    Interview withVictor Cantore, CEO of AMEX ExplorationDan Noone, CEO of G2 GoldfieldsRecording date: 27 May 2025Two prominent gold exploration executives highlighted their companies' substantial resource bases and positive market outlook during a recent industry discussion, underscoring the current strength in precious metals fundamentals.Victor Cantore, CEO of AMEX Exploration, reported his company's updated mineral resource estimate of 2.3 million ounces in Quebec's established Normétal mining district. The resource includes 1.6 million ounces in measured and indicated categories, with a particularly notable high-grade "Champagne Zone" containing 831,000 ounces at 6.2 grams per tonne. AMEX's strategic location benefits from existing infrastructure, electricity access, and proximity to established communities, reducing development costs and operational complexity.Dan Noone, CEO of G2 Goldfields, announced his company's 3 million ounce resource in Ghana at approximately 3 grams per tonne, with additional discoveries at the Oko North area currently under exploration. G2 operates adjacent to significant mining activity, including recent acquisitions by G Mining and AngloGold's 15% regional investment, which has validated the district's potential and enhanced investor confidence in Ghana's mining jurisdiction.Both executives reported exceptionally positive investor reception at the recent Canaccord conference, with fully booked meeting schedules and strong institutional interest from North American, Australian, and Asian investors. Market sentiment reflects bullish expectations for gold prices exceeding $3,000, driven by structural changes including central bank purchasing and global currency diversification strategies.The companies pursue different strategic approaches: AMEX focuses on a dual-path strategy combining near-term production through bulk sampling and toll milling with continued exploration, while G2 Goldfields emphasizes resource expansion before potential merger and acquisition opportunities.Both executives emphasized the importance of high-grade resources in current market conditions, noting that quality deposits maintain profitability across various gold price scenarios. The financing environment remains selective, favoring advanced projects with proven management teams and substantial resources, while access to capital remains constrained for less developed opportunities.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

    Another day, another cover-up by LA officials who seem allergic to transparency. Mayor Karen Bass and her team claim they 'can't find' crucial text messages exchanged during the Palisades fire while she was conveniently in Ghana. Sound familiar? It's the same playbook we saw in Seattle during CHAZ—officials magically losing communications that might expose their failures and negligence during crisis situations. This video exposes how LA officials first admitted they had the requested public records, then delayed for months before ultimately claiming those same records don't exist at all. Meanwhile, Governor Newsom claims he's completely exempt from public records laws. Is there anything more telling than officials who preach transparency while actively hiding their communications? Why would Bass and her acting mayor go to such lengths to hide these messages if there's nothing damning in them? How much worse was their response to the fire than we already know?Like, subscribe, and share to help expose the government officials who think accountability is optional while taxpayer money burns alongside LA neighborhoods.

    La Réunion, La Nouvelle-Orléans et Haïti sont convoqués dans cette magnifique session live ! (Rediffusion) Nos 1ers invités sont le groupe Grèn Sémé pour la sortie de l'EP Maloya Gazé + remixs Genre musical majeur de La Réunion, le Maloya, devient « gazé » (fou) à travers les sons composés par Grèn Sémé pour ce nouvel EP.Un maloya gazé qui se conjugue entre inspiration directe de la plus pure ligne de cette musique traditionnelle réunionnaise et son évolution, très actuelle, signature du groupe Grèn Semé.Composé en marge des sessions studio du dernier album en date, «Zamroza», les trois premiers titres de ce tout nouvel E.P révèlent cette facette solaire de la formation créole.On y goûte l'amour du texte et la soif de découverte. Et on savoure la justesse du mélange de leurs compositions. Entre inspiration de la tradition des plus grands morceaux en chants/percussion de l'histoire de l'île et les arrangements si singuliers et identifiables du groupe, Grèn Sémé offre trois hymnes qui se prêtent à merveille à l'exercice du remix.Bonus de luxe : les 3 Remixs de Voilaaa + La Dame + Guiss Guiss Bou bess. Voilaaa et le fabuleux Bruno Patchworks se sont emparés de « Siko » pour créer un hit de bal cap-verdien, funana avec ses mélodies entêtantes, c'est ultra-dansant ! La Dame, productrice et DJ de Belgique, remixe le titre éponyme vers une batida efficace pour le dance floor, les DJs et les danseurs. Les Guiss Guiss Bou Bess poussent un peu plus loin l'exercice du remix en ajoutant les sabars sénégalais et le chant de Mara Seck leader du groupe, répond à Carlo de Sacco sur le titre «Alkol», c'est beau et provoque une véritable explosion de joie et d'émotions.Titres joués au grand studio- Tanbour Live RFI + RFI Vidéos (titre «tanbour»)- Alkol, extrait Cd (Voilaaa remix) - Siko Live RFI + RFI Vidéos (titre «Siko»).VidéoLine Up : Carlo de Sacco (Chant, Kayanm, Tambour malbar), Mickaël Beaulieu (Synthé, chœurs), Bruno Cadet (Guitares, chœurs), Rémi Cazal (Programmation, synthé, chœurs) et Germain Lebot (Percussions, batterie, chœurs).+ Cedric Corrieri (Tech Son).Son : Mathias Taylor, Camille Roch.                                                                              RFI Vidéos : Dominique Fiant, Cyril Etienne, Christophe Valette, réalisation : Vanille Foucher.► EP Maloya Gazé (Markotaz 2024).Site Markotaz.YouTube mini concert Grèn Sémé : Les 3 titres filmés par RFI Vidéos, à savoir Bhopal, Tanbour et SikoSite Grèn Sémé - Facebook - YouTube.#musique #maloya #îledelareunion Puis la #SessionLive reçoit Leyla McCalla pour la sortie de l'album Sun Without The HeatNée à New York d'un couple d'émigrants et d'activistes haïtiens, Leyla McCalla a développé une fascination précoce pour Haïti et sa culture, en partie grâce au temps qu'elle a passé chez sa grand-mère lorsqu'elle était enfant. Après avoir déménagé au Ghana pendant deux ans et obtenu plus tard son diplôme, elle a finalement dérivé vers le sud jusqu'à la Nouvelle-Orléans, où elle voulait gagner sa vie en jouant du violoncelle dans les rues du quartier français.Son dévouement à éclairer les racines noires de la culture américaine l'a finalement conduite aux Carolina Chocolate Drops. Après deux ans de tournée et d'enregistrement avec le groupe lauréat d'un Grammy Award, elle part poursuivre sa propre carrière en tant qu'artiste solo.L'album Sun Whithout The Heat est son 5ème enregistrement studio. Tout au long des dix titres de l'album, McCalla parvient à un équilibre entre pesanteur et légèreté grâce à des mélodies et des rythmes issus de diverses formes de musique afro-diasporique, notamment l'afrobeat, les modalités éthiopiennes, le tropicalisme brésilien, ainsi que le folk et le blues américains.Titres joués au grand studio- Take Me Away Live RFI- Scaled To Survive, extrait de l'album- Give Yourself a Break Live RFI.Line Up : Leyla McCalla, chant, Pete Olynciw, basse, Nathum Zdybel, guitars, Caito Sanchez, batterie.Son : Mathias Taylor, Camille Roch, Jérémie Besset► Album Sun Without The Heat (Label: Anti-/Pias 2024).YouTube - Site - facebook.#musique #folk #blues #nouvelleorleans #haïti

    In our latest episode we speak with the author and academic Frank Gerits, whose most recent work explores the history of the intense ideological battle which took place in the 1950s and 1960s for African hearts and minds. His book, The Ideological Scramble for Africa, explores how this competition wasn't just between Cold War superpowers, but among African leaders themselves who were projecting competing visions of what African modernity should look like. In this conversation with Robert Amsterdam, Dr. Gerits gives an informed portrait of key figures such as Ghana's Kwame Nkrumah, whose revolutionary call for immediate continental unity challenged both colonial powers and fellow African leaders. While leaders like Senegal's Senghor favored maintaining ties with Europe and others promoted regional federations, Nkrumah demanded complete independence and a "Monroe Doctrine for Africa" that would keep the continent out of global power struggles entirely. Gerits discussess his views on the fascinating psychological dimension of decolonization, showing how Western powers promoted "modernization" programs designed to psychologically transform Africans, while leaders like Nkrumah and intellectuals like Frantz Fanon fought to reclaim African cultural identity. The louder Africans demanded independence, the more Western powers interpreted this as evidence they needed more assistance—a dynamic that continues today. Be sure to explore our library of past podcast episodes, which include more than a dozen recent books on Africa.

    Your skincare brand might claim to be "clean," but EvanHealy is taking it to an entirely new level with regenerative organic certification.In this conversation with Jamie Burkhalter, holistic aesthetician and herbal formulator at EvanHealy, we dive deep into the revolutionary concept of regenerative organic certified skincare. While many brands focus on organic ingredients, EvanHealy is pioneering a movement that goes beyond basic sustainability. They strive to actively heal the soil, support farming communities, and create products with unprecedented potency and purity.The difference between organic and regenerative organic is striking. It's not just about avoiding pesticides, but about farming practices that enhance soil health, prevent erosion, and create more nutrient-dense plants. Jamie explains how EvanHealy works directly with farmers across the globe. From Morocco to Ghana, creating transparent supply chains that honor both the land and the people who tend it. This approach results in products like their whipped shea butter, which maintains its therapeutic properties through careful processing techniques.In this episode, we also unveil Evan Healy's latest innovation - their Irish Sea Moss and Tremella Mushroom Hydrosol Cream - and discuss why their commitment to regenerative practices creates skincare that's not just clean but truly transformative. Whether you're a skincare enthusiast or just beginning your clean beauty journey, you'll gain a deeper understanding of why how your products are grown matters just as much as their ingredient list.In today's episode, we're chatting about: • The crucial difference between organic and regenerative organic certification • Why melting shea butter destroys its therapeutic properties (and what to do instead) • How Evan Healy maintains direct relationships with farmers around the world • The science behind why regeneratively grown plants create more effective skincare • Details about their groundbreaking new hydrosol cream featuring mushroom extractsGet 20% off all evanhealy products (always!)Shownotes

Not surprisingly, Big Tech placement has dropped off at most top MBA programs. Graham highlighted two Real Humans alumni spotlights, alums from Duke / Fuqua working at EY-Parthenon, and UCLA / Anderson working at Google. Finally, Graham noted the recently recorded podcast featuring the leader of career services at Georgetown / McDonough, talking about the triple jump - changing industries, functions and geographies. For this week, for the candidate profile review portion of the show, Alex selected two ApplyWire entries and one DecisionWire entry: This week's first MBA admissions candidate works in investment banking and is from Ghana. They have a 325 GRE score. This week's second MBA candidate is from Argentina and appears to have a very interesting profile, but their GRE score of 309 is going to be an issue. They plan to retake. We also think they should reconsider their school targeting. The final MBA candidate is deciding between Chicago / Booth and Michigan / Ross, with scholarship.

    The Texture of Change: Dress, Self-Fashioning, and History in Western Africa, 1700 – 1850 (Ohio UP, 2024) examines historical change across a broad region of western Africa—from Saint Louis, Senegal, to Freetown, Sierra Leone—through the development of textile commerce, consumption, and dress. Indigo-dyed and printed cotton, wool, linen, and silk cloths constituted major trade items that linked African producers and consumers to exchange networks that were both regional and global. While much of the historiography of commerce in Africa in the eighteenth century has focused on the Atlantic slave trade and its impact, this study follows the global cloth trade to account for the broad extent and multiple modes of western Africa's engagement with Europe, Asia, and the Americas. Jody Benjamin analyzes a range of archival, visual, oral, and material sources drawn from three continents to illuminate entanglements between local textile industries and global commerce and between the politics of Islamic reform and encroaching European colonial power. The study highlights the roles of a diverse range of historical actors mentioned only glancingly in core-periphery or Atlantic-centered framings: women indigo dyers, maroon cotton farmers, petty traveling merchants, caravan guides, and African Diaspora settlers. It argues that their combined choices within a set of ecological, political, and economic constraints structured networks connecting the Atlantic and Indian Ocean perimeters. Jody Benjamin is a social and cultural historian of western Africa with expertise in the period between 1650 and 1850. His research is informed by a methodological concern to center the diverse experiences and perspectives of Africans in ways that transcend the limitations of the colonial archive. In broad terms, Prof. Benjamin's scholarship interrogates the multiple connections between west African, African diaspora and global histories through the lens of material culture, technology, labor, gender and race to reshape how historians think about western Africa's role in the history of global capitalism and its connections to contemporary questions of global inequality. Dr. Benjamin's work has been supported by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the University of California Regents, University of California Humanities Research Initiative (UCHRI), the Hellman Fellows Fund, and the John Carter Brown Library at Brown University. From 2022-2023, he was the Principal Investigator for a Mellon Sawyer Seminar, “Unarchiving Blackness,” exploring archival practices in African and African Diaspora Studies. Prior to Howard University, Dr. Benjamin taught at the University of California, Riverside. You can learn more about his work here.
