The silver market is entering uncharted territory — and things are moving fast. Over the past few days, several U.S. dealers and refineries have halted silver purchases, sending shockwaves through the entire precious metals industry. Refineries have stopped buying, lease rates have exploded past 100%, and mints are struggling to keep coins flowing. In this episode, hear a candid discussion (on 10/13/2025) with SD Bullion's CEO and COO as they break down what's really happening behind the scenes — and what it could mean for silver prices in the days ahead. Tune in now before the market shifts again.
Welcome to The Refinery.Last week, we opened our study of James's epistle and discovered that he wastes no time in getting straight to the heart of Christian living. With the briefest of introductions, James plunges into the central theme of his letter: how believers are to handle trials, temptations, and persecutions. The Christian life is not an escape from difficulty but a call to endure with faith and perseverance.In our last message, “When Temptation Comes”, we saw how trials are not random interruptions but opportunities for God to shape our faith. Today, we continue with “Candidates for the Crown of Life.” Here, James takes us beyond merely surviving trials—he points us toward the eternal reward God has promised for those who endure.Our key text is James 1:12:“Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.”This verse holds out both a present promise and a future reward. It calls us to endurance, offers us blessing in the here and now, and assures us of a crown in the life to come.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You're important to God, and you're important to us at The Refinery.When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you're concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

A fire swept through Chevron's El Segundo, CA, refinery on October 2, upsetting production of gasoline, jet fuel and diesel. The incident raised fresh concerns about higher prices and highlighted the fragility of the state's refining network, already challenged by years of weak margins, rising regulatory compliance costs and softening gasoline demand. In today's RBN blog, we discuss the immediate impact of the fire and the long-term outlook for California's refining sector.
A massive fire at one of California's largest oil refineries is shaking up gas prices across the Southwest — with some areas already topping $4 per gallon. We break down what happened, why it matters, and how long prices could stay high.

The Christian life is a life of faith, but not of theory—it is meant to be lived out daily. That is why the book of James is such an important letter for us. Unlike Paul, who often writes in-depth theology, James writes about the practical expression of our faith in daily living.James was a half-brother of Jesus, and during Christ's earthly ministry he did not believe. But after the resurrection, James' life was transformed. He rose to become the leader of the Jerusalem church, respected for his wisdom, his prayer life, and his devotion to God. James wrote this letter to Jewish Christians scattered across the Roman world—people facing persecution, hardship, and daily temptations. His purpose was not to give them more doctrine, but to teach them how to live faithfully in the middle of real struggles.And where does he begin? With trials and temptations. James wastes no time in telling believers that faith is not proven in comfort, but in conflict. Our faith must be tested if it is to be trusted.Let's read together James 1:1–4 from the New King James Version.Until next timeStay in the BlessingsI really want to encourage you to be diligent with your Bible study time, because God has so much more for us than we can get from just going to church once or twice a week and hearing someone else talk about the Word.When you spend time with God, your life will change in amazing ways, because God is a Redeemer.Theres nothing thats too hard for Him, and He can make you whole, spirit, soul and body!You're important to God, and you're important to us at The Refinery.When it comes to prayer, we believe that God wants to meet your needs and reveal His promises to you.So whatever you're concerned about and need prayer for we want to be here for you!

Interview with Roshan Pujari, Founder & CEO, Stardust PowerRecording date: 8th September 2025Stardust Power is developing what could become one of America's largest lithium refineries, targeting a massive supply chain gap that represents both national security vulnerability and generational investment opportunity. The Oklahoma-based facility aims to produce 50,000 metric tons of battery-grade lithium carbonate annually when the entire United States currently produces only 20,000 tons.Founded by seasoned entrepreneur Roshan Pujari, who previously established boutique investment firm Vikasa Capital, Stardust identified processing as the critical bottleneck in lithium supply chains. "We really saw that the critical gap in the supply chain for lithium is processing capacity and that's when we founded Stardust Power to address that particular need," Pujari explained.The company's strategic advantage lies in its aggregation model, sourcing feedstock from Argentina, America's Smackover formation, and Canadian lithium fields. This approach aligns with broader industry trends as oil giants Exxon and Chevron enter lithium production. "We also see the economic model moving more towards the oil and gas market where you have local production with central refining," Pujari noted.Stardust has achieved critical development milestones that separate it from typical early-stage projects. The company secured major construction permits through a zero liquid discharge system and completed its FEL-3 engineering study with premier firm Primero USA. "We are already permitted to start major construction," Pujari stated.The project's financial structure leverages proven technology to enable 75-80% debt financing, potentially reducing the $500 million Phase 1 construction to just $100-125 million in equity requirements. Oklahoma has analyzed up to $257 million in state incentives, while major trading houses have expressed interest in purchasing 80-100% of production capacity.With minimal domestic competition and explosive demand growth, Stardust Power represents a rare opportunity to capture processing monopoly returns in America's critical mineral independence strategy.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

California is facing a major fuel crisis as two of its biggest oil refineries prepare to shut down—Phillips 66 in Los Angeles and Valero in Benicia. Experts warn this could cut up to 21% of the state's refining capacity, triggering gasoline shortages and driving prices as high as $8.43 per gallon by 2026.
In this episode of The Unfolding: Presented by The Loveland Foundation Podcast, host Rachel Keener sits down with Jamia Wilson—activist, writer, editor, and Vice President at Random House—for a conversation about the transformative power of storytelling. Jamia speaks to how stories can liberate, build empathy, and reimagine power, while she and Rachel reflect on the wisdom passed down from their parents and ancestors—encouragement, community-mindedness, and joy.Jamia also shares her perspective on self-care: setting boundaries as a way of honoring personal limits, embracing intentional rest, and creating rituals that replenish the spirit. Joy becomes a central thread throughout their discussion—not as something fleeting, but as resistance, healing, and connection.The conversation touches on Jamia's books A Year of Black Joy, which offers 52 practices for cultivating joy, and Make Good Trouble, inspired by John Lewis and the idea of activism rooted in joy. Together, Rachel and Jamia explore how curiosity, gratitude, and joyful defiance can shape not just personal growth, but collective empowerment.This episode is an invitation to rethink the role of joy in your life—not as an afterthought, but as a force for resilience and community.More about Jamia Wilson:Jamia is an award-winning feminist activist, writer, speaker, and podcaster.

California has long gone head-to-head with big oil, leading many of the efforts to curb climate damage caused at the hands of the fossil fuel industry – including spearheading lawsuits against oil companies and pushing fracking bans. But faced with the closure of two state refineries, and rising gas prices, Governor Gavin Newsom has made some major concessions on oil to not only keep the refineries open, but to draft a bill for more drilling in Kern county. We'll talk about California's changing relationship with the oil industry, the state's efforts to phase out fossil fuels, and what's going to happen to gas prices in the meantime. Guests: Severin Borenstein, professor at UC Berkeley's Haas School of Business; faculty director of The Energy Institute at Haas; member, Board of Governors of the California Independent System Operator Lori Wilson, California State Assemblywoman, District 11 Alex Nieves, California transportation reporter, POLITICO Learn more about your ad choices.

It can take more than 15 years to permit and build a new mine in the United States - yet nearly every modern technology we rely on, from smartphones to fighter jets to AI data centers, depends on a steady supply of critical minerals.In this episode, Erik Torenberg is joined in the studio by Turner Caldwell, founder of Mariana Minerals, along with American Dynamism general partner Erin Price-Wright and partner Ryan McEntush.Turner spent nearly a decade at Tesla, working his way upstream from factory design to battery materials and mining. Now, he's building a new kind of mining and refining company - vertically integrated and software-first- designed to meet the demands of our industrial future.We get into why the industry is so broken, what it actually takes to turn rocks into usable materials, and how the U.S. can rebuild its capacity to mine, refine, and manufacture the things that matter most.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Political correspondent Tal Schneider and reporter Sue Surkes join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lands in the US, Schneider discusses the day ahead for the Israeli leader, ahead of his Monday evening meeting with US President Donald Trump in the White House, and the expectations for the announcement of a permanent ceasefire at that point. Schneider looks at the issues that still need to be resolved, including the hostages, aid distribution in Gaza and who will manage Gaza if Hamas is no longer in power. She also discusses the continuing clashes between Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich and IDF Chief of Staff Eyal Zamir, as Smotrich and his supporters accuse Zamir of being too weak in his handling of Gaza and he has lashed back, with their arguments leaked to the media. Surkes looks at what is happening at Haifa's oil refineries after two Iranian missiles hit the plant, killing three workers and creating additional environmental concerns due to pollution from the plant, with calls to shut it down. She also reports on residents from Gaza envelope communities being told by the government to return home in the next weeks and months, although there are still the sounds of war and explosions in their communities.
