Noronex has put its foot on a substantial tin project in Alaska. It has a historical resource, and the emphasis will be on establishing a JORC resource and then growing this to capitalise on booming global demand for tin. Tin is on the US Critical Minerals list, but there are no tin producers in America. Guest Bio James Thompson is Chief Executive Officer of Noronex Limited (ASX: NRX), an ASX-listed mineral explorer advancing the newly optioned Sleitat tin-tungsten-silver project in Alaska alongside its Kalahari Copper Belt interests in Namibia and Botswana. He was appointed CEO in July 2026, coinciding with Noronex securing an exclusive option over Sleitat. Thompson has been involved with Noronex since 2018, when he became a director of the company's founding copper subsidiaries, before being appointed an executive director of the company in May 2021. He holds a Bachelor of Commerce and a Bachelor of Laws, and began his career as a chartered accountant with KPMG. Over a 25-year career he has built investment experience with firms including Macquarie Bank, Quadrant Private Equity and Viburnum Funds, where he has served as Investment Director since 2014. He has also been a founder and director of numerous other ASX-listed and private resource companies over the past decade, spanning the base, precious and battery metals sectors.

Noronex has secured a 60-day option to acquire 100% of the Sleitat tin-tungsten-silver project in Alaska, targeting a historical (non-JORC) estimate of 25.9 million tonnes at up to 0.37% tin, representing an estimated 58,000 to 96,000 tonnes of contained tin. With the US holding no domestic tin production and tin formally designated a critical mineral by the US government, the deal places Noronex in a category with almost no ASX-listed peers targeting US tin supply. The project is genuine brownfields, not a speculative punt. Sleitat was discovered and drilled by Cominco in the 1980s, including a standout historical intercept of 30 metres at 1.5% tin, with the US Bureau of Mines later compiling the historical resource estimate from that work. Thompson notes Noronex has since re-examined the preserved drill core using XRF technology and confirmed high-grade tin exactly where expected, giving the company confidence to move straight toward a JORC-compliant exploration target rather than starting from scratch. Deal terms are structured to avoid dilution before drilling begins. The acquisition is weighted toward deferred and milestone-based payments tied to future resource growth, requiring only around $1.5 million upfront in cash and scrip, funded from Noronex's existing treasury. Thompson says the company can complete due diligence, exercise the option and define an exploration target without raising capital, only tapping equity markets once it is ready to fund drilling. Tin's supply-demand fundamentals underpin the investment case. Thompson points to International Tin Association forecasts of continued deficits and roughly 25% demand growth by the mid-2030s, driven by solder use in semiconductors, AI data centres, electric vehicles and solar panels. With Indonesian producers shifting to costlier offshore dredging and no US tin production since the 1990s, he argues the timing is right for new, low-cost, shallow open-pit style supply to enter the market. Kalahari copper exposure is now fully funded by South32. Noronex's roughly one-million-hectare copper package across Namibia and Botswana is being advanced under an earn-in with South32, which is funding up to $20 million of exploration over five years to earn a 60% interest, with a further drilling program planned for around October. Thompson frames this as free-carried upside sitting alongside the new tin flagship, while Noronex retains a tight share register, with more than 50% held by its top 20 shareholders.  

In February 1893, Atlanta endured a week of financial scandal, suicide and shocking violence that newspapers would later remember as Black Week. The darkest chapter unfolded inside the home of one of the city's most respected families, where two sisters were murdered and a third calmly confessed. Through contemporary accounts and Julia Force's own writings, this episode explores one of Georgia's most haunting nineteenth-century murder cases and the mystery that still surrounds it.

She came to the United States from Cameroon almost 30 years ago with a master's degree in education, almost no exposure to computers, and a goal to pursue a doctorate. Her two sisters, both already in IT careers, redirected her. She thought she could never succeed in the field. She became an IT help desk worker. Then a network administrator. Then an IT manager. Then a director. Then a CIO. Then a COO in Spain. Then a Chief Technology and Innovation Officer. Then a Vice President and CIO at a California State University. Her PhD — the original goal from 1995 — she completed in 2019. Twenty-four years later than planned. Dr. Monique is Vice President for Information Technology and CIO at California State University, Chico, and a multiple CIO award winner. In this episode, she shares the specific moments — some planned, some forced on her — that defined how she uses her voice to steer her career. You'll learn: Dr. Monique was the only person of color in senior leadership at an elite STEM university. She organized the conversation her organization wasn't having: a roundtable on race and social justice with her IT team. She went first, dropped her own protective mask, and shared her own experiences with racism — which is what unlocked everyone else. The sessions grew into a six-cohort DEI program across the entire university, co-developed under her executive vice president. A junior male employee publicly questioned in a group meeting whether she was being overpaid. Her two white male predecessors' salaries had never been questioned by that same group. She stood up calmly and said: "I did not come to this meeting to discuss my salary. But if I must, I believe I am appropriately compensated for the work that I do." The room went silent. How she trained herself to respond to the angry Black woman stereotype: when emotions rise, her voice drops lower instead of higher. She slows down. She puts her hands on her thighs. She stands with her feet flat on the ground. She stated her intention to her team before a difficult conversation: "I am standing up not to be overpowering, but because having my feet on the ground helps me control my emotions." Days later, people were still reaching out saying it changed how they see her. At a conference in Chicago, a vendor friend insisted she skip the Super Bowl to meet someone he knew. She agreed. The stranger asked her about her career. She "unabashedly spoke up" about her achievements. He told her they were building a role to lead technological innovation. She applied. She got the job as Chief Technology and Innovation Officer. She applied for Deputy CIO at the Colorado School of Mines with none of the required higher education experience. Got interviewed. Got the job. Eight months later: interim CIO. Three months after that: full CIO. She directly asked her executive vice president there to sponsor her — sharing her goals specifically and asking for stretch assignments. That EVP let her serve as deputy COO while still serving as CIO. The framework she and Ivna coin in this episode: "confident humility." Women often embrace the humility and delete the confidence. The combination of both — taking no apologies for what she has accomplished while doing so with poise and grace — is what she credits for attracting sponsors throughout her career. Why she asks directly for sponsorship by naming specific career goals and specific asks, and why she audits her sponsor network regularly — including thinking about what would happen to her if her strongest advocate left the organization tomorrow. About Dr. Monique: Vice President for Information Technology and Chief Information Officer at California State University, Chico. Multiple CIO award winner. Immigrant from Cameroon. Former CIO at Colorado School of Mines, Chief Technology and Innovation Officer, and Chief Operating Officer in Spain. PhD in Education and Organizational Leadership.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes back Steve Hanke back to the show. Steve Hanke is a Professor of Applied Economics at Johns Hopkins University. Hanke highlights the two major wars—the U.S.-Israel conflict with Iran and the Ukraine war—as critical disruptors of global commodity flows. He notes that the Strait of Hormuz is effectively closed, with Iran controlling it, and the Houthis threaten the Red Sea chokepoint, severely constricting crude and refined product supplies. Russia's cutoff of diesel exports and domestic fuel shortages compound the strain. Oil markets are in backwardation, with spot prices above futures, signaling dangerously low inventories that have cushioned prices so far but are nearing depletion. Hanke warns that once physical inventories run out, oil prices could spike dramatically, potentially later this summer. He advises going long on oil, especially major producers, as a straightforward trade for most investors. On gold, Hanke maintains a bullish outlook, projecting a peak around $6,000 per ounce based on historical ratios to real disposable income. He attributes recent pullbacks to dollar strength and rising interest rates but sees central bank buying as a fundamental driver. He also discusses the pressure on the Fed to monetize debt, which could fuel inflation and support gold. The conversation shifts to the broader commodity supercycle, fueled by deglobalization, underinvestment, and the need for larger precautionary inventories. Copper and tungsten are identified as clear bullish plays due to supply deficits. Hanke notes that high diesel prices are squeezing mining and agriculture, potentially raising output prices. He also touches on dollarization, recommending developing countries adopt the U.S. dollar to expand its use rather than de-dollarize. The interview concludes with Hanke emphasizing the importance of money supply growth as the key determinant of nominal GDP and inflation.

Fewer than half of American adults read a single book in 2022. Reading for pleasure has nearly halved in twenty years. Behind those numbers is a deeper story: What happens to a mind, and a democracy, when it loses the habit of sitting with a difficult idea for three hundred pages?In this episode, Reino traces the line from deep reading to deep thinking: how following a long argument builds the same muscle we need to resist slogans, hold nuance, and imagine lives unlike our own. He returns to a small town in rural KwaZulu-Natal, to a teacher named Andy Towert who could make a room fall silent with the toss of a leather bag, and to the books — King Solomon's Mines, The Pilgrimage, Anam Cara — that quietly redirected the course of his life.A reflection on reading, attention, and what a post-literate society stands to lose.#LivingToBe #LettersFromTheThreshold #WhyWeRead #DeepReading #Attention #Literacy #Empathy #Democracy #Pilgrimage #CaminoDeSantiago #ContemplativeLife #Bibliophile #SlowLiving #Storytelling⁠Subscribing to Letters from the Threshold⁠More Information:⁠⁠www.reinogevers.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://reinodiary.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Books:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Sages, Saints and Sinners⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Deep Walking for Body Mind and Soul⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Walking on Edge: A pilgrimage to Santiago⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Rory Johnston to the show. Rory Johnston is a Commodity Market Research Specializing in Oil and Gas. Johnston describes an unprecedented period of volatility in oil markets, where the supply-demand balance swung radically within a single month. Following a ceasefire in the Strait of Hormuz, a surge of previously stranded tankers created a temporary mini-glut, flipping market structures from severe backwardation into contango. However, this glut proved fleeting as inbound empty tankers, initially driven by the most risk-tolerant owners, have dried up, leaving Gulf loadings constrained by available shipping capacity. Consequently, supply is tightening aggressively again. The most significant factor absorbing the supply shock is China, which swung its crude imports down by five million barrels per day without clear economic damage domestically. Johnston explores speculative explanations, including massive refined product stock releases, a coal-to-petrochemical feedstock switch, or a geopolitical understanding with the US. He also suggests China may be using the crisis as a successful dry run for weathering a potential blockade in a Taiwan conflict scenario. This swing, totaling roughly half a billion barrels, dwarfs the collective releases from IEA member states. Beyond crude, the refined products market, particularly diesel, is critically tight. Diesel crack spreads have soared to staggering levels, driven by drone attacks damaging Russian refineries, prior damage in the Middle East, and China slashing product exports. Johnston clarifies that strategic petroleum reserves function as a supply boost, not passive inventory, and that operational tank minimums at hubs like Cushing primarily affect regional price differentials to discourage exports, not trigger infinite crude spikes. He concludes that the overriding vulnerability is refining capacity, which is easy to target and hard to defend, making North American facilities a potentially valuable geopolitical safe haven in the current drone warfare era.

Corra has never wanted to keep anything before.  Then you fall into her water. Your eyes turn iridescent.  Your body opens beneath her tentacles, and what should have become another ending instead becomes something Corra cannot understand... or resist.  At first, she believes the hope inside you must be the simple animal desire to survive. So she studies you.  But your hope does not taste like escape. It tastes like anticipation. Like hunger. Like an aching need for more.  Corra is made entirely from the absence of hope.  Now she cannot stop consuming yours.  She loses herself at your ear, devouring every soft response while the "hope" inside you grows hotter, sweeter and increasingly difficult to contain. Corra thought she had discovered something that could survive her.  She did not expect to discover something that could ruin her. #F4A #MonsterGirl #TentacleMonster #AncientWaterEntity #EldritchWoman #Horror #DarkFantasy #UrbExGoneWrong #UnderwaterHorror #AbandonedMine #BinauralAudio #3Dio #PossessiveMonster #CuriousMonster #ObsessiveMonster #AddictedToYou #YouTasteLikeHope #AncientBeingFallsFirst #MonsterBecomesAttached #DangerousComfort #SoftHorror #UncannyIntimacy #YoureMine #CreatureRomance #SlowBurn #MonsterIntimacy #TentacleRestraint #EarAttention #EarKissing #EarLicking #GentleBiting #Praise #BodyWorship #SensoryFocus #BreathplayThemes #OxygenControlThemes #UrbExGoneWrong

Indispensables à des pans entiers de l'économie mondiale, les cours des minéraux critiques ont bondi en 2025 et en cette première moitié de l'année, met en avant dans son rapport publié ce jeudi l'Agence internationale de l'énergie. Les prix du lithium ont doublé, les prix ont augmenté de +130 % pour le cobalt. Pourtant, le continent africain, qui possède près d'un tiers des réserves mondiales, profite peu de cette manne financière. Pour plus de revenus, les autorités africaines souhaitent plus de transformation locale. De notre correspondant à Abidjan, Le lithium, le cobalt, le cuivre ou encore le graphite sont devenus les matières premières les plus convoitées de la transition énergétique. Le continent africain concentre près de 30% des réserves mondiales de minéraux critiques, pour une valeur estimée à environ 29 500 milliards de dollars. Pourtant, la majeure partie de ces minerais quitte encore l'Afrique sans être transformée. Ce qui représente un manque à gagner pour le continent, explique le docteur Albert Kouadio, spécialiste des mines extractives : « Lorsqu'un pays donne des permis de recherche à des entreprises étrangères à l'extraction, au mieux, il a un retour de 10%. Le cœur des industries, ce sont les minéraux. Si l'Afrique veut être développée, on doit chercher des stratégies pour préserver notre sous-sol. » L'enjeu dépasse le simple raffinage. L'ambition est de fabriquer sur le continent des composants, voire des produits finis. Une manière de créer davantage d'emplois, de développer une industrie locale et de capter une plus grande part de la richesse générée par ces ressources. « Il ne faut pas s'arrêter aux premières transformations. Ce n'est pas qu'une question de raffinage et de process. Il faut aussi aller en aval des chaînes de valeur. Ça veut dire transformer soi-même, capter les primes d'aval. Cela veut dire les primes de marque, les primes de distribution », estime Othman El Ferdaous, l'ambassadeur du Maroc en Côte d'Ivoire. Énergie et coopération Mais cette ambition ne pourra se concrétiser sans une énergie abondante, fiable et à un coût compétitif. Car raffiner les minerais, fabriquer des composants ou assembler des batteries sont des activités très gourmandes en électricité. Pour le diplomate marocain, l'un des préalables à cette industrialisation passe par le renforcement des infrastructures énergétiques à l'échelle du continent. « Il y a un projet continental, le gazoduc africain atlantique qui réunira le Nigeria au Maroc puis vers l'Europe. C'est très important parce qu'il va desservir plus d'une dizaine de pays, souligne encore le diplomate. Et tous ces pays côtiers vont pouvoir avoir du gaz africain pour transformer avec des centrales de cycle combiné et produire de l'électricité industrielle compétitive. » La Côte d'Ivoire, qui a récemment accueilli un forum sur le sujet, entend se positionner sur cette nouvelle chaîne de valeur. Moins en vue sur la question, le pays dispose cependant lui aussi des minéraux critiques dans son sous-sol, principalement dans sa moitié ouest. Mais pour transformer ces ressources et bâtir une véritable industrie africaine, aucun pays ne pourra agir seul, estime le ministre ivoirien des Mines, du Pétrole et de l'Énergie. « Pour un minerai critique donné, il y a tel nombre de pays qui pourraient se mettre ensemble pour l'exploitation et il y a d'autres pays qui pourraient venir pour la transformation du semi-fini avant qu'on aborde le marché international », argumente Mamadou Sangafowa Coulibaly. Pour y parvenir, encore faut-il mobiliser les financements. Le président de la Banque africaine de développement, Sidi Ould Tah, assure que l'institution accompagnera le développement de chaînes de valeur régionales.

C dans l'air du 15 juillet 2026 - Fontainebleau : un "traître" parmi les pompiers Les incendies qui frappent la forêt de Fontainebleau touchent l'un des sites naturels les plus emblématiques de France. Ce massif, chargé d'histoire et de biodiversité, est aujourd'hui confronté à des flammes qui menacent un patrimoine exceptionnel. L'incendie principal, démarré dimanche autour de l'autoroute A6, a déjà parcouru quelque 2 000 hectares en deux jours. Face à l'urgence, 800 pompiers sont mobilisés jour et nuit, épaulés par des habitants et des bénévoles qui participent aux opérations ou soutiennent les secours sur le terrain. L'émotion est d'autant plus forte que l'origine de certains départs de feu provoque l'indignation. Parmi les interpellations, un pompier volontaire a reconnu être à l'origine d'un incendie en ayant "mis le feu à des brindilles avec un briquet et de l'essence". Un autre homme a admis "avoir accidentellement mis le feu en jetant sa cigarette" sur un autre lieu de départ de feu. Les enquêteurs sont parvenus à identifier rapidement les responsables présumés. Pour remonter jusqu'à l'origine d'un incendie, ils analysent le point de départ des flammes, recueillent les témoignages, et exploitent les images de vidéosurveillance lorsqu'elles existent. Ces incendies alimentent aussi les tensions politiques autour de la gestion du climat. Jean-Luc Mélenchon estime qu'ils sont la conséquence de "la stupidité du capitalisme" qui ne prend pas suffisamment en compte les enjeux environnementaux. Il accuse également son concurrent à l'élection présidentielle, Gabriel Attal, d'avoir annulé la commande de deux Canadair en procédant à des coupes budgétaires lorsqu'il était Premier ministre. Une version contestée par ce dernier. Au-delà de la France, plusieurs pays européens sont confrontés aux mêmes catastrophes. En Espagne, les incendies ont fait plusieurs victimes et relancent le débat sur la gestion des évacuations. Les experts rappellent enfin que le phénomène El Niño, combiné aux risques de canicule, au manque de pluie et à des vents favorables à la propagation des flammes, peut créer des incendies toujours plus violents et plus difficiles à maîtriser. Quelles conséquences peut avoir l'incendie de la forêt de Fontainebleau ? Comment les enquêteurs parviennent-ils à retrouver aussi rapidement les auteurs présumés d'un départ de feu ? Les États sont-ils aujourd'hui suffisamment préparés pour faire face à des feux de forêt d'une telle ampleur ?Nos experts :- Emma HAZIZA - Hydrologue et docteur de l'Ecole des Mines de Paris - Audrey GOUTARD - Grand reporter France Télévisions, spécialiste des faits de société - Gaël MUSQUET - Expert en prévention des risques naturels - Nicolas BERROD - Journaliste, chef adjoint du service Santé Sciences - « Le Parisien » - Éric BROCARDI (en duplex) - Porte-parole de la Fédération nationale des sapeurs-pompiers de FrancePRESENTATION : Caroline Roux - Aurélie Casse - REDIFFUSION : du lundi au vendredi vers 23h40.PRODUCTION DES PODCASTS: Jean-Christophe ThiéfineRÉALISATION : Nicolas Ferraro, Bruno Piney, Franck Broqua, Alexandre Langeard, Corentin Son, Benoît LemoinePRODUCTION : France Télévisions / Maximal ProductionsRetrouvez C DANS L'AIR sur internet & les réseaux :INTERNET : francetv.frFACEBOOK : https://www.facebook.com/Cdanslairf5TWITTER : https://twitter.com/cdanslairINSTAGRAM :https://www.instagram.com/cdanslair/

C dans l'air l'invitée du 14 juillet 2026 avec Emma Haziza, hydrologue, docteure de l'École des Mines de Paris, spécialisée dans l'adaptation de notre société au changement climatique.L'incendie qui ravage la forêt de Fontainebleau est toujours actif, alors que plus de 2 000 hectares ont déjà brûlé et que 850 pompiers sont toujours mobilisés pour tenter d'éteindre le sinistre. Des Canadairs ont pour la première fois été engagés en Ile-de-France. Sur l'ensemble du territoire, ce sont 98 départements qui sont concernés par la sècheresse ; tout le pays est donc désormais touché par les risques d'incendie.

Alors que le Mali, le Burkina Faso et le Ghana renforcent leur contrôle sur leur secteur aurifère, les compagnies minières internationales réorientent leurs investissements vers des pays jugés plus prévisibles. La Côte d'Ivoire, la Guinée, mais aussi la Mauritanie et le Sénégal espèrent profiter de cette redistribution. La ruée vers l'or se poursuit en Afrique de l'Ouest. Les États multiplient les efforts pour attirer les investissements dans l'exploration et l'exploitation aurifères. Dans ce contexte, la Côte d'Ivoire et la Guinée apparaissent aujourd'hui comme les destinations les plus attractives pour les groupes miniers, profitant notamment des hésitations des investisseurs à développer de nouveaux projets au Mali, au Burkina Faso ou au Ghana. En Côte d'Ivoire, le gigantesque projet Koné entrera en production avant la fin de l'année, avec plusieurs mois d'avance sur le calendrier initial. Située près de la frontière malienne, cette future mine continue de gagner en importance : ses ressources sont désormais estimées à plus de 6,3 millions d'onces d'or. À lire aussiMontage Gold: la success story minière du moment en Côte d'Ivoire La société canadienne Montage Gold poursuit parallèlement ses investissements dans le pays, avec l'acquisition du projet Didievi auprès d'African Gold. « Un projet comme celui de Koné n'est possible aujourd'hui que grâce aux investissements que le pays a réalisés dans les infrastructures et l'énergie. Nous avons acheté un deuxième projet, celui d'African Gold à Didievi. C'est un projet très prometteur. Cela montre notre volonté de continuer à accroître notre présence en Côte d'Ivoire grâce au potentiel géologique et à la stabilité économique du pays », explique Martino De Ciccio, PDG de Montage Gold. Des investisseurs en quête de stabilité La Côte d'Ivoire et la Guinée profitent d'un contexte régional marqué par la prudence des grands groupes miniers. Au Mali, au Burkina Faso et au Ghana, les gouvernements ont engagé une reprise en main de leur secteur aurifère, en renforçant le contrôle public et en augmentant la part des revenus captée par l'État. À lire aussiLe Burkina Faso suspend l'exportation de la production artisanale d'or La Mauritanie entend également tirer parti de cette redistribution des investissements. Le pays met en avant un important potentiel géologique et un cadre réglementaire jugé rassurant. « La Mauritanie dispose d'un bon potentiel parce qu'elle possède encore de vastes zones qui n'ont pas été explorées. Beaucoup de sociétés vont aujourd'hui en Côte d'Ivoire, mais aussi en Mauritanie. Nous avons de nombreux permis qui viennent d'être libérés. Notre force, c'est bien sûr la géologie, mais aussi le cadre légal et réglementaire. Les conditions sont très claires, les accords sont respectés et les investisseurs bénéficient d'une véritable visibilité sur leurs projets miniers », souligne Ahmed Taleb Mohamed, conseiller au ministère mauritanien des Mines. Le Sénégal souhaite lui aussi développer davantage son industrie aurifère. Trois mines industrielles sont déjà en activité dans la région de Kédougou, exploitées notamment par Endeavour Mining et Resolute Mining. Mais les audits lancés par le nouveau gouvernement sur plusieurs contrats miniers suscitent des interrogations chez certains investisseurs. « Les investisseurs aiment la stabilité. Si à chaque changement de gouvernement certaines conventions ou certains contrats sont remis en question, cela peut poser un problème pour les futurs investisseurs. Un projet minier repose sur un modèle économique construit sur plusieurs années. Les investisseurs ont besoin de stabilité. Je pense que les autorités l'ont compris et que c'est ce qui permettra d'attirer d'autres investisseurs. Car le potentiel est là, il est énorme », estime Ousmane Mbaye, président de la Chambre des mines du Sénégal. En 2025, le secteur minier représentait environ 4 % du PIB sénégalais et 31 % des exportations du pays. Avec une production de 10,4 tonnes d'or, le métal jaune constitue désormais la première ressource minière du Sénégal.

A discussion about and look into the stories, the history and personalities that came together to make the classic of industrial infotainment, "The Story of Petroleum" in 1923.

The Stillwater Mines have been abandoned for generations, left to rust above a body of water that never ripples unless something beneath it chooses to move. You came looking for a story. A rumor. Proof that something still lives beneath the old processing levels. But the thing in the water was never only a monster. Long before the mines, she slept in the dark, ancient, silent, untouched. Then the miners broke through into her resting place, and everything they brought with them seeped into the depths: noise, fear, metal, memory, and the final peace of those who never surfaced again. Now she waits in the Stillwater Mines, carrying the last moments of everyone the mine has taken. She does not hunt. She does not chase. She simply remains. But remaining is not the same as mercy. Corra does not go looking for the surface world. She does not need to. Sooner or later, the surface always sends something curious down into the dark. And when you fall into her water, she discovers something impossible in you. Something that does not fade. Something that looks back. Something iridescent. And Corra has never wanted to keep anything before. #F4A #AudioRoleplay #MonsterGirl #TentacleMonster #AncientWaterCreature #Horror #DarkFantasy #UrbExGoneWrong #UnderwaterHorror #AbandonedMine #BinauralAudio #Possessive #3Dio #CuriousMonster #Eldritch #Uncanny #DangerousComfort #SoftHorror #YoureMine #CreatureRomance #SlowBurn #MonsterIntimacy #BreathplayThemes #OxygenControlThemes

Jason Jessup, CEO and Director of Magna Mining (TSX: NICU) (OTCQX: MGMNF), joins me for a review of Q2 operations at the McCreedy West Mine and the expedited development pathway for the Levack and Crean Hill mines located in Sudbury, Ontario. We also unpack the C$140 Million Strategic Investment by Alpayana, coming in as a new 19.9% stakeholder.     Q2 Operational Highlights: As of June 26, 2026, McCreedy West had shipped 91,724 tons of ore from the 700 Copper Zone to Vale Base Metals' Clarabelle mill in Sudbury, with four days remaining in the second quarter. This surpasses the 84,953 tons of ore produced in the fourth quarter of 2025 and represents a new quarterly record for McCreedy West under Magna ownership. The average grade of the 66,445 tons of ore shipped during April and May is 3.55% copper equivalent (“CuEq”), based on the commodity prices assumed in the Company's 2026 production and cost guidance. Final assays are pending for ore shipped in June but average grades for Q2 are anticipated to be near the upper end of the full year guidance range. Underground development at McCreedy West during the quarter is anticipated to exceed 2,350 feet, also a record under Magna ownership. McCreedy West has achieved a Total Reportable Injury Frequency Rate (“TRIFR”) of 0.0.   Numerous pieces of well-maintained underground equipment have been acquired from a nearby Sudbury operation that is moving into a state of closure for a total price of less than $1 million, well below market rates for equivalent used or new equipment. This equipment will be repurposed for use at the Company's Levack Mine and to support other Magna projects in the Sudbury Basin with potential savings expected to be in the range of $9-12 million.     On July 6, 2026, the Company announced a non-brokered private placement financing with Alpayana S.A.C. to purchase 62,222,222 common shares of the Company at a price of C$2.25 per Share for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately C$140,000,000. At closing of the Offering, Alpayana is expected to hold approximately 19.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of Magna.  Jason unpacked how the transaction came together, the shared values and business approaches between the 2 companies, and how this capital accelerates a dual-track development of both Levack and Crean Hill into commercial production by 2028.   The Company is planning to release a Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) for the Levack Mine in parallel with work to re-establish ore and waste hoisting capabilities during Q3.  At present those economics will not include the high-grade drilling completed to date at the R2 Footwall Zone. We reviewed the continued high-grade drill results across copper, nickel, platinum, palladium, gold, and silver in more recent assays returned from the ongoing exploration and development work at the Levack Mine. Jason highlights that a development drift is being implemented to support ongoing underground exploration of this area, for the potential of future implementation into development plans.   Next we review the ongoing workstreams for Crean Hill that will be feeding into the upcoming PFS later this year.  He notes that the significantly higher precious metals today compared to back in 2022 will be a factor that plays into the updated economics, and maps out that the ramp up into production could commence as early as H2 2027.   We wrap up discussing that the prior-producing Poldosky Mine and the development-stage Shakespeare Project are still both permitted assets of merit and will feed the development cue as mines number 4 and 5 further down the road.      Click here to follow along with the news at Magna Mining   If you have questions for Jason regarding Magna Mining, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Magna Mining at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.         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.

Oil market expert Rory Johnston provides a comprehensive analysis of the current global energy landscape and recent supply disruptions. He examines the Strait of Hormuz crisis, the impact of Ukrainian drone strikes on Russian refineries, and the surprising resilience of the market due to China’s massive reduction in crude imports. The discussion explores potential geopolitical shifts, such as the UAE's departure from OPEC and Iran's attempts to control vital shipping lanes. Ultimately, Johnston highlights a transition toward a more interventionist era where nations must prioritize energy sovereignty and infrastructure diversification to survive future shocks.

Alright guys, this week we're kicking it off with Tate Bradfield, founder of Process Based Hunter. Tate's got one of the more interesting backstories I've heard on this show — went from working in a mine, to door-to-door sales, to guiding elk for other outfitters, to eventually running his own semi-guided elk hunting courses where he takes 150-180 people a year and actually teaches them how to hunt instead of just pointing at a bull and telling them to shoot. We riff on a ton of stuff in this one — his "at-bats" philosophy for picking a guided hunt (spoiler: stop asking how big the bulls are and start asking how many encounters per day you'll get), why he thinks cow calling during rifle season is one of the most underused tactics out there, how he snuck within 60 yards of a 200-inch mule deer with a cow elk decoy and no rifle in hand, and why most guys pack way too much gear and focus on the wrong stuff before a hunt. If you've ever thought about leveling up your elk hunting instead of just white-knuckling your way through another season, this episode's for you. Tate's semi-guided archery course still has a few spots open for 2026, and rifle spots are open for 2027 — head to processbasedhunter.com or check him out on Instagram @processbasedhunter.

Are Michigan and Huron separate lakes – or have we been counting the Great Lakes wrong? There may actually be four Great Lakes: “Lake” Huron and “Lake” Michigan could actually be considered “lobes” of one big lake — big enough to unseat Lake Superior as the world’s largest freshwater lake by surface area. We hear two takes: one from a scientific perspective, and one from a cultural perspective. GUESTS: Eric Anderson, director of hydrologic science and engineering at the Colorado School of Mines.

Interview with Colin Joudrie, President and CEO, Selkirk Copper Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/selkirk-copper-tsxvscmi-high-grade-yukon-copper-restart-targets-mid-2028-production-10230Recording date: 1st July 2026Selkirk Copper Mines Inc. is advancing the restart of a previously producing copper-gold-silver operation, targeting first production by mid-2028. Positioned as a “restart story,” the project benefits from existing infrastructure, including a processing mill, camp facilities, and established site systems, significantly reducing the capital intensity and technical risks typically associated with new mine development. The company is focusing on incremental upgrades rather than rebuilding core infrastructure, while leveraging a substantial historical database to streamline engineering and planning.Initial drilling results have reinforced confidence in the asset. A 175-hole Phase 1 program intersected economic-grade mineralisation in 87% of holes and identified two new mineral lenses near existing workings. These findings support the company's broader strategy to develop an integrated mining operation combining open-pit and underground sources, with a roughly equal contribution in the early years and a gradual shift toward underground production over a projected 12-to-15-year mine life.Selkirk is now progressing a 50,000-metre Phase 2 drill campaign focused on upgrading resources and advancing geotechnical studies. The program is ahead of schedule and will inform a feasibility study expected to begin in late 2026 and conclude by mid-2027. Updated economic and resource estimates are anticipated in July 2026.Production planning targets approximately 30,000 tonnes of copper-equivalent output annually, supported by by-product gold and silver credits. To fund development, the company is pursuing non-dilutive options such as offtake agreements, project financing, and a potential silver stream, while avoiding the over-leveraging and permitting missteps that affected the previous operator.With strong drilling results, existing infrastructure, and favorable metal price conditions, Selkirk aims to position the project as a lower-risk path to near-term copper production.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/selkirk-copperSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

When Julius Caesar conquered Gaul he boasted that he killed a million Gauls and enslaved a million more. This is the truth about the Roman empire: Rome could not function without slavery as it underpinned every single part of their economy. Without the millions of people snatched from their homes in the aftermath of war, kidnapped from the streets, sold into slavery as punishment, or born into it as “home bred slaves”, the Roman empire’s great aqueducts and temples could never have been built. There would be no coins or tiles to find in fields, no limitless manpower for the army and navy that conquered the Mediterranean, no marble palaces or underfloor heating, and certainly no life of unimaginable luxury for the top of Roman society. Slavery in Rome could be very good or bad depending on the job. Highly educated Greek slaves served as physicians, accountants, architects, and tutors for aristocratic sons and daughters. At the bottom of the hierarchy were sulfur mine workers, who worked in toxic, collapsing tunnels and were often blinded by their masters to remind them they would be there for the rest of their short miserable lives. Today's guest is Emma Southon, author of Not Built in a Day: How Slavery Made the Roman Empire. We discuss how Rome evolved from a sanctuary for men fleeing slavery into the most extensive chattel slave system in history, and how Spartacus horrified Rome not by winning battles but by forcing 300 Roman prisoners to fight as gladiators at his co-commander's funeral. We also look at why there was never a Roman abolition movement because Romans understood that slavery destroyed people but concluded this was the slaves' problem, not theirs.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tina Kieffer était rédactrice en chef de Marie Claire quand elle part au Cambodge en 2005, presque par hasard. Elle en revient avec une fille adoptée, Chandara, et une conviction : construire une école pour les filles des bidonvilles de Phnom Penh.Vingt ans plus tard, Happy Chandara scolarise 1 700 jeunes filles, emploie 365 personnes, et figure parmi les 50 meilleures écoles du monde. 100% de réussite au bac. Des anciennes élèves à l'École des Mines, en médecine, en droit. Et soixante d'entre elles travaillent aujourd'hui au sein de l'école qui les a sauvées en tant que prof, responsable informatique, ou encore à la com. Des femmes qui, sans Happy Chandara, n'auraient peut-être jamais appris à lire.Dans cet épisode, Tina nous raconte tout. La rencontre avec Chandara dans un orphelinat de Phnom Penh. Le retour en France avec une enfant sans papiers. Les deux ans de bataille acharnée pour l'adopter. Elle nous parle du Cambodge qu'elle a appris à aimer profondément, de cette double vie entre Paris et Phnom Penh, de ce basculement intérieur, le moment où l'on cesse d'être témoin pour devenir acteur. Et de ce que ça change, pour une petite fille adoptée, de savoir que son histoire en a sauvé des centaines d'autres.C'est un épisode qui ne ressemble à aucun autre. Une histoire de voyage qui est aussi une histoire de vie, de courage et de transmission.

For almost two years, the war on the Continent had been raging. The Battle of Verdun has already happened, but the real bloodshed had not even started yet, with the Battle of the Somme only a month away.While the European land armies have been fighting on a scale not seen since Napoleon a century earlier, major conflicts at sea were rare in spite of the major belligerents having great and powerful fleets. Like two heavyweight boxers wary of each other, the surface fleets of the Royal Navy and the Kaiserliche Marine stared at each other across the North Sea, throwing a jab here or there, but not committing for a hard fight.Then, in the early morning hours of May 31st, Vice Admiral Franz von Hipper's I Scouting Group got underway from the Jade estuary and headed north.This episode, we are going to look back at the Battle of Jutland with Simon Harley, naval historian, Associate Fellow of the Royal Historical Society, and co-editor of The Dreadnought Project online resource.

This Southern Mysteries Classic revisits a chilling historical true crime case from the Kentucky mountains. In February 1933, a church service ended with the death of 72-year-old Lucinda Mills. Nine of her relatives were jailed and accused of murder, while the national press labeled the case a human sacrifice. Decades later, the question remains: what really happened inside that cabin?
