West Cobar Metals Ltd (ASX:WC1) managing director Matt Szwedzicki talked with Proactive's Jonathan Jackson about the company's latest metallurgical results from the Bulla Park project. Early-stage testing has delivered high-grade copper, silver, and antimony concentrates with strong recoveries. Szwedzicki described the initial float test results as amazing. A key challenge at Bulla Park has been the presence of tetrahedrite, a less common mineral in Australia. However, recent testing has demonstrated successful separation and recovery processes. The company has now achieved 88% extraction of antimony, a commodity that has surged in value due to reduced exports from China. Szwedzicki also discussed West Cobar's broader strategy, including plans to optimise metallurgical processes, assess a mineral resource estimate, and advance drilling at Bulla Park. Beyond this, the company is progressing its Salazar project in Western Australia, which holds rare earths, scandium, and alumina resources. The recent acquisition of the Mystique Gold Project further strengthens West Cobar's portfolio, adding a promising gold exploration target. Stay tuned for more updates from West Cobar Metals.

Today Shannan Davey a light-middle weight boxer will arrive in the Olympic village in Paris for his first Olympics. It's a far cry from the life he was leading in the regional town of Narrabri at the age of 10. He was regularly fighting in the playground, was hyperactive in the classroom and loved to eat pizza on the couch. Two years later – his brother told him to put the pizza down and come with him, to the boxing gym. Six weeks later he had his first fight in nearby town, Cobar. This story, the journey. IT HAS NOT BEEN EASY. There have been many falling out's, trouble getting recognition because he was from the country, travel, money, eating, so many things. But Shannan Davey – the boy with his roots firmly bound in Narrabri – has triumphed – and he's not done yet – he's so excited for Australia's boxing team at Paris. He reckons it's going to change the face of boxing in Australia – and that's why he continues to work so hard. This is a Manson Podcasting production in partnership with Rabobank Australia.

Coffee with Samso Episode 196 is with Matt Szwedzicki, Managing Director of West Cobar Metals Limited (ASX: WC1) In my first conversation in June 2023 with West Cobar Metals Limited, I noticed the amphibolite basement for the Salazar project and asked how this could affect the mineralogy of the project. With nearly 12 months of work since that time, the benefits of the Newmont deposit are now coming to light. In this episode of Coffee with Samso, Matt Szwedzicki shares with us the potential multi-commodity aspect of the Newmont deposit. The company has come a long way in substantiating its view on the new strategy in bringing light to the Titanium and Scandium part of the flow chart. This is an unfolding story and credit goes to the management for looking at the alternative value of the Newmont project. The increasing tenure of the project means that the protection of the potential value adding process is now in safekeeping. The potential extension of the amphibolite is now for West Cobar Metals to discover and if the Scandium and Titanium strategy holds ground, the shareholder value will be very interesting. Time will tell, but at least it is up to the company to find it. Samso's Conclusion I have been fascinated with the West Cobar story as it is the only Rare Earth project that I have come across that has a amphibolite basement, or rather, one that has a non-granitic basement. This stands out even more when you know that the Esperance region does not appear to have an equivalent. When I first talked to the company, I posed the question to management, what is the significance of the amphibolite? Does it come with other commodities (at that time they had a HPA resource sitting on top of the Newmont project)? There is now a pathway for the company and it will be interesting where this leads to in terms of shareholder value. The scandium story is very interesting as I have had some experience of that sector nearly a decade ago. If you watch the video and listen to Matt when he talks about the Scandium pricing mechanism, it is a revelation. For once, we have a market that is priced so high that it needs new supply to bring the pricing down so that it can create more supply and more use. It is not a matter of lack of demand, but that the sector needs supply. When you think about what the implication will mean, the opportunity for shareholder value adding is enormous.

Polymetals Resources Ltd (ASX:POL) chairman David Sproule joins Proactive to discuss the restart of the Endeavor Mine near Cobar in central New South Wales. Thanks to rising metal prices, the mine's financial prospects have soared, with a 28% increase in pre-tax net present value (NPV), now at US$257 million, and an internal rate of return (IRR) reaching 120%. Sproule delves into the significant impact of strengthened lead, zinc and silver prices on the mine's economics. The silver price, hitting a decade-high above A$42.50 per ounce, is particularly noteworthy as it propels the mine's near-term operations, especially with the planned extraction of more than five million ounces of high-grade silver ore from the Upper Main Lode in the first three years. Sproule also covers the ongoing mine plan optimisation revealing new ore sources, potentially boosting the updated ore reserve. Furthermore, he sheds light on the upcoming announcement regarding the Environmental Rehabilitation Bond exchange solution, crucial for advancing the project's financing and strategic partnerships. Sproule shares insights into how these developments are shaping the future of the Endeavor Mine, setting the stage for a robust and profitable recommencement of operations. #ProactiveInvestors #PolymetalsResources #ASX #EndeavorMine #Cobar #Silver #BaseMetals #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

West Cobar Metals (ASX: WC1) managing director Matt Szwedzicki joins Small Caps to discuss the company's plans for its promising Salazar rare earth element (REE) project in Western Australia. After a highly active year of exploration and acquisitions, West Cobar is preparing to undertake drilling and metallurgy studies to further confirm the potential of Salazar. A 2023 review of the asset produced an updated exploration of 800 to 1250 million tonnes at 1050 to 1350 parts per million total rare earth oxides (TREO) and 101 to 154 million tonnes at 4.6 to 5.4% TiO2. A key component of its 2024 exploration campaign is a large upcoming aircore drill program which has been designed to consolidate that exploration target estimate. The drilling results will also be considered in a future update of the JORC mineral resource estimates (MREs) at Newmont and O'Connor. The current estimate for the two deposits including a total rare earths mineral resource of 190 million tonnes of 1172 parts per million TREO, an inferred titanium mineral resource of 29 million tonnes of 5.0% TiO2 and an inferred alumina mineral resource of 4 million tonnes at 29.6%, with the potential for high purity alumina feedstock. The flagship Salazar project is situated in the Esperance district, approximately 120km north-east of the port and all tenements are located on non-agricultural undeveloped state land.

This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. Diversified miner Glencore has reported lower volumes across its key commodities for the 2023 financial year, but notes that these were all nonetheless still within the guided ranges. The company's own-mined production for the year totalled 1.01-million tonnes of copper, reflecting a 5% year-on-year decline; 41 300 t of cobalt, marking a 6% year-on-year decrease; 918 500 t of zinc, which was 2% lower year-on-year; and 182 700 t of lead, reflecting a 5% year-on-year decrease. Nickel production of 97 600 t was also 9% lower year-on-year; silver output of 20-million ounces 16% lower year-on-year; and ferrochrome production of 1.1-million tonnes 11% lower. The company recorded a 13% increase in gold production from 661 000 oz in the 2022 financial year to 747 000 oz in the reporting year, as well as a 3% increase in coal output from 110-million tonnes in the prior year to 113-million tonnes in the reporting year. Glencore CEO Gary Nagle attributes the lower copper and zinc volumes, including managed production volumes, to the disposals of the Cobar copper mine, in Australia, and various South American zinc operations in the year under review. He adds that cobalt production was lower owing to feed plan adjustments at the Mutanda operation, in the Democratic Republic of Congo, in the context of an oversupplied market, while nickel volumes were impacted on by higher third-party production compared with own sourced production, as well as the planned shutdown of the Murrin Murrin operation, in Australia, for routine maintenance. The company also had planned additional smelter downtime in the ferrochrome segment, during the three-month high-electricity demand winter season in South Africa when power prices are elevated. As a result of the lower 2023 production, the group has adjusted its production guidance for this year to between 950 000 t and 1.01-million tonnes of copper, between 35 000 t and 40 000 t of cobalt, between 900 000 t and 950 000 t of zinc, between 80 000 t and 90 000 t of nickel, between 1.1-million and 1.2-million tonnes of ferrochrome and between 105-million and 115-million tonnes of coal. Notably, the guidance does not take into account contributors from the Elk Valley Resources steelmaking coal assets, in Canada, which Glencore is in the process of acquiring a 77% interest in. Moreover, Glencore expects to report earnings before interest and taxes of about $3.5-billion for the 2023 financial year. Glencore will publish its full results for the year on February 21. SOLAR PLANT Meanwhile, Glencore has started construction on a 25 MW solar photovoltaic power plant at its Rhovan-managed ferroalloys mining and processing facility near Brits, in South Africa's North West province. Once completed, the plant will produce about 30% of the operations' yearly energy demand, which should save 48 000 t/y in carbon emissions at the site. Glencore Ferroalloys CEO Japie Fullard explains that, not only does the mine produce a range of vanadium products that can be used in applications to support a low-carbon economy, but by installing a solar plant that will supply renewable energy to the operation, Glencore is reducing the mine's overall emissions footprint. The company plans to work alongside the Bakwena Ba-Magopa community in developing the plant, including by involving local small- and medium-sized enterprises in the project. Commissioning of the solar plant is planned for later this year.

This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. Full-year 2023 production guidance of London- and Johannesburg-listed diversified mining and marketing company Glencore remains largely in line with previous guidance. An exception is nickel, guidance for which has been reduced to reflect maintenance outages at the Sudbury smelter in Canada and a longer than expected recovery from 2022 strike action at Raglan in Canada, together with a lower full-year revision for Koniambo Nickel mine in New Caledonia. Own sourced nickel production of 68 400 t was a 16% lower 13 200 t than in the first nine months of last year, primarily reflecting higher third-party production versus own-sourced, in large part necessitated by the strike at Raglan mine in 2022. Ferrochrome production of 873 000 t was a 21% lower 237 000 t owing to additional smelter off-line days during the three-month high electricity demand winter season, a period of elevated power prices, as well as load curtailments in South Africa. Chrome ore mining production is expected to be only modestly below 2022 levels, however. Over the first nine months of the year, production performance from the company's underlying base business was described by Glencore CEO Gary Nagle as being solid, with key copper, coal and zinc assets performing in line with expectations and previously communicated guidance. In the marketing segment, Glencore continues to expect adjusted earnings before interest and tax to be above the top end of its yearly $2.2-billion to $3.2-billion long-term guidance range. A likely outcome, the company stated, is within the previously communicated $3.5-billion to $4-billion range. Own sourced copper production of 735 800 t was 5% lower than the comparable 2022 period on the sale of Cobar in June and lower copper by-product production outside the copper department. Also in line with the first nine months of last year was own sourced cobalt production of 32 500 t. Own sourced zinc production of 672 100 t was 4% lower than the comparable 2022 period, reflecting mainly the disposals of South American zinc operations and the closure of the Matagami operation in Canada, offset by stronger production from Kazzinc (Zhairem) in Kazakhstan, and Antamina in Peru. Coal production of 83.9-million tonnes was broadly in line with the comparable 2022 period. South African thermal coal production of 13.3-million tonnes was 5% higher on improved productivity. Changes in guidance mainly reflect nickel being down 9% and ferrochrome being down 8%. The emphasis that Glencore is placing on the circular economy was highlighted again at last month's FT Mining Summit in London, amid Glencore taking several steps along the busying material recovery road through the establishment of localised circular supply chain partnerships to increase material availability in a world where environmental protection is becoming paramount.

As we recover from Diggers, we dive back into the daily news rhythm. And today we cover some interesting territory. We kick things off in Matty's favourite part of the country, Cobar. He asks Trav what “surety” means in the context of Polymetals' (POL.ax) Environmental Bond. Sheffield (SFX.ax) commence commissioning at their Thunderbird Mineral Sands Project. Trav tries his hand at some shareholder activism once again – this time it's Gascoyne (GCY.ax). Auteco (AUT.ax) are in halt and Matty tries to guess what they could be buying. And Azure Minerals (AZS.ax) are also in halt as they respond to the media speculation of corporate interest from SQM.  All Money of Mine episodes are for informational purposes only and may contain forward-looking statements that may not eventuate.

West Cobar Metals (ASX: WC1) managing director Matt Szwedzicki joins Small Caps to discuss the strides the company has taken with the release of a major resource increase at its Salazar rare earth element (REE) project in southern Western Australia. The company quadrupled its JORC (2012) total mineral resource at Sazalar to 190 million tonnes of 1,172 parts per million total rare earth oxide. Notably, the updated resource includes a significant proportion of total magnet rare earth content, with studies identifying particularly high heavy magnet rare earths material at the Newmont deposit within Sazalar. Initial metallurgical testwork carried out by the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation has provided results that show that the project's REE clay minerals are amenable to simple leach extraction. Those results have provided West Cobar with the confidence to now undertake phase 2 optimisation and flowsheet development work. Exploration work to date has also identified significant potential to increase the resource, and it is full speed ahead for the company at its project located near the export port town of Esperance.

Coffee with Samso Episode 178 is with Kevin Das, Executive Director of West Cobar Metals Limited (ASX: WC1)   The REE story is maturing for investors as the complexity of what is a good REE project is has moved several levels. What is still lagging is still a sound grounding on what is exactly an economic REE. There has been several stories on Samso but I have to admit that the jury is still a long away from a decision.   When Kevin Das, the Executive Director, of West Cobar Metals approached me to engage a Coffee with Samso, we spoke deeply on what make West Cobar different to other REE stories. The first major difference is the existence of a JORC resource for the Salazar REE project. This resource does give WC1 a first mover advantage but the competition is fast catching up.   The details of the resource may ultimately be the difference but we will need to wait for some critical steps such as the metallurgical results. The other factor which would drive this story far is that the deposit sits on top of an ultramafic base. What this means is unknown for now. There is evidence of other deposits that the enrichment of the REE is related to the base.   Salazar is the only REE deposit that I know of that is not on a granitic base. To add to the story, there is a HPA story here. There is a aluminium inferred resource on part of the Salazar resource. This may become a credit to the mining process and hence benefit the overall feasibility of the deposit.     The West Cobar Story   West Cobar is a minerals exploration and development company focused on rare earths and battery minerals within Australia and the US.    ​The Salazar REE Project​   The Salazar Rare Earths Clay Project is located on non-agricultural undeveloped state land approximately 120km north-east of the township and deep-water port of Esperance in Western Australia. The Newmont deposit, located on the easternmost tenement at Salazar, contains an estimated JORC Inferred Mineral Resource of 43.5Mt at 1192ppm TREO + Y2O3 (500ppm cut-off). The O'Connor prospect to the west of Newmont has potential to host further significant high-grade rare earths mineralization.           Figure 1: Location of the Salazar Project. (Source West Cobar Metals Limited)   Nevada Lithium Project   The Montezuma Well and Big Smoky Valley claims are considered prospective for large-scale sedimentary-hosted lithium claystone deposits. The claims are located within the world class mining-friendly jurisdiction of the Nevada lithium district and host similar geology to known major lithium deposits in the region – including American Lithium (TLC deposit), American Battery Technology Company (Tonopah Flats deposit), Ioneer (Rhyolite Ridge deposit) and Century Lithium (Clayton Valley deposit).​           Figure 2: Location of the Nevada Lithium projects. (Source West Cobar Metals Limited)   Hermit Hill Lithium Project   The Hermit Hill project area is located in the Litchfield Province in the Northern Territory, roughly 100km south-southwest of Core Lithium's Finniss Lithium Project and Lithium Plus Minerals' Lei lithium prospect, and 30km west of Ragusa Minerals' Tank Hill lithium discovery. The project is prospective for pegmatite-hosted lithium mineralisation.           Figure 3: Location of the Hermit Hill project. (Source West Cobar Metals Limited)   The West Cobar Difference   Currently, on the Australian Stock Exchange (ASX), there seem to be an overflow of REE stories. Every week there are companies announcing the presence of REE and one could be forgiven to felling a sense of boredom. When the REE story emerge nearly 2 years ago, there was excitement and a bullish feel to this sector. However, as investors start to get a flood of news, this excitement starts to turn into confusion.   What I can say about the Salazar REE deposit is that it holds a few point of difference. It is still a clay hosted deposit as opposed to the ionic versions but the high grade nature of the resource - 43.5Mt @ 1192 TREO, makes this one of the deposits to take note.   On top of the REE resource, there is a HPA n inferred JORC Resource of 28.3 Mt at 23.4% Al2O3 (at 10% cut off). How this adds to the economics of the minnig of the Salazar REE story is yet to be played out. The positive would be that it adds credit to the process and lowers the overall feasibility and the downside is that it is mined and put aside. As the HPA content is part of the overall Salazar deposit means that there is no extra cost in mining it or isolating it.   The clay mineralisation at Newmont has a relatively high magnet rare earth oxide content comprising about 25% of the basket. In particular the Newmont deposit is relatively high in high value, heavy magnet REE content, comprising 3% dysprosium and 0.5% terbium content. Praseodymium makes up 4.2% and neodymium 16.8% of TREO (See Figure 4).         Figure 4: REE distribution within the Salazar deposit. (Source: West Cobar Metals Limited).   The other factor which may eventually affect the leachability of the deposit may lie in the fact that this deposit is overlaying a ultramafic (Amphibolite) basement. Like many of the REE story, the outright understanding of the flow chart of processing is still work in progress. This ultramafic basement is the key difference as all the other known Australian clay hosted deposit sits over granitic source.     Samso's Conclusion   These days, there is a large volume of REE deposits being marketed. We know that there is a Clay hosted and a Ionic hosted REE deposit. The difference is in the ability to easily extract the REE in the downstream process. I have spoken to people who tell me that the difference is not a physical or grade factor, but it in the test of whether they are easily leached out.   The host of ionic deposits are not restricted to the Chinese version as they are also granitic base. I know of an Australian ionic style being hosted over a limestone which is totally different. I am told that research has shown that the enrichment may be helped by the limestone interface.   If this is true, will the fact that the West Cobar deposit being overlaying an ultramafic source lead to a different leaching style? Management seems optimistic but lets wait for the facts.   If we want to look at which of the REE stories are going to have the legs to be at the mining and processing stage, then the odd balls like the Salazar REE project should be on our watch screens. Remember that there is also the potential for the mining of the HPA which is again something that is not present in all the other stories presently being sold in the ASX.       Chapters:   00:00 Start 00:20 Introduction 01:29 About Kevin Das 02:01 Kevin's experience at Northern Minerals 03:44 All about the Salazar Rare Earth Project 04:21 The unique aspect of the Newmont deposit 05:37 The drill results at Salazar 06:29 The resource in Esperance 07:09 Understanding the drill results 10:34 West Cobar Metals being a first mover 12:14 The Alumina resource in Newmont 16:31 Projects in the US 17:21 Discussion about the journey of rare earths 21:52 The rare earths capital market 23:49 News flow 26:54 Challenges faced by West Cobar Metals 29:01 Why West Cobar Metals? 30:02 Conclusion

Primeira Leitura: Ezequiel 43,1-7 Leitura da profecia de Ezequiel – 1O homem conduziu-me até a porta da casa do Senhor que dá para o nascente, 2e eu vi a glória do Deus de Israel, vinda do oriente; um ruído a acompanhava, semelhante ao ruído de águas caudalosas, e a terra brilhava com a sua glória. 3A visão era idêntica à visão que tive quando ele veio destruir a cidade, bem como à visão que tive junto ao rio Cobar; e eu caí com o rosto no chão. 4A glória do Senhor entrou no templo pela porta que dá para o nascente. 5Então, o espírito raptou-me e me levou para dentro do pátio interno, e eu vi que o templo ficou cheio da glória do Senhor. 6Ouvi alguém falando-me de dentro do templo, enquanto o homem esteve de pé junto a mim. 7Ele me disse: “Filho do homem, este é o lugar do meu trono, é o lugar em que coloco a planta dos meus pés, o lugar onde habitarei para sempre no meio dos israelitas”. – Palavra do Senhor. Salmo Responsorial: 84(85) A glória do Senhor habitará em nossa terra. 1. Quero ouvir o que o Senhor irá falar: / é a paz que ele vai anunciar. / Está perto a salvação dos que o temem, / e a glória habitará em nossa terra. – R. 2. A verdade e o amor se encontrarão, / a justiça e a paz se abraçarão; / da terra brotará a fidelidade, / e a justiça olhará dos altos céus. – R. 3. O Senhor nos dará tudo o que é bom, / e a nossa terra nos dará suas colheitas; / a justiça andará na sua frente / e a salvação há de seguir os passos seus. – R. Evangelho: Mateus 23,1-12 Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia. Vós tendes um só Pai, que está no céu, / vosso guia é um somente, é o Messias (Mt 23,9s). – R. Proclamação do Evangelho de Jesus Cristo segundo Mateus – Naquele tempo, 1Jesus falou às multidões e aos seus discípulos: 2“Os mestres da Lei e os fariseus têm autoridade para interpretar a Lei de Moisés. 3Por isso, deveis fazer e observar tudo o que eles dizem. Mas não imiteis suas ações! Pois eles falam e não praticam. 4Amarram pesados fardos e os colocam nos ombros dos outros, mas eles mesmos não estão dispostos a movê-los nem sequer com um dedo. 5Fazem todas as suas ações só para serem vistos pelos outros. Eles usam faixas largas, com trechos da Escritura, na testa e nos braços e põem na roupa longas franjas. 6Gostam de lugar de honra nos banquetes e dos primeiros lugares nas sinagogas. 7Gostam de ser cumprimentados nas praças públicas e de serem chamados de mestre. 8Quanto a vós, nunca vos deixeis chamar de mestre, pois um só é vosso Mestre e todos vós sois irmãos. 9Na terra, não chameis a ninguém de pai, pois um só é vosso Pai, aquele que está nos céus. 10Não deixeis que vos chamem de guias, pois um só é o vosso Guia, Cristo. 11Pelo contrário, o maior dentre vós deve ser aquele que vos serve. 12Quem se exaltar será humilhado, e quem se humilhar será exaltado”. – Palavra da salvação.

Primeira Leitura: Ezequiel 1,2-5.24-28 Leitura da profecia de Ezequiel – 2No dia cinco do mês – esse era o quinto ano do exílio do rei Joaquim -, 3a palavra do Senhor foi dirigida a Ezequiel, filho do sacerdote Buzi, na terra dos caldeus, junto ao rio Cobar. Foi ali que a mão do Senhor esteve sobre ele. 4Eu vi que um vento impetuoso vinha do norte, uma grande nuvem envolta em claridade e relâmpagos; no meio brilhava algo como se fosse ouro incandescente. 5No centro aparecia a figura de quatro seres vivos. Este era o seu aspecto: cada um tinha a figura de homem. 24E eu ouvi o rumor de suas asas: era como um estrondo de muitas águas, como a voz do Poderoso. Quando se moviam, o seu ruído era como o barulho de um acampamento; quando paravam, eles deixavam pender as asas. 25O ruído vinha de cima do firmamento, que estava sobre suas cabeças. 26Acima do firmamento que estava sobre as cabeças havia algo parecido com safira, uma espécie de trono, e sobre essa espécie de trono, bem no alto, uma figura com aparência humana. 27E eu vi como que um brilho de ouro incandescente, envolvendo essa figura como se fosse fogo, acima daquilo que parecia ser a cintura; abaixo daquilo que parecia ser a cintura, vi algo como fogo e, em sua volta, um círculo luminoso. 28Esse círculo luminoso tinha o mesmo aspecto do arco-íris, que se forma nas nuvens em dia de chuva. Tal era a aparência visível da glória do Senhor. Ao vê-la, caí com o rosto no chão. – Palavra do Senhor. Salmo Responsorial: 148 Da vossa glória estão cheios o céu e a terra. 1. Louvai o Senhor Deus nos altos céus, / louvai-o no excelso firmamento! / Louvai-o, anjos seus, todos louvai-o, / louvai-o, legiões celestiais! – R. 2. Reis da terra, povos todos, bendizei-o, / e vós, príncipes e todos os juízes; / e vós, jovens, e vós, moças e rapazes, / anciãos e criancinhas, bendizei-o! – R. 3. Louvem o nome do Senhor, louvem-no todos, / porque somente o seu nome é excelso! / A majestade e esplendor de sua glória / ultrapassam em grandeza o céu e a terra. – R. 4. Ele exaltou seu povo eleito em poderio, / ele é o motivo de louvor para os seus santos. / É um hino para os filhos de Israel, / este povo que ele ama e lhe pertence. – R. Evangelho: Mateus 17,22-27 Aleluia, aleluia, aleluia. Pelo Evangelho o Pai nos chamou, / a fim de alcançarmos a glória / de nosso Senhor Jesus Cristo (2Ts 2,14). – R. Proclamação do Evangelho de Jesus Cristo segundo Mateus – Naquele tempo, 22quando Jesus e os seus discípulos estavam reunidos na Galileia, ele lhes disse: “O Filho do Homem vai ser entregue nas mãos dos homens. 23Eles o matarão, mas no terceiro dia ele ressuscitará”. E os discípulos ficaram muito tristes. 24Quando chegaram a Cafarnaum, os cobradores do imposto do templo aproximaram-se de Pedro e perguntaram: “O vosso mestre não paga o imposto do templo?” 25Pedro respondeu: “Sim, paga”. Ao entrar em casa, Jesus adiantou-se e perguntou: “Simão, que te parece: os reis da terra cobram impostos ou taxas de quem, dos filhos ou dos estranhos?” 26Pedro respondeu: “Dos estranhos!” Então Jesus disse: “Logo os filhos são livres. 27Mas, para não escandalizar essa gente, vai ao mar, lança o anzol e abre a boca do primeiro peixe que tu pescares. Ali tu encontrarás uma moeda; pega então a moeda e vai entregá-la a eles, por mim e por ti”. – Palavra da salvação.

It's great to catch up with the ever ebullient Dr Geoff Chapman who slipped quietly into retirement four years ago, after a life of achievement and great diversity. Geoff begins by talking about his return to the medical profession after terminating his training career. He looks back on his early years at Cobar and his family's move to a property on the outskirts of Dubbo. Geoff talks of five happy years at the Farrer Memorial Agricultural High School at Tamworth. He remembers with affection his enrolment at Sydney University. His initial goal was an Agricultural Science Degree, but that changed when he became friendly with a group of medical students. “Doc” remembers his National Service enlistment and a brief sojourn in the boxing ring. His next sporting pursuit was Rugby Union. He made the University side, and forged a friendship with a legendary coach. Geoff reflects on his three test matches as a Wallaby. He has some amusing stories about a NZ tour. He recalls the completion of his studies and the beginning of a professional life with his coveted MBBS degree. His medical career began in his hometown of Dubbo. He talks of some early experience in orthopaedic surgery. Geoff looks back on his annual visits to the Melbourne Cup carnival, and the friendship he forged with Tommy Smith. He remembers his start as a solo trainer and a two year old race at Dubbo which saw the debut of his first top class horse Lord Ben. Geoff looks back on his disillusionment with the life of a country GP, and the move to Rosehill where he launched a serious training involvement. “Doc” Chapman as he was universally known in Sydney racing, reflects on some of his early winners. He's never forgotten the day he first spotted Myocard at a yearling sale in NZ. He talks of the colt's rise to stardom. Geoff pays tribute to his 4 time Gr 1 winner, the handsome aristocratic Dr Grace.  There's little doubt Groucho was the trainer's all time favourite horse. The stallion didn't win a Gr 1 , but ran four seconds at the elite level. “Doc” loved him. I've had several requests for a podcast with a man who excelled in his professional life and in his chosen sport. Here it is.

In this first episode of 2020, we interview Rob Tyson (no I’m not interviewing myself!), Managing Director of Peel Mining Ltd, an Australian company focused on exploring and developing precious base metals resources in New South Wales, Australia. Peel Mining is listed on the Australian Securities Exchange and is continuing to build shareholder value by recognising, enhancing and developing undervalued mineral resource assets and which has three base and precious metals projects in NSW. We chat about how Peel Mining is developing assets in Cober, NSW, the discoveries they have made, exploration in the Cobar Basin, and what makes the area special. Through their success, Rob and Peel have been awarded the AMEC Prospector Award. We discuss what makes them unique, their project criteria and what lies in the future for the company and in the Cobar region. We conclude by seeing how the exploration and geology sector is developing in Australia. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Cobar basin region is an area with a strong mining pedigree, which was attractive to Peel.  The main formations in the Cobar region are pipe-like, and stretch all the way to the centre of the earth. The highest grade copper mine in Australia is local to the area and stretched down almost 2km below the surface. Companies are more keen to invest in their own exploration projects instead of funding junior miners to find them on their behalf. Batteries and electric vehicles are set to drive up the demand, and the price, of copper, of which there does not seem to be enough right now. Rob’s advice to aspiring geologists is to make sure their CV is up to date and looking attractive, and then get it in front of as many people as possible. People don’t mind being approached, and opportunities are there. .BEST MOMENTS ‘It’s the only job I know where you get paid to go camping’ ‘There’s a lot of low-grade opportunities in South America’ ‘The biggest issue is making sure you’ve got the right people’ ‘Hopefully the commodities market is firm over the next twelve to eighteen months. It’s fits and starts’ ‘Keep getting your CV out there!’   VALUABLE RESOURCES   Dig Deep – The Mining Podcast on iTunes Rob Tyson - Peel Mining LinkedIn - https://uk.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-9bb8638 Peel Mining - http://www.peelmining.com.au ABOUT THE HOST Rob Tyson is an established recruiter in the mining and quarrying sector and decided to produce the “Dig Deep” The Mining Podcast to provide valuable and informative content around the mining industry.

Parts of Australia are in the grip of one of the worst droughts in decades and water security is a key issue. While Sydney is about to go onto level 2 water restrictions, some towns like Cobar, Armidale and Stanthorpe are close to running out of water altogether. Is the answer water recycling?

In this episode Kerry Walker interviews Hennie du Plooy.  Hennie du Plooy is Chief Executive Officer of Port Waratah Coal Services. As the leader at PWCS, Hennie believes that achievement comes through the teams you lead and are a part of. Throughout Hennie’s career, all of his roles have been in, or related to mining. Hennie has had numerous opportunities and challenges along the way working in copper, gold and uranium in South Africa to gold in Cobar in western NSW, to coal in central Queensland.

Inaya grew up on a family farm in the Wheatbelt and moved to Esperance, WA when she was a teenager. She has always loved agriculture and is currently studying a Bachelor of Agriculture through the University of New England. She studies via correspondence while working locally in the industry. Inaya’s Dad (Ross) and sister (Amelia) were a part of the first Farmers Across Borders hay run in 2014, so she jumped at the chance to be a part of the 2019 run. She is now the co-secretary of Farmers Across Borders and loves the role. Her favourite part of the hay runs is knowing that she can help those who need it, even if they don’t want to ask. Farmers Across Borders – Hay from WA, is a group of farmers from Western Australia aiming to help farmers who have been affected by drought and other natural disasters. Following a successful trip to Bourke NSW in 2014, a call was made to do another run in September 2018 and so plans were started.  On Australia Day 2019, 47 road trains rolled their way into Cobar, NSW. All hay was donated by generous West Aussie farmers, all eager to help their eastern state neighbours still struggling in drought.

Mining as a career offers fantastic opportunities. And with the right mindset, those opportunities are vast, no matter where you start out. Our newest member of Team FACE, Dave Tomek, proves this in spades. Each Wednesday, join me, Peter Finn, managing director of FACE Contracting, as I navigate the ups and downs of the mining industry with forward-thinking professionals from all walks of life. If you're involved in the mining industry in any way – whether you're a lifer or a high-school student looking to make the leap – Full Production is the podcast for you. Dave has joined us as our new labour coordinator and Cobar branch manager. The beauty of having Dave on board at FACE is that his own mining journey shows just how far you can go in this business, no matter what cards you're dealt. As Dave tells it, in the eyes of the army at least, he's as blind as a bat – a fact that led to some pretty early disappointment. But turning to mining he found he had the mindset to go from strength to strength, right up to shift boss. And the rest, as they say, is history. It's a great lesson in not letting setbacks deny your potential. Dave's experience working with and managing all types of people in mining, puts him in a great place to really understand where people are coming from, what they've got to offer, and how they can reach their potential in what can be a lucrative and fulfilling career. Here's what we dig into:  Dave's journey from supermarket storeman to mining success How to take the lessons from the tough times and use them for good Rising through the ranks in mining An insight into various different mining jobs and what's involved Lessons from managing a crew Effectively dealing with burnout, redundancy and toxic workplaces What drew Dave to FACE and how he became part of the team Finding a new home for your skillset Why you should never be ashamed to seek outside help, mental, financial, career or otherwise  Links: Dave Tomek - LinkedIn Full Production EP#11 - Tony Andrews on A Life In Mining, Miners' Health and The Lessons Of History

My old high school in the small mining town of Cobar had a slogan: Cobar kids can. My guest on this episode was definitely one of those Cobar kids who could, Matt Harland. From a kid who wasn't interested in much, he's gone on to an incredible career that's taken him from studying engineering to the copper mines of Mount Isa to completing an MBA in Denmark, and then travelling the world promoting it. All that and more for a guy who is still only in his twenties. His story is truly inspirational for those starting out or kicking on. Here's some of what we cover in this chat: His journey from uninspired Cobar boy to engineering grad Why education is so important to him How he ended up in the copper mines of Mount Isa and the lessons learned The value of mentors, formal and informal, in life How a natural curiosity about business led him to an MBA in Denmark Thoughts on Scandinavia and some funny stories Being paid to travel the world promoting the MBA program Taking big (calculated) risks in work and in life A look at his latest role for a major multi-national Thought-provoking ideas for marketing mining to top talent   Links: Matt on Facebook Matt on LinkedIn Email: MattyHarlo@gmail.com

With so much talk about the downsides of mining on small communities these days, it's great to bring you a positive story for a bit of counterbalance. My guest on this episode of Full Production is Barry Knight. Many would say the Knight family is the closest thing to royalty in the mining community of Cobar in far west New South Wales. The first Knights arrived there in 1871, and they've added more than their fair share of colour to the town's history ever since.   Barry is no exception. And we'll hear about some of his exploits in this episode. But it's really about his passion project – The Cobar Miners' Memorial project – that's the focus. The project, Barry's absolute commitment to it, and how the Cobar community has got behind it, is a fantastic story of a town remembering its history and how it benefits the present and the future. It's a really uplifting story.   Here's some of what Baz and I chat about in this episode:        What's driving him to get the Memorial off the ground      His family's fascinating history and links to Cobar      The importance of remembering those who lost their lives in mining      Background to the Memorial and how it's progressing      How changes in the mining industry practices affect communities      How we can help revive mining communities      Tom Knight: Cobars greatest rugby league player?      How to get involved with the Cobar Miners' Memorial project   Links:  Barry Knight on Facebook Cobar Miners' Memorial Facebook group Email – CobarMinersMemorial@gmail.com Phone – 0447 099 323 Your From Cobar When Facebook group

On the latest episode of the Full Production podcast, I was lucky enough to meet with one of my best mates, Jaye Robinson, talk about his unconventional beginnings in the mining industry. Jaye and I grew up in Cobar together, and while we both went into mining, he made a radical decision to move to Africa in his early 20's.   It was a move that opened his young eyes to the harsh reality of undeveloped working conditions. After contracting malaria and reaching his breaking point, Jaye decided he had enough and moved to Canada, where he would eventually establish the business he owns today, Austech Industries Ltd. Jaye is not a big talker. But when he speaks, he always has something important to say. He's a true representation of the humble mining ethos that I'm proud of, and no matter what sector of the industry you're in, you'll love this podcast.   In this episode, Jaye and I talk about: Why Jaye decided at a young age that school wasn't for him The skill shortage that is threatening the industry His first impressions when arriving in a Tanzanian work camp Why contracting Malaria convinced Jaye that it was time to move on How losing his home in a wildfire changed everything Work opportunities for Aussies interested in moving to Canada Jaye's thoughts on the future of the industry His motto of “bring it on and embrace it”   Links: Austech Industries Jaye's LinkedIn
