Kairos Minerals Ltd managing director Dr Peter Turner talked with Proactive about the company's Mt York Gold Project in Western Australia's Pilbara region. Turner outlined why the company is enthusiastic about the asset, highlighting the 1.4 million ounce gold resource, which he said is largely hosted in a single open pit with clean metallurgy. “There's enormous upside in terms of the resource,” he said, pointing to ongoing technical work and a key land access deal with Pilbara Minerals as drivers for growth. He noted that the mineralisation is continuous over three kilometres and spans three key prospects: Main Hill, Breccia Hill, and Gossan Hill. Drilling along this corridor has consistently intersected gold, with further upside potential extending 1.5 kilometres onto neighbouring ground recently secured from Pilbara Minerals. Kairos is well funded, with A$12.4 million in the bank and a further A$10 million expected from its deal with Pilbara Minerals. These funds will support an extensive 20,000–30,000 metre drill program, targeting both resource growth and conversion of inferred resources to indicated. Turner said a priority focus is the Main Hill extension, with plans to conduct detailed diamond drilling and incorporate any new results into a future resource update. He also said that the company is entering a pivotal period: “We feel that 2025 is probably our kairos moment.” The year ahead will include new drill results, feasibility progress, and a resource update. Turner invited viewers to watch the company's latest corporate video for a concise overview of Kairos' strategy and current valuation.

In the first edition of KWM's new "It's Public" podcast, M&A partners Will Heath, Antonella Pacitti, Heath Lewis, and Paul Schroder discuss why 2025 is shaping up as a promising year for resources M&A. Their discussion covers the energy transition and uncertainty themes driving consolidation, the regulatory and dealmaking environment, geopolitical and trade uncertainty, and the financing and investment trends all fuelling resources dealmaking.Key Topics Covered:Energy Transition and Uncertainty: The long-term energy transition and shorter-term uncertainty are driving consolidation in the resources sector, particularly in markets like Australia with abundant transition resources.Current Landscape and Consolidation Trends: Discussion on mega deals, opportunism sparked by distressed assets, and the regulatory and dealmaking environment.Gold and Lithium: Insights into the consolidation theme in gold and lithium M&A, including the all-scrip takeover of Latin resources by Pilbara minerals.Coal and Other Deals: The demand for coal, private capital filling funding gaps, and the competitive Anglo coal sale process.Geopolitical and Trade Uncertainty: The impact of geopolitical uncertainty on resources deals and the importance of critical mineral supply.Regulatory Environment: The need for efficient and fair processes around foreign investment, anti-trust, and other regulatory approvals.Cross-Border Deals and Capital: The role of private equity, sovereign wealth funds, and the influx of Canadian companies raising capital on the ASX.Transcript Excerpt:Will Heath: "We believe it's going to be a big year for resources M&A, with a couple of big themes dominating the mining M&A landscape. The first and long arc is the energy transition, and the second and shorter arc is uncertainty. Both drivers favour markets like Australia, with abundant transition resources like copper and other crucial critical minerals, as well as in the uncertainty scope hedge commodities like gold."Hosts and Guests:Will Heath: M&A PartnerAntonella Pacitti: M&A PartnerHeath Lewis: M&A PartnerPaul Schroder: M&A Partner

We discuss the implications of this significant find, including its potential to reshape our understanding of crust formation and the environments conducive to early microbial life.Water Ice on the MoonWe also delve into exciting new research suggesting that water ice may be found just centimeters below the lunar surface across a much larger area of the Moon's polar regions than previously believed.

Novo Resources Corp is preparing to identify drill targets at the John Bull and Tibooburra gold projects in New South Wales following extensive geochemical sampling. The company has collected 340 soil and 63 rock chip samples over a 1.3-kilometre trend at John Bull, while 962 soil and rock chip samples were gathered across a 2.8-kilometre trend at Tibooburra's Clone prospect. Results from the sampling are expected by mid-March 2025 and will be used to refine drill targets with high mineralisation potential. Novo has also conducted an assessment of historical data and remote geophysics at the Toolunga Project in Western Australia, identifying multiple targets for further investigation. Additionally, the company is progressing towards securing the Odette 4 Rocklea exploration application at the Cane River Project, expected to be granted in the second quarter of the 2025 financial year. Novo anticipates potential delays to drilling at its Pilbara projects due to tropical Cyclone Zelia, which could impact operations in the Karratha District, Balla Balla Gold Project and Egina JV area. The company remains focused on advancing its exploration activities and will provide updates as key milestones progress. #NovoResources #GoldExploration #MiningNews #DrillTargets #GeochemicalSampling #JohnBullProject #TibooburraGold #WesternAustralia #PilbaraMining

SpaceTime Series 27 Episode 142*How Mars Got Its MoonsA groundbreaking study suggests that Mars acquired its moons, Phobos and Deimos, after a passing asteroid was torn apart by the planet's gravity. This new hypothesis, based on NASA's supercomputer simulations and published in the journal Icarus, challenges previous theories of their origin, such as capture or major impact. The upcoming Martian Moons Exploration mission by JAXA, with NASA's involvement, aims to further investigate these theories by collecting samples from Phobos.*Starship Test Flight 6SpaceX has successfully completed its sixth test flight of the Starship Mega rocket, overseen by SpaceX CEO Elon Musk and U.S. President-elect Donald Trump. The test included a splashdown of the booster in the Gulf of Mexico and a successful orbital journey of the Starship, which trialled new heat shield materials and descent strategies. This marks the final test for this version of Starship, with an upgraded version expected to fly soon.*Revisiting Earth's Ore DepositsNew research reveals that the largest iron ore deposits in Western Australia's Pilbara are around a billion years younger than previously thought. Using advanced geochronology techniques, scientists have dated these deposits to between 1.1 and 1.4 billion years, reshaping our understanding of Earth's geological history and aiding future exploration efforts.The Science ReportA study suggests that a daily hour-long walk for those over 40 could extend life expectancy by five years. Meanwhile, global plastic waste is projected to double by mid-century, but a combination of policies could reduce it by 90%. Additionally, switching to a vegan diet could lower food costs by 19%, unlike the Mediterranean diet.
