DID YOU KNOW? Did you know that one of the most fascinating wonders of the mining world is the Bingham Canyon Mine in Utah, USA? The mine is owned by Rio Tinto Group. Imagine a site so massive that you can actually see it from space. This open-pit copper mine is an engineering marvel, stretching nearly 4 kilometers wide and diving more than 1.2 kilometers deep into the earth. But here is where it gets even more impressive—Bingham Canyon has been in operation since 1906. Over a century of hard work, innovation, and dedication has transformed this site into a record-breaking mine that continues to produce some of the world's most important copper. It is not just the size that is awe-inspiring—it is the legacy. Think about all the technological advancements that have taken place since the early 1900s. From the use of simple tools to cutting-edge machinery, this mine has evolved with the times, playing a crucial role in everything from electrical wiring to renewable energy solutions. So, next time you pick up a device powered by copper, you might just be holding a small piece of Bingham Canyon's incredible history😊. #MiningFacts #MiningLegends #EngineeringMarvel #CopperKings #SustainableMining #BinghamCanyon

🚀 Did you know? The world’s largest underground salt mine isn’t in the middle of a desert but beneath Lake Huron in Canada! 🌊🧂 Meet the Goderich Salt Mine—an engineering marvel and a hidden gem of industry. The salt beds, part of the Michigan Salt Basin, are not just rich in salt but also brim with minerals like bromine and iodine. Discovered by accident in 1866, when oil was the goal but salt was the find. Sam Platt’s “oops” moment led to uncovering North America’s first salt bed. 🌟 Fast forward to today, and the Sifto Salt Mine, part of Compass Minerals, stretches 1,800 feet below Lake Huron. 🏔️ With over 7 million tons of rock salt produced annually, it’s crucial for winter de-icing in the Great Lakes region. ❄️🚜 Imagine a mine with its own bus system underground and 30+ routes. 🚌🔧 The “room and pillar” mining technique ensures safe and efficient salt extraction. 🌟 👷♂️ Fun Fact: The mine's primary shaft is as deep as the CN Tower is tall—553.3 meters! 🏢🔝 The Goderich plant, located just 4 kilometers away, packages and ships this vital mineral across North America. 🌍📦 So, the next time you sprinkle salt on your fries 🍟 or see trucks salting icy roads, remember the incredible journey that tiny grain took from deep beneath Lake Huron to your table. #MiningInnovation #GoderichSaltMine #GeologyGems #IndustrialMarvels #EngineeringExcellence Video Courtesy: Goderich

Rock on, Arca 🌚🤘 The Canadian #ClimateTech company is doing something incredible in the Australian outback: It is testing a new technology that can turn air into rock in a world-first project. ⛏️Arca’s rovers are currently unearthing magnesium-rich ultramafic rock at BHP’s Mount Keith Nickel West Mine in #WesternAustralia. 🌑Found in mine tailings, ultramafic rock reacts naturally with carbon dioxide to form solid crystals. 💨This process; called carbon mineralisation, is a natural way to permanently remove excess carbon dioxide from the air. 💡 Arca’s proprietary carbon mineralisation technology accelerates this natural sequestering process. The technology can help mining companies such as BHP #decarbonise their operations and tackle #ClimateChange. Arca says #Australia offered the ideal geology and topography to test its technology. The company now has plans to work with another three Australian miners. Check out the incredible photos, then read why Australia is the place to develop and test clean mining technologies: https://ow.ly/AkqP50Rc038 #NetZero #CarbonCapture #CleanMining

We’ve identified new, significant resource growth at our Wannaway mine in Kambalda. A recent detailed reinterpretation of historical geological and geophysical data has revealed that the two lowermost mineralised shoots, N03 and N04, are substantially larger than previously interpreted and both remain open down plunge. N03 and N04 are located immediately below existing mine development, with drilling to date testing the channel down to 700 metres below surface. Wannaway is located 14 kilometres northwest of our Cassini mine. Its published remnant Mineral Resource totals 3,900 tonnes of nickel metal at 3.1% nickel. The Wannaway channel is a compelling opportunity for significant resource growth and future drilling will target additional mineralisation in down plunge positions. Multiple Kambalda mineralised channels, such as Miitel, Mariners and Otter-Juan, extend for several kilometres and consist of numerous ore shoots that have been developed past one-kilometre vertical depths.

***Saturday Morning Coffee*** EDM Resources Inc. TSXV. EDM - Why you should take a look: #1. - It's ALREADY BUILT. It currently takes up to 15 years to permit a new mine in Canada. Calling it as it is, if someone suggested I "take a look" at a company that planned to develop a mine in Nova Scotia... I wish everyone success, but I wouldn't get too excited. It's a long process. EDM's project is a 100% owned, permitted operation with fully built mine and mill....that alone is a big deal. #2 - THE LOCAL COMMUNITY WANTS IT BACK IN PRODUCTION. How do I know this? Because I attended EDM's community BBQ last summer and a hundred enthusiastic local people showed up. This....takes guts.....because you never know what nutjob you're liable to attract. Know who attended? Young families...job seekers with their kids....Seniors, neighbors, Indigenous friends, hunters and fisherman who all said, "this is exactly what the area needs". #3 - Mark Haywood, President, CEO & Director 4TH GENERATION MINING ENGINEER - 25 years of mining industry experience himself and holds degrees in both Mining Engineering and Law. He's worked with AngloGold Ashanti, GOLD FIELDS, IAMGOLD Corporation, Ivanhoe Mines, BHP, and Pacific Placer Gold Corp at various open-pit and underground mining operations around the world, including leadership positions of Chief Mining Engineer, Mine Manager, and General Manager. Additionally - He lives nearby. His office is AT THE MINE. Not in some fancy building 1000's of kms away. He answers calls himself, and if I remember correctly he even produced the video you see below. Mark is instantly likeable, you can tell his team adores him, and he's "all-in committed." Reach out to him directly, I guarantee you'll get a response: mhaywood@edmresources.com At a Glance Shares Issued 26,251,143 | Market Cap 3,675,000 Year High 0.62 | Year Low 0.12 | Friday Close 0.14 Mine History & Website - https://lnkd.in/g7fCCKiT PFS - https://lnkd.in/gUAeUkEp When I was touring PDAC last year with my friend, Don Hansen, Private Investor and frequent presenter on the Investing News Network, he thought Mark Haywood & EDM Resources Inc. were one of the top stories of the entire show. Take a look, add it to your watchlist, and keep a close eye. With only 26 million shares outstanding and fully built - it wouldn't take much of a catalyst to see this spring to life. If there are any other companies you think I should share with my friends, please leave a name in the comments. I didn't plan it, but some weeks I get more than 70,000 views on these things. I can't promise to post, (I need to do my own due diligence) but I promise to take a serious look. Kind thanks for reading and watching. Have a wonderful Weekend. Sean@tuffordgroup.com

#CelebratingIndustryExcellence 👏 Here are our four well deserved AMEC Awards 2024 finalists, proudly sponsored by Hetherington: 🔶Chalice Mining Limited - for 'Opening New Exploration Areas' at their Gonneville critical minerals discovery on farmland just outside of Perth. The mineralisation at Gonneville extends to the north across the Julimar Complex, covering farmland and parts of the extensive Julimar State Forest (JSF). Challenging standard practices, Chalice developed and implemented innovative exploration techniques and rigorous procedures to undertake one of the lowest-impact exploration programs of its kind, ensuring that the JSF's values were preserved. 🔶Metro Mining Ltd (ASX:MMI)- for 'Legacy Kaolin Mine Rehabilitation' at their Bauxite Hills Mine located approximately 100km north of Weipa on western Cape York, Queensland. The mining lease included an area of approximately 14 hectares of legacy disturbance which has since undergone rehabilitation works. The legacy disturbance area was part of an abandoned kaolin mine and is situated within the riparian zone and flood plain of Namaleta Creek. Namaleta Creek is regarded as having high cultural and environmental significance. Metro Mining is returning the land disturbed by previous kaolin mining to a post-mining landform that is stable, self-sustaining, safe, and with similar land capability and ecological values as were present prior to mining. 🔶Kimberley Mineral Sands - for 'Thunderbird Project', the first mineral sands mining project in WA not located on the swan coastal plain. Baseline surveys identified the presence of the Greater Bilby (threatened) within the mine site area. Management plans approved for the species require a level of pre and post landform disturbance tasks that are unique and targeted specifically at ensuring habitat restoration is effective for the omnivorous, burrowing mammal. KMS is working to achieve positive outcomes for the Greater Bilby by using a combination of traditional cultural knowledge, western science and modern technologies. 🔶Westgold Resources Limited - for 'Lady Rosie Geomorphic Waste Rock Landform', successfully implemented a 1.1 million tonne capacity geomorphic landform, setting a new industry standard for environmental excellence. The innovative design, which is believed to be the first time it has been used in Australia, incorporates principles from natural landform evolution, and has yielded significant benefits in terms of erosion control, sediment management, and rehabilitation.
