Interview withNick Earner, MD of Alkane ResourcesFrazer Bourchier, President & CEO of Mandalay ResourcesRecording date: 19th May 2025Alkane Resources (ASX:ALK) and Mandalay Resources (TSX:MND) have announced a strategic "merger of equals" that will create a significant mid-tier gold producer. The all-share transaction values Mandalay at A$559.1 million ($357.8 million), with Mandalay shareholders receiving 55% ownership of the combined entity and Alkane shareholders retaining 45%.The merged company will operate under the Alkane Resources name, trading on both the ASX and TSX exchanges. It will maintain a diversified portfolio of three producing mines - Tomingley (Australia), Costerfield (Australia), and Björkdal (Sweden) - with an anticipated annual production of 160,000-180,000 gold equivalent ounces.Financial projections for the combined entity are robust, including over $100 million USD in cash, zero debt, and approximately $200 million USD in annual free cash flow. This represents a cash flow multiple of approximately 3:1, compared to the industry standard of 4-5x EBITDA."This company will have over $100 million US in net cash positive with no debt," noted Frazer Bourchier, President and CEO of Mandalay Resources, highlighting the strong financial foundation of the merger.A key strategic rationale for the combination is achieving "capital relevance" through a pro-forma market capitalization of approximately $650 million USD. This scale should qualify the company for inclusion in both the ASX 300 index and the GDXJ (VanEck Junior Gold Miners ETF), potentially attracting institutional investors previously unable to invest due to size limitations.The merger has received unanimous board approval from both companies and secured voting support agreements from key shareholders. Shareholder votes are expected in June 2025, with transaction closing anticipated by August 2025.The combined entity will pursue a disciplined capital allocation strategy focused on organic exploration, M&A opportunities, and potential shareholder returns, operating with a philosophy of empowered site-level leadership and minimal corporate oversight.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Dive into an exclusive interview with Robin Goad, President and CEO of Fortune Minerals (TSX: FT | OTCQB: FTMDF), as we explore the company's journey from discovery to near-construction of the NICO Project-a unique Canadian critical minerals development. Robin shares how Fortune has invested over C$140 million to advance this world-class asset, now supported by both Canadian and U.S. government funding. This episode highlights the exciting bismuth story: Fortune Minerals controls the world's largest bismuth deposit, representing 12% of global reserves. With bismuth prices soaring over 300% to 17-year highs and China imposing export restrictions on a metal it dominates, Fortune's NICO Project is set to become a vital, secure supplier for North America and beyond. Bismuth's unique, non-toxic properties make it essential for green technologies, automotive, defense, and as a replacement for lead in a range of industrial uses-making this deposit highly significant and valuable in today's market. We also discuss the company's substantial gold reserves, the impact of record-high gold prices, and how Fortune's diversified metals portfolio positions it to play a key role in the global energy transition and supply chain security.

Brian Leni, Founder and Editor of Junior Stock Review, joins us to share his investment thesis on Hot Chili (ASX:HCH, TSX.V:HCH, OTCQX:HHLKF), a copper-gold developer in Chile with a unique value proposition.   While the Costa Fuego project alone justifies a higher valuation, it's Hot Chili's water rights that could be the game-changer according to Brian. Brian also discusses why he believes investors are overlooking Hot Chili's optionality, and what catalysts might force the market to take notice.   In this interview, we cover: The scale and economics of the Costa Fuego project (PFS outlines ~$1.2B NPV at 8%) Why the company's rare maritime water concession may be the most valuable asset - especially for nearby major copper assets. The Huasco Water business, its potential IRR, and how future offtake deals could re-rate the company Exploration upside at the La Verde Porphyry Target, where near-surface higher-grade mineralization could enhance project economics Market valuation disconnect, share price weakness, and strategic positioning in the Atacama region of Chile Click here to visit the Hot Chili website, and please send us your thoughts and any questions you have on the company.   Click here to visit the Junior Stock Review website to keep up to date on what Brian is investing in.

Gold finished down 2.6%, bitcoin futures was up and WTI crude settled up 1.4%. European equity markets are firmer, follows broad strength in Asia, with decent gains for Nikkei and Hang Seng. Attention to the White House, President Trump said he never intended to fire Fed Chair Powell. He repeated his criticisms of Powell and said that he'd like him to be more active in terms of lowering interest rates, but that even if Powell doesn't, it would not result in his termination. Sell-side firms warned firing Powell risked inviting fresh market turbulence though there was also lingering scepticism that Trump would carry out threat to remove Powell given financial repercussions that would follow.Companies mentioned: Voyager Acquisition, VERAXA, Fonterra Co-operative Group, Intel

S&P futures and TSX are pointing down. US 2-year yield stays at 3.8% and 10-year yield climbing 4 bps to 4.4%. Gold settles up 2% and WTI Crude down 1.6%. Treasuries were weaker with some curve steepening, dollar index was little changed. Asia markets are mixed today. More scrutiny is on waning US exceptionalism symbolized by dollar's ongoing retreat. Bearish dollar narrative is broadening beyond tariffs to concerns about Fed's independence. Tariff headline volatility continued as President Trump on Truth Social listed eight categories that would qualify as non-tariff barriers. Japan markets are particularly sensitive to currency manipulation which was at the top of the list. Yen strengthened to a seven-month high amid growing expectations the topic will come up during the meeting between Finance Minister Kato and Treasury Secretary Bessent on the side-lines of this week's Washington G20 meeting of finance minister and central bank governors.Companies mentioned: Tesla, Alphabet, Ford Motor

Peter Krauth, author of the book The Great Silver Bull and editor of the Silver Stock Investor newsletter, joins me for a wide-ranging discussion on the macroeconomic factors continuing to move the precious metal sector, and some pro tips on investing junior silver stocks.    This is a longer-format conversation where we cover many areas of consideration like the recent extreme market volatility, the positioning from countries and investors in front of the coming Trump administration tariffs, and gold acting as the sole safe haven when the US dollar and bonds did not.  We also review whether the gold:silver ratio will compress, favoring a catchup trade in the silver price to higher levels, despite some concerns regarding the global economic concerns pulling on its industrial component.  We also review the lagging effect in the SILJ share price to higher and higher silver prices.   During the conversation, Peter and I discuss a number of silver companies which include:  Cerro de Pasco Resources Inc. (TSX.V: CDPR) (OTCQB: GPPRF),  GoGold Resources Inc. (TSX: GGD) (OTCQX: GLGDF), Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE), First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE: AG) (TSX: AG), Discovery Silver Corp. (TSX: DSV, OTCQX: DSVSF), and Kingsmen Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KNG) (OTCQB: KNGRF).     In full disclosure, Shad holds positions in GoGold Resources, Coeur Mining, and Discovery Silver at the time of this recording, and may buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to visit Peter's site and follow along with his analysis of the silver sector   Click here to subscribe to Peter's free subscription service at the Silver Advisor

Triggerwarnung: sexualisierte Gewalt gegen Kinder Als die zwölfjährige Sina im Sommer 2001 bei ihren Pflegeeltern Norbert und Rita einzieht, wirkt es wie der Beginn eines neuen Lebens. Nach Jahren in der Wohngruppe hat sie endlich ein richtiges Zuhause, das ihr Rückhalt und Stabilität schenken soll. Doch anderthalb Jahre später erzählt Sina, ihr Pflegevater habe sie missbraucht. Es kommt zum Prozess, in dem Aussage gegen Aussage steht. Und die Einschätzung einer Person letztendlich dazu führt, dass das Gericht einen schweren Fehler begeht… In dieser Folge von “Mordlust- Verbrechen und ihre Hintergründe” widmen wir uns der Rolle der Gutachter:innen. Mit ihrem Sachverstand unterstützen sie Richter:innen in Strafprozessen dabei, Verbrechen aufzuklären, Taten zu rekonstruieren und Motive zu benennen. Doch wie viel Macht und Einfluss haben sie wirklich? Und was passiert, wenn sich vermeintliches Fachwissen schlichtweg als falsch entpuppt? Darum geht es in dieser Episode.

Kia ora,Welcome to Thursday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.And today we lead with news gold has taken off, hitting yet another new all-time record high as fear stalks markets today and risk is definitely 'off'. But the NZD is rising. As we publish, markets are moving quickly so this snapshot will date just as quickly.But first in the US, mortgage applications fell -8.0% last week from the same week a year ago, with the refinance component down a rather sharp -12% on the same basis. These retreats came as benchmark mortgage rates rose +20 bps from a week agoA rush to buy cars ahead of the April tariff taxes delivered a boost to March retail sales that was even more than expected. Without those car sales, March retail was barely improved, and that does not adjust for price inflation so in volume terms, core retail sales are declining now. That trend will have global implications.American industrial production rose +1.3% from a year ago and this does adjust for price changes, so a small improvement. But it did shrink in March compared to February.Sentiment by American house builders was little-changed in March from February, but it is -21% lower than a year ago, and -13% lower than two years ago. In fact, excluding the pandemic, you have to go back to the GFC to find it this poor in a March month. That is not good because it is the start of their Spring selling season. Survey results show that tariff taxes are not being paid by importing countries, rather by the builders at this stage. As profits dive, that will be passed on to buyers next.There was a US Treasury 20 year bond auction earlier today and demand was slightly lower so the median yield rose to 4.75%. That is a rise from the 4.59% at the prior equivalent event a month ago.Fed boss Powell was talking earlier today, saying that tariffs pose a real challenge to meet their dual inflation+jobs mandates. Inflation pressures are here now which argues for rate settings to rise, while economic growth is expected to leak away soon hurting jobs, arguing for a rate cut. He said they will "wait for greater clarity" to see where the dominant pressure comes from.These comments were not the magical thinking equity markets wanted to hear, and the realities of what faces the US economy has seen Wall Street pull back today. The Nasdaq is down -3.9%, the S&P500 down -2.8%. The Dow is down -1.8%. Gold is the safe-haven parking lot.In Canada, they are also waiting. Rather than continue with their rate cut track, the Bank of Canada has paused that track, keeping its policy rate at 2.75% as they too watch inflation rise and economic activity leak away. Interestingly, the TSX is only down -0.3%, hit far less than Wall Street.Across the Pacific, Japan's February machinery orders rebounded sharply, rising well above market expectations for a modest +0.8% increase to its highest level in a year. Manufacturing orders rose +3%, while non-manufacturing orders jumped +11.4%. This rise matches the separate machine tool order data for March which was also up sharply. And these first see prosperity ahead; The Reuters Tankan sentiment index rose sharply in April. But the same firms surveyed were gloomy for the months further out in 2025.China claimed its economy grew at a +5.4% rate in Q1-2025 (real), the same rate as for Q4-2024. They said retail sales were up +5.9% (nominal) in March from a year ago, better than the +4.0% in February and the best rise since December 2023 which benefited from a low base. They also said industrial production was up +7.7% (nominal) in March, far better than the +5.6% expected and far better than the +5.9% February gain. Electricity production was only up +1.8% (real) year on year in March, so either they are making spectacular energy efficiency gains, or something other than electricity powers their industry, or something doesn't add up. Anecdotal reports from many regions don't paint quite the picture these official stats paint.Meanwhile, Chinese new home prices in March edged lower from February, but there are range of changes in the 70 top Chinese cities. Still only Shanghai shows a year-on-year gain. Among the same cities, none show any gain for resales of existing houses and some declines are now as much as -11% (Jinhua, 7 mln population, and Tangshan, 7.7 mln).The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.27%, down another -6 bps from this time yesterday. The price of gold will start today sharply higher at a new record of US$3337/oz, and up +US$108 from yesterday or +3.3%.Oil prices have firmed marginally, up +50 USc from yesterday to be now just over US$62/bbl in the US and the international Brent price is now just over US$65.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at 59.3 USc, up +20 bps from yesterday at this time and still the highest since mid-December. The fall of the USD embeds. Against the Aussie we are unchanged at 92.9 AUc. Against the euro we down -40 bps from yesterday at just on 52.4 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today now just on 67.6 and unchanged from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$83,854 and holding again, down less than -0.9% from this time yesterday. Volatility over the past 24 hours has again been modest at +/- 1.3%.You can find links to the articles mentioned today in our show notes.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. This podcast will take a break over the Easter holiday weekend and we will do this again Tuesday.

S&P futures and TSX are pointing slightly up. Asian equities inched higher in cautious trade with a 0.8% surge in Nikkei, Hang Seng and Shanghai are slightly up with India leading the gainers as its banks and auto stocks rallied on tariff reprieve news. European equity markets are mostly higher, with major indices up near 1%. Overnight, US 10-year yield was steady at 4.4% with the 2-year up 1 bP to 3.9%. US dollar unchanged, AUD higher, NZD at four-month high, yen and yuan flat. Oil went up and gold firmer. Crude futures are slightly higher, precious metals are also resuming their upward trend, base metals are mixed. Cryptocurrencies are higher.Companies mentioned: Apple, Lowe's Companies, Ryanair Holdings, NVIDIA Corp

We have Tina Tempest on the show today. Tina, or Chunky, completed a SOBO thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail in 2009. The trail had such an impact upon her life, that she and her husband, Brett, ultimately opened the Quarter Way Inn, a hostel near Marion, Virginia. Tina's breakfast at the hostel is the stuff of legend!

In this episode, we chat with Spencer Cole, CDO and CFO of Xanadu Mines, a copper exploration company with projects in the South Gobi and Western Mongolia. They aim to develop porphyry and intrusion-related deposits and are committed to Mongolia and its potential as one of the last great copper frontiers. Spencer has qualification in Mech and Material Eng (BS), Business & Finance (MBA), Finance (CPA) and has worked in various industries including mining, aerospace, Oil & Gas across the Americas, Australia, and SE Asia. He’s been with Xanadu for coming up to 5 years now and gives us an overview of the company, their flagship project Kharmagtai and will educate us more on the Lassonde Curve and how that has an impact on the company plus much more. KEY TAKEAWAYS Xanadu Mines is an ASX and TSX-listed exploration company focused on copper and gold in Mongolia, with its flagship project, Kharmagtai, currently at the Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) stage. The company has transitioned from coal exploration to copper and gold since 2013-2014. The Lassonde curve illustrates the typical life cycle of a junior mining company, showing how market capitalisation fluctuates through different stages of project development. Xanadu's journey reflects this curve, having experienced peaks and troughs as it moved from exploration to commercialisation. Hermagti faces challenges such as funding, permitting, and the need to identify high-grade zones to minimise negative cash flow. However, opportunities exist in the form of potential sequential heap leaching of weathered deposits and the possibility of expanding the resource through further drilling. Zijin Mining, a top global copper and gold miner, has partnered with Xanadu to advance the Kharmagtai project. This partnership is seen as beneficial due to Zijin's experience in advanced metallurgy and their aggressive growth model, which aligns with Xanadu's goals. Over the next 6 to 12 months, Xanadu aims to complete a bankable feasibility study for Kharmagtai and navigate the Mongolian permitting process. The company is also exploring funding options and planning further exploration activities for its other projects, Sant. Tolgoi and Red Mountain. BEST MOMENTS "Xanadu is an ASX and TSX, so dual listed exploration company... focused on copper and gold in Mongolia." "The Lassonde curve illustrates the typical life cycle of a junior mining company, showing its market capitalisation over the different stages of development." "Kharmagtai is a big, low-grade copper-gold porphyry. Its economics work on scale, low strip ratio, and byproduct credits." "Zijin is a top five copper miner... they have a very aggressive growth model and are really experienced at building value through advanced metallurgy."

I hoped there would be more to his story than a December summit, so I reached out to him. He shared a story of determination and drive, culminating in that epic picture on the top of Katahdin. Nick made some intelligent choices for his hike that should inspire others in their own quest to fulfill an Appalachian Trail thru-hike. His calm demeanor will impress you.

David Kibiloski is our guest today. What starts as a story about his Appalachian Trail thru-hike, tracks his evolution into an AT hostel owner, then a 501(c)(3) with AT Kids, followed by Stumble Inn 2.0. It is a fascinating journey.
