She shares with us the story of her illustrious academic career around the world since then, including a postdoctoral research position in the UK at the Institute of Computational Cosmology, University of Durham and now a prestigious Jim Buckee Fellowship at the International Centre for Radio Astronomy Research, University of Western Australia.   Nicole explains to us her latest research on using state-of-the-art supercomputer simulations to understanding the havoc that supermassive black holes wreak on galaxies. She does this by trying to model how the Universe works using our current understanding of physics and comparing her results to images of the real Universe taken with South Africa's MeerKAT telescope. She hints that she looks forward to applying these simulations to the findings of the upcoming SKA telescope!   Next, Nobel Laureate Prof Brian Schmidt, a Distinguished Professor at the Australian National University joins the team on stage. Brian takes us back to the night of the 4th of October 2011 when he received a call from Sweden telling him he had won the Nobel Prize. Brian received the prize, alongside two other people, for having discovered the accelerating expansion of the Universe. He discusses what life has been like after such a monumental achievement, including his experiences as Vice-Chancellor of the Australian National University. Finally, he tells us about his plans to get back to doing research and reveals what he thinks the next big astrophysical breakthroughs will be using the SKA telescope under construction in South Africa and Australia.   We've added a new way to donate to 365 Days of Astronomy to support editing, hosting, and production costs.  Just visit: https://www.patreon.com/365DaysOfAstronomy and donate as much as you can!

Interview with Philip Williams, Director & CEO of IsoEnergy Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/isoenergy-tsxiso-inside-isoenergys-strategic-play-on-uraniums-supply-demand-revolutiont-7872Recording date: 19th November 2025IsoEnergy is building an institutional-scale uranium platform spanning Canada, the United States, and Australia through strategic acquisitions and targeted exploration spending. CEO Philip Williams recently announced the acquisition of Toro Energy, which adds the 75-million-pound Wiluna project in Western Australia to what the company calls its "Core Four" assets. This portfolio includes Canada's Hurricane deposit, described as the world's highest-grade uranium resource, along with near-term production capabilities at past-producing Utah mines and the 160-million-pound Coles Hill resource in Virginia, the largest uranium deposit in the United States.The company is prioritizing exploration capital in Canada's Athabasca Basin, where its PurePoint joint venture recently made the Dorado discovery, validating the consolidation strategy. Additional programs target the LaRocque East project and US properties in Utah's Henry Mountains district, where IsoEnergy sees accessible near-term discovery potential from historically productive areas that haven't been systematically explored in decades.Williams emphasized the company's positioning to benefit from US government initiatives to rebuild domestic uranium supply chains, including the Strategic Uranium Reserve. With uranium demand fundamentally outstripping supply through 2040 and governments deploying multiple support mechanisms, from direct purchases to project investments and accelerated permitting, IsoEnergy's diversified portfolio provides multiple value realization pathways across different development timelines and jurisdictions.The diversification strategy deliberately mirrors industry leader Cameco, reducing single-asset risk while maintaining the technical teams and financial strength to advance projects simultaneously. Management maintains flexible capital allocation responsive to jurisdictional developments and market conditions, with plans for significant project milestones across all Core Four assets in 2026.—Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/isoenergySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

2025-11-21_Dr Karl Kruselnicki by CurtinFM 100.1 in Perth, Western Australia

M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Nimy Resources, outlining plans to collaborate on forming commercially binding terms for the future sale and purchase of gallium production. Rosende highlighted that the agreement comes at a strategically important time for the United States. The U.S. currently has no domestic primary gallium production and depends entirely on imports, with a substantial portion originating from China. Although China has temporarily lifted its export ban on gallium to the U.S. until November 2026, shipments remain under tight export controls requiring government-issued licenses. With gallium essential for semiconductors, defense systems, and clean-energy technologies, developing secure, non-Chinese supply pathways is now a national priority. The MOU sets the stage for M2i and Nimy to work together on the potential supply of gallium sourced from Nimy's Mons Project in Western Australia, which hosts a near-term JORC-compliant gallium resource along with other critical minerals, including rare earth elements. Rosende emphasized that the JORC Code—Australia's strict professional standard for public mineral resource reporting—ensures transparency, reliability, and technical rigor in the evaluation of these resources. The collaboration is exclusive to the Mons Project and does not extend to Nimy's other assets. Under the MOU, both parties will now begin due diligence and negotiations toward a binding offtake agreement, focusing on commercial terms such as pricing structures, contracted volumes, and delivery logistics. Nimy continues to advance development of the Mons Project, including permitting and funding efforts, to align with the timelines envisioned in the agreement. Rosende noted that if finalized, the partnership would mark an important step in building a resilient, non-Chinese supply of gallium for the U.S. market—supporting security of supply for the semiconductor, energy, and defense sectors. #proactiveinvestors #m2iglobalinc #otcqb #mtwo #CriticalMinerals #SupplyChainSecurity #StrategicMinerals #USDefense #EconomicSecurity #BlockchainLogistics #CriticalMinerals #NevadaMining #parslee #volato #gallium

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday'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 markets investors are looking sceptically at restarted US data and the outstanding Nvidia result.First, the American initial jobless claims reporting has restarted, and they say 216,700 new people filed for these benefits last week, up from 214,000 in the same week a year ago. There are now 1.727 mln people on these benefits, up from 1.66 mln a year ago and the highest since 2021.And for the record, they released their September non-farm payrolls report overnight too, claiming +119,000 new jobs created in the month. The non-seasonally adjusted data records a rise from the same month a year earlier of +1.2 mln, the least year-on-year rise since the pandemic. The related wage growth data was weak. And they also announced that they will not be releasing an October report.Meanwhile, the Philly Fed factory survey for October weakened again, including for factory orders. Inflation pressures were reported as higher. Despite all this extended depressed state, these firms say they are optimistic about the future.It was the inverse story for the same report from the Kansas City Fed. Current conditions were mildly positive and stable, cost pressures eased, but future prospects are less enthusiastic. New order levels dipped here too, but only slightly.In Canada, their October PPI came in +6.0% higher than year-ago levels, a rise. They may be surviving the trade war punishment from the US, but it is coming with higher costs.In Taiwan, their October export orders rose +25% from the same month a year ago. As high as that is, it just continues the stellar expansion they have reported all year.In China, they say they are going to extend their trade-in subsidy program, to keep their modest consumer spending levels underpinned.And as widely anticipated, the People's Bank of China kept its key lending rates at record lows for a sixth consecutive month in November. But there is increasing talk that they will be [pressured into reducing them at some stage to weigh against below-target growth.In Europe, German producer prices fell in October, down -1.8% from the same month a year ago.In Australia, the IMF told them that they should hike their GST, abandon their tax cuts, and spend more carefully if it wants to keep a fiscally sustainable economy.And Australia released its GDP by State (they call it GSP). On a real basis for the year to June 2025, NSW expanded +0.9%, Victoria by +1.1%, Queensland by +2.2%, South Australia by +1.0% and Western Australia by +1.3% from the equivalent 2023/24 year. The national rise was +1.4%. But on a per capita basis, only Queensland and Tasmania recorded gains. Nationally it was a -0.3% decline per capita.Global freight rates for container cargoes were unchanged over the past week, to sit -46% lower than year ago levels. But the weekly change masks rising outbound China to Europe rates, while outbound China to the US rates are falling. Meanwhile, bulk cargo freight rates rose +11% over the past week and are now +39% higher than a year ago.The UST 10yr yield is now at 4.11%, unchanged from this time yesterday.The price of gold will start today at US$4055/oz, and down -US$16 from this time yesterday.American oil prices have softened another -50 USc from yesterday to be just under US$59/bbl, with the international Brent price little-changed and still under US$63.50/bbl.The Kiwi dollar is now at just on 56 USc, and unchanged from yesterday. Against the Aussie we are up +10 bps at 86.8 AUc. Against the euro we are little-changed at 48.6 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just over 60.7, and little-changed from yesterday, and still its lowest since July 2009.The bitcoin price starts today at US$87,411 and down another -2.4% from yesterday and -11% below year-ago levels. In fact, it is falling as we publish. Volatility over the past 24 hours has been moderate at just on +/- 2.4%.You can get more news affecting the economy in New Zealand from interest.co.nz.Kia ora. I'm David Chaston. And we will do this again on Monday.

In this episode of SpaceTime, we delve into remarkable discoveries that illuminate the origins of our planet and the cosmos beyond.Ancient Australian Rocks Shed Light on Earth's OriginsScientists have made significant strides in understanding the formation of Earth and the Moon through the analysis of 3.7 billion-year-old feldspar crystals from the Murchison region in Western Australia. This research reveals that continental growth began relatively late in Earth's history, around three and a half billion years ago, suggesting a shared composition between Earth and the Moon following a colossal impact event. The findings challenge existing theories about the timing of crustal development and provide new insights into the early geological processes that shaped our planet.Hints of a Possible Fifth Force in NatureA groundbreaking report has emerged, suggesting the potential existence of a fifth fundamental force of nature. Researchers have observed unexpected deviations in electron transitions among calcium isotopes, hinting at a new particle, the Yukawa boson. This discovery could reshape the standard model of particle physics and deepen our understanding of the universe's fundamental forces, as scientists continue to explore the mysteries of atomic interactions.Record-Breaking Ocean Waves Observed from SpaceIn an astonishing revelation, satellites have recorded ocean waves reaching heights of nearly 20 metres, the largest ever measured from space. This episode explores how these massive waves, driven by storms, can carry destructive energy across vast distances, impacting coastlines far from the storm's origin. The findings not only validate existing wave models but also reveal new insights into the energy dynamics of ocean swells.www.spacetimewithstuartgary.com✍️ Episode ReferencesNature CommunicationsPhysical Review LettersProceedings of the National Academy of SciencesBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/spacetime-your-guide-to-space-astronomy--2458531/support.

Councillor Malik Sajjad of Gosnells, Western Australia, said that before the election, he had concerns that local voters might not accept him. Being in a new country, a new city, and coming from a different background, he was unsure whether people would trust him. However, Australia's multicultural society not only welcomed him but also gave him far more votes, support, and encouragement than expected—an encouragement that gave his efforts a whole new momentum. People chose him as their representative, transcending colour, race, and background. This success proves that in Australia, the true foundations are capability, intention, and a spirit of service. He further stated that this victory is not just an individual achievement, it is a community triumph. This trust, unity, and the essence of multicultural Australia serve as a shining example, showing that anyone, regardless of their background, can move forward and make new history through hard work. - مغربی آسٹریلیا کی گوسنیلز کونسل کے نومنتخب کونسلر ملک سجاد کہتے ہیں کہ انہیں الیکشن سے پہلے خدشہ تھاکہ شاید مقامی ووٹر انہیں قبول نہ کریں مگر آسٹریلیا کی ملٹی کلچرل سوسائٹی نے نہ صرف انہیں جگہ دی بلکہ توقع سے کہیں زیادہ ووٹ، حمایت اور حوصلہ بھی دیا۔ مزید جانئے اس پوڈ کاسٹ میں۔

What if the dream trip starts feeling like a job? We sit down with traveler and author Melissa Rodway to unpack the real highs and lows of a life built on movement—starting with a wild childhood year in Western Australia, a no-guidebook leap through Europe in the 90s, and the pre-smartphone hacks that kept her safe and curious in Costa Rica.The story turns when she quits an advertising job and heads to Southeast Asia for months of motion—Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, and China—where gritty bus rides collide with occasional five-star stays. Melissa shares how travel fatigue sneaks in, why purpose is the antidote, and the moment a seasoned traveler taught her the hardest lesson of the road: know when to go home. Those long rides turned into pages, and pages into The People You Meet, a witty, honest travel book about culture, food, and the human dramas that follow you across borders.Then we switch gears to a slower kind of adventure: five winter weeks in Quebec City during her year off. Daily cross-country laps on the Plains of Abraham, ice skating under big skies, a Nordic spa two minutes from home, and the electric roar of Carnival with its ice canoe races on the St. Lawrence. We dig into the ice hotel, maple syrup snow taffy, tourtière, French schools for all levels, and why Quebec is built for outdoor lovers in every season—plus practical tips on walkability, ferries to Lévis, nearby trails, and affordable stays that make lingering easy.If you're craving travel that's deeper, steadier, and more you, this conversation is your map.Map of Quebec CityYou can find Melissa:On Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/fly_travel_media/Her website at: https://flyrodway.comMelissa's book: The People You Meet BookSupport the showPlease download, like, subscribe, share a review, and follow us on your favorite podcasts app and connect with us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wherenextpodcast/View all listening options: https://wherenextpodcast.buzzsprout.com/HostsCarol Springer: https://www.instagram.com/carol.work.lifeKristen: https://www.instagram.com/team_wake/ If you can, please support the show or you can buy us a coffee.

Interview with Shaun Bunn, Managing Director of Empire Metals Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/empire-metals-loneee-titanium-market-disruptor-targets-2026-pilot-pant-7736Recording date: 12th November 2025Empire Metals is developing the Pitfield project in Western Australia, home to one of the world's largest titanium deposits with a maiden resource estimate of 2.2 billion tons grading just over 5% TiO2. This multigenerational asset positions the company as a potential disruptor in global critical minerals supply chains at a time when the industry faces unprecedented restructuring.The company's strategic advantage extends beyond scale. Pitfield's geology features high-purity titanium minerals formed through weathering processes in sandstone formations, eliminating deleterious elements that typically complicate conventional processing. Empire has already produced 99% pure TiO2 products, validating the ore's metallurgical responsiveness and demonstrating the viability of its innovative hydrometallurgical approach.Unlike traditional titanium processing that relies on energy-intensive smelting and generates substantial waste, Empire's three-stage process bypasses these costly operations entirely. The surface deposit requires no blasting, drilling, crushing, or grinding, with friable material feeding directly into flotation circuits. This technical differentiation, combined with low mining costs, positions Empire to deliver products at significantly lower cost than 90% of existing global supply.Management is pursuing dual revenue streams, targeting both pigment production and strategic metal feedstock for defense and aerospace applications. The company has engaged with Boeing, the U.S. Department of Defense, and other end-users to align product specifications with market demand before finalizing process design. This customer-driven approach preserves optionality while reducing downstream marketing risk.The timing proves strategic. Major producers including Rio Tinto, Venator, and Iluka are retreating from titanium operations amid Chinese price competition and tariff responses. Empire aims to fill emerging supply gaps with government support through Australia's $4 billion Critical Minerals Facility.With £11 million in funding secured and continuous piloting targeted for mid-2026, Empire maintains development momentum toward demonstrating cost competitiveness and securing end-user commitments that could accelerate the project's pathway to production.View Empire Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/empire-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

3I Atlas, Human Remains on Mars, and Moon Formation InsightsIn this thought-provoking episode of Space Nuts, hosts Andrew Dunkley and Professor Jonti Horner dive into some controversial and intriguing topics in the realm of space exploration. From the latest on Comet 3I Atlas and the implications of the U.S. government shutdown to the divisive plan to send human remains to Mars, this episode is packed with cosmic curiosities and critical discussions that challenge our understanding of space and humanity's role within it.Episode Highlights:- The 3I Atlas Dilemma: Andrew and Jonti take a closer look at the ongoing situation surrounding Comet 3I Atlas, which recently passed Mars. They discuss why NASA has been silent on the data and the fallout from the U.S. government shutdown that has left many NASA employees unable to work or communicate about ongoing missions.- Human Remains on Mars: The hosts delve into the controversial proposal by the company Celestis to send human ashes to Mars. They discuss the cultural implications and sensitivities surrounding this idea, questioning the ethical considerations of sending human remains to another planet without broader consultation.- New Evidence of Moon Formation: A fascinating discovery in Western Australia sheds light on the formation of the Moon, with findings indicating that feldspar crystals found in ancient rocks on Earth closely match those on the lunar surface. This evidence supports the giant impact theory of the Moon's origin and offers insights into the early history of our planet.- The Future of the Universe: Andrew and Jonti explore the latest theories regarding the expansion of the universe, discussing new findings that suggest the universe may be slowing down rather than continuing to accelerate. They reflect on the implications of these discoveries and how they could reshape our understanding of cosmic evolution.For more Space Nuts, including our continuously updating newsfeed and to listen to all our episodes, visit our website. Follow us on social media at SpaceNutsPod on Facebook, X, YouTube Music Music, Tumblr, Instagram, and TikTok.

Interview with Scott Caithness, Managing Director of Hawk Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/hawk-resources-asxhwk-new-exploration-model-revitalises-historic-utah-mining-district-6860Recording date: 12th November 2025Hawk Resources (ASX:HWK) is preparing to drill its flagship Cactus copper-gold project in Utah this December, targeting five high-priority prospects in a historically productive mining district. Managing Director Scott Caithness recently outlined the company's systematic exploration approach and the multiple pathways to value creation at this advanced-stage project.The Cactus district boasts an impressive mining heritage, with the original mine operating between 1905 and 1920, producing 1.3 million tons at 2% copper with gold credits of 0.3 grams per ton and 6-7 grams per ton silver. Modern exploration has validated this potential, with Rio Tinto's previous work intersecting 42 meters at 1.9% copper and 0.6 g/t gold, while multiple historical drill holes have exceeded 1.4% copper grades.Hawk has employed a sophisticated dual-track strategy, identifying both deep geophysical targets with district-scale potential and near-surface oxide mineralization that could provide rapid development opportunities. The company's comprehensive geophysical surveys and systematic soil sampling—the first conducted over these targets - have defined five priority drill targets ranked by geological confidence.The Copperopolis target exemplifies the project's exploration potential, featuring a massive geophysical anomaly with surface soils returning up to 1,000 ppm copper. A 1974 drill hole off the anomaly's edge intersected 30 meters at 0.2% copper, yet the core remains untested with potential for substantial mineralization.With A$5 million recently raised and Utah permitting expected by end-November 2025, Hawk is fully funded for its 12-hole drilling program. Initial assay results are anticipated in Q1 2026, providing regular newsflow through the critical discovery phase.Beyond Cactus, the company has secured the Olympus scandium project in Western Australia, featuring a 4km x 7km soil anomaly grading over 500ppm scandium. This provides significant optionality in an emerging critical mineral with growing aerospace and defense applications, currently valued at approximately $3-3.5 million per ton.View Hawk Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/alderan-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The Liberal Party has officially said farewell to net zero by 2050. Joined by Amy Remeikis, we're unpacking the decision, what it'll mean for the libs moving forward and how their leader, Sussan Ley, has lived to see another day at the head of the table. Plus, there's an urgent call to ban industrial trans fats from Australia's food supply over concerns of their links to cardiovascular issues. We're on the case about what trans fats actually are, why they're hidden and how Aussies can spot them at the supermarket. And in headlines today, Newly released congressional documents show Jeffrey Epstein called Donald Trump “borderline insane” in private emails before Epstein’s death; The family of murdered grandmother Vyleen White has slammed the 16-year maximum sentence for her 16-year-old killer; Reforms to improve safety in childcare and early education could be implemented nationwide by the end of the year; Psychiatrist Dr Daniela Vecchio has been named 2026 Australian of the Year for Western Australia for her work treating gaming addiction in young people.
