Tim Kingsley, VP Exploration of Coppernico Metals, commented, “We are very pleased with the outcome of the [gravity, magnetic and photogrammetry] surveys. Initial results are being used to provide clearer definition of these significant, multi-kilometre-scale skarn and porphyry targets which remain mostly untested by drilling.” Ivan Bebek, Chair and CEO of Coppernico Metals, commented, “The new gravity and magnetic datasets represent a major advancement in our understanding of the geology between Antapampa and Tipicancha, and have highlighted several large-scale targets that remain untested. With this technical foundation in place, Coppernico is now strongly positioned to launch a comprehensive, multi-target drill program that could deliver several opportunities for a transformational discovery.” Sponsor: https://coppernicometals.com/ TSX:COPR; OTCQB: CPPMF; FSE: 9I3 0:00 Introduction 2:32 Phase 1 Drilling Results & Iterative Approach 4:21 Survey Results & Target Refinement 6:32 Las Bambas Analog & Regional Context 8:10 Scale & Grade Potential 9:44 Phase 2 Drilling Strategy 12:48 Tipicancha Target Discussion 13:50 Antapampa Target 14:53 Timeline, Financing & Permits 17:31 Long-term Strategy & Market Timing 18:52 NYSE Listing Plans? 19:40 Closing Remarks Press release discussed: https://coppernicometals.com/coppernico-completes-gravity-and-magnetic-surveys-and-refines-large-skarn-porphyry-targets/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor Coppernico Metals pays MSE a United States dollar seven thousand per month coverage fee.

In today's episode, we chat to Shaun Bunn, Managing Director at Empire Metals, an AIM and OTC-traded exploration & resource development company who are developing Pitfield, an emerging giant titanium project in Western Australia. We talk about titanium, a critical mineral the West desperately needs more of and dive into the scale and purity of the Pitfield discovery in Western Australia and the upcoming drill programme. Why its location and government backing matter, and what makes this deposit fundamentally different from most titanium projects worldwide. Most importantly, we discuss how that difference could give Empire a serious strategic advantage as secure supply becomes a global priority. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Pitfield project is described as one of the world's largest titanium systems, with a 2.2 billion-tonne mineral resource that covers less than one-fifth of the identified anomaly. Titanium is a critical mineral for the West, particularly for NATO defence and aerospace; currently, supply is heavily concentrated in China (60%) and Russia. Unlike 90% of the world's supply which comes from ilmenite, Pitfield consists of anatase and rutile in sandstone, which lacks common impurities like chrome or uranium. Because the minerals are already oxidised, they can be processed at lower temperatures (just over 100°C) without the intensive acid and energy requirements of traditional smelting. BEST MOMENTS "We've found what is clearly the world's largest titanium system on the planet... it probably represents at least a third of the world's total resource in one spot." "Titanium is as strong as steel and half the weight... but the concentration of supply sits in, firstly China—something like 60% of all the metal—and Russia." "Metals is one of the key cornerstones of the mining industry... you need innovation, you need courage amongst all things to tackle some of these projects." "It's like replicating the chemistry that's already happened over time, only trying to do it in 24 hours and not 600 million years."

Lithium has doubled in three months. Copper is printing record highs. Silver went vertical—then collapsed. The move was fast. The reversals were faster. Volatility isn't elevated. It's systemic. But this isn't just another commodity cycle. These metals sit at the core of the energy transition. They're embedded in batteries, EVs, transmission lines, datacenters, wind turbines, and solar modules. When they move, the entire transition complex moves with them. So, what are we really looking at? Is this a positioning squeeze in thin markets? Or the early tremors of a structural repricing? The divide is clear. At The Carlyle Group, Jeff Currie argues we're only “on the foothills of the Himalayas” — the early stage of a structural supercycle driven by electrification, grid build-out, and constrained supply. Ed Morse pushes back. High prices cure high prices. Capital flows. Supply responds. Markets rebalance. Cycles end the way they always have. Two very different frameworks. One structural. One cyclical. To cut through the noise, Laurent and Gerard sit down with Matt Fernley, Managing Director at Battery Materials Review and Partner at RK Equity. They dissect what's actually driving these rallies — inventory tightness, permitting bottlenecks, capital discipline, geopolitics, demand elasticity. They confront the supply question head-on: Can new production realistically catch up — on time, on budget, and at scale? And they explore the technologies that could reshape the curve — from the re-emergence of direct lithium extraction (DLE) to the accelerating development of sodium-ion batteries. This isn't just about price volatility. It's about whether the energy transition is entering a new cost regime. Because if these inputs are structurally repricing, everything downstream changes. And if they aren't — the unwind could be just as violent.----Link to the report by the Volta Foundationhttps://volta.foundation/battery-report-2025/
When critical equipment fails, from a chain hoist to an aircraft part, operators want to find out what went wrong. Normal wear and tear, before a failure occurs, can also prompt tests to determine remaining service life for a part or system. A materials science and failure analysis engineer can investigate, digging deep to uncover the root cause of a failure or identify a potential malfunction. This expertise prevents loss of equipment or in extreme cases, loss of life. Listen now as SwRI materials science and failure analysis engineer and metallurgist Dr. Mirella Vargas discusses what is revealed during a thorough analysis, down to the microstructure of metals and materials.
Soybean oil and crude supported grains while wheat corrected on rain forecasts. Corn export demand strong. Cattle fell on packer strike rumors. Metals surged sharply.

From ancient times to modern markets, gold and silver have captured people's attention—especially during seasons of uncertainty. It's one reason more believers are asking whether precious metals belong in their investment portfolios. The question isn't simply financial; it's also about stewardship. Where do metals fit—and where don't they—when we're seeking to make wise, faithful decisions with what God has entrusted to us?A Long History as a Store of ValuePrecious metals are among the oldest forms of money in human history. For thousands of years, gold and silver have served as a store of value. Even today, in an economy dominated by fiat currencies, they still carry an aura of stability and permanence.There's a practical reason for that: governments can print more dollars, but they can't print more gold or silver. As a result, investors often turn to metals during periods of inflation, geopolitical tensions, or financial instability. They're commonly viewed as a hedge—an asset that may preserve purchasing power when confidence in broader systems begins to waver.That perception holds some truth. But it's also important to separate reality from myth. Precious metals are not magic assets, and they don't function like traditional growth investments.How Precious Metals Differ from Traditional InvestmentsThey Don't Produce IncomeStocks may pay dividends, bonds generate interest, and real estate can produce rental income. Precious metals, by contrast, do not produce income. They simply exist as assets whose value rises or falls over time.That doesn't mean they can't appreciate. But it does mean their return profile is fundamentally different from owning productive assets. Gold sits still; businesses build.Prices Can Be VolatileMetals are often described as “safe,” yet their market prices can swing sharply. There have been extended seasons when gold and silver prices barely moved—or declined—reminding investors that stability and growth are not the same thing.Costs MatterOwning physical metals involves more than just the purchase price. Coins and bars often carry premiums, and they require storage, insurance, and security considerations.For those who prefer not to handle physical metals, exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and similar vehicles offer another path. These track the price of gold or silver without the logistical challenges of storing them, making them a practical option for many investors.Allocation Is KeyFinancial professionals who favor precious metals typically recommend keeping them as a small portion of a diversified portfolio—often around 5%, and rarely more than 10%. When metals dominate a portfolio, they can crowd out assets better suited for long-term growth.What Scripture Says About Wealth and SecurityThe Bible references gold and silver frequently—not only as commodities, but also as symbols of value, beauty, craftsmanship, and worship. Yet Scripture consistently warns against placing our trust in them.Paul writes, “As for the rich in this present age, charge them not to be haughty, nor to set their hopes on the uncertainty of riches, but on God” (1 Timothy 6:17).The issue isn't money itself; it's misplaced hope. Gold cannot redeem us, rescue us, or ultimately secure our future. Only the Lord can do that.Proverbs echoes this truth: “The wealth of the rich is their fortified city; they imagine it a wall too high to scale” (Proverbs 18:11). The key word is imagine. Wealth—even in solid forms like precious metals—can create an illusion of safety.That's especially important to remember because metals often attract attention during periods of fear. But fear is not a reliable investment strategy. Wisdom is. Fear rushes; wisdom moves slowly, with patience and prayer.Three Principles for Faithful Investors1. Metals Are a Tool, Not a TreasurePrecious metals don't need to be spiritualized or demonized. They're simply one part of God's created resources—useful when held with open hands and proper perspective.2. They Should Complement, Not Replace, DiversificationSome investors feel tempted to go all-in on gold during uncertain times. But Scripture doesn't call us to make decisions rooted in fear. Metals may play a role, but they shouldn't replace a well-diversified plan built for long-term growth and stability.3. Every Financial Decision Is Ultimately SpiritualWhether investing in index funds, bonds, real estate, or bullion, the deeper question remains: Lord, how can I honor You with what You've entrusted to me?If precious metals help reduce risk, preserve purchasing power, or support generosity over time, they may serve a wise purpose. But if they fuel anxiety or foster a bunker mentality, they can quietly pull our hearts off course.Precious metals may help preserve purchasing power, but they don't produce income, guarantee returns, or provide ultimate security. They are a hedge—not a haven.Our true security isn't found in vaults, markets, or accounts. It's found in Christ alone. And when that truth anchors our hearts, we're free to make financial decisions with wisdom, patience, and peace.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:My husband and I are 79, debt-free, and don't have life insurance. I have $5,000 I'd like to grow to help cover burial expenses, plus small amounts in savings and a CD. We live on about $1,500 a month. How should I handle that $5,000?I have a stock that's down over 40%, rated poorly, and it makes up a large part of my portfolio. I want to sell it, but I don't know where to move the funds. What would be a better option?I used a 12-month same-as-cash plan to remodel my bathroom. I can pay it off on time, but are there any hidden risks with these offers? Also, I checked my credit at AnnualCreditReport.com and noticed it doesn't provide a credit score. What's the difference between a credit report and a credit score?I have a whole life insurance policy I bought years ago, and may not need anymore. If I cash it out, I'm concerned about taxes and how it could affect things like Medicare. What options should I consider?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)AnnualCreditReport.com | Credit KarmaChristian Credit CounselorsChristian Community Credit Union (CCCU) | AdelFiOur Ultimate Treasure: A 21-Day Journey to Faithful StewardshipWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.
