Its so crazy to see numbers like this being bandied about by the big banks. 👇 I remember when we thought $500/oz was a lot for gold to go up to in 2005.

A desk job, or working from home. KIDS: Rather be a miner or a mining engineer where you get paid to blow things up and break expensive equipment. Its sooo much fun & you'll travel round the world earning $100k-1M/yr doing it depending on how good you are at it.

Just to give you an idea of the size of immediately available lithium resources globally, here is a google earth image of just one - the Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia (white in pic inset) against New York, Pennsylvania & Washington D.C. for scale. Its why I generally can't get

And you thought #mining was expensive? At $15/hr wage, that's $31.50 per tonne to clear up garbage, EXCLUDING transport & disposal costs.

Following on from my poll👇 I did some comparisons of the top 18 gold producers with combined market cap of $247 billion, and came up with some interesting results that I hope you'll find useful. Figure 1: a) Considers Q1 2025 on Q4 2024 production, AISC & Operating

We have been collecting very precise temperature rainfall & temperature data at our mine for the last 67 years. 2025 is YTD tracking normally, ahead of the rainy season. The linear trend is unsurprisingly flat over the period of a human lifetime. Evidence that demands a verdict.

All mining projects are high risk ventures, even when things are going well, See below.👇 It follows then that anyone investing into any ExplorCo. is undertaking an exponentially larger risk: You'll have better odds putting it all on red in a casino.

Anglo is unfortunately a ghost compared to what it once was 30 years ago. With the timing of sale of its platinum business just before the soaring prices & now anticipated sale of its diamond arm, there will be even less.....

Proving once again, the major miners are not the safest despite all the systems and bla, bla, bla. This time its Newmont. How the heck can these people not have a second escape route for a FOG incident? Its UG safety 101 🙄

$NEM, despite a smallish safety setback, did predictably better in Q2 thanks to a realized gold price of $3320/oz & despite a 4% drop in gold production, AISC was also 4% down. My calculated operating contribution was up 33% to $2,553M with a corresponding 15% increase in SP

I forgot to mention $NEM's realized price of gold was only up 12.7% from quarter to quarter from $2,944 to 3,320/oz. That leverages a 28% lift in operating contribution using their realized prices.😃 (Sticklers pls note: I used my industry average Q1 realized price of gold of
