Earlier this year, Hub Cymru Africa and Sub-Sahara Advisory Panel held a photography competition as part of our ongoing "Reframing the Narrative" campaign.

Interview with Chris Reed, CEO of Neometals (ASX:NMT), and Accompanied by Darren Townsend, Chief Development Officer, and David Robinson, General Manager.Neometals' management team's track record of success extends to the Mt. Marion Lithium Project, where they timed their exit to a tee, selling their 13.8% stake for AU$103.8m. We've interviewed them several times. Each time, they've described a project that fits neatly into a green, profitable narrative. It's a cookie-cutter approach of finding value that's gone under the radar, acquiring it for a steal, and developing it efficiently. We're amazed the market hasn't clocked the potential of Neometals yet, with their market cap valued at less than the cash they currently hold, irrespective of their project portfolio.We've previously questioned Neometals' marketing strategy; however, today we're questioning its latest in a long line of green projects. As of last week, Neometals has entered an agreement with unlisted (but public) Scandinavian mineral development company, Critical Metals, to consider developing a recycling facility to recover and process high- grade vanadium products from vanadium-bearing steel by-product in Scandinavia. The green component has already been ticked off! The by-product is slag, not tailings, though we'll get into that in a moment.So, what exactly does the agreement entail? Reed states that what Neometals believes it has acquired is a "call option to acquire what is the world's largest stockpile of high-grade vanadium slags." The 27-month consideration period will allow Neometals to conduct its extensive dude diligence on the potential vanadium plant, which will result in a feasibility study to be completed by 31st December 2022. At this point, a final investment decision will be made. If Neometals agrees to go ahead, the company will enter into a 50/50 arrangement, with the certainty of a supply agreement from SSAP, the largest fuel maker in Scandinavia. Total CAPEX prior to FID will be A$5ML: a figure Neometals can easily afford, and one that fits into the project generator narrative the company has been pushing.Slag vs tailings? Tailings is the waste rock at a mine after the raw ore has been processed to remove the metal, whereas slag is a glass-like by-product left over after a desired metal has been smelted from its raw ore. The process of dealing with the slag is not only immensely economic but is also a remediation process, as the glass itself will change colour and no longer be a sea-adjacent eyesore.What is the upside in terms of revenue? The steel slag with vanadium content has a standard benchmark vanadium grade of 3.9% V2O5, 2-3X higher than any producer can make in a concentrate before a similar level of processing. There is no mining cost, no crushing plant, no grinding plant, no magnetic gravity separation plant, and no kilns for the traditional salt-roast-leach process. 50% of the CAPEX had been wiped out straight away. Moreover, while vanadium is a volatile commodity that hasn't had its best few years, the macro story, including fundamental demand for stainless steel, and the potential growth of VRFBs, still places vanadium as a promising commodity.Once the process is completed, what happens to the inner pile of largely calcium/iron-bearing residues? Reed states Neometals will take ownership and either safely dispose of it, or reinsert it back into the front end of the steelmaking process. The green thematic is consistent throughout Neometals' operations.Reed actually sees COVID-19 as the element that forced Neometals and Critical Metals to get the deal over the line when it did but also says it will have little impact on operations, especially considering mining is considered an essential service, and the population density of Australia is low.

För två veckor sedan utsattes moskén i Bredäng för skadegörelse och rasistiskt klotter och exemplen är många på hot mot moskéer. Vad krävs för att trygga säkerheten? Hör Mustafa Tumturk från Sveriges muslimska råd och Per Olsson Fridh, statssekreterare på Kulturdepartementet. Gud skulle bli glad om romerna fick en ursäktDet säger Daniel Ganga, romsk ortodox präst. I århundraden utnyttjades romerna i Rumänien som slavar av den ortodoxa kyrkan. Nu drivs frågan om en ursäkt från kyrkan, som man menar skulle betyda mycket för romernas situation i landet. Vår reporter Henrik Dammberg har besökt Rumänien. Hör också EU-parlamentarikern Soraya Post om vad en ursäkt skulle betyda. Rockbandet Kent får en egen mässaPå söndag hålls en hel mässa i Danderyds kyrka som ägnas åt rockbandet Kents musik. Hör komminister Jennie Wall om vad Kent har med kristen tro att göra. Shamaner tar plats på den politiska scenen i BoliviaI Bolivia har shamaner från den indianska kulturen fått en helt ny politisk roll och betydelse under president Evo Morales, som själv har indianskt ursprung. Vi får besök av Anders Burman, socialantropolog och författare till en ny bok om shamanaktivismen i Bolivia.
It's hard being the class clown, always pretending to be happy and jolly. That nothing in the world can affect you, that you're everyone's friend. Sometimes though... Sometimes it just gets to you. Obviously as we're professional podcasters and radio show presenters you won't be able to notice, but just bear that in mind.But however you listen to the show - be it through Youtube, itunes or our wesbite you're guaranteed an excellent show especially as our Super-Special Guest is Andrew Hewson from Hewson Consultants! We were a bit selfish in our interview with him and whilst we knew all of our listeners were desperate for his in depth knowledge on SSAP 13 (Accounting for Research and Development), we decided to move away from the Accountancy questions and instead asked him about the good old days of gaming. The days when you could send a cheque through the post and 7-10 business days later you'd receive a cassette through the post with a game on it. The days when you could play Paradroid, Uridium or Pinball Dreams. The days before your heart had been ripped out in front of your peers by someone saying the name "Guy Cocker" on stage.Ahem.As well as Andrew (who is writing an excellent book called Hints and Tips for Videogame Pioneers, with a Kickstarter coming soon), we have Science Office, Dr Avatar and Local News. We also answer the question 'What do you do with your close friends?' and perform a live experiment. As long as you're listening to this in November and have an Xbone.Cheerio!Team OLL xKeith Stuart was also on the show.Links:https://twitter.com/HewsonJoystickhttp://www.science-officer.blogspot.co.uk/https://twitter.com/keefstuartTrack list:1.
