James Bay Minerals (ASX: JBY) executive director Andrew Dornan joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s highly anticipated listing on the ASX today.

Named after the “red hot” James Bay lithium province in Quebec, the company made its ASX appearance after successfully completing a highly sort after $6 million initial public offer.

Backed by its vastly experienced board and management, James Bay Minerals already holds one of the largest lithium exploration tenures in the area with around 224 square kilometres of prospective ground on its books.

The company currently holds 104 claims in James Bay and has entered into three binding agreements under which will provide it with an opportunity to acquire a 100% interest in a further 333 claims.

With a significant portfolio of ready to test exploration assets and cash in hand, James Bay Minerals is ready to hit the ground running to further evaluate a number of prospective targets

International Graphite (ASX: IG6) chief executive officer and managing director Andrew Worland joins Small Caps to discuss the company's release of a major resource upgrade at its Springdale graphite project in Western Australia.

The significant jump in resource numbers has led to Springdale being ranked as the second largest known graphite deposit in Australia.

The independent estimate has revealed a new Springdale resource that is 3.4 times higher than the previous estimate.

Significantly the company has moved 27% of the mineral resource to the indicated category.

Lifted by the results of an extensive drilling campaign in 2022/23, the upgraded resource estimate also received a 10% boost from the new Mason Bay graphite discovery, located just 2km from the original Springdale mineral resource.

This major milestone comes as International Graphite continues long term mine planning and moves strategically to establish itself as one of the first vertically integrated producers of battery anode graphite in Australia.

Terra Uranium (ASX: T92) executive chairman Andrew Vigar joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s positive success with its maiden diamond drill hole at the Parker Lake project in the world class Athabasca Basin in Canada.

The company’s maiden diamond hole successfully confirmed the uranium potential at Parker Lake, providing the company with increased confidence at is contemplates a much bigger drilling campaign.

The hole intersected a promising 1.5m section which returned elevated radioactivity readings and a core sample has now been sent off for further analysis with results expected within the next four weeks.

Terra has a busy work campaign mapped out for the next six months including further drill planning, a full district structural analysis and helium sampling.

The ultimate aim is the creation of a 3D earth model to be used in qualifying targets for the next drill campaign.

Far East Gold (ASX: FEG) chairman Paul Walker joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s upcoming exploration plans at Trenggalek copper gold project and the recent significant investment made by Eurasian Resources Group.

The company has defined several untested high-magnetic bodies which it believes has the potential to be large scale, porphyry type copper gold targets.

Far East is now further assessing the potential of those priority prospects with a detailed geological mapping program underway.

The potential at Trenggalek was highlighted recently when Eurasian Resources made a $4 million investment. An unlisted company 40% owned by the Republic of Kazakhstan, Eurasian identified Trenggalek as its reason for taking a stake in Far East.

Covering 12,813 hectares, the Trenggalek asset includes a significant database of information from extensive, advanced exploration work previously carried out on the project.

Notably, the area also contains the granted the Izin Usaha Pertambangan – Operasi Produksi (IUP-OP) mining licence for operation and production, which is valid for 10 years until 24 June 2029 with the ability for the company to extend the IUP-OP for two additional 10 year periods.

Critical Resources (ASX: CRR) managing director Alex Cheeseman joins Small Caps to discuss the company's ongoing exploration success at the Mavis Lake lithium project in Ontario, Canada.

The company recently intersected multiple wide mineralised zones in drilling at the “Swell Zone" discovery at Mavis Lake.

Notably, the wide intercepts were drilled outside of the current mineral resource envelope and Critical Resources is confident the discovery will add significant tonnage to its next resource upgrade.

The company is particularly excited that every drill-hole also displayed localised sections of very high-grade lithium mineralisation.

To date the Swell Zone remains open and the company is continuing to explore that upside as it seeks to establish Mavis Lake as the largest single-site, JORC code compliant lithium resource in Ontario.

Felix Gold (ASX: FXG) chief executive officer and managing director Anthony Reilly joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s continued drilling success in its significant property holdings in the rich Tintina Gold Belt of Alaska’s famous Fairbranks district.

After identifying further major targets across its Treasure Creek gold project and beyond in 2022, Felix has started its 2023 exploration campaign off with a bang.

The company recently received significant assay results from drilling at the NW Array prospect which show wide intersections of near-surface commercial grade gold mineralisation enriched with high-grade critical mineral antimony.

Further drilling will now help the company produce a maiden JORC resource for the southern part of NW Array in Q4 2023.

Felix is also looking at options to accelerate the road to development and has identified a potential near-term value opportunity through the supply of gold ore to the nearby Fort Knox mine.

Tambourah Metals (ASX: TMB) chairperson Rita Brooks joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s recent successful capital raising, upcoming drilling plans for its suite of Western Australian mineral assets and the appointment of a highly experienced new director.

In early August Tambourah attracted strong market interest when it secured firm commitments to raise a total of $2.5 million.

Those funds, along with the estimated injection of a further $1.2 million from a share purchase plan, will be used to accelerate activity at its critical and precious metals projects.

A major focus will be the company’s plans to undertake drill programs in the rich Pilbara region, including the promising Tambourah gold and lithium project.

The funds will also assist in advancing Tambourah’s strategic partnership with Chile powerhouse SQM in the exciting Julimar district north of Perth.

Bringing a wealth of experience to those projects will be new director Wayne Richards.

A 37 year industry veteran, his appointment has strengthened and enhanced the technical and corporate experience of the Tambourah board and management team.

Surefire Resources (ASX: SRN) managing director Paul Burton joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s continued run of success at its Victory Bore project in Western Australia.

The company recently signed a memorandum of understanding with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia covers the proposed concentrate processing of the Victory Bore vanadium production.

The Victory Bore vanadium bearing magnetite concentrate is now in line to be processed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia for a variety of products, opening up a significant new market for this highly sort after product.

The Kingdom itself is a significant user of vanadium products, particularly in its steel sector. Meanwhile, Surefire has unveiled an opportunity to produce another high-value critical commodity from the Victory Bore operations.

Recent testing has confirmed that Victory Bore’s high-grade aluminium oxide has the potential to provide low-cost feedstock for High Purity Alumina (HPA) production.

Named as a critical mineral by the Australian government, HPA is currently valued at between $37,000 – $60,000 per tonne.

Significantly, the aluminium oxide can be obtained from waste rock when Victory Bore’s high-grade vanadium resource is mined.
