Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.Question: My husband and I had a swift match and placement in December. When we were presented with the case, all that was reported for drug use was smoking 12 cigarettes a day. After about a month of trying to get medical records from the hospital for my pediatrician, I discovered my baby's meconium tested positive for meth. This lab test resulted on Monday, and we were released from the hospital the Friday before, so no one told us about this result. The agency got me the medical records and didn't mention them when sending them to me. I was also told the birth mom had prenatal care when the medical records say spotty prenatal care. I was shocked when I came across the lab results. We met both of my son's birth parents a couple of times while in the hospital and had good visits. My husband is usually very good at identifying people on drugs, but he didn't suspect anything was amiss. We met our son's siblings, and they all seemed well cared for. My son also did not appear to go through withdrawals. He was never in the NICU and was released from the hospital 2 days after birth. He was of a healthy weight and had excellent Apgar scores. I know I would have passed on this case if I knew meth was involved and so in a way this is a blessing because I love my son and am so glad we were selected to parent him, but I feel some trust has broken between us and his birth parents. I text them weekly with photos and small updates, but I can't help but feel a little resentful (to both the birth parents and the agency). How do you suggest I deal with this situation?

In this week's long-form, Rick Rule discusses the inherent risks of mining, particularly focusing on the Kamoa-Kakula complex and its operational challenges recently. He emphasizes the importance of understanding market perceptions and individual risk tolerance when investing in mining stocks. The discussion also touches on the potential tightening of the copper market due to supply issues and the impact of economic policies on resource investments. Additionally, Rule shares insights on inflation, deflation, and the dynamics of the gold market, suggesting that we may be in the early stages of a bull market for precious metals. He discusses the dynamics of the precious metals market, focusing on the movement of stocks, mergers and acquisitions in gold mining, and the evolving U.S. mining policy.

Interview with Victor Cantore, President & CEO of Amex Exploration Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/amex-exploration-tsxvamx-quebec-gold-developer-evaluates-pfs-option-for-16moz-perron-project-6683Recording date: 28th May 2025AMEX Exploration Inc. (TSXV:AMX) has delivered a transformational resource upgrade that positions the company for rapid advancement to gold production in Quebec's prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt. The updated mineral resource estimate reveals 1.615 million ounces in measured and indicated categories at 6.14 g/t, representing a remarkable 172% increase over the 2024 estimate with a 43% grade improvement.The flagship Champagne Zone forms the production core with 831,000 ounces at an exceptional 16.20 g/t, supported by an additional 128,000 inferred ounces at 9.83 g/t. This high-grade foundation enables CEO Victor Cantore's strategic pivot toward cash flow generation while maintaining exploration activities across 197 square kilometers of prospective land.AMEX's production strategy leverages unique advantages that distinguish it from typical development projects. Located near the historic mining town of Normétal, the project benefits from existing infrastructure, skilled workforce, and multiple toll milling options throughout the region. The underground mining approach requires minimal surface infrastructure, accelerating permitting timelines compared to open-pit operations.Management has outlined an aggressive two-year timeline to production, beginning with an updated preliminary economic assessment within 60 days, followed by a feasibility study focused on toll milling operations. This phased approach generates early cash flows while advancing full mine development, supporting Cantore's anti-dilutive growth model that minimizes shareholder dilution through operational cash flow rather than repeated equity raises.Strategic validation comes through Eldorado Gold's 9.9% ownership, providing technical expertise from their similar high-grade Lamaque operation. The partnership strengthens AMEX's transition from exploration to production while maintaining management independence.With total resources of 2.313 million ounces and exceptional grades enabling economic toll milling across wide geographic areas, AMEX exemplifies the industry trend toward high-grade, capital-efficient operations that maximize returns per ounce while building sustainable long-term cash flows.View AMEX Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/amex-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

We all have a God-given need to belong, but does that mean finding a sphere in which we consistently feel affirmed? We also all long, at some level, to be fully known, but does that mean we must unveil our deepest and most shameful secrets? In this episode, guest Dr. Sandra Dalton-Smith discusses these issues along with uncomfortable but necessary set-up seasons, how our trust in God impacts our journeys, how that trust deepens over time, and the most important step we can take in our growth and confidence in ourselves and our calling. Resource referenced: Being Fully Known: The Joyful Satisfaction of Beholding, Becoming, and Belonging by Sandra Dalton-Smith Topics covered: The difference between being known and being exposed The best way to respond to long "set-up" seasons Biblical characters God intentionally trained for greatness How "Beholding" God leads to increased belonging Where in your life do you feel safe to be emotionally honest—and where do you feel the need to hide? Are there signs of emotional fatigue showing up in your body, relationships, or spiritual life? How might God be inviting you to rest? What fears or past experiences might be holding you back from letting others—or God—truly know you? Have you experienced a “set apart” season? Looking back, how did God use that time to shape or strengthen you? How does the idea of “belonging” resonate with you right now? Do you feel like you’re striving to fit in, or are you resting in God’s acceptance? What might it look like for you to intentionally behold God this week—and how could that impact how you see yourself and others?

Compass, episode 16Our previous interview: www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/silver-companies-merging-to-gain-scale-in-rising-market-7145Recording date: 20 May 2025Resource exploration companies operating in northern regions like Canada and Alaska follow a predictable seasonal pattern that creates potential investment opportunities for informed investors. According to experts Samuel Pelaez and Derek Macpherson from Olive Resource Capital, these "seasonal explorers" operate primarily during summer months due to weather constraints, creating a predictable annual cycle in both operations and stock performance.The cycle begins in late spring (May) when companies announce exploration programs and mobilize crews. Summer (June-August) brings active exploration with ongoing drilling programs and preliminary updates. By fall (September-November), companies release results from summer programs, often coinciding with major industry conferences. Winter and spring (December-April) see limited operational activity and news flow, typically resulting in declining share prices.A significant factor influencing this pattern is the structure of flow-through funding in Canada. Flow-through funds, which provide tax advantages to investors, often conduct raises in the fall that must be deployed by year-end. These investments typically have a four-month hold period, creating selling pressure around April when funds liquidate positions to return capital to investors.This selling pressure, combined with the natural lull in news flow during spring, creates potential buying opportunities for investors who understand the pattern. The experts suggest that 2025 presents unique circumstances, with the resource sector having stronger momentum than in previous years, particularly in copper and gold.For investors looking to capitalize on these patterns, the experts recommend identifying companies operating in areas with defined seasonal constraints, focusing on early-stage companies where the pattern is more pronounced, and considering companies with multiple assets that can maintain year-round news flow.Currently (May 2025), the experts suggest this may be an opportune time for entry positions in seasonal explorers, particularly in gold and copper, with potential exit opportunities in the fall when exploration results are reported.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Click here to send us a topic idea or question for Weekend Wisdom.Are you a professional working with kinship caregivers? You need to listen to this interview with Dr. Tyreasa Washington, is a nationally and internationally recognized scholar specializing in kinship care families (e.g., grandparents raising grandchildren). She is a Distinguished Senior Scholar for Child Welfare at Child Trends, the leading research organization in the United States focused solely on improving the lives of children, youth, and families.In this episode, we discuss:Advantages of keeping children with extended family when their parents are not able to raise them.How do kids who are raised temporarily or permanently by relatives fare compared to kids placed with unknown foster parents?One of the biggest questions we receive from professionals is how to engage kinship caregivers. They tell us that they set up programs to support kinship caregivers, but few show up. This seems universal. Why does this happen?We also hear about institutional trauma-(law enforcement struggles/foster care system struggles- leads to lack of trust--not feeling safe in their community, not trusting DSS.) How does this impact kinship caregivers? How does it impact those of us trying to serve them?What types of support are the most helpful?What are some cultural differences you've observed in Black relatives raising children within the family, and how do these differences impact how professionals interact with kin raising children?What have you found in your research on the impact of caregiving on the health of kinship caregivers?Need for training for kinship caregivers.How can professionals support self-care with folks who are so busy just getting by?Support the showPlease leave us a rating or review.

What keeps us addicted to human approval? In this episode of Light + Truth, John Piper opens John 5:30–47 to expose the restless craving for praise and how Christ sets us free.
In Psalm 13, David cries out, “How long, O Lord?”—a question that echoes in the hearts of many who find themselves weighed down by sorrow, pain, and unanswered prayers. This sermon explores how Psalm 13 gives voice to real anguish while also pointing us to a hope that endures. If you're facing a long trial, feeling forgotten by God, or struggling to hold on, this reflection on lament, prayer, and trust will help you find comfort not in easy answers, but in the steadfast love of the Lord. Psalm 13 (ESV)1 How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me?2 How long must I take counsel in my soul and have sorrow in my heart all the day?How long shall my enemy be exalted over me?3 Consider and answer me, O Lord my God; light up my eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death,4 lest my enemy say, “I have prevailed over him,” lest my foes rejoice because I am shaken.5 But I have trusted in your steadfast love; my heart shall rejoice in your salvation.6 I will sing to the Lord, because he has dealt bountifully with me.

Interview with Simon Marcotte, President & CEO of Northern Superior Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/northern-superior-resources-tsxvsup-consolidating-next-big-gold-camp-6910Recording date: 15th May 2025Northern Superior Resources (SUP) presents a compelling investment opportunity through its strategic consolidation of the Chibougamou Gold Camp in Quebec. The company has successfully transformed what was once five separate companies into a two-player district alongside major partner IAMGold, creating critical mass around a combined 12.4 million ounce resource base.The investment thesis centers on Northern Superior's superior asset quality at Filibert, which offers 15-18% higher grades (1.1 g/t) compared to IAMGold's flagship Nelligan deposit (0.95 g/t). More importantly, optimization analysis demonstrates that minor cut-off adjustments could improve Filibert's grade by 40% while retaining 90% of the ounces. This grade advantage becomes crucial for bulk tonnage operations where early cash flow determines project viability and payback periods.Recent exploration success reinforces the value proposition. Northern Superior's latest discovery of 18 meters grading 2.5 g/t gold, including 5 meters at 7 g/t, opens significant underground potential beneath existing open pit resources. This follows the successful model at Detour Lake, where underground expansion has delivered exceptional profitability through higher-grade material.The timing is optimal. IAMGold is approaching "cruise control" at their Côte Lake operation and management has indicated their focus will shift to Chibougamou development, targeting 15+ million ounces across the camp. With all assets within trucking distance and designed to feed a central processing facility, the camp's proximity economics create substantial synergies.Multiple value creation paths exist: organic development, optimization partnerships with IAMGold, or potential takeout as the camp advances toward development. Given junior gold stocks trading at historic lows relative to gold prices and the structural advantages Northern Superior has built within this emerging district, the company offers leveraged exposure to both the macro gold thesis and micro execution excellence.—View Nothern Superior Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/northern-superior-resources-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
