Novo Resources Corp Executive Co-Chairman Mike Spreadborough and Kas De Luca, the company's Exploration General Manager Kas De Luca joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's latest exploration target update at its Belltopper gold project in Victoria, highlighting a significant upgrade to the project's potential and outlining plans for renewed drilling in 2026. The Belltopper project is located approximately 60 kilometres south of Agnico Eagle's Fosterville gold mine and lies within the highly prospective Bendigo Tectonic Zone, one of Victoria's most prolific gold-producing regions. De Luca explained that Novo has undertaken an extensive integration of historical datasets, including legacy underground workings, into a comprehensive and detailed 3D geological model to better inform its exploration strategy. “We've captured it all in a really good 3D model, so it really speaks to both the geology and the mineralisation,” De Luca said, noting that the model has significantly improved the company's understanding of the controls on gold mineralisation at Belltopper. As a result of this work, Novo has now defined eight prospective quartz reef systems across the project area, with several reefs extending up to two kilometres along strike at surface. The updated 2026 exploration target outlines a high-case scenario of up to 880,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 8.9 grams per tonne, representing a 48% increase compared with the previous exploration model. Spreadborough said the upgraded exploration target and improved geological confidence have positioned the company to advance the project toward the next phase. Novo is now seeking the necessary approvals and is planning to recommence drilling in the third quarter of 2026. “We're planning to go back drilling starting in July and continue through the rest of the year,” Spreadborough said, adding that the upcoming program is designed to test the most prospective reefs identified by the updated model and further unlock the project's discovery potential. #proactiveinvestors #novoresources #asx #nvo #tsx #nvo #otcqb #nsrpf #NovoResources #BelltopperProject #VictoriaGold #GoldExploration #BendigoTectonicZone #QuartzReef #3DGeology #MiningExploration #Drilling2026 #GoldMineralisation #HighGradeGold #ResourceUpgrade #PreciousMetals #AustralianMining #FutureMines

Standard Uranium CEO Jon Bey and Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive on site at the company's Corvo Project, where its maiden drill campaign is now underway—marking a significant exploration milestone for the company. The Corvo Uranium Project is subject to a three-year earn-in option agreement with Aventis Energy, under which Aventis may earn up to a 75% interest in the project by funding C$6 million in exploration expenditures over the earn-in period. The partnership provides financial support to aggressively advance exploration while allowing Standard Uranium to retain meaningful exposure to potential discovery success. The inaugural drill program is expected to consist of approximately 2,500 to 3,000 metres across 8 to 10 diamond drill holes. The campaign is targeting shallow, high-grade basement-hosted uranium mineralization, beginning with the Manhattan target area. The drill program is anticipated to run for up to six weeks. The company is utilizing road-accessible, skid-supported diamond drilling, focusing on high-priority uranium targets that have been refined through extensive geophysical surveys completed in 2025. These surveys—including advanced electromagnetic and gravity datasets—have significantly enhanced the company's understanding of subsurface structures and uranium-bearing corridors across the property. Drilling will specifically test prospective Xcite™ electromagnetic conductor corridors that are overlain by high-resolution ground gravity data. The exploration thesis centers on identifying major conductor trends associated with cross-cutting fault systems and confirmed surficial radioactivity within favourable uranium host rocks. Recent prospecting efforts have further validated these targets, confirming strong surface radioactivity in key areas. Management emphasized that the integration of modern geophysics with surface confirmation work has sharpened drill targeting and positioned the company to effectively test multiple high-priority zones during this maiden campaign. #proactiveinvestors #standarduraniumltd #tsxv #stnd #otcqb #sttdf #mining #uranium #corvoproject #UraniumExploration #MaidenDrillProgram #BasementHosted #HighGradeUranium #AthabascaBasin #EnergyTransition #NuclearEnergy #CriticalMinerals #DiamondDrilling #Geophysics #XciteEM #AventisEnergy #ResourceDiscovery

Interview with Patrick Cruickshank, Director & CEO of Nine Mile MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/nine-mile-metals-csenine-vms-drilling-unlocks-expansion-potential-5410Recording date: 5th February 2026Nine Miles Metals (CSE: NINE) is emerging as a significant explorer in New Brunswick's Bathurst Mining Camp, controlling 140 square kilometers of continuous land across four volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) projects. Following a transformative year of advanced geophysical work, CEO Patrick Cruickshank has outlined an aggressive 2026 exploration strategy backed by recently completed $5.5 million financing providing two years of capital.The company's flagship Nine Mile Brook project hosts what Cruickshank describes as the highest-grade lens ever recorded in Bathurst: 12% copper, 38% lead-zinc, 1,200 grams per ton silver, and 2.4 grams per ton gold over 15 meters of solid mineralization. While these exceptional grades present processing challenges—the hybrid nature requires specialized milling solutions—the company is developing a unique bulk sample processing approach with updates expected shortly.The historic Wedge mine represents a different opportunity. This past-producing deposit operated by Caminco in the 1950s-60s was abandoned when its head pillar collapsed, leaving two-thirds of known mineralization in place. Recent drilling discovered an eastern extension with intercepts up to 134 meters, while a just-completed program tested depth and southwestern extensions with assays pending. Management targets proving 7-10 million tons at Wedge to reach economic thresholds.Nine Miles Metals' competitive edge lies in systematic application of modern technology. The company flew 1,400 line kilometers of UAV drone geophysics, identifying 11 new mineralized trends. This approach delivered an 80% drill success rate at California Lake East, hitting mineralization in eight of ten holes.With 185 million shares outstanding, reduced overhead ($300,000 annual savings from office relocation), and drilling costs of just $85-100 per meter in a jurisdiction offering 30-day permitting, the company is positioned to execute multiple 2026 catalysts: pending Wedge assays, April drilling resumption at both Nine Mile Brook and Wedge, and government-funded California Lake exploration—all while maintaining optionality for strategic partnerships or sector consolidation.View Nine Mile Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/nine-mile-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about encouraging high-grade tin results from ongoing drilling at the company's Kalayi prospect and what investors should expect next as work progresses across the wider project area. Barrett explained that recent deeper drill holes at Kalayi have continued to return strong grades, with indications that grades are improving with depth, in line with the company's expectations and structural model. He noted that several metres of drilling had shown grades averaging around 8%, which he described as “very good” and comparable to those seen at Alphamin's Mpama mine. According to Barrett, this reinforces confidence that Kalayi sits on the same geological trend and exhibits similar characteristics. Discussing the next steps, Barrett said Rome Resources is currently drilling additional deeper holes at Kalayi and is also considering a vertical hole to test the system further at depth. Once drilling at Kalayi is completed, the company plans to move rigs to Mont Agoma. Barrett outlined that upcoming work there will focus on extending the known tin system deeper while also testing potential copper mineralisation to the north. He said recent full-element assay work has helped simplify the geological model and provided clearer guidance on where the mineralisation is sitting. Looking ahead, Barrett highlighted that investors should watch for regular drill results as multiple holes are currently underway, with updates expected on a frequent basis if progress continues as planned.

Shares in Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF, FRA:TMU) managing director Richard Belcher talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest exploration results from the company's Mushima North project in Zambia. The update includes Tertiary's highest-grade silver-copper intersection to date, a key milestone for the company. Belcher explained that although the Phase 3 drilling program was cut short by early seasonal rains, the results are significant. “These holes have been released today, or the assays were released, really support the direction this project's going in,” he said, pointing to both the confirmed near-surface mineralisation and new evidence of depth extension to 103 metres. Target A1 now shows a surface footprint of 450m by 400m, with Belcher noting the mineralisation begins just a few metres below the soil layer. The depth extension opens the door to assessing underlying sulfide potential – an exciting development comparable to other projects in Zambia. With drilling on pause, Tertiary has fast-tracked the development of an exploration target. Belcher said, “We're really trying a fast track now towards a mineral resource,” using these new results to inform 3D modelling of grade and tonnage potential. Drilling is set to resume in the dry season, with updated plans reflecting this new data. Beyond Mushima North, Tertiary is progressing with other joint ventures in Zambia, with updates anticipated as field activities begin. For more videos like this, visit Proactive's YouTube channel.

Keith Bodnarchuk, President and CEO, and Andy Carmichael, VP of Exploration of Cosa Resources Corp. (TSXV: COSA) (OTCQB: COSAF) (FSE: SSKU) , both join me to review the news released on January 28th which announced drilling has commenced at the Company's Darby project, with drilling at Murphy Lake North (MLN) to follow. Darby and MLN are joint ventures between Cosa and Denison Mines Corp. (TSX: DML) (NYSE American: DNN) and are located 10 kilometres west of Cameco's Cigar Lake Mine and three kilometres east of IsoEnergy's Hurricane Deposit, respectively, in the eastern Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Cosa is the operator of both projects and holds a 70% interest with Denison holding a 30% interest in each.   Keith starts us up highlighting the prospective geology and historic exploration work that made the Darby Project a vital component of the JV transaction with Denison. The recent identification of new drill targets as results from further analysis supports Cosa's thesis that Darby is a mature, discovery-ready project that will receive drilling targeting uranium mineralization in the year to come.   We outline that approximately 2,500 metres are planned at Darby in winter 2026 to test initial priority targets identified that came as a result of extensive historical drill core and data review at the Delta and Charlie trends by Cosa's Chairman Steve Blower and VP Exploration Andy Carmichael; as they relogged all historical Darby drill holes from prior project operators in June of this year. Their work confirmed desktop interpretations and generated immediate follow-up targets.   Andy outlines that Priority targets are the immediate vicinities of drill holes which intersected zones of coincident sandstone alteration and anomalous uranium content proximal to significant graphitic basement faults. Up to four initial target areas will be evaluated during winter 2026.   Drilling plans at MLN will kick off after the Darby drilling is completed, and will comprise approximately 1,200 metres and will follow up summer 2025 results at the Cyclone trend where broad zones of structure and alteration were intersected over a two-kilometre strike length. Drilling will target a 1,200-metre gap in existing drilling where a lake prevents summer access. Drilling will also test a potential trend parallel to and approximately 100 metres south of Cyclone interpreted from intensely graphitic rocks and faulting intersected in the basement of MLN25-007.    If you have any questions for Keith or Andy regarding Cosa Resources, then please email them to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Cosa Resources   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

[Recorded January 28th, 2026] Dr. Thomas Mumford, President of Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT) (OTCQB:SCTSF), joins us to review some recent high-grade gold assay results at both the Blueberry Contact Zone and Scottie Gold Mine area from the 2025 exploration season.  Additionally, we get an update on the targeting preparation for the largest drill program to date planned in 2026, and the Feasibility Study workstreams underway at the Scottie Gold Mine Project; located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia.   2025 drilling continues to deliver excellent results from the Blueberry Contact Zone. Hole SR25-420 intersected 34.3 grams per tonne “g/t” gold over 3.30 metres, including a high-grade interval of 90.8 g/t gold over 1.0 metres within the Lemoffe vein zone. Hole SR25-424 intersected 9.97 g/t gold over 9.70 metres, including 21.1 g/t gold over 2.45 metres. Of the 27,000 metres drilled in 2025, only ~16,000 metres have been reported to date. There are still 11,000 meters of drilling from the Blueberry Contact Zone to release from last year's program, once received back from the assay lab.   Drilling continues to deliver at the Scottie Gold Mine area from last year's drill program. Hole SR25-445 intersected 14.8 grams per tonne “g/t” gold over 9.80 metres, including a high-grade interval of 69.8 g/t gold over 2.0 metres within the M-Zone. Additional strong M-Zone results include 21.1 g/t gold and 50.6 g/t silver over 3.45 metres in hole SR25-410 and 17.6 g/t gold over 4.40 metres in hole SR25-439. Multiple drill holes (SR25-408, 419, 427 and 445) also intersected gold mineralization within the Wolf Zone, highlighted by an intercept of 7.56 g/t gold over 1.65 metres in hole SR25-408. These results represent the conclusion of 2025 drill results from the Scottie Gold Mine and associated vein zones, i.e., P-, M-, N-, L-, and Wolf Zones.   The Company is planning to initiate a ~50,000 meter drill program for 2026, which will be the largest exploration program to date.  More information will be detailed once all the 2025 drill results from the Blueberry Contact Zone have been assimilated into the geological model.    The recent PEA outlined a robust Direct-Ship Ore (“DSO”) development scenario for the Scottie Gold Mine Project, with strong economics and leverage to the current gold price environment, and additional upside potential through local toll milling.  The DSO process was successfully demonstrated during this trial mining and Bulk Sample, which was mined at the Bend Vein pit at the Scottie Gold Mine Project, then mucked, visually sorted, and crushed over the 2025 summer season.   90% of the payment from the bulk sample has already been received, with the final 10% payment still due.  It will reconcile any difference between estimated and final ounces and will be priced based on metal values at the time grades are finalized and agreed upon.  It is estimated that gold sold will have generated a net profit of ~CAD$9Million for the Company.   Thomas outlines the plan to move straight into work streams for a Feasibility Study (FS), with actual cost estimates and more detailed economics, as the next major economic study to be undertaken.  The FS is slated to take about 8-10 months after all the 2025 drill results from the 27,309 meter program are all returned and integrated into their updated resource model.  The Company is also collecting data for environmental baseline studies in preparation for the upcoming permitting process.    Click here to follow the latest news from Scottie Resources   If you have any questions for Thomas regarding Scottie Resources, then please email us at Fleck@kereport.com or  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Scottie Resources at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.       For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Interview with Scott Caithness, Managing Director of Hawk Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/hawk-resources-asxhwk-december-drilling-targets-five-prospects-in-historic-copper-district-8487Recording date: 20th January 2026Hawk Resources has successfully raised A$5 million to fund an aggressive exploration campaign across two high-potential critical minerals projects, with the capital raise closing within an hour of opening due to strong investor demand. The oversubscribed raise demonstrates market confidence in the company's dual-pronged strategy targeting near-term copper-gold catalysts in Utah alongside a potentially transformational scandium opportunity in Western Australia.Managing Director Scott Caithness confirmed drilling has commenced at the company's flagship Cactus copper-gold project in Utah, with a 4,000-meter program testing six previously undrilled targets. The project carries significant historical pedigree, having been mined between 1905 and 1920 at grades of 2% copper with meaningful gold credits. Recent verification drilling by Hawk intersected 30 meters at 1.8% copper from surface, confirming the presence of high-grade mineralisation that remains accessible for modern exploration techniques.The company has allocated approximately A$3 million toward the Cactus drilling campaign, with results expected to flow from March 2026 onwards. Hawk's systematic approach integrates geophysical data, historical drilling records, and the first-ever project-wide soil sampling program to identify high-priority targets. The Copperopolis target exemplifies this methodology—a large chargeability anomaly with encouraging surface geochemistry that has never been drill-tested, despite a 1974 hole nearby intersecting 30 meters at 2% copper.Complementing the Utah copper focus, Hawk has reserved A$1-1.5 million to advance its recently acquired scandium project in Western Australia. The asset features a 4 kilometer by 7 kilometer soil anomaly with scandium grades exceeding 500 parts per million, reaching peaks of 1,200 ppm in a commodity currently worth $3,400 per kilogram. Historical shallow drilling intersected significant scandium mineralisation, though verification through laboratory assays remains the immediate priority.Caithness positions Hawk as a critical metals company with copper focus, offering investors exposure to supply-constrained commodities essential for electrification and advanced manufacturing while maintaining strategic optionality through its diversified project portfolio.View Hawk Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/alderan-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, Ian Wagner interviews Cesar Gonzalez, Executive Chair of Bonterra Resources, discussing the company's recent developments, including a CRA audit related to flow-through financing, the upcoming drilling plans for 2026, and the future prospects of the joint venture with Gold Fields. The conversation highlights the challenges and opportunities in the gold mining sector, particularly in the Abitibi region of Canada, amidst rising gold prices.

Interview with Philippe Cloutier, President & CEO of Cartier Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cartier-resources-tsxvecr-agnico-backed-junior-targets-mining-camp-scale-gold-discovery-8319Recording date: 19th January 2026Cartier Resources represents a compelling investment opportunity in Canadian gold exploration, combining exceptional drilling economics, strategic backing from Agnico Eagle Mines, and systematic execution of a mining camp-scale discovery programme across 15 kilometres of Quebec's prolific Cadillac Fault.The investment thesis centres on resource growth from the current 3.2 million ounce baseline at the flagship Chimo Mine toward 4-5 million ounces by year-end 2026, with longer-term potential for 12-15 million ounces across multiple deposits. Independent consultants have formally identified exploration targets for an additional 1.1 million ounces achievable through disciplined drilling, validating management's systematic approach to proving up a mining camp rather than a single-asset development story.Cartier's operational advantages stem directly from location within Val-d'Or's established mining infrastructure. The company has secured all-in drilling costs of C$105-110 per metre—from site preparation through assay results to press release—representing exceptional value in the current inflationary environment. This cost structure enables an aggressive 250,000-metre programme with two rigs currently operating 24/7 and plans to deploy four to six additional rigs, matching in one year the total drilling accomplished over the previous decade.Strategic validation from Agnico Eagle, which holds a 27% stake acquired through its O3 Mining purchase, provides both financial support and technical credibility. Monthly technical committee meetings enable rapid reallocation of drilling resources based on emerging results, whilst Agnico's involvement significantly enhances Cartier's profile amongst institutional investors who view major mining company participation at the exploration stage as validation of project quality and future acquisition potential.The company has initiated critical de-risking studies that progressively enhance project economics. Independent metallurgical testwork targets 96-97% gold recovery rates versus historic 93% recoveries, whilst evaluating toll-milling opportunities at four different processing facilities within 60 kilometres. Establishing toll-milling arrangements could reduce capital expenditure by approximately C$120 million by eliminating dedicated mill construction requirements. Environmental baseline studies and a preliminary economic assessment scheduled for 2026 delivery provide the technical foundation for various development scenarios.Cartier's recent surpassing of C$100 million market capitalisation represented a critical threshold that unlocked institutional investor access previously unavailable. The company has traded over 80 million shares since July 2025, representing complete shareholder base rotation toward sophisticated investors with longer time horizons and larger position sizes. This evolution provides improved liquidity, reduced volatility, and establishes the foundation for additional institutional participation as exploration objectives are achieved.Management has demonstrated disciplined capital allocation by optioning three non-core Windfall District projects to Exploits Discovery for C$2 million cash, nearly 10 million shares, and retained royalties whilst maintaining singular focus on the Cadillac Project. Integration of AI-driven targeting methodologies has already validated discoveries like the Contact zone, accelerating exploration timelines by six to eight months compared to traditional approaches.With C$10 million in treasury supporting aggressive drilling without near-term dilution, gold prices sustained above US$4,600 per ounce dramatically improving project economics, and multiple catalysts including ongoing drill results, metallurgical studies, and year-end PEA delivery, Cartier offers substantial upside leverage at current valuations. The company trades at significant discount to peers with comparable resource bases despite superior jurisdictional advantages, strategic backing, and cost structure. For investors seeking exposure to Abitibi gold discovery potential with clearly defined catalysts and multiple value realisation pathways, Cartier Resources represents a compelling core holding within precious metals portfolios during a critical value inflection period.View Cartier Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cartier-resources-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this company update, we sit down with Mike Burke, Director and Vice President of Corporate Development at Sitka Gold (TSX.V:SIG | OTCQB:SITKF | Frankfurt:1RF), to recap a transformative 2025 and look ahead to an even larger 2026 drill program. Key discussion points include: 2025 Resource Growth at Blackjack - Resource expansion to over 2 million ounces of gold across indicated and inferred categories, with improving grades and strong market response.

The old way of doing business would not have changed the global markets.What a day on the news Desk! In this edition of the Energy News Beat Stand Up, we cover several key stories.1. How President Trump changed the global oil market and his actions regarding Venezuela's oil exports. The transcript discusses how the Trump administration captured Venezuela's President Maduro and used new financial mechanisms to bypass the old system and fund Venezuela's oil exports.Add to the mix that OPEC is looking to change the pricing models and matrices to use production and refinery demand, oh, like going back to supply and demand basics. As OPEC and OPEC+ were unable to increase production even with higher quotas last year. How is OPEC going to handle the pricing when President Trump's Administration is managing the flow of oil for one of its members? Is the US now a de facto member of OPEC?The New Financial System Can Change the Entire Oil MarketSo the new financial mechanisms put in place are now accelerated through the use of Qatar's banking and the funding of Venezuelan oil money to bypass the old system, royalties, and ownership claims, all through a veil of legal protections.Norway's decision to award 57 new offshore oil and gas exploration permits reversed its previous plans to shut down the industry. The transcript highlights Norway's commitment to maintaining high levels of oil and gas production.3. The potential implications if the U.S. were to leverage its NATO membership to purchase Greenland. The transcript discusses the high financial and military costs Europe would face if the U.S. were to leave NATO. President Trump would not have to go to war if he cut a deal with them.Pay them in royalties, and it would be a slam dunk.4. A study showing that New England ratepayers could save $400-700 billion by replacing wind, solar, and nuclear power with natural gas and nuclear power.5. Tesla's progress in building a lithium refinery in Texas that will produce enough battery-grade lithium to power around 1 million electric vehicles per year.

In this company update, Garrett Ainsworth, President and CEO of District Metals (TSX-V: DMX | OTCQX: DMXCF), outlines the company's aggressive 2026 exploration and development plans in Sweden. Following the official lifting of the uranium exploration and mining moratorium on January 1, 2026, District Metals has transitioned from a "soft start" to full-scale advancement of its world-class portfolio. The company is now focused on the rapid de-risking of its flagship Viken Project and systematic testing of high-priority targets across its extensive Alum Shale and basement-hosted uranium properties. Key Discussion Points: Viken Project Advancement: The flagship project has commenced a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) targeted for completion in Q2 2026. This study is being led by P&E Mining Consultants and Mets Engineering Group to leverage their specialized expertise in Alum Shale metallurgy. Economic Impact Study: The company has retained BDO Canada to quantify regional tax revenues and job creation potential. This is a strategic move to secure the "social license" required for long-term project development. 2026 Drilling Campaign: A 5,000 to 7,000-meter program is planned, beginning in the northern woodlands and moving south toward Viken. The campaign will test 24 MobileMT conductive anomalies identified during 2025 geophysical surveys. District-Scale Strategy: Controlling nearly 150,000 hectares of Alum Shale properties, District plans to move directly into grid drilling if initial "scout" holes confirm thick mineralization, aiming to rapidly define new resources. Financial Position: The company enters the year with approximately C$9 million in cash and a 2026 work budget of C$5 to $6 million, remaining well-funded through potential warrant and option exercises.   If you have any follow up questions for Garrett please email me at Fleck@kereport.com.  Click here to visit the District Metals website to learn more about the Company - https://www.districtmetals.com/ -------------- For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:  The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/  Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/ Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Interview with Ippolito Ingo Cattaneo, CEO of Ajax ResourcesRecording date: 9th January 2026Ajax Resources plc, a London-listed natural resources investment company with a £6 million market capitalisation, has positioned itself as an opportunistic acquirer of undervalued South American mining projects. With £2.5 million in cash and a portfolio spanning Argentina and Brazil, the company is executing a strategy centred on acquiring technically advanced assets at significant discounts to their historical expenditure.CEO and largest shareholder Ippolito Ingo Cattaneo, who owns 18.38% of the company, explained the investment thesis: "The goal is to focus on assets that have a high historical expenditure. We acquire projects that have a latent value which simply hasn't been realised and opportunistically acquire them from companies that may have undergone board changes, strategy changes or are simply not performing."The company's flagship Eureka copper-gold project in Jujuy Province, Argentina, exemplifies this approach. Despite 400 years of artisanal mining history, the project has never been drill-tested with modern methods. Ajax acquired all 12 licenses from Bezant Resources for just £170,000—a fraction of the $8 million paid in 2010. Equipment is currently being mobilised for a 1,500-meter initial drilling program, with a maiden JORC-compliant resource estimate targeted for mid-2026.The recent acquisition of the Pereira Velho gold project from Appian Capital Advisor provides strategic validation. Appian, a major private equity group specialising in mining investments, accepted predominantly equity consideration and will become a significant shareholder—an unusual arrangement that endorses Ajax's capabilities. The project sits 20 kilometers from the Serrote mine, which Appian sold in May 2025 for $420 million after acquiring it for $30 million in 2018.Ajax's board-driven structure, with directors predominantly compensated in equity rather than cash, aligns management incentives with shareholder value creation. The company has raised approximately £3.6 million across three funding rounds since 2022, with the board consistently contributing significant capital. Cattaneo's ambitious target is clear: transform Ajax from its current £6 million valuation to a £100 million market capitalisation through disciplined execution and near-term production, leveraging Argentina's political transformation under President Milei and favorable copper market fundamentals.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

A 14-year-old from Milwaukee is a new host of a Beatles show on satellite radio. He's a non-speaker who learned to communicate through adaptive technology. And, as we continue to look back at some of our favorite stories of the year, we'll take you to the site of what could become a gold mine.

In this wide-ranging and candid conversation, Lance Roberts is joined by longtime friend and veteran television reporter Tom Zizka to discuss how media, markets, and economic reality have fundamentally changed over the past two decades. The discussion begins with the evolution of modern media—from the rise of social platforms and the "small screen" revolution to the growing pressures of monetization, speed, and narrative framing. Lance and Tom explore how storytelling has shifted from context-driven reporting to image-driven headlines, and what that means for public perception, trust, and accountability. From there, the conversation moves into markets and policy. Topics include the economic implications of Trump's re-election, why falling oil prices were driven more by markets than politics, and the disconnect between calls for expanded drilling and the reality of global oil gluts. The episode also examines farm subsidies, the critical role of farming and trucking in the U.S. economy, and why inflation—while unpopular—is often necessary for economic growth. The discussion extends to immigration, contrasting legal versus undocumented impacts on the economy, the power of imagery and narrative in shaping public opinion, and the widening wealth gap that continues to distort economic expectations. Lance and Tom also touch on cultural shifts, including the growing debate over college versus skilled trades, the rise of short-form video, and the increasingly complex checklist required for modern publication and media compliance. Blending humor, real-world reporting experience, and market insight, this episode offers a grounded look at how media narratives influence economic understanding—and why reality often looks very different once the headlines fade. 0:00 - INTRO 0:19 - The Tables are Turned 2:22 - Changes in the Media - the necessary evolution 4:30 - Media Monetization and The News 8:29 - The Advent of the Small Screen - Facebook 2010 11:12 - Dead People in Houston Bayous - the Bayou Butcher? 13:40 - Lance is a Cereal Killer 14:46- The Trump Re-election - What Did it Mean? 15:17 - Bringing Down Oil Prices - Markets Did That; Ending Restrictions on Drilling vs the Glut of Oil 19:50 - Texas Beef Production & Cow Tipping 21:46 - Immigration Methodology - Pictures & Narrative on Social Media, 24:13 - Immigration Impact on Economy - Legal vs Undocumented 29:45 - The Big Beautiful Bill or Big and Ugly 31:11 - Farm Aid Package - Farm Subsidies 35:07 - The Criticality of Farming & Trucking to the Economy 36:33 - Economic Reality & The Wealth Gap 41:30 - People Expect Prices to Go Down 42:35 - Why We Want Inflation - Economic Growth 45:27 - The Cycling Story - Criterion Racing - Lucas Bourgoyne 48:22 - Social Media Videos & In-Laws 50:09 - College vs Trades 52:58 - The Ever-growing Checklist for Publication Watch the Video of this interview on our YouTube channel: https://youtube.com/live/tsurGgQO88w #MediaAndMarkets #EconomicReality #FinancialMedia #OilPrices #WealthGap

In this Christmas episode, we look at two striking responses to God's announcement in Luke 1—Mary's humble faith and Zechariah's hesitant doubt. Drilling into their stories helps us see what a right response to Christmas really looks like. Pastor Jesse Randolph and Pastor Aaron Nicholson explore why even sincere believers can struggle to trust God, why Mary's submission is so remarkable, how discipline differs from humble questioning, and why the birth of Christ is ultimately about God's faithfulness—not seasonal sentimentality. We also consider how these responses shape our evangelism as we proclaim the good news of Christ's coming.Sound Words is a ministry of Indian Hills Community Church, a Bible teaching church in Lincoln, NE.

More than a decade ago—when wind and solar power were far more expensive than they are today—the nation of Uruguay, long plagued by droughts and energy shortages, transitioned its entire economy such that some 98 percent of its electricity now comes from renewable sources. And they did it in just two years. And they used the savings to slash the country's poverty rate from 40 percent into the single digits. Uruguay's conventional-wisdom-busting transformation is one of nine inspiring case studies in the journalist Natasha Hakimi Zapata's Another World Is Possible: Lessons for America from Around the Globe. In August, Drilled spoke with Hakimi Zapata about what lessons climate advocates and policymakers around the world can learn from Uruguay's remarkable transition, why the left should not shy away from articulating the economic case for clean energy, and how many of the progressive policies profiled in the book seem to emerge from moments of crisis.
