IT'S AN OSTRICH. Kidding, welcome back to this episode and we're going to learn about the biggest bird on planet earth (Currently)Ostriches are large flightless birds. They are the heaviest living birds, and lay the largest eggs of any living land animal. With the ability to run at 70 km/h (43.5 mph), they are the fastest birds on land. They are farmed worldwide, with significant industries in the Philippines and Namibia. Ostrich leather is a lucrative commodity, and the large feathers are used as plumes for the decoration of ceremonial headgear. Ostrich eggs have been used by humans for millennia.Ostriches are of the genus Struthio in the order Struthioniformes, part of the infra-class Palaeognathae, a diverse group of flightless birds also known as ratites that includes the emus, rheas, cassowaries and kiwis. There are two living species of ostrich: the common ostrich, native to large areas of sub-Saharan Africa, and the Somali ostrich, native to the Horn of Africa.[2] The common ostrich used to be native to the Arabian Peninsula, and ostriches were present across Asia as far east as China and Mongolia during the Late Pleistocene and possibly into the Holocene.

Season 15, Episode 12: So it comes down to Mitchell Marsh vs Cameron Green - but does it make sense for David Warner to get his preferred farewell instead of making space in the Test XI against Pakistan? It's one question with Australia's Test summer around the corner. The T20 side is still in India instead of having a ticker-tape parade at home, where WBBL finals are about to start. Meanwhile, it's silly season in the IPL, the next England summer has started taking shape, and the most important cricket this week is being played in Namibia, where Zimababwe are likely to miss next year's T20 World Cup.

This audio is brought to you by Wearcheck, your condition monitoring specialist. The implementation of study tours aimed at boosting the acceleration of green hydrogen development in South Africa form the core of a tender just called, which closes on December 8. Mining Weekly can report that this is being done amid the ability of green hydrogen to create a significant new economy with a multiplicity of business models and opportunities, and a growing number of people coming to understand that green hydrogen is the champagne of the energy transition. The knowledge-exchange tender has been called by the the German sustainability organisastion Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), which is a long-standing promoter of green hydrogen development in South Africa, through the Hydrogen South Africa project. GIZ, working on behalf of the German Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, is inviting bids from companies with a local South African presence. Despite the promising conditions for the development of a green hydrogen economy in South Africa, many are finding the uptake far less widespread than they could be and want any challenges that continue to persist to be tackled with urgency. The GIZ tender is aimed at improving networking among institutions engaged with green hydrogen research, innovation and development within the Southern African region, where Namibia is certainly catching the eye. To be built in Namibia in the next ten months is a green hydrogen pilot plant and refuelling facilities to gain scientific insights into the implications of upscaling green hydrogen technologies. GIZ wants the company that wins the study tours tender to engender an exchange of green hydrogen knowledge, good co-ordination, and maximum collaboration, which many believe to be urgent. Tender documents are available for downloading at https://www.giz.de/en/worldwide/133334.html IMPORTANT FOR ENERGY TRANSITION Green hydrogen and its derivatives ensure that green energy can be distributed over very long distances. These can also provide the storage capacity that fluctuating renewable energy requires, given that the more fluctuating the renewable energy is, the greater the storage that will be needed. Green hydrogen is also the first choice wherever more efficient battery technology is not advisable and whenever high efficiency does not play a key role, for example, in times of high renewable energy production and low demand. It is only green hydrogen, which is hydrogen produced from renewable energies through electrolysis, can help the world protect the climate in the most ubiquitous fashion. ZERO-EMISSION LIVING Last month, in an earlier tender, GIZ last called for bidders to use its available green hydrogen toolkit to enhance green hydrogen in communities. In that tender, it wanted the winning service provider to amplify green hydrogen at the smaller community end of the green hydrogen spectrum, to balance out the concentration at the big end of that spectrum. The toolkit was described as a practical, user-friendly, and customisable community development instrument to support green hydrogen projects within a community development context. This is aimed at ensuring that community development is not left out of the global advance towards zero-emission living as companies involved in realising zero-emission obligations typically deploy extensive expertise in renewable energies, green energy and green infrastructure. Most projects have tended not to extend green hydrogen benefits to communities as much as is possible and the toolkit is highlighted as a pathway to improved green community inclusion, which is key if South Africa is to make inroads into the green hydrogen economy in an equitable and credible manner. PLATINUM DEMAND The large opencast Mogalakwena mine in Limpopo is using green hydrogen to power its nuGen zero emission haulage solution, that is scheduled to be spread globally across the group.

Green hydrogen produced on site can play a huge role in solving the energy crisis as it eliminates the challenges associated with establishing electrical distribution networks over vast distances, says Hydrox Holdings CEO Corrie de Jager. "Access to dependable energy can be the catalyst to improving the lives of many and with access to electricity the potential of Africa's people can be developed," De Jager points out in a release to Engineering News & Mining Weekly. Hydrox's Proudly South African divergent electrode flow through (DEFTTM) technology, already a recipient of South Africa's National Science and Technology Forum Award for Innovation, last year won top recognition in Monaco at the principality's inaugural hydrogen forum. DEFT allows hydrogen-producing electrolysers to operate without membranes at higher temperatures, resulting in significantly improved electrical efficiencies. The African Hydrogen Partnership estimates that more than 600-million people in Africa have no access to electricity. "To replace paraffin and diesel with methanol and hydrogen is going to make a massive impact in people's lives," says De Jager. "At conference after conference we learn about big plans and vast amounts available for the development of green hydrogen in South Africa but the execution of these plans is unfortunately lacking. "Many engineers and firms, including ourselves, that have the technology and knowhow to immediately implement hydrogen-related projects, are faced with the harsh reality that access to funding is just about impossible. "The relevant governmental agencies, and even the venture capital firms in control of these funds, are so busy 'de-risking' projects that smaller enterprises are denied access to funding - and in the process South Africa is losing valuable skills and technology," he says. Hydrox calculates that its membraneless DEFT has the potential to reduce the cost of producing hydrogen by up to 30%. Envisaged when Hydrox beat off 15 global strongholds, among them the US, Europe, Canada, Australia and India to win its Monoco award, was that the principality could use the South African technology in a marine context. "They've got these huge motor boats lying out there in the harbour, massive ones, that all use diesel, and they want to replace the diesel with green hydrogen - as do the countries alongside them, such as Spain and Italy, Gibraltar and Malta. They all approached us. They have a huge need to get into the green hydrogen space," De Jager told Engineering News & Mining Weekly last December. "There is great excitement about South Africa's plans to take advantage of our abundant sunshine and to a lesser degree our wind resources to generate green hydrogen industries for export to Europe and Japan. "This is great news for all our green pundits but from a purely practical view, it is difficult to see how we in South Africa can compete in the export market," he contends. Australia is investing heavily in green hydrogen; existing pipelines of Algeria, Tunisia, Morocco and Egypt, with already developing green hydrogen zones, can pump methanol at low cost; Namibia, with existing infrastructure in place, is receiving financial support from Germany; and Spain, with significant solar and wind resources, is developing its own green hydrogen industries. Germany is completing a study which indicates that South Africa needs to make itself more competitive. At the end of the month, Hydrox will, once again, be presenting in Monaco, where it will be highlighting a solution to large-scale energy storage at high energy efficiencies. DEFT, without a membrane, allows for higher temperature production and can operate off seawater and treated acid mine water. Standard electrolysers use a heat exchanger system to remove excess heat so that it does not supersede the maximum operating temperature of the membrane. Within DEFT, this excess temp...

Mining Weekly Editor Martin Creamer discusses the far-reaching iridium-thrifting breakthrough that happened this week; Germany funding a green hydrogen pilot plant in Namibia; and the major value boost that South African ilmenite has received.

Back to the Dark Continent... This episode is raw and unedited, just as we recorded it beside a campfire along the Okavango river late one night, with lions roaring and elephants trumpeting in the background.  On the second half of our fall 2023 safari with Kowas Adventure Safaris in Namibia, my daughter Audrey shot a wonderful old kudu bull and a gnarly-horned impala. Then Austin Brown and I broke out the big-bore dangerous game rifles to hunt cape buffalo. We tracked old bachelor bull groups through the days in heat up to 102 degrees Fahrenheit, in ankle-deep sand, and shot three massive old bulls.  This episode is all about the stories, folks!  The episode wraps up with a discussion of African conservation challenges and the future, including a hard, honest look at the cow elephant herds moving into the historic Caprivi Strip region and decimating the habitat.  Experiences like this only happen once in a lifetime, and we hope you enjoy the stories...    If you're interested in following in our tracks and going on safari with a truely exceptional operator in Namibia—family owned, operated, and oriented—check out Kowas Adventure Safaris.      FRIENDS, PLEASE SUPPORT THE PODCAST!  Join the Backcountry Hunting Podcast tribe and get access to all our bonus material on www.patreon.com/backcountry VISIT OUR SPONSORS HERE:  www.browning.com www.barnesbullets.com www.timneytriggers.com www.leupold.com www.onxmaps.com www.silencercentral.com https://www.portersfirearms.com/ www.gunwerks.com www.siembidacustomknives.com https://javelinbipod.com

The arrest was public, humiliating and sensational - sending shockwaves through Lagos - but throughout it all, Bishop Dawodu maintains his innocence.Philip Taiwo, an acclaimed investigative psychologist, is asked by his sister, a member of the church's congregation, to clear the pastor's name. With no actual body, it looks to be a simple case and despite Philip's dislike of organised religion, he agrees to take it on as a favour to his sister. Then the First Lady's body is found in a nearby lake just as Philip's beloved family come under attack from someone warning him off the case, and he realises that nothing to do with this investigation will be straightforward.Was it murder or suicide? Is someone framing the Bishop or the First Lady?FEMI KAYODE trained as a clinical psychologist in Nigeria, before starting a career in advertising.

Rhinos are one of the most endangered species on the planet that are still hunted in places. Oh man! How can you do that? How can you hunt an endangered species? Isn't that illegal? There are lots of questions that surround Rhinos - but one specifically that keeps coming up - are Rhino populations decreasing because of hunting? Rhino's are being absolutely decimated from poaching throughout Southern Africa. In South Africa and Namibia though there are bastions where Rhino's are flourishing and breeding and their population is increasing. These places tend to be tied with private hunting concessions. Why is this the case? The value that hunting, and in some places hunting Rhino's brings, allows these animals to be protected. Security around Rhinos is incredibly expensive endeavor that is a 365 day, 24 hr, 7 day a week job. Learn the truth here in under 4 minutes!

Hunting has to be driven by the best available information, and the best available science. Ensuring sustainable take with population estimates is a good way to ensure that hunting is not having a deterimental effect on the population, which, honestly, is the last thing that any hunter wants. The science becomes even more critical when it comes to charismatic megafauna like leopards. So we received the question about leopards in Nambia, specifically "What's the latest population estimate of leopards in Namibia?" Starting with 14,154 and a 250 leopard per year trophy hunting quota per year. After a new survey was undertaken recently between 2017 and 2019, an expanded population range was observed, it was found that densities vary widely across Namibia.
