Podcasts about strategic investments

TNR Gold Executive Chairman Kirill Klip joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss several important developments shaping the company's growth strategy, including a strategic investment by Altius Minerals and the continued advancement of the Los Azules copper project in Argentina. Klip explained that Altius has acquired a 9.9% strategic stake in TNR Gold, describing the move as a strong endorsement of both the company's long-term direction and the strength of its royalty portfolio. According to Klip, the investment not only enhances TNR Gold's profile within the mining and royalty sectors, but also increases market awareness of the company's broader asset base, including its Shotgun Gold project in Alaska. The discussion also focused on progress at McEwen Copper's Los Azules project, where TNR Gold maintains a net smelter return royalty interest. Klip highlighted recent developments designed to support the project's advancement, including the appointment of Société Générale to assist with arranging project debt financing. He also noted the possibility of a future public listing for McEwen Copper, a move that could create additional visibility and funding opportunities for the asset. Further attention was given to the involvement of Rio Tinto through its Nuton technology venture and the potential for the global mining giant to increase its participation in the Los Azules project. Klip emphasized Argentina's recently implemented RIGI investment framework, saying the initiative creates improved long-term fiscal and legal stability that could make the country increasingly attractive for major mining investments and project development. One of the most significant highlights discussed was the project's long-term production potential and mine life outlook. Klip pointed to estimates suggesting a mine life of approximately 21 years, with potential annual production exceeding 200,000 tonnes of London Metal Exchange copper plate in the first 5 years and averaging 148,000 tonnes annually. He further noted that the implementation of Rio Tinto's Nuton technology could significantly enhance resource recovery and potentially extend the mine's operating life by an additional 33 years, further strengthening the long-term value proposition of the project. #proactiveinvestors #tnrgoldcorp #tsxv #tnr #mcewenmining #mining #losazulesproject #TNRGold #McEwenCopper #LosAzules #Copper #Mining #ArgentinaMining #CriticalMinerals #ResourceDevelopment #MiningStocks

ng mines in Mexico. Production reflected stable operations at Campo Morado and the continued ramp-up of underground mining and processing activities at Tahuehueto. The company is also engaged in ongoing metallurgical testing to improve recovery rates and future payability for their 5 metals, and 3 concentrates; with an emphasis on gold and silver recoveries.   2025 Highlights   Transformational Operational Growth: Tonnes mined and milled increased 53% and 51%, respectively, to 1.01 million tonnes, reflecting higher throughput and improved operational stability across both Campo Morado and Tahuehueto. Strong Multi-Metal Production Growth: Increase throughput resulted in significant growth across key metals, with silver production up 69%, zinc up 72%, lead up 53%, andcopper up 37% compared to 2024.  As a result, Luca achieved revised guidance for all metals produced, including payable silver production above the top end of revised guidance. Strategic Investment in Mine Development: Sustaining capital expenditures increased to $27.3 million as the Company accelerated underground development and exploration programs designed to improve mine sequencing, access higher-grade zones, and support long-term production reliability. Strong Financial Performance: Revenue increased 103% to $176.8 million from $87.2 million in 2024, whileAdjusted EBITDA increased 226% to $46.0 million, compared to $14.1 millionin 2024, driven by higher production levels and stronger realized precious metal prices. Significant Balance Sheet Improvement: The Company reduced loans payable from $17.0 million at December 31, 2024 to $3.3 million at December 31, 2025, representing a reduction of more than 80% during the year. As of the date of this MD&A, outstanding loans payable have been further reduced to $1.4 million.  Exploration Programs Reinitiated to Support Resource Growth: During 2025, the Company reinitiated exploration activities across its projects for the first time in more than a decade.  To date, approximately 30,140 metres of exploration drilling have been completed, improving geological understanding of the deposits, identifying additional mineralized zones, and supporting potential resource expansion. These exploration programs represent an important step towards unlocking additional value within the Company's asset portfolio and establishing a pipeline of future growth opportunities   Q1 2026 Operational and Financial Results Update: During the first quarter of 2026, the Company completed approximately 10,058 metres of drilling. Exploration activities were primarily focused on near-mine and resource expansion targets, achieving the objectives of extending mine life and improving production flexibility at the Company's operating assets. Operationally the company was on strong footing, with solid operating performance and strong silver production in a favorable price environment. The Company remained focused on operational improvements at both mines, with particular emphasis on Campo Morado which is moving into an expansion study towards a technical report in the second half of 2026. That company announced on March 9th the appointment of Nick Shakesby as Chief Operating Officer (“COO”), effective April 1, 2026. Luca has also strengthened its technical team to advance and execute on optimization and growth initiatives, including the Campo Morado Expansion. As of March 31, 2026, Luca's cash position increased to approximately $36.4 million, compared to $25.5 million at year-end 2025. The increase was primarily driven by strong operating cash flow, supplemented by approximately $2.1 million in proceeds from warrant and option exercises and net realized gains of approximately $3.6 million from silver call options. These options were implemented to re-establish exposure to silver prices in light of the silver stream at Tahuehueto. As previously disclosed in the Company's Q4/25 financial results, debt has been reduced to approximately $1.4 million, with the remaining balance expected to be fully repaid by mid-2026.   Click here to follow the latest news from Luca Mining     If you have any question for Dan regarding Luca Mining, then please email those into me at  Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure Shad is a shareholder of Luca Mining at the time of this recording and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   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.

Key Takeaways: Use Bonus Depreciation Wisely: Recent tax rules allow businesses to write off large equipment costs faster. This encourages investment, especially in areas like manufacturing. Know When to Expense vs. Capitalize: Expensing means deducting costs right away, while capitalizing spreads the cost over time. Understanding the difference helps you manage taxes and keep a strong balance sheet. Use Cost Segregation to Save More: Cost segregation breaks down parts of a building or plant so they can be depreciated faster. This can improve cash flow and overall financial efficiency. Plan Finances With Strategy: Good financial planning connects tax decisions with long-term business goals. This helps businesses grow in a more stable and intentional way. Manufacturing Is Evolving: New technologies like AI and 3D printing are changing how things are made. Businesses that adapt early can gain a strong advantage.   Chapters: 0:00 Rebuilding America's Industrial Base Through Tax Incentives 2:16 Understanding Bonus Depreciation and Its Impact on Business Growth 4:53 Exploring Accounting, Manufacturing, and Future Economic Strategies 6:40 Maximizing Depreciation Through Cost Segregation in Farming 10:13 Strategic Investments for Business Growth and Societal Benefit Powered by ReiffMartin CPA and Stone Hill Wealth Management   Social Media Handles    Follow Phillip Washington, Jr. on Instagram (@askphillip)   Subscribe to Wealth Building Made Simple newsletter https://www.wealthbuildingmadesimple.us/   Ready to turn your investing dreams into reality?

Send us Fan MailThe nonprofit development assistant role responsibilities are often misunderstood—but getting this position right can dramatically increase fundraising results and operational efficiency.In this Fundraisers Friday episode, Julia Patrick and Tony Beall break down why this role is not just administrative support—but a strategic investment that frees your fundraising team to focus on revenue generation, donor relationships, and long-term growth.As Tony explains, “Nonprofit fundraising professionals need to have the bandwidth to be away from their desk… making connections and stewarding relationships.” Without that support, highly paid development leaders end up doing low-value administrative work—limiting your organization's return on investment.This conversation dives into the real responsibilities behind the role, including donor database management, acknowledgments, reporting, event coordination, CRM oversight, and campaign support. These are not small tasks—they are the operational backbone of effective fundraising.Julia highlights a critical mindset shift: “Even just opening your heart and your mind to having this support might be a little bit of a challenge.” Many organizations—and even development professionals—struggle to delegate, which creates bottlenecks and slows growth.You'll also learn:When a nonprofit should consider hiring a development assistantHow to structure the role (full-time, part-time, or shared)Why customer service skills are essential in fundraising operationsHow this role supports donor experience and retentionCareer pathways and talent pipelines (including interns and volunteers)Most importantly, this episode challenges nonprofit leaders to think in terms of time value and ROI—are your highest-paid fundraisers doing the work that actually drives revenue?If your organization is serious about scaling fundraising and improving efficiency, this is a conversation you need to hear. 00:00:00 Introduction to Development Assistant Role 00:04:30 Why This Role Is a Strategic Investment 00:06:00 Time Value: Fundraisers vs Administrative Tasks 00:08:10 Core Responsibilities Explained 00:10:00 Delegation Challenges in Nonprofit Teams 00:11:00 Modern Fundraising vs Traditional Admin Work 00:13:00 Key Traits: Customer Service + Project Management 00:14:30 Where to Find the Right Talent 00:16:10 Volunteers vs Paid Roles: What Works 00:18:30 Reporting Structure and Team Integration 00:20:00 Real Example: Post-Networking Follow-Up Workflow 00:21:40 Career Path and Growth Opportunities 00:26:30 ROI Thinking: Start Part-Time and Scale #TheNonprofitShow #NonprofitLeadership #FundraisingStrategyFind us Live daily on YouTube!Find us  Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits!  12:30pm ET   11:30am CT  10:30am MT  9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

We're all being told to "embrace AI or be left behind," but what if the biggest risk isn't ignoring AI, but implementing it poorly and alienating the very customers we're trying to attract? Agility requires not just the speed to adopt new technologies like AI, but the wisdom to discern where they create genuine value versus where they simply add complexity. It's about constantly testing, learning, and refining your approach to serve the customer, not just the algorithm. Today, we are here at eTail Palm Springs hearing about all the latest in e-commerce and retail, and we're going to talk about moving past the hype cycle of AI and getting down to the practical realities of how it's actually changing consumer behavior, and what that means for marketing leaders trying to make smart investments. We'll get into the nuance of what to automate versus what to keep human, and how to use these powerful tools to build customer relationships, not just transactional efficiency.To help me discuss this, I'd like to welcome Keri McGhee, CMO at Attentive.

We're all being told to "embrace AI or be left behind," but what if the biggest risk isn't ignoring AI, but implementing it poorly and alienating the very customers we're trying to attract?Agility requires not just the speed to adopt new technologies like AI, but the wisdom to discern where they create genuine value versus where they simply add complexity. It's about constantly testing, learning, and refining your approach to serve the customer, not just the algorithm.Today, we are here at eTail Palm Springs hearing about all the latest in e-commerce and retail, and we're going to talk about moving past the hype cycle of AI and getting down to the practical realities of how it's actually changing consumer behavior, and what that means for marketing leaders trying to make smart investments. We'll get into the nuance of what to automate versus what to keep human, and how to use these powerful tools to build customer relationships, not just transactional efficiency.To help me discuss this, I'd like to welcome Keri McGhee, CMO at Attentive.

Stuart Chapman is a Director and Head of Operational Due Diligence at Strategic Investment Group, a $30B OCIO serving a mix of pension, endowment, and nonprofit clients.Operational due diligence doesn't always get the spotlight, but it should. Stu shares his insight on his process that sits completely outside the investment function — giving ODD a genuine seat at the table and, veto rights when necessary.We cover how Stu thinks about operational risk, when to work with a manager to improve processes, the current state of continuous dynamic monitoring, and why the onsite visit still matters — from building true long-term partnerships to seeing firm culture in a live environment.We also get into emerging manager infrastructure, the operational implications of offering retail products to the wealth channel, and why alpha without real infrastructure and operational leadership can slow you down.Learn MoreFollow Capital Allocators at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@tseides⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠LinkedIn⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Subscribe to the ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠mailing list⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Access transcript with ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Premium Membership⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Editing and post-production work for this episode was provided by The Podcast Consultant (⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://thepodcastconsultant.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠)

In this episode, host Frank La Vigne and co-host Candice Gillhoolley sit down with Danny Wall, the founder, CEO, and CTO of OA Quantum Labs, for an in-depth conversation about the real-world intersection of quantum computing and artificial intelligence.You'll hear Danny Wall pull the curtain back on how OA Quantum Labs is pushing quantum solutions beyond the research phase and into commercially viable applications. From accelerating AI training and inference to spinning out novel materials at lightning speed, Danny shares firsthand stories about quantum-enhanced breakthroughs in material science, finance, and more.This episode dives into common misconceptions—like the idea that AI is actually running on quantum computers—and Danny explains the nuanced, current reality: quantum as an incredible mathematical accelerator and enhancement for AI, rather than a full replacement. You'll also get practical advice for developers, researchers, and investors eager to get started with quantum, and insights on what it really takes to stay ahead in a field moving as fast as quantum.If you're curious about how quantum technologies are escaping the confines of the lab and making real commercial impact, this is the episode you've been waiting for!Time Stamps00:00 "Quantum Labs Driving AI Innovation"03:31 "Quantum Computing Enhances AI Efficiency"09:32 Advanced Materials Breakthroughs Revolutionizing Industries12:58 Quantum Investing: Beyond PhD Pedigrees15:47 "Quantum, Solutions, and Strategic Investment"18:05 "Jump Into Quantum Development"20:27 "Quantum Enhancement for AI Solutions"25:38 AI Limits and Misconceptions27:02 "AI Creativity Hack with Roles"33:16 "Challenges in Quantum Error Correction"36:37 Quantum Computing's Material Challenges38:02 "AI Progress Hitting Limits"42:49 "Quantum Encryption and Neural Networks"47:19 "Schrödinger's Cat Explained Simply"48:16 "Quantum Physics Misconceptions Explained"

Interview with Mark Selby, CEO of Canada NickelOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/western-nickel-projects-gain-momentum-as-supply-dynamics-improve-9150Recording date: 1st March 2026After several years of volatility in nickel markets driven largely by Indonesian oversupply, signs of structural recalibration are emerging. Canada Nickel Company is advancing the Crawford nickel sulfide project in Ontario at a time when improving supply discipline and supportive Western industrial policy may reshape the investment case for the metal.CEO Mark Selby points to Indonesia's evolving fiscal framework as a central catalyst. Tiered royalty systems and ore quota management now align government revenue incentives with higher realized nickel prices. Year-to-date, nickel prices have risen approximately 30%, while ore, nickel pig iron, and stainless steel prices have increased up to 40%. These indicators suggest that tightening supply dynamics are beginning to support price stabilization.Crawford represents one of the largest undeveloped nickel sulfide resources in North America. The project is progressing through permitting and engineering, with federal permits expected mid-year and provincial coordination under Ontario's “One Project, One Process” framework. Detailed engineering has commenced, and long-lead procurement planning is underway. The project has a projected mine life of approximately 40 years and expected annual production approaching 50,000 tonnes of nickel in its initial phase.Financing visibility has improved materially. The company estimates roughly C$600 million in refundable tax credits across two Canadian critical minerals programs. In addition, Samsung SDI has committed US$100 million for a 10% stake in the project, validating its strategic importance within battery supply chains. Remaining equity requirements are estimated at approximately US$300 million, with potential access to Ontario's Critical Minerals Processing Fund, Canada's C$2 billion Critical Minerals Sovereign Fund, infrastructure programs, and G7-aligned financing relationships in Europe.Beyond Crawford, Canada Nickel controls additional assets within the Timmins Nickel District, including Midlothian and Reid. Reid's footprint exceeds that of Crawford and may support higher annual production rates. Over time, the district could potentially support multiple production lines and significantly expand output, subject to sequencing and partnership decisions.Currently trading at a discount to net asset value relative to comparable advanced-stage projects in other commodities, Canada Nickel may benefit from valuation re-rating as nickel fundamentals stabilize and project milestones are achieved. While development risks remain inherent in large-scale mining projects, the alignment of improving commodity dynamics, government-backed funding frameworks, and project readiness positions the company within a differentiated segment of the nickel development space.For investors seeking exposure to critical minerals within a stable jurisdiction, Canada Nickel offers participation in both near-term construction catalysts and long-term district-scale growth.View Canada Nickel's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/canada-nickelSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with George Salamis, President & CEO of Integra Resources Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/integra-resources-tsxvitr-55m-financing-explained-9184Recording date: 23rd February 2026Integra Resources Corp. (TSXV: ITR) has unveiled its 2026 guidance and three-year production outlook, signaling a transformative period for its Florida Canyon gold mine in Nevada. The company expects to produce 70,000-75,000 ounces in 2026 at elevated all-in sustaining costs of $2,750-$2,950 per ounce, representing a deliberate investment phase designed to unlock substantially higher production in subsequent years.President and CEO George Salamis positioned 2026 as a "setup year" focused on building capacity for future growth. The company is deploying $62-68 million in sustaining capital, primarily for intensive waste stripping campaigns to access the higher-grade Central Pit ore body and fleet renewal programs. This strategic investment is expected to deliver 80,000-90,000 ounces annually in both 2027 and 2028 at significantly reduced costs as stripping intensity declines.The production outlook surprised analysts who had modeled Florida Canyon at 70,000-75,000 ounces in perpetuity. Management emphasized that the capital program carries minimal execution risk, with ore-waste boundaries well-defined through extensive geological modeling. An updated feasibility study expected in coming months will extend Florida Canyon's mine life beyond the current five-year estimate to seven-plus years, incorporating approximately 50 million tons of low-grade stockpiled material being reclassified as ore.Beyond Florida Canyon, Integra is advancing its DeLamar project in Idaho through a recent $60 million equity raise that added 12 new institutional investors. The proceeds will fund early works programs and long-lead equipment purchases ahead of planned 2028 development. A strategic $12.5 million ranch acquisition provides critical water rights and environmental mitigation opportunities, de-risking the $1.8 billion NPV project.With over $110 million in treasury and strong projected cash flow generation from 2027-2028, management expects to self-fund DeLamar's equity portion without major dilution, offering investors a clear pathway to multi-asset value creation in a favorable gold price environment.View Integra Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/integra-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Matt Smith to the show. Matt Smith is Co-Author of "The Preparation" & Host of "Doug Casey's Take" Podcast. The conversation centers on the current economic landscape, with a particular focus on gold, monetary policy, and potential global financial reset. Smith discusses the unprecedented rise in gold prices, noting it has topped $4,040 and suggesting this bull market is unique. He believes the United States and China may have an unspoken agreement to use gold as a "liquidity sink" to manage massive economic challenges, particularly the enormous $175 trillion in unfunded liabilities. Smith argues that the current gold price surge is not just about preservation of capital, but potentially wealth creation. He points to historical comparisons, such as housing prices measured in gold terms, which have dramatically shifted over the past decades. Morgan Stanley's recent recommendation of 20% portfolio allocation to gold underscores the metal's growing importance. The discussion explores broader geopolitical and economic trends, including potential monetary resets, the role of critical minerals, and alternative educational paths. Smith is skeptical of traditional higher education, instead advocating for a more experiential learning approach outlined in his book "The Preparation", which he co-authored with Doug Casey. Regarding gold and precious metals, Smith believes we are in the early stages of a significant market transformation. He sees gold as uniquely positioned to serve as a monetary reset mechanism, with potentially dramatic price increases ahead. He suggests the price could reach extraordinary levels, potentially hitting $23,000 per ounce as part of a broader economic recalibration. The conversation touches on various global economic dynamics, including trade wars, critical mineral strategies, and potential geopolitical shifts. Throughout, Smith maintains a pragmatic yet cautious perspective on current economic trends, emphasizing the potential for significant structural changes in the global monetary system.
