It landed in a crowded Summit County, just down the road from Arapahoe Basin (1946) and five miles overland from Breckenridge (1961). Copper Mountain came online two years later. Loveland (1937) stood at the gateway to Summit County, looming above what would become the Eisenhower Tunnel in 1973. Just west sat Ski Cooper (1942), the mighty and rapidly expanding Vail Mountain (1962), and the patch of wilderness that would morph into Beaver Creek within a decade. Today, the density of ski areas along Colorado's I-70 corridor is astonishing:Despite this geographic proximity, you could not find more distinct ski experiences were you to search across continents. This is true everywhere ski areas bunch, from northern Vermont to Michigan's Upper Peninsula to the Wasatch. Ski areas, like people, hack their identities out of the raw material available to them, and just as siblings growing up in the same household can emerge as wildly different entities, so too can mountains that sit side-by-side-by-side.Keystone, lacking the gnar, was never going to be Jackson or Palisades, fierce and frothing. Sprung from wilderness, it could never replicate Breck's mining-town patina. Its high alpine could not summon the drama of A-Basin's East Wall or the expanse of Vail's Back Bowls.But Keystone made its way. It would be Summit County's family mountain, its night-ski mountain, and, eventually, one of its first-to-open-each-ski-season mountains. This is the headline, and this is how everyone thinks of the place. But over the decades, Keystone has quietly built out one of Colorado's most comprehensive ski experiences, an almost perfect front-to-back progression from gentle to damn. Like Heavenly or Park City, Keystone wears its steeps modestly, like your quiet neighbor with a Corvette hidden beneath tarps in the polebarn. All you notice is the Camry parked in the driveway. But there are layers here. Keep looking, and you will find them.What we talked aboutHopeful for that traditional October opening; why Keystone is Vail's early-season operator in Colorado; why the mountain closes in early April; breaking down the Bergman Bowl expansion and the six-pack that will service it; the eternal tension of opening hike-to terrain to lift service; building more room to roam, rather than more people to roam it; the art of environmentally conscious glading; new lift-served  terrain in Erickson Bowl; turning data into infrastructure; why the Bergman sixer won't have bubbles; why Bergman won't access The Windows terrain; the clever scheme behind renaming the Bergman Bowl expansion trails; building a new trailmap with Rad Smith; where skiers will be able to get a copy of the new paper trailmap; comparing the Peru upgrade to the Bergman lift project; the construction mistake that delayed the Bergman expansion by a full year; the possibility of lifts in Independence, North, and South Bowls; falling in love with skiing Colorado, then moving to Michigan; why Vail bought a bunch of Midwest bumps; when you get to lead the resort where you started bumping lifts; what makes Keystone stand out even though it sits within one of the densest concentrations of large ski areas in North America; thoughts on long-term lift upgrades, and where we could see six-packs; whether the Argentine lift could ever return in some form; the potential for a Ski Tip lift; where Keystone could expand next; whether a Windows lift is in play; North American Bowl; when we could see an updated Keystone masterplan; why Keystone gets less snow than its neighbors; assessing Epic Pass access; and night skiing.   Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewKeystone is opening one of three large lift-served ski expansions in Colorado this winter: the 500-plus-acre Bergman Bowl, served by a high-speed six-pack (the other two are Hero's on Aspen Mountain and Mahogany Ridge at Steamboat). While this pod has occupied the trailmap as hike-to terrain for years, more people will likely ski it before noon on a typical Monday than once slogged up the ridgeline in an entire winter. Keystone has renamed and somewhat re-sculpted the trails in honor of the occasion, inviting the masses onto a blue-square oasis at the top of Summit County.Which is always a good excuse for a podcast. But… this terrain was supposed to open in 2022, until the project ran into a high-altitude brick wall last July, when construction crews oopsied a road through sensitive terrain. Vail Daily:Construction of a new chairlift at Keystone Resort was ordered to cease this week after the U.S. Forest Service learned that an unauthorized road had been bulldozed through sensitive areas where minimal impacts were authorized.Keystone Resort, which operates by permit on U.S. Forest Service land, was granted permission by the White River National Forest to construct a new chairlift this summer in the area known as Bergman Bowl, creating a 555-acre expansion of Keystone's lift-served terrain. But that approval came with plenty of comments from the Environmental Protection Agency, which recommended minimal road construction associated with the project due to Bergman Bowl's environmentally sensitive location. …White River National Forest Supervisor Scott Fitzwilliams said while the Forest Service does approve many projects like Bergman Bowl, officials typically don't allow construction of new access roads in Alpine tundra.“When you drop a bulldozer blade in the Alpine, that is very fragile, and very difficult to restore,” Fitzwilliams said.In Bergman Bowl, the Forest Service has found “damage to the Alpine environment … impacts to wetlands and stuff that we normally don't want to do,” Fitzwilliams said.As a result, Fitzwilliams issued a cease and desist letter to Vail Resorts. He said the company immediately complied and shut down the impacted parts of the project.The Forest Service has not yet determined if a full restoration can occur.“When you impact the Alpine environment, it's not easy to restore,” Fitzwilliams said. “Sometimes, although achievable in some areas, it's difficult.”Vail Resorts, which has staked much of its identity on its friend-of-the-environment credentials, owned the mistake and immediately hired a firm to design a mitigation plan. What Keystone came back with was so thorough that it stunned Forest Service officials. Blevins, writing a week later in the Colorado Sun:White River National Forest supervisor Scott Fitzwilliams on Thursday said he accepted Vail Resorts' cure for improperly grading 2.5 acres outside of approved construction boundaries, including 1.5 acres above treeline in the fragile alpine zone. The company's construction crews also filled a wetland creek with logs and graded over it to create a road crossing and did not save topsoil and vegetation for replanting after construction, all of which the agency found “were not consistent with Forest Service expectations.”Fitzwilliams rescinded his order of noncompliance and canceled the cease-and-desist order he issued last month after Forest Service officials discovered the construction that had not been permitted. …“Quite honestly, it's the best restoration plan I've ever seen in my life. Even our staff are like ‘Oh my god,'” Fitzwilliams said. “The restoration plan submitted by Keystone is extremely detailed, thorough and includes all the necessary actions to insure the damage is restored as best as possible.”The damage to fragile alpine terrain does require additional analysis under the National Environmental Policy Act, but Fitzwilliams said that can be done while the construction continues.On Thursday afternoon, resort officials said the further environmental review will keep Bergman Bowl from opening for the 2022-23 season, a development Keystone general manager Chris Sorensen said is disappointing but necessary.Indeed. The only way out is through. But how did that plan go? And what is Vail doing to make sure such mistakes don't recur? And how do you manage such a high-profile mistake from a personal and leadership point of view? It was a conversation worth having, and one that Sorensen managed well.What I got wrong…About the exact timeline of Vail's Midwest acquisitionsI kind of lumped Vail Resorts' first three Midwest acquisitions together, but there was quite a bit of space between the company's purchase of Afton Alps and Mt. Brighton, in 2012, and its pickup of Wilmot in 2016. The rest came with the Peak Resorts' acquisition in 2019.About Copper Mountain's season pass priceI said that it was “about $750” for a Copper pass or an Ikon Base Pass. Both were undercounts. Copper's 2023-24 season pass debuted at $799 and is now $849. The 2023-24 Ikon Base Pass, which includes unlimited access to Copper Mountain, debuted at $829 and now sells for $929.About the most-affordable big-mountain ski passes in the United StatesI said that Keystone offered “the most affordable big-mountain season pass” in the country. With peak-day walk-up lift tickets scheduled to hit $269 this season at Keystone, that may seem like an odd declaration. But it's almost true: Keystone sells the second-most-affordable unlimited season pass among America's 20 largest ski areas. Sister resort Park City comes in cheaper on a cost-per-acre basis, and Vail Mountain is tied with Keystone. In fact, four of the top five most affordable big-mountain passes are at Vail-owned properties (Park City, Keystone, Vail, and Heavenly):About night skiingI said that Keystone had “the largest night-skiing operation in America.” This is incorrect. I tried to determine who, indeed, hosts America's largest night-skiing operation, but after slamming my head into a wall for a few hours, I abandoned the exercise. There is absolutely no common standard of measurement, probably because 14-year-olds slamming Bang energy drinks and Faceposting from the chairlift aren't keen on fact-checking. Here's the best I could come up with:Even that simple chart took an embarrassing amount of time to assemble. At some point I will return to this exercise, and will include the entire country. The Midwest will factor significantly here, as nearly every ski area in the region is 100 percent lit for night-skiing. New York and the Mid-Atlantic also host many large night-skiing operations, as do Bolton Valley, Vermont and Pleasant Mountain, Maine. But unless I wanted to publish this podcast in June of 2024, I needed to flee this particular briar patch before I got ensnared.Why you should ski KeystoneThe Keystone you're thinking of is frontside Keystone, Dercum Mountain, River Run and Mountain House, Montezuma and Peru. That Keystone has a certain appeal. It is an approachable outsiders' version of Colorado, endless and wide, fast but manageable, groomed spirals ambling beneath the sunshine. Step out of the Suburban after a 16-hour drive from Houston, and find the Middle Earth you were seeking, soaring and jagged and wild, with a pedestrian village at the base.Keep going. Down Mine Shaft or Diamond Back to North Peak: 1,600 vertical feet of moguls bigger than your car. A half-dozen to choose from. Behind that, yet another peak, like a third ski area. Outback is where things start to get savage. Not drop-off-The-Cirque-at-Snowbird savage, but challenging enough. Slide back to Timberwolf or Bushwacker or Badger – or, more boldly, the trees in between – for that wild Colorado that Texas Ted and New York Ned find off Dercum.Or walk past the snow fort and click out, bootpack a mile and drop into Upper Windows, the only terrain marked double black on Keystone's sprawling trailmap. A rambling world, crisp and silent beneath the Outpost Gondola. Until it spits you out onto Mozart, Keystone's I-70, frantic and cluttered all the way to Santiago, and another lap.Podcast NotesOn Keystone's 2009  masterplan Keystone's masterplan dates to 2009, the second-oldest on file with the White River National Forest (Buttermilk's dates to 2008). The sprawling plan includes several yet-to-be-constructed lifts, including fixed-grips up Independence Bowl and Windows, a surface lift bisecting North and South Bowls; and a two-way ride out of Ski Tip. The plan also proposes upgrades to Outback, Wayback, and A-51; and a whole new line for the now-decommissioned Argentine:Since that image isn't very crisp, here's a closer look at Dercum:North Peak:And Outback:Sorensen and I discuss the potential for each of these projects, some of which are effectively dead. Strangely, Keystone's only two new chairlifts (besides Bergman), since 2009 - upgrading Montezuma and Peru from high-speed quads to sixers – were not suggested on the MDP at all. Argentine, which once connected the Mountain House Base directly to the Montezuma lift, was a casualty of the 2021 Peru upgrade. Here's a before-and-after:Argentine, it turns out, is just the latest casualty in Keystone's front-side clean-sweep. Check out this 1996 trailmap, when Dercum (called “Keystone” here), hosted nine frontside chairlifts (plus the gondola), to today's five:On the new Bergman Bowl trail namesBergman Bowl has appeared on Keystone's trailmap since at least 2005. The resort added trail names around 2007. As part of the lift installation, we get all new trail names and a few new trails (as well as downgrades, for most of the old lines, to blues). Keystone also updated trailnames in adjacent Erickson Bowl, which the new lift will partially serve. Sorensen and I discuss the naming scheme in the pod:On Rad Smith's new hand-painted Keystone trailmapSince 2002 or so, Keystone's trailmap has viewed the resort at a slight angle, with Dercum prioritized, the clear “front side.”The new map, Sorensen tells us, whips the vantage around to the side, giving us a better view of Bergman and, consequently, of North Peak and Outback. Here's the old map (2022 on the left), alongside the new:And here's the two-part video series on making the map with Rad Smith:On Vail's new appI've driven round trip between New York City and Michigan hundreds of times. Most of the drive is rural and gorgeous, cruise-control country, the flat Midwest and the rolling mountains of Pennsylvania. Even the stretch of north Jersey is attractive, hilly and green, dramatic at the Delaware Water Gap. All that quaintness slams shut on the eastbound approach to the George Washington Bridge, where a half dozen highways collapse into the world's busiest bridge. Backups can be comically long. Hitting this blockade after a 12-hour drive can be excruciating.Fortunately, NJDOT, or the Port Authority, or whomever controls the stretch of Interstate 80 that approaches the bridge after its 2,900-mile journey from San Francisco, has erected signs a few dozen miles out that ominously communicate wait times for the GW's upper and lower decks. I used to doubt these signs as mad guesses typed in by some low-level state employee sitting in a control room with a box of donuts. But after a couple dozen unsuccessful attempts to outsmart the system, I arrived at a bitter realization: the signs were always right.This is the experience that users of Vail's new My Epic app can (hopefully) expect when it comes online this winter. This app will be your digital Swiss Army Knife, your Epic Pass/stats tracker/snow cam/in-resort credit card/GPS tracker with interactive trailmap. No word on if they'll include that strange metal spire that's either a miniature icepick or an impromptu brass knuckle. But the app will include real-time grooming updates and chairlift wait times. And if a roadsign in New Jersey can correctly communicate wait times to cross the George Washington Bridge, then Vail Resorts ought to be able to sync this chairlift wait-times thing pretty precisely.On Mt. Brighton being built from landfillDepending upon your point of view, Mt. Brighton, Michigan – which Sorensen ran from 2016 to 2018 – is either the most amazing or the most appalling ski area in Vail's sprawling portfolio. Two-hundred thirty vertical feet, 130 acres, five chairlifts, seven surface lifts, and about four trees, rising like some alt-world mini-Alps from the flatlands of Southeast Michigan.Why is it there? What does it do? Who would do such a thing to themselves? The answer to the first question lies in the expressways that crisscross three miles to the east: crews building Interstate 96 and US 23 deposited the excess dirt here, making a hill. The answer to the second question is: the place sells a s**t-ton of Epic Passes, which was the point of Vail buying the joint. And the answer to the third question is obvious as well: for the local kids, its ski here or ski nowhere, and little Midwest hills are more fun than you think. Especially when you're 12 and the alternative is sitting inside for Michigan's 11-month winter.On Keystone's potential West Ridge expansionSorensen refers to a potential “West Ridge” expansion, which does not appear on the 2009 trailmap. The ski area's 1989 masterplan, however, shows up to five lifts scaling West Ridge between North Peak and Outback (which was then called “South Peak”):On Keystone being among Colorado's least-snowy major resortsIt's a strange fact of geography that Keystone scores significantly less snow, on average, than its Colorado peers:This makes even less sense when you realize how close Keystone sits to A-Basin (115 more inches per season), Breck (118), and Copper (70):When I hosted OpenSnow founder and CEO Joel Gratz on the podcast last year, he explained Keystone's odd circumstances (as well as how the mountain sometimes does better than its neighbors), at the 1:41:43 mark.On pass prices across Summit County creeping up over the past several yearsSummit County was Ground Zero for the pass wars, during which a preponderance of mountains the size of Rhode Island fought to the death over who could give skiing away the cheapest. There are many reasons this battle started here, and many reasons why it's ending. Not the least of which is that each of these ski areas hosts the population of a small city every day all winter long. Colorado accounts for approximately one in four U.S. skier visits. The state's infrastructure is one rolled-over semi away from post-apocalyptic collapse. There's no reason that skiing has to cost less than a load of laundry when everyone wants to do it all the time.As a result, prices are slowly but steadily rising. Here's what's happened to pass prices at the four Summit County ski areas over the past six seasons:They've mostly gone up. Keystone is the only one that is less expensive to ski at now than it was in 2018 (on a season-pass basis). This chart is somewhat skewed by a couple of factors:* For the 2018-19 ski season, A-Basin was an unlimited member of the Epic Pass, Epic Local Pass, and Summit Value Pass, a fact that nearly broke the place. The drastic price drop from 2018 to '19 reflects A-Basin's first year outside Vail's coalition.* Vail cut Epic Pass prices 20 percent from the 2020-21 ski season to the 2021-22 campaign. That's why Breck and Keystone are approximately the same price now as they were before the asteroid attack, Covid.* Little-known fact: Copper Mountain sells its own season pass, separate from the Ikon Pass, even though the mountain offers unlimited access on both the Ikon Base and full Ikon passes.On Mr. OklahomaI don't want to spoil the ending here, but we do talk about this.The Storm explores the world of lift-served skiing year-round.

Thiessen stated over $1 billion has been spent on drilling, engineering studies, and environmental work to advance Pebble, one of the world's largest undeveloped copper-gold-molybdenum deposits.The Pebble deposit contains approximately 57 billion pounds of copper, 71 million ounces of gold, and significant molybdenum and silver. Initial mine plans outline a project producing 300-350 million pounds of copper and 300,000-350,000 ounces of gold annually over a 20-year mine life. The asset has strong economics with an estimated IRR of 16% and NPV of $2.3 billion at a 7% discount rate.While positive economic studies and engineering de-risking are complete, Pebble was denied a key permit in late 2020. Thiessen stated political factors in an election year likely influenced what should have been a science-based decision. Northern Dynasty has subsequently filed an appeal and legal challenge.A pending Supreme Court decision could help overturn an EPA determination against Pebble as soon as 2023. Thiessen sees several upcoming potential catalysts that could unlock permitting and development of one of the world's premier undeveloped copper-gold resources.In the interim, Northern Dynasty has $60 million from a recent royalty sale to fund critical path work. Thiessen noted Pebble remains a highly coveted asset that senior miners around the world would like to develop when permitting risks are resolved.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Nic Earner, CEO of Alkane Resources (ASX:ALK)Recording date: 18th September 2023Alkane Resources Managing Director, Nic Earner, provided an update on the Australian gold miner in an interview at the Denver Gold Forum conference. Alkane currently operates the Tomingley Gold Mine in New South Wales, which produced around 70,000 ounces in 2021 at an all-in sustaining-cost under A$1,600/oz.Looking ahead, Earner expects Tomingley production to increase in 2022 and costs to rise to A$1,750-2,100/oz. This reflects inflationary pressures in Australia on items like power, fuel, steel, and reagents. Earner believes cost increases of around 30% represent a new baseline for the Australian gold sector.Alkane is using cash flow from Tomingley to advance exploration at its Boda-Kaiser copper-gold porphyry project, also in New South Wales. Boda-Kaiser currently hosts about 15 million ounce gold equivalent resources. Upcoming catalysts include a resource upgrade at Boda expected this quarter and initial resources at Kaiser in Q1 2023.To fully realize Boda-Kaiser's value, Alkane is considering strategic partnerships, minority investments, or even a potential split into separate gold and copper-focused entities. Earner believes Alkane's track record of exploration success and experience in project development position it strongly.The goal remains growing Tomingley's production profile while advancing Boda-Kaiser to be construction-ready around 2026. This is expected to transform Alkane into a major dividend-paying gold producer. In the interim, Earner stressed profitable gold production and exploration success as key pillars to attracting investors seeking leverage to the upside.

Interview with Christian Ervin Easterday, Managing Director & CEO of Hot Chili LtdOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/hot-chili-hch-another-non-dilutive-financing-to-advance-copper-production-3262Recording date: 15th September 2023Hot Chili (ASX:HCH) is advancing one of the largest new copper projects globally, with a clear growth strategy to position itself as a major leveraged play on rising copper prices this decade.In a recent interview, CEO Christian Easterday outlined plans to expand the resource base and production profile at the Costa Fuego copper-gold project in Chile. The aim is to boost output from a PEA-stage 95,000 tonnes per annum of copper towards 150,000 tonnes per annum. An active 30,000 metre drill program and M&A strategy underpin this growth pivot.The low elevation, low strip ratio project already boasts competitive economics at baseline copper prices. But most importantly, Hot Chili's scale provides maximum exposure for shareholders as the copper market tightens. The company estimates a $0.50/lb rise in copper adds $3.3 billion in post-tax NPV and could drive the share price up to A$11.Key advantages include fully permitted access to low-cost seawater, rather than scarce freshwater sources. This provides a cost edge over peers and also opens up a potential water utility business for the region. Early stage work is underway to evaluate this opportunity.Additionally, Hot Chili is well advanced on baseline environmental studies required for permitting. The aim is to submit an EIA in 2023 and reach a construction decision in 2026, when copper markets are forecast to be very tight. First production is targeted for 2028-2030.The company is well funded, with A$24 million in cash following a royalty deal with Franco-Nevada. This leaves flexibility for further acquisitions and drill programs to expand resources at Costa Fuego. Conversations are also underway with majors, traders like Glencore, institutional investors, and automakers about strategic partnerships.In summary, Hot Chili offers investors leveraged exposure to copper via one of the few new projects of scale that can reach production before 2030. The large resource base, exploration upside, and advantages around water position it strongly against peers. While further funding will be required, the company has several options to create value, including potential spin-outs of the water rights. As copper markets tighten in the electrification era, Hot Chili's pivot to growth places it amongst the most exciting copper developers globally.—View Hot Chili's Company Profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/hot-chili-limitedSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The company has intersected high-grade mineralizationstarting at surface, with impressive bulk tonnage potential.In a recent interview, Executive Chairman Ari Sussman explained why Collective's share price has strongly outperformed peers despite weak markets. The project contains a porphyry system overprinted by high-grade gold-silver veins, yielding exceptional grades over long intervals. Five of six initial targets have resulted in discoveries.With approximately $23 million in cash, Collective is fully funded for two years of drilling at its current pace. While additional rigs could accelerate the program, the company is taking a prudent approach given tight equity markets. The aim is to systematically test and expand the multiple zones at Guayabales.According to Sussman, the deposit shows all the hallmarks of a future mine based on drill results improving with depth and scale. Once the system is fully defined, the company will shift focus to infill drilling and formal economic studies.Given Sussman's track record of success in Colombia, including the $2 billion takeover of Continental Gold in 2020, Collective is positioned to create significant value at Guayabales. The company offers leverage to further high-grade results as drilling continues to delineate a potentially world-class copper-gold district.With approx. 45% insider ownership and minimal institutional presence, Collective has room to broaden its share registry over time. The current share price does not reflect the project's outstanding early potential. But systematic exploration and positive results could attract increasing investor interest in a recovering market.—View Collective Mining's Company Profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/collective-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Let's talk about the dark side of zinc. Zinc is one of the most important trace minerals for your hair. But having too much zinc can be just as damaging to your hair as zinc deficiency. Zinc is a trace mineral, and it's involved in over 300 different enzymes. Zinc is needed to support the growth of hair follicles. With low zinc, you could experience hair loss. Zinc is also needed for collagen and keratin. If you're deficient in zinc, you could notice thin and brittle hair. Having too much zinc can lead to copper deficiency. The more zinc you take, the more copper you need. Copper is also involved in hair growth, hair color, and the structural integrity of the hair. The most zinc an adult could take without experiencing any side effects is roughly about 40 mg per day. Symptoms of zinc toxicity can include: • Nausea • Vomiting • Decreased appetite • Abdominal cramps • Diarrhea • Headaches But, you may need even higher amounts of zinc short-term for certain health problems. The key is to make sure you always consume enough copper as well. The correct zinc-to-copper ratio is roughly ten to one. It's important to remember that when you consume foods high in zinc, your body only absorbs 20 to 40 percent of it. There are a lot of various things that decrease the absorption of zinc. It's important to avoid things that prevent the absorption of zinc and consume foods high in zinc. You may also want to consider a zinc supplement as well as make sure you're getting plenty of copper.

Interview with David Kelley, President & CEO of Chakana Copper Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/chakana-copper-tsxvperu-permit-approval-for-high-grade-drilling-3284Recording date: 13th September 2023Lima, Peru - Chakana Copper Corp. (TSXV:PERU) is rapidly advancing its flagship Soledad project, a high-grade gold-copper-silver discovery located in the prolific Ancash mining province of central Peru. Strategically positioned 35km south of Barrick's Pierina mine, Soledad hosts near surface mineralization amenable to low-cost open pit mining.A maiden resource estimate outlines 109,000 ounces of gold equivalent grading 8.8 g/t AuEq within 650,000 tonnes starting at surface. This initial resource is based on shallow drilling at just seven breccia pipes within a 2km by 1km area, representing only 28% of the targets identified to date. Significant exploration upside remains to substantially expand resources by additional drilling at depth and testing new breccia pipes identified across the property.In 2019 Gold Fields Limited (NYSE:GFI) recognized this potential by investing $12 million into Chakana through a strategic partnership agreement. Gold Fields currently owns a 15% interest in Soledad. Their extensive due diligence validated the potential to delineate a much larger high-grade gold system.Chakana is now fully permitted to drill across the entire breccia pipe field and test additional compelling targets, most notably the Paloma porphyry target. Measuring 2.5km by 1km, Paloma exhibits a strong geophysical and geochemical signature typical of a mineralized porphyry system. The top of this anomaly starts approximately 125m below surface and provides a readily drillable target.A 4,000m drill campaign is planned for early 2023, with nine holes dedicated to testing the core of the Paloma porphyry target. Additional drilling will expand the high-grade resources around known breccia pipes. This drill program is designed to significantly increase resources and test the project's tier-one discovery potential as endorsed by strategic partner Gold Fields.Renewed political stability in Peru is enticing mining investment back to the country following a volatile period since 2020. Major mining companies are now advancing multi-billion dollar projects, including the $5.3 billion Quellaveco copper mine under development by Rio Tinto and First Quantum. This reinforces Peru's status as a premier global copper producer and stable mining jurisdiction.Chakana is currently completing a capital raise to fund its planned 2023 drill program. Strategic partner Gold Fields has signaled their support to follow their investment with additional funding. Drilling is expected to start in early 2023 once financing is secured.The current depressed market environment provides an opportunity for investors to gain exposure ahead of extensive exploration news flow in the coming year. Chakana offers leverage to high-impact drilling in Peru's prolific mineral belts through a tight share structure and promising gold-copper project adjacent to multiple major mines.A significant discovery at the Paloma porphyry target would be transformational for Chakana, transitioning the project to a district-scale opportunity. Prospective investors can position themselves ahead of this potential value-creating event. With drilling slated to start shortly, a clear path to demonstrate the Soledad project's world-class potential is expected over the coming year.—View Chakana Copper's Company Profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/chakana-copperSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Claudia Tornquist, President & CEO of Kodiak Copper (TSX-V:KDK)Recording date: 12th September 2023Kodiak Copper is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on copper porphyry projects in Canada and the United States. The company's flagship asset is the MPD copper-gold porphyry project in south-central British Columbia, which shows potential to host a large-scale deposit. MPD has high-grade mineralization within a wide mineralized envelope and several other untested exploration targets.Claudia Tornquist, CEO of Kodiak Copper (TSXV:KDK), discusses the company's large-scale exploration program underway at the MPD copper-gold project in southern British Columbia. Unlike previous years focused solely on the high-grade Gate Zone discovery, Kodiak is now systematically testing multiple targets across the 14 km2 property. The goal is to delineate the next big discovery and build significant scale through a methodical exploration approach.Kodiak has an extensive database of over 50,000 meters of historic, shallow drilling at MPD. The Gate Zone was discovered by drilling deeper below this historic drilling, uncovering high-grade copper-gold mineralization missed near surface. Several large geophysical and geochemical targets have now been identified across the property, presenting an opportunity to replicate this exploration model.Up to 25,000 meters of drilling is planned for 2023, targeting at least 5 zones. Early results at the West Zone returned long intercepts of 500+ meters grading 0.2-0.4% copper equivalent, including high-grade zones. New copper-gold mineralization was discovered at depth, and importantly, mineralized breccia zones were intersected – indicating proximity to a copper-gold source. Assay results will steadily flow through year-end and into early 2024.While additional high-grade discoveries are the ultimate goal, Kodiak is also keen to demonstrate scale potential. Lower grade intercepts of 0.2-0.4% copper equivalent help build critical mass. The project is situated in an established mining region, where comparables like Copper Mountain mine lower grades of ~0.23% copper at large scale. Infrastructure, access and skilled local workforce provide low operating costs that support development of MPD's sizeable resource base.Significant drill results and increasing project scale will aim to attract interest from major mining companies. An intermediate resource target is approximately 10 billion pounds of copper, which requires additional discoveries and resource growth beyond the Gate Zone. Kodiak maintains a strong partnership with Teck Resources, its largest shareholder with 19.9% interest. Teck is supportive of Kodiak's copper-focused exploration strategy in BC.In summary, Kodiak Copper is advancing a systematic, multi-target exploration program to build on its initial high-grade discovery at MPD and outline the project's meaningful scale potential. Assay results from the extensive 2023 drill campaign will act as key catalysts in the year ahead.

Did you know that your hair is a window into your body and into the inner workings of your biochemistry? It provides insight into key minerals that are missing in your body and also toxic elements like mercury, arsenic, lead, and cadmium. It can help you find unique imbalances that can be the underlying stressors of many major health issues, including ADHD.  In this episode of the Soaring Child podcast, we are talking all about HTMA testing, which stands for hair tissue mineral analysis. My guest is a functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, a board certified holistic health practitioner, an HTMA practitioner and educator, a multi-time kettlebell sport world champion, and a health, wellness, and fitness advocate.  Lisa Pitel-Killah discovered HTMA testing and chose to specialize in mineral balance after this specific diagnostic test identified the true underlying stressor of her chronic fatigue and estrogen dominance. Lisa works exclusively with HTMA and has helped thousands dig to the underlying stressor of health issues by focusing on mineral balance and a holistic approach. Lisa is the founder of Vykon Health, which produces custom natural supplements used by health professionals, including myself, around the globe.  If you're curious about HTMA testing and how it might benefit your child with ADHD, tune in to this episode.    Key Takeaways: [4:17] What is HTMA? [7:08] Minerals the HTMA test looks at [9:37] Patterns the HTMA test looks for [13:12] How does copper affect ADHD? [16:18] Potential sources of copper overload [19:22] The Mineral Wheel [22:10] Copper dumping [24:42] How heavy metals show up on HTMA tests [32:18] Where to find Lisa online   Memorable Moments: ”Hair tissue mineral analysis has been around for decades, and it really came to light in the 70's.” ”It gives us a little bit of a deeper picture, and it brings to light things sometimes months or even years before they will show up in blood.” “It's a tissue biopsy of hair.” “When I talk about mineral balance, it's about building and supporting the foundation.” ”The big 4 minerals we call them are calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium.” ”It's all about balance.” ”One of the first things to upset that balance is - guess what - stress.” ”HTMA patterns are dynamic. They can change. As we start to balance things, those patterns can change.” ”The first response to heavy metals is to give the body the minerals it's missing or that are out of balance because that's going to allow the body to have what it needs to do its job.”   How to Connect with Lisa Pitel-Killah Website: https://www.lisapitelkillah.com/    Dana Kay Resources: Website: https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/  Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ADHDThriveInstitute/  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/adhdthriveinstitute/  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/ADHDThriveInstitute  LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/adhd-thrive-institute/mycompany/  Pinterest: https://www.pinterest.ph/adhdthriveinstitute/  Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@adhd_thriveinstitute    International Best Selling Book, Thriving with ADHD – https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/book/  Free Reduce ADHD Symptoms Naturally Masterclass – https://bit.ly/3GAbFQl   ADHD Parenting Course – https://info.adhdthriveinstitute.com/parentingadhd ADHD Thrive Method 4 Kids Program – https://adhdthriveinstitute.com/packages Artwork

Recording date: 1st September 2023Same comment as our last call - Nickel continues to bounce along the bottom of $20,000-$22,000 ($9-$10/lb) range where it's been since early June and has only briefly broken $9/lb.  LME inventories remain near multi-year lows.China is still split on 2 key markets – sulphate for battery continues to tread water, while stainless continues to edge higher, again despite lots of noise on Chinese weakness with both stainless prices and NPI prices moving higher once again. Things are quiet here in summer, howeverSPC Nickel, who consolidated property in Sudbury from Vale, hit some interesting intervals.  Talked in the past about a good exploration team that is in the same neighbourhood as Magna Mining Sudbury property.Hole WG-23-047, intersected a high-grade section that returned 1.27% Ni, 0.47% Cu over 18.00 metres from 245m to 263m within a thick zone of nickel and copper mineralization grading 0.70% Ni, 0.32% Cu over 50m from 221m to 271m.Canada Nickel made Mann Northwest announcement - is another major discovery One of 11 targets larger than Crawford – target geophysical footprint of 6km2 is more than triple the size of Crawford footprint.The first 8 holes drilled at Mann Northwest intersected well-mineralized, multi-hundred-metre intervals of mineralized peridotite and minor dunite across a combined strike length of 2.7 kilometres  - all holes were largely mineralized across the entire core length.  Initial mineralogy samples showed well-serpentinized material with heazlewoodite and pentlandite dominant nickel minerals.Target remains open in all directions.The big thing to talk about this week is Chalice Mining PEA – market cap has fallen by +30%.  They are the big boy with a pre-announcement market cap of $1.8 billion (which was already higher), so we need to say it like it is – particularly as PEA had some “offensive/aggressive” assumptions. Headline numbers all look great – but the market quickly realized some very aggressive assumptions.Chalice Mining just published a PEA, a month earlier than Canada Nickel will be publishing their Feasibility Study (FS) on Crawford – their deadline for FS is 2.5-years from now.Their biggest issue is the price deck:Palladium price (over ½ revenue) was $2,000 – today's price is $1,200. Remember palladium's main use is now being phased out as EV market reduces the need for catalytic converterNickel price was $24,000 –($11/lb) – we'll probably be looking at the $20-$21,000 range. Copper price was $11,000 ($5/lb) – copper prices have NEVER been this highWhen looking at the value at today's price deck – you get to a value somewhere between negative and $500 million – Remember their market cap is still $1.3 billion!!Chalice and  Canada Nickel are interesting comparisons.  Gonneville was discovered about the same time as Crawford so a good yardstick – the focus was nickel initially, but it turned out to be mostly PGE deposit with a scale about 1/3 less than Crawford and half the mine life.Another thing that is interesting is capex – we've indicated our capex will likely be in $US1.8-1.9 billion range, Chalice is getting 1/3 bigger mine/mill operation, a leach plant, a hydromet plant for 10% LESS cost than Canada Nickel in a higher cost jurisdiction.When the price deck is crazy aggressive, raises questions around what of the other 300-400 assumptions in there are also very aggressive! Will need a reset of expectations, and more than likely, a new owner who can take advantage of this fall from grace.I'll State it AgainWe have talked about it in the past, but want to make sure watchers are very clear on this point.A PEA IS ONLY AS GOOD AS THE ENGINEERING FIRM WRITING THE REPORT.  REMEMBER THERE ARE ENGINEERING COMPANIES THAT ALMOST NEVER BUILD PROJECTS, SO WRITING REPORTS IS THEIR BUSINESS AND IF THEY DON'T GIVE MINING COMPANIES THE ANSWERS THEY WANT, THEY DON'T GET THE BUSINESS.MOST FRUSTRATING FOR ME, WHEN INVESTORS SAY WHY NOT PROJECT HAVE MID-20% IRR?  REALITY IS THAT WITH VERY FEW EXCEPTIONS – ONLY GET THOSE RESULTS FOR SMALLER, HIGH-GRADE DEPOSITS IN TOUGH JURISDICTIONS, GENERALLY WITH A COMPARATIVELY SHORT LIFE OF MINE.  IF BUILDING A MINE IN PLACE THAT GOVERNMENT WON'T TAKE IT AND A SCALE MAJORS WANT, BASE METALS PROJECTS ARE EITHER SIDE OF MID-TEENS IRR.

This episode features an interview with Morgan Norman, Chief Marketing Officer at Dialpad. Previously, Morgan was a marketing executive at Copper, Zuora, NetSuite, and Microsoft. He has spent his career marketing for both startups to scale-ups and has helped companies grow to more than $1 billion in revenue.In this episode, Kailey sits down with Morgan to discuss the importance of onboarding, product-led growth models, and marketing AI products in a saturated market.-------------------Key Takeaways:Getting users to adopt AI is all about presenting them with features that work best for them. Instead of throwing all of the features at them, educate them on a few options that are interesting to them and will help their business thrive.When a user is moving to a PLG model, it's important to consider their cognitive load. In order to avoid overwhelming them, scale back the number of questions you're asking them and the number of decisions you're wanting them to make. Then, confirm with the user that they feel confident and successful in the choices they've made.When users are onboarding, you have to balance when to engage with them and when to let them learn the product on their own. Figure out what type of user they are, what segment, and what industry to decide which type of engagement will work best.-------------------“The way I really think about PLG, at the top level, is cognitive load. Are you overwhelming the user? How many decisions are you asking them to make? The first thing is to reduce the cognitive load as much as possible from a visual perspective and also a step perspective. The next piece on that is user confirmation. Confirming to the user that they've done the right thing and that they feel successful.” – Morgan Norman-------------------Episode Timestamps:‍*(02:19) - Morgan's career journey*(08:41) - How Dialpad is implementing AI*(19:25) - How PLG is being used to educate users and build marketing programs*(23:26) - How Morgan defines “good data”*(29:41) - How Dialpad is increasing conversion*(34:36) - An example of another company doing it right with customer engagement (hint: it's Airtable, monday, Asana)*(41:13) - Morgan's recommendations for upleveling customer experience strategies-------------------Links:Connect with Morgan on LinkedInConnect with Kailey on LinkedInLearn more about Caspian Studios-------------------SponsorGood Data, Better Marketing is brought to you by Twilio Segment.
