In this episode of Rooster Talk, Christian Easterday, Managing Director, shares with us about the latest metallurgical results released by the company. The outcome of the test has shown that the trio of projects, Productora, Cortadera and San Antonio can be treated as one ore type. This means that the processing of the ore can be done in one facility which will allow the savings in treating the ore.

The Ta Khoa Nickel-Copper-PGE Project is located 160 km west of Hanoi in the Son La Province of Vietnam and includes an existing modern nickel mine built to Australian standards, which is currently under care and maintenance.

In this episode, I am talking with Mohamed Mughal about what is happening in the Middle East in regards to investments. Mo is based in Dubai and he tells us that the Gulf states are open for business. Apparently, the investing appetite is getting large and they are looking abroad to place their funds.

Galileo Mining is a resources company listed on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) under the code GAL and is exploring for base metals in south-east Western Australia.

Since our first Coffee with Samso in May, Galileo has been very active in preparing for this moment of drilling targets. We speak of the "Truth Machine" being what all projects need or fear. In this case, I do believe that this will bring exciting times for shareholders.

This latest Coffee with Samso has Scott Williamson, Managing Director of Blackstone Minerals Limited (ASX: BSX), giving us an update on what has been happening with their flagship Ta Khoa Nickel Sulphide project in Vietnam.

I have been watching the progress over the last 6 months and Scott has been busy getting a strategic partnership secured with EcoPro.

The much anticipated Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for Andromeda Metals Limited (ASX: ADN) is finally published. James Marsh (Managing Director) talks to us about what is in the study and what it means to the company.

The market has been anticipating this PFS for a while and the recent share price movement prior to the release was in anticipation of something extraordinary. However, the decrease in share price after the release of the PFS is in no indication of the quality of the PFS.

Hot Chili Limited (ASX: HCH) has been one of my favourite companies on the ASX lately as they are progressing towards the realisation of their Tier-1 Copper-Gold Porphyry project in Chile. Christian Easterday is back telling us what has been happening since our last conversation. In that episode he described what Hot Chili is all about and the delights of a Porphyry story.

In this episode of Rooster Talk, Samso is talking to Veronica Lind from Vermilion Pinstripes, who is a "Morden Marketing" practitioner. I met Veronica through my Rooster Talk with one of her clients, My Blue Tea.  I was impressed with her website and the way it was managed and she introduced me to the creator of the website. To cut a long story short, I contacted Veronica and we had a great conversation about marketing and business development. I engaged Veronica to refocus and re-label Samso.

Andy Jiang returns to Rooster Talk and picks up what we discussed a month ago. Has the Dust settled for the Tourism Industry and what is happening with the China - Australia trade war.

Andy Jiang and I crossed paths nearly 10 years ago when he was the Director of Corporate Finance for Deloitte in Perth, Western Australia.  After his time with Deloitte, he moved on to Tourism Australia where he held the position of Head of Asia Development and General Manager, China.

This is a great conversation about real exploration with Don Smith from Lithium Consolidated Limited (ASX: Li3). The company projects are not the mega-scale but it has great technical potential. In recent years, there have been many projects claiming to be the "neurology" title but few can stand up when you look at the technical aspects of the claim. When you look at what Li3 has, they have a great old big heat source in association with a structurally altered greenstone group of rocks.
