The Assay’s Post

A "rising star" in resources leadership: Monash Engineering and Commerce alumna Anna Wiley, who was appointed in January 2024 to run BHP's copper assets in Australia, has been profiled by The Australian Financial Review in a special report for its Women in Leadership Awards. She says she feels humble about her responsibilities to BHP and to Australia, and about the role copper can play in decarbonisation. https://lnkd.in/e-pBZpU6 #ThisIsMonashEngineering #Resources #Mining #ResourcesEngineering

via Mining.com.au A large #vanadium deposit, plus several other strategic metals complete with a thirty year mine life. Viking Mines' Canegrass Project is shaping up to be an important polymetallic ore body. The results of the pit optimisation study (POS) have proven extremely successful, outlining multiple open scenarios for each of the three deposits that make up the Canegrass Project. Plus the resource now includes #copper, #titanium, #ironore, #nickel and #cobalt. #VKA MD & CEO, Julian Woodcock, commenting on the March results of the POS said: “The results of the POS have exceeded my expectations and reaffirmed the company’s belief that there is substantial inherent value within this exceptional vanadium/magnetite project…The study has delivered and appears robust, even at our most conservative scenario where only revenue from vanadium is assumed. Allowing for additional revenue from the iron, copper, nickel and cobalt further substantially reinforces the project.” Watch the full interview: https://loom.ly/iUU7-_M #VikingMines #ASX

Awesome how our friends from Helios are evolving. And how their top-notch team is augmented by a world-class advisory board and first-rate partners. 👍 Fresh tailwind for their brave mission to provide a green steel solution which beats the unit economics of blast furnace brown steel making. As their CEO & co-founder Jonathan Geifman once put it with such inspiring courage: “We completely disregard carbon credits on purpose: We want to show that this process is more efficient at its core. We don’t want to rely on subsidies or taxes in order to make this technology work.”  In my opinion, the only way: true innovations that help decarbonizing our industries without undermining their competitiveness and impairing standards of living and the growth perspectives of emerging and developing countries.

The JORC 2012-compliant Resource at our Cerro Bayo Silver-Gold Project in the southern region of Chile has doubled to 50.2Moz at 311g/t silver-equivalent. Our Interim Executive Director Ray Shorrocks said: “This is an outstanding start to our growth strategy at Cerro Bayo. It reflects the quality and value of the acquisition and the huge scope for ongoing increases in the inventory. “The underground grades are exceptional and the mineralisation remains open. In addition, the more data we review, the more prospectivity we see. With drilling now underway, we expect to generate a steady stream of assays as we look to extend the known boundaries of the mineralisation and continue creating value through Resource growth. “Increases in the Resource will be particularly valuable for Mitre shareholders given the processing plant and other infrastructure right next door."

To say the future of this wonderful whenua is to go back to extractive industries and the dangerous and the inherently dirty business of mining, is such a denial of the power of this country to produce great technology and innovation. This bill, if enacted, takes us back to the 1950's or before. Invest in technology that saves species, Aotearoa is a world leader, invest in technology that reduces the awful carbon footprint of our largest industries, invest in talent and youth and innovation. Leave mining and drilling in the coffin it deserves, regardless of the benefits to the sectional interests represented by New Zealand First. Christopher Luxon, grow strength, show real leadership. I know Primus inter pares is not CEO, but show leadership. https://lnkd.in/gQiv9WjJ
