American Rare Earths (ASX: ARR | OTCQX: ARRNF and AMRRY) has successfully demonstrated a tenfold upgrade in rare earths concentration at its Halleck Creek Rare Earths Project in Wyoming, USA. Large-scale metallurgical test work, conducted in collaboration with Mineral Technologies, confirmed that conventional, low-cost processing methods can efficiently upgrade the ore. Testing upgraded mineralised feedstock from 3,438 ppm (0.34%) TREO to approximately 37,200 ppm (3.72%) TREO. This process removes 93.5% of non-rare earth material early, leaving only 6.5% of mined ore for further refining, which is expected to reduce operating costs. The test work utilised MG12 Spirals and Induced Roll Magnetic Separation, both commercially proven technologies. These results validate the assumptions in the company's scoping study and provide critical inputs for the pre-feasibility study (PFS). Initial recovery rates were 62%, lower than the 78% outlined in the scoping study, however further test work is ongoing to optimise the flowsheet and improve efficiency. An updated scoping study, incorporating the recent JORC resource increase, will be issued soon. The company states that successfully demonstrating this upgrade at production scale is a key milestone that further de-risks the project as it moves toward development. #AmericanRareEarths, #RareEarths, #HalleckCreek, #Mining, #CriticalMinerals, #Metallurgy, #MineralProcessing, #Beneficiation, #MiningTechnology, #PreFeasibilityStudy, #ScopingStudy,

On this episode of Crazy Wisdom, host Stewart Alsop talks with Troy Johnson, founder and partner at Resource Development Group, LLC, about the deep history and modern implications of mining. From the earliest days of salt extraction to the role of rare earth metals in global geopolitics, the conversation covers how mining has shaped technology, warfare, and supply chains. They discuss the strategic importance of minerals like gallium and germanium, the rise of drone warfare, and the ongoing battle for resource dominance between China and the West. Listeners can find more about Troy's work at resourcedevgroup.com (www.resourcedevgroup.com) and connect with him on LinkedIn via the Resource Development Group page.Check out this GPT we trained on the conversation!Timestamps00:00 Introduction to the Crazy Wisdom Podcast00:17 The Origins of Mining00:28 Early Uses of Mined Materials03:29 The Evolution of Mining Techniques07:56 Mining in the Industrial Revolution09:05 Modern Mining and Strategic Metals12:25 The Role of AI in Modern Warfare24:36 Decentralization in Warfare and Governance30:51 AI's Unpredictable Moves in Go32:26 The Shift in Media Trust33:40 The Rise of Podcasts35:47 Mining Industry Innovations39:32 Geopolitical Impacts on Mining40:22 The Importance of Supply Chains44:37 Challenges in Rare Earth Processing51:26 Ensuring a Bulletproof Supply Chain57:23 Conclusion and Contact InformationKey InsightsMining is as old as civilization itself – Long before the Bronze Age, humans were mining essential materials like salt and ochre, driven by basic survival needs. Over time, mining evolved from a necessity for tools and pigments to a strategic industry powering economies and military advancements. This deep historical perspective highlights how mining has always been a fundamental pillar of technological and societal progress.The geopolitical importance of critical minerals – Modern warfare and advanced technology rely heavily on strategic metals like gallium, germanium, and antimony. These elements are essential for electronic warfare, radar systems, night vision devices, and missile guidance. The Chinese government, recognizing this decades ago, secured global mining and processing dominance, putting Western nations in a vulnerable position as they scramble to reestablish domestic supply chains.The rise of drone warfare and EMP defense systems – Military strategy is shifting toward drone swarms, where thousands of small, cheap, AI-powered drones can overwhelm traditional defense systems. This has led to the development of countermeasures like EMP-based defense systems, including the Leonidas program, which uses gallium nitride to disable enemy electronics. This new battlefield dynamic underscores the urgent need for securing critical mineral supplies to maintain technological superiority.China's long-term strategy in resource dominance – Unlike Western nations, where election cycles dictate short-term decision-making, China has played the long game in securing mineral resources. Through initiatives like the Belt and Road, they have locked down raw materials while perfecting the refining process, making them indispensable to global supply chains. Their recent export bans on gallium and germanium show how resource control can be weaponized for geopolitical leverage.Ethical mining and the future of clean extraction – Mining has long been associated with environmental destruction and poor labor conditions, but advances in technology and corporate responsibility are changing that. Major mining companies are now prioritizing ethical sourcing, reducing emissions, and improving worker safety. Blockchain-based tracking systems are also helping verify supply chain integrity, ensuring that materials come from environmentally and socially responsible sources.The vulnerability of supply chains and the need for resilience – The West's reliance on outsourced mineral processing has created significant weaknesses in national security. A disruption—whether through trade restrictions, political instability, or sabotage—can cripple industries dependent on rare materials. A key takeaway is the need for a “bulletproof supply chain,” where critical materials are sourced, processed, and manufactured within allied nations to mitigate risk.AI, decentralization, and the next era of industrial warfare – As AI becomes more embedded in military decision-making and logistics, the balance between centralization and decentralization is being redefined. AI-driven drones, automated mining, and predictive supply chain management are reshaping how nations prepare for conflict. However, this also introduces risks, as AI operates within unpredictable “black boxes,” potentially leading to unintended consequences in warfare and resource management.

Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce promising assay results from the company's Phase 2 diamond drill program at the Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project in Peru. The latest results include data from 22 drill holes out of the planned 60-hole program, with additional results pending overlimit check assays. Rushton highlighted that the results were highly encouraging, with drill hole AFD078 intersecting 9.1m at 447g/t Ag, 1.85% Cu, and 17.96% Mn from surface. The Phase 2 program was designed to achieve several key objectives: converting Inferred Resources to Measured and Indicated, evaluating key geological structures, and stepping out from historic high-grade intercepts. The company has approximately 30 to 40 holes left to report, with the ultimate goal of finalizing data for engineering studies. Rushton emphasized that expanding the resource indefinitely is not the priority, as a cash flow model dictates that resources beyond 15 to 16 years of production do not add value. Instead, the focus remains on ensuring sufficient data for geotechnical, metallurgical, and engineering studies to advance the project efficiently. #proactiveinvestors #aftermathsilverltd #tsxv #aag #otcqx #aagff #mining #SilverMining, #BerenguelaProject, #MiningInvestment, #SilverAssets, #ChileMining, #PeruMining, #Metallurgy, #PreliminaryEconomicAssessment, #SilverCopperOre, #MiningProjects, #OTCMarket, #ResourceEstimates, #EconomicAssessment, #SilverPrices, #MiningPermit

We discuss some very interesting new developments in the maverick research being done on the ancient stone vases from Egypt. Ben and Russ took a trip to Florida to get some fragments of vases examined using a Scanning Electron Microscope. No copper was found, but there were traces of other metals that the ancient Egyptians are not supposed to have had access to. We were streaming this live, so we were also responding to questions from the chat.You can watch the youtube version here:https://www.youtube.com/live/z2ZwN7bcDPY?si=YiN3aGzHMTL5vnsB

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast™, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with economist and President's Fellow at the University of Calgary's School of Public Policy Jack Mintz about Canada's reinvigorating and expanding ageing infrastructure. Mintz said privatization is one possible route to increasing infrastructure across Canada, and pointed to the telecommunications industry as an example of infrastructure that works reliably and upgrades at a regular cadence. Pension funds investing in infrastructure is another possibility, along with public-private partnerships (P3). Housing affordability is another factor and Mintz said a big issue is that installing new infrastructure can lead to a rise in housing prices. Green infrastructure can also be more expensive initially with benefits that aren't immediately apparent leading to sticker-shock. He advocated for honesty from government in letting consumers and investors know what the costs are of green infrastructure up front.

On this episode of The Construction Record Podcast™, digital media editor Warren Frey speaks with BCIT Centre for Welding Technologies and Metallurgy director Mathew Smith about “cobots,” robots designed to work collaboratively with students and workers in industrial environments. Smith said cobots differ from traditional industrial robots in size, function and cost and because of the use of sensors can maneuver around human operators, making them much more flexible in a learning environment. Cobots do not replace human skills, he added, as they follow preprogrammed instructions, and BCIT students are taught manual dexterity skills that remain fundamental to the welding trade. Cobots enhance work, Smith said, and alleviate tradespeople and students of rote tasks to focus on more complex work.  You can listen to our recent podcast with  ConstructConnect chief economist Michael Guckes here and our episodes are available at the Daily Commercial News and Journal of Commerce websites, on Libsyn and at  Apple Podcasts, Spotify and Amazon Music's podcast section.

Interview with Tim Moody, President & CEO of Pan Global Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/pan-global-resources-tsxvpgz-the-next-big-copper-discoveries-in-spains-iberian-pyrite-belt-5029Recording date: 4th April 2024Pan Global Resources (TSXV:PGZ) delivered an encouraging update on its copper and tin exploration projects in the Iberian pyrite belt of Spain. The key highlight was the strong tin metallurgical results from the La Romana project, where recoveries of 58% and concentrate grades of 63% tin place La Romana at the upper end of typical ranges for similar deposits globally.CEO Tim Moody emphasized the significance of the results, noting that tin could comprise 15-20% of the in-situ value of the mineralization at La Romana, alongside the copper. This suggests tin could have a meaningful positive impact on the economics of a future mining operation. Importantly, the company achieved the excellent tin recoveries and concentrate grades with a simple, industry-standard processing flowsheet.The strong tin metallurgy adds an attractive by-product opportunity to Pan Global's compelling copper exploration story. The company sees excellent potential to expand the mineralized zones at both La Romana and the nearby Cañada Honda project, where drilling is ongoing. La Romana remains open, particularly to the west where tin grades are increasing. At Cañada Honda, Pan Global is drill testing geophysical targets that resemble the "signatures" of other major deposits in the Iberian pyrite belt.With around C$5 million in working capital, Pan Global is well-funded to advance La Romana and Cañada Honda through 2024 under its current exploration plans. The Iberian pyrite belt is elephant country for VMS deposits, and the company is applying a proven exploration model with success.The positive fundamentals for copper and tin provide a supportive macro backdrop. Copper is essential for the energy transition, while tin is experiencing rising demand due to its use in advanced electronics, electric vehicles, and energy storage. Industry experts forecast looming deficits for both metals later this decade as demand outpaces supply. This bodes well for the value of new discoveries.In summary, Pan Global Resources offers investors exposure to two critical "future-facing" metals in a world-class mining district. The La Romana tin metallurgy exceeds expectations and complements an already compelling copper exploration story. With drilling ongoing to build on the positive results to date, the company is well positioned for a potential re-rating as the junior resource sector emerges from a cyclical bottom.View Pan Global Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/pan-global-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
