Exciting⁉️news for the nickel industry in New Caledonia! France has stepped in to support Prony Resources with a 140 million euro💰 loan, aimed at preventing its collapse. This loan, part of a larger effort by Paris, comes at a critical time for the region's nickel producers, facing challenges from high costs📈, political tensions, and competition. Alongside the loan, Prony Resources will receive annual energy subsidies, providing stability and operational support until 2026. Rothschild & Co is leading the search for a new investor, highlighting the commitment to ensuring the industry's future.

Cordoba Minerals Corp. (TSX-V:CDB, OTCQB:CDBMF) announced an amendment to its joint venture agreement with Bell Copper Corporation, streamlining the earn-in process on the Perseverance copper project in Arizona. Under the newly revised agreement, #CordobaMinerals has adjusted its earn-in phase, committing to spend C$14.2 million by April 24, 2026, to secure an 80% interest in Perseverance. The modification consolidates the Phase 3 and Phase 4 earn-in spending requirements from the original agreement, along with additional expenditures of C$1.2 for amending the terms. The timeline for Cordoba to achieve the 80% project interest remains unchanged, with the company now poised to secure the interest directly by April 24, 2026, eliminating the two-tiered earn-in phases outlined in the initial joint venture agreement.

Shares in Bougainville Copper Limited (ASX: BOC) surged by 64.3% to A$0.575, their largest intraday gain since February 2022, following a five-year extension granted for its exploration license in the Panguna copper-gold project on Bougainville Island in the South Pacific. The Panguna mine, once operated by Rio Tinto (ASX: RIO), closed in 1989 due to civil unrest and conflicts, with concerns about mine revenue and pollution. A peace agreement in 2001 and a 2019 referendum on independence paved the way for its potential revival. While Rio Tinto divested its stake in 2016, estimates suggest it could cost $5-6 billion and 7–8 years to rebuild and fully operate the mine, which still holds substantial copper and gold reserves. Bougainville Copper's stock closed at A$0.80, marking a 128% increase and its highest level since November 2023. We, too, had to Google where in the world this was — very close to Papua New Guinea. A bit of a mining revival in the region, and we love to see it. Want to Learn More? #TheNextBigRush

It illustrates how Canadian mining is becoming the nexus of a colossal geopolitical struggle. Ottawa just pushed Chinese state-owned companies out of the sector, and the U.S. is now considering moving public funding in. The American military has a new pot of money at its disposal to help private companies inaugurate new mining projects; it's for funding feasibility studies, plant renovations, battery-recycling and worker training. https://lnkd.in/gC8kShF9
