Dr. Thomas Mumford, Vice President of Exploration at Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT – OTCQB:SCTSF), joins me to review some results from the recent study on utilizing ore sorting, their research into pursuing a Direct-Shipping Ore (DSO) development strategy, the upcoming Maiden Resource Estimate, and an overall exploration review from 2024 and look ahead to the 2025 season at the Scottie Gold Mine Project, located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. Thomas reviewed the advancements in ore sorting and how it paired well with their mineralization, with both XRF and XRT. This correlates well with the proposed DSO strategy, because of the ability to substantially increase grade while reducing the volume of material to be shipped and the resulting positive economic implications. Using XRF ore sorting technology, the operation will eliminate the need for a gold processing plant and tailings facility, thereby significantly reducing the capital required and resulting in a minimal environmental footprint. When reviewing their direct-ship ore strategy, Thomas highlighted that Scottie has one of the closest gold projects to a deep-sea shipping terminal, which based on its location is positioned in one of North America's cheapest commercial shipping lanes to Asia. In addition to the ease of a proposed open-pit mine, which already has an existing mine permit, there is also key external infrastructure in place, such as power lines and hauling roads right to site. Thomas then provides a solid recap of last year's exploration program and key drill targets and milestones at the Blueberry Contact Zone and Scottie Gold Mine area. This year's program will be working on doing some infill drilling to convert categories from inferred to measured and indicated, but also following up on the discovery of the new Wolf discovery, the C&D veins, and some other new targets. All the prior years drill results are being compiled at present building towards a Maiden Resource Estimate that is targeted to be out to the market in a few weeks as the next key company milestone. If you have any questions for Thomas regarding Scottie Resources, then please email them in to me at Shad@kereport.com.

Proactive's Tylah Tully breaks down Just the Facts of the latest news from Eclipse Metals Ltd (ASX:EPM). Eclipse has confirmed extensive rare earth element mineralisation at the Grønnedal prospect within its Ivigtût Project in Greenland. The company utilised HyperXRF technology to assess historical drill core, identifying mineralisation that extends to a depth of at least 50 metres. This data has led to a conceptual exploration target ranging from 175 to 245 million tonnes of REE mineralisation. The company also observed high neodymium concentrations in core from six historical diamond drill holes, with consistently high neodymium ratios from surface to at least 200 metres of depth. These findings indicate a significant rare earth deposit, featuring elevated levels of medium rare earth elements. In addition, Eclipse has pinpointed seven conductive targets for further exploration, based on a previous airborne electromagnetic survey. It estimates that the mineralisation could extend as deep as 500 metres or more. The next phase of the project involves conducting spot chemical analysis to further refine and validate the XRF results, aiming to accurately measure the resource's potential. #ProactiveInvestors #EclipseMetals #ASX #RareEarthElements #Neodymium #IvigtûtProject #GrønnedalProspect #REEExploration #MiningNews #HyperXRF #MineralDiscovery #GreenlandMining #DrillCoreAnalysis #MREE #ElectromagneticSurvey #Mineralisation #ExplorationTarget #MiningProjects #NeodymiumDiscovery #GlobalMining #MiningUpdate #REEPotential #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Interview with Tim Moody, President & CEO of Pan Global Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/copper-explorers-aiming-to-fill-the-growing-supply-gap-5598Recording date: 4th July 2024Pan Global Resources, a copper exploration company, has recently made a strategic move that could significantly enhance its value proposition for investors. The company has acquired a new high-grade copper property in northern Spain, complementing its existing projects in the southern part of the country.The acquisition is particularly noteworthy due to the exceptional grades reported from initial sampling. President and CEO Tim Moody revealed that samples from the Profunda site showed copper grades as high as 10.3%, substantially above the global average for copper deposits of around 0.4%. Moreover, the samples indicated significant presence of valuable by-products including cobalt, nickel, silver, and gold, potentially enhancing the project's economics.This new property has a rich mining history dating back to the 1870s, with major operations running through the 1930s. The historical context provides Pan Global with valuable data to guide their exploration efforts, including underground sampling and mapping information from previous work conducted in 2016.Currently, Pan Global is conducting a cost-effective reconnaissance program, including a 1000-sample soil survey and detailed geological mapping. The company is utilizing portable XRF technology for rapid, on-site analysis, allowing for efficient initial screening of mineralization. Importantly, this work is being conducted within the company's existing budget, demonstrating prudent financial management.Near-term catalysts for investors include the results from the ongoing ground exploration work and a planned drilling program. Moody indicated that the company aims to drill one or two holes at the Providencia mine site before year-end, which could provide crucial validation of the high-grade mineralization suggested by surface sampling and historical data.The timing of this acquisition appears favorable given the macro environment for copper. The global transition to renewable energy and electric vehicles is driving increased demand for copper, with some analysts predicting a significant supply deficit in the coming years. In this context, high-grade deposits like the one Pan Global is exploring become particularly valuable, as they typically allow for lower production costs and higher profit margins.Moreover, the project's location in Spain, a stable jurisdiction with well-developed infrastructure and a history of mining, adds to its appeal. As geopolitical tensions grow in some traditional copper-producing countries, projects in stable, mining-friendly jurisdictions may command a premium.While the initial results are promising, it's important for investors to remember that this is still an early-stage exploration project. The planned drilling program will be crucial in confirming the extent and continuity of the high-grade mineralization. However, if Pan Global can successfully delineate a substantial high-grade resource, it could attract attention from major mining companies and potentially lead to significant value creation for shareholders.In summary, Pan Global Resources' new high-grade copper project in Spain presents an intriguing opportunity for investors interested in the copper sector. The combination of exceptional grades, valuable by-products, favorable jurisdiction, and increasing global copper demand creates a compelling investment thesis. However, as with all early-stage exploration projects, investors should closely monitor the company's progress and consider the associated risks before making investment decisions.View Pan Global Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/pan-global-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

European Green Transition CEO Aiden Lavelle joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce promising results from recent grab samples taken at the Djupedal prospect, the nearby Bersummen area, and the newly identified Stora Lockerum structure, all located within the Olserum REE project in south Sweden. High-grade samples of dump material at Djupedal assayed 4.79%, 5.8%, and 11.77% TREO (Total Rare Earth Oxides). This fieldwork has allowed the team to increase their understanding of the system, extending the strike length of the mineralization at Djupedal to 1 km, and 900 m to the south, extending the recently discovered Stora Lockerum structure to up to 500 m following its discovery in March. Lavelle also told Proactive that a sample from the March sampling results, which exceeded the detection limits, was re-assayed by XRF methods and assayed 15.27% TREO, of which 3.67% is high-value NdPrDy oxides. Six rock chip samples collected at the newly identified Stora Lockerum structure, 900 m south of Djupedal, assayed up to 3.88% TREO with an average of 1.73% TREO. Historic trial workings for iron were also discovered, confirming the link between the magnetite iron and REE mineralization in the district. Four samples from the Bersummen area assayed between 0.9% TREO and 2.51% TREO, with samples up to 290 m apart, defining a potential new mineralized trend northwest of Bersummen. With these positive results, the company believes that EGT's fully permitted low-cost drill program, scheduled for H2-2024, could confirm a district-scale system and further project upside. This would support the aim of attracting a partner to fund a larger-scale program, enhancing the project's development potential. Lavelle emphasized that the continued success of their fieldwork is critical for expanding the understanding of the mineralized systems within the Olserum REE project. The recent discoveries and high-grade assays underscore the potential for significant rare earth element deposits in the region, which could play a crucial role in meeting the increasing global demand for these critical minerals. #proactiveinvestors #europeangreentransition #aim #egt #RareEarthDeposits, #UlsterProject, #SouthSweden, #GeologicalSurvey, #Mineralization, #Fieldwork, #JupiterProspect, #RareEarthOxides, #DistrictScale, #ExplorationDrilling, #ResourcePotential, #RadnorMetals, #MineralizedStructure, #BasementArea, #GeologicalDiscovery, #MiningExploration, #SustainableResources, #EnvironmentalImpact, #FutureDrillingPlans #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Western Metallica Resources Vice President of Exploration Giovanni Funaioli joined Steve Darling from Proactive to shared updates regarding the company's exploration activities at the Luz Maria and Cana Brava 1 targets. Funaioli revealed that Western Metallica Resources is currently conducting geophysical and field mapping activities at these projects, building upon previous work that identified strong magnetic anomalies coincident with large alteration footprints characteristic of Andean copper-molybdenum porphyry systems. The company plans to complete approximately 16-line kilometers of pole-dipole Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical surveys in the near term. These surveys aim to identify areas of sulphide-rich mineralization and potential blind intrusions beneath altered Cretaceous sedimentary rocks and recent colluvium. Funaioli emphasized that the acquisition of geophysical data is supported by an in-house geophysicist with extensive experience in exploring for porphyry and intrusion-related systems in the Andes region. This geophysicist is responsible for daily quality control of the data, as well as processing and modeling. Simultaneously, Western Metallica Resources is conducting systematic portable-XRF soil data acquisition to vectorize the distribution of copper (Cu) and molybdenum (Mo) at the surface. This is complemented by pole-dipole IP geophysical data acquisition to identify sulphide-rich and/or resistivity anomalies, indicating potential mineralized bodies beneath sedimentary and recent colluvial covers. The ongoing field programs aim to extend mapping and sampling beyond the main creeks where mineralized intrusive outcrops have been found to date. This is intended to confirm the presence of significant and continuous copper-molybdenum porphyry mineralization with a higher level of geological confidence and across a broader alteration footprint. Western Metallica Resources believes that integrating this large dataset will provide a comprehensive understanding of the prospects' potential, supporting the next phase of scout drilling expected to commence by Q3-2024. #proactvieinvestors #westernmetallicaresourcescorp #tsxv #wms #mining #CanyaBravaProject #PeruMining #ExplorationUpdate #DrillingProgram #GeophysicalSurveys #CopperMining #Molybdenum #MineralExploration #MiningIndustry #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews
Andrew Hanuszek of Evident explains what quality professionals need to know about using XRF, the role of automation, and how it aligns with today's trends.
As our geo-toolkit expands, how can we equip ourselves to deal with these large volumes of highly diverse, dense data that are available and at higher speeds than ever before? This week's episode is a companion to episode 47 (Core Sensing Technology) and host Britt Bluemel (Global Business Development Manager, ALS GoldSpot Discoveries) is joined by experts in the field of big data wrangling. They discuss considerations when dealing with data from core sensing systems, with the aim of empowering geologists with better decision-making tools throughout the mining value chain. New out this week is also a great paper in the SEG Discovery Magazine by Anthony Harris and co-authors - Empowering Geologists in the Exploration Process - Maximizing Data Use from Enabling Scanning Technologies. Check it out for diagrams and case studies that demonstrate the use of core scanning technology.In this week's episode, our first guest, Dr. McLean Trott (Director, Ore Body Knowledge at ALS GoldSpot Discoveries) just completed his PhD on the topic of tackling big data and integration of various data streams, and how to extract the most value from datasets, including image data. Mac also discusses the utility of point measurement compared to line scanning or full core imaging, with an emphasis on fit-for-purpose data, while considering bottom line factors like speed and cost of data acquisition. Next, we're joined by Dr. Jack Milton, VP Geology at Fireweed Metals, and he provides the ‘end user' perspective. Fireweed Metals has used XRF core scanning technology for several years and Jack describes some of the key benefits and real time decision making that is enabled by this technology. Jack also discusses good connectivity for transferring these huge data files (their on-site scanner has its own dedicated Starlink system) and the necessity of high quality calibrations when collecting XRF data in the field. Our final guest, Brenton Crawford (Datarock's Chief Geoscientist) cautions us not just to choose the coolest machine, but to select the sensor that's right for the job. He discusses utilizing scanning data to create geometallurgical domains, and how project success can be increased by including your IT team in the early stages of the conversation. Next week, Anne Thompson will be back with three exceptional guests, to discuss the geology of lithium and explore three different host environments, brines, clays and pegmatites.Our theme music is Confluence, by Eastwinds.
Drill core scanning technology is rapidly developing for use in exploration and mining. The future holds great promise if we can leverage all the data sets available from multiple sensors, but critical for success is understanding how the sensors and scanning systems work. What are the right questions to ask when picking our tools? Host Britt Bluemel, Global Business Development Manager for ALS Goldspot Discoveries, discusses three different types of sensors: hyperspectral for mineralogy, X-ray fluorescence (XRF) for elements and laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) for data at the level of atoms. Setting the scene in the first segment is Cari Deyell, Principal Spectral Geologist, Veracio. Cari takes us through the fundamentals of reflectance spectroscopy and builds out the case for mapping mineralogy from exploration through to mine development and ore body knowledge. The mineralogical data set provided by #spectroscopy can be enhanced when integrated with XRF and RGB photography. This integration will lead to fundamental advances in how we understand and mine ore bodies. Our next story focuses on the benefits of using XRF scanners on drill core with Michelle Legat, Vice President at GeologicAI. Scanning up to 650m per day, they are able to map the elements present and correlate with grades and minerals. Good data from any system is important and Michelle addresses key parts of the data collection process, to ensure that you get the best possible result. Acquiring XRF data also means a better understanding of mobile and immobile elements, supporting lithogeochemistry and produces some exciting results for exploration programs. François Doucet founder and CEO of Elemission, joins Britt for the last conversation and takes us through the background of LIBS and how it relates to other well-known geochemical analysis. Francois tells the story of the ground breaking moment of Curiosity landing on Mars in 1999 to the founding of Elemission, applying LIBS to the mapping of drill core. Scanning rates are dependent on the grain size of the minerals, with adjustments to higher speeds for pegmatites and coarse-grained rock. A breakthrough technology that takes the mapping of core down to the level of atoms. Next week Britt will be back to explore how to handle the volumes of data generated by core scanning systems for use in all parts of the mining value chain. Our theme music is Confluence by Eastwinds.

Empire Metals Ltd (AIM:EEE) CEO Shaun Bunn speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive London after the resource exploration and development company revealed fresh indications of titanium at its Pitfield Project in Western Australia. The potential titanium deposit was initially revealed back in the spring, and fresh results from surface sampling showcasing high-grade titanium concentrations. Bunn says that the surface sampling program, conducted over recent months in previously unexplored areas of the license, revealed extraordinary results. Many samples exhibited titanium dioxide (TiO2) concentrations exceeding 10%, with a peak of 21.5%. The CEO emphasises the importance of these findings, setting the stage for potential high-grade zones within the vast mineral system. The Pitfield project's diamond drill program, initiated in late September, has completed three holes across the extensive anomaly, notably the Mt Scratch area. Bunn reveals that handheld XRF testing confirmed mineralization throughout the entire depth of the drill holes, reaching 350 meters below the surface. The consistency across all three holes, even at a significant distance, has exceeded expectations. While awaiting final assay results from the diamond drilling, Bunn expresses enthusiasm about the project's scale, describing it as possibly one of the largest titanium systems yet reported. The challenge now lies in identifying high-grade zones for concentrated mining and understanding the mineral distribution for effective processing.
Eric Krafft, the CEO of Leading Edge Materials, recently shared exciting news with Steve Darling from Proactive regarding the company's latest developments. Leading Edge Materials has received promising assay results from chip samples collected at its Bihor Sud project, signalling positive progress in their exploration efforts. The chip samples encompassed a range of minerals, including Co-Ni-Au from Gallery 7 and Cu-Zn-Pb-Ag from Gallery 4. These samples were carefully collected from mineralized zones that were visually identified through mapping and handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) analysis. The spacing between samples was maintained at approximately 1 meter along the strike, allowing for a thorough assessment of the extent of mineralization within the gallery walls. This initial chip sampling campaign serves as a crucial step in the company's exploration process, providing valuable insights into the characteristics of the mineralized zones. These insights, in turn, will guide Leading Edge Materials in planning their next steps for the project. In line with their commitment to systematic and data-driven exploration, Leading Edge Materials intends to follow up on these chip sample results with a more extensive channel sampling campaign. The data gathered from this campaign will play a pivotal role in shaping the company's future exploration efforts. These future endeavors may include underground drilling to further delineate the mineralization and assess its economic potential. These encouraging results represent a significant milestone for Leading Edge Materials, showcasing their dedication to advancing their projects in a methodical and scientifically informed manner. As they continue to gather data and explore the full potential of their Bihor Sud project, the company is well-positioned to achieve further success in the field of mineral exploration and development. #proactiveinvestors #leadingedgematerialscorp #tsxv #lem #otcqb #lemif #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews
American Rare Earths CEO Donald Swartz joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share an update regarding the company's exploration efforts and significant mapping and sampling work at Halleck Creek. The comprehensive summer initiative has unveiled the potential for a larger and higher-grade rare earth element (REE) resource at Halleck Creek. The sampling program included the analysis of 189 surface samples via XRF (X-ray fluorescence), with 52 samples sent for confirmatory assay analysis in high-grade target mining areas. Swartz also shared that the company has successfully completed a core hole to a depth of 305 meters, demonstrating the presence of rare earth element mineralization throughout, as detected by XRF analysis. This depth significantly exceeds previous drilling, which was limited to less than 175 meters. Importantly, the deposit remains open at depth. With GPS-confirmed geology, the company's staff geologists are optimizing future drillhole locations, establishing JORC (Joint Ore Reserves Committee) exploration targets, and determining the placement of conceptual mine layouts and facilities. These developments signify American Rare Earths' dedication to advancing its rare earth element projects and expanding its resource base. #proactiveinvestors #americanrareearths #asx #arr #otcqb #arrnf #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

During this multidimensional work, Peter used unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV's) equipped with novel radiation detection systems to explore the meter-scale contamination trends as well as cutting-edge materials science methodologies to examine the microscopic fallout material that was released into the surrounding environment. Following a stint working in the nuclear industry and after having gained expertise in radiation detection systems and materials science, Peter obtained a highly prestigious Royal Academy of Engineering (RAEng) Research Fellowship in 2020. In this research, he works alongside other international experts in the field to develop novel sensory platforms for deployment across multiple applications. Dr Martin has established himself as an international expert in nuclear materials, radiation detection, reactor accident scenarios, and radiological release incidents arising from nuclear facilities. He is frequently invited to give talks on his areas of expertise around the world, and he has worked extensively with global media outlets to give expert commentary on topical issues across the nuclear sphere.
If you hit .300 in baseball Hall Of Fame If you shot 50% basketball You're an icon If you go 47-47 in drilling You're Green River Gold As Gold holds firm at $2,000 and the electric vehicle revolution propels demand for battery metals, the resource industry is undergoing a significant transformation. With EVs projected to reach a staggering $7 trillion market by 2030, small-cap resource companies are thriving. However, this success presents investors with a challenging decision: Should they focus on the allure of Gold or seize the opportunities in the burgeoning battery metals sector? Green River Gold is a small cap resources company that offers investors both thanks to assembling a powerhouse set of projects in BC that include: Quesnel Nickel/Magnesium/Talc Project Fontaine Gold Project Kymar Silver Project KaLi Lithium Pegmatite Project What they have in common is being in some of British Columbia's most highly prospective mining districts. All 47 Nickel Holes Successfully Hit A remarkable standout is the Quesnel Nickel Project, where Green River Gold has achieved a flawless record of success in all 47 holes drilled so far. This remarkable accomplishment underscores the immense potential of the project. The momentum grows stronger with every hole drilled. Green River Gold's Quesnel Nickel Project boasts the extensive Deep Purple magnetic anomaly, spanning about 14 linear km and encompassing roughly 6.6 sq km, indicating substantial mineral promise. Currently on their 47th consecutive hole, they consistently encounter nickel, magnesium, cobalt, and chromium from the bedrock surface. Drilling covers approximately 9 km of the anomaly's 14 km length, with exploration opportunities extending to the far North-West and South-East ends." Kyle Townsend, the Mine Manager for Green River Gold Corp says, "As we continue our step out drilling on Zone 1, with drill holes WK-23-01 and WK-23-02 drilled 1.1 kilometers apart, the consistent assay results highlight the continuity of mineralization at the Quesnel Nickel Project. These findings further validate the potential for a significant and continuous mineral resource in the project area." Green River Gold has successfully completed its inaugural field reconnaissance program at the KaLi Pegmatite Property. Located in the Kamloops Mining District, British Columbia, this 100%-owned property yielded promising results as pathfinder elements were identified through handheld XRF analysis. The program, conducted between August 10 and August 14, 2023, aimed to evaluate the potential for Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum-bearing pegmatites, copper, and molybdenum porphyry systems. Covering 1059.5 hectares of land, the KaLi Pegmatite Project holds significant historical exploration data. The focus has historically been on Molybdenum, but the current findings underscore the potential for Lithium Bearing Pegmatites, a previously unexplored avenue. Green River Gold Corp. has initiated substantial geological work on its Fontaine Gold Property in Central British Columbia. Covering over 200 square kilometers, it straddles significant terranes, with neighboring mineral claim groups owned by Osisko Development Corp. and Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd. The company is revisiting the Galleon area, a part of the Barkerville Terrane, with promising lead, silver, and gold assays from initial grab samples. Furthermore, Green River Gold has expanded its portfolio with the acquisition of the Midnight Special Project, a 244.25-hectare area northwest of Lillooet. This strategic move underlines the company's dedication to exploration and expansion. Now, sit back, relax, and listen to the interview with Perry Little to learn more about Green River Gold's strategic positioning in multiple mining districts and their exploration efforts across a range of commodities. Green River Gold $CCR offers investors diversified exposure to the mining sector and the chance to be part of an exciting journey.

Show Summary: “It causes so many things because it's one of the most potent neurotoxins known to man, and it also impacts pretty much every biological system, but there's no outward symptom.”Moms are known for being very protective of their little ones. But the question is, how far are they willing to go to give the best life to their kids? How much effort can they give to raise awareness to their fellow moms about the toxins contributing to children's brain damage?In this episode, Juanique and Gina ask Tamara Rubin everything she knows about the harmful effects of Lead. Tamara is a child health advocate, author, environmental activist, and documentary filmmaker. Her son was acutely poisoned when a painter they hired used an open flame torch to burn the paint off their house's exterior. Now, he has severe OCD, has ADHD and Dyslexia, and all sorts of learning disabilities. This ignited her mission even more, to tell the world, specifically moms, to protect their kids from the dangers of Lead.She publishes new blogs almost every day and educates people where it exists, such as toys and even cooking dishes. Listen as she shares tips on properly choosing the best materials you can use at home to minimize your family's exposure to Lead.Important LinksGutsy Health WebsiteLead Safe MamaMisLEAD: America’s Secret EpidemicInstagramYoutubeFacebookExceptional Highlight:Main forms of exposure are inhalation and ingestion. But the thing is it's not like eating paint chips. That's a myth. A child doesn't need to eat a paint chip to be poisoned.The Lead industry have made a concerted effort to hide this information from us intentionally, to hide the damaging impacts of LeadThe same people who worked on the tobacco industry campaigns to make sure that you think cigarettes are safe are those people who also initially designed the Lead poisoning obfuscation campaign, making you think that Lead paint is safe.Show Highlights: Why is Lead a silent epidemic?Tamara 1:08But the reason it's a silent epidemic or a secret epidemic is because there's no outward symptom.Do any toys have any kind of metal in it?Tamara 8:38I do want to give people some hope. As much as there's Lead in everything, we also need to not be afraid and we need to not live in fear.How does XRF instrument work?Tamara 13:25 - If your readers or listeners go to eBay and look for a used XRF instrument, they're going to find used ones from 5 to $10,000. The problem is that's not the right instrument. The instrument I use is the one specifically used by the Consumer Product Safety Commission.Support the show (https://www.mygutsyhealth.com/gutsy-family)
This webinar will investigate the development of complex societies in the Lebanese coastal zone during the Early Bronze Age (EBA). New evidence shows that coastal Lebanon, with its unique mountainous setting and ample water resources, developed a distinct pathway to complexity. Dr Kamal Badreshany will discuss ceramic and architectural evidence from recently excavated sites in the region to assess the economic underpinnings of EBA communities. He will examine the distribution of EBA settlement in coastal Lebanon with a view to understanding the underlying logic, and to contrast the distribution of EBA settlements with that documented for other parts of the Levant during this time. The webinar will be chaired by Professor Graham Philip. About the speakers: Dr Kamal Badreshany leads the Durham Archaeomaterials Research Centre, an analytical research facility based in the Department of Archaeology that offers advanced chemical and materials analysis for academia and industry. He received his PhD from the University of Chicago in 2013.

This week we're digging deep into capital allocation courtesy of our all-star panel discussion from the Canadian Mining Symposium in London, U.K., in May. Discussion ranges from mergers and acquisitions to dividend policy, and beyond! The panel members include: Stephen R. Mullowney, managing director & partner, Consulting & Deals, PwC; Patrick Anderson, president and CEO, Dalradian Resources; Rob McEwen, executive chairman, McEwen Mining; Ed Sterck, director, BMO Capital Markets; Ian Pearce, chairman, New Gold; and moderator John Cumming, Editor-in-chief, The Northern Miner. Meanwhile, Lesley digs into x-ray fluorescence technology (XRF) in reference to Barrick Gold's (TSX: ABX; NYSE: ABX) ongoing socio-political issues in Tanzania. The Canadian major holds a 63.9% equity interest in Acacia Mining (LON: ACA); the the largest gold producer in the African country with three operating mines, namely: Bulyanhulu, Buzwagi and North Mara. Barrick has been negotiating with the Tanzanian government over a halt on concentrate exports that President John Magufuli instituted on March 3.

The ongoing technical study and conservation of an important 1513 hand-colored, printed edition of Ptolemy's Geographia at the Library of Congress has posed interesting challenges, especially in terms of the treatment of select maps that are in poor condition due to the presence of verdigris pigment on a poor quality paper, as well as a later restoration treatment. The speakers highlight the results of quantitative x-ray fluorescence (XRF) trace element analysis before, during, and after treatment of several maps, and discuss how this method of analysis has served as a key aid in the treatment decision-making process. Speaker Biographies: Sylvia Albro is a senior paper conservator at the Library of Congress and the Phillips Collection. John Bertonaschi is a senior rare book Conservator at Library of Congress. Lynn Brostoff is a preservation scientist in the Preservation Directorate at the Library of Congress.
