Interview with Glenn Jessome, President & CEO of Silver Tiger Metals Inc.Recording date: 28th November 2025Silver Tiger Metals presents investors with a rare opportunity to gain exposure to a near-term silver production scenario backed by exceptional project economics, secured financing, and an experienced development team. The company has achieved a significant milestone in obtaining Mexico's first new mining permit since 2020, enabling development of the El Tigre bulk tonnage stockwork deposit in Sonora state with an 18-24 month construction timeline beginning January 2026.The project's pre-feasibility study demonstrates compelling financial metrics: an after-tax NPV of $750 million, a 92% internal rate of return, one-year capital payback, and projected annual cash flow exceeding $100 million once in production. These economics reflect current precious metals prices of approximately $31-32 per ounce silver and $2,700 per ounce gold, with sensitivity analysis showing substantial upside to higher metal prices. At $35 silver and US$3,000 gold, annual after-tax cash flow increases to $60 million.Silver Tiger's capital position differentiates the company from typical development-stage mining projects. With US$60 million in treasury against US$186 million total capital requirements, the company has deliberately avoided the constraints associated with debt-heavy financing structures. Management has secured debt financing options with favourable terms to be finalised in 2025, whilst maintaining sufficient cash reserves to pursue parallel objectives including underground mine advancement, regional exploration programmes, and early-stage work at satellite deposits.The execution risk profile benefits significantly from the appointment of Francisco Albelais, a Mexican mining engineer with 25 years of experience building and operating bulk tonnage mines in Sonora. From 2010 to 2023, Francisco built two 55,000 tonnes-per-day mines for Argonaut Gold, managing teams of 400 personnel through complete project lifecycles. He brings established contractor relationships and access to a 200-person construction team based in Hermosillo, approximately two hours from site.Critical preparatory work already completed includes final engineering scheduled for completion on December 2025, construction of a 53-kilometre all-weather access road capable of transporting mill components, and securing long-term power supply arrangements with Mexico's federal electricity regulator. The company will operate on generator sets during the 18-month construction period, transitioning to grid power within two years.Beyond the initial bulk tonnage operation, Silver Tiger will release a preliminary economic assessment in January 2026 for an 800 tonnes-per-day underground mine targeting high-grade silver mineralization. The underground resource contains 113 million silver-equivalent ounces, representing a 31-year mine life before considering exploration upside. The company has already purchased and delivered the processing mill to site.The broader investment case encompasses significant exploration potential across a 30-kilometre mineralized trend. Current resources of approximately 213 million silver-equivalent ounces (100 million bulk tonnage, 113 million underground) exist within only 2-3 kilometres of explored territory, with independent consultants identifying near-term potential for an additional 73-100 million ounces through infill drilling. Historical mines to the north and south offer district-scale discovery opportunities.At a current market capitalization of approximately $350 million versus $750 million NPV for the initial operation alone, Silver Tiger offers investors substantial re-rating potential as construction progresses and production de-risking occurs.View Silver Tiger Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/silver-tiger-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Sam Hartmann, VP Exploration, and Dev Randhawa, Chairman & CEO, of F3 Uranium Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/f3-uranium-tsxvfuu-billion-dollar-discovery-team-strikes-again-in-worlds-best-uranium-district-7874Recording date: 27th November 2025F3 Uranium Corp. (TSXV: FUU) has completed a $20 million financing to fund a year-long drilling campaign at its Tetra Zone discovery in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin. The financing, which included $15 million in flow-through funds, brings the company's treasury to $30 million and eliminates near-term dilution pressure as the exploration program advances.CEO Dev Randhawa explained the strategic shift toward Tetra Zone, which has emerged as the company's primary focus after the JR Zone failed to grow as anticipated. Despite JR's promising initial indicators, including peak grades of 4.5 meters at 50% uranium along a large conductor, the system has not delivered the expansion investors expected. Tetra Zone, by contrast, shows significantly greater potential with 60 meters of mineralization-three times what JR produced-sits just 12 kilometers from the Arrow and Triple R deposits along an apparent productive geological trend.Recent drilling results support management's confidence in the discovery. The most recent hole intersected mineralization in a 15-meter step-out, with scintillometer readings exceeding 10,000 counts per second across 30+ meters. Chief Geologist Sam Hartmann estimates a 2.3-meter high-grade interval "will be well over a percent" when laboratory assays are returned. This successful step-out confirms both continuity and the geological model's predictive capability.The technical understanding of Tetra has evolved considerably from initial interpretations. Unlike typical Athabasca deposits controlled by graphitic conductors, Tetra appears to be shear-zone-controlled, with mineralization in micaceous structures that generate weaker geophysical signatures. This realization explains why early drilling repeatedly intersected mineralization at unexpected depths and has enabled more confident targeting going forward.F3's systematic approach involves methodical 25-50-100 meter step-outs to balance resource definition with expansion testing. With an experienced discovery team that previously found Waterbury and contributed to the Triple R discovery (sold for approximately $1 billion), the company is positioned to methodically test whether Tetra can join the ranks of significant Athabasca Basin uranium deposits. Regular drilling results are expected throughout 2026 as the delineation program progresses.View F3 Uranium's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/f3-uranium-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Recording date: 25th November 2025Derek Mcpherson and Sam Pelaez of Olive Resource Capital highlight critical developments reshaping mining investment, with asset scarcity and supply chain vulnerabilities emerging as defining challenges for the sector.The ongoing Anglo American situation exemplifies limited growth options for major miners. Despite BHP quickly dismissing weekend speculation about a renewed bid, the December 9th shareholder vote underscores how few tier-one assets exist that can materially impact large producers' portfolios. Pelaez notes these critical assets remain concentrated among major companies like Teck, Anglo, and Glencore, with many already partnered on world-scale Chilean copper projects. The executives emphasize that while acquisition targets are scarce, "eventually someone has to build something, and the biggest companies are best positioned to build something."Sovereign wealth funds are now competing for direct critical minerals exposure. The Qatar Investment Authority's memorandum of understanding with Ivanhoe Mines to support Democratic Republic of Congo growth mirrors earlier Chinese sovereign investments in tier-one African assets. This development signals Middle Eastern capital seeking strategic positioning in what Pelaez views as an emerging electrification commodities bull market, though he stresses there are "simply not enough investable assets and companies for everyone to get direct exposure."The gold equity market continues maturing, with Muddy Waters pitching pre-revenue explorer Snowline Gold at the generalist Sohn Conference—a significant milestone indicating institutional capital flowing beyond traditional mining investors. This follows sustained inflows into the GDX ETF and suggests generalists are increasingly willing to evaluate unprofitable developers.However, the most critical structural challenge remains Western processing capabilities. Despite domestic mining efforts, North American materials still require Chinese processing for battery precursor conversion. Pelaez emphasizes the West lags China "more than a decade" in rare earths, lithium, and graphite processing, creating supply chain vulnerabilities that policy alone cannot address. For investors, understanding complete processing pathways matters as much as resource quality when evaluating critical minerals projects.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Elaine Ellingham, President & CEO of Omai Gold MinesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/omai-gold-mines-tsxvomg-19m-funded-pea-in-2026-targets-multi-generational-40-year-mine-life-8052Recording date: 25th November 2025Omai Gold Mines has executed a dramatic transformation of its flagship Guyanese project in 2025, expanding its mineral resource by 51% from 4.3 million ounces to 6.5 million ounces through an aggressive drilling campaign. This growth trajectory positions the company among the developers of the world's largest undeveloped gold projects, achieved through a strategic pivot that CEO Elaine Ellingham describes as capitalizing on unexpected geological success.The turning point came in early January 2025 when assay results revealed exceptionally wide, high-grade intercepts at the Wenot deposit - 4.5 grams per tonne over 57 meters and 3.2 grams per tonne over 68 meters. "These are the widest, best intercepts ever for Wenot," Ellingham explained. "When you're seeing things like that you can add the ounces quickly." The company immediately redeployed drilling resources to pursue these zones, ultimately deploying up to four rigs focused on expansion rather than incremental resource conversion.The results exceeded internal expectations. "We even surprised ourselves," Ellingham noted following the August 2025 resource update that added 2.2 million ounces. The company is now advancing an integrated preliminary economic assessment targeting 12,000-15,000 tonnes per day processing capacity - substantially larger than the previous 9,000 tpd concept - combining the Wenot open pit (averaging 1.5+ g/t) with the nearby Gilt Creek underground mine.Perhaps most significant for future growth, deep drilling 700 meters below known mineralization successfully intersected the shear structure with seven distinct gold zones, proving the system continues at depth. If the 2.5-kilometer strike length extends downward, Ellingham suggested the deposit "could potentially double in size."With $40 million in recent financing completed at four times earlier pricing, five operating drill rigs, advancing permitting including scheduled community consultations, and strong government support following September's decisive election results, Omai has positioned itself for continued newsflow and development progress in a favorable gold price environment. The company expects substantial assay results through early 2026 as laboratories process samples from the intensive drilling campaign.View Omai Gold Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/omai-gold-minesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with David Cataford, CEO of Champion Iron Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/g-mining-ventures-tsxgmin-champion-iron-tsxcia-playbook-for-success-7198Recording date: 24th November 2025Champion Iron stands at a compelling inflection point for investors seeking exposure to steel industry decarbonisation. After seven years and over $2 billion of capital investment, the Canadian iron ore producer is weeks away from completing its transformation into one of the world's premier ultra-high-grade concentrate suppliers, with the major expenditure cycle ending December 2025 and material free cash flow generation beginning 2026.The company just delivered its strongest quarterly performance in two years, generating approximately $175 million EBITDA with record sales of 4 million tonnes. This operational momentum comes as Champion works through a 3-million-tonne stockpile of premium 66.2% concentrate that provides near-term cash generation visibility as inventory converts to sales over coming quarters. Management owns over 10% of the business, ensuring strong alignment with shareholder interests.Champion's most significant catalyst arrives with December 2025 completion of its $500 million DR Pellet Feed project, over 80% complete with remaining work focused on piping and electrical systems. This upgrade transitions half of production – approximately 7-12 million tonnes annually – to up to 69% iron ore concentrate, positioning Champion amongst the world's highest-grade producers with first commercial shipments expected early 2026.The strategic rationale extends beyond grade premiums. Current production ships approximately 9 million tonnes annually to China, incurring freight costs of $23-25 per tonne whilst competing against proximate Australian and Brazilian suppliers. The DR Pellet Feed material targets North Africa, Middle East, and European customers where Champion's Canadian location becomes proximity advantage, reducing freight costs whilst commanding premiums for material essential to Direct Reduction Iron processes central to steel decarbonisation.Champion's ore stability provides critical competitive advantage. The company maintains an unblemished on-specification delivery record, enabling long-term contracts with sophisticated buyers who cannot tolerate specification risk in DRI feedstock. Whilst premiums for high-grade material currently sit at historical lows, Champion has witnessed premiums reaching $45 per tonne during previous periods of tight supply, suggesting significant upside potential as steel industry decarbonisation accelerates.The valuation disconnect presents compelling opportunity. Champion trades at market capitalisation under $2 billion against over $6 billion in replacement costs – approximately 70% discount to asset replication value. This gap exists despite management's unblemished track record of delivering three consecutive major projects on time and on budget since 2017. Management is now evaluating share buybacks as value-creating strategy given this substantial discount.Iron ore pricing resilience stems from Chinese domestic production economics. China produces over 450 million tonnes at relatively high cost, creating natural price support as high-cost producers curtail output when prices decline. This dynamic has provided consistent support around $100 per tonne despite analyst forecasts of lower pricing since 2015.Beyond current operations, Champion secured attractive growth optionality through its Kami project – potential 9-million-tonne-per-year development with 49% sold to Nippon Steel and Sojitz. Partner equity contributions fund several years of permitting and feasibility work without requiring Champion shareholder capital, with construction decision possible in 2027.With capital expenditure cycle ending December 2025, Champion maintains four-year track record of semi-annual dividend payments (10 cents per share) whilst evaluating enhanced returns as free cash flow materialises. Multiple value drivers converge through 2026: working capital release, cost improvements, premium product sales, and enhanced capital returns at compelling valuation for investors believing in iron ore price stability and steel decarbonisation trends.View Champion Iron's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/champion-iron-limitedSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Chad Peters, President & CEO of Ridgeline Minerals Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/partnership-driven-mining-exploration-reducing-risk-maximizing-returns-8307Recording date: 21st November 2025Ridgeline Minerals (TSXV:RDG) presents investors with an unusual proposition: leveraged exposure to a Nevada carbonate replacement deposit discovery that South32 publicly compares to its $2 billion Taylor acquisition, yet trades at valuations suggesting significant market scepticism. Understanding this disconnect requires examining both the technical merits of the Selena discovery and the strategic value of Ridgeline's partner-funded business model.The company's second drill hole at Selena intersected multiple massive sulphide horizons including 17 metres of 6% zinc with 30-40 g/t silver plus copper, gold, and antimony credits. Using metallurgical recovery rates from South32's Taylor feasibility study (79-95% across all metals), this intercept grades approximately 30% higher on a metal equivalent basis than Taylor's resource grade. The hole validated a 2-kilometre-long magnetotelluric anomaly comparable in scale and intensity to Taylor, which South32 is spending US$3 billion to develop as one of the world's largest silver-lead-zinc deposits.South32's Chief Development Officer publicly congratulated Ridgeline on the discovery and compared it to Taylor's early days, providing external validation from a major miner with global CRD expertise. The partnership structure requires South32 to spend US$10 million over five years to earn 60% of Selena, with Ridgeline earning 10% of every dollar spent. An optional phase two allows South32 to spend another US$10 million over three years to reach 80%, automatically triggering Ridgeline's fully carried interest to commercial production on the remaining 20% stake.CEO Chad Peters emphasised the significance: "Taylor to build is publicly announced US$3 billion. So what is our 20% free carry worth? US$600 million - that's US$600 million less of dilution to Ridgeline shareholders." Even if South32 stops at 60% ownership, Peters noted that "if we own 40% of what might be a world-class CRD, we can fund that all day long" through project financing or third-party investment.The market's muted response to technically strong drill results reflects the challenge of valuing polymetallic deposits where zinc, silver, copper, gold, antimony, and lead contribute simultaneously to economics. Peters acknowledged this communication difficulty, noting that antimony alone - averaging 0.1% in the discovery hole - "is five times as valuable as copper," making that byproduct credit equivalent to 0.5% copper over 17 metres. For investors capable of conducting independent metallurgical and economic analysis, this complexity may create information arbitrage opportunities.Ridgeline's business model eliminates near-term financing pressure through US$60 million in total partner commitments across three Nevada projects with South32 and Nevada Gold Mines. The company anticipates approximately US$12 million in partner-funded exploration for 2026, the largest budget in its history, whilst requiring no equity financing to advance core projects. With drill hole 54 testing the heart of the Selena magnetotelluric target (results expected January 2026), pending Swift project assays, and only 18 months elapsed in South32's five-year phase one earn-in, the company sits at maximum exploration leverage where each subsequent hole materially impacts valuation.The investment thesis centres on whether South32's demonstrable commitment and public comparison to Taylor signals world-class potential that the market has failed to recognise, or whether current valuations appropriately reflect the substantial execution risk inherent in translating one discovery hole into a viable mining operation. Investors with appropriate risk tolerance and capability to evaluate complex polymetallic deposit economics may find current entry points attractive ahead of multiple near-term catalysts, whilst recognising that CRD discoveries require 7-10 years minimum from discovery to production and significant additional drilling to validate system scale and grade continuity.View Ridgeline Minerals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/ridgeline-mineralsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Crop yield estimates have gotten a boost following rainfall during October in parts of the state, and BOM working through 350,000 pieces of feedback on new website following the revelation that the site cost $96.5 million, about 20 times higher than the previously stated $4.1 million price tag.

Jason Jessup, CEO and Director of Magna Mining (TSX.V: NICU) (OTCQX: MGMNF), joins us to unpack the key takeaways from the recently announced Resource Estimate for the Levack Mine and the development pathway into production as their second polymetallic mine  located in the North Range of the Sudbury Basin, Canada.    Levack Mineral Resource Estimate Highlights (as of August 31, 2025, the cut-off for diamond drill data incorporated in the MRE): Current mineralization in the Levack Mine includes 6.1 million tonnes in the Indicated category at 3.5% copper equivalent ("CuEq"), comprised of 1.1% Cu, 1.4% Ni, 0.6 grams per tonne (g/t) Pt, 0.7 g/t Pd, 0.1 g/t Au, and 2.0 g/t Ag, as well as 5.2 million tonnes in the Inferred category at 3.6% CuEq (1.2% Cu, 1.4% Ni, 0.6 g/t Pt, 0.8 g/t Pd, 0.2 g/t Au, 2.1 g/t Ag). The high grade footwall-type deposits contain 368,000 tonnes in the Inferred category at 9.4% CuEq (5.4% Cu, 0.75% Ni, 2.9 g/t Pt, 5.4 g/t Pd, 1.5 g/t Au, and 21.0 g/t Ag), as well as 178,000 tonnes in the Indicated category at the previously-mined Morrison Footwall Cu-PGE deposit grading 15.5% CuEq (9.1% Cu, 2.4% Ni, 3.6 g/t Pt, 6.6 g/t Pd, 1.6 g/t Au, 34.2 g/t Ag), which remains open at depth. The No. 3 Footwall deposit is particularly rich in precious metals, containing 76,000 tonnes in the Inferred category grading 7.9 g/t Pt, 15.7 g/t Pd, 3.1 g/t Au and 30.3 g/t Ag, as well as 4.5% Cu and 0.7% Ni (13.4% CuEq) with important potential implications for ongoing exploration in the footwall environment. The zones of contact-type mineralization generally occur at depths of less than 750 metres (approximately 2,460 feet) and contain 5.9 million tonnes in the Indicated category grading 0.9% Cu, 1.4% Ni, and 2.1 g/t precious metals (Pt+Pd+Au+Ag), or 3.2% CuEq, as well as 4.8 million tonnes in the Inferred category at 3.2% CuEq (0.9% Cu, 1.5% Ni, 1.5 g/t precious metals (Pt+Pd+Au+Ag)).   We also review the continued series of high-grade copper, nickel, platinum, palladium, gold, and silver drill results released in recent assays from many areas of the Levack Mine after the cutoff for this resource update that are continuing to expand the mineralization.  Jason got into some of these areas like the No.1 to No. 2 Main area, the  Morrison Footwall Cu-PGE deposit, the Keel Zone, and the footwall environment between the No.2 and No. 3 Ni-Cu Zone.  There are currently two surface diamond drills operating at the Levack Mine, one completing three shallow infill and metallurgical drill holes on the Main Ni-Cu Zone in support of the Levack Restart Study, and a second drill exploring the footwall environment between the No. 3 Ni-Cu Zone and the Morrison Footwall Cu-PGE Deposit,   Jason shares more context on why the exploration and engineering teams are getting quite excited about this R2 Target at the Levack Mine, and after more drilling, it may change the anticipated sequence of the mine restart plan that the team is still working on.  The team is also reviewing the potential for bringing hoisting back to Levack in a development scenario. He mentioned that this new resource estimate paired with ongoing drilling at newer discoveries like R2 at Levack would be instructive for how they approach the mine restart plan moving into next year.   Wrapping up we widened the scope beyond just the currently producing McCreedy West mine, and upcoming development of the Levack Mine into a production decision next year, to other assets like their Crean Hill, Podolsky, and Shakespeare development projects, that showcase the company ambitions to become a multi-mine producer in the Sudbury Basin.      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.   Click here to follow along with the news at Magna Mining     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.

Last week, Magna Mining published the results for the mineral resource estimate for its Levack Mine, which contians copper, gold, platinum, palladium, silver and nickel. Greg Huffman joins us to discuss the results and helps break down the current numbers which are now at 6.1 million tonnes in the Indicated category at 3.5% copper equivalent ("CuEq"), comprised of 1.1% Cu, 1.4% Ni, 0.6 grams per tonne (g/t) Pt, 0.7 g/t Pd, 0.1 g/t Au, and 2.0 g/t Ag, as well as 5.2 million tonnes in the Inferred category at 3.6% CuEq (1.2% Cu, 1.4% Ni, 0.6 g/t Pt, 0.8 g/t Pd, 0.2 g/t Au, 2.1 g/t Ag).

Interview with Jean-Marc Lulin, President & CEO of Azimut Exploration Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/azimut-exploration-tsxvazm-kghm-funds-nickel-hunt-as-quebec-explorer-weighs-gold-asset-options-6611Recording date: 21st November 2025Azimut Exploration (TSXV:AZM) is executing a strategic transformation from prospect generator to focused development company, concentrating resources on three 100%-owned gold discoveries in Quebec's prolific mining districts. Jean-Marc Lulin, president and CEO with 40 years of global exploration experience, outlined the company's evolution and provided comprehensive project updates in a recent interview.The flagship Wabamisk property hosts two significant discoveries separated by 15 kilometers of underexplored ground. The Fortin Zone represents one of Canada's largest antimony systems, spanning at least 1.8 kilometers of strike length with mineralized envelopes reaching 50 meters in width. Drilling across 86 holes totaling 12,000 meters has tested the system to 250 meters depth, where strong mineralization continues with the deposit remaining open in multiple directions. Metallurgical testing with SGS is underway, with preliminary results described as encouraging—critical validation for economic viability during a period of elevated antimony prices driven by critical mineral supply constraints.The Rosa Zone emerged as an unexpected breakthrough in terrain explored for 90 years by 11 previous companies. Systematic prospecting revealed 300 meters of outcropping high-grade gold with abundant visible gold—both coarse and fine dust—that correlates strongly with a 1.4-kilometer induced polarization anomaly. Initial drilling intersected visible gold in 11 of 26 holes, with assay results expected by year-end 2025 or early January 2026.The company's third focus, Elmer-Patwon, represents the most advanced asset with an existing resource that benefits from gold prices substantially above the $1,800 per ounce used in the original definition. A scoping study is well advanced, with clear expansion targets identified along strike.Azimut maintains strategic leverage through partnerships, notably with KGHM on the Kukamas nickel-copper-PGE project, where drilling delivered grades up to 19.6% nickel and 15 grams per ton platinum-palladium in a kambalda-type system. KGHM is funding advancement toward a preliminary economic assessment while Azimut retains operator status with no funding obligations.Lulin emphasized the company's technical discipline: "We want to advance as quickly as possible but in a rational way." Detailed 2026 program guidance is expected in Q1 following receipt of critical assay results that will shape resource expansion strategies across the portfolio.View Azimut Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/azimut-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Host Maxwell Porter is joined by two experts to explore the geological and tectonic evolution of the iconic Laramide Porphyry Copper Province, focusing on its complex geodynamic history and the key exploration criteria that define this world-class copper belt. Our guests share complementary academic and industry perspectives, offering insights drawn from decades of research and field experience.The Geological Framework and Exploration vectors in the Globe-Miami DistrictOur first guest is Dr. Robert Lee. Robert earned his PhD at Oregon State University studying the El Salvador porphyry copper deposit in Chile. He then joined Freeport-McMoRan as a greenfields exploration geologist working across North America, the Philippines, and Europe. In 2014, he moved to UBC's MDRU, leading and contributing to research projects on tools to vector towards economic ore deposits, across the Western Tethyan Belt to the Andes and British Columbia. Since 2022, Robert has been a Principal Geoscientist with BHP's Generative Porphyry Copper team. His expertise centers on porphyry copper formation, mineral chemistry, and innovative tools for exploration, including zircon as a vector to ore.Tectonic controls on porphyry deposit formation in ArizonaOur second guest is Professor Thomas Lamont. Thomas is a structural geologist and petrologist whose work links tectonics, crustal evolution, and the formation of major ore systems. His research combines field mapping with advanced analytical tools, from EPMA and thermobarometry to isotopic and geochronological techniques. He completed his DPhil at the University of Oxford, investigating how the Cycladic Islands in Greece evolved from a compressional to an extensional tectonic regime. In a later postdoctoral role, he focused on the Laramide porphyry province of the southwestern United States, showing how flat-slab subduction drove water-fluxed melting and porphyry copper formation. Thomas now leads research into how subduction geometry shapes the thermal and mechanical state of the lithosphere and its mineral endowment in addition to other topics, as an assistant professor of Structural Geology and Tectonics at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.Many thanks to VRIFY for sponsoring Season 5 of Discovery to Recovery.Theme music is  Confluence by Eastwindseastwindsmusic.com

In this episode of DemystifySci, we peer into the very separate roots of banking and blockchain finance to find what's alive beneath the myth. Bitcoin guru and amateur mycologist, Brandon Quittem, joins us to trace the fall of old empires and the rise of a new code-born freedom. The conversation drifts between history and possibility, where gold becomes data and control slips through the fingers of the elite. What remains is a question: can money succeed without those who steer its value?PATREON https://www.patreon.com/c/demystifysciPARADIGM DRIFThttps://demystifysci.com/paradigm-drift-showHOMEBREW MUSIC - Check out our new album!Hard Copies (Vinyl): FREE SHIPPING https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/products/vinyl-lp-secretary-of-nature-everything-is-so-good-hereStreaming:https://secretaryofnature.bandcamp.com/album/everything-is-so-good-here00:00 Go! 00:04:26 The Genesis of Bitcoin and the Cipherpunks 00:08:54 The Fear of Government Control and Digital Currency 00:10:41 The Failure of Early Digital Currency Attempts 00:17:54 The Collapse of the Gold Standard 00:19:56 The Nature of Trust in Currency 00:20:54 Discussion of Properties of Money 00:25:31 Critique of Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) 00:29:52 The Risks of Unchecked Debt 00:33:31 Introduction of Bitcoin as a Solution 00:39:00 Understanding Bitcoin's Structure and Security 00:41:58 The Origin of Bitcoin Ideas 00:46:49 Understanding Blockchain and Mining 00:53:06 The Mechanics of Block Creation 00:58:04 The Finite Nature of Bitcoin Mining 01:01:57 Miners' Revenue Streams 01:03:05 Genesis of Bitcoin Mining 01:05:00 Competition Among Miners 01:07:08 Future Perspectives on Bitcoin #bitcoinanalysis , #cryptocurrencies , #blockchaineducation ,#bitcoinmining , #cryptoanalysis , #cryptotradingforbegineers , #digitalcurrency , #moneymanagement , #fintech , #investingtips , #economics , #monetarypolicy , #decentralization , #satoshinakamoto , #physicspodcast #philosophypodcast MERCH: Rock some DemystifySci gear : https://demystifysci-shop.fourthwall.com/AMAZON: Do your shopping through this link: https://amzn.to/3YyoT98DONATE: https://bit.ly/3wkPqaDSUBSTACK: https://substack.com/@UCqV4_7i9h1_V7hY48eZZSLw@demystifysci RSS: https://anchor.fm/s/2be66934/podcast/rssMAILING LIST: https://bit.ly/3v3kz2S SOCIAL: - Discord: https://discord.gg/MJzKT8CQub- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/DemystifySci- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/DemystifySci/- Twitter: https://twitter.com/DemystifySciMUSIC: -Shilo Delay: https://g.co/kgs/oty671

In this episode of the 90 Miles from Needles podcast, host Chris Clarke embarks on a detailed discussion with John Dougherty, Executive Director of Save the Scenic Santa Ritas Association, about the invasive copper mining initiatives threatening Arizona's sacred lands. Set against the backdrop of legal and environmental challenges, the conversation highlights the destructive potential of projects like the Copper World mine. With vibrant descriptions of Arizona's natural beauty juxtaposed with the stark reality of its exploitation for minerals, this episode paints an urgent call to action. Dougherty describes the controversial Copper World project, an expansion of the thwarted Rosemont Mine, spotlighting its predicted impact on local wildlife, sacred sites, and critical water resources. He explains the looming threats posed by massive open-pit mining and groundwater depletion. The discussion underscores the inadequacies and exploitation enabled by the General Mining Act of 1872, which allows mining companies to extract resources with minimal compensation to the public. Through strategic litigation efforts and community activism, Save the Scenic Santa Ritas aims to address and potentially halt these harmful mining activities. Key Takeaways: Save the Scenic Santa Ritas Association is actively opposing the Copper World mine to prevent environmental and cultural devastation in the Santa Rita Mountains. The Copper World project threatens sacred indigenous lands and critical water resources in Arizona, fostering ecological and community concerns. Arizona's legal framework, based on the General Mining Act of 1872, is scrutinized for its outdated policies favoring mining corporations without adequate environmental oversight or economic benefit to the community. The podcast underscores the importance of local and political action to combat environmental degradation and protect public lands from corporate exploitation. Dougherty advocates for grassroots support and encourages listeners to engage with local governance to enact restrictive policies on destructive mining activities. Notable Quotes: "If space aliens arrived with an orbital death ray and erased a valley in just this fashion, the nations of the world would go to war." "The damage doesn't just stop when the mining stops, the damage continues on forever." "The Ray Mine isn't the largest open pit copper mine in the state, but...it was about as stark and unexpected as I had ever seen." "This copper is going overseas...the company admits in its financial filings that the first four or five years will all be exported."

Interview with Richard Young, Chief Executive Officer of i-80 GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/i-80-gold-tsxiau-pitch-perfect-november-2025-8431Recording date: 19th November 2025i-80 Gold (TSX: IAUX) is executing a methodical three-phase development plan designed to transform the company from a marginal Nevada gold producer into a profitable mid-tier operator generating 200,000 ounces annually by 2028 with projected EBITDA of $200 million to $300 million. The company's third quarter 2025 results marked a critical inflection point, delivering the strongest financial performance in company history whilst completing permanent dewatering infrastructure that had previously constrained access to higher-grade mineralisation at the flagship Granite Creek underground mine.President and CEO Richard Young confirmed that permanent dewatering systems installed during Q3 2025 will enable accelerated underground development over the next six months into zones where "grades get better, ground conditions get better, and we expect mining rates to rise." A 47-hole infill drilling programme scheduled for completion in mid-December 2025 is yielding results that Young characterised as "consistently solid. Very good grades over very good widths," with a feasibility study incorporating these results expected at the end of Q1 2026 showing "materially better" economics than previous assessments.Construction of the Archimedes underground mine commenced in Q3 2025, providing the second production centre necessary to justify the strategic refurbishment of i-80 Gold's Lone Tree autoclave facility. The autoclave refurbishment represents the pivotal value creation opportunity in management's development thesis. With current toll milling costs ranging between $1,000 and $1,500 per ounce, i-80 Gold is effectively surrendering $200 million to $300 million in annual EBITDA at the 2028 production target of 200,000 ounces. Young stated unequivocally: "Strategically and economically, that refurbishment is very important for us to move forward with."Engineering firm Hatch has largely completed engineering work on the approximately $400 million autoclave refurbishment, with the board approving a $25 million limited notice to proceed authorising detailed engineering, long-lead equipment orders, and permitting initiation. The company expects to commence pouring gold through the refurbished autoclave before the end of 2027, creating an 18 to 24 month payback period on the capital investment at current gold prices.Beyond Granite Creek and Archimedes, i-80 Gold completed infill drilling at its Cove underground project during Q3 2025, with results showing the total mineralised envelope up between 10 and 20 percent compared to previous estimates. A feasibility study is scheduled for Q1 2026, with permitting targeted for completion before the end of 2028. The company will release three major feasibility studies between Q1 2026 and Q1 2027 covering its core underground operations, each expected to show material improvements over preliminary economic assessments.Management has received six term sheets from financing partners and is advancing toward recapitalisation completion by Q2 2026 to fund both phase one and phase two of the development plan. The company has successfully recruited experienced technical teams across mining engineering, metallurgy, and geology disciplines, a critical leading indicator of execution capability as i-80 Gold transitions from single-asset operator to multi-mine producer.For investors evaluating Nevada-focused gold producers, i-80 Gold offers substantial leverage to successful execution and higher gold prices, with the 2028 target of 200,000 ounces production and $200-300 million EBITDA generation providing a concrete benchmark for measuring management's progress toward transformational value creation.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/i-80-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

There's mounting evidence from the United Nations and others that Chinese organized crime syndicates are moving more of their operations from countries in Southeast Asia to Africa. These groups are contributing to a surge in illicit crypto mining, scam centers, illegal wildlife trafficking, and black market weapons sales. African countries with already weak governance systems are particularly vulnerable. Géraud speaks with Adam Rousselle, a researcher and author who tracks the illicit arms trade, about his recent article on the topic published by the Jamestown Foundation. Adam explains how all of the different Chinese illegal trade networks in Africa are interlinked with one another.

American Pacific Mining CEO Warwick Smith joined Mining Stock Daily to discuss the company's sale of the Palmer Copper-Zinc VMS project to Vizsla Copper for US$15 million in equity plus up to US$15 million in milestones. Smith said American Pacific always intended to transact the asset after securing full ownership last year and waited for the right partner. He highlighted Vizsla's strong track record and the improving policy backdrop in Alaska, including support from the governor and federal interest in critical minerals such as copper.Smith noted the substantial exploration potential remaining at Palmer, including untested high-grade copper boulders, and said Vizsla's recently upsized financing gives it the ability to drill aggressively. For American Pacific, the focus now shifts to the Madison project in Montana, which becomes the flagship. The company also intends to transact several Nevada projects, building a basket of equity positions alongside its core asset.He confirmed new staking at Madison after long-held in-lier claims became available, and said drilling is expected soon. Over the next year, the company plans to close the Vizsla transaction, complete Nevada deals, and advance Madison with deep drill testing. Smith emphasized that American Pacific is positioning itself for a streamlined portfolio, stronger balance sheet, and exposure to multiple exploration catalysts.

Thomas Morel joins Jana Byars to tell the story of subterranean geometry, a forgotten discipline that developed in the silver mines of early modern Europe, talking about his book Underground Mathematics: Craft Culture and Knowledge Production in Early Modern Europe (Cambridge UP, 2022). Mining and metallurgy were of great significance to the rulers of early modern Europe, required for the silver bullion that fuelled warfare and numerous other uses. Through seven lively case studies, he illustrates how geometry was used in metallic mines by practitioners using esoteric manuscripts. He describes how an original culture of accuracy and measurement paved the way for technical and scientific innovations, and fruitfully brought together the world of artisans, scholars and courts. Based on a variety of original manuscripts, maps and archive material, Morel recounts how knowledge was crafted and circulated among practitioners in the Holy Roman Empire and beyond. Specific chapters deal with the material culture of surveying, map-making, expertise and the political uses of quantification. By carefully reconstructing the religious, economic and cultural context of mining cities, Underground Mathematics contextualizes the rise of numbered information, practical mathematics and quantification in the early modern period.
