Proactive's Tylah Tully breaks down ‘Just the Facts' from the latest news out of Poseidon Nickel Ltd (ASX:POS, OTC:PSDNF). The company has made significant strides in gold exploration at its Black Swan Project in Western Australia, notably doubling the size of the Wilson's gold-in-soil anomaly to 2.5 by 1.5 kilometres. Originally identified in September 2024, this anomaly yielded peak surface gold values of 79 ppb and remains open to further exploration southeast of its current boundary. Additional promising gold-in-soil trends have been confirmed at the Wattle and Ellison prospects. Wattle now covers 1.2 by 1.3 kilometres with a peak gold value of 33 ppb, while Ellison spans 1 by 1 kilometre with gold values reaching 43 ppb. These anomalies point to the potential presence of deeper, gold-bearing systems. Poseidon identified Wilson's Prospect as its most advanced gold target, with a northwest-oriented trend encompassing anomalous quartz veins, gold nuggets and historical gold-bearing drill intersections. These findings will inform upcoming low-cost exploration initiatives, including shallow drilling, to evaluate these targets further. The Black Swan gold exploration progress aligns with Poseidon's proposed merger with Horizon Minerals, which, if completed, would provide continuity to exploration programs and support future gold ore processing at Black Swan. Poseidon's next steps include further infill sampling and shallow drilling, pending statutory approvals. #ProactiveInvestors #PoseidonNickel #ASX #JusttheFacts#BlackSwanProject #GoldExploration #WesternAustralia #GoldInSoil #WilsonProspect #WattleProspect #EllisonProspect #MiningNews #MineralExploration #GoldMining #HorizonMerger #ResourceDevelopment #ShallowDrilling #NaturalResources #GoldTargets #ExplorationExpansion #MiningIndustry #NickelAndGold

Maximus Resources Ltd (ASX:MXR, OTC:MXRRF) managing director Tim Wither joins Proactive's Tylah Tully to discuss the positive results from Phase 2 drilling at Wattle Gold Dam, near Kambalda, Western Australia. The drilling confirmed elevated gold, with samples showing up to 1-metre at 8.05 g/t of gold. The site is positioned along the Spargoville shear zone, where a potential structural offset of the high-grade Wattle Dam Gold Mine has been identified. The discovery of biotite-amphibole alterations within the rock indicates promising gold prospectivity, as biotite has historically been a marker for high-grade mineralisation at Wattle Dam. Wither noted that the Phase 2 results build confidence in the geological model and enhance future exploration prospects. However, the coarse nature of the gold presents challenges, with high variability in grade estimates. To address this, the company increased assay sample sizes to better represent gold content, a key step for future drill programs. Initial assays suggest coarse gold is likely present, similar to historical mining conditions at the site. Maximus will continue refining drilling targets for a Phase 3 program at Wattle Dam, scheduled for the fourth quarter, and aims to advance gold production in parallel with further exploration. #ProactiveInvestors #ASX #GoldExploration #MiningNews #WattleDam #MaximusResources #DrillingResults #CoarseGold #SpargovilleShearZone #GoldMineralisation #BiotiteAlteration #GoldProspectivity #GoldMining #GeologicalUnderstanding #ExplorationPrograms #GoldAssays #Phase2Drilling #WesternAustralia #MiningIndustry #GoldSampling #ResourceDevelopment #Paleochannel #GoldProduction #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews
It's that time of the year again (I know that can branch off into so many different variations so I'll let your mind wander for a moment before I get to the actual thing.) That's right, it's Employee of the Quarter time and yet again, Angi "Susan Lucci" Taylor was left holding the coats as she was ignored for the 108th consecutive time. It was not all bad, as Marris was recognized as was HP who apparently has decided that she will allow iHeart to hire her so she can make less money than people who beg for change on the streets. On top of that, known studio hoarder Maria pulled a golden gumball which means much like Marris, she now has a trip anywhere in the world. Defeated but not yet broken, fate fixed that for Angi when she was leaving the building yesterday and took a glass turnstile bar to her worn out catchers mitt. That's right, not only was she essentially ignored during yesterday's celebration of employees but she also ended up breaking her former baby maker. Broken coochie, while not officially recognized as a thing, is now being added to the Angi Taylor endless problems list. Seeing as she can't seem to win anything the station offers up (nor can she make those HR things stick,) Angi is hoping that she might get a chance at some free money. However, as stated, the thing is old, worn down and broken so maybe a couple of pennies and some snacks from the iHeart kitchen is all she will end up getting. The thing is, even if she's had her sagging machine shattered, Angi still loves this job. I mean, there might be the fact that she's been doing it for 30 years and she doesn't know how to do anything else but surely there is more. Actually no, that was all she said, that she is useless outside of gabbing to a bunch of lovely people every morning. For this reason, she loves her job and I finally can mention this is the lead in for the Daily Discussion Topic. This one was pretty simple, you love your job, what do you do? Marris also works in radio (duh) and loves his job as he gets the opportunity to meet tons of people, go to great events and have tons of fun talking to the roadies. In fact, Angi loves it so much that she feels lost and out of place when she is not on air for a week. A combination of FOMO and early onset will do that to you. As for myself, while getting up as early as I do can be hit or miss some days, I too love the ability to entertain, sharpen my writing and of course, make fun of Angi and Marris. Enough of us though, let's hear what the roadies do from the Request Line. Heather and her sister have a dog walking business. Head Roadie Keith has been a mechanic for 37 years. Jesse makes money from playing video games. If there was ever a job Marris would be jealous of, this should be it. Duncan is a pool cleaner and adores it. Johnny Walk is a quality control tester for a local cannabis brand. Anna works for a safety company. All in all, all of them love their jobs. If you are looking for more roadie thoughts or have your own, hit up our Facebook group (Angi Taylor Show) and drop us a comment.
The body of 27-year-old mother of two, Samantha Bodsworth, was found in Noosa, surrounded by wattle trees. The killer thinks it's the perfect crime, but what they underestimated was the power of the tiny, silent witnesses clinging to almost everything they touched – pollen. In this episode, Dr Lynne Milne, the scientist at the forefront of forensic palynology, reveals how, for the first time in an Australian criminal case, pollen helped unmask a murderer. This episode references men's violence against women.

Dr Shane and Scarlett speak with six guests in this bumper physics show!This week's guests are:1) Dr Sara Webb, from Swinburne University. To prepare for the future of Astronomy, Dr. Sara Webb works with optical telescope data and machine learning to explore explosions in the universe and how astronomers find them. Sara focused on studying small, yet mighty, red dwarf stars and their flares. When a star flares, energy and matter are spewed out into the surrounding solar system, and Sara has worked to build up a large and unique population of these stars that flare in very short periods of time. In her broader research into investigating the use of AI in team situations, Sara is currently working on studying how astronomers work in their various cognitive states.Aside from her academic research, Sara also coordinates and co-leads Swinburne's unique student space challenge programs, sending student led experiments to the International Space Station. This Australian wide program gives students insight into a space science career. Next week, this challenge will run with 70 amazing high school students learning about space/astronomy on campus. They all get to leave with an experiment kit with real space samples been to the ISS and back. 2) Four Fellows of the Wattle Sustainability Fellowship at the University of Melbourne: Alyssa Seckinger-CrowEllen MartinAnke OatleyRita Adjei3) Dr Suzie Sheehy from the Department of Physics, Faculty of Science, Univeristy of Melbourne. Suzie is an Associate Professor and is the Baker/ANSTO Fellow in Medical Accelerator Physics. Suzie will be talking about the upcoming July lectures in physics – the most notable science communication event at University of Melbourne that has been running for over 50 years.
Internationally renowned Australian artists, Composer Joe Twist, Lyricist Jodie O'Regan and Berlin based Choir Conductor Christopher Bradley have joined forces to compose “Wattle Sky”, a 15 minute choral piece that celebrates Australia's national flower. The piece, in three movements, is partly inspired by the revolutionary OGL program that allows school students to study the germination of wattle seeds that have flown in space.The wattle seeds spent six months aboard the International Space Station before returning to Earth and being distributed to Australian schools. There, they are currently being monitored against Earth based seeds to see how they grow in comparison.Speaking recently on OGL's podcast, Jodie O' Regan said she was inspired to include the unique science experiment when writing the lyrics for the choir after seeing footage of the Dragon capsule returning the seeds to Earth. "When I told (Composer) Joe Twist that wattle seeds had travelled to space he asked me for some words directly from the mission, I therefore used some of the words from mission control for the piece”.Find out more;https://onegiantleapfoundation.com.au/podcast/https://seedsinspace.com.au/whtw/https://www.jodieoregan.com/https://joetwist.com/https://christopherbradley.eu/ and https://tonraumfuenf10.de/

For centuries, the construction method of wattle and daub has been used to contruct buildings.For Shakespeare's lifetime, the Tudor style of house became famous for this form of construction because Tudor homes featured exposed beams held together in the wattle anddaub style. For the uninitiated, however,you may not know what constitutes a wattle or a daub, or how this method of construction was accomplished. Here today to answer these questionsand share with us not only how the process was completed for Shakespeare's lifetime, but what methods modern preservationist use when recreating this method on conservation projects thattry to save old buildings from ruin is our guest, and expert in wattle and daub, DrTony Graham Get bonus episodes on Patreon Hosted on Acast.

While chickens share plenty of features with other types of birds, fleshy parts like their comb and wattle are fairly unique. They may appear flashy, especially against the solid plumage of most chickens, but these parts communicate quite a bit about your chickens. There are several variations of combs that differ depending on a chicken's breed, but wattles are pretty much the same across the board. The biggest difference to note is the size of the wattle, but all of them work to keep a chicken cool and signal key health details to their keepers. Keep reading as we explain the importance of the wattle, what details you should pay attention to, and how common ailments affect the appearance of the chicken wattle.

With the number of robberies of dairies, and the killing of shopkeeper Janak Patel last week, small business owners are taking extraordinary steps to keep themselves safe. We visited one which is about as secure as they come, Cedar Park Superette in Auckland's Wattle Downs. It's where former Police Minister Stuart Nash chose to launch a $1.9 million initiative to double the number of fog cannons in small businesses back in 2020. First Up producer Matthew Theunissen caught up with owner Uday Patel and found that the dairy's now the Fort Knox of suburban retail.

In 2021, One Giant Leap Australia sent golden wattle seeds into space, as part of a nationwide STEM project to explore "What'll Happen to the Wattle??!". In this episode, Emma the Space Gardener talks to Jackie Carpenter about how the seeds got to space, and then back home again, and what's next for the space-flown wattle seeds.

The Friday Newsletter | Daily Gardener Community Historical Events Today is National Zucchini Bread Day. 1851 Birth of George Herbert Engleheart, English clergyman and daffodil breeder. In 1889, George began breeding daffodils - some 700 varieties in his lifetime. Fans of Beersheba, Lucifer, or White Ladyowe a debt of gratitude to Reverend Engleheart. George spent every spare minute breeding, and his parishioners would often find a note tacked to the church door saying, No service today, working with daffodils. 1852 Birth of Marcus Jones, American geologist, mining engineer, and botanist. Marcus's mother loved plants, and every day, she sent Marcus to gather fresh flowers, which she displayed on the family's mantle. This daily chore was the beginning of his passion for botany. Marcus won national recognition for his work as a prominent botanist of the American West, and in 1923, he sold his personal herbarium for $25,000 - an impressive amount at the time. To this day, his collection represents the largest archive of plants from Utah. Marcus died in 1934 in San Bernardino, California. At the age of 81, he returned from a plant collecting trip at Lake Arrowhead when another driver hit his car. As seatbelts wouldn't be invented for another 25 years, Jones was ejected from his vehicle and died from a skull fracture. Jones columbine, Aquilegia jonesii (ii = "ee-eye") is named for him. It is rare and, like most columbines, does not transplant well. Jonesii plants and seeds are sold by select nurseries. 1925 Birth of Joseph Henry Maiden, English-Australian botanist. Born in London, Joseph immigrated to New South Wales, Australia, hoping that the climate would improve his health. Joseph quickly landed a job as a museum curator in Sydney, and he also married a local woman named Eliza Jane Hammond. During his time in Australia, Joseph contributed to understanding Australian flora, especially the Eucalyptus genus. After thoroughly studying Australian woods and essential oils, Joseph wrote his book called The Useful Native Plants of Australia. In 1896, Joseph was appointed the Director of the Sydney Botanic Gardens. In total, Joseph served as a botanist in Australia for 43 years. As for his Australian legacy, Joseph is remembered every September 1st, the first day of spring down under. It's also known as Wattle Day or Acacia Day. In Australia, the Wattle is a common name for Acacia. Recognizing their beauty and value, Joseph established the Wattle Day League, which fought to make the Golden Wattle (Acacia pycnantha "ah-KAY-see-ah pik-NANTH-ah") Australia's national floral emblem, and he also worked to establish Wattle Day. Since the inception of Wattle Day in 1909, Australians have worn a Wattle blossom, which looks like a little yellow pompom, in honor of the day. The Wattle blossom is also a favorite with pollinators. As plants, Wattles are tough evergreen shrubs and trees that can withstand Australia's droughts, winds, and bushfires. There are 760 Wattle species native to Australia's forest understory, woodlands, and open scrub. The common name Wattle refers to an old germanic term for weaving and the English craft of building with interwoven flexible twigs and branches. As the English settled in Australia, they often harvested Wattle (Acacia) and used it in their building construction. And here's a fun fact about Wattles (Acacia): Giraffes love to eat them. 1873 Birth of Walter de la Mare, English poet, short story writer, and novelist. He is best remembered for his works for children. In his poem, Peacock Pie, Walter wrote: A poor old Widow in her weeds Sowed her garden with wild-flower seeds; Not too shallow, and not too deep, And down came April -- drip -- drip -- drip. Up shone May, like gold, and soon Green as an arbour grew leafy June. Weeps she never, but sometimes sighs, And peeps at her garden with bright brown eyes; And all she has is all she needs -- A poor Old Widow in her weeds. Grow That Garden Library™ Book Recommendation The Essential Garden Design Workbook by Rosemary Alexander and Rachel Myers This book came out in 2017, and the subtitle is Completely Revised and Expanded. Well, the original version of this book was a best-selling classic. This is the upgraded book that came out five years ago. In this book, the eminent designer and educator Rosemary Alexander teamed up with rising design star Rachel Myers. And what these two women did is they share new garden plans, a ton of new photos and diagrams, and updated profiles of their 50 top plants that they think are timeless and that should be used by today's designers. So there are all kinds of fantastic, modern tips and advice in this book. This is also an excellent book for designers and gardeners interested in incorporating sustainability or plant diversity into their plans. Rosemary and Rachel show how to integrate computer-aided design into the garden design process. And this book is perfect for folks wanting to start a garden design business. Now, of course, nowadays, you don't have to be an artist to be a landscape designer or to convey what you want to do with a particular garden or a job site. But you do need to know how to do the basics. You have to be able to survey a site and draw a plan to scale or use the right software to do that. Then if you're making a more significant presentation, maybe to a company or to an Arboretum, you'll need to include specific details, visuals, and even a mood board. And of course, costing if you want to land their proposal. And so this book gives you everything from soup to nuts on garden design. As Rosemary says, she believes that garden design is one of the most satisfying and rewarding professions - and I have many friends who would agree with her. Now when Gardens Illustrated reviewed this book, they said, The attention to detail at every stage is fantastic. Even if you don't want to be a designer, this book is worth having. This book is a big one. It's 392 pages of garden design - for students, professionals, and anyone looking to create a well-designed outdoor space. You can truly learn from the experts, and they will share it in detail in this book. You can get a copy of The Essential Garden Design Workbook by Rosemary Alexander and Rachel Myers and support the show using the Amazon link in today's show notes for around $16. Botanic Spark 1912 Birth of Julia Francis McHugh Morton, American author and botanist. A Fellow of the Linnean Society, Julia Morton was a famous expert and lecturer on plants. She was revered especially for her knowledge of plant medicine and toxicity. Known as the poison-plant lady, Julia worked to educate the public through letters and phone calls, lectures, and articles - even creating posters designed for hospital emergency rooms. Among the many ER calls Julia received was one from a doctor in Scotland. When a patient fresh from a Jamaican holiday was gravely ill, Julia deduced that a toxic castor bean from a souvenir necklace had been ingested. Over the years, Julia was the subject of many newspaper articles. Clever headlines showcased Julia's expertise, "She gets to the root of problems" and "She leaves no leaf unturned." In 1988, The Miami News published an article about Julia's help with a murder case of a teenage girl. The girl's car was found in the Dadeland Mall parking lot. The police brought Julia a half-inch blade of grass that was found stuck to the door handle of the car and some pieces of leaves that were wedged inside the door. Julia identified the grass as Giant Burma Reed and the leaves as undeveloped leaflets of Spanish Needles. She concluded that a short distance from the Dadeland Mall (perhaps near a nursery in a tall patch of Burma Reed), police might find the girl's body. Julia also predicted there were two killers. She correctly assumed that one had wet hands and had left Burma Reed on the driver's door, while the other had closed the passenger door so quickly it clipped the Spanish Needles. The following day, police officers found an area that matched Morton's description and solved their case. Like Marcus Jones, Julia Morton died in a car accident in 1996. She was 84. It was Julia Morton who said, Plants are always up to something. So I don't take a vacation. I operate on solar energy. I can only stay indoors a certain length of time. Thanks for listening to The Daily Gardener And remember: For a happy, healthy life, garden every day.
The two most dangerous birds on the planet are probably taller then you: Ostrich and cassowary. Both member of the ratite clan. What's a ratite? Flightless birds (excluding the penguin of course). There are actually five ratite species: ostrich, cassowary, rhea, kiwi, and emu! But what makes them flightless? Why are they flightless? What's the point?Ostriches, the African giant flightless bird, could kill you easiest (especially compared to the kiwi) as they are the largest bird who have also been known to kill lions with a simple swing of their mighty backwards legs. Ostriches have a lot of danger about them.Cassowaries, although not as large as an ostrich, have killed a human. But they aren't as tall! They do have terrifying red eyes and a deep call that feels like they are ripping out your soul. But they live in the fun world of Northern Australia, New Guinea and surrounding islands! So I think its safe to say they can be chill...if you respect them. So don't be a dick to animals.Scientific namesOstrich: Struthio camelusSouthern Cassowary: Casuarius casuariusNorthern Cassowary: Casuarius unappendiculatusDwarf Cassowary: Casuarius bennettiFollow the Podcast on Social Media!Instagram @wafpodcasttiktok @wafpodcastEmail: wafpodcastexplicit@gmail.comFacebook: "Weird Animal Facts: Explicit" Support the show (https://www.ko-fi.com/wafpodcast)
