Australian Potash Limited (ASX: APC) managing director and CEO Matt Shackleton joins Jonathan Jackson in the Proactive studio to discuss the mobilisation of an aircore drill rig to the Lake Wells Gold Project in Yamarna, via Wiluna. The drill program will target two primary areas, the West and East targets. According to Shackleton, the project spans 13 exploration licences over more than 540 km², located approximately 50 kilometres northwest of the Gruyere gold mine. The program aims to test the contact zone between the Yamarna greenstone and the granites, as well as the Ibanez trend identified by neighbouring Gold Road Resources. The program includes a 4,000m – 6,000m in-fill and extensional drill, designed to test extensions to the Yamarna shear zone and the Ibanez trend. Additionally, APC has issued 20,000,000 ordinary shares to the vendors of the West Arunta tenement E80/5778, finalising the Tenement Sale Agreement from June 7, 2023. The tenement is now fully owned by APC. APC holds a 100% interest in the West Arunta Nexus Project, an early-stage exploration opportunity in Western Australia's most promising exploration frontier. APC also holds 100% interests in the Lake Wells Gold Project and the Laverton Downs Project, both located in Western Australia's Eastern Goldfields and prospective for various minerals. #ProactiveInvestors #ASX #AustralianPotash #LakeWellsGoldProject #Yamarna #AirCoreDrilling #GoldExploration #Mining #ASX #GruyereGoldMine #WestAruntaProject #ExplorationLicences #GoldMining #IbanezTrend #DrillingProgramme #YamarnaShearZone #CleansingProspectus #MineralExploration #WesternAustralia #GoldResources #APC #LavertonDownsProject #RareEarthElements #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Rumble Resources Ltd (ASX:RTR, OTC:RTRFF) MD Shane Sikora tells Proactive the company has resumed reverse circulation (RC) drilling at the growing Earaheedy Base Metals Project, 110 kilometres north of Wiluna in Western Australia, to test multiple new gravity lows along the 9-kilometre Navajoh Southeast Trend. An airborne gravity survey flown late last year identified a strong association between these gravity lows and higher-grade zinc-lead feeder faults at the Tonka and Navajoh prospects. #ProactiveInvestors #RumbleResources #ASX #BaseMetals #EaraheedyProject #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews
This episode from the series In Conversation: on the rural pathway to Fellowship explores the holistic nature of care by examining the firsthand stories of trainees and their approach to cases in rural settings. The podcast seeks to explore trainees dealing with cases in rural everyday circumstances and how these cases impacted their training experience.This podcast series was made possible by funding from the Australian Government through the Specialist Training Program. The Specialist Training Program is an Australian Government initiative to support specialist medical training in settings beyond traditional public teaching hospitals, including regional, rural, and remote and private facilities. Dr Anna Norris has worked in Victoria and Tasmania for the majority of her medical career and was lucky to complete her first three years of the RANZCP Fellowship programme at NWMH in Melbourne/ Naarm. She immensely enjoyed a six-month CAMHS rotation in Alice Springs/ Mparntwe in 2018 and learnt a great deal during this time. Anna went on to move to London and finish a postgraduate certificate in Psychoanalytic Studies at the Tavistock Clinic; COVID-19 thwarting her plans for the associated master's when she headed back to Australia, seeking, somewhat naively (!), to avoid the pandemic. Since then, and following the birth of her first child, she has been loving living and working in Tasmania, including with the Perinatal and Infant Mental Health Service in Hobart/ nipaluna. She is engaged in CL Psychiatry advanced training and has interests in mitigating the effects of psychological trauma, maternal and infant psychiatry, and psychodynamic psychotherapy. In her spare time, she dances to the Hokey Pokey with her daughter, makes chili-laden one-pot vegetarian meals and is trying to learn the trick of dead lifts at the gym.Dr Timothy (Tim) Styles completed his medical studies at the University of Western Australia and commenced postgraduate training in psychiatry in 2019 after seeking diverse exposure to medical and surgical specialties as a junior hospital doctor. Tim has been fortunate to work across a number of geographic regions in WA and at several different metropolitan health services during his training. As a medical student, Tim had a placement in Wiluna in the Mid-West region of WA. As a trainee, he worked in Broome at the Kimberley Mental Health and Drug Service. Tim is undertaking certificate training in Psychiatry of Old Age, and has special interests in rural psychiatry, neurostimulation, and an increasing enthusiasm for psychotherapy. In his spare time, Tim enjoys playing tennis, loyally (blindly) following his AFL team, and taking his two-year-old Springer Spaniel to the beach. He is also a keen (and sometimes experimental) cook with slight hoarding tendencies when it comes to culinary gadgetry – which greatly exasperates his wife.Feedback:If you have a topic suggestion or would like to participate in a future episode of Psych Matters, we'd love to hear from you.Please contact us by email at: psychmatters.feedback@ranzcp.orgDisclaimer:This podcast is provided to you for information purposes only and to provide a broad public understanding of various mental health topics.

Wiluna Mining Corporation is a Perth based, ASX listed gold mining company that controls over 1,600 square kilometres of the Yilgarn Craton in the Northern Goldfields of WA. The Yilgarn Craton has a historic and current gold endowment of over 380 million ounces, making it one of most prolific gold regions in the world.
No music, no talking, just the sound of a rain storm in the desert. Wiluna is a town on the Traditional lands of the Martu people in Western Australia. It's on gorgeous arid country, about 960km east of Perth. After days of dry heat in excess of 40, it was late afternoon when a huge storm rolled in. Nowhere has storms like the desert, where the hot air rises off the ground to meet the clouds with huge rumbles and rolls that expand across the whole horizon. The rain continued on and off all night and into the next day when I got up in the morning to smell the wet sands and concrete of the town. Each burst of rain was greeted by bird song throughout the sunrise, and as the human occupants of the town slowly woke up. Listening notes from Ann Jones: 04:28 Here comes the rain on the tin roof. The galahs scatter, calling. 5:10 A bonded pair of mudlarks (tiwily-tiwilypa), sometimes called peewees or magpie larks. sing a duet together. 10:50 The pied butcherbirds (kararaputa) sing through the rainfall — a repetitive, slightly melancholy melody, and occasionally their diagnostic cackling call that almost sounds like yelling "missing you!" at the end of a quick phone call. 14:30 This repetitive chirping call is a honeyeater, but which sort? Perhaps a yellow-throated miner (piiny-piinypa)? Comment below if you know! 16:24 White-plumed honeyeater (Inatjara) calls sound a little bit like a slide whistle. 20:40 This is probably the alarm call of the white-plumed honeyeater, letting its colleagues know of a danger or annoyance. 21:28 The mudlarks stay in touch and reinforce their relationship by repeating their duet throughout the day. 26:40 Little corellas start to fly and call in tremulous, quaver-y voices. It also sounds as if there is at least one young one with them begging for food, making a monotonous raspy grinding call from a tree. 28:30 Cutting through above all the other birds is the tiny black-and-white willie wagtail (tjitirttjitirt). This call is diagnostic of the willie, and it will make it through the day and night. Listen also for the scolding chika-chika-chika call that the willie will make occasionally, probably to stay in touch with its family members in this context. You can also here two variations on the mudlark duets in this sequence, along with the little corellas. 37:16 There are two possibilities for this corvid call – a torresian crow or a little crow (not tiny ones, that is their species name: little crow). 37:40 The willie wagtail is back! 41:30 The birds all seem to be responding to the rain, or perhaps a change in pressure associated with the rain? There are so many calls from the different species here. 42:20 The incomparable sound of rain on a tin roof. 48:38 The crows are at it again! 47:00 You can occasionally hear a deeper click as water drops actually hit my microphone through this section, the drops were so big they were bouncing up off the ground and up onto the little box I'd put my recorder on under a shelter. My microphone covers were absolutely saturated after I finished this recording.

Interview with Milan Jerkovic, Exec. Chairman of Blackham Resources/Wiluna Mining (ASX:BLK)Jerkovic inherited a gold mining mess 10-months ago. The company got itself into some financial strife, and Jerkovic got into the hot seat. Blackham Resources had previously spent A$200M, and the two previous owners had also spent A$200M. So Jerkovic has a lot infrastructure and data to work with, and it owns a portfolio of gold assets, in addition to an inflated balance sheet. Now, Jerkovic is on the comeback trail.Blackham Resources is a Western Australian gold producer. The company is currently churning out 60,000oz gold pa, but with ambitions to ramp this up to 300,000oz pa. The real battle here is the resource itself. Jerkovic needs to figure out the right balance between high-grade sulphide and low-grade oxide.Jerkovic's strategy for Blackham Resources falls into 5 steps:1.) Solidify the balance sheet. 2.) Increase operational cashflow.3.) Transform the business into a gold concentrate operation.4.) Expand existing production.5.) Exploration. Exploration.

Speaking on: ‘Land and Water Degradation – Turning a Threat into an Opportunity' Major General Jeffery was born in Wiluna, Western Australia in 1937 and educated at Kent Street High School and the Royal Military College, Duntroon. He graduated into Infantry and served operationally in Malaya, Borneo, Papua New Guinea and Vietnam, where he was awarded the Military Cross and the South Vietnamese Cross of Gallantry. After command of all combat elements of the Army from platoon to division – including the Special Air Service Regiment – he retired in 1993 to assume the appointment of Governor of Western Australia, which he held for almost seven years. His major interests during his tenure were in youth affairs, education, environment and the family. For his services to the State he was appointed a Companion in the Order of Australia, a Commander of the Royal Victorian Order and a Citizen of Western Australia. On his retirement as Governor in 2000 he established in Perth, a not for profit strategic research institute – Future Directions International (FDI) – whose objective is to examine longer term issues facing Australia. On 20 December 2000 he was awarded an Honorary Doctorate of Technology by Curtin University. On 11 August 2003 he was sworn in as the twenty-fourth Governor-General of the Commonwealth of Australia, serving in that capacity until 5 September 2008. Upon his retirement as Governor-General, he accepted Chairmanship of FDI and Soils for Life, along with patronages of a number of other not-for-profit organisations. He was appointed the National Advocate for Soil Health in 2003 by Prime Minister Gillard, where his objective is to ensure a food secure nation, by encouraging farmers to adopt regenerative agricultural landscape management practices. Major General Jeffery is a Companion of the Order of Logohu (PNG), a Knight of St John, a Citizen of Western Australia, a Paul Harris Fellow and an honorary life member of the Returned and Services League.

WASM Alumni Podcast 2 Bill Beament, Chairman of Northern Star Resources, President of the WASM Alumni talks to Kyle De Souza. Beament set his sights on a mining career at the young age of 13 after attending a careers expo and learning about the Western Australian School of Mines in Kalgoorlie. His dad had plans for him to take on the family farm machinery business, but Beament had other ideas. Like many in WA’s mining alumni, he headed to Kalgoorlie after high school to study mine engineering, and ended up in the red-dirt town for eight years, gaining experience in underground goldmining. “In Kalgoorlie, you’re immersed in the hard rock industry, but mainly gold,” he says. “Back then iron ore was a taboo word, no one wanted to go into iron ore, that was for people who couldn’t get jobs in the gold industry. Coal was a dirty word.” He started his career working underground for four years for a contracting company and then moved on, because he knew by this stage he wanted to work his way into a management position. Barminco, an underground mining contractor, sought him out and he joined its team at the age of 24, taking on the role of second in command at an operation in Wiluna, in the state’s Mid West. His potential was noticed and he was sent to run a copper mine in Queensland, at the age of 27. “That was a sink-or-swim opportunity and was a real defining moment,” he says. Three years later, he was put into the Perth head office for the remainder of his 8 1/2-year stint with the company and was given the job of general manager of WA operations overseeing 13 mine sites and 1000 employees. “What they probably didn’t realise was I didn’t want to be a contractor for the rest of my career and they had been grooming me as a future MD.” After leaving Barminco, Beament started his own underground mining contract company, which he ran for about 18 months before the mine it was contracted to went under. “I earned my first $1m and then lost it in the first year, but we paid off all employees and suppliers and had no debt and had a little bit of cash leftover, which I used to put into Northern Star,” he says. Beament doesn’t believe it is luck that has got him to where he is, but that it is the culture of the company he and his team have built. “We have a work ethic in this company that reflects from the top to the bottom and there is a culture of calculated risk,” he says. My board has backed me and my team 100 per cent and that is a pleasure to work in. They give us the licence to do what needs to be done and the results speak for themselves. Name
On this Radioactive Show we hear from the Leonora Public Meeting held on Wongatha country, that was held after this years Walkatjurra Walkabout in the Goldfields of Western Australia. The public meeting was held on Saturday 1st September in Leonora, Goldfields, Western Australia. It shed light on WA's nuclear free campaign and the proposed Yeelirrie and Wiluna uranium mines and the radioactive waste dump. The public meeting gave a voice to affected communities and an opporunity for the public to ask questions on each of the proposals. Kado Muir, leader of the Nalia tribe and an applicant on the Mantjintjarra Nalia peoples native title claim from Leonora was a brilliant MC, and speakers included Vicky Abdullah (Tjiwarl), Delsan Stokes (Wongatha elder), Senator Rachel Siewert (Australian Greens), Piers Verstegen, Director Conservation Council of WA (CCWA) and Robin Chapple (WA Greens). I’d like to acknowledge and give a massive thanks to Tjulma Pulka Aboriginal Radio Station, to Debbie and Libby Carmody who recorded this important meeting and gave me permission to use.
On this show, I want to take you all out bush, onto Wangkatja Country, in the Northern Goldfields of Western Australia. It’s here that traditional owners have been fighting for over 40 years to protect country and keep uranium in the ground. Every year for the last 7 years, the Walkatjurra Walkabout have taken supporters from across Australia and the world to walk on country with traditional owners on their land, and the talk about the threat of uranium mining to their cultural heritage and sacred sites, water, plants, creatures and the land.The Walk takes about a month, and we were out on country for the whole of August this year. It covers over 270km between Wiluna and Leonora, and over 30 supporters joined the walk. On this show, we’ll join the walk in its first week, to find out more about the proposed uranium mines at Wiluna and Yeelirrie, two of four potential uranium mines companies are trying to get started in WA.
Today we speak with walk organiser Marcus Atkinson midway through the sixth annual Walkatjurra Walkabout, a one month walk from Wiluna to Leonora from August 4th – September 2nd. Visit Nuclear Free WA for videos.No Dump Alliance member Dash Taylor Johnson from the Australian Education Union talks to us about the current work of the alliance: focussing on opposition to the Federal Governments' proposal for a National Radioactive Waste dump, the launch of a new petition and the importance of unions to be involved in the struggle.
The State Environment Minister of WA, Albert Jacob, has given state approval to the Yeelirrie uranium mine proposal despite opposition from Traditional Owners and his own government's Environment Protection Agency's findings. The EPA recommended against approval due to the fact that if the mine went ahead, it would almost certainly cause the extinction of a number of Subterrean Stygofauna, tiny underground creatures unique to that area. The proposal now sits awaiting Federal approval, along with two other mines from the Goldfields region in WA - Mulga Rocks and Wiluna.I spoke with Richard Evan, Koara tribal leader and co-founder of WANFA, who is a traditional owner at Yeelirrie and Mia Pepper, from the Conservation Council of WA. I also spoke with Jim Green, from Friends of the Earth, who talked about the global situation of the Nuclear industry and how that impacts on proposed projects like the one at Yeelirrie.
In which courage is shown, nerve is held, a hit is pinched, rookies disappear, Wiluna is suddenly not attractive, the veterans get it done, spectators are barked at, the Ladywhips get their first points & in the process would have made Clint Johnson proud!
Walkatjurra Walkabout 2015It's been 5 years of the Walkatjurra Walkabout, a walk from Wiluna to Leonora in Western Australia, led by Traditional Owners and focusing on preventing the expansion of the nuclear industry on country. In this show we hear excerpts from Kado Muir, a Yeelirie Traditional Owner, on his thoughts about the impacts of the mining industry, native title and Aboriginal sovereignty. We'll also hear from 3 first-time walkers, Opal, Mils and Reuben, abuot their experience on the walk. They reflect on learning first hand from Traditional Owners as well as how remote struggles connect to activism across the country.
Approval has been given for the state's first uranium mine to be constructed near the small desert town of Wiluna in Western Australia. But appeals have been lodged against it, with concerns on how this will affect the community. Hosted by Karla Grant. Living Black Series 17 Episode 7, Broadcast 21 September 2012 CC #LivingBlackSBS
