wotjobaluk writer Ben Abbatangelo on the plan and the man who stood in its way.

Mokuhanga has the ability to take the artist or craftsperson anywhere they would like to be. From the subject matter in their studio to physical movement around the world, teaching, exploring, and discovering. Wonder and beauty is what makes mokuhanga so special.   In this episode of The Unfinished Print, I speak with printmaker Jacqueline Gribbin, who has spent years honing her craft in mokuhanga and other printmaking techniques across Japan, Southeast Asia, and Australia. We discuss her deep connection with Indigenous communities, collaborating with the late Ralph Kiggell, and exploring the nuances of water-based and oil-based mokuhanga. Jaqueline explains her experiences traveling to isolated communities, conducting workshops, and sharing her passion for printmaking. We'll explore her teaching methods, the importance of community in her work, and how she balances creating and selling her prints.   Please follow The Unfinished Print and my own mokuhanga work on Instagram @andrezadoroznyprints or email me at theunfinishedprint@gmail.com  Notes: may contain a hyperlink. Simply click on the highlighted word or phrase. Artists works follow after the note if available. Pieces are mokuhanga unless otherwise noted. Dimensions are given if known. Print publishers are given if known. Jacqueline Gribbin - website  Shifting Tides (2022) Nagasawa Art Park (MI Lab) Awaji City - Nagasawa Art Park was an artist-in-residence program located in Awaji City, Hyōgo Prefecture, Japan. It was open for 12 years before evolving into MI Lab in 2012. More info, here.    Keiko Kadota (1942-2017) - was the director of Nagasawa Art Park at Awaji City from 1997-2011, and then of MI Lab at Lake Kawaguchi from 2011 until her passing.   Toru Ueba - was a print instructor at Nagasawa Art Park, and was one of Yoonmi's instructors in 2004.   Ralph Kiggell (1960-2022) -  was one of the most important mokuhanga practitioners. Originally from England, Ralph lived and worked in Thailand. Ralph pushed the boundaries of mokuhanga with extremely large pieces, jigsaw carving, and by using fantastic colour. He also worked with the International Mokuhanga Conference to promote mokuhanga around the world. He will be greatly missed. Ralph's work can be found, here. His obituary in The Guardian can be found, here. His interview with The Unfinished Print can be found, here.     Orange Flower On Blue    Hiroki Satake - is a mokuhanga printmaker, and instructor based in Japan. He has taught at MI Lab, as well as given demonstrations regarding tool sharpening, around the world. Instagram   赤絵（アンドレ・マルティ「狼よ！」より) (2022) 34.7cm×28.4cm   registration - there are several registration methods in mokuhanga. The traditional method is called the kentō registration, where you carve two notches, straight another an "L." There is also a "floating kentō," which is where the notches are cut in a piece of "L" shaped wood and not on the wood where you are cutting your image, hence "floating." Lastly, there are removable "pins," such as ones made by Ternes Burton.    bokashi - is a mokuhanga technique, where the pigment fades from a heavy colour to a softer, broad colour. Made famous by prints designed by Hokusai and Hiroshige, this technique is, for me, the most popular technique utilized by  mokuhanga printmakers. There are various types: Ichimoji-bokashi or straight line graduation, used in the above mentioned Hiroshige and Hokusai prints. Ichimoji-mura-bokashi or straight line gradation with uneven edge. Ō-bokashi or wide gradation, Ate-nashi-bokashi or gradation without definition. Futa-iro-bokashi or two tone gradation, and ita-bokashi or softer-edge gradation, where the block is cut in a specific way to achieve this style of gradation. All of these styles of bokashi technique take practice and skill but are very much doable. Below is a fine example of bokashi by Paul Binnie:     The Torii Gate at Miyajima (2009) 37.5 x 26cm sizing paper - at times mokuhanga printmakers will size their paper. Size is made from water, animal glue (rabbit, horse), and alum. What the size does is keep the pigments the artist uses from “bleeding” into the outer edges of the paper. There are many recipes of size, here is one that artist Walter J. Phillips used.   intaglio printing - is a printing method, also called etching, using metal plates such as zinc, and copper, creating “recessed” areas which are printed with ink on the surface of these "recesses.” More info, here. The MET has info, here.     serigraphy - is another word for the art of silk screen printing. Silk screen printing can be in on various materials, silk, canvas, paper.    lithography: A printing process where images are transferred onto a surface using a flat plate or stone.   Yoshitaka Amano (b. 1952) - is a character designer for the Final Fantasy video game series. He uses ukiyo-e and Japanese woodblock prints as insirpation for some of his work.    Takashi Murakami (b. 1962) is a contemporary artist best known for his fine art works and contributions to the commercial market. His works are heavily influenced by manga and anime, characterized by their bright colors and distinctive style. Multicolour Superflat Flowers - archival pigment print, silkscreen, 45 cm x 17.7cm   Margaret Thatcher 1925-2013) -  was the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1979 to 1990. She was the first woman to hold the office and remains one of the most influential figures in British political history. Leading the Conservative Party, Thatcher implemented a series of economic policies known as "Thatcherism," which emphasized deregulation, privatization of state-owned industries, and reducing the power and influence of trade unions. Her tenure was marked by significant economic transformation, as well as controversial measures that sparked widespread debate and protest.    Tamarind Institute - was originally founded in Los Angeles in 1960 by June Wayne, and is a world renowned center for fine art lithography. Established to revive and sustain the art of lithography, which was in decline in the United States, Tamarind quickly became a leader in the education and promotion of lithographic techniques. In 1970, the institute moved to the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, where it continues to thrive as a key institution in the printmaking world. Dedicated to advancing the lithographic arts through rigorous education, collaborative projects, and the production of high-quality prints, the Tamarind Institute's influence extends globally, contributing significantly to the development and appreciation of lithography as a vibrant art form.

Peter Lord, VK3FPL/4 moved some 25 years ago to Queensland for his retirement, living at Gilston in the Gold Coast hinterland. He was active on all bands to UHF, with many HF skeds to friends bank home in Melbourne. Born in 1929, he was an official photographer and film-maker at the 1956 Melbourne Olympic Games, and soon set up a leading film processing company employing hundreds of people. He invested in a diverse range of businesses, including one which made high-quality pipe organs for churches and recital halls. A genius master craftsman, Peter seemed able to make or fix almost anything, with a well-equipped workshop in the garage under his home. Well into his 50s, Peter was actively involved in motorcycle racing, competing with some success at the Easter races at Mount Panorama, Bathurst. Peter's house bristled with antennas, almost all of which he had constructed himself, the centrepiece being a tall aluminium tower with VHF Yagis and a huge 40m beam. Time catches us all in the end, and Peter was alert and active until his passing aged just shy of 95 years on December 17. He will be sorely missed by his wife of 50 years, his family and a great many friends. Vale Peter Lord, VK3FPL. ( From Chris Edmondson, VK4EO ) Hello, I'm Geoff Emery, VK4ZPP, and I've been thinking. It seems to be that this year is off to the proverbial flying start as we are already 14 days into January. I suppose the feeling of time passing by is hastened by going into the supermarket and seeing the display of Easter hot cross buns. Be that as it may, I wonder how many of us have our calendars market with the amateur activities we want to enjoy for this year? On that point, the current issue of Amateur Radio magazine has a great two page calendar of contests as the centre fold courtesy of Alan, VK4SN. If we just want this information for personal use or as an aid for our club activities, this is the very useful Christmas present. I still miss the release of the annual callbook which contained so much of this kind of material. Every so often I see someone trying to verify details from years back and inevitably it is the callbook sitting on someone's shelf that has the answer. Perhaps my hope is in vain but I would like to see it resume publication notwithstanding the somewhat specious claims of loss of privacy that caused the ACMA to end its licensing. I have been trying to keep abreast of the weather forecasts and it almost seems that we are in a recurrent pattern, this summer. The heat of the days and the frequent showers provide a constant reminder as the grass seems reach higher for the clouds each day. In some areas there have been random but strong storms bringing deluges and currently there is a focus on the Gulf of Carpentaria where a low pressure system could spawn another cyclone. Over some time I have invested in what are called power banks as a support when we need to use medical equipment and the mains is off, in particular and hopefully also use some for playing radios away from home. There have been some good price reductions from various outlets and hopefully a lot of us have taken the opportunity to grab a New Year bargain. The most versatile unit I have includes USB and 12 volt outlets along with a modest sine-wave inverter. Perhaps with the capacity of a club bulk buy, people could get the benefit of further discounts on buying units like this. Once again the various reports on Sunspot Cycle 25 indicate a volatility which provides a lottery of operating conditions. Now there are suggestions that the cycle should peak this year and not 2025 as was previous thought. For many operators who have never experienced the joys of radio in a sunspot maximum, it is the time to put a signal on air and like fishing, see what bites. I'm Geoff Emery VK4ZPP and that's what I think….how about you?

On the 20th of August 1860, laden with what seemed like a sea of camels, horses and supplies, the Victorian Exploring Expedition set off from Royal Park in Melbourne. The party, led by Robert O'Hara Burke was intent on chasing the ultimate and as yet unmet goal on the heart of every Australian explorer; to be the first to cross the continent from south to north. Pushing through inclement weather, sick animals, cantankerous team-mates and every conceivable obstacle the Australian bush could throw at them, the party was nearly successful. They were nearly successful because Burke and three others, managed to make it to the northern coast of Australia, right up to the Gulf of Carpentaria but they never made it home. Today many historians view the Burke and Wills expedition as an unmitigated disaster. So, what really happened on that ill-fated expedition? And can we learn anything from it? Join us as we take a closer look at the adventures of Burke and Wills.

Our mini-series on Maritime Asutralia continues with an episode dedicated to Brisbane's fabulous dry dock. The dock now sits in the grounds of the Queensland Maritime Museum on a bend on the south side of the Brisbane River and contains the magnificent historical vessel HMAS Diamantina, a river class frigate built in the 1940s, and the Carpentaria, a lightship built in 1917 which provided a crucial service warning mariners of dangerous shoal waters off Fraser Island and off the western approaches tot he Torres Strait. The dock itself, the third oldest in Australia, and built in 1876, offers a fascinating insight to Australian maritime history, and in particular shipbuilding and maritime trade in Queensland. To find out more Dr Sam Willis spoke with Russell Cobine, a retired shipwright with a lifetime of experience working in dry docks. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Flood records have been swept aside in Burke, in Northern Queensland, Australia, where vast swathes of the Gulf of Carpentaria are underwater.  Most residents of Burketown were flown to safety, while emergency officials including the mayor left their own flooding properties to help others.  Livestock, and wild animals have drowned .... and whole houses have been underwater for days.  All three rivers which meet near Burke were at record levels last week - and the flooding is eight metres deeper than the old records. The area has essentially been cut off since the rainy season began four months ago.  The Burke Shire council chief executive Dan McKinlay spoke to Corin Dann.

Empire Energy Group Limited (ASX:EEG) is a Sydney based Australian oil & gas company holding 100%-owned and operated assets with unconventional targets in the Northern Territory Beetaloo Sub-basin and central trough of the McArthur Basin.With all operators increasingly active in the Beetaloo Sub-basin, attention is building as to the immense potential of this newly recognised province. Empire has completed a vertical frack and flow test of its first well (Carpentaria-1) and a successful horizontal or “lateral” well at Carpentaria 2H with a view to realising early commercial production using existing pipeline infrastructure. Carpentaria-4V and Carpentaria-3H will also be drilled this dry season, subject to logistics. Across the Beetaloo both the Santos/Tamboran and Origin/Falcon JV's have made big steps with lateral wells – also into the Velkerri B shale. Empire has the largest holdings across the Beetaloo-McArthur Basins and is also targeting the Velkerri B shale and sees strong potential in the other “stacked play” units, the Velkerri A, C and A-B.

Weipa is definitely a land of opportunity for sportfishers. Barra may well be the first species that comes to mind, or maybe permit, threadfin, fingermark...... there are so many. But unless you've been keeping an eye on this northern destination, billfish may or may not make the list. The Gulf of Carpentaria offers some exceptional opportunities to chase billfish, and sailfish in particular. Weipa sportfishing guide Ben "Notso" Bright is super keen on targeting sails, whether it's with clients or on his days off. He reckons the key is recent intel, meaning the more boats on the water chasing them the more everyone will catch. So as you'd imagine, Notso is more than happy to share some tips! ______________________ Keen to take your lure fishing to the next level?
