Helix Exploration CEO Bo Sears on multi-well helium ambitions, summer production

Helix Exploration PLC CEO Bo Sears talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's development progress at its Rudyard project in Montana. Sears said the company is “progressing nicely” with the Linda #1 well and is on track to begin producing helium by the end of summer. He pointed to strong early results from both Darwin #1 and the acquisition of the Weil #1 well, expressing optimism about long-term production capacity. He described Rudyard as “quite large relative to our peers,” adding that it may support up to 20 wells—substantially more than originally anticipated. This scale opens the potential for on-site helium liquefaction, with HeLIX already acquiring 20 acres in preparation. Sears referenced a 1977 US Bureau of Mines study that estimated the field's potential at 2.60 billion cubic feet of helium. With new drilling data, including from Linda #1 and re-perforated Weil #1, the company expects to significantly update resource estimates. The company anticipates up to 4 billion cubic feet of recoverable helium, which Sears noted could make Helix one of the largest helium producers in the US. Sears also confirmed ongoing discussions with off-takers and potential interest in geological hydrogen from deeper zones. Visit Proactive's YouTube channel for more interviews.

In 1942, the state of Louisiana executed a woman in the electric chair for the first and only time in its history. She was young, beautiful, and utterly devoted to the man she loved, a Texas outlaw. Toni Jo Henry was willing to do anything to free him from prison which led her down a dark path…the cold-blooded killing of an innocent man. Toni Jo claimed her accomplice pulled the trigger. He said she did. Was Toni Jo Henry a ruthless killer, or a woman trapped by her tragic past and her devotion to the wrong man?  Want more Southern Mysteries?  Hear the Southern Mysteries show archive of 60+ episodes along with Patron exclusive podcast, Audacious: Tales of American Crime and more when you become a patron of the show.

Welcome to Botched: A D&D Podcast! We begin our story, as we often do, in a small town. Turns out, small towns are the easiest place for odd stuff to happen without drawing too much attention. Well, in this case, it's not exactly a small town. It's a little mining community in the middle of snow stricken lands. As we all know, the children yearn for the mines. One of these miners is about 12, but fret not, he's been doing this job for about 6 or 7 years now, so he's very experienced. He's got the black lung of a much older man.However, the machinery malfunctions, causing a small explosion. While there are only minor injuries, it is quickly apparent that the miners have been stricken with some sort of illness. Seems like just a normal case of the flu…until all the bleeding, and pulsating pustules. Why is there a child in this mine? What is this mysterious illness? What does it do to the body?

Après trois ans de guerre suite à l'invasion de la Russie, l'Ukraine est aujourd'hui l'un des pays les plus contaminés par les mines au monde, avec un tiers de son territoire potentiellement contaminé.Le gouvernement ukrainien s'est fixé comme priorité de déminer 80% de son territoire d'ici dix ans et s'est doté d'une stratégie avec trois grandes priorités concrètes, qu'appuie le Programme des Nations Unies pour le développement activement.Au-delà de la sensibilisation et de l'appui à la population ou du développement des capacités de déminage national, l'une des priorités de l'Ukraine est de rendre les terres agricoles contaminées à nouveau productives. Considérée comme le grenier de la planète avant l'invasion russe de 2022, l'Ukraine exportait son blé dans 57 pays, notamment du Sud, sachant qu'un navire de 50.000 tonnes de blé peut nourrir la Somalie pendant un mois.Dans cet entretien avec Nathalie Minard de la télévision de l'ONU à Genève, la Coordonnatrice des activités de déminage humanitaire en Ukraine pour le PNUD, Marie Dahan revient sur les priorités de l'Ukraine. Elle évoque également la décision des États limitrophes de la Russie de se retirer du traité d'Ottawa sur l'interdiction des mines et  l'évolution du déminage humanitaire. (Interview : Marie Dahan, Coordinatrice de l'action contre les mines en Ukraine, dans le cadre du système de coordination humanitaire des Nations Unies, sous le Cluster Protection – PNUD ; propos recueillis par Nathalie Minard, UNTV Genève)

Simandou: miracle ou mirage pour l'économie guinéenne?

L'exploitation des immenses réserves de fer des monts du Simandou pourrait marquer un tournant décisif pour l'économie guinéenne. Estimées à près de 8 milliards de tonnes de minerai, ces réserves font l'objet de discussions depuis trois décennies. Les autorités prévoient une entrée en production pour la fin de l'année 2025, présentant ce projet comme la vitrine de leur ambition économique. Face au manque de transparence, la population guinéenne, qui a connu les désillusions de l'exploitation de bauxite, oscille entre espoir et scepticisme. Sur le chantier du chemin de fer, la poussière et les boues envahissent les champs, rendant impossible toute culture. Mamoudou Youla, habitant du village de Sounganyia marche sur la terre craquelée qui a envahi sa rizière. « Tout ça, là, c'est le lieu de travail. Depuis que les sociétés minières sont arrivées il y a cinq ans, on ne travaille pas ici, rien, tout est gâté. », se lamente-t-il. Les dédommagements promis par les miniers ne suffisent pas à compenser les pertes subies par les agriculteurs. Mamaseta Camara, une autre habitante, exprime son désenchantement face aux promesses non tenues. « Quand les entreprises sont arrivées ici, j'étais contente, je me suis dit que c'était une opportunité pour nous. Mais ça ne s'est pas passé comme prévu. On subit de nombreux impacts. » Tout se fissure. Les murs des maisons, comme la confiance des habitants envers les sociétés.Il n'y aurait pas eu assez d'emploi pour les jeunes de Soungayah. La corruption autour du chantier est un autre sujet de préoccupation. « Quand vous allez sur le chantier pour du travail, il y a des intermédiaires qui vous demandent de l'argent. Environ 1 million et demi de francs guinéens », témoigne anonymement ce jeune homme. Il a le verbe haut et une profonde colère en lui. « À Conakry, on dit que nous sommes les boss. Qu'il y a un grand projet chez nous, le grand port de la Guinée, et donc qu'on est les rois, mais les gens ne savent pas ce qui se passe réellement ici. Pas d'emploi, pas d'eau, pas d'hôpital. J'en veux aux autorités guinéennes. Parce que depuis que le projet a commencé ici, personne ne s'est déplacé pour voir ce que nous traversons ici. Ils s'en foutent de nous ». Plus de 33 000 emplois ont déjà été créés sur le corridor, avançait Mamadi Doumbouya, le président de la transition, lors de ses derniers vœux à la nation.Des retombées XXL espérées pour l'économie guinéenneInitié en 1997, le projet Simandou a connu de nombreux rebondissements. D'abord attribués à Rio Tinto, les blocs 1 et 2 ont ensuite été confiés à BSGR, avant d'être réattribués à Winning Consortium Simandou en 2019, un partenariat sino-singapourien avec une participation guinéenne. Après le coup d'État en 2021, les travaux ont été interrompus par la junte. Puis, le géant de l'acier Baowu Steel a investi 6 milliards de dollars dans le projet, renforçant l'engagement de la Chine. Les espoirs sont énormes. Les autorités guinéennes misent sur des retombées économiques annuelles de 600 à 700 millions de dollars via des taxes et redevances. « Les ressources générées par les mines du projet Simandou et la transformation locale des minerais par la construction des raffineries nous ouvrent des perspectives heureuses d'avenir. », se réjouissait Mamadi Doumbouya. La construction d'une aciérie permettrait également de transformer une partie du fer sur place.« Nous osons espérer que cela soit la bonne cette fois, explique l'économiste Mohammed Camara. Pour un projet minier, l'important, c'est qu'est-ce qu'on en tire comme fiscalité, quels sont les impôts et taxes que ce projet va payer à l'État ? Il faut voir le projet sur du long terme et s'assurer de l'utilisation efficace des ressources. Le peu que l'on gagne, il faut l'investir où on peut impacter le plus. »Le « pont vers la prospérité » vanté par les autorités guinéennes n'est pas garanti. « Les autorités comptent beaucoup sur le Simandou parce que c'est un projet qui va doubler le produit intérieur brut du pays, mais attention, il ne faut pas croire que cela va régler tous les problèmes d'un seul coup », poursuit Mohammed Camara.Des contrats miniers toujours secretsD'autant qu'un doute subsiste sur les retombées économiques réelles. Les contrats signés entre l'État et les sociétés minières n'ont en effet pas été publiés. Ces trois conventions minières, ferroviaires et portuaires finalisées en 2023 ne sont connues que de quelques-uns dans le pays. « On se demande bien qui les a vues, c'est l'omerta la plus totale », témoigne un ancien proche du ministère des Mines.La publication des contrats est obligatoire selon le code minier guinéen. Or, ces conventions validées par la Cour suprême adoptées par le CNT – l'Assemblée nationale guinéenne – en février 2024 sont introuvables. Manque de transparence flagrant pour certains acteurs de la société civile. Incompréhension pour Oumar Totiya Barry de l'Observatoire des mines et métaux : « Officiellement, le Premier ministre parle de contrat stratégique, donc de secret d'État. Le ministre des Mines évoque le fait que le processus de négociation n'est pas terminé. Mais on sait quand même que ces documents sont passés au niveau du CNT et donc, que le processus est à son terme. On ne comprend pas pourquoi la Guinée ne rend pas encore public ces contrats. Cela aiderait aujourd'hui à améliorer le niveau de compréhension. »À lire aussiGuinée: de Sekou Touré à Mamadi Doumbouya, l'incroyable histoire du gisement de fer de SimandouMême du côté des sociétés minières, on peine à comprendre ce manque de transparence. Mais le gouvernement reste droit dans ses bottes sur cette question. « Quand on négocie avec quelqu'un, il y a toujours des clauses de confidentialité, explique le ministre du plan Ismaël Nabé. Nous sommes en train de discuter avec les partenaires industriels et on publiera au temps opportun. On renégocie parce que la Guinée était perdante. Nous sommes avec des partenaires et on doit avoir un commun accord, et respecter ce que l'on s'est dit. Si on est d'accord, ça sera publié. »Les éléments juridiques des conventions signées ont déjà été publiés dans un numéro spécial du Journal officiel qui n'a pas été rendu public, mais que RFI a pu se procurer. Certains y voient la preuve que tout est déjà négocié et que les autorités n'ont pas envie de dévoiler des contrats qui seraient défavorables à la Guinée. Un des négociateurs nous informe que la plupart des contrats de revente par lesquels les clients achètent le minerai produit ne sont pas encore signés. Le prix de revente du fer de Simandou – élément clé pour le calcul des recettes de l'État – ne serait pas fixé. Djiba Diakité, le président du comité stratégique de Simandou, a récemment expliqué dans une interview à Forbes Afrique que « si on mettait bout à bout tous les documents contractuels de Simandou... ça ferait 14 kilomètres ».Un train pour le minerai et pour les passagers ?La Guinée veut croire à la renaissance de son réseau ferroviaire grâce au gigantesque projet minier. Le gisement de fer, l'un des plus riches au monde, doit être relié au port de Moribayah par une ligne de chemin de fer de 650 kilomètres. Une infrastructure qui cristallise les espoirs de désenclavement de la Haute et Moyenne-Guinée. Pensée comme une double voie, cette ligne doit permettre non seulement l'acheminement du minerai vers la côte, mais aussi, à terme, le transport de marchandises et de passagers. « Le chemin de fer est multi-utilisateur. Une partie va servir aux miniers, une autre aux marchandises, mais aussi aux personnes. L'objectif est de développer plus de 2 000 km de voie ferrée dans le pays », déclare Ismaël Nabé, ministre du Plan à RFI.Cette ambition de désenclaver les régions agricoles, comme la zone de Kankan ou de N'zérékoré, suscite l'enthousiasme. Certains imaginent déjà des trains chargés d'ignames ou de bananes rejoindre plus facilement les marchés urbains. Mais sur le terrain, les observateurs sont plus prudents. « L'idée d'un train passager est séduisante, mais peu réaliste dans l'état actuel du tracé », estime Oumar Totiya Barry, directeur de l'Observatoire des mines et métaux. Selon lui, la ligne évite les grands centres urbains. « Il y a bien une quinzaine de gares prévues, mais elles sont souvent à des dizaines de kilomètres des villes. Madina Oula, par exemple, se trouve à plus de 80 km de Kindia. Pour Mamou, c'est le même problème avec la gare de Farenta. » En cause, une logique de tracé prioritairement industrielle. Le chemin de fer suit le chemin le plus court et le moins coûteux entre la mine et le port, au détriment d'une intégration fine au territoire. « Le mariage entre aménagement du territoire et conception du chemin de fer n'a pas suffisamment fonctionné », regrette Oumar Totiya Barry.À Kaloum, cœur battant de Conakry, certains commerçants restent sceptiques. Marqués par les promesses non tenues des précédents projets miniers, ils redoutent que Simandou ne soit qu'un mirage de plus. Dans les zones d'exploitation de la bauxite, comme à Boké, l'exploitation a certes rapporté des devises, mais elle a aussi laissé des séquelles : pollution de l'air, raréfaction de l'eau potable, routes dégradées. « Simandou, c'est du vent », tranche un commerçant, dénonçant une richesse qui ne profite toujours pas à la population. En attendant, Simandou creuse son sillon, porté par de grandes ambitions.

These are the kinds of stories that often go untold—but deserve to be remembered.Key Takeaways:Her father was one of 10 children in a coal-mining family in Pittston, PA, and the only one to attend seminary.Despite growing up in humble beginnings, many of her uncles went on to college and professional careers, breaking generational cycles.Her mother's family hailed from Naples, Italy, and she grew up immersed in Italian traditions and strong family ties.Music played a huge role in her youth—she became the pianist for her school assemblies and eventually played in the All-City Orchestra in Philadelphia.She lived through World War II and vividly recalls the day Pearl Harbor was bombed—her younger brother's birthday.She later married Opa (Laszlo), a Hungarian immigrant, physicist, and survivor of religious persecution, whose brilliance and humility left a lasting mark on the family.Personal memories, from roller-skating mishaps to Epcot visits and feeding the dogs behind Grandma's back, make this story uniquely intimate.#TheHumanExperiencePodcast Follow Along:Website: https://www.thehxpod.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thehxpod/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/getthehxTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@thehxpodYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@thehxpod Donate to The Human Experience PodcastFollow Along on InstagramVisit The WebsiteSend me an email at TheHXPod@gmail.com

“RICHARD CARLSON: CLASSIC CINEMA STAR OF THE MONTH” (081) - 3/31/2025 Tall, dark-haired, and handsome, RICHARD CARLSON was always a welcomed addition to any cast. From the beginning, when he was playing preppy college students opposite LANA TURNER, to his reign in the 1950s as the King of Sci-Fi thrillers, Carlson brought believability and authority to each role but also a sense of introspective thoughtfulness. You looked into his deep blue eyes and chiseled face and believed him. Whatever he was selling, we were buying. And while he never became an A-list leading man, he enjoyed a long and steady career and enhanced many a mediocre film with his special appeal.

The company's flagship Rainbow deposit, coming within 90 meters of surface and drilled to a depth of 900 meters, represents one of the highest-grade copper resources in North America.Led by President and CEO Max Porterfield, Callinex has submitted an advanced exploration permit that would allow development of a ramp to access Rainbow and extract a 10,000-ton bulk sample. This first phase of permitting, potentially approved by late 2025, could lead to full-scale production after obtaining an environmental license."If you're buying Calinex today for less than a $20 million market cap Canadian, you're getting exposure to just shy of 6 million tons of some of the highest grade copper mineralization not just North America but on a global basis," stated Porterfield.The majority of Rainbow's resource (3.44 million of 4.7 million tons) already falls within the indicated category. The company has consolidated over 10,000 hectares of underexplored land, creating a district-scale opportunity in what it calls the "Pine Bay camp."Rather than focusing on infill drilling at Rainbow, Callinex is shifting attention to growing resources through exploration at shallow historic deposits. Primary targets include the "Visionary" area containing the Leo deposit and the "General" area with the Alberts deposit. Historical drilling at Visionary intersected significant mineralization, including 8.5 meters of 3% copper in one hole and 3 meters of over 5% copper with gold credits in another.Callinex is the only junior mining company with a 43-101 copper resource in Manitoba and the only copper resource within 30 kilometers of Flin Flon. The company maintains a tight capital structure with no debt, positioning itself for growth as it pursues a two-pronged approach of resource expansion and permitting advancement.With copper prices rising amid projected supply deficits by 2030, Callinex's high-grade resources in a stable jurisdiction appear well-positioned. As Porterfield noted, "Being in Canada, being in a safe jurisdiction, being in close proximity to this infrastructure and being in a position to be able to fast track that as our leaders within Canada look to explorers like Kalinex to transition and be the next producers puts us in an ideal place."View Callinex Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/callinex-minesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Today we had the very exciting opportunity to take COBT “On The Road” to the Colorado School of Mines (CSM) in Golden, CO, where we recorded a special live audience show featuring Dr. Paul Johnson, President of CSM, and Jeff Miller, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Halliburton. Paul has led CSM for nearly ten years and brings extensive experience in academia, previously serving as Dean of the School of Engineering at Arizona State University. Jeff has served as CEO of Halliburton since 2017 and has held multiple senior leadership roles across the company since joining in 1997. Before our discussion, we had the pleasure of touring the CSM campus, visiting with faculty, staff and students, and hearing from select administrators. We were thrilled to visit with Paul and Jeff for a broad discussion on the evolving landscape of energy education, workforce development, and the critical role of industry-academia collaboration in shaping the future of energy. In our conversation, we explore CSM's history, its longstanding focus on engineering, and its deep ties to the energy industry. We discuss the collaboration of Halliburton Labs with universities and research institutions as well as the resurgence of interest in mining, driven by its critical role in energy security and renewables. Paul shares insights into CSM's experimental mine and its applications across energy, defense, and technology sectors, how Mines contributes to U.S. competitiveness in the global energy landscape, and the university's balance between academic research and real-world industry applications. We examine the shift in student interests and industry focus over the past decade, Halliburton's approach to hiring and retaining skilled workers, and the benefits of CSM's emphasis on real-world problem solving. Paul shares his perspective on the increasing importance of hands-on experience in engineering education and the diversity of industries hiring CSM graduates from aerospace, oil and gas, infrastructure, computer science and more. Jeff discusses how Halliburton Labs supports early-stage companies, the role of accelerators in bridging the gap between R&D and commercialization, and differences between “Founders” and “CEOs.” We touch on technological advancements at CSM including its ambitious expansion into space resource utilization and development of a cutting-edge quantum engineering program, AI's growing impact on industry and education, and much more. We ended by asking Paul and Jeff for their vision of CSM and Halliburton in the next decade. Their outlook reflects continued growth and a can-do attitude toward solving some of the world's most pressing challenges. Today was a fascinating exploration of the current state of industry-academic collaboration, the new energy pragmatism we all keep talking about, and the incredible innovation that can happen on a great campus like CSM. As you'll hear, we discuss the exciting Halliburton Labs Pitch Day event taking place in Denver Wednesday.

Otherwise, you can register to attend virtually from anywhere! We want to thank the teams at Colorado School of Mines and Halliburton Labs for their partnership and hospitality in making today's episode possible.

Ever wondered how to revitalize struggling communities while promoting sustainable practices? I had the pleasure of speaking with Kirk Taylor, co-founder of Land Betterment Corporation, about their innovative approach to community development and sustainable agriculture. Kirk's background in accounting and finance, combined with his entrepreneurial spirit, led him to tackle the challenges faced by transitioning communities in areas like Kentucky, West Virginia, and southern Indiana.We discussed Land Betterment's unique projects, including the transformation of abandoned industrial sites into housing solutions and the development of container-based farms in partnership with Anu. Kirk explained how their 20-foot shipping container farms, equipped with advanced automation technology, are revolutionizing local food production. These compact, efficient units are being deployed in various settings, from restaurants and grocery stores to universities, addressing food security issues and promoting education in sustainable agriculture.Throughout our conversation, Kirk emphasized the importance of stakeholder engagement and community-driven solutions. He shared examples of how Land Betterment works closely with local communities to identify their needs and develop tailored solutions, whether it's creating affordable housing or repurposing land for agricultural use. We also touched on the company's involvement in sustainable fertilizer recycling and their commitment to circular economy principles.If you're interested in innovative approaches to community development, sustainable agriculture, or the intersection of business and social impact, you won't want to miss this episode.

But we also wanted our investors and our partners to understand that we were making decisions not just for their return, but to maximize the return of all our stakeholders.""The challenge with any farming is external environment and human error. We solve the external environment by doing it inside a shipping container. Our competition doesn't solve for the human error component, but the Anu team does.""I think that everybody has the ability to make something out of themselves and be proud of what they do. Not everybody realizes that.

In this episode of Change Leader Insights, Jessica Crow speaks with Rich Steele, a technology leader with 25+ years of experience driving project delivery and transformational change, about leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) and change. As the Enterprise AI Practice Leader at Execution Specialists Group (ESG), Rich guides clients through strategic planning, implementation, and optimization, harnessing the full potential and promise of AI and other technologies to accelerate growth, transform operations, and empower employee and customer experiences. Previously, Rich was the Director of the Central Portfolio Management Office at Charles Schwab and has held senior leadership roles at DaVita Healthcare Partners and JPMorgan Chase. He is also on the AI Advisory Board for Denver University, has presented at the Gartner PMO Symposium, and has been a guest speaker at Syracuse University and the Colorado School of Mines. During the conversation, Jessica asked Rich what questions organizations should ask when implementing AI. Says Rich, “The first question to ask is fundamentally, ‘Where are you trying to go? What problems do you have? What do you want to be when you grow up?' There's this tendency to want to jump on the bandwagon. AI's implications on your company, culture, and business processes can be huge. It's important to be intentional about where you're trying to go.” Highlights from the conversation include: ☑️ A brief history of AI and the expected impacts on the global economy ☑️ An overview of what organizations should consider when implementing AI to make it a lasting success for their teams ☑️ Advice for preparing for a future state in which humans collaborate with AI to do their jobs If you want to learn more about AI and change, be sure to tune in and hear what Rich has to say!

Interview with David Cates, President & CEO of Denison MinesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/denison-mines-tsxvdml-bullish-fundamentals-set-stage-for-denison-to-thrive-4876Recording date: 6th March 2025Denison Mines (TSX: DML, NYSE American: DNN) is making significant progress on its Wheeler River Project, positioning the Phoenix deposit to become Canada's first in-situ recovery uranium mine with production targeted for the first half of 2028.The company has completed substantial technical de-risking work and is now in the final regulatory stages. Canadian Nuclear Safety Commission hearings are scheduled for October and December 2025, with potential approval expected in early 2026, which would allow construction to begin shortly thereafter.According to CEO David Cates, the Phoenix deposit is projected to produce 7-9 million pounds of uranium annually during its first five years of operation, decreasing to 3-5 million pounds in the latter five years of its 10-year mine life. Beyond Phoenix, Denison's Gryphon deposit at Wheeler River could extend the combined mine life to approximately 15 years, maintaining an average annual production of 7-9 million pounds.Denison distinguishes itself from competitors through its debt-free status and strong balance sheet. Cates indicated the financing strategy would focus on "credit-related instruments" rather than equity raises, aiming for "minimal to no equity dilution" for shareholders.The CEO expressed skepticism about many announced uranium projects in the sector, emphasizing the challenges in assembling qualified teams and securing necessary permits. Having worked on Phoenix since 2019, Cates believes many competitor timelines are unrealistic: "I'm not sure how you go from being a staff of two people or three people in a company to all of a sudden having the team that can engineer and build and then execute one of these projects and do it in the next two years."While the uranium spot price has experienced recent volatility, Cates emphasized that most uranium volumes are traded in the long-term market, which has maintained strength. He views the current market conditions as creating potential buying opportunities, with equity valuations showing a "massive disconnect" from the fundamental supply-demand imbalance.Beyond Phoenix, Denison is advancing other projects, including a partnership with Orano on the Midwest project and work with Korea Hydro & Nuclear Power on the Waterbury Lake THT deposit. The company aims to position itself as a "high-margin intermediate producer" in the 5-10 million pound annual production range, focusing on quality projects in the Athabasca Basin rather than pursuing market share through lower-margin assets.View Denison Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/denison-mines-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

...in which we visit the far northeast of Cumbria to explore the remarkable history and remains of the Nenthead lead mines. In the company of geologist and Nenthead Mines trustee Pete Jackson, we learn about the earliest mineral prospecting in the area, where 'the old men' sought out lead in becks, waterfalls and, latterly, artificial hushes. Arriving at a centuries-old stone leat – still flowing – we consider the unusual addition of flag coverings, and nature's steady reclamation of spoil heaps. Entering the hill at Carr's Level, we consider the boom years of the London Quaker Lead Company, and the values that gave rise to social housing and an early form of sickness pay. Moving deeper into the mines – and through the evolution of extractive technologies, from hand-picking to dynamite – we proceed to the great depression that made Nenthead a truly European operation, where British, Italian, French and German miners mixed, mined and lived together. We end our journey atop the mind-blowing 300-foot Brewery Shaft, where Pete describes the five-mile subterranean canal – once a tourist attraction – that links Nenthead to Alston.

Bharara explains why the velocity, volume, and radicalism of Trump's blizzard of executive actions are testing the legal system in unprecedented ways; Pam Bondi's early moves to remake the DOJ are so ominous; and the claims on the right that court rulings against Trump are tantamount to a judicial coup aren't merely crazy or hyperbolic but actually dangerous. Despite all this, Preet also makes his case for why it's crucial that, instead of freaking out, Trump's critics keep calm and carry on—for now.
