Okay, I have been meaning to do this one for about 4 years. Ron Spomer is back from Namibia and the Eastern Cape in South Africa and we're talking bushbucks and oryx and eland and rifles we take to Africa and what it's really like to hunt Namibia now, and South Africa. Not how to do it, but what it's like on safari in 2026. Oh, and this one is for Gus, by the way.

ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss preliminary production testing results from the Kavango West 1X discovery well, where the company has successfully produced hydrocarbons to surface during testing of the Elandshoek formation. Production testing began on June 8, 2026, with the company completing tests on the three lowest zones in the Elandshoek formation. The uppermost of those zones flowed natural gas to surface during three separate flow tests, with gas samples collected for laboratory analysis while the remaining hydrocarbons were safely flared. Results from U.S. laboratory testing are expected in the coming weeks. The well's 1,657-metre Otavi section, including both the Huttenberg and Elandshoek formations, has been cased and cemented, allowing ReconAfrica to individually evaluate six optimized reservoir zones identified through well log analysis. Management noted that while the production casing is necessary for testing, it may limit access to naturally fractured reservoir rock. Testing equipment is now being moved to the three shallower Huttenberg zones, which will evaluate 182 metres of reservoir, including 76 net metres of hydrocarbon pay identified from well logs. The company expects each zone to require up to 10 days of testing, with the next operational update anticipated in late August. Reinsborough said the results mark a significant milestone, as the production test represents the first hydrocarbons ever produced to surface onshore Namibia. The company added that confirming naturally fractured carbonate reservoirs in the Elandshoek formation can support production further strengthens the potential of the Kavango Basin. #proactiveinvestors #reconnaissanceenergyafricaltd #tsxv #reco #otcqx #recaf #NamibiaOil #EnergyExploration #OilAndGas #OilAndGas #Namibia #Hydrocarbons #NaturalGas #Energy #Exploration #Hydrocarbons #KavangoBasin #EnergyNews #MiningNews

There's good news and bad news for African countries in the latest China trade figures released this week. On the positive side, African exports to China surged in May and June, driven by strong demand for oil, metals, and agricultural products. China's new tariff-free policy for African goods is clearly beginning to make a difference. The downside is that almost all of this export growth came from raw, unprocessed commodities, reinforcing Africa's position at the bottom of the industrial value chain. Today, roughly 90% of Africa's exports to China are raw materials, and the latest trade data shows that pattern remains firmly intact. There are signs, however, that this could begin to change. Sanusha Naidu, a senior research fellow at the Institute for Global Dialogue in South Africa, joins Eric to discuss how Namibia and other African countries are pressing China to invest in local processing and manufacturing so more value is added before raw materials leave the continent.

South Africa and Namibia are set to strengthen ties as leaders meet in the 4th Session of the South Africa-Namibia Binational Commission.

For this Out Takes, we dedicated it to the return of MDFF aka Melbourne Documentary Film Festival, which is celebrating its 10th year this July in bringing quality films online and in cinema for Melbourne cinephiles that amplify marginalised voices and share stories from here and around the world. One of the LGBTQIA+ documentary's on offer this year is ‘Out Laws’ which follows three queer activist-litigants – Friedel from Namibia, Rosanna from Sri Lanka and Raven from Barbados – as they take their governments to court over the colonial-era laws that still criminalise same-sex intimacy across 60+ countries. The film premiered at BFI Flare in March to a standing ovation and five-star reviews in Screen Daily and will be screening with a selection of queer short films on Sunday July 12 from 5.15pm at Cinema Nova. Our special guest was James Lewis online from London who is the codirector of ‘Out Laws’ and the co-founder of The Good Side and Head of Productions, where he steers the agency's film work. James has 20 years of experience as a producer in TV news, branded content and impact documentary filmmaking. ‘Out Laws’ is James' first feature documentary and is a result of a decade working to support the decriminalisation movement and provided excellent insight and context into this must-see documentary. We followed that up with reviews of two fantastic short films that are also on offer at this year's MDFF; “Sheesh, A Taylor Love Story” that documents Filipino Taylor Swift impersonator Taylor Sheesh and explores how her drag performances have transformed Swiftie fandom into a movement of joy, empowerment, and belonging; and ‘The Last Closet' which is directed by Reese Leigh and explores why the AFL remained the last major sports league without an openly queer male player, and examines inclusion within Australian sports. The post Melbourne Documentary Film Festival (MDFF) with special guest James Lewis for ‘Out Laws’ appeared first on Out Takes.

Justin Huhn, Founder and Publisher of the Uranium Insider, joins me for yet another very comprehensive macro update on the supply and demand fundamentals for uranium and the nuclear fuel sector.  Justin provides some boots-on-the-ground feedback, after just recently attending the  WNFM 52nd Annual Meeting and International Conference on Nuclear Fuel in Scottsdale, Arizona. We discuss primary versus secondary demand, how the longer-term contracting cycle is setting up with utility companies, different bottlenecks in the nuclear fuel cycle, and how he is positioning in the uranium equities that feed the front-end of that supply chain.   This is a longer-format discussion building upon our prior conversations throughout 2024 and 2025, because even more key macro news and company developments continue to be announced in the nuclear and uranium sector.   We start off reviewing the Primary Demand drivers for uranium from the existing global fleet of nuclear reactors, which is augmented by the many reactor life extensions and restarts, as well as all the new reactors coming online over the next decade that are under construction or planned.  The investing case for uranium bulls is compelling even with conservative modeling on this primary demand out for the next 5-10 years.   Next we layer on the various aspects of Secondary Demand that are harder to model,  but will definitely have an additive effect on overall global uranium demand:   Financial demand from entities like the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust, Yellowcake, hedge funds, institutional buyers, etc… Sovereign stockpiles and strategic reserves Utility companies inventory stockpiles Small Modular Reactors (SMRs) demand Military demand   Next we transition over the supply side of the equation focusing on the uranium mining companies. We've seen a flurry of news the last couple years out of the U308 producers, many of which have been struggling to ramp up production. Justin unpacks his outlook on mined supply from Kazatomprom, the largest uranium swing producer in Kazakhstan, the slow ramp up of Uzbekistan production, missed guidance last year from Canadian senior uranium producer Cameco (CCO.V) (CCJ), and the slow but steady ramp up of US producers. Each country and the producing entities have had a series of setbacks and challenges to hit their annual guidance, which has kept supply and inventories tight.     Next we point out that large development projects in the Athabasca Basin of Canada, like the Phoenix Project held by Denison Mines (TSX: DML) (NYSE: DNN), and in specific the importance of the Arrow Project from NexGen Energy (TSX: NXE) (NYSE: NXE), seeing their production timelines get pushed back to 2030 or later. There is very little new supply coming online globally, with the exception of some smaller production out of the US, Namibia, and Australian producers. All of this points to a much more constrained output from global uranium producers, even in face of growing uranium demand.   Justin weighs in on the importance of seeing more developers and explorers move their projects forward, and that the exploration stocks in particular have been left for dead by investors and represent compelling value propositions in this current environment.   Wrapping up we discuss the utility and diversification with some of the sector ETFs like (URA), (URNM), (URNJ), and (NUKZ), and the interesting potential buy-the-dip moment in the nuclear stocks, while the markets are quiet with less speculative participation.   Click here to visit the Uranium Insider website.     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.

Die bekende arbeidsdeskundige Herbert Jauch het sy nuutste boek, “Workers, Trade Unions and Politics in Namibia”, bekendgestel. Dit ondersoek hoe werkers georganiseer en uitbuiting teengestaan het ondanks die verbod en onderdrukking van vakbonde voor die 1980's, en ondersoek die rol wat vakbonde in die stryd om onafhanklikheid gespeel het. In 'n onderhoud met Kosmos 94.1 Nuus voer Jauch aan dat Namibiese vakbonde nou voor die uitdaging staan om hulself te herontdek om relevant te bly vir 'n nuwe generasie werkers.

Interview with Heye Daun, President & CEO of Koryx CopperOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/koryx-copper-inc-tsxvkry-institutional-capital-backs-haib-development-pfs-by-year-end-9455Recording date: 4th June 2026Koryx Copper is advancing the Haib copper-molybdenum-gold project in Namibia into what could become one of the world's significant long-life copper operations. The company is targeting annual production of approximately 120,000 tonnes of copper, with a mine life exceeding 30 years, positioning Haib among a limited group of large-scale development-stage projects globally.A major shift in the project's economics comes from the introduction of coarse particle flotation (CPF), a proven processing technology that enables early rejection of about 25% of low-grade material while losing only a small fraction of contained copper. This significantly increases the effective grade of processed ore, lifting copper equivalent grades to around 0.5% in the first decade—well above historical perceptions of Haib as a low-grade deposit.Koryx has also simplified the flowsheet by eliminating heap leaching and moving to a fully flotation-based system. This change not only reduces operational complexity but allows recovery of molybdenum and gold byproducts, adding roughly 15% to project value. Combined with an improved strip ratio and optimized mine plan, these enhancements are expected to increase net present value and key economic metrics by 20–30%.The project will require an estimated $1.8 billion in capital expenditure, making a strategic partnership the most likely development path. Koryx is actively engaging potential partners, including major mining companies, commodity traders, and institutional investors, with joint ventures or acquisition scenarios viewed as probable outcomes.Located in Namibia, a stable and mining-friendly jurisdiction, Haib benefits from established infrastructure, regulatory clarity, and access to power and water resources. With global copper demand rising due to electrification trends and limited new supply, Haib's scale, improved economics, and long mine life position it as a compelling asset in the evolving copper market.View Koryx Copper's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/koryx-copperSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Probst, Carsten www.deutschlandfunkkultur.de, Fazit

Dr Seth Berkley is an epidemiologist and global health leader whose career has been shaped by one central problem: vaccines save lives, but only if people can actually get them. His 40-year career has spanned the global, from helping to build Uganda's first HIV surveillance system and founding the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative; to leading Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance for more than a decade – overseeing the immunisation of hundreds of millions of children worldwide. And when COVID-19 struck, Seth co-founded COVAX, the global initiative designed to stop wealthy nations monopolising vaccines. In conversation with Professor Jim Al-Khalili, Seth discusses the highs and lows of his globe-trotting career - from saving millions of young lives through vaccine distribution, to setting his own shattered leg after a climbing accident in Namibia - and addresses the huge challenge of tackling vaccine scepticism.

Today Kayla Fratt is joined by Calum O'Flaherty and Dr. Tim Hofmann from the Cheetah Conservation Fund about to discuss livestock guardian dogs, cheetahs, and a very unique approach snake avoidance training. Snake bites are a huge problem in Namibia. With CCF losing upwards of 10% of their guardian dogs each year to snake bites. CCFs newest approach in how they train their livestock guardian puppies to avoid snakes could be a huge game changer not only for their dogs, but for guardian dogs everywhere.

Following my recent pieces on Namibia, several readers got in touch asking pretty much the same question: Fine. But how do you actually invest there?Frontier markets are notoriously difficult to access. Interesting companies are privately owned, illiquid, unlisted or buried on obscure exchanges your broker has never heard of, or they carry their own small company risk that does not reflect the broader themes of the country.To try and answer the question properly, I spoke to economist Rowland Brown, founder of Cirrus Capital, the country's largest stockbroker, to discuss the best ways to invest in Namibia and where he sees the biggest opportunities.The full interview follows, but here are 7 things that stood out to me.1. Namibia's growth could accelerate dramaticallyNamibia has averaged around 4.5% annual growth since independence in 1990. But Brown thinks the next decade could look very different. The reason is oil.Offshore discoveries by majors such as Shell plc and TotalEnergies could transform the country's fiscal position. Brown estimates that production of 450,000 barrels per day by 2030 could increase government revenues by roughly 60%, which is quite frankly an astonishing number.Namibia today has a population of roughly 3 million people. It is rich in uranium, diamonds, copper, gold and fisheries. Add large-scale oil production and the country starts to look strategically very important.2. The banks are surprisingly attractiveOne thing I had not appreciated before speaking to Brown was how profitable Namibian banks are. According to him, the major listed banks are producing returns on equity of roughly 20-30%, while trading on earnings multiples of only four to five times.The problem is that these banks are listed only on the Namibian Stock Exchange, meaning overseas investors generally need a local broker to access them.The main players include Standard Bank Namibia, First National Bank Namibia and Capricorn GroupBrown is particularly positive on Standard Bank Namibia because of its positioning for both the uranium and oil industries. Chinese involvement in Namibian uranium mining has also strengthened relationships and financing channels there.3. But there is also a way to buy Namibian government debtThis was another thing I did not know. There is an exchange traded Namibian government bond index called STXNAM, tradable in Johannesburg.Namibian government debt currently yields around 12%, while inflation is around 3%, according to Brown.That obviously comes with frontier-market risk, but Namibia's debt position is arguably stronger than many developed countries. Roughly 80% of the debt is domestically owned, largely by pension funds and banks.Unlike other countries I could mention, Namibia has not yet completely financialised itself into oblivion. Ahem.If you live in a third world country such as the UK, I urge you to own gold or silver. The pound will be further devalued, as will the euro and dollar. The bullion dealer I use and recommend is The Pure Gold Company. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe. More here.4. Uranium remains one of the biggest long-term themesNamibia is already the world's third-largest uranium producer - a lot of that uranium is at the margin. China has a role to play in this. Chinese investors came into Namibian uranium aggressively after Fukushima , when uranium prices were deeply depressed and western capital had largely disappeared.With uranium prices having recovered, those investments are working. We discussed various companies operating in Namibia including Paladin and Deep Yellow, the problem is that many of them are multi-jurisdictional, so you don't get the pure country play. ASX-listed Bannerman Energy (ASX:BMN) is the closest to being a near-pure Namibia uranium play.5. Oil exposure is harder than you thinkAs with uranium, the oil frustration is that the obvious opportunities are often buried inside giant conglomerates.Brown mentioned Sintana Energy (SEI.V), Hosken Consolidated Investments (HCI), which holds a near-50% stake in London-based, privately owned Impact Oil & Gas, which owns significant exploration rights in the Venus discovery offshore Namibia, and Reconnaissance Energy Africa (RECO.V). ReconAfrica is a speculative onshore exploration story and Brown was careful to stress that it remains high risk.6. Copper may ultimately become the biggest storyOne company we discussed at length was Koryx Copper (KRY.V), which is now a development story rather than a speculative discovery punt.The project benefits from simple geology and open-pit potential, good access to roads and ports, nearby power and water infrastructure and significant associated goldBrown repeatedly emphasised on management quality, and I actually met the boss too while I was out there - Heye Dawn - an impressive man. Junior mining is littered with “lifestyle companies”. This is not one of those situations, though it remains speculative mining investment and is vulnerable to falling copper prices, being quite low grade. But I am quite bullish about copper, as you know.7. The currency question is fascinatingNamibia's currency is pegged to the South African rand. The rand is not exactly the Swiss franc.But Brown made an interesting point: without the peg, Namibia's currency would probably be wildly volatile because of the country's dependence on commodity exports. So the peg may actually make Namibia more investable, not less.Longer term, if oil revenues become large enough, Namibia could gain greater flexibility, perhaps moving towards some form of trade-weighted currency basket more heavily linked to the US dollar.That is speculative for now, albeit interesting.Anyway, enough from me.The full interview with Rowland Brown follows. For those who want to go deeper into the weeds on Namibia, uranium, copper, oil, banks and frontier-market investing, I recommend you listen. Brown knows his onions. And you can contact Rowland via Cirrus Capital.One thing becomes very clear very quickly. Namibia may still be a small frontier market, but it no longer feels peripheral.Thank you for being a subscriber to The Flying Frisby.Until next time,Dominic This is a public episode.

The future of geoscience is being shaped by our students. In this episode host Joy Carter showcases two top student entries. We're diving into emerging technologies and exploring how they may shape our industry in the years ahead. First we are featuring the first place team from the University of Toronto in Canada about a topic on everyone's mind these days, artificial intelligence. This is the third and final episode highlighting the SEG 2025 Student Podcast Challenge and we finish it with the team from the University of Namibia and their take on the 'Mineral Mindset'. SEG 2026 Student Podcast ChallengeChapter 1: The Evolution of Mineral Exploration Tools & AI's Role in the FutureUniversity of TorontoHost Eve CarrothersIn this episode of Geochronicles, host Eve Carrothers, a master's student in economic geology at the University of Toronto, explores how new tools in mineral exploration often face scepticism before becoming standard practice, drawing parallels between early geophysical and geochemical instruments and the current debate surrounding Artificial Intelligence. Joined by Professors Andrei Swidinsky (geophysics) and Dan Gregory (geochemistry), Eve discusses the historical reception of tools like magnetometers, gravimeters, and petrographic microscopes, showing how resistance to change has long been part of the geoscientific journey. The conversation then shifts to AI, examining how it mirrors the same cycle of doubt and eventual acceptance seen with past innovations. The guests share their thoughts on how AI may transform mineral exploration in the coming decades, while also offering advice to geoscientists who may be hesitant to adopt it. The episode encourages a thoughtful, informed approach to new technology, reminding listeners that many of today's essential tools were once met with uncertainty. This podcast features the song “Beer Blues” by Koi-discovery, available under a Creative Commons Universal Licence.Chapter 2: The Mineral MindsetUniversity of NamibiaHost Ama Geingoswith Guests  Senamile Dlamini, Ndinelago Johannes, Obey Haufiku, Eli Kaushiningwa, Eunice KamoshoThe Mineral Mindset podcast, presented by the UNAM Society of Economic Geologists Student Chapter, explores the rising demand for lithium, cobalt, and rare earth elements. The discussion highlights how these critical minerals power modern technologies, the role of new exploration methods like AI and drone technology, and the environmental challenges associated with mining. Future trends, including recycling, urban mining, and alternative resources, are also examined. The discussion also underscores the geopolitical and economic implications of the growing demand for critical minerals, as nations and industries compete for access to these essential resources. Speakers stress the need for responsible mining practices, stricter regulations, and government-industry collaboration to ensure long-term sustainability. As the world transitions toward greener energy and advanced technologies, the role of geologists and mining professionals becomes even more crucial in balancing resource extraction with environmental stewardship.  Moreover, insights into sustainable mining practices, such as gas turbines, water treatment, and eco-friendly extraction methods are discussed. Finally, episode wraps up with a call to action, encouraging young geologists to embrace innovation and drive positive change in the field.  Come join us in Salt Lake City, Utah for SEG 2026, September 30th to October 3rd. You can expect world-class technical content, including iconic ore deposits and the geological processes of North American Cordillera. The program balances applied case studies, framework geology, and technological innovation. The conference offers a unique opportunity to connect, learn, and help shape the future of economic geology. See you there.

The practice of healthcare is inherently powerful, and our patients are vulnerable to our power. Though power can be abused, the righteous use of power, for the benefit of the vulnerable, is profoundly Christlike. We will explore the lessons of power which help us understand our roles, including the fundamental nature of professionalism and key kingdom strategies of healthcare missions.

Die Dorsland — the Thirstland — is part of the Kalahari that has an interesting history when it comes to pastoralists. The San didn't call it the Thirstland, for them it wasn't a barrier but part of a network of seasonal resource nodes. They would navigate the dry spans using sip-wells, inserting long, hollow reeds deep into the damp sand, use grass filters, and literally suck water up to store in hollowed-out ostrich eggshells buried along transit routes for future journeys. Around 2,000 to 2,500 years ago, a massive economic shift occurred when groups in northern Botswana acquired livestock, sheep and later cattle, transitioning from hunter-gatherers to pastoralists—becoming the Khoekhoe. Archaeological evidence indicates the Khoekhoe moved out of the northern Botswana/Zambezi region and split. One major migration route skirted the western edge of the Kalahari desert, moving down through modern-day Namibia and into the Northern and Western Cape with the Kalahari was the geographic pivot around which this entire pastoralist expansion rotated. Moving large herds of sheep and cattle through a Thirstland required moving between reliable pans and riverbeds like the Nossob, Auob, and Molopo rivers. They transformed the Kalahari from a hunter-gatherer landscape into a series of strategic grazing corridors. The Dorsland Trekkers were going to reverse that course to some extent, using the north western Botswana region to reach Namibia, and eventually, Angola. The Khoekhoe like the Voortrekkers, appreciated their freedom, moving in small extended family groups, their mobility part of their world-view. Instead of heading north west like the trekkers, they had headed south west for hundreds of years, arriving in Southern Africa about 2400 years ago. That was about the time parts of south-central Africa experienced a shift in rainfall, forests and dense woodlands expanded or contracted, the tsetse belts moved. If you were an early pastoralist whose entire wealth, diet, and social structure depended on cattle and sheep, a shifting tsetse belt was an existential threat. The arid margins of the Kalahari, the Namib, and the Karoo environments further south were too dry for the tsetse fly. The Karoo was a safe haven for livestock, the Namib too dessicated. In high-rainfall, tropical areas, grass grows fast but loses its nutritional value in winter, it becomes sourveld. In more arid regions like the fringes of the Kalahari and the Karoo the grass grows slower but retains its high mineral and protein content year-round, even when dry - it is sweetveld. To a sheep or cow, the arid south was an open buffet of incredibly nutritious feed. The Khoekhoe migration pushed into the Western Cape, where they hit a completely different climate zone, the winter rainfall region, so just as the summer rainfall area dried out, the Cape valleys were greening up. But where the trekkers moved northwards taking a decade and arrived Angola in 1880, the Khoekhoe migrations took hundreds of years. A gradual seeping south if you like. After the Khoekhoe, and before the Boers, the people of the Ngami area near the Okavango Delta were known as the Khwebe - from the word Kwe which simply means “people”. They dwelled close to a geographical anomaly in Botswana - the Khwebe Hills — Botswana is one of the flattest countries on earth. The Khwebe hills are a windy place and Khwebe mythology speaks of the Gas Bird which lives in a certain baobab near the upper Okavango River valley. If you listen closely, you can hear his hissing voice inside the tree. The mythology is linked to earlier San cosmology, where the word !Khwe means wind — and where the wind is a supernatural being.

Henno Martin and Hermann Korn were two German-born geologists conducting research in present-day Namibia when World War II broke out. Instead of facing internment or being forced into a war they did not believe in, these two friends loaded up a truck with their dog Otto and some basic survival supplies and set out to escape the war by surviving off the land in the harsh Namib desert.
