First Phosphate's CEO, John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss China’s proposed ban on the export of battery cathode and lithium processing technologies, including lithium-iron phosphate (LFP) technologies. Passalacqua emphasized the geopolitical and strategic significance of this decision, calling it a pivotal moment for phosphate technologies on the global stage.

"This is the moment of recognition of just how important this whole supply chain is," said Passalacqua, noting that China’s move places LFP and iron phosphate technologies on par with defense contractors and advanced computing in terms of strategic importance. He highlighted how First Phosphate has been proactively building a robust North American supply chain to mitigate the risks posed by such international disruptions.

Passalacqua warned of the potential consequences for North America if a domestic supply chain like First Phosphate’s were not in place, describing the proposed ban as a wake-up call for Western governments and industries. He called for a renewed focus on local LFP production and reaffirmed First Phosphate’s commitment to its accelerated timeline. “We’ve been building as quickly as humanly possible since the beginning,” he said.

The discussion also explored the alignment of U.S. policies under Donald Trump with First Phosphate’s vision for a self-reliant North American supply chain. Passalacqua viewed the Chinese export ban as a validation of the company’s strategy and underscored the rising demand for LFP in global markets.

As LFP technologies become a focal point of international trade and energy strategy, First Phosphate’s efforts to secure a North American foothold have positioned it as a critical player in the evolving landscape of clean energy and sustainable battery production.

Auctus Advisors founding partner Stephane Foucaud talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about Sintana Energy Inc., highlighting why it is an exciting time for the company and its investors. Namibia has become a global hotspot for oil exploration, with supermajors like BP, ENI, and Chevron investing heavily in the region. According to Foucaud, Sintana stands out as the only small-cap public company providing exposure to Namibia's high-impact drilling programs.

Foucaud detailed that Sintana holds interests in three key blocks (PEL 83, 90, and 87) within the Orange Basin, where recent discoveries have uncovered billions of barrels of oil and gas. He noted that last year’s Mopane discovery in PEL 83, with operator Galp Energia, adds significant value to the company's portfolio. Foucaud explained that Mopane's estimated 3 billion barrels of recoverable resources equate to a net value of $160 million for Sintana.

With three firm wells set to be drilled in 2025, including Chevron's Kapana-1X, Foucaud underscored the high potential for material discoveries that could significantly rewrite Sintana’s valuation. He added that adjacent drilling by companies like BP and Total could also have positive read-through effects on Sintana's assets.

In conclusion, Foucaud described Sintana as an attractive investment, noting its downside protection through Mopane’s value and its substantial upside from the upcoming exploration programs.

Sintana Energy CEO Robert Bose recently spoke with Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s second exploration campaign in Namibia’s Orange Basin. The campaign is focused on Blocks 2813A and 2814B, governed by Petroleum Exploration License 83 (PEL 83), which is operated by Galp Energia. Sintana indirectly holds a 49% interest in Custos Energy, which maintains a 10% working interest in PEL 83, alongside NAMCOR’s 10% stake.

The PEL 83 Joint Venture recently announced a significant milestone: the successful drilling and logging of the Mopane-2A well (Well #4), which spud on December 2. The exploration revealed hydrocarbons in two reservoirs: a gas-condensate column in AVO-3, characterized by thin net pay within its sweet spot, and a light oil column in AVO-4.

Bose highlighted the reservoirs' promising characteristics, including high-quality sands with excellent porosity, permeability, pressure, and fluid properties. Additionally, the reservoirs exhibited minimal CO2 content and no H2S or water contacts, further underscoring their quality.

The data collected from Mopane-2A is now under analysis to deepen the understanding of the Mopane complex and evaluate its commercial viability. Meanwhile, the drillship has relocated to the Mopane-3X exploration well (Well #5) site, where drilling is set to target two stacked prospects, AVO-10 and AVO-13. Spudding for this well is scheduled for early January.

This progress reflects Sintana Energy’s commitment to advancing its exploration initiatives in one of the world’s most promising emerging hydrocarbon basins.

Fah Mai Holdings Group Inc UK head Jacob Carter talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the state of the whisky industry in 2024 and expectations for 2025.

Carter highlighted both the challenges and opportunities the sector has faced. He noted significant declines in Scotch whisky exports, with volumes falling by 10.20% during the first half of 2024 due to global economic pressures, inflation, and tariffs. Auction values also saw steep declines, with a 50% drop in fine and rare whisky prices year-over-year in Q2. Additionally, the luxury segment has been under pressure, especially for high-end bottles aged over 50 years.

Despite these challenges, Carter pointed out areas of growth, such as increased demand in emerging markets like India (up 17.30%) and Japan (up 13%). Resilient brands like Glenfarclas and Port Ellen have shown modest gains, and iconic labels like Macallan continue to hold their position despite market volatility. Looking ahead to 2025, Carter predicts sustained demand for rare whiskys, further diversification across whisky brands globally, and the rise of digital platforms leveraging blockchain and NFTs for authentication.

To new investors in 2025, Carter advised starting with research and understanding market trends, setting clear budgets, diversifying portfolios, and consulting industry experts. For more information, visit Fah Mai Holdings at fahmaiholdings.com.
