With President Trump's moves to take control of Venezuela's oil production—including the seizure of incoming and outgoing oil tankers—there's been a lot of talk about the country's deep reserves of crude. But not all oil is the same, and getting the Venezuelan reserves out of the ground might be neither cheap nor simple. So who wants that oil, and what is it good for?Petroleum engineer Jennifer Miskimins joins Host Ira Flatow to drill into the ABCs of oil production and refining.Guest: Dr. Jennifer Miskimins is 2026 president of the Society of Petroleum Engineers, and head of the petroleum engineering department at the Colorado School of Mines in Golden, Colorado.Transcripts for each episode are available within 1-3 days at sciencefriday.com.

Episode #466: Jonathan Moss, a Free Burma Rangers (FBR) volunteer and former U.S. Explosive Ordnance Disposal officer, speaks on the topic of landmines. He notes that the Burma Army routinely employs these devices around military camps, along roads and trails, and in villages. After the military takes a village, often accompanied by widespread looting and arson, it routinely seeds the ground with landmines near homes, places of worship and transit routes. Displaced villagers returning home face a stark choice: conduct ad hoc demining now or live with constant danger.“Mines are being laid, not only for defense, but to target civilians,” Moss says. “IDP routes, food paths, water access points – they're increasingly contaminated.” Mines have been found at church entrances and home doorways, deliberately targeting civilians, in violation of international humanitarian law.More than 1,600 mine and UXO casualties were recorded in Myanmar in 2024 – the worst in the world for the second year running. Beyond deaths and injuries, contamination creates fear and economic hardship for communities.“Demining, it's already happening with or without international support,” Moss says. “People just really can't wait. They're clearing paths to farms, water sources, medical clinics and schools out of necessity.”In partnership with communities, FBR is working to establish an Explosive Hazard Mitigation Center that would support existing efforts and upholding International Mine Action Standards as much as possible. In the midst of the uncertain conflict and a shortfall of international support at the local level, demining efforts face considerable challenges but also solutions that are in sight.
Allen covers the Trump administration’s suspension of five East Coast offshore wind leases on national security grounds, and the wave of lawsuits from developers like Equinor and Ørsted calling the reasoning pretextual.

Thousands of workers. All waiting. President Trump has made no secret of his feelings about wind power. He has called offshore wind a scam. He has said these projects cost too much. He has compared them unfavorably to natural gas. Big ugly windmills, he calls them. His administration has moved aggressively to stop them. First came executive orders suspending federal approvals. Then stop-work orders on projects already under construction. In December, the Bureau of Ocean Energy Management took the boldest step yet. It suspended the federal leases for five East Coast projects. The reason given: national security risks identified by the Department of War in recently classified reports. Interior Secretary Doug Burgum explained that wind turbine blade movement can interfere with radar systems. He pointed to vulnerabilities created by large-scale projects near population centers. The companies building these projects see it differently. Empire Wind called the reasoning hollow and pretextual. In court filings, the company pointed to statements from the Secretary of Interior and the White House. The real motivation, they argued, relates to the administration’s opposition to offshore wind energy. Not national security. Politics. These are not small projects. Empire Wind is sixty percent complete. Four billion dollars invested. Nearly four thousand workers employed during construction. When finished, it would power half a million New York homes. Its parent company, Norwegian energy giant Equinor, says it has coordinated closely with federal officials on national security reviews since twenty-seventeen. It has complied with every requirement. Revolution Wind is eighty-seven percent finished. A five billion dollar venture between Danish company Ørsted and Global Infrastructure Partners. The project went through more than nine years of federal review before approval in twenty-twenty-three. National security considerations were comprehensively addressed, the company says. Workers sat waiting on the water when construction was halted in August. A federal judge allowed them to resume in September. Now they’re stopped again. Both companies warn that the ninety-day suspension will likely result in cancellation. Offshore wind construction depends on highly choreographed specialized vessels. Complex sequencing. Narrow weather windows. You cannot simply pause and restart. Dominion Energy has also filed suit over its Coastal Virginia Offshore Wind project. The company calls the suspension arbitrary and capricious. The legal battles are piling up. In December, a federal judge in Massachusetts declared an earlier stop-work order illegal. Seventeen states had sued. New York Attorney General Letitia James led the coalition. As New Yorkers face rising energy costs, she said, we need more energy sources, not fewer. Wind energy is good for our environment, our economy, and our communities. She called the administration’s actions a reckless and unlawful crusade against clean energy. Four East Coast governors issued a joint statement. New York’s Kathy Hochul. Massachusetts’ Maura Healey. Connecticut’s Ned Lamont. Rhode Island’s Daniel McKee. Coastal states are working hard to build more energy, they said. These projects have created thousands of jobs. They have injected billions in economic activity into our communities. The National Ocean Industries Association is calling for an end to the pause. Offshore wind improves national security, says president Erik Milito. It shifts economic, infrastructure, and geopolitical advantages to the United States. The Interior Department has declined to comment on the lawsuits. Meanwhile, at CES twenty-twenty-six in Las Vegas, a different kind of wind power is making news. A startup called Airloom is showcasing a radical new turbine design. Backed by Bill Gates. No towering blades reaching for the sky. Instead, a low-profile system about sixty-six to ninety-eight feet high. Picture a loop of adjustable wings traveling along a track. More roller coaster than windmill. The company claims forty percent less material. Forty-seven percent lower cost. Eighty-five percent faster deployment. They say projects can be built in under a year instead of five. And unlike traditional turbines, these can go places conventional wind farms cannot. Remote islands. Mountainous terrain. Near airports. Even military bases. Places where spinning blades would be impractical. The company broke ground on a pilot site last June. Commercial demonstrations are planned for twenty-twenty-seven. Down in Brazil, the government is tackling a different wind energy challenge. What happens when you generate more power than the grid can handle? Brazil’s Ministry of Mines and Energy has opened a public consultation. The question: how should wind and solar generators be compensated when their output gets curtailed? The government wants to balance legal certainty for investors against excessive costs for electricity consumers. Stakeholders have until January sixteenth to weigh in. So there you have it. The near future of US offshore wind will be decided in court rooms over the next few weeks. The curtailment of Brazilian renewables will be bandied about in January. And a Bill Gates supported wind company is going to try it’s hand at power remote locations. I hope you had new year’s celebration. 2026 is going to be an interesting ride. And that’s the wind energy news for the 5th of January, 2026. Join us tomorrow for the Uptime Wind Energy Podcast
From pharaohs' tombs in Ancient Egypt and medieval currency, to priceless royal jewellery and Spandau Ballet songs - gold has been prized for millennia. But it's only really in the last century or so that we've started uncovering its usefulness in less decorative applications.Today, gold is used in masses of electricals; it's also revolutionised part of the manufacturing sector by stopping a dangerous reliance on mercury as a catalyst; and it's vital to space missions. Although there are also some more frivolous modern uses for gold, as Hannah and Dara discover. (Gold-leaf in your cocktail, anyone?)Challenged to find out whether all the world's mined gold would really fit in an Olympic swimming pool, our science-savvy duo discover that this antisocial element might just be the best darn thing on the periodic table...

In the summer of 1924, a railroad worker was found dead near tracks in Little Rock. Weeks later, his wife was found dead in another state. What followed was a series of headlines that pointed to one woman—Winona Spriggs. Her name would appear again and again over the next fifty years, linked to crime, escape, and murder. This is the story of a family broken, and of the woman who never stopped running. Join the Community on Patreon Want more Southern Mysteries?

Terry Lynch, CEO of Power Metallic Mines (TSX.V: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) (Frankfurt: IVV), joins me for a comprehensive exploration update from their fully funded 100,000-meter drill program at the polymetallic NISK Project in Quebec. We discuss recent drill results from a deep hole at the Lion Zone, pending results still at the assay lab, but also look ahead to 4 key exploration targets of interest for early 2026 drilling. Key Highlights from the Interview: Exploration Strategy: A six-rig program focused on expanding the mineralized around the Lion Zone and at depth in the “elephant zone,” and also at Lion West, at the Tiger Deep Zone, and new polymetallic targets from surveys at the Hydro Fold-Hinge Zone. Additionally the team is still drilling to connect the 5.5km corridor and “Gap Area” between Lion and NISK Main. There are still about 15,000-20,000 meters of core being processed at the lab that should be back by late January, and then 65,000 additional meters that will be drilled throughout 2026. 40 Meters of 12.18% Cu (14.34% CuEqRec) included within 20.40 meters of 2.91% Cu (3.58% CuEqRec) in Hole 25-029b at Lion, and Completes the Extension of PN-24-064 “elephant hole” to define large BoreHole EM anomaly at depth. Terry points out that the exploration team is more animated by the follow up hole here after collecting more electro-magnet information from this most recent hole. Resource Growth Path: Early-stage modeling efforts are enabling analysts and investors to build their own interpretations of scale, while metallurgical studies are underway with results set to release in early Q1 to confirm high recovery rates. Acquisition of Li-FT Power land: Back on July 14, 2025 the Company announced that it closed a definitive agreement dated June 9, 2025 to acquire a 100% interest in 313 mineral claims totalling 167 km² from Li-FT Power Ltd. (TSXV: LIFT) (OTCQX: LIFFF). The claims adjoin the Company's 45.86km² Nisk property, where exploration is expanding the high–grade Lion Cu–PGE discovery and the Nisk Copper-Nickel-Platinum-Palladium-Gold-Cobalt deposit. Terry explains how there are 8 very high priority drill targets that the exploration team is following up on across this newly acquired land. Phase 1 Metallurgical Testing of Lion Deposit: On Oct. 16th, Power Metallic announced that preliminary metallurgical studies are underway being performed by SGS Canada Ltd at its laboratories based in Quebec City, QC, and Lakefield, ON. Work to date has shown that the copper mineralization is contained within coarse grained chalcopyrite and cubanite, both which should respond well to conventional sulphide concentration methods. Overall, the character of the mineralization suggests good recoveries of copper sulphides, and these initial metallurgical tests will determine the recovery potential of the PGEs, Au, Ag, and Ni., which are expected to report within a conventional sulphide concentrate.

Green colonialism has significantly affected the Indigenous Sámi people of northern Europe by placing large-scale renewable energy and conservation projects on their ancestral lands without full consent. Developments such as wind farms, mining for “green” minerals, hydroelectric dams, and protected areas often disrupt traditional livelihoods like reindeer herding, which depend on intact migration routes and ecosystems. While framed as environmentally sustainable, these projects can continue patterns of land dispossession and marginalization, sidelining Sámi knowledge, rights, and self-determination in the name of climate action. Journalists Tristen Taylor, Ingrid Gercama and Nathalie Bertrams for their investigation “Green Colonialism: How New Mines in Sweden Threaten the Saami.

Winter Combat at Geilenkirchen: Mud, Mines, and Psychological Toll — James Holland — Following the failed Market Garden airborne operation, Holland describes the Sherwood Rangers' grueling winter battle at Geilenkirchensupporting the inexperienced U.S. 84th Division in harsh operational conditions. Holland emphasizes the brutal physical environment wherein mud and saturated terrain severely limited tank maneuverability and operational effectiveness, while psychological stress accumulated among commanders like John Semken, who survived multiple mine explosions and witnessed repeated traumatic losses. Holland documents the compounding physical and psychological exhaustion characterizing winter combat operations and the systematic attrition afflicting both personnel and equipment.
After a quick flashback to Frodo murdering Grungus Took, the Fellowgroup settled into their camp on the road the Moria. Del slept off her navigation whiskey, Denethea expressed a romantic interest in Del, and Tyler confronted Denethea. The Gondorian confessed she was frustrated that she'd be good ruler if not for her illegitimate birth, so Tyler made a deal that if she helped the Fellowgroup and proved to be a good person, he'd marry her and let her rule. Furthermore, Guy reported that she hadn't done anything suspicious during her watch. Will the Fellowgroup's burgeoning sense of unity get them through the Mines of Moria alive?Featuring players Tyler Hewitt, Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, and Adam McNamara, and Dungeon Master Tom McGee.Jesters of Middle-earth streams live every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/dumbdumbdice)Enjoying Jesters of Middle-earth? - Consider supporting the show for as little as $1 a month to get BTS fun, an ad-free feed, and even add your own character to the podcast!

The Fellowgroup of the Ring left Rivendell and set off towards the Mines of Moria. They took stock of their burgeoning abilities and new weapons: Tyler's ranger skills and reforged sword; Guy's keen elf eyes and shiny mithril vest; Adam's Wario-style everything; and Del's uncanny ability to navigate while drunk. On the way, Tyler noticed Denethea staying uncomfortably close to him, so Del pretended to need the help of a strong woman and pulled the Gondorian's focus, and Adam tried to hunt, but the thought of it brought back memories of how Tony Dumdum died. Is anyone ever going to notice the slinking figure of Frodo Baggins dogging their every step?***Guy's character played by Tom this episode while he's out sick***Featuring players Tyler Hewitt, Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, and Adam McNamara, and Dungeon Master Tom McGee.Jesters of Middle-earth streams live every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/dumbdumbdice)Enjoying Jesters of Middle-earth?- Consider supporting the show for as little as $1 a month to get BTS fun, an ad-free feed, and even add your own character to the podcast!

The Fellowgroup met to discuss their upcoming journey to Mordor. Gandalf brought out The Fellowship of the Ring on DVD, complete with a hand-written note from Peter Jackson to one of the film's actors, and the troupe decided to explain away the synopsis as an alternate path that their journey could take. As they made their final preparations, Adam made an enemy of Glorfindel, Guy was disappointed to find Arwen only to learn she was looking for Tyler, and Arwen gave Tyler his sword, reforged, as a parting gift. They finally departed from Rivendell, but will everyone in the Fellowgroup make it through the Mines of Moria alive?Featuring players Tyler Hewitt, Del Borovic, Guy Bradford, and Adam McNamara, and Dungeon Master Tom McGee.Jesters of Middle-earth streams live every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET on Twitch (https://www.twitch.tv/dumbdumbdice)Enjoying Jesters of Middle-earth? - Consider supporting the show for as little as $1 a month to get BTS fun, an ad-free feed, and even add your own character to the podcast!

Interview with Pascal Hamelin, President & CEO of Abcourt Mines Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/abcourt-mines-tsxvabi-new-quebec-producer-positioned-for-growth-cash-flow-buybacks-8051Recording date: 3rd December 2025Abcourt Mines (TSXV:ABI) has successfully transitioned from exploration to production at its Sleeping Giant mine in Quebec, representing an increasingly rare case study in debt-financed mine development that avoids the severe shareholder dilution typical of traditional equity-financed builds. The company secured $12 million in financing from Nebari—including C$8 million initial tranche, $2 million follow-on, and $2 million used to buy down the Triple Flag NSR royalty from 2% to 1.5%—and commenced gold production.October 2025 production reached 475 ounces whilst operating at conservative staffing levels and building mill circuit inventory. Management projects cash flow positivity by Q2 2026 at approximately 700 ounces monthly production, with current monthly burn rate below $1 million. The Nebari credit facility includes a two-year interest-only period until July 2027, providing critical runway to demonstrate operational consistency and build cash reserves before principal repayments commence.The operational leverage inherent in Abcourt's asset base is substantial. The company operates an 800-tonne-per-day mill (permitted for 950 tonnes per day) currently running at less than 45% capacity. Management targets 350 tonnes per day by autumn 2025, with the mill processing all current mine production in approximately eight hours on day shift only. Plans include expanding to two shifts in early 2026 and eventually four shifts as production scales, providing a clear pathway to meaningful production growth without major capital investment.The constraint on production growth is labour availability rather than geological or metallurgical factors. CEO Pascal Hamelin explicitly stated: "It's not the feed, it's the people, that's the problem you're trying to solve for." The company has invested in infrastructure to address recruitment challenges, including a sleep camp commissioned in September 2024 with Phase Two expansion pending permit approval.The current mine plan supports seven years producing 25,000–33,000 ounces annually, with variation driven by grade. Management's strategic priority centres on extending mine life to 10+ years through three underground drill rigs at Sleeping Giant, then increasing mining fronts to utilise full mill capacity. This narrow-vein, high-grade mining approach—room-and-pillar methods targeting veins 30 centimetres to one metre wide—inherently limits tonnes but maximises grade, with underground samples showing visible gold exceeding 300 g/t.The Flordin discovery adds significant exploration upside. Systematic work exposed 300 metres of strike length grading 5 g/t gold over 15–20 metres width at surface, located 138 kilometres from existing mill infrastructure within a potential two-kilometre mineralised corridor. Abcourt has planned 20,000 metres of drilling for 2026—winter programmes targeting the eastern extension towards Agnico Eagle's adjacent property boundary, spring/summer/autumn programmes targeting northwestern extensions—entirely funded from operating cash flow.Management and directors hold approximately 30% ownership, having consistently supported development through equity investments. Shareholders have expressed preference for share buybacks over dividends once balance sheet permits, with capital allocation decisions driven by financial strength rather than arbitrary timelines.Sustained gold prices above US$4,000 per ounce have fundamentally improved narrow-vein deposit economics. Every US$100 increase translates to approximately US$2.5–3.3 million in additional annual revenue at current production guidance. The investment case depends on execution during the 18-month ramp-up period, successful miner recruitment, and drilling success at both assets to extend mine life and confirm district-scale potential at Flordin.View Abcourt Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/abcourt-mines-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

America's about to make a big bet on critical minerals and rare earths. In case you missed it, the DOE just reorganized and announced a major initiative around the refining of this critical element in our energy and defense future. Why? Because the energy and defense sectors are dangerously dependent on China's refining power; but, what if we could change that without opening a single new mine? We recently covered a company that's rethinking rare earth and critical mineral supply chains from the ground up. Mark LaVerghetta, VP at ReElement Technologies, explained that their secret weapon is a closed-loop chromatography-based refining system that can extract and purify vital materials from recycled batteries, magnets, and even coal waste, all on U.S. soil. Mark shares how the leadership team pivoted from distressed coal assets to inventing a modular, small-footprint solution that could rewrite the rules of critical mineral processing and eliminate America's reliance on toxic, capital-intensive Chinese methods and imports. It can also liberate us from the supply constraints imposed by the ever-growing trade war between the two countries for materials that are critical path to our clean energy future.Expect to learn:

In 1984, three scientists dared to probe the mystery of life's origin by putting the prevailing theories of prebiotic and chemical evolution to the test. One of those men was engineer Walter Bradley. Today, Dr. Robert J. Marks joins host Andrew McDiarmid to share some of his personal anecdotes and professional insights about Dr. Bradley, a scientist, humanitarian, and trailblazer in the world of intelligent design who passed away this summer at the age of 81. A Distinguished Fellow of the Discovery Institute, Bradley taught mechanical engineering at Texas A&M University, Baylor University, and the Colorado School of Mines. His book, co-authored with chemist Charles Thaxton and geochemist Roger Olsen, deeply influenced prominent figures in the intelligent design research community like Stephen Meyer, Douglas Axe, and Jay Richards and helped to catalyze a new generation of inquiry into life's beginnings. The Mystery of Life's Origin was re-released in 2020 as a new, expanded second edition. Source
