Recharge Metals (ASX: REC) managing director Felicity Repacholi-Muir joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s deal to add a significant lithium project in the “red hot” James Bay region of Quebec, Canada.

The company has picked up 219 mineral claims within two contiguous blocks across 107.2 square kilometres at the Wapistan Lithium Project.

Located 120km north of Recharge’s flagship Express lithium discovery, the Wapistan area has not received any lithium or critical minerals exploration to date.

However, the project is situated in a James Bay area that has been proven to hold commercial lithium potential.

Recharge has joined a stream of Australian juniors that have raced to James Bay where there is not only significant lithium potential, but critical support from the Canadian government.

ACDC Metals (ASX: ADC) chief executive officer Tom Davidson joins Small Caps to discuss the company's recent drilling and mineralogy success at the Goschen Central mineral sands project in Victoria.

Recent testwork has highlighted Goschen Central's potential to be one of the world's most promising mineral sands projects.

The company is now planning an infill drilling program to tighten its understanding of the resource size.

ACDC also discovered high-value monazite amongst the zircon and rutile mineralisation uncovered in drilling to date.

Monazite is known for its relatively high concentration of rare earth elements (REEs) and ACDC has access to a unique processing technology which it can take advantage of.

Frontier Energy (ASX: FHE) managing director Sam Lee Mohan joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s recent signing of a hydrogen development collaboration agreement with Dampier to Bunbury Natural Gas Pipeline (DBNG) owner AGIG.

The companies have agreed to work together to investigate the potential injection of an agreed percentage of hydrogen into the Mainline South section of the DBNGP. The end result would see the pair making joint submissions to the relevant WA Government departments.

The WA Government has set a goal of up to 10% hydrogen being blended with natural gas across the state’s gas network.

Both Federal and State governments are in the process of amending national gas laws and regulations to bring hydrogen blends within the national gas regulatory framework.

Recently, industry body, Smart Energy Council completed a pre-certification for a zero carbon certification scheme at Frontier Energy’s Bristol Springs renewable energy project in Western Australia.

The pre-certification was based on a review of Frontier’s definitive feasibility study in March of this year for Bristol Springs and assessed all direct and indirect greenhouse gas emissions associated with the production and storage of renewable hydrogen.
