We’re straight into the shorts today, chatting through a heap of the most shorted ASX miners and pondering why.

 Then, we delved into the EU’s latest attempts to support its auto-makers by ratcheting up tariffs on Chinese made vehicles, before we picked through who could buy Spartan (SPR) on the back on its run.

 Big copper producer MMG have been making some fascinating moves in capital markets which drew us in, and to round off we discussed Galena (G1A) and Hastings (HAS) tough journey.

Why are these miners so hated?

We sat down with Stephen Wood of Eiger Capital to chat through his views on the world of resources.

 Stephen has been invested in a host of companies across many commodities that we love to chat about, from goldies to iron ore, and uranium to rare earths. 

 He’s got a philosophy on picking miners coming to production in a bullish market which we got a kick out of debating with him.

When to pick miners (Stephen Wood Interview)

We’ve got plenty of stories from around the grounds, starting with 29Metals (29M) finalising their offtake financing, then onto Southern Cross (SXG) & Mawson Gold (MAW.t) tying the knot.

 MinRes (MIN) seem to have pushed their $200m Red Hill (RHI) payment down the road a touch, while oil & gas M&A; rumours are in the air.

 Bannerman (BMN) knocked out more study numbers while AIC Mines (A1M) hit their FY24 guidance and Spartan (SPR) shared further gold hit. To wrap up, we had some word on the decline regarding BHP’s Nickel West (BHP).

Bonus ep time Money Miners.

 We sat down with 4 (3 in person, 1 virtually) UGC’s who earned their way onto the show through their phenomenal effort in sharing the Director’s Special newsletter.

 Chatting with these Money Miners, we ventured from exciting small caps to M&A; at the big end of town, from valuing gold in the ground to resource nationalism and plenty in between.

 It was a privilege to sit down & have this cracking conversation.    All information in this podcast is for education and entertainment purposes only and is of general nature only.   The hosts of Money of Mine (MoM) are not financial professionals.

Beers and Mining Smack Talk with 4 GCs

The Money Miners have long requested a small cap special, and we’ve done it.

 We brought on geological whiz Ahmad Saleem to help us navigate some hot regions, companies and commodity all across the world.

 First up we went to the Cobar to pick through the exploration hopeful, including AGC, PEX and TLM and more. Then, it was over to Africa, first in the Copper-belt looking at PSC and onto WIA and their Namibian gold ambitions. 

 Lastly, closer to home, we ventured to the West Arunta to look at WA1, ENR, CGR and RCR.
