Proactive - Interviews for investors

Vortex Energy CEO Paul Sparks joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news the company has initiated a diamond core drilling program at its Robinsons River Salt Project in Newfoundland & Labrador. The company has secured all necessary permits to conduct drilling at two core wells within the project. The company has reported hitting Salt in the west structure and the core in in the lab for further analysis.

These two core wells are situated at the East and West salt structures of the project, which were identified during a hydrogen storage capacity assessment. The primary objectives of the drilling program are to confirm the depth of the salt structures and gather geological data on both the salt and non-salt rock formations present at the Robinsons River Salt Project.

Based on available geological information, the East Salt Structure is believed to have the potential to store approximately 550,000 tonnes of hydrogen across more than 35 caverns. The West Salt Structure is estimated to have the potential to store around 250,000 tonnes of hydrogen within more than 25 caverns.

Vortex Energy's drilling program is a significant step toward assessing the project's hydrogen storage capacity and advancing its potential as a hydrogen storage facility. This initiative underscores the company's commitment to exploring sustainable energy solutions.

Baselode Energy CEO James Sykes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share details about the company's latest uranium exploration efforts during an interview with Steve Darling from Proactive.

Baselode Energy has announced the final uranium assay results from six exploration drill holes conducted outside of the ACKIO uranium prospect. These drill holes were part of a 7,512-meter diamond drilling program completed on the Hook project.

The Sandstone target area, where the drilling took place, is open to the south and along the eastern structural contact. Previous drill holes in this area have returned some of the strongest sandstone uranium and pathfinder anomalies.

Sykes highlighted that the geological understanding of the Hook project has evolved with the discovery and ongoing delineation of the ACKIO deposit. The company believes that the broader Hook project holds excellent potential for additional uranium deposits.

In addition to the Mirror and Sandstone targets, Baselode Energy plans to conduct drilling at additional regional targets in 2024. This ongoing exploration work positions the company to make further discoveries and contribute to the supply of uranium, which is crucial for various industries, including nuclear power generation.

ECR Minerals PLC (AIM:ECR) Managing Director Nick Tulloch speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive after the mineral exploration and development company announced that a reverse circulation (RC) drilling programme has commenced at the Creswick gold project in central Victoria, Australia.

Tulloch highlights the strategic focus on the two prospects areas Davy Road and Kuboid Hill and explains that ECR's approach involves RC drilling to investigate shallow gold deposits, leveraging the local expertise of their technical director and years of analysis.

The company's goal is to gather sufficient data demonstrating the economic viability of the site.

Tulloch underscores ECR's commitment to reconnecting with the community and investors, emphasising active communication and a focus on utilising company funds efficiently. He reflected on ECR's strategic shift under his leadership, including the decision to opt out of the Hurricane option in favour of more economical alternatives, and the ongoing drilling in Victoria.

Investors are eagerly awaiting the drilling results, which Tulloch believes will validate the company's direction and potentially reveal valuable gold deposits.

He says "its all well and good to say that we're drilling and we're taking the business forward - I mean that's our job. But another part of our job is also to make sure people are aware of what we're doing and that we're not just sitting behind desks thinking 'this is all very interesting'."

Mitch Hourtienne, Chief Commercial Officer at Cepton Inc discussed the evolution of LiDAR technology in a recent interview. Over the past 15 years, LiDAR costs have significantly decreased, making it more accessible.

Hourtienne highlighted Cepton Inc’s approach to cost efficiency, emphasizing their use of a low-cost base material and strategic supplier partnerships. Cepton Inc’s choice of a 905 nanometer wavelength for their laser, based on widely available silicon, contributes to affordability. In contrast, other companies using a 1550 nanometer wavelength incur higher costs due to exotic materials.

Hourtienne emphasized the importance of careful partner selection, citing a strong 100-year vision as a crucial factor. Cepton's commitment to innovation includes developing their own application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) for high-volume, low-cost production. The interview showcases Cepton Inc’s dedication to advancing LiDAR technology economically through strategic partnerships and innovative design choices.

Tharisa PLC (LSE:THS, JSE:THA, OTC:TIHRF) CEO Phoevos Pouroulis speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive after the mining company published its annual report for a 2023 characterised by challenges not only for Tharisa but for the wider platinum group metals (PGM) sector.

Pouroulis discusses what he has called the company's resilience amid a challenging year marked by weather impacts, declining platinum group metals (PGM) prices, and South African infrastructure issues. Despite these challenges, Tharisa maintained steady chrome production at 1.58 million tonnes, benefiting from a 25% increase in prices of the metal. The company navigated electricity and logistics problems, ensuring timely delivery to customers and achieving a healthy return despite the lower earnings from PGMs.

Pouroulis highlights Tharisa's adaptability and strategic focus on co-producing PGM and chrome concentrates. Addressing the lengthening of the Karo platinum project timescale, he expresses cautious optimism for the PGM market's recovery, citing potential global economic shifts and growing recognition of mining's role in sustainable development.

Financially, he says Tharisa boasts a strong balance sheet with over $269 million in cash and equivalents, enabling investment in current operations, technological advancements, and consistent dividend payments since 2016.

Pouroulis also reveals Tharisa's focus on innovation through subsidiary Redox One, developing grid-scale energy storage solutions using chrome and iron from Tharisa mines. This development aligns with the company's commitment to a circular economy and addresses broader energy storage needs.

Power Metal Resources PLC (AIM:POW) CEO Sean Wade speaks to Thomas Warner from Proactive after the metals exploration company announced two major developments: the confirmation of a drill contract for a campaign at the Molopo Farms Complex Project in Botswana as well as advancements in the Uranium Energy Exploration (UEE) IPO.

Wade details the company's strategy with the Molopo drill project, emphasising a meticulous approach in geophysical mapping and data analysis to target the T1-14 area effectively. He explains the complexities and costs of exploration programs, underlining the importance of thorough preparatory work to maximise the chances of discovery. The upcoming drill program, spanning weeks to months, will delve into 800m of depth, with initial visual analysis providing insights before lab results.

The CEO also discussed the significant step forward represented by the UEE IPO. The pre-IPO financing raised over £420,000, despite challenging market conditions, setting the stage for a more substantial capital raise in the new year. This move demonstrates Power Metal Resources' dual strategy: prioritising high-priority exploration projects while also employing a 'merchant bank' model to crystallise value for shareholders through capital market activities.
