In this episode of THE MENTORS RADIO, Host Tom Loarie talks with Mai Nguyen, PhD, the remarkable 36-year-old neuroscientist who is the co-founder and CEO of OptoCeutics and the inventor of EVY LIGHT®, a breakthrough light-based therapy aimed at slowing the progression of Alzheimer's and other memory disorders. Her journey is anything but ordinary. Born in Vietnam, raised in California as the youngest of nine children in a struggling family, she spent her childhood at a local Flea Market and then went on to earn a PhD in neuroscience. But it was a "chance" conversation with a Danish professor that changed her life, and quite likely the lives of millions who will benefit from her decision. In this episode, you'll explore the science behind Dr. Mai Nguyen's light therapy innovation, her deeply personal and unlikely entrepreneurial journey and the powerful values that have guided her. This is a conversation about courage, healing and what it means to be a leader with heart and grit.

Political theorist Annabel Brett of Cambridge University explores how the concept of “moral possibility” shapes law, politics, and public obligation. She explains that laws must be realistic for people to follow—what is morally possible varies by individual, culture, time, and circumstance. Drawing on early modern Catholic legal theory, Brett discusses how extreme demands (like enduring war or plague) may justify higher expectations, but only temporarily. She examines how colonial Spanish officials misused this framework to justify forced labor in Peru, wrongly claiming it aligned with indigenous customs. Brett contrasts this with more democratic approaches to law, like Domingo de Soto's defense of beggars' rights, which take individuals' real conditions seriously. Ultimately, she shows how moral possibility is deeply tied to time, virtue, and justice. Commentary is provided by David Dyzenhaus of the University of Toronto.

U.S. Gold Corp CEO George Bee joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a key advancement in the company's development strategy for its flagship CK Gold Project in southeast Wyoming. The company has contracted two industry leaders—Micon International and Halyard—to lead the next phase of engineering and feasibility work, with the goal of delivering a robust and executable development plan that brings the project into production on time and on budget. Following a competitive evaluation process, U.S. Gold selected Micon and Halyard for their deep expertise in concentrator design and process engineering, and their reputation for “right-sizing” projects to meet operational and economic goals. The firms have a combined track record of over 762 completed projects and more than 1,260 technical reports, making them trusted global authorities in mineral project development. The primary objective of this next phase is to develop a site-specific AACE Class 3 cost estimate—a highly detailed engineering and cost forecast level required for capital funding decisions—and a comprehensive project execution plan. These deliverables will form the backbone of the company's Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS), which is expected to be completed by late 2025. In addition to the Micon-Halyard partnership, U.S. Gold has also retained Ken Murray of Captrics Consulting to oversee the finalization of engineering studies and lead the development of the Project Execution Plan. Murray brings more than 25 years of capital project and innovation experience across a wide range of commodities, industries, and geographies. Renowned for his strategic insight and innovative thinking, Murray has held senior roles with Kemix, DRA Global, Accenture, Ausenco, SNC-Lavalin, and Inspire Resources, supporting projects for major mining companies such as BHP, AngloPlatinum, Assmang, Alamos, New Gold, and Goldcorp. The CK Gold Project is a cornerstone asset for U.S. Gold Corp, offering a compelling combination of scale, grade, and jurisdictional stability. As development accelerates with trusted technical partners and experienced leadership in place, the company is well-positioned to transform CK Gold into a strategic, U.S.-based source of gold and copper in a market increasingly focused on domestic resource security. #proactiveinvestors #usgoldcorp #nasdaq #usau #mining #USGoldCorp #CKGoldProject #GoldMining #CopperMining #WyomingMining #MiningStocks #GeorgeBee #GoldPrice #FeasibilityStudy #JuniorMining #ProactiveInvestors

Canagold Resources CEO Catalin Kilofliski joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's flagship New Polaris gold project, which is steadily advancing toward a feasibility study and production decision. Located in British Columbia, the project is drawing increasing attention for its exceptionally high-grade gold resource and new upside from a critical mineral byproduct—antimony. Kilofliski emphasized that New Polaris may host the highest-grade undeveloped gold deposit in the world, with an average grade of 13 grams per tonne (g/t) of gold. The current resource includes over one million ounces of gold, which is now being evaluated as part of ongoing feasibility-level work to define the project's development path. A major update in the project's evolution is the recent recognition of antimony as an economic byproduct. Kilofliski shared that Canagold has published a NI 43-101 compliant antimony resource of approximately 7,000 tons, which is now being incorporated into future mine planning. “Anything we would get paid eventually for antimony, it's on top, which is great,” he said, noting that the costs associated with mining the antimony are already absorbed by the gold production, making it a pure bonus in terms of economics. This development is particularly timely, as antimony has been designated a critical mineral by both Canada and the United States, due to its strategic importance in defense, energy storage, and semiconductors, and growing concerns over global supply chain vulnerabilities. As demand for antimony rises, Canagold is well-positioned to benefit from both rising prices and increasing geopolitical interest in secure domestic sources. The company continues to advance permitting efforts in British Columbia, with both regulatory work and technical feasibility studies actively underway. These efforts are laying the groundwork for a future construction decision while engaging with stakeholders and regulatory bodies to ensure a clear path to development. Kilofliski also highlighted Canagold's strong financial position, supported by its major shareholder, Sun Valley Investments, which owns approximately 50% of the company's outstanding shares. Sun Valley's involvement provides Canagold with stable, long-term financial backing, enabling the company to maintain momentum without reliance on near-term dilutive financing. With high-grade gold, newly defined critical minerals, supportive capital partners, and ongoing regulatory progress, Canagold Resources is shaping New Polaris into a uniquely attractive development-stage asset, offering both near-term advancement and long-term strategic value in a resource-constrained world. #proactiveinvestors #canagoldresources #tsx #ccm #otcqb #crcuf #mining #Antimony #CriticalMinerals #NewPolaris #MiningStocks #FeasibilityStudy #TSX

First Phosphate Corp CEO John Passalacqua talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's recent metallurgical testing progress and next steps toward a feasibility study. The company has collected a 5,000-kilogram bulk sample to refine its phosphate separation process and further validate its earlier pilot results, which had already achieved nearly 90% phosphate recovery. Passalacqua emphasized the significance of this stage, saying, “Now it's a second stage as we advance towards our feasibility study… to get down to what will be our real live scale separation process.” The Northern and Mountain zones remain the focal points for the first decade of production, chosen for their high phosphate concentration and accessible terrain. He also shared findings of up to 45% apatite from surface stripping and noted that the project area spans 2.5km by 0.5km, with confirmed mineralization to depths of 300m and remaining open. The next steps include completing definition drilling and validating resource estimates to transition from inferred to measured classification. Passalacqua also highlighted investor-ready metrics from the PEA, including a C$2.1 billion NPV and a 37% IRR, along with strong logistics and existing offtake agreements.

Dr. Robert Quartermain, Co-Chairman, Director and CEO of Dakota Gold (NYSE American: DC), joined me for an update on their Richmond Hill Project and Maitland Gold Project, both located in the historic Homestake District of South Dakota, near existing mining infrastructure. The company is advancing its Richmond Hill project toward eventual surface heap leach gold operation as soon as 2029, and expanding the high-grade gold mineralization discovered at the Maitland Gold Project toward an initial resource estimate. We start having Robert share his background in the industry, as he was previously the Executive Chairman of Pretium Resources Inc., which he founded in October 2010. Prior to Pretium, he was President and Chief Executive Officer of Silver Standard Resources Inc. (now SSR Mining Inc.) for 25 years from 1985-2010. Not only does he have a wealth of experience in developing and constructing producing mines, but he has assembled a solid management team and board filled with industry veterans that have worked in either the Homestake Mine, before it closed down, or the currently producing nearby Wharf Mine, operated by Coeur Mining. Richmond Hill is one of the largest undeveloped oxide gold resources in the United States being advanced by a junior mining company, with over 6 million ounces of gold and over 60 million ounces of silver moving along the pathway of development into heap leach production as soon as 2029. Principle Projects on Private Land which equates to a positive attribute for efficient permitting with State and County organizations. S-K 1300 Mineral Resource (Heap Leachable): 65 M oz M&I Gold, 2.61 M oz Inferred Gold 1 M oz M&I Silver, 22.8 M oz Inferred Silver Dakota Gold has engaged the current consulting groups based on their capabilities to deliver an Initial Assessment with Cash Flow (IACF) in mid-2025 (similar to a PEA). This economic study will be based on a 30,000 ton per day crushing circuit, and further the project towards ultimate production. The Company continues Feasibility planning with M3 as the overall Study Manager as well as the lead for processing, while RESPEC will manage the mining and environmental aspects There are currently two drill rigs turning at Richmond Hill. In 2025, the Company expects to drill ~80,000 feet (24,384 meters) using a combination of Reverse Circulation and Core drilling. The primary focus of the program is to collect metallurgical samples for the Feasibility Study, infill, and expansion resource drilling in the northeast corner of the Project area. This area is expected to be mined at the beginning of the mine plan and is higher-grade than the overall deposit. At the Maitland Gold Project the Company is currently assessing the exploration data collected to date from the JB Gold Zone and the Unionville Zone with the intent of outlining an initial inferred gold resource. The work is expected to be completed in the fall of 2025. To date the JB Gold Zone has encountered a number of high-grade intersections which average 10.76 g/t Au over 4.0 meters. With the recent financing announced March 20, 2025, the Company currently has a cash balance of $47 million as noted in the filed 10Q as at March 31, 2025, and is fully financed through the IACF and the subsequent completion of its Feasibility Study on the Project.

Interview with Walter Coles, Executive Chairman of Skeena Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/skeena-resources-tsxske-fully-funded-high-grade-gold-poised-for-production-5657Recording date: 29th May 2025Skeena Gold & Silver is developing the Eskay Creek Mine in British Columbia, positioned to become one of the world's largest gold-silver mines when production begins in early 2027. This project represents a compelling investment opportunity with exceptional economics, significant upside potential, and multiple near-term catalysts that could drive substantial share price appreciation.The project's economics are truly remarkable. At $3,200/oz gold price, Eskay Creek boasts an after-tax NPV of $4.5 billion and an extraordinary 72% internal rate of return. This translates to a payback period of just over six months on the $700 million construction cost. Most impressively, Skeena's all-in sustainable cost per ounce is projected at less than $600 for the first six years of production, compared to approximately $1,700 for major producers like Barrick and Newmont. "We have a project that's super super low on the cost curve, enormously profitable per ounce of production.", explains Coles. This cost advantage creates exceptional profit margins even at much lower gold prices.Skeena has secured comprehensive financing through Orion Resource Partners, removing a major uncertainty that typically impacts junior developers. The $750 million package includes equity, a gold stream, and debt facilities. Since announcing this funding, Skeena's stock has nearly tripled from around $6 to $17 Canadian. The company is now exploring refinancing options to reduce its cost of capital as the project de-risks.Beyond the base case, Skeena is advancing several value-enhancement initiatives. The company plans to extend the mine life from 12 to 15-16 years by incorporating the high-grade Snip deposit and the Albino Lake waste facility. Additionally, Skeena has identified significant antimony, lead, and zinc content worth potentially 2.2 million tons of waste tailings that could be recovered with minimal additional costs.Investors can look forward to several near-term catalysts such as final permits expected in Q4 2025, refinancing of the Orion loan facility in Q1 2026, updated feasibility study in the first half of 2026, and production commencement in early 2027.Skeena's partnership with the Tahltan First Nation adds another layer of strength to the project. The company signed the first agreement in Canada giving a First Nation formal consent rights over a mining project, creating a true partnership that reduces social and political risk factors.For investors seeking exposure to precious metals with significant upside potential, Skeena offers a rare combination of exceptional grade, economics, and execution capability in a tier-one jurisdiction. As the company advances toward production and begins generating substantial cash flow, the valuation gap with producing peers is likely to close, potentially delivering substantial returns to investors who position themselves ahead of these developments.View Skeena Gold & Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/skeena-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The United States and China reached a 90-day truce in the trade war when their representatives met in Geneva in early May. Both sides agreed to temporarily roll back tariffs and non-tariff trade barriers. President Trump announced that a “total reset” in US-China relations had been achieved. Beyond the hyperbole, the two sides agreed to establish a mechanism on economics and trade and launch negotiations to address trade imbalances and other problems. Whether a deal is reached, what it might look like, and what it might include, remains to be seen. The future trajectory of US-China relations, overall, is still unclear.This episode highlights a Chinese perspective on the US-China bilateral relationship, including on the recent trade talks and the factors that will influence US-China relations going forward.

We're looking at the proposals for a new line connecting the North Wales Main Line and the Cambrian Coast Line between Bangor and Afon Wen... Are the plans any good? Should they go ahead even if the correct route for a north-south Welsh mainline is at the other side of the country? Way back in Episode 57 we analysed where any future north-south Welsh railway needed to be, and we fleshed those plans out into the Dragon Line/Llinell Y Ddraig in Episode 116. Let's see how this report aligns with that - or doesn't.

“Everyone's brain is extremely heterogenic, so it's different. You can put five of us in a room; we can all have the same diagnosis of a [glioblastoma multiforme], but all of ours can be different. They're highly aggressive biologically. It's a small area in a hard shell. So trying to get through the blood–brain barrier is different. There's a lot of areas of hypoxia in the brain. There's a lot of pressure there. The microbiology is very different—it's a cold environment versus a hot environment—and then the pathways are just different,” Lori Cappello, MSN, APN-C, CCRP, research advanced practice nurse at the John Theurer Cancer Center of Hackensack Meridian Health in New Jersey, told Jaime Weimer, MSN, RN, AGCNS-BS, AOCNS®, manager of oncology nursing practice at ONS, during a conversation about brain malignancies and caring for patients with them.

It is the most diagnosed of the brain tumors. And then I would say that an anaplastic astrocytoma is probably the second diagnosed. Historically a GBM, they used to say was probably an elderly patient for these. But we are definitely seeing it diagnosed at a much younger age now, definitely much more prevalent for people under 60.” TS 3:17 “Nine times out of ten, either a patient out of nowhere has a seizure, or they present with what they think are stroke-like symptoms. They noticed that they were slurring, or they were becoming more forgetful, or a family member noticed it and said, ‘Hey, what is going on with you?' But usually they present to the [emergency department], and a [computed tomography] scan is always done first. And lo and behold, something is seen.” TS 4:50 “The only other U.S. Food and Drug Administration-approved treatment that has come along in the last 20 years is a device called Optune Gio, which is an alternating electric field that stops cell division at the mitosis stage.” TS 7:45 “They lose so much of their independence, especially if they don't have a caregiver or help. That is huge. Medication management at home, to making sure that they're taking the medication properly, that they are actually taking their medication. Transportation is another huge problem. Getting to and from appointments is a challenge. Those are big issues—real, day-to-day, simple issues that people don't think about.” TS 17:11 “I think that having a brain tumor is very unique in the fact that you really need a dedicated neuro-oncologist. And depending on where you live, there are not a lot in the area. I actually had a patient that was moving out west, and the closest dedicated neuro-oncologist was four hours from them. … if you're not seeing dedicated neuro oncologists, you might not be getting the best treatment for yourself. So I think that having the resources and helping patients find the best care or the best brain tumor society—and there's a bunch of really good brain tumor groups to help patients find the best resources out there. I think that's really, really important for patients to know or for families to know.” TS 19:17 “So trying to help patients, there are always going to be challenges, and there are always going to be ups and downs. But finding that one person that they can go to, that they trust, that they have a great relationship with, whether at the doctor's office or whatever, and being available to them makes such a difference in their journey. I think that that is the most important for anybody in the journey.” TS 22:08 “With brain, there are going to be expectations. They are going to lose functionality at some point—and preparing them for that thing or preparing them for things that can help themselves. Like sometimes I say, ‘Go to the dollar store, get coloring books,' if they have weakness in one hand. Little tricks of the trade that can help them. About treatment options, going through the side effects, preparing them for whatever they can be prepared for.” TS 22:39 “It is not one of the better cancers to have, but it doesn't immediately mean it's a death sentence, and we shouldn't treat them like they're dying. We shouldn't take away their ability to live just because they were diagnosed with it. We shouldn't take away hope.” TS 25:35 “I think there's not enough discussed about [brain malignancies] and the lack of resources for this. These patients need a lot more resources and are available. There's just not enough available for it.” TS 26:59

In this episode, we speak with Matteo Mirolo, Director of Strategy & External Relations at Contrails.org, a science-led nonprofit initiative aimed at transforming contrail research into practical climate action. Mirolo discusses:The substantial climate impact of contrails, which are responsible for 1-2% of human-caused global warming and have roughly the same warming effect as all aviation CO2 emissions since the jet age.The concentrated nature of the problem, with just 5% of flights causing about 80% of aviation's contrail warming effect, primarily over Europe, North America, and the North Atlantic.Contrails.org's three-pillar approach focusing on science (improving understanding of contrail impacts), technology (developing open-source tools and protocols), and adoption (raising awareness and fostering incentives).The cost-effectiveness of contrail mitigation compared to other decarbonisation options, with studies suggesting only 0.11% extra fuel burn across airline fleets.The vision for seamless integration into airline operations, where contrail avoidance becomes as routine as avoiding turbulence or adverse weather.Contrails.org seeks to be an open, collaborative space, with Mirolo likening it to “a tent under which people can put their furniture.” Its goal is to address the contrail issue through collective effort, recognising that effective management requires coordination across the aviation sector.If you LOVED this episode, you'll also love the conversation we had with Alejandra Martín Frías, Head of Sustainability Research at FLIGHTKEYS, who shared insights into the company's research on contrail avoidance.

Notes from James: What if I told you that we could eliminate the IRS, get rid of personal income taxes completely, and still keep the government funded? Sounds impossible, right? Well, not only is it possible, but historical precedent shows it has been done before. I know what you're thinking—this sounds insane. But bear with me. The IRS collects $2.5 trillion in personal income taxes each year. But what if we could replace that with a national sales tax that adjusts based on what you buy? Under my plan: Necessities (food, rent, utilities) 5% tax Standard goods (clothes, furniture, tech) 15% tax Luxury goods (yachts, private jets, Rolls Royces) 50% tax And boom—we don't need personal income taxes anymore! You keep 100% of what you make, the economy booms, and the government still gets funded. This episode is a deep dive into how this could work, why it's better than a flat tax, and why no one in government will actually do this (but should). Let me know what you think—and if you agree, share this with a friend (or send it to Trump). Episode Description: What if you never had to pay personal income taxes again? In this mind-bending episode of The James Altucher Show, James tackles a radical idea buzzing from Trump, Elon Musk, and Howard Lutnick: eliminating the IRS. With $2.5 trillion in personal income taxes on the line, is it even possible? James says yes—and he's got a plan. Digging into history, economics, and a little-known concept called “money velocity,” James breaks down how the U.S. thrived in the 1800s without income taxes, relying on tariffs and “vice taxes” on liquor and tobacco. Fast forward to today: the government rakes in $4.9 trillion annually, but spends $6.7 trillion, leaving a gaping deficit. So how do you ditch the IRS without sinking the ship? James unveils his bold solution: a progressive national sales tax—5% on necessities like food, 15% on everyday goods like clothes, and a hefty 50% on luxury items like yachts and Rolls Royces. Seniors and those on Social Security? They'd pay nothing. The result? The government still nets $2.5 trillion, the economy grows by $3.7 trillion thanks to unleashed consumer spending, and you keep more of your hard-earned cash. No audits, no accountants, just taxes at the cash register. From debunking inflation fears to explaining why this could shrink the $36 trillion national debt, James makes a compelling case for a tax revolution. He even teases future episodes on tariffs and why a little debt might not be the enemy. Whether you're a skeptic or ready to tweet this to Trump, this episode will change how you see taxes—and the economy—forever. What You'll Learn: The history of taxes in America—and how the country thrived without an income tax in the 1800s Why the IRS exists and how it raises $2.5 trillion in personal income taxes every year How eliminating income taxes would boost the economy by $3.75 trillion annually My radical solution: a progressive national sales tax—and how it works Why this plan would actually put more money in your pocket Would prices skyrocket? No. Here's why.
