The COP is in its fourth decade. If it were capable, in its current form, of achieving its stated aim of tackling climate change, it would probably have done so by now. So why isn't it working? How is it possible that so much fanfare, so many words, and so much work—much of it genuine and good-faith—has amounted to such little progress? University of Toronto political science professor Jessica F. Green has some ideas. In Existential Politics: Why Global Climate Institutions Are Failing and How to Fix Them, the longtime observer of global climate negotiations and expert on carbon accounting argues that the COP embodies a “win-win” approach to a problem for which someone has to lose. The challenge, then, is to make sure the right people (and planet) do the winning, while the “fossil asset owners,” as Green describes them, do the losing. Learn more about your ad choices.

Interview with Scott Caithness, Managing Director of Hawk Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/hawk-resources-asxhwk-new-exploration-model-revitalises-historic-utah-mining-district-6860Recording date: 12th November 2025Hawk Resources (ASX:HWK) is preparing to drill its flagship Cactus copper-gold project in Utah this December, targeting five high-priority prospects in a historically productive mining district. Managing Director Scott Caithness recently outlined the company's systematic exploration approach and the multiple pathways to value creation at this advanced-stage project.The Cactus district boasts an impressive mining heritage, with the original mine operating between 1905 and 1920, producing 1.3 million tons at 2% copper with gold credits of 0.3 grams per ton and 6-7 grams per ton silver. Modern exploration has validated this potential, with Rio Tinto's previous work intersecting 42 meters at 1.9% copper and 0.6 g/t gold, while multiple historical drill holes have exceeded 1.4% copper grades.Hawk has employed a sophisticated dual-track strategy, identifying both deep geophysical targets with district-scale potential and near-surface oxide mineralization that could provide rapid development opportunities. The company's comprehensive geophysical surveys and systematic soil sampling—the first conducted over these targets - have defined five priority drill targets ranked by geological confidence.The Copperopolis target exemplifies the project's exploration potential, featuring a massive geophysical anomaly with surface soils returning up to 1,000 ppm copper. A 1974 drill hole off the anomaly's edge intersected 30 meters at 0.2% copper, yet the core remains untested with potential for substantial mineralization.With A$5 million recently raised and Utah permitting expected by end-November 2025, Hawk is fully funded for its 12-hole drilling program. Initial assay results are anticipated in Q1 2026, providing regular newsflow through the critical discovery phase.Beyond Cactus, the company has secured the Olympus scandium project in Western Australia, featuring a 4km x 7km soil anomaly grading over 500ppm scandium. This provides significant optionality in an emerging critical mineral with growing aerospace and defense applications, currently valued at approximately $3-3.5 million per ton.View Hawk Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/alderan-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share details of the company's upcoming 2026 exploration programs and to summarize key milestones achieved across its 2025 activities in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Hillacre said the company's 2026 plans will include high-resolution geophysical surveys and targeted diamond drilling across multiple uranium projects, highlighted by the fully drill-ready Davidson River property and partner-funded exploration at the Corvo and Rocas projects. Drilling campaigns are scheduled throughout the year as Standard Uranium continues to advance its extensive portfolio across the Basin. At the Davidson River project—Standard Uranium's flagship asset—new high-priority target areas have been delineated along the Warrior, Bronco, and Thunderbird conductor corridors through the first-ever Exosphere Multiphysics survey completed in the southwestern Athabasca. With all required drill permits secured and Exploration Agreements signed with the Clearwater River Dene Nation, the company plans to commence an 8,000-metre drill program in early spring 2026. At the Corvo project, a ground gravity survey spanning more than 29 kilometres of conductive strike is set for December 2025. A 3,000-metre winter 2026 diamond drill program will follow—marking the first drilling on the property in over 40 years—with targets including the Manhattan Showing and newly identified radioactive zones. Meanwhile, at the Rocas project, following a 2024 gravity survey and interpretation work by Convolutions Geoscience, a 1,800-metre drill program is planned for winter 2026 to test high-priority anomalies along a 7.5-kilometre magnetic low and EM conductive corridor that hosts multiple uranium showings. In addition, Standard Uranium will continue advancing its Sun Dog project through 3D modeling and inversion of EM and gravity data collected in 2024 and 2025. These efforts will refine targets ahead of a future partner-funded drill campaign. Hillacre said the company's exploration strategy remains focused on disciplined, data-driven target generation and partnership-supported programs aimed at unlocking new uranium discoveries across Canada's premier uranium district. #proactiveinvestors #standarduraniumltd #tsxv #stnd #otcqb #sttdf #mining #uranium #sundogproject #UraniumExploration #AthabascaBasin #DavidsonRiver #MiningInnovation #Geophysics #AmbientNoiseTomography #ResourceInvesting #FleetSpace #UraniumDiscovery #MiningNews

Did you know that about half of all eye injuries happen right at home? Home activities that can injure your eyes include: Cleaning. Chemicals like bleach in household cleaning products cause 125,000 eye injuries each year. Home Improvement. Screws, nails and hand tools can launch into the air—and into your eyes. Power tools can also send wood chips or other substances flying into the air. Yard Work. Lawn mowers, trimmers and even shovels can throw dirt and debris into the air. Branches, twigs and thorns can also be dangerous. Unfortunately, only about three out of 10 people wear protective eyewear during home projects that could hurt their eyes. The good news? Simply wearing protective eyewear can reduce your risk for eye injury by 90 percent! The American Academy of Ophthalmology urges every household to have at least one pair of ANSI-approved protective eyewear.  ("ANSI-approved" means the protective eyewear is made to meet safety standards of the American National Standards Institute.) In the house Using dangerous chemicals such as oven cleaner and bleach (accidents involving common household products cause 125,000 eye injuries each year). Read the labels of chemicals and cleaners carefully, and don't mix products. Cooking foods can that can splatter hot grease or oil. Use grease shields on frying pans to protect yourself from splattering. Opening champagne bottles during a celebration. Wrap a towel or cloth around the top of the bottle while unscrewing it to "catch" the cork. Never point a champagne bottle towards another person or yourself when opening it. Drilling or hammering screws or nails into walls or hard surfaces like brick or cement. The screws or nails can fly into the air, or fragments can come off the surface. Using hot objects such as curling irons around your face. Contact with your eyes can cause serious injury. Loose rugs and railings or other hazards that could cause falls or slips. Secure rugs with a non-slip pad underneath. Check to make sure railings are secure and not loose. Put padding on sharp corners and edges if you have children or the elderly in your house.

Small Cap Breaking News You Can't Miss! Here's a quick rundown of the latest updates from standout small-cap companies making big moves today.Capitan Silver (TSX-V: CAPT) Capitan Silver reported more high-grade silver hits from its Cruz de Plata project in Durango, Mexico, including 1,767 g/t silver equivalent (AgEq) over 1.5 metres within a wider zone of 234.2 g/t AgEq over 25.9 metres at the Jesus Maria trend. Drilling also outlined a long 87-metre zone of continuous mineralization and identified a new mineralized structure along the Peñoles Fault. With a fully funded 15,000-metre drill program, 25 holes still to report, and a tight share structure, Capitan is positioning Cruz de Plata as a potentially large, high-grade silver system with strong growth potential.1911 Gold (TSX-V: AUMB) 1911 Gold continues to deliver strong near-mine results at its fully permitted True North Gold Project in Manitoba, highlighted by 24.83 g/t gold over 2.60 metres at the San Antonio West zone, plus multiple high-grade hits at the nearby Annex target. These results extend gold mineralization to about 630 metres below surface and add a second emerging zone within the existing mine footprint. With surface drilling complete and two underground drill rigs now active, the company is clearly working toward a potential restart scenario supported by existing mine and mill infrastructure.Renforth Resources (CSE: RFR) Renforth has filed a NI 43-101 technical report for its Malartic Metals Package in Quebec, including the first inferred mineral resource estimate for the Victoria nickel sulphide polymetallic deposit. The report also captures a new copper discovery, gold targets and early lithium results, all within road-accessible ground crossed by a power line in a major mining corridor. This filing moves Renforth's story into a more formal, independently reviewed framework and strengthens its positioning as an emerging critical-minerals player in Canada's energy transition supply chain.Silverco Mining (TSX-V: SICO) Silverco is breathing new life into the past-producing Cusi silver mine in Chihuahua, Mexico, with high-grade drill results from the San Miguel target. Highlights include 8.6 metres grading 250 g/t AgEq and 2.1 metres grading 1,042 g/t AgEq, plus additional hits up to 1,868 g/t AgEq over 1.4 metres. With a 15,000-metre drill program about two-thirds complete, an existing 1,200 tpd mill on site, and the potential to restart operations as early as next year, Silverco is shaping up as a classic high-grade restart opportunity.Follow AGORACOM for more breaking small-cap news, updates, and investor coverage — and don't forget to subscribe to our podcast for in-depth interviews and analysis on these emerging stories!

Interview with Rudi Deysel, Board MD & CEO OF West Wits MiningOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/west-wits-mining-asxwwi-gold-producer-doubles-npv-to-500m-with-81-irr-in-updated-dfs-7533Recording date: 30th October 2025West Wits Mining (ASX:WWI) has successfully transitioned from project developer to gold producer, achieving a significant milestone on October 14, 2025, with its first underground ore production in South Africa's renowned Witwatersrand Basin. Managing Director and CEO Rudi Deysel confirmed that following a three-month mobilization period beginning in July, the company completed its first physical blast and ore transport from the mine.The project's unique structure allows for simultaneous development and production, facilitated by previous early works that established an operational footprint. "We actually produced our first ore around the 14th of October. So that was the first physical blast and first transport of ore out of the mine," Deysel stated. Stockpiles are being transported to Sibanye Stillwater's Ezulwini processing plant under tolling arrangements, enabling the company to generate revenue while advancing development.Early results have exceeded expectations, with production tracking marginally above resource model forecasts. Ground conditions have proven excellent, with fresh rock and strong stability allowing rapid advancement of the one-east and one-west temporary declines. Drilling and blasting cycle times are completing within single shifts, with the operation progressing toward multi-blast approvals that could double production capacity at working faces.West Wits has implemented modern hydropower technology over traditional compressed air systems common in older South African mines, delivering significant power savings by eliminating compression losses and leakage issues. The company has also deployed digital infrastructure including volume scanning, electronic sampling systems, and real-time vibration monitoring.The project remains fully funded through to steady-state production of 70,000 ounces annually, with an eight-to-nine-month payback period at current gold prices. Management maintains a disciplined focus on establishing sustainable mining practices and quality standards during this critical ramp-up phase, while pursuing a longer-term growth target of 200,000 ounces per annum within three years. "Once you prove yourself as a good operator and you deliver what you promised then you really get financial partners that support you," Deysel emphasized.View West Wits Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/west-wits-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Hurricane Melissa, the strongest storm to hit the Caribbean in modern times, left a wake of destruction in Jamaica, Cuba and Haiti that will take years to recover from. A Jamaican climate physics professor describes the toll of this climate catastrophe, and a meteorologist joins us to explain how the storm grew so ferocious in the blink of a hurricane's eye.   Also, Gwich'in Alaska Natives, which consider the land of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge sacred and local Porcupine Caribou as relatives, are expressing alarm at how renewed prospects of drilling in this fragile environment could upend their world.  And the Pacific Northwest of the US harbored a serial killer hotspot of sorts in the 1970s, associated with the neurotoxin lead. Seattle-born author Caroline Fraser explores this link in her book Murderland: Crime and Bloodlust in the Time of Serial Killers. She discusses how dangerously high lead exposure from smelters and gasoline may have led to the increase of violence and murders in the region. ---  Federal funding for public radio has ended.

 What's truly "spooky" this Halloween? The unprecedented demand for drilling professionals! In Episode 3 of The Drillercast, hosts Brock and Dave discuss the industry's workforce "nightmare", from record-breaking apprentice classes to new legislative support.Fitting the holiday, they analyze the drilling inaccuracies in the blockbuster Armageddon. While the movie's physics are a "nightmare", the hosts agree with its core premise: it's easier to teach a driller to be an astronaut than an astronaut to be a driller.Why? Because drilling is more than a procedure; it's a "science and an art", requiring microsecond adjustments and a feel that takes years to develop. Listen to the full episode to hear why the skills of a driller are truly out of this world. 

Today's Headlines: The fragile Gaza ceasefire is officially over after 18 days, with Israel launching new airstrikes in Rafah after claiming Hamas fired rockets and mishandled the return of hostage remains. Hamas still holds the bodies of 13 hostages, and the stalled recovery effort is blocking the next phase of negotiations — including disarmament and postwar governance. Meanwhile, the U.S. carried out deadly strikes on boats off Colombia's coast, killing 14 people; Mexico's president condemned the attack as a breach of international law. Back home, Trump's legal team is appealing his 34 felony convictions from the hush money case, arguing the trial violated his supposed immunity. A federal judge extended an order blocking the administration from firing federal employees during the shutdown, which continues to drag on. ICE is seeing a wave of leadership purges as the White House pushes for higher deportation numbers, and Trump just greenlit over 1.5 million acres of Alaska's Arctic refuge for oil drilling, reversing Biden-era protections and alarming conservationists. Globally, the U.N. warned that the world will “inevitably” overshoot the 1.5°C warming target, while Bill Gates called for a “strategic pivot” away from limiting warming toward reducing poverty and disease instead. Hurricane Melissa slammed Jamaica as a catastrophic Category 5 storm — one of the strongest in Atlantic history — and Trump's Truth Social is launching Truth Predict, a crypto betting platform for everything from sports to elections, because of course it is.

John Miniotis, President and CEO of AbraSilver Resource Corp (TSX: ABRA) (OTCQX: ABBRF), joins us to review the next batch of gold and silver drill assays announced October 28th, from the ongoing Phase V exploration program; which has been mostly focused on the Oculto East and JAC zones at their wholly-owned Diablillos property in Salta Province, Argentina.      We review how these results continue to expand oxide-hosted gold mineralization to the east of the Oculto deposit, extending the high-grade gold zone and highlighting the continued strong exploration upside potential across the Diablillos system.   At Oculto East, numerous broad zones of gold and silver mineralization were intercepted, including: DDH 25-073: 10.0 metres ("m") grading 59 g/t silver (from 117 m downhole) & 20.0 m grading 0.66 g/t gold (223 m downhole) DDH 25-074: 31.0 m grading 0.59 g/t gold (from 255 m) DDH 25-075A: 73.0 m grading 0.55 g/t gold (from 277 m), including 13.5 m at 0.83 g/t gold & 16.5 m grading 0.75 g/t gold DDH 25-076: 12 m grading 62 g/t silver (from 128 m downhole) & a very broad, well-mineralized intercept of 180.0 m grading 0.65 g/t gold (from 170 m), including 15.0 m at 1.36 g/t gold DDH 25-077: A high-grade interval of 13.81 g/t gold over 8.5 m from 317 m, and a separate interval of 44.0 m at 0.65 g/t gold from 368 m   The exploration team now believes these higher-grade gold intercepts are just the top of a porphyry deposit at depth, and John highlights that some deeper holes will be testing this in the future, as well as the deeper hole targeting a different porphyry target at Cerro Viejo.   Additionally, we circle back to the Sombra target identified in the Phase IV drill program last year, and how it is possible that there is a parallel trend that could extend from Sombra up to Oculto East, and that more drilling will focus on that thesis in the future.   John takes us through the busy year the company has in front of them due to a series of upcoming catalysts all the way though the end of 2026. There are still thousands of meters of ongoing drilling, testing new areas and stepping out from known mineralization. The Company is doing all the derisking work all building towards their ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study due out in early 2026, which in tandem with permits expected to be received, will be the triggers for a construction decision next year.   Wrapping up John reiterates why the limited RIGI laws are so economically advantageous to the Company, relaxing currency controls, reducing export duties to 0% over a couple years, and reducing taxation over a 30 year period.    We also review the positive business and permitting tailwinds in place in Argentina as a jurisdiction for mining, which were just strengthened in recent elections last week.     If you have any follow up questions for John regarding at AbraSilver, then please email them into us at Fleck@kereport.com  at  Shad@kereport.com .     In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of AbraSilver Resource Corp at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell more shares at any time.   Click here to visit the AbraSilver website and read over the most recent news releases.   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.

Michael Rowley, President & CEO, of Stillwater Critical Minerals (TSX.V: PGE – OTCQB: PGEZF), joins us to review the news out today announcing the completion of the 2025 exploration program, that the Company has engaged Mine Technical Services (“MTS”) to complete an updated NI 43-101-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) for the Company's 100%-owned Stillwater West critical minerals project in Montana, USA.  Stillwater West hosts nickel, copper, cobalt, chromium, platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium, gold, and osmium – a unique mix of battery, alloy, and platinum group metals essential to clean energy, defense, and technology supply chains.   Mike explains that this new geological model and understanding of the Stillwater West Project through the lens of the South African Bushveld Complex as a parallel is so crucial to unlocking the value proposition of the Project and for future exploration targeting.  It is also quite constructive have  Dr. Danie Grobler, Vice President of Exploration, Albie Brits, Senior Geologist, provide different layers of input and collaboration with Tim Kuhl and the MTS team on the updated Stillwater resource estimate. Their extensive experience in Platreef-type geology and resource estimation is expected to provide significant value to the Project.   Highlights and upcoming catalysts:   The 2025 drill campaign is now complete, totaling 3,471m in eight holes, with all assays pending. The updated MRE will incorporate 14 drill holes totaling 5,781 meters (“m”) from the 2023 and 2025 programs, plus select historic holes not included in the current estimate. The updated Mineral Resource Estimate is expected in H1 2026 and will mark the next step in advancing Stillwater West as a potential large-scale source of ten minerals listed as critical in the U.S. The update will build on the January 25, 2023, Inferred Mineral Resource and results will support further technical studies and economic assessments. MTS has completed a site visit and is updating deposit models to incorporate new data, improved geologic domaining, geostatistics, and structural controls – leveraging insights from the Platreef district in South Africa. The work is being led by Mr. Timothy Kuhl (MTS) and Dr. Danie Grobler (Stillwater) who together previously worked with the late Dr. Harry Parker on the resource estimation and technical reports for Ivanhoe Mines' Platreef Mine.   We go on to discuss with Mike the challenges and opportunities in defining the large-scale polymetallic and critical mineral resources at Stillwater West; and why it has the attention of large major producers, like their strategic partner Glencore, along with attention from the US and Montana government. We discuss how the nickel, copper, and cobalt tie into the growing industry demands for battery metals, energy metals, and defense metals. Additionally, with platinum, palladium, rhodium, and gold all demonstrating strong recent market performance, Stillwater West offers significant leverage to these precious metals.     If you have any questions for Mike or the team at Stillwater Critical Minerals, then please email them into us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Stillwater Critical Minerals   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 Brett Marsh, President & CEO of Spartan MetalsRecording date: 16th October 2025Spartan Metals Corp has emerged as a focused player in the critical minerals sector with its Eagle project in Nevada, a past-producing district that encompasses two historic tungsten mines and a high-grade copper-silver operation. The company's strategic approach centers on reviving domestic tungsten production at a time when the United States faces near-total import dependence for this defense-critical metal.CEO Brett Marsh, bringing 25 years of geology experience across major mining companies and junior explorers, has deliberately structured Spartan around tungsten development despite the presence of valuable polymetallic mineralization on the property. The company's stock symbol 'W' reflects this unwavering focus on what Marsh describes as the cornerstone commodity driving the venture.The Tungstonia deposit presents compelling characteristics for modern exploration. Historic mining during World War II and earlier periods produced grades between 0.6% and 0.9% tungsten trioxide, with operations extending only to approximately 75 meters depth. Recent work reveals that veins mined over 700 meters of strike length actually extend to nearly 2 kilometers, suggesting substantial depth potential that previous operators never tested.An immediate catalyst exists in the form of 10,000 tons of historic tailings grading 0.15% tungsten trioxide. Drilling commenced October 20th to establish tonnage, grade distribution, and metallurgical characteristics, with Marsh indicating the company will likely partner with entities possessing downstream processing capability for monetization rather than developing standalone infrastructure.Spartan's recent $2.25 million financing fully funds a comprehensive Phase 1 exploration program including surface mapping, soil geochemistry, geophysical surveys, and 3D geological modeling ahead of maiden drilling tentatively scheduled for early spring 2026. The company's systematic approach to validating century-old data through modern exploration techniques has attracted attention from both investors and government entities interested in reshoring strategic mineral supply chains. With tungsten classified as critical by the U.S. government and China controlling approximately 80% of global supply, Spartan's timing aligns with heightened policy support for domestic production alternatives.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, we chat with Geoff McNamara, Co-Founder & Non-Executive Director of Tesoro Gold who are an ASX-listed company, looking to advance its flagship El Zorro Gold Project in Chile, home to the 2-million-ounce Ternera deposit with an exploration target of up to 3 million ounces. They have recently raised $34M so we'll discuss how the funds will be used, support from shareholders and new institutions, highlights from the recent Scoping Study, drilling plans across regional targets, and the pathway to full permitting. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tesoro Gold recently raised $34 million to fund a multi-pronged strategy: completing a pre-feasibility study by mid-2026, advancing regional exploration drilling, and fully permitting the El Zorro project within 18 months. The El Zorro project is a unique, unconstrained 2-million-ounce gold resource in Chile, open in all directions and not at high altitude, with significant potential to grow to the 3-million-ounce target and beyond by linking parallel ridges like Tenore and Drone Hill. The scoping study showed attractive post-tax economics, generating a Net Present Value (NPV) over $650 million and a 50% Internal Rate of Return (IRR) at a $2,750 US dollar gold price, demonstrating the project's high competitiveness with an All-in Sustaining Cost (AISC) of $1,216 US dollars. Chile is a favourable mining jurisdiction, and the company has commenced the permitting process, locking in critical infrastructure including power (20km away) and water (30km away via a desalination plant partner), which are crucial for the project's development BEST MOMENTS "We've made the first intrusive-related gold system discovery in Chile. So it's quite a unique business and story." "The deposit is open in all direction, so a lot of that growth will just be stepping out, north, south, east, and west... it's certainly a pathway to well beyond 3 million ounces in a single deposit." "The all-in sustaining cost is 1,216 US dollars. So it's a highly competitive all-in sustaining cost." "The best leaders and entrepreneurs aren't the ones who know it all, they're the ones humble enough to keep learning through others."

Interview with Richard Osmond, CEO of Element 29 ResourcesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/element-29-resources-tsxvecu-developing-the-next-major-copper-mine-in-peru-6293Recording date: 5th October 2025Element 29 Resources is advancing its Elida porphyry copper-molybdenum-silver project in Peru with about 14,000 meters of drilling completed and a maiden resource estimate published in 2022. The company aims to grow the initial 300 million tons resource to over 500 million tons through ongoing exploration. Recent magnetotelluric (MT) geophysical surveys have identified a hydrothermal alteration footprint exceeding six kilometers in strike length, which includes low resistivity anomalies at depth. These anomalies suggest the presence of a high-grade copper core that remains untested at around 1.5 kilometers below the surface.Element 29 has secured approximately $10 million in treasury, raised through $6.1 million in financing and $4 million from warrant exercises, to fund a 7,000-meter drill program. Drilling costs average $450-500 USD per meter. The project benefits from a five-year community access agreement and is expanding drill permits from 20 to 40 platforms ahead of Peru's 2026 election cycle. Peru's government has shown increased support for mining development after losing its position as the world's second-largest copper producer to the Democratic Republic of Congo.The Elida project displays favorable characteristics including a 4:1 strip ratio, an absence of a water table which reduces environmental liability, expectations of clean concentrate with no arsenic, and potential for transitioning from an open pit to underground mining. This transition could extend the mine life beyond the initial 15-year production timeline at 100,000 tons per day. The geological setting is defined by multiple mineralization phases within a porphyry intrusive complex, with late-stage sulfidation overprints upgrading the system and increasing grades at depth.The company's CEO, Richard Osmond, emphasizes the rarity of such discoveries today and the project's potential as a tier-one asset. The strategy focuses on resource expansion through systematic drilling and geophysical targeting, supported by Peru's improving regulatory environment and strong investment protections. Element 29 is positioning itself to deliver a de-risked copper asset that could satisfy major mining companies' requirements for large-scale, economically viable resources in world-class jurisdictions.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/element-29-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Drilling for oil has been going on in the US for over 150 years. Across the country we have bored millions of holes in the ground to pump the liquid gold that has fueled the country's energy appetite. But those wells don't last forever. When the oil begins to dry up, wells are supposed to be plugged to prevent toxic, climate-altering chemicals from escaping. So why then is there, by some estimates, more than 2 million unplugged abandoned wells around the country? Today on The Sunday Story, NPR correspondent Camila Domonoske joins to talk about the lingering effects of these old wells and why it's so hard to find a long-term fix.
