      <title>Rift Helium targets AIM debut with scalable Tanzania project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rift Helium plc (AIM:RIFT) CEO Charles FitzRoy talked with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s upcoming AIM listing, its strategic helium assets in Tanzania, and the growing importance of primary helium supply in global markets. FitzRoy outlined how Rift Helium is positioning itself as a key player in a sector where over 90% of supply is currently produced as a byproduct of natural gas.

He explained: “Over 90% of the worlds helium currently is produced as a byproduct of natural gas… Rift is not associated with hydrocarbons… it is going to be primarily helium.” This distinction underpins the company’s strategy to develop a scalable, standalone helium project in a proven basin, adjacent to existing discoveries in Tanzania.

FitzRoy highlighted recent global supply disruptions, particularly linked to Qatar, which have removed a significant portion of helium production and reinforced the need for reliable primary sources. With a P50 resource estimate of 19BCF, Rift Helium’s flagship licence represents a sizeable opportunity compared to global demand of 6.5BCF last year.

The CEO also detailed the company’s near-term plans following its £8 million IPO raise, including 3D seismic work and drilling two targeted wells expected in the next 12 months. He emphasised the company’s cost efficiency due to relatively shallow drilling depths and its “third mover” advantage, benefiting from prior industry groundwork in Tanzania.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain Technologies CEO explains Sipiem recovery action, next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest developments in the company’s legal recovery efforts and ongoing proceedings involving multiple defendants.

Gardin opened with a positive update regarding Mediapolis, explaining that after a lengthy bankruptcy process, the company has now reached a settlement. He confirmed that QBT is set to receive 10% of the proceeds, amounting to €132,000, with payment expected within the next 60 days.

The discussion then turned to the concept of court-supervised liquidation under Italian law. Gardin described this as a process similar to private bankruptcy, where a court oversees the disposal of a defendant’s assets, with proceeds distributed to creditors. He clarified that this specific case relates to one of several defendants involved, stating that there are “seven individuals and two insurance companies” connected to the broader legal actions.

Gardin emphasised that while one defendant has entered this process, the company continues to pursue asset recovery from others. He noted: “Given the position of exposure that the individual has with us, I mean we are in a very good position.”

The CEO also confirmed that real estate assets tied to the case will be auctioned under court supervision, and that QBT is actively filing requests to seize and sell assets across multiple cases.

      <title>PT Asset Management&apos;s Sean Dranfield on bonds: income &amp; yield curve insights</title>
      <description><![CDATA[PT Asset Management CEO Sean Dranfield talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the current bond market environment, highlighting why he believes conditions are increasingly attractive for investors despite geopolitical uncertainty and shifting rate expectations.

Dranfield explained that recent geopolitical events, including tensions involving Iran, have had a surprisingly muted impact on bond markets. He noted that both interest rates and credit spreads have seen only modest movement, reinforcing the difficulty of predicting market direction. He said this underscores the importance of focusing on fundamentals rather than forecasts.

A key theme of the discussion was the opportunity at the long end of the yield curve. Dranfield pointed out that steep yield curves and higher starting yields are creating compelling return potential. He explained that even a modest decline in rates could generate strong returns, stating that investors can benefit from both income and price appreciation over time.

At the same time, he highlighted opportunities in high-quality structured credit on the short end of the curve, including AAA-rated instruments. These investments, he said, can deliver “really attractive single digit total returns without reaching for either credit risk or interest rate risk,” offering stability regardless of rate movements.

Dranfield emphasised a balanced approach, combining longer-duration bonds with shorter, defensive positions to manage volatility while capturing upside potential. He added that portfolios are currently positioned with a strong defensive component to help buffer against uncertainty.

      <title>NanoViricides files for Rare Pediatric Disease Designation for Measles Drug</title>
      <description><![CDATA[NanoViricides CEO Dr Anil Diwan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has filed an application for Rare Pediatric Disease Drug Designation with the U.S. FDA’s Office of Orphan Products Development for NV-387 as a treatment for measles.

The RPDD application is expected to be combined with the company’s previously submitted Orphan Drug Designation application for NV-387, filed in February 2026, as part of a broader regulatory strategy to advance the drug candidate.

If granted, the designation would make NanoViricides eligible for a Priority Review Voucher upon approval of NV-387. PRVs are tradable assets that have recently commanded values of approximately $160 million, reflecting their ability to accelerate regulatory review timelines for other drugs.

Diwan emphasized the potential impact of NV-387, stating the therapy could become an important tool in addressing the resurgence of measles in the United States and globally. He added that treatment with NV-387 may support rapid recovery while helping to reduce complications, including the rare but serious post-measles “immune amnesia” effect. Currently, there are no approved antiviral treatments specifically for measles, highlighting a significant unmet medical need.

The Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher program was reauthorized in February 2026 under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, reinforcing incentives for companies developing therapies targeting serious pediatric conditions.

Measles cases have been rising in the United States, with more than 1,600 laboratory-confirmed cases reported across 33 states as of early April 2026, according to the CDC. While hospitalization rates have declined compared to 2025, the disease continues to pose risks, particularly among pediatric populations, which account for approximately 70% of cases.

      <itunes:summary>NanoViricides CEO Dr Anil Diwan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has filed an application for Rare Pediatric Disease Drug Designation with the U.S. FDA’s Office of Orphan Products Development for NV-387 as a treatment for measles.

The RPDD application is expected to be combined with the company’s previously submitted Orphan Drug Designation application for NV-387, filed in February 2026, as part of a broader regulatory strategy to advance the drug candidate.

If granted, the designation would make NanoViricides eligible for a Priority Review Voucher upon approval of NV-387. PRVs are tradable assets that have recently commanded values of approximately $160 million, reflecting their ability to accelerate regulatory review timelines for other drugs.

Diwan emphasized the potential impact of NV-387, stating the therapy could become an important tool in addressing the resurgence of measles in the United States and globally. He added that treatment with NV-387 may support rapid recovery while helping to reduce complications, including the rare but serious post-measles “immune amnesia” effect. Currently, there are no approved antiviral treatments specifically for measles, highlighting a significant unmet medical need.

The Rare Pediatric Disease Priority Review Voucher program was reauthorized in February 2026 under the Consolidated Appropriations Act, reinforcing incentives for companies developing therapies targeting serious pediatric conditions.

Measles cases have been rising in the United States, with more than 1,600 laboratory-confirmed cases reported across 33 states as of early April 2026, according to the CDC. While hospitalization rates have declined compared to 2025, the disease continues to pose risks, particularly among pediatric populations, which account for approximately 70% of cases.

      <title>Delta earnings and strong travel demand point to airline ETF opportunity</title>
      <description><![CDATA[U.S. Global Investors CEO Frank Holmes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the strength of global travel demand and what it means for airline investments and the Jets ETF.

Holmes highlighted that despite ongoing geopolitical tensions and rising fuel costs, the airline industry continues to perform strongly, pointing to record quarterly revenue reported by Delta Air Lines as a key example.

He described the sector’s performance as a positive signal for the broader economy, noting, “It’s like the canary in the coal mine, but in a good way… global travel demand is just strong.” Airlines have been able to pass on higher ticket prices while maintaining robust demand, supported by increased global mobility in the post-pandemic environment.

The discussion also explored evolving travel patterns, including strong north-south traffic between North America and Latin America, as well as rising activity across Asia. Holmes pointed to the growing influence of digital nomads and seasonal travelers, who are helping drive bookings beyond pre-pandemic levels.
He also highlighted a competitive advantage held by Delta, noting that its ownership of a refinery helps manage fuel costs and protect margins during periods of oil price volatility.

Beyond airlines, Holmes emphasized continued strength in adjacent sectors such as cruise travel and cargo shipping, suggesting that the “underlying belly of the global economy remains pretty strong.”
Looking ahead, he expressed optimism that geopolitical disruptions will prove temporary, while global travel demand continues its upward trajectory—supporting long-term opportunities in airline equities and ETFs such as the U.S. Global Jets ETF (JETS).

      <title>TNR Gold chair on Altius C$4.2M investment, Mariana royalty flow, Los Azules &amp; Shotgun projects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[TNR Gold Corp (TSX-V:TNR, FRA:TNW, OTC:TRRXF) executive chairman Kirill Klip talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest strategic milestone following a C$4.2 million investment from Altius Minerals, a major Canadian royalty company.

Klip described the investment as a strong endorsement of TNR Gold’s long-term strategy, noting that Altius has taken a non-control position of 23.5 million shares. He said: “It’s a strategic non-control position that signals confidence in our company,” highlighting the significance of backing from a well-established player in the mining royalty sector.

The announcement triggered a strong market response, with TNR Gold’s share price rising 30% following the news. Klip pointed to this as validation of the company’s corporate development strategy and growing recognition of its royalty portfolio.

He also outlined how the investment strengthens TNR Gold’s financial position, enabling it to advance its goal of becoming a leading green energy metals royalty and gold company. The company is now focused on expanding its royalty holdings and delivering shareholder returns through potential buybacks and future dividends.

Looking ahead, Klip noted that TNR Gold expects to begin receiving royalty payments in the near term, supported by production progress at its Mariana Lithium project, while continued developments at Los Azules and other assets provide additional upside.

      <title>Rome Resources CEO on strongest tin intercepts yet at Kalayi</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest drilling results from the Kalayi prospect in the Democratic Republic of Congo, highlighting what he described as the strongest intercepts achieved to date.

Barrett explained that the recent campaign, which covered over 3,000 metres of drilling, focused largely on Kalayi and delivered significantly wider intercepts than previously seen. He noted that “5 or 6 of the holes in this sequence have been much, much better… in terms of the widths of the intercepts,” pointing to encouraging signs for the project’s scale.

The company has been targeting deeper extensions of previously identified mineralisation, with early XRF readings suggesting strong continuity. While Barrett cautioned that these results remain semi-quantitative until lab assays are confirmed, he expressed confidence that the increased widths should provide a reliable indication of overall mineralisation.

Importantly, new intercepts in previously untested areas could expand the footprint of the deposit. Barrett said this “could increase the footprint quite a lot,” adding that mineralisation remains open at depth, presenting further exploration upside.

Looking ahead, Rome Resources is assessing next steps, including potential drilling strategies to access deeper zones more efficiently. The proximity of Kalayi to the Alphamin operation - just eight kilometres away - also provides a clear pathway toward potential development and commercialisation.

      <title>Fineqia International&apos;s Matteo Greco on Q1 crypto ETP trends, Q2 outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ) senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest trends shaping crypto markets in Q1 2026, highlighting how geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty are influencing investor behaviour.

Greco explained that Bitcoin continues to dominate institutional allocations, now accounting for over 81% of total crypto ETP assets under management. He noted, "BTC represents the equivalent of a safe haven in terms of crypto," as investors shift away from more volatile assets during periods of heightened uncertainty. This risk-off sentiment has been driven by geopolitical developments, including tensions involving Iran and the US, as well as concerns around inflation and potential stagflation.

The discussion also explored why Ethereum has seen negative ETP flows despite price gains, with Greco attributing this to profit-taking following a strong 2025 and broader caution in the altcoin market. Meanwhile, basket ETPs have underperformed significantly, reflecting their exposure to smaller, less liquid assets that are more vulnerable during downturns.

Looking ahead, Greco suggested that the next few weeks will be critical in determining the trajectory for Q2 2026, particularly as markets assess the impact of rising oil prices and evolving geopolitical risks. Despite recent market weakness, the continued growth in ETP listings signals long-term confidence in the sector.

      <itunes:summary>Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ) senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the latest trends shaping crypto markets in Q1 2026, highlighting how geopolitical tensions and macroeconomic uncertainty are influencing investor behaviour.

Greco explained that Bitcoin continues to dominate institutional allocations, now accounting for over 81% of total crypto ETP assets under management. He noted, &quot;BTC represents the equivalent of a safe haven in terms of crypto,&quot; as investors shift away from more volatile assets during periods of heightened uncertainty. This risk-off sentiment has been driven by geopolitical developments, including tensions involving Iran and the US, as well as concerns around inflation and potential stagflation.

The discussion also explored why Ethereum has seen negative ETP flows despite price gains, with Greco attributing this to profit-taking following a strong 2025 and broader caution in the altcoin market. Meanwhile, basket ETPs have underperformed significantly, reflecting their exposure to smaller, less liquid assets that are more vulnerable during downturns.

Looking ahead, Greco suggested that the next few weeks will be critical in determining the trajectory for Q2 2026, particularly as markets assess the impact of rising oil prices and evolving geopolitical risks. Despite recent market weakness, the continued growth in ETP listings signals long-term confidence in the sector.

      <title>King Ridge Capital CEO on benefits and strategy of KRC Cat Bond UCITS ETF</title>
      <description><![CDATA[King Ridge Capital Inc CEO Rick Pagnani talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the KRC Cat Bond UCITS ETF (CATB), explaining how catastrophe bonds work and why they can play a valuable role in diversified portfolios.

Pagnani outlined that cat bonds are insurance-linked securities that allow insurers to transfer risk to capital markets. These instruments are “fully collateralised and decoupled from the insurance company,” offering investors exposure that is largely uncorrelated to traditional equity and credit markets. He highlighted that this low correlation is a key differentiator, noting that cat bonds “serve to dampen volatility and increase return.”

The discussion also explored portfolio construction, with King Ridge Capital focusing on diversification across regions, perils, and issuers to build resilience against single catastrophic events. Pagnani emphasised the importance of risk management and liquidity, ensuring the portfolio can withstand shocks while maintaining steady income through coupon payments.

The interview touched on real-world events, including the impact of the LA wildfires, where the broader cat bond market showed resilience, recovering quickly and delivering an annual return of over 11%.

Pagnani also addressed investor allocation, suggesting cat bonds can represent around 5–10% of a portfolio, and explained why the ETF’s fee structure reflects the complexity of underwriting and modelling these instruments.

For investors seeking yield, diversification, and reduced correlation to traditional markets, he said CATB presents a compelling option.

      <title>EnWave signs R&amp;D license agreement with Rhizome Food and Farming</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EnWave Corporation CEO Brent Charleton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s newly signed Research and Development License Agreement (RDLA) with Rhizome Food and Farming, a North American food company led by renowned chef Dan Barber, a recipient of multiple Michelin stars.

Charleton explained that the agreement builds on prior engagement involving Row 7, which, through its connection to Barber, had entered into a rental arrangement for a small-scale 3.6kW Radiant Energy Vacuum (REV™) dehydration machine. That equipment supported the development of innovative, chef-driven food products. Row 7 is not affiliated with Rhizome, but the company has since purchased the 3.6kW REV™ system to continue advancing commercial product development.

Under the RDLA, Rhizome gains broad rights to use EnWave’s REV™ technology for research and development purposes. This includes collaboration with third-party food and agriculture companies on product and process innovation, as well as the production of limited volumes of commercial product for market trials.

With this agreement, Rhizome joins EnWave’s global network of R&D partners, which includes leading institutions such as Cornell University, the Danish Technological Institute, Queensland University of Technology (QUT) in Australia, and CNTA in Spain. These partners utilize REV™ equipment to collaborate with EnWave, applying vacuum-microwave dehydration technology to solve product-specific challenges and accelerate innovation.

Rhizome plans to use REV™ technology as a core component of its culinary and agricultural research ecosystem, exploring “moonshot” ideas in shelf stability, nutrient density, and flavor. The initiative will draw on its extensive network of chefs, scientists, and industry collaborators while helping to de-risk future commercialization opportunities.

      <title>Coiled Therapeutics doubles cancer drug&apos;s success rate with simple dosing change</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Coiled Therapeutics (AIM:COIL) executive chair Dr Sotirios Stergiopoulos and CEO Sridhar Vempati talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about promising clinical results for its lead oncology candidate AO-252.  The discussion highlighted a significant improvement in clinical outcomes, with the company reporting an increase in clinical benefit rate from 40% to 80% following a shift to twice-daily dosing.

Vempati explained that the enhanced efficacy appears linked to sustained drug exposure, noting that maintaining therapeutic levels for longer durations helps drive stronger results. He also emphasized AO-252’s multimodal mechanism, targeting mitosis, DNA damage repair, and immune activation. This approach not only attacks tumors directly but may also help the immune system recognize and respond to cancer more effectively.

Stergiopoulos highlighted the importance of these findings in heavily pre-treated patients, many of whom had exhausted available treatment options. He said: “The fact that we’re seeing effect is really astounding… and it gives us every confidence that we are on the right path.” The ability to generate responses in such late-stage cases suggests potential for even greater efficacy in earlier treatment lines.

The company is now advancing plans for combination trials and new formulations, with multiple data readouts expected throughout 2026. AO-252’s favorable safety profile and synergy with existing therapies could expand its use across a wide range of cancer indications.

      <title>ICG Silver and Gold expands footprint with new claims in Nevada’s Tuscarora district</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ICG Silver and Gold CEO Steven Sirbovan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has completed the staking and consolidation of eight newly available mineral claims, covering approximately 85 acres within the highly prospective Tuscarora District in Nevada.

The newly acquired claims were identified through ongoing technical evaluation, incorporating recently completed geophysical surveys, historical mapping, and legacy exploration data. This work has helped outline previously underexplored structural corridors and favorable lithological contacts believed to control mineralization across the district.

The company noted that securing this prospective ground—already supported by existing data—represents one of the most efficient ways to add value ahead of its planned Phase 1 drill program, scheduled to begin this summer.

The expanded land package enhances ICG’s exposure to a district known for favorable host lithologies, established mineral occurrences, and district-scale structural controls associated with both precious and base metal mineralization. The consolidation aligns with the company’s broader strategy of building dominant land positions in high-quality exploration jurisdictions with demonstrated upside potential.

ICG will refer to this newly defined area as the “Battle Mountain” target. Importantly, historical drilling on the ground provides early validation of the system. A total of 13 reverse circulation drill holes were previously completed, including six holes totaling approximately 1,280 metres with recorded assay data.

      <itunes:summary>ICG Silver and Gold CEO Steven Sirbovan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has completed the staking and consolidation of eight newly available mineral claims, covering approximately 85 acres within the highly prospective Tuscarora District in Nevada.

The newly acquired claims were identified through ongoing technical evaluation, incorporating recently completed geophysical surveys, historical mapping, and legacy exploration data. This work has helped outline previously underexplored structural corridors and favorable lithological contacts believed to control mineralization across the district.

The company noted that securing this prospective ground—already supported by existing data—represents one of the most efficient ways to add value ahead of its planned Phase 1 drill program, scheduled to begin this summer.

The expanded land package enhances ICG’s exposure to a district known for favorable host lithologies, established mineral occurrences, and district-scale structural controls associated with both precious and base metal mineralization. The consolidation aligns with the company’s broader strategy of building dominant land positions in high-quality exploration jurisdictions with demonstrated upside potential.

ICG will refer to this newly defined area as the “Battle Mountain” target. Importantly, historical drilling on the ground provides early validation of the system. A total of 13 reverse circulation drill holes were previously completed, including six holes totaling approximately 1,280 metres with recorded assay data.

      <title>MedPal AI scales rapidly with AI-Powered digital health platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[MedPal AI CEO Jason Drummond joined Steve Darling from Proactive to talk about the rapid growth of the company’s AI-powered healthcare platform and its vision to transform access to primary care.

Drummond explained how MedPal AI aggregates data from connected health devices such as Apple Watch, Fitbit, and Oura Ring into a single platform, allowing users to gain real-time health insights. He highlighted the scale of this opportunity, stating, “The estimated 1.3 billion people in the world have a connected health device… the level and the quality of the information they collect in real time is incredible.”

The platform combines AI-driven analysis with clinician oversight, enabling triage, diagnosis support, and prescription services. MedPal AI integrates a full end-to-end system, including robotic dispensing and rapid medication delivery, creating what Drummond describes as a “complete digital health platform” and a “health operating system.”

The company has scaled strongly since launch, reaching approximately 41,000 prescription orders in a single month and achieving a run rate exceeding £5 million in revenue within just 16 weeks. Drummond emphasized the importance of combining AI with human clinicians to deliver real-world outcomes, including medication and continuous health monitoring.

Looking ahead, MedPal AI is focused on expanding its footprint, with Germany recently launched and the US identified as a major future market opportunity.

MedPal is a UK-based, AI-driven, closed-loop digital health platform that aggregates data from over 100 wearables/apps to provide personalized wellness insights, clinical consultations, and rapid, robotically dispensed medication delivery. It operates via a smartphone app (iOS/Android) that acts as a personal health command center, aiming to bridge the gap between wellness tracking and proactive medical care.

      <title>Solvonis Therapeutics CEO says dual US patent win strengthens PTSD pipeline</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Solvonis Therapeutics PLC (LSE:SVNS) CEO Anthony Tennyson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company securing two US patents that significantly strengthen its PTSD treatment program. Tennyson explained that the patents cover two distinct chemical series, reinforcing the company’s intellectual property position and demonstrating that Solvonis is building “a novel chemistry platform and not just a single asset story.”

He highlighted that having multiple chemically distinct approaches is critical in CNS drug discovery, increasing the likelihood of identifying compounds with the right balance of efficacy, safety, and translational potential. This strategy enhances optionality and flexibility as the program advances.

The company has identified SVN-114 as its lead candidate and is now focused on progressing toward clinical development. Tennyson said Solvonis plans to pursue non-dilutive grant funding in both the UK and the US to support preclinical optimisation, with the goal of moving into IND-enabling studies and ultimately entering the clinic as efficiently as possible.

Discussing the broader market, Tennyson pointed out that post-traumatic stress disorder affects around 20 million people across key markets, yet there are currently no approved treatments. He noted, “we see the granting of these patents as a validation of our science,” adding that the company aims to bring hope to patients and families impacted by PTSD.

He also referenced growing interest from large pharmaceutical companies, signalling increasing commercial attention on the space.

      <title>Genflow CEO on promising SLAB trial data and next steps in dog trial</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF, FRA:WQ5) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about encouraging results from the SLAB (Sarcopenia and Longevity in Aged Beagles) trial, highlighting sustained efficacy and safety following treatment.

Leire explained that one of the most significant findings is the durability of the therapy’s effects. Even three months after stopping treatment, the benefits observed in the dogs have been maintained. He noted: "We stopped administration three months ago... and that's exactly what we see, both in terms of safety and in terms of efficacy." This persistence is a key milestone for gene therapy, as it could shift treatment from a repeated or chronic approach to a potential one-time intervention.

The durability of response also has broader implications for other indications Genflow is pursuing. Leire indicated that the results support expectations for similar long-lasting effects in future applications, including MASH.

While clinical endpoints are already showing promising outcomes, the company is awaiting additional data from blood analyses and biopsies to complement these findings. These results could further validate the therapy’s impact, including potential reductions in biological age. The existing data has already enabled early discussions with animal health companies regarding potential partnerships.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain CEO on AI Oracle&apos;s shortcut to market</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about progress in the company’s AI Oracle development and how it could significantly reduce deployment timelines for Bitcoin mining optimisation.

Gardin explained that the company has introduced a mining development kit (MDK), allowing its AI Oracle to operate via a server connected directly to a hash board. This approach removes the need to initially adapt code for constrained mining hardware, streamlining testing and development. He said: “What is important for the potential partner is that it works on their hash board,” highlighting the importance of early-stage validation for commercial adoption.

By shifting development to a server-based environment, QBT can integrate its Oracle without worrying about hardware limitations during the initial phase. Gardin noted this enables the company to “cut lead time to delivery,” with a target to complete key milestones by the end of the month.

The discussion also covered compatibility with widely used mining devices such as the Antminer S9 and Bitaxe Gamma. These platforms will be used for demonstrations to third parties, supported by new communication protocols linking them to the AI Oracle running on a server.

Looking ahead, QBT plans to showcase the AI Oracle at the Bitcoin 2026 conference in Las Vegas, aiming to present a live demonstration to ASIC manufacturers and industry participants.

      <itunes:summary>Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about progress in the company’s AI Oracle development and how it could significantly reduce deployment timelines for Bitcoin mining optimisation.

Gardin explained that the company has introduced a mining development kit (MDK), allowing its AI Oracle to operate via a server connected directly to a hash board. This approach removes the need to initially adapt code for constrained mining hardware, streamlining testing and development. He said: “What is important for the potential partner is that it works on their hash board,” highlighting the importance of early-stage validation for commercial adoption.

By shifting development to a server-based environment, QBT can integrate its Oracle without worrying about hardware limitations during the initial phase. Gardin noted this enables the company to “cut lead time to delivery,” with a target to complete key milestones by the end of the month.

The discussion also covered compatibility with widely used mining devices such as the Antminer S9 and Bitaxe Gamma. These platforms will be used for demonstrations to third parties, supported by new communication protocols linking them to the AI Oracle running on a server.

Looking ahead, QBT plans to showcase the AI Oracle at the Bitcoin 2026 conference in Las Vegas, aiming to present a live demonstration to ASIC manufacturers and industry participants.

      <title>Sunda Energy pivots to production with New Zealand acquisition</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Sunda Energy PLC (AIM:SNDA) CEO Andy Butler talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest strategic developments, including a transformational acquisition in New Zealand, progress across its international portfolio, and a strengthened funding position.

Butler outlined how the acquisition marks a major step forward, positioning Sunda Energy as a production-focused company with significant growth potential. He said the deal “takes us to a different level,” highlighting that it introduces immediate production of over 1,000 barrels alongside opportunities to expand through development and exploration.

The CEO also discussed the company’s broader portfolio strategy, describing it as a “three-legged stool” comprising assets in New Zealand, Timor-Leste, and the Philippines. This structure enhances both stability and diversification, while maintaining exposure to high-impact exploration opportunities.

In Timor-Leste, Sunda Energy has entered a collaboration with Finder Energy to support drilling at the Chuditch project, while in the Philippines the company continues to advance a high-impact exploration asset attracting third-party interest.

Butler also detailed a structured financing package designed to support the acquisition and future growth, including institutional backing and a retail offer for existing shareholders.

Looking ahead, he emphasised strong expected news flow, integration of new assets, and further drilling activity as key milestones for the year.

      <title>Quantum Helium secures operatorship approval for projects in Colorado</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Helium Limited CEO Howard Mclaughlin joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has received approval from the Bureau of Indian Affairs to assume operatorship of the Sagebrush Project in Colorado, marking a key milestone in its development strategy.

McLaughlin explained that Quantum holds prospective helium resources of more than 1 billion cubic feet across its Sagebrush and Coyote Wash projects, providing a strong foundation for future growth.

He noted that the operatorship approval follows an extensive and proactive engagement process with regulatory authorities and stakeholders. A recent company visit to Colorado, including meetings with the Ute Mountain Ute Tribe and relevant regulators, contributed positively to advancing and finalizing the approvals process.

With operatorship now secured, Quantum is moving into the next operational phase at Sagebrush, with mobilization for an extended production test at the Sagebrush-1 well expected to begin shortly.

The test, which is expected to run over several weeks, represents a key near-term milestone. Historically, the well encountered non-combustible gas with helium concentrations of approximately 2.76%, providing strong technical validation of the helium potential within the Leadville Formation. The upcoming program is designed to evaluate flow rates and confirm commercial deliverability.

Importantly, results from the extended production test are expected to support the conversion of existing helium resources into reserves, a critical step toward commercial development of the project.
The company has already completed extensive planning and procurement of long-lead equipment, positioning it to move efficiently into the testing phase following receipt of operatorship approval.

      <title>Bit Digital highlights 2025 results and strategic pivot to Ethereum and AI infrastructure</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bit Digital CEO Sam Tabar joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s 2025 financial results, its strategic shift away from Bitcoin mining, and its growing focus on Ethereum staking and AI infrastructure.

The company reported approximately $115 million in revenue for 2025, reflecting a deliberate transformation of its business model. Tabar explained that Bit Digital Inc has been reallocating capital away from Bitcoin mining into higher-return opportunities, particularly Ethereum staking and high-performance computing (HPC).

Ethereum has emerged as a core pillar of the company’s strategy, with holdings reaching approximately 155,000 ETH. The majority of these holdings are staked to generate yield, contributing to a significant increase in staking revenue. Tabar noted that “staking revenue actually increased by 300% this year,” highlighting the rapid expansion of this segment and its growing importance to overall performance.
The company views Ethereum as programmable financial infrastructure, enabling both yield generation and deeper participation in network economics.

Bit Digital is also expanding its exposure to AI infrastructure through its majority stake in WhiteFiber, while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital allocation. The company is actively evaluating acquisition opportunities aimed at building cash-generating businesses and establishing a long-term growth flywheel.

Tabar emphasized that the company’s exit from Bitcoin mining is permanent, citing declining economics and capital inefficiencies across the sector as key drivers behind the decision.

      <title>BlockchaAIn Digital Infrastructure shifts to AI data centers following NYSE American listing</title>
      <description><![CDATA[BlockchaAIn Digital Infrastructure, COO Eyal Rozen joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s strategic shift toward AI-focused data centers and its recent listing on the NYSE American.

Rozen explained that the company, originally founded in 2022 with a focus on Bitcoin mining, has rapidly evolved to meet surging demand for AI infrastructure. Recognizing early that AI workloads would become a dominant driver of data center demand, the company transitioned away from a pure mining model toward hosting AI colocation customers.

Today, approximately 80–90% of BlockchaAIn’s resources are dedicated to AI infrastructure, positioning the company to capitalize on one of the fastest-growing segments in the digital economy.

Rozen emphasized the critical role of energy availability in this shift, noting that “power is king” as companies compete to secure capacity for AI operations. In response, BlockchaAIn is actively acquiring and repurposing data centers across the United States, including a recent 20-megawatt project for a major undisclosed client. This strategy includes converting legacy Bitcoin mining facilities into AI-ready infrastructure.

The company is currently expanding its footprint across key U.S. regions, including the southern states and Minnesota, while simultaneously evaluating multiple acquisition opportunities. Rozen added that the U.S. remains BlockchaAIn’s primary market due to its scale and strong demand dynamics.

Looking ahead, the company plans to secure additional land and power resources, align customer demand with operational readiness, and raise further capital to support continued growth following its public listing.

      <itunes:summary>BlockchaAIn Digital Infrastructure, COO Eyal Rozen joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s strategic shift toward AI-focused data centers and its recent listing on the NYSE American.

Rozen explained that the company, originally founded in 2022 with a focus on Bitcoin mining, has rapidly evolved to meet surging demand for AI infrastructure. Recognizing early that AI workloads would become a dominant driver of data center demand, the company transitioned away from a pure mining model toward hosting AI colocation customers.

Today, approximately 80–90% of BlockchaAIn’s resources are dedicated to AI infrastructure, positioning the company to capitalize on one of the fastest-growing segments in the digital economy.

Rozen emphasized the critical role of energy availability in this shift, noting that “power is king” as companies compete to secure capacity for AI operations. In response, BlockchaAIn is actively acquiring and repurposing data centers across the United States, including a recent 20-megawatt project for a major undisclosed client. This strategy includes converting legacy Bitcoin mining facilities into AI-ready infrastructure.

The company is currently expanding its footprint across key U.S. regions, including the southern states and Minnesota, while simultaneously evaluating multiple acquisition opportunities. Rozen added that the U.S. remains BlockchaAIn’s primary market due to its scale and strong demand dynamics.

Looking ahead, the company plans to secure additional land and power resources, align customer demand with operational readiness, and raise further capital to support continued growth following its public listing.

      <title>Immunic COO highlights the importance of science-led innovation to mark World Health Day</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX, FRA:10VA) chief operating officer Jason Tardio talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the importance of science-led innovation in tackling neurological diseases, particularly multiple sclerosis, on World Health Day 2026.

Tardio highlighted that the biotech industry is fundamentally grounded in scientific research and data, noting that “everything we do is rooted in science.” He explained that Immunic is focused on developing innovative therapies designed to improve patient outcomes and address significant unmet medical needs.

The discussion centred on multiple sclerosis (MS), a complex neurological disease that continues to present challenges despite decades of progress. Tardio pointed out that while advancements have been made, “the disease is not solved for,” with many patients still experiencing disability progression and requiring safer, more tolerable treatments.

He emphasised the urgent need for innovation, particularly in progressive forms of MS where treatment options remain extremely limited. Immunic’s lead asset, vidofludimus calcium, is being developed as a novel approach aimed at addressing the full spectrum of the disease.

Tardio also reinforced the broader mission of the healthcare and biotech sectors, stating that the ultimate goal is to help individuals “live a better quality of life” and “a healthier life longer.”

      <title>One Bullion highlights rapid growth and expanding African Gold portfolio</title>
      <description><![CDATA[One Bullion CEO Adam Berk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s rapid growth following its recent public listing and its expanding gold exploration footprint across Africa.

Berk explained that One Bullion Ltd has quickly established a strong presence, controlling more than 5,000 square kilometres across three key projects: Vumba, Maitengwe, and Kraaipan. He emphasized the strength of the company’s operating region, describing it as one of Africa’s most attractive mining jurisdictions—politically stable, transparent, and largely underexplored—offering significant upside potential for discovery.

Vumba stands out as the company’s flagship asset, already supported by legacy drilling and ongoing artisanal mining activity. One Bullion plans to initiate geophysical surveys within the next 60 days, followed by a targeted drill program exceeding $1 million later this year.

Maitengwe is expected to follow with exploration activity in the third quarter, while Kraaipan represents a longer-term “blue sky” opportunity. The project hosts 48 identified targets, with exploration programs planned through 2027.

Berk also highlighted strong corporate momentum, including the completion of a reverse takeover (RTO), a $5 million capital raise, and growing institutional participation. He added that 2026 is shaping up to be a transformative year as the company advances multiple projects in parallel.

      <title>Medicus Pharma submits optimized Phase 2 study design for Teverelix</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma Chief Medical Officer Dr Faisal Mehmud joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has submitted an optimized Phase 2 clinical study design to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for Teverelix. The therapy is being developed to help prevent recurrent acute urinary retention (AUR) in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) under the company’s existing open Investigational New Drug application.

Mehmud explained that the updated study design has been refined under the leadership of Steven A. Kaplan, MD, FACS, a globally recognized expert in urology and men’s health, who will serve as Principal Investigator.

He noted that there are currently no approved pharmacological therapies specifically indicated to prevent the recurrence of AUR, which is most caused by an enlarged prostate. Medicus Pharma’s proof-of-concept approach for Teverelix aims to address this unmet need, targeting a market estimated at approximately $2 billion.

The revised Phase 2 study design, known as ANT-2111-02, includes a targeted sample size of approximately 126 patients across sites in the United States and Europe. The study is designed to detect a clear pharmacodynamic signal, specifically total prostate volume reduction, within an expected timeframe of about 12 weeks.

The optimized design reflects a data-driven approach, reducing the study size by roughly threefold compared to the original plan. This adjustment is expected to significantly lower development costs while improving efficiency and execution speed. The streamlined approach also positions the company for earlier strategic engagement and potential partnering discussions.

The optimized design reflects a data-driven approach, reducing the study size by roughly threefold compared to the original plan. This adjustment is expected to significantly lower development costs while improving efficiency and execution speed. The streamlined approach also positions the company for earlier strategic engagement and potential partnering discussions.

      <itunes:subtitle>Medicus Pharma Chief Medical Officer Dr Faisal Mehmud joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has submitted an optimized Phase 2 clinical study design to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for Teverelix. The therapy is being developed to help prevent recurrent acute urinary retention (AUR) in men with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) under the company’s existing open Investigational New Drug application.

Mehmud explained that the updated study design has been refined under the leadership of Steven A. Kaplan, MD, FACS, a globally recognized expert in urology and men’s health, who will serve as Principal Investigator.

He noted that there are currently no approved pharmacological therapies specifically indicated to prevent the recurrence of AUR, which is most caused by an enlarged prostate. Medicus Pharma’s proof-of-concept approach for Teverelix aims to address this unmet need, targeting a market estimated at approximately $2 billion.

      <title>American Rare Earths advances Halleck Creek pilot plant program</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Rare Earths CEO Mark Wall joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce rapid progress on the company’s pilot plant program aimed at producing pre-production rare earth concentrate from Halleck Creek ore. As part of this advancement, the company has engaged Jaye T. Pickarts, P.E. to lead the pilot plant process, bringing extensive U.S.-based rare earth and project development expertise to this critical stage.

Wall explained that Pickarts is a metallurgical engineer and Registered Professional Engineer with more than four decades of experience in mine development, mineral processing, and environmental compliance. His background includes leadership roles in rare earth demonstration plants and Wyoming-based permitting and operations.

In previous positions, including a senior role at engineering firm Knight Piésold, Pickarts oversaw the design, construction, and commissioning of rare earth pilot and demonstration facilities. He has also contributed to multiple technical studies, advancing projects from early scoping through to feasibility. His combined expertise in flowsheet development and plant execution will be instrumental in integrating and de-risking the Halleck Creek pilot circuit.

To support the program, American Rare Earths has ordered three key pieces of front-end processing equipment. The company has already received two Induced Roll Magnetic Separators (IRMS) manufactured by Mineral Technologies, headquartered in Starke, Florida. In addition, it has ordered a “GradePro” Reflux Classifier from FLSmidth in Salt Lake City, Utah, which is currently being fabricated on an expedited schedule. The remainder of the circuit will utilize standard, well-established processing equipment, allowing the team to focus on efficiently integrating and optimizing these critical components.

The company has also announced it has brought on t Tetra Tech, a U.S. based major consulting and engineering services company, to complete an Oxides to Metals study for the Company’s heavy rare earths stream. The study will evaluate options to convert separated heavy rare earth oxides from the American Rare Earths Halleck Creek Project in Wyoming all the way to metal, a critical midstream step immediately preceding the manufacture of permanent magnets relied upon by defense and advanced technology sectors.

      <title>Valereum CEO on VGOLD &amp; tokenised gold growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ, OTCQB:VLRMF) CEO Gary Cottle talked with Proactive about the launch of VGOLD, a new product aiming to differentiate itself in the growing tokenised gold market by offering yield alongside digital gold exposure.

Cottle explained that VGOLD stands out as “probably the only gold token that will pay a yield or a coupon,” adding that investors who stake tokens for longer than a year could see returns between 10% and 15%. This positions VGOLD as both a store of value and an income-generating digital asset.

The discussion also covered liquidity and flexibility. Cottle noted that VGOLD and its associated VGOLD-CORE tokens are designed to be “very liquid,” with the ability to convert into cash, tether gold, and other assets. This flexibility allows Valereum to actively manage and deploy capital while maintaining exposure to gold-linked instruments.

Part of the strategy includes transitioning existing bond assets into VGOLD-CORE, described as a liquidity pool, subject to verification processes for underlying assets. The company expects this to enhance both returns and usability.

Cottle also highlighted the importance of Valereum’s collaboration with Quorium Global Photonics (QGP),  describing the partnership as fundamental to building the VGOLD ecosystem. The alignment includes shared technology, revenue opportunities, and complementary asset pipelines.

Looking ahead, a potential US listing remains a key objective, though dependent on achieving stable revenues. With multiple deals in progress across gold and real estate tokenisation, VGOLD is seen as a primary driver toward near-term revenue generation.

      <title>Abingdon Health chair on H1 performance, new contracts, OTC admission, and the path ahead</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Abingdon Health PLC (AIM:ABDX) executive chairman Dr Chris Hand talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong first-half performance, recent contract wins and growth outlook in the diagnostics market.

Hand explained that Abingdon Health operates as a contract development and manufacturing organisation specialising in lateral flow and rapid diagnostic testing, now offering a full-service, end-to-end solution from product development through to regulatory approval and manufacturing. This expanded “one-stop shop” model is helping differentiate the company in a competitive sector.

The company reported a 45% increase in revenue in the first half, with expectations for an even stronger second half. 

Hand also highlighted two major contract wins, including a $2.5 million international project and a £4.8 million agreement to develop multiplex lateral flow tests. These tests allow multiple biomarkers to be analysed in a single device, moving beyond traditional yes/no diagnostics. As Hand noted, “these tests [are] basically an onsite version of a lab test,” reflecting growing demand from biotech and pharmaceutical customers.

The company is also expanding its US presence, with its Madison, Wisconsin, facility supporting increased manufacturing capacity and trading of its shares on the OTCQB to improve investor access and liquidity.

Looking ahead, continued contract momentum and revenue growth are expected to drive performance through the second half of the year.

      <title>RC Fornax FD on growth outlook &amp; £5.1M sales visibility</title>
      <description><![CDATA[RC Fornax PLC (AIM:RCFX) finance director Rob Shepherd talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest trading update, highlighting strong sales momentum, growing order visibility, and a positive outlook driven by both internal improvements and favourable market conditions.

Shepherd explained that the company has already surpassed its previous full-year revenue within just seven months, supported by over £5.1 million in sales visibility. This performance reflects improving operational execution and a more structured commercial approach following internal changes. He noted that “we're already in excess of what we did for the previous 12 months,” underlining the pace of growth.

A key theme was the importance of recurring revenue. While contracts are typically shorter-term, RC Fornax has seen sustained relationships with clients over multiple years, demonstrating consistent value delivery. Shepherd emphasised that repeat business shows “customers like what we do,” reinforcing confidence in the company’s model.

The discussion also touched on external drivers, particularly increased global defence spending amid geopolitical tensions. Within a UK defence budget of around £64–65 billion, RC Fornax estimates an addressable opportunity of approximately £1.5 billion. Despite currently holding a small share of that market, Shepherd highlighted significant growth potential.

Operational improvements, including new leadership and sales processes, are also contributing to stronger commercial performance and new client wins.

      <itunes:summary>RC Fornax PLC (AIM:RCFX) finance director Rob Shepherd talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest trading update, highlighting strong sales momentum, growing order visibility, and a positive outlook driven by both internal improvements and favourable market conditions.

Shepherd explained that the company has already surpassed its previous full-year revenue within just seven months, supported by over £5.1 million in sales visibility. This performance reflects improving operational execution and a more structured commercial approach following internal changes. He noted that “we&apos;re already in excess of what we did for the previous 12 months,” underlining the pace of growth.

A key theme was the importance of recurring revenue. While contracts are typically shorter-term, RC Fornax has seen sustained relationships with clients over multiple years, demonstrating consistent value delivery. Shepherd emphasised that repeat business shows “customers like what we do,” reinforcing confidence in the company’s model.

The discussion also touched on external drivers, particularly increased global defence spending amid geopolitical tensions. Within a UK defence budget of around £64–65 billion, RC Fornax estimates an addressable opportunity of approximately £1.5 billion. Despite currently holding a small share of that market, Shepherd highlighted significant growth potential.

Operational improvements, including new leadership and sales processes, are also contributing to stronger commercial performance and new client wins.

      <title>Ariana Resources MD on 2025 results &amp; growth outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ariana Resources PLC (AIM:AAU, ASX:AA2, FRA:4A6) managing director Kerim Sener talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 2025 results, funding position, and progress across its key gold projects, including Dokwe and Tavşan.

Sener outlined a “very pleasing end to the year,” highlighting a stronger cash position following an investment from Xinhai, leaving the company with approximately £5.4 million in cash. He explained that Ariana is now “adequately provided for through the duration of the coming year and the feasibility study on Dokwe,” positioning the company to advance one of its most important growth assets.

The discussion also addressed the reported shift from profit to loss, which Sener clarified was “a paper treatment only,” driven by a non-cash accounting adjustment related to the valuation of its investment in Zenit.

Operationally, the Dokwe project continues to deliver encouraging exploration results. Sener pointed to strong drilling intercepts, including “4m at about 17g per ton of gold,” which demonstrate newly identified extensions of mineralisation and support the potential for a future resource upgrade. Further drilling and metallurgical work are planned in the coming months.

Meanwhile, the Tavşan mine has entered production and is expected to begin contributing dividend flow during the year, supporting Ariana Resources PLC’s broader growth strategy.

Sener also emphasised that the company is “very well funded through the course of this year,” with additional financial and technical backing from Xinhai helping to advance feasibility work.

      <title>Purepoint Uranium updates on Dorado discovery and exploration strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Purepoint Uranium Group CEO Chris Frostad joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s latest uranium exploration progress at its Dorado project in northern Saskatchewan, as well as the broader process of making and advancing a discovery.

Frostad explained that Purepoint Uranium Group operates in one of the world’s most prolific uranium regions, collaborating with major partners including Cameco, Orano, and ISOEnergy. The discussion focused on the company’s recent discovery at the Dorado project, particularly within the Nova zone, where initial drilling intersected high-grade uranium mineralization.

Highlighting that discovery is only the first step, Frostad noted: “The real work happens after the fact,” emphasizing the importance of follow-up drilling to confirm whether mineralization is repeatable and to better understand the structure and controls of the deposit. The company is now conducting additional drilling to expand on the initial findings and determine the direction and continuity of the uranium system.

Frostad also outlined how modern exploration relies heavily on geophysics and geological modelling. He explained that uranium itself is not directly detectable through geophysical surveys; instead, the company analyzes surrounding rock types, structures, and alteration patterns to guide drilling decisions and refine its exploration model.

With ongoing work at Dorado, Purepoint Uranium Group aims to define the scale and orientation of the mineralized system and determine the next steps for continued exploration.

      <title>American Resources partners with Mitsubishi Materials to scale rare earth refining</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp CFO Kirk Taylor joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a strategic collaboration with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation, a global leader in advanced materials and resource circulation. The partnership includes a strategic investment in ReElement Technologies, reinforcing confidence in its refining-first platform and its role in strengthening critical mineral supply chains.

Taylor explained that the collaboration is designed to accelerate the development of scalable and economically viable refining solutions across the United States and allied nations. In the U.S., the partnership will focus on supporting ReElement’s refining operations through feedstock sourcing, tolling arrangements, and offtake opportunities—key components in expanding domestic refining capacity.

In Japan, the companies will jointly explore opportunities to commercialize rare earth and critical mineral recycling solutions. This effort will combine MMC’s well-established recycling infrastructure with ReElement’s proprietary chromatographic refining platform, creating a powerful synergy aimed at improving efficiency and sustainability in the sector.

ReElement’s refining-first approach is built for flexibility, allowing it to process both recycled and primary feedstocks into high-purity materials. This capability positions the company as a scalable solution to the global midstream refining gap, a critical bottleneck in the supply chain for rare earth elements and other essential minerals.

Unlike conventional solvent-based refining methods—which are often difficult to implement outside of China due to environmental, capital, and operational challenges—ReElement’s platform offers a modular, cost-effective, and environmentally responsible alternative.

He also անդրscored the importance of samarium, a critical element used in defence-related magnet applications, emphasizing the company’s role in supporting secure and resilient supply chains for the US and allied nations.

Taylor noted that American Resources Corp has built a flexible mineral refinement platform capable of adapting to evolving customer needs and addressing new challenges across the sector.

      <itunes:summary>American Resources Corp CFO Kirk Taylor joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a strategic collaboration with Mitsubishi Materials Corporation, a global leader in advanced materials and resource circulation. The partnership includes a strategic investment in ReElement Technologies, reinforcing confidence in its refining-first platform and its role in strengthening critical mineral supply chains.

Taylor explained that the collaboration is designed to accelerate the development of scalable and economically viable refining solutions across the United States and allied nations. In the U.S., the partnership will focus on supporting ReElement’s refining operations through feedstock sourcing, tolling arrangements, and offtake opportunities—key components in expanding domestic refining capacity.

In Japan, the companies will jointly explore opportunities to commercialize rare earth and critical mineral recycling solutions. This effort will combine MMC’s well-established recycling infrastructure with ReElement’s proprietary chromatographic refining platform, creating a powerful synergy aimed at improving efficiency and sustainability in the sector.

ReElement’s refining-first approach is built for flexibility, allowing it to process both recycled and primary feedstocks into high-purity materials. This capability positions the company as a scalable solution to the global midstream refining gap, a critical bottleneck in the supply chain for rare earth elements and other essential minerals.

Unlike conventional solvent-based refining methods—which are often difficult to implement outside of China due to environmental, capital, and operational challenges—ReElement’s platform offers a modular, cost-effective, and environmentally responsible alternative.

He also անդրscored the importance of samarium, a critical element used in defence-related magnet applications, emphasizing the company’s role in supporting secure and resilient supply chains for the US and allied nations.

Taylor noted that American Resources Corp has built a flexible mineral refinement platform capable of adapting to evolving customer needs and addressing new challenges across the sector.

      <title>Medicus Pharma gains independent validation for SkinJect Phase 2 data</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive Medicus Pharma CEO Dr. Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to report independent clinical validation of the company’s Phase 2 SkinJect® dataset by Dr. Babar Rao, principal investigator of the SKNJCT-003 study and a globally recognized leader in dermatology and skin cancer research.

According to Dr. Rao’s independent assessment, the study results are clinically meaningful and “decision-grade,” supporting Medicus Pharma’s continued development of the SkinJect platform and future regulatory engagement. His validation adds significant credibility to the dataset as the company advances toward later-stage trials.

The SKNJCT-003 trial is a randomized, double-blind, three-arm Phase 2 study designed to evaluate microneedle-mediated delivery of doxorubicin in patients with nodular basal cell carcinoma. The study compares the therapeutic approach against a biologically active device-only control, providing a rigorous framework to isolate the incremental benefit of the drug component while also assessing both visual (clinical) and histological clearance endpoints.

Dr. Rao emphasized that the trial design enables a clear understanding of treatment effectiveness, combining real-world clinical observations with detailed pathological analysis. He noted that the findings carry important implications for patient care, particularly in reducing reliance on invasive procedures.

One of the most compelling outcomes highlighted was that approximately three out of four treated lesions achieved visual tumor clearance. This suggests that a significant number of patients could potentially avoid immediate surgical intervention, offering a less invasive treatment alternative for certain forms of skin cancer.

Dr. Rao, a dermatologist, dermatopathologist, Mohs surgeon, and clinical investigator, brings extensive expertise in skin oncology. He serves as Professor of Dermatology and Pathology and Director of Clinical Research at Rutgers Robert Wood Johnson Medical School, with additional academic roles at Weill Cornell Medical College and California Health Sciences University.

The independent validation strengthens Medicus Pharma’s position as it continues to develop SkinJect as a novel, minimally invasive treatment option, with the potential to reshape how certain skin cancers are managed in clinical practice

      <title>ReconAfrica begins Kavango West testing, expands hydrocarbon potential</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Reconnaissance Energy Africa or ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of production testing operations at the Kavango West 1X discovery well, marking a key step forward in the company’s exploration and development efforts.

Reinsborough confirmed that testing operations have begun on schedule following receipt of all necessary regulatory permits. Work crews are now on site preparing the well, with critical equipment—including a production liner sourced from North America—already delivered. The company has also secured contracts with major oilfield service providers Halliburton and Schlumberger Oilfield Services, alongside engaging local suppliers to support operations.

Ongoing analysis has further strengthened the project’s outlook. Incorporating additional rock data and updated log analysis, ReconAfrica has refined its petrophysical interpretation, now identifying 74 metres (246 feet) of net hydrocarbon pay in the Huttenberg formation—an increase from the previously reported 64 metres (210 feet). This improvement highlights the growing potential of the discovery as technical understanding of the reservoir advances.

As operator, the company plans to conduct production testing across six optimized zones, including three within the Huttenberg formation and three in the deeper Elandshoek formation. In total, approximately 345 metres (1,132 feet) of prospective interval will be isolated and perforated for testing, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the well’s production capabilities.

Beyond Namibia, Reinsborough also provided an update on the company’s activities in Gabon, specifically within the Ngulu block. ReconAfrica is currently reprocessing 3D seismic data across key areas, including the Loba oil discovery. Upon completion, the company intends to select an appraisal drilling location and commission a third-party resource report, expected by the end of 2026.

The Ngulu block spans approximately 1,214 square kilometres in shallow offshore waters of central Gabon and is strategically positioned near several producing oil fields. The asset includes the Loba discovery and more than 28 identified prospects across both pre-salt and post-salt plays, underscoring its significant exploration upside.

Overall, the initiation of production testing at Kavango West, combined with ongoing evaluation work in Gabon, positions ReconAfrica to further define its resource base and advance toward potential development opportunities across its portfolio.

      <itunes:subtitle>Reconnaissance Energy Africa or ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of production testing operations at the Kavango West 1X discovery well, marking a key step forward in the company’s exploration and development efforts.

Reinsborough confirmed that testing operations have begun on schedule following receipt of all necessary regulatory permits. Work crews are now on site preparing the well, with critical equipment—including a production liner sourced from North America—already delivered. The company has also secured contracts with major oilfield service providers Halliburton and Schlumberger Oilfield Services, alongside engaging local suppliers to support operations.

Ongoing analysis has further strengthened the project’s outlook. Incorporating additional rock data and updated log analysis, ReconAfrica has refined its petrophysical interpretation, now identifying 74 metres (246 feet) of net hydrocarbon pay in the Huttenberg formation—an increase from the previously reported 64 metres (210 feet). This improvement highlights the growing potential of the discovery as technical understanding of the reservoir advances.

As operator, the company plans to conduct production testing across six optimized zones, including three within the Huttenberg formation and three in the deeper Elandshoek formation. In total, approximately 345 metres (1,132 feet) of prospective interval will be isolated and perforated for testing, providing a comprehensive evaluation of the well’s production capabilities.

Beyond Namibia, Reinsborough also provided an update on the company’s activities in Gabon, specifically within the Ngulu block. ReconAfrica is currently reprocessing 3D seismic data across key areas, including the Loba oil discovery. Upon completion, the company intends to select an appraisal drilling location and commission a third-party resource report, expected by the end of 2026.

The Ngulu block spans approximately 1,214 square kilometres in shallow offshore waters of central Gabon and is strategically positioned near several producing oil fields. The asset includes the Loba discovery and more than 28 identified prospects across both pre-salt and post-salt plays, underscoring its significant exploration upside.

Overall, the initiation of production testing at Kavango West, combined with ongoing evaluation work in Gabon, positions ReconAfrica to further define its resource base and advance toward potential development opportunities across its portfolio.

      <title>First Phosphate completes 40,000m drill program, expands mineralization at Bégin-Lamarche</title>
      <description><![CDATA[First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the successful completion of the company’s infill drill program at its Bégin-Lamarche property in Saguenay–Lac-St-Jean, Quebec.

Passalacqua said the drilling campaign, which began in October 2025, confirmed extensive and continuous phosphate mineralization across the existing resource horizon. The program also led to the discovery of two new phosphate intersections in both the Northern and Southern Zones, located on the eastern extension of the known mineralized area—highlighting the project’s potential for further expansion.

In response to these encouraging results, the company expanded its original 30,000-metre drill program by an additional 10,000 metres. The expanded drilling was designed to better define the newly identified zones and to test for deeper mineralization across multiple areas within both the Northern and Southern Zones.
In total, approximately 40,000 metres of drilling have now been completed. First Phosphate is currently processing the full dataset, with results expected to support an updated geological model for the Bégin-Lamarche property in the coming weeks. This updated model is anticipated to enhance the company’s understanding of the scale, continuity, and grade distribution of the deposit.

In addition to the operational update, the company announced a key leadership transition. Gilles Laverdiere will retire as Chief Geologist after an impressive 48-year career in the mining industry. He will be succeeded by Steeve Lavoie, P.Geo., who brings more than 20 years of mineral exploration experience, including recent work with Agnico Eagle Mines. Lavoie joined First Phosphate in November 2025 and is expected to play a key role in advancing the company’s exploration strategy moving forward.

The completion of this expanded drill program and the strengthening of the technical team position First Phosphate to advance Bégin-Lamarche as a significant phosphate asset within Quebec’s growing critical minerals sector.

      <title>Rainbow Rare Earths CEO says £11.1M provides sufficient runway to advance projects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd (LSE:RBW, OTC:RBWRF, FRA:RR1) CEO George Bennett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s £11.1 million fundraising and the strategic significance of bringing Traxys on board as a partner linked to the US government’s Project Vault initiative.

Bennett explained how this development positions Rainbow as “a major player in the rare earths market” outside China, highlighting the company’s focus on extracting rare earth elements from phosphogypsum waste residues rather than traditional mining. This approach underpins two key assets: the Phalaborwa Project in South Africa and the Uberaba Project in Brazil.

He outlined that the newly secured funding provides a strong financial runway, enabling Rainbow to complete a definitive feasibility study at Phalaborwa by the end of 2026, alongside a pre-feasibility study at Uberaba in partnership with Mosaic. These milestones are expected to be critical value drivers for shareholders.

Bennett also emphasised the company’s cost advantage, noting that removing mining and processing steps could make Rainbow one of the lowest-cost producers of separated rare earth oxides. He added that both projects are targeting relatively near-term production, with Phalaborwa expected online in 2029 and Uberaba in 2030.

The interview also touches on the strategic opportunity presented by US efforts to build critical mineral stockpiles, positioning Rainbow within a rapidly evolving global supply chain landscape.

      <itunes:summary>Digitalbox PLC (AIM:DBOX, FRA:RLXB) CEO James Carter talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 2025 results, highlighting a year of growth despite a mixed media market backdrop.

Carter explained that Digitalbox expanded its portfolio to ten operating assets through its “verticals program,” launching new products in targeted editorial spaces. The company delivered a 7% increase in revenue, outperforming broader market trends, while adjusted EBITDA rose by 10%. He noted that social media remains a key driver, with Digitalbox growing its total following by 31% to approximately 27 million users.

A major shift in strategy has been the company’s evolving monetisation approach. Carter said: “We grew our platform monetisation by 100% in the past year,” reflecting a stronger focus on platform-based audiences and diversified revenue streams. Digitalbox is also moving beyond pure programmatic advertising, with growing contributions from direct-to-consumer offerings such as paid subscriptions.

Looking ahead, the company aims to sustain its momentum through new product launches and potential acquisitions. Carter outlined the ambition “to build ourselves into an entertainment powerhouse,” with upcoming launches including Film Shrine, building on the success of existing brands like Reality Shrine.

      <title>Poolbeg Pharma CEO says POLB-001 patent win strengthens Big Pharma partnership potential</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Poolbeg Pharma PLC (AIM:POLB, OTC:POLBF, FRA:POLBF) CEO Jeremy Skillington talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company securing its first national patent for POLB-001 targeting cancer immunotherapy-induced cytokine release syndrome (CRS).

Skillington explained that the patent, granted by IP Australia, covers the use of p38 MAPK inhibitors, including POLB-001, to prevent and treat CRS. He highlighted that the protection is broad and supported by proprietary data generated by the company, following a thorough examination process. The patent marks an important milestone as Poolbeg continues expanding into oncology, building on earlier filings made in the UK and through international patent cooperation frameworks.

He noted the timing aligns well with upcoming clinical developments, with interim data from its clinical trial expected in the summer. Skillington said: “The timing of this is absolutely perfect,” emphasising how the patent strengthens the company’s position as it advances the programme.

The discussion also outlined why intellectual property is critical for large pharmaceutical partners. Skillington explained that strong patent protection provides exclusivity and reduces uncertainty, which is essential given the significant investment required to bring drugs to market. He added that Poolbeg aims to leverage this growing IP portfolio to support future partnering opportunities.

Looking ahead, the company plans to expand patent coverage into additional jurisdictions while progressing its clinical programme and delivering near-term milestones.

      <title>Maxus Mining ramps up BC antimony exploration with 37,000-acre land package</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Maxus Mining CEO Scott Walters joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s rapid growth and strategic focus on critical minerals exploration in British Columbia, with a particular emphasis on antimony.

Formed in late 2024 with a clear mandate to target critical minerals, Maxus Mining has quickly assembled a substantial land package of approximately 37,000 acres. A significant portion of this portfolio is dedicated to antimony, now the company’s primary exploration focus. Walters emphasized, “the main focus of the company right now… is exploring our antimony properties.”

The company’s flagship Alps Alturas property is a standout due to its historical production and high-grade potential. Past mining at the site delivered exceptionally strong grades, with some samples reaching as high as 69.5% antimony. Securing 100% ownership of the asset positions Alps Alturas as the cornerstone of the company’s exploration strategy moving forward.

Looking ahead to 2026, Maxus Mining is preparing for an active field season, including airborne VTEM surveys and a planned drill program exceeding 2,000 metres. With permits in hand and approximately $4 million allocated to exploration, the company is focused on defining an economic antimony resource.

Walters also highlighted the growing importance of antimony as a critical mineral, noting that supply constraints and rising demand in defense and industrial applications are driving market interest. With strong infrastructure access and a strategic North American position, Maxus Mining aims to become a reliable upstream supplier of high-grade antimony, supporting both domestic and allied critical mineral needs.

      <title>Accesso CEO on boosting AI reach wtih Dexibit &amp; 2025 resaults</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Accesso Technology Group PLC (LSE:ACSO, OTC:LOQPF, FRA:LQG) chief executive Steve Brown talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s AI strategy, the acquisition of Dexibit, and how these initiatives could support future growth. Brown highlighted Accesso’s strong positioning in artificial intelligence gives it a competitive advantage.

He explained that Dexibit represents a “step change” in how Accesso can deliver value to clients by integrating multiple data sources into a single, accessible platform. This allows operators to gain insights through conversational interfaces rather than relying solely on data specialists. Brown said: “We’re largely SaaS, we’re without massive technical debt. We’re really AI ready, and our competitors are generally not ready,” underlining the company’s preparedness to capitalise on AI-driven opportunities.

The discussion also covered how Dexibit fits into Accesso’s broader strategy, not just as a standalone product but as a tool to enhance customer retention and win new business. Brown emphasised that the technology could act as a key differentiator in the market, helping the company stay ahead of competitors.

Looking ahead, Accesso is targeting revenue growth in the range of 7–9%, supported by product innovation, payments integration, and continued cost efficiencies driven by AI. Brown also addressed operations in the Middle East, noting that key projects are progressing despite regional uncertainty, and spoke about leadership succession planning to ensure continuity.

      <title>Graphene Manufacturing Group CEO on European sales push, US EPA approval</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd (TSX-V:GMG, OTCQX:GMGMF) CEO Craig Nicol talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about recent milestones, including US EPA approval and European expansion, outlining how these developments are expected to drive revenue growth in the near term.

Nicol highlighted the significance of securing EPA approval for THERMAL-XR, the company’s graphene coating, describing it as a major achievement after years of work. He said, "one of the few companies in the world they've actually got that graphene approval into America through the EPA," underlining the rarity and importance of this regulatory milestone. The approval enables GMG to enter the large US HVAC-R market, supported by distribution partner Nu-Calgon, which provides access to approximately 4,000 distribution points across North America.

The discussion also covered the company’s rapid expansion into Europe, where a newly established sales team is already generating market interest. Nicol explained that the strategy is "a multi-channel, multi-layered approach," targeting sectors such as automotive components and lubricant additives, supported by a growing patent portfolio.

Looking ahead, the company is focused on delivering revenue from its global initiatives, including partnerships in Australia and expanding distribution channels across the US and Europe. Nicol indicated that while early revenues are expected this year, scaling will depend on adoption rates and distribution partner performance.

      <itunes:summary>Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd (TSX-V:GMG, OTCQX:GMGMF) CEO Craig Nicol talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about recent milestones, including US EPA approval and European expansion, outlining how these developments are expected to drive revenue growth in the near term.

Nicol highlighted the significance of securing EPA approval for THERMAL-XR, the company’s graphene coating, describing it as a major achievement after years of work. He said, &quot;one of the few companies in the world they&apos;ve actually got that graphene approval into America through the EPA,&quot; underlining the rarity and importance of this regulatory milestone. The approval enables GMG to enter the large US HVAC-R market, supported by distribution partner Nu-Calgon, which provides access to approximately 4,000 distribution points across North America.

The discussion also covered the company’s rapid expansion into Europe, where a newly established sales team is already generating market interest. Nicol explained that the strategy is &quot;a multi-channel, multi-layered approach,&quot; targeting sectors such as automotive components and lubricant additives, supported by a growing patent portfolio.

Looking ahead, the company is focused on delivering revenue from its global initiatives, including partnerships in Australia and expanding distribution channels across the US and Europe. Nicol indicated that while early revenues are expected this year, scaling will depend on adoption rates and distribution partner performance.

      <title>Light Science CEO on £300k University glasshouse contract and maintenance upside</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Light Science Technologies Holdings PLC (AIM:LST, FRA:9FD) CEO Simon Deacon talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a newly secured contract worth approximately £300,000 to refurbish a university glasshouse in Wales, alongside an expected £19,000 annual maintenance package.

Deacon explained that the project includes a full-service offering spanning hardware, software, and ongoing support. He noted that around 60% of the contract value comes from hardware such as lighting, sensors, environmental controls, and irrigation systems, with the remainder split between installation, maintenance, and software integration. The software component plays a key role in delivering live data and managing multiple growing zones within the facility.

The company is positioning itself as a turnkey solutions provider in the AgTech sector. Deacon highlighted the competitive advantage of offering an integrated package, stating, “what we're providing is that whole turnkey package for growers, farmers who they can become reliant on.” He added that this approach differentiates the company from competitors that focus on individual components such as lighting or sensors.

The contract is also expected to act as a reference site, supporting further growth across the UK and Europe. Deacon pointed to previous projects delivering measurable revenue uplift and emphasised increasing demand as growers seek to improve efficiency amid rising input costs.

He also addressed broader industry drivers, including food security concerns and geopolitical pressures impacting supply chains, which are accelerating demand for localised and technology-enabled food production.

      <title>Gaming Realms CEO on record 2025, 2026 growth outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Gaming Realms PLC (LSE:GMR, OTCQX:PSDMF, FRA:RNE1) CEO Mark Segal talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong financial performance and growth strategy, highlighting the continued momentum of its high-margin licensing business and the global expansion of its Slingo IP.

Segal said the company delivered a “really good start to the year,” with licensing revenue up 10% on a constant currency basis. He explained that operational leverage is being driven by new partnerships, entry into new markets, and the ongoing success of its Slingo games. The company achieved record performance in 2025, supported by what Segal described as “probably our best launch of a Slingo game in history.”

North America remains a key growth driver, accounting for 63% of licensing revenue. Gaming Realms is now active in six US states and recently secured a licence in Alberta, Canada. Segal pointed to market research suggesting the region could grow by more than 60% over the next few years, even without further regulatory expansion, adding that new state openings could significantly increase that opportunity.

The company is also expanding beyond Slingo with the launch of its Lucky Lunar Studio, integrating Slingo mechanics into traditional slot games to broaden its audience and monetisation potential. At the same time, Gaming Realms continues to generate strong cash flow, enabling share buybacks and potential future acquisitions of complementary IP.

Looking ahead, Segal noted that while new UK taxes may impact domestic revenues, strong international growth is expected to offset this.

      <title>Tertiary Minerals MD says JORC compliant target at Mushima North shows major upside</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF, FRA:TMU) managing director Richard Belcher talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest exploration progress at the Mushima North project in Zambia, where a significant silver equivalent exploration target has been outlined.

Belcher described the potential upper range of 58 million ounces of silver equivalent at target A1 as “a fantastic milestone” for the company, particularly given that the discovery was only made just over a year ago. He explained that this early-stage success highlights the rapid advancement of the project and its growing importance within the company’s portfolio.

The discussion also focused on the exploration upside at Mushima North, with Belcher noting that the target remains open in multiple directions and at depth. He highlighted that recent drilling efforts, although cut short by the rainy season, delivered the best intercepts to date, including both strong silver values and high-grade copper mineralisation.

Looking ahead, the company is preparing to resume drilling, with a focus on expanding the known mineralisation and increasing geological confidence ahead of a maiden mineral resource estimate targeted by the end of 2026. Metallurgical studies and infill drilling will form key components of this next phase.

Belcher also emphasised that target A1 is just one of several drill-ready prospects in close proximity, stating there is “lots of upside to go chasing” across the broader project area.

      <title>Seeing Machines CEO &amp; CFO on H1 performance: strong royalties, EBITDA ahead</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Seeing Machines Ltd (AIM:SEE, OTC:SEEMF, FRA:M2Z) CEO Paul McGlone and CFO Martin Ive talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s unaudited first-half results, highlighting a shift in revenue mix, strong royalty growth, and a clear pathway toward profitability.

McGlone explained that while overall revenue declined, this was largely due to reduced non-recurring engineering (NRE) income and the conclusion of certain licensing agreements. He emphasised that this shift improves revenue quality, noting that “the quality of the revenue is significantly enhanced because there's a materially higher margin in royalties”.

The discussion focused heavily on the impact of the upcoming General Safety Regulation (GSR) requirements in Europe, which are expected to drive significant royalty growth. Seeing Machines anticipates a sharp increase in production volumes, with McGlone outlining expectations to deliver over 8 million units in 2026, supported by strong OEM partnerships and market positioning.

Ive highlighted improving profitability driven by higher automotive royalties, better margin mix, and cost efficiencies implemented over the past 12–18 months. The company remains on track to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA in the second half, supported by a projected 3.5x to 4x uplift in production run rates.

The interview also covered progress in the Guardian aftermarket business, refinancing plans, and new technology developments, including interior cabin perception mapping, which could unlock opportunities in autonomous vehicles and adjacent sectors.

      <itunes:summary>Seeing Machines Ltd (AIM:SEE, OTC:SEEMF, FRA:M2Z) CEO Paul McGlone and CFO Martin Ive talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s unaudited first-half results, highlighting a shift in revenue mix, strong royalty growth, and a clear pathway toward profitability.

McGlone explained that while overall revenue declined, this was largely due to reduced non-recurring engineering (NRE) income and the conclusion of certain licensing agreements. He emphasised that this shift improves revenue quality, noting that “the quality of the revenue is significantly enhanced because there&apos;s a materially higher margin in royalties”.

The discussion focused heavily on the impact of the upcoming General Safety Regulation (GSR) requirements in Europe, which are expected to drive significant royalty growth. Seeing Machines anticipates a sharp increase in production volumes, with McGlone outlining expectations to deliver over 8 million units in 2026, supported by strong OEM partnerships and market positioning.

Ive highlighted improving profitability driven by higher automotive royalties, better margin mix, and cost efficiencies implemented over the past 12–18 months. The company remains on track to achieve positive adjusted EBITDA in the second half, supported by a projected 3.5x to 4x uplift in production run rates.

The interview also covered progress in the Guardian aftermarket business, refinancing plans, and new technology developments, including interior cabin perception mapping, which could unlock opportunities in autonomous vehicles and adjacent sectors.

      <title>Middlefield CEO outlines shift to ETF structure for Canadian income fund</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Middlefield Chief Executive Officer Dean Orrico joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the evolution of the Middlefield Canadian Enhanced Income UCITS ETF and the firm’s decision to transition from a traditional investment trust structure to an actively managed ETF.

Orrico explained that the fund had operated for nearly two decades as a London-listed investment trust before being converted, a move driven by the rapid growth of ETFs in North America and their increasing adoption across European markets. Importantly, he emphasized that the transition enhances efficiency without changing the fund’s core strategy, noting that it continues to follow the same disciplined investment approach, management style, and income-focused mandate developed over the years.

The shift to an ETF structure brings several key advantages. Among them are improved liquidity and tighter price alignment with net asset value, eliminating the persistent discount that often impacted the investment trust. In addition, the fund now benefits from lower total expense ratios, making it more cost-effective for investors. Active market makers further support the structure by ensuring consistent liquidity and smoother trading across major exchanges.

Orrico also pointed to the broader macroeconomic environment as a tailwind for the strategy. With significant exposure to Canada’s core sectors—including energy, financials, and materials—the fund offers diversification benefits, particularly for European investors looking to reduce reliance on U.S.-dominated portfolios.

He highlighted that ongoing geopolitical disruptions and evolving global energy dynamics are increasing attention on resource-rich economies like Canada. As global supply chains adjust and demand for critical resources grows, Canada’s position as a stable and reliable supplier is becoming more prominent.
Overall, the transition reflects Middlefield’s effort to modernize its product offering, aligning with investor demand for greater liquidity, transparency, and cost efficiency, while continuing to deliver a proven Canadian income strategy.

      <title>Abacus Global reports record 2025 performance with $580M deployed</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Abacus Global Management CEO Jay Jackson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce record-setting origination and transaction activity for the full year ended December 31, 2025, marking a milestone year for the company as it set new benchmarks across all key portfolio metrics.

Jackson highlighted that Abacus acquired a total of 1,310 life insurance policies during 2025, showcasing the strength of its origination platform and its ability to consistently source high-quality deals within the secondary market. The company deployed $580.8 million in capital over the year, reflecting both the scale of its operations and its deep commitment to the life settlement asset class.

In addition to strong origination, Abacus demonstrated significant portfolio activity, trading 1,059 policies throughout the year. This level of transaction volume underscores the company’s ability to actively manage liquidity while optimizing portfolio performance. The total face value of policies traded reached approximately $1.8 billion, further solidifying Abacus’ position as a leading participant in the secondary market.

Financially, the company generated $178.6 million in realized gains from portfolio transactions in 2025, compared to $49.3 million in unrealized gains. This highlights Abacus’ ability to effectively monetize its assets and convert portfolio value into tangible returns. By year-end, the company held $468.9 million in policies on its balance sheet at fair value, providing a strong foundation for continued growth.

Jackson emphasized that these results represent more than incremental progress, describing them as industry-defining achievements. He added that the company’s strong operating momentum, growing asset base, and expanding institutional relationships position Abacus Global well to continue delivering value for shareholders in the years ahead.

      <title>Midnight Sun defines large-scale copper potential at Zambia’s Dumbwa Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Midnight Sun Mining Corp Vice President Business Development  Adrian O’Brien joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s latest progress at its Dumbwa Project in Zambia, where ongoing drilling continues to define what could become a significant large-scale copper discovery.

O’Brien explained that the project has now moved firmly into the resource delineation phase following its initial discovery in August. To date, the company has completed 166 drill holes, establishing approximately four kilometres of strike length—an early indication of the scale of the mineralized system. The broader exploration target lies within a 20-kilometre copper-in-soil geochemical anomaly, which O’Brien described as one of the largest and highest-grade anomalies ever identified in Zambia.

Rather than pursuing widely spaced step-out drilling, Midnight Sun is employing a systematic, tight-spacing drill strategy designed to build a detailed and reliable understanding of the deposit. This methodical approach is expected to support the development of a robust resource estimate and reduce geological uncertainty as the project advances.

The company is currently targeting between 1 billion and 1.5 billion tonnes of mineralization within the first 12 kilometres of the anomaly, with this phase of drilling anticipated to be completed by the third quarter. This scale highlights the potential for Dumbwa to emerge as a major copper asset within Zambia’s prolific Copperbelt region.

O’Brien also emphasized the company’s strong financial position, with approximately $35 million in treasury supporting an aggressive drill campaign of roughly 10,000 metres per month across five active rigs. This level of funding provides the flexibility to maintain momentum and accelerate exploration efforts.

Beyond the technical progress, O’Brien pointed to increasing geopolitical interest in Zambia’s copper sector, as global demand for critical minerals continues to rise. Heightened competition among major economies to secure stable copper supply chains could further elevate the strategic importance of the Dumbwa Project as it advances toward potential development.

      <title>Connecting Excellence CEO Scott Ellam on H1 growth, hiring &amp; Bitcoin strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Connecting Excellence Group Plc (AQSE:XCE, OTCQB:XCELF) CEO Scott Ellam talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnionabout the company’s strong financial performance, growth strategy, and its evolving Bitcoin treasury approach.

Ellam discussed the company’s reported 20% net fee income growth for the first half of the financial year, emphasising that this performance was not driven by its December IPO. Instead, he explained it reflects sustained momentum built since 2021, noting that “there’s no cause and effect between the net fee income increase and the IPO.”

A key focus for the business is scaling through talent acquisition. The company is targeting experienced, high-performing executive recruiters who can bring established client relationships and generate significant revenue. Ellam highlighted the scalability of this model, stating: “We have the opportunity to expand the business, and we have a scalable platform for growth.”

He also addressed rising average fees, which have increased due to higher salaries and demand for senior talent, reinforcing the company’s shift toward higher-value placements.

On the balance sheet side, Ellam outlined the firm’s Bitcoin treasury strategy, with over 50 Bitcoin held. He described this as a long-term decision, acknowledging short-term volatility but expressing confidence in long-term performance trends.

Looking ahead, XCE is balancing investment across hiring, potential acquisitions, and Bitcoin accumulation, aiming to compound growth across both its operational and capital markets strategies.

      <title>American Resources expands rare earth refining capacity at Indiana campus</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp CEO Mark Jensen joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on its subsidiary ReElement Technologies Corporation and the continued progress of its Phase 1 refining campus buildout in Marion, Indiana.

Jensen announced that ReElement has expanded its Phase 1 development plan to include four production lines capable of processing both recycled and primary feedstocks. Once fully operational, the facility is expected to deliver more than 16,000 metric tons of annual separated and purified oxide capacity, positioning the company as a significant emerging player in the rare earth and critical minerals refining space.

The project remains on schedule and is tracking substantially under budget, with initial production targeted for the third quarter of 2026. Full commissioning of Phase 1 is expected to take place through the remainder of the year, marking a key milestone as the company transitions from development into scaled operations.

Jensen emphasized that the Marion expansion reflects the company’s ability to execute efficiently while partnering with high-quality supply chain and investment groups focused on reshaping the global refining industry. Over the past year, ReElement has moved from product validation into scaled deployment, steadily increasing capacity while optimizing its cost structure to remain competitive on both pricing and volume in global markets.

At the core of the company’s strategy is its “refining-first” platform, designed for flexibility and adaptability. The system can process a wide range of feedstocks and adjust in real time to changing inputs and market dynamics. Through advanced process controls and data-driven optimization, ReElement is reducing chemical usage, lowering energy consumption, and cutting overall operating costs compared to traditional refining approaches.

These innovations allow the company to compete not only on product purity and versatility but also on economic efficiency—delivering a scalable and commercially viable solution for domestic and allied markets. With more than 80% of global rare earth refining capacity currently concentrated outside the United States, the development of domestic refining infrastructure is increasingly viewed as critical to strengthening supply chain security.

ReElement’s ability to process both recycled and primary materials into high-purity outputs directly addresses the midstream refining gap, offering a modular and environmentally responsible alternative to conventional solvent-based refining methods. These traditional processes are often difficult to deploy outside of China due to environmental, capital, and operational challenges, further highlighting the strategic importance of ReElement’s approach.

      <title>Ecora Royalties CEO on 2025 results, critical minerals milestone &amp; 2026 outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ecora Royalties PLC (LSE:ECOR, TSX:ECOR, OTCQX:ECRAF, FRA:HGR) PLC CEO Marc Bishop Lafleche talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 2025 results and outlook for 2026, highlighting a transformative year driven by critical minerals and strong portfolio performance.

Lafleche described 2025 as a “landmark year” for the company, with more than half of portfolio contributions coming from critical minerals and base metals growing significantly year-on-year. He emphasised that Ecora’s revenue base is now supported by long-life assets, strengthening the company’s long-term cash generation profile.

A key development during the year was the acquisition of the Mimbula copper stream, which increased Ecora’s exposure to copper and positioned it as a core commodity within the portfolio. Alongside this, the company demonstrated strong financial discipline by reducing net debt despite the acquisition, reflecting robust cash flow generation and active portfolio management.

Looking ahead, Lafleche outlined a “distinctly multi-layered” growth profile, stating: “Ecora’s growth profile is now distinctly multi-layered,” with opportunities spanning short-term production increases, medium-term development assets, and longer-term de-risking milestones.

For 2026, growth is expected to be driven primarily by increased volumes from key assets such as Voisey’s Bay and Mimbula, alongside potential brownfield expansions and development milestones across the portfolio. The company also continues to evaluate new royalty and streaming opportunities, with a focus on expanding its exposure to critical minerals while maintaining copper at its core.

      <title>IXICO CEO says milestone Medidata collaboration supports growth strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[IXICO PLC (LSE:IXI, OTC:PHYOF, FRA:PYPB) CEO Bram Goorden talked with Proactiv's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s new collaboration with Medidata and how it supports IXICO’s growth strategy in the clinical trials space.

Goorden described the agreement as a significant milestone, highlighting Medidata’s position as “a multibillion dollar player in the clinical trial space” with a global footprint across thousands of trials. The partnership combines Medidata’s electronic data capture and clinical trial technologies with IXICO’s proprietary neuroimaging analytics to create a more seamless solution for biopharma clients.

He explained that the collaboration strengthens IXICO’s ability to scale, giving the company access to larger and more complex clinical trials. Goorden noted that the deal aligns with IXICO’s long-term ambition to expand its presence in high-value studies while enhancing operational reach.

The CEO also pointed to recent commercial momentum, including a £1.5 million contract extension for a global Phase 2 trial and the appointment of a new chief commercial officer, Tanya Voloshen. These developments reflect what he described as “a very busy quarter” for the company.

Looking ahead, Goorden emphasised that the Medidata collaboration represents the beginning of a broader “tech bio strategy,” adding that it is expected to support recurring revenue streams and accelerate growth.

      <itunes:subtitle>IXICO PLC (LSE:IXI, OTC:PHYOF, FRA:PYPB) CEO Bram Goorden talked with Proactiv&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s new collaboration with Medidata and how it supports IXICO’s growth strategy in the clinical trials space.

Goorden described the agreement as a significant milestone, highlighting Medidata’s position as “a multibillion dollar player in the clinical trial space” with a global footprint across thousands of trials. The partnership combines Medidata’s electronic data capture and clinical trial technologies with IXICO’s proprietary neuroimaging analytics to create a more seamless solution for biopharma clients.

He explained that the collaboration strengthens IXICO’s ability to scale, giving the company access to larger and more complex clinical trials. Goorden noted that the deal aligns with IXICO’s long-term ambition to expand its presence in high-value studies while enhancing operational reach.

The CEO also pointed to recent commercial momentum, including a £1.5 million contract extension for a global Phase 2 trial and the appointment of a new chief commercial officer, Tanya Voloshen. These developments reflect what he described as “a very busy quarter” for the company.

Looking ahead, Goorden emphasised that the Medidata collaboration represents the beginning of a broader “tech bio strategy,” adding that it is expected to support recurring revenue streams and accelerate growth.

      <title>Alusid CEO on Tegelgroep Nederland distribution deal and growing European footprint</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Alusid CEO Alasdair Bremner talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s expanding European footprint, highlighting new distribution agreements and growing demand for its low-carbon ceramic tiles.

Bremner explained that Alusid is gaining traction beyond the UK, noting that its products “use roughly half the carbon or half the energy compared to pretty much any other competitor.” The company’s latest agreement in the Netherlands will see its Mas product stocked locally, while partnerships with FRONT Materials BV and Tegelgroeop Nederlands are supporting product development tailored to the European market.

He emphasised the strategic importance of Tegelgroeop, which operates across the Benelux region and sits within the wider BME Group, offering a significant opportunity for future expansion. In parallel, Alusid has also secured a partnership with Kakelspecialisten in Sweden, one of the largest tile distributors in the country and part of the Saint-Gobain Group.

Bremner highlighted that the Nordic region is particularly attractive due to strong demand for sustainable materials, driven by both client expectations and evolving legislation. He said: “Our lower carbon proposition is credible. It’s verified externally, and it’s built into the product from the start.”

The company’s manufacturing process not only reduces carbon emissions but also lowers energy use, providing cost and resilience benefits in a challenging energy environment. Looking ahead, Alusid is using recent pre-IPO funding to accelerate product development, expand international distribution, and invest in new formats, including larger tiles and moulded products.

      <description><![CDATA[Delivra Health Brands CEO Gord Davey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the upcoming U.S. launch of the company’s Dream Water Kids Sleep Gummies, with distribution expected across retail, distributor, and e-commerce channels beginning in June 2026.

The new product is specifically formulated to support healthy sleep routines in children, featuring a blend of chamomile, lemon balm, and 1 mg of melatonin. Designed with both effectiveness and safety in mind, the gummies are lightly sweetened using honey and cane sugar, and are free from artificial colors, flavors, gelatin, and gluten—appealing to parents seeking cleaner, more natural wellness solutions for their families.

Davey explained that the launch underscores Delivra’s broader strategy to expand its portfolio of wellness products and address growing consumer demand for trusted, convenient sleep support options for children. He noted that parents are increasingly looking for gentle, reliable solutions to help establish consistent bedtime routines, and the Dream Water Kids Sleep Gummies aim to fill that need.

Following multiple phases of product testing, the company reported strong positive feedback from participants, which ultimately led to an accelerated timeline for commercialization. Originally planned for a later rollout, the product’s U.S. debut has now been moved up to June 2026 to capitalize on early momentum and market interest.

Delivra Health believes the introduction of Dream Water Kids Sleep Gummies will further strengthen its presence in the growing sleep aid category, while reinforcing its commitment to delivering high-quality, science-backed wellness products tailored to everyday consumer needs.

      <title>Aftermath Silver reports strong Phase 3 drill results at Berenguela project in Peru</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the first batch of assay results from the company’s Phase 3 diamond drilling program at its Berenguela silver-copper-manganese deposit in the Department of Puno, southern Peru.

Rushton said the latest results cover 17 drill holes totaling 1,061.6 metres, part of an initial 45-hole program. Encouraged by positive geological indicators, strong drill access, and the efficiency of a smaller diamond drill rig, the company has expanded the program significantly to 90 holes totaling approximately 6,000 metres.

The company also made a strategic shift from its originally planned 2,000-metre reverse circulation (RC) program to diamond drilling at a comparable cost. This transition provides enhanced geological insight, including improved core recovery, structural interpretation, and geotechnical logging—key factors in advancing the project toward development.

The reported drill holes are primarily focused on infill drilling along a 225-metre strike length within the boundaries of the existing mineral resource. The objective is to better define near-surface, high-grade mineralization that could support a potential starter pit as part of future mining operations.

Aftermath Silver is concentrating its efforts on the western portion of the deposit, where higher-grade silver-copper mineralization has been identified close to surface. This area is considered a strong candidate for initial open-pit development, offering the potential for lower-cost, early-stage production.
Rushton noted that the latest intercepts rank among the strongest results seen across the company’s three phases of drilling to date. He also highlighted the consistent and encouraging association between silver and copper mineralization, which could enhance the overall economic profile of the Berenguela project moving forward.

      <title>Titomic targets aerospace growth with cold spray tech - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Titomic Limited (ASX:TTT, OTC:TITMF) CFO Geoff Hollis talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s advanced manufacturing capabilities powered by its proprietary Titomic Kinetic Fusion Technology and how it is positioning itself for growth across defence, aerospace, and industrial sectors.

Hollis explained that Titomic has transitioned into a more commercially focused phase, supported by a refreshed board and management team over the past two years. The company is targeting major global markets, particularly in the US, where it has established operational headquarters in Huntsville, Alabama — a key hub for defence and aerospace activity.

He outlined how Titomic Kinetic Fusion works by accelerating metal powders at high speeds to form fully bonded metal parts, enabling rapid production of large-scale components. Hollis noted that the “sweet spot” includes pressure vessels up to three metres in diameter, with the key advantage being speed and efficiency of manufacturing.

The company is also gaining traction through early-stage contracts with major defence primes, including a US$1.7 million agreement linked to hypersonic technologies. Hollis said: “You never get inserted into a program with a $20 million production contract… you have to start with early-stage R&D contracts,” highlighting the pathway toward larger-scale opportunities.

Beyond manufacturing, Titomic is advancing corrosion protection solutions, with testing showing potential durability of up to 15 years compared to traditional methods. With strong demand across defence, oil and gas, and maritime sectors, the company is working toward deeper integration into global supply chains.

Hollis explained that Titomic has transitioned into a more commercially focused phase, supported by a refreshed board and management team over the past two years. The company is targeting major global markets, particularly in the US, where it has established operational headquarters in Huntsville, Alabama — a key hub for defence and aerospace activity.

He outlined how Titomic Kinetic Fusion works by accelerating metal powders at high speeds to form fully bonded metal parts, enabling rapid production of large-scale components. Hollis noted that the “sweet spot” includes pressure vessels up to three metres in diameter, with the key advantage being speed and efficiency of manufacturing.

The company is also gaining traction through early-stage contracts with major defence primes, including a US$1.7 million agreement linked to hypersonic technologies. Hollis said: “You never get inserted into a program with a $20 million production contract… you have to start with early-stage R&amp;D contracts,” highlighting the pathway toward larger-scale opportunities.

Beyond manufacturing, Titomic is advancing corrosion protection solutions, with testing showing potential durability of up to 15 years compared to traditional methods. With strong demand across defence, oil and gas, and maritime sectors, the company is working toward deeper integration into global supply chains.

      <title>Capral CEO on margins, demand &amp; growth plans - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Capral Limited (ASX:CAA) CEO & managing director Tony Dragicevich talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s position as Australia’s largest aluminium extrusion and distribution business, its market exposure, and its strategy for navigating current economic conditions.

Dragicevich explained that Capral has built a strong foundation over its 90-year history, supplying aluminium products across residential, commercial, and industrial sectors. He highlighted the material’s versatility, noting that aluminium is widely used due to its strength and lightweight properties, particularly in construction and transport applications. A significant portion of Capral Limited’s volume is tied to residential housing, especially windows and doors, which remain the largest use of aluminium in Australia.

He also pointed to growth areas in industrial markets, including transport, shipbuilding, and infrastructure. Notably, Capral Limited supplied nearly 2,000 tonnes of aluminium for the Western Sydney Airport project, underlining its role in major national developments.

Despite softer demand in residential construction, Dragicevich said margins have remained resilient, driven by a strategic shift toward higher-margin industrial segments. “Our margins are holding up because we’re growing our share… in higher margin parts of the industry,” he said.

Looking ahead, Capral Limited is pursuing growth through acquisitions and expansion into adjacent product categories such as hardware. With a strong balance sheet and expectations of a housing market recovery, the company is positioning for improved volumes in the near term.

      <title>Centaurus achieves milestone at Jaguar project with Glencore offtake deal - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Centaurus Metals Limited (ASX:CTM, OTCQX:CTTZF) CEO & managing director Darren Gordon talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s progress advancing its flagship Jaguar nickel sulfide project in Brazil and the next steps toward development.

Gordon explained that Centaurus has spent several years de-risking the Jaguar project through extensive drilling, multiple resource updates and feasibility studies, and is now focused on securing funding to move into construction. He said: “We're really going through the funding phase to ultimately make investment decision and start the build.”

A key recent milestone is an offtake agreement with Glencore, which validates the quality of the project’s nickel concentrate and provides strategic support. Gordon highlighted that Glencore’s role as both trader and end user strengthens the project’s credentials, particularly with material expected to supply its Sudbury operations in Canada.

The company is also progressing debt financing discussions, including a proposed US$190 million loan from Brazil’s National Development Bank. Gordon noted that nickel’s status as a critical mineral in Brazil aligns well with the bank’s priorities, and ongoing due diligence has brought the process closer to a more binding agreement.

Commenting on market conditions, Gordon said sentiment has improved in recent months after a challenging period for nickel prices, with renewed investor interest supporting funding efforts. He emphasised that Centaurus Metals Limited is positioned at the lower end of the cost curve with a large resource base, offering strong potential upside once funding is secured.

      <title>Calix CEO on low-carbon cement &amp; steel opportunity - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Calix Limited (ASX:CXL) CEO & managing director Phil Hodgson talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s proprietary technology and its role in tackling global industrial decarbonisation challenges.

Hodgson explained how Calix has developed a unique indirect heating process using a vertical steel tube system, enabling efficient mineral processing while capturing carbon emissions. He noted: “We’ve got a new way to heat stuff up… it’s a new type of kiln for us… called indirect heating,” highlighting the flexibility of the system, which can run on natural gas, biomass, or renewable electricity.

The interview outlines how this technology can significantly reduce emissions in major industries such as cement and steel, each responsible for roughly 8% of global CO2 output. Hodgson emphasised the scale of the opportunity, pointing to a potential addressable market tied to billions of tonnes of emissions reduction annually.

He also discussed Calix’s diversified business model, including its growing water treatment segment, which provides a steady revenue base, alongside its sustainable processing and low-emissions initiatives. Recent milestones, including calcined clay production and ARENA grant funding, demonstrate continued commercial progress and validation of the technology.

Hodgson concluded by outlining the investment case, balancing long-term growth potential with near-term revenue stability, describing “plenty of upside opportunity” supported by disciplined execution.

The company continues to innovate, including the development of its gel emulsion technology designed to improve product stability in non-refrigerated markets, particularly across Asia. Clover Corporation has also seen strong uptake in the US and ongoing testing across Asian markets.

Financially, the company delivered a strong first half, reporting revenue growth of 17% to $44 million and improved margins. Davey highlighted expanding demand across Australia, New Zealand and Europe, alongside a solid balance sheet and increased inventory to support growth.

Looking ahead, Clover Corporation is advancing new products such as its encapsulated choline solution, with commercialisation expected in the next financial year. With a global footprint and long-standing customer relationships, the company is positioning itself for continued expansion.

      <itunes:summary>Clover Corporation Limited (ASX:CLV) CEO &amp; managing director Peter Davey talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s technology-driven approach to delivering omega-3 and omega-6 nutritional solutions, and how this is supporting strong global growth.

Davey explained that Clover specialises in microencapsulation technology, which allows oils such as fish, algal and fungal oils to be converted into powder form. This process removes taste and smell while preserving nutritional benefits, enabling integration into a wide range of food and beverage products. As he put it, “we effectively turn oil into powder,” making it easier to incorporate essential nutrients without compromising product quality.

The company continues to innovate, including the development of its gel emulsion technology designed to improve product stability in non-refrigerated markets, particularly across Asia. Clover Corporation has also seen strong uptake in the US and ongoing testing across Asian markets.

Financially, the company delivered a strong first half, reporting revenue growth of 17% to $44 million and improved margins. Davey highlighted expanding demand across Australia, New Zealand and Europe, alongside a solid balance sheet and increased inventory to support growth.

Looking ahead, Clover Corporation is advancing new products such as its encapsulated choline solution, with commercialisation expected in the next financial year. With a global footprint and long-standing customer relationships, the company is positioning itself for continued expansion.

      <title>Beetaloo Energy CEO on Carpentaria project and Australia’s gas future - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Beetaloo Energy Australia Limited (ASX:BTL, OTC:EEGUF) CEO Alex Underwood talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s progress in the Beetaloo Basin and the development of its Carpentaria project.

Underwood outlined the scale of the Beetaloo Basin, describing it as “one of the largest gas deposits in the world, containing enough gas to power Australia for the next 200 years.” He explained that the company is currently in the appraisal phase, focused on proving the commercial viability of its gas resources while maintaining strong relationships with the Northern Territory government, traditional owners and local stakeholders.

A key focus of the discussion was the Carpentaria pilot project, where Beetaloo Energy has already drilled multiple wells and completed fracture stimulation. The company also achieved a milestone with what Underwood described as “the biggest fracture simulation in Australian history” on the Carpentaria-5H well.

Looking ahead, Underwood highlighted near-term catalysts including further flow testing, installation of gas processing infrastructure and commencing pilot production. He also stressed the growing importance of domestic energy supply, noting that Australia remains heavily reliant on hydrocarbons despite the push toward renewables.

Underwood emphasised the broader investment case, pointing to a “massive gas resource” with increasing confidence in its economic viability and significant upside potential as development progresses.

      <title>Oneview Healthcare CEO on boosting patient care efficiency with AI - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Oneview Healthcare Plc (ASX:ONE, OTC:ONVVF) CEO James Fitter talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about how the company is transforming the digital care environment through innovative technology designed to improve patient outcomes and hospital efficiency.

Fitter explained that Oneview Healthcare provides a unified platform that connects typically disconnected hospital systems, with a focus on improving patient experiences and supporting care teams. He said the company’s goal is to use bedside technology to help patients “get home safer, faster, better informed, less likely to readmit,” while also reducing pressure on healthcare staff.

A key challenge addressed by the company is workforce strain, particularly the global nursing shortage. Fitter highlighted how Oneview’s solutions help streamline workflows by redirecting non-clinical requests, such as requests for water or room adjustments, away from nurses and toward appropriate staff, allowing clinicians to focus on patient care.

The discussion also covered the company’s new AI-powered virtual patient assistant, Ovi. This tool enables patients to interact באמצעות voice or interface to ask questions, manage requests, and access information. Importantly, the AI also generates summaries and insights for care teams, helping improve decision-making and workflow coordination.

Looking ahead, Oneview Healthcare is piloting Ovi with major US hospitals, with plans for broader commercial rollout. Fitter noted that new product innovations could significantly increase revenue per hospital bed while strengthening long-term customer integration.

      <title>Artrya AI Tech targets hidden heart disease risk - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Artrya Limited CEO & Co-Founder John Konstantopoulos talked with Jonathan Jackson from Proactive at the Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s AI-driven approach to transforming heart disease detection and diagnosis.

He explained that heart disease remains the leading cause of death globally, often going undetected until it is too late. Konstantopoulos highlighted a key issue in current diagnostics, stating, “what is really causing the heart attack is a soft inflammation that forms early on and doctors don’t see it.”

Artrya’s solution uses artificial intelligence to analyse coronary angiograms and identify inflammatory plaque in real time, enabling earlier and more precise risk assessment without invasive procedures. The company is also leveraging AI to simulate blood flow non-invasively, further enhancing diagnostic capabilities.

A major focus for Artrya is its Sapphire study, which aims to demonstrate how earlier detection—particularly in asymptomatic patients—could shift the standard of care toward prevention. The study also serves as a commercial pathway, helping the company engage major US hospital systems and accelerate contract conversions.

Konstantopoulos outlined a significant market opportunity, with 4.5 million CT scans conducted annually and a total addressable market valued at $4.4 billion. With cloud-based software delivering margins above 90%, the company is positioning itself for scalable growth. Near-term milestones include study results, regulatory clearances, and expanding its US customer base.

      <title>Mayne Pharma growth strategy in Women’s health - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Mayne Pharma Group Limited CEO Aaron Gray talked with Jonathan Jackson from Proactive at the Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s strategy, product portfolio, and recent H1 results, highlighting its focus on women’s health and dermatology markets in the United States.

Gray explained that Mayne Pharma operates across three business units, with two generating all revenue from the US, focused on women’s health and dermatology, while a third international unit covers Australia and other global markets. He emphasized the strength of its women’s health portfolio, which includes four reproductive health products spanning contraception and menopause treatment.

He noted that these are “really best in class products,” pointing to innovations such as plant-derived estrogen therapies and combination drug-device solutions designed to improve patient outcomes and access. A key priority for the company is ensuring these treatments reach patients efficiently, with Gray stating the focus is “really about patient access.”

In dermatology, Mayne Pharma holds 31 products targeting conditions such as psoriasis and acne. Despite industry challenges around insurance reimbursement, the company has differentiated itself by maintaining profitability and delivering treatments to patients through alternative access strategies.
Discussing financial performance, Gray said the company delivered $212 million in H1 revenue and generated $16.9 million in operating cash flow, describing the results as “very resilient” despite a challenging environment.

Looking ahead, Mayne Pharma is focused on expanding access strategies, strengthening its salesforce, and capitalizing on growth in the US hormone replacement therapy market. Gray highlighted strong fundamentals, including patent protection, growing market share, and “significant headroom to take more market share”

      <itunes:summary>Mayne Pharma Group Limited CEO Aaron Gray talked with Jonathan Jackson from Proactive at the Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s strategy, product portfolio, and recent H1 results, highlighting its focus on women’s health and dermatology markets in the United States.

Gray explained that Mayne Pharma operates across three business units, with two generating all revenue from the US, focused on women’s health and dermatology, while a third international unit covers Australia and other global markets. He emphasized the strength of its women’s health portfolio, which includes four reproductive health products spanning contraception and menopause treatment.

He noted that these are “really best in class products,” pointing to innovations such as plant-derived estrogen therapies and combination drug-device solutions designed to improve patient outcomes and access. A key priority for the company is ensuring these treatments reach patients efficiently, with Gray stating the focus is “really about patient access.”

In dermatology, Mayne Pharma holds 31 products targeting conditions such as psoriasis and acne. Despite industry challenges around insurance reimbursement, the company has differentiated itself by maintaining profitability and delivering treatments to patients through alternative access strategies.
Discussing financial performance, Gray said the company delivered $212 million in H1 revenue and generated $16.9 million in operating cash flow, describing the results as “very resilient” despite a challenging environment.

Looking ahead, Mayne Pharma is focused on expanding access strategies, strengthening its salesforce, and capitalizing on growth in the US hormone replacement therapy market. Gray highlighted strong fundamentals, including patent protection, growing market share, and “significant headroom to take more market share”

      <title>Amplia COO discusses FAK inhibitor breakthrough in cancer trial - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Amplia Therapeutics Limited (ASX:ATX, OTCQB:INNMF) chief operating officer Dr Rhiannon Jones talked with Jonathan Jackson with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s development of Focal Adhesion Kinase (FAK) inhibitors targeting fibrotic cancers, including pancreatic and ovarian cancer.

Jones explained how Amplia’s lead drug works to reduce the fibrotic matrix surrounding tumours, improving the ability of chemotherapy to penetrate and act effectively. She noted that this approach is particularly relevant in difficult-to-treat cancers such as pancreatic cancer, where dense tissue can limit treatment success.

Discussing results from the ongoing ACCENT clinical trial, Jones highlighted a significant milestone. Independent reviewers identified multiple complete responses, with tumours and metastases disappearing in several patients. As she stated: “There were five patients across both the part A and part B of the study that had a disappearance of the tumour and metastases.” She added that this compares favourably to historical data, where such outcomes are extremely rare.

Jones emphasised that while curing pancreatic cancer remains challenging, progress is being made through combination therapies and continued research. She also outlined Amplia’s upcoming milestones, including further data releases, continued progression of pancreatic cancer trials, and potential expansion into ovarian cancer studies.

The company is also presenting its latest findings at major international conferences, helping raise awareness among key opinion leaders and the broader oncology community.

      <title>Pureprofile CEO on record earnings, US expansion &amp; M&amp;A - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pureprofile Limited (ASX:PPL) CEO Martin Filz talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s role in the global market research industry and how data-driven insights are shaping decision-making across sectors.

Filz explained that Pureprofile operates within a US$145 billion global market, providing access to millions of consumers worldwide who contribute real-time behavioural data and participate in surveys. This enables governments, brands and organisations to better understand shifting consumer habits, especially during periods of uncertainty. As Filz noted: “Data is needed to run every system that most people are using,” highlighting the increasing importance of high-quality, reliable datasets.

The company’s strong performance, including record first-half earnings, has been driven by its focus on data quality, client delivery, and new AI-powered platform solutions. Filz also pointed to strategic expansion efforts, particularly in the US and UK, where Pureprofile continues to gain market share as a challenger brand.

A key milestone discussed was the Cornerstone acquisition, which enhances Pureprofile’s capabilities in qualitative research and allows it to offer a more comprehensive, end-to-end service to clients. This complements its existing quantitative strengths and opens new revenue opportunities through cross-selling.

Looking ahead, Filz outlined a clear growth strategy centred on further acquisitions, particularly in the US, and continued investment in scalable technology. With strong cash reserves and increasing demand for data-driven insights, the company is positioning itself for sustained expansion.

      <title>QuickFee CFO on dividend debut &amp; core strategy focus - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[QuickFee Limited (ASX:QFE, OTC:QFEFF) CFO Simon Yeandle talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s business model, recent strategic shift, and growth outlook across Australia and the United States.

QuickFee provides funding and payment solutions to accounting and legal firms, helping them improve cash flow by getting paid faster. Yeandle explained that the company pays firms upfront while clients repay over time, noting that this model is supported by strong underwriting from professional firms. As he highlighted, “we’ve had very, very few bad debts ever… so it becomes a very, very low risk product.”

The discussion also covered QuickFee’s return to its core finance operations following the sale of its US payments and software division. Yeandle said the move allows the company to focus entirely on scaling its lending model across both regions, leveraging established relationships and reseller agreements in the US market.

Growth opportunities remain strong, particularly in the US through access to major CPA firms, and in Australia within the legal sector. Yeandle also pointed to additional niche offerings, including funding solutions for personal injury and family law cases.

From an investment perspective, QuickFee is now profitable and has recently paid its first dividend. Yeandle emphasised the company’s commitment to “continue paying dividends, growing the business and returning cash to shareholders.”

      <title>Felix Group: Scaling procurement with AI insights - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Felix Group Holdings Limited (ASX:FLX) interim CEO & CFO James Frayne talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s cloud-based procurement platform and how it is transforming supply chain management through digitisation and automation.

Frayne explained that Felix’s mission is to replace fragmented and paper-based systems with a unified platform that improves transparency, governance, and risk management across contractor and vendor networks. The platform acts as a central hub for vendor pre-qualification, enabling businesses to assess compliance, ESG factors, and operational risks more effectively.

He highlighted the growing importance of data in managing supply chains, noting that Felix’s system allows customers to interrogate vendor information and ensure higher standards across projects. As Frayne put it, “the supply chain needs to be digitised and is in the process of being digitised,” underlining the structural shift the company is targeting.

Looking ahead, artificial intelligence is a key focus. With millions of compliance documents, RFQ responses, and vendor data points collected over more than a decade, the company sees significant potential to automate decision-making and reduce administrative burdens for clients.

Frayne also pointed to growth opportunities through international expansion and the acquisition of NextYear, which adds over 120,000 subcontractors to its ecosystem. Combined with a large domestic market opportunity, these initiatives position the company for further scale.

      <itunes:summary>Felix Group Holdings Limited (ASX:FLX) interim CEO &amp; CFO James Frayne talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s cloud-based procurement platform and how it is transforming supply chain management through digitisation and automation.

Frayne explained that Felix’s mission is to replace fragmented and paper-based systems with a unified platform that improves transparency, governance, and risk management across contractor and vendor networks. The platform acts as a central hub for vendor pre-qualification, enabling businesses to assess compliance, ESG factors, and operational risks more effectively.

He highlighted the growing importance of data in managing supply chains, noting that Felix’s system allows customers to interrogate vendor information and ensure higher standards across projects. As Frayne put it, “the supply chain needs to be digitised and is in the process of being digitised,” underlining the structural shift the company is targeting.

Looking ahead, artificial intelligence is a key focus. With millions of compliance documents, RFQ responses, and vendor data points collected over more than a decade, the company sees significant potential to automate decision-making and reduce administrative burdens for clients.

Frayne also pointed to growth opportunities through international expansion and the acquisition of NextYear, which adds over 120,000 subcontractors to its ecosystem. Combined with a large domestic market opportunity, these initiatives position the company for further scale.

      <title>Articore CEO on growth strategy driving profit turnaround- ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Articore Group Limited (ASX:ATG, OTC:RDBBF) group CEO & managing director Vivek Kumar talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s global marketplace operations, turnaround strategy, and renewed focus on profitable growth.

Kumar explained that Articore operates two major global platforms, Redbubble and TeePublic, alongside its newer creator storefront platform, Dashery. These platforms enable creators to upload original designs, which customers can browse and purchase on a wide range of products fulfilled through a global supply chain. He highlighted that the depth of content is a key differentiator, noting the platforms host “75 million designs” with “10,000 getting uploaded every single day,” helping users express individuality through unique products.

The discussion also focused on Articore’s recent turnaround strategy. Over the past 15 months, the company has unified previously separate teams into a single structure, improving efficiency across supply chain and marketing. Kumar said this has delivered “significant cost leverage” and contributed to strong financial outcomes, including a $14.3 million turnaround and the highest gross margins in the company’s history.

Kumar emphasised that Articore is now cash flow positive, with improving contribution margins and moderating revenue declines. He pointed to several quarters of profitable growth as evidence the strategy is working, adding that the company is now focused on scaling sustainably.

      <title>Harmoney CEO on proprietary tech platform &amp; market opportunity- ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Harmoney Corp Limited (ASX:HMY) CEO & Managing Director David Stevens talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s direct-to-consumer lending model, its technology-driven competitive advantage, and strong financial outlook.

Stevens explained that Harmoney operates as a fully online lender across Australia and New Zealand, offering personal loans without branches or intermediaries. This model allows the company to maintain a direct relationship with customers and improve efficiency over time. Loan sizes typically range from $2,000 to $100,000, with customers borrowing for purposes such as home renovations, travel, or vehicle upgrades.

A key differentiator is Harmoney’s proprietary technology platform, rebuilt in recent years to enhance scalability and decision-making. Stevens said, “we've been using machine learning, which is a form of AI, for 12 years,” highlighting the company’s long-standing focus on data-driven lending. The integration of AI enables more accurate assessment of customer information and improves approval rates by reducing application errors.

Despite ongoing cost-of-living pressures, Harmoney continues to operate within strict responsible lending regulations in both Australia and New Zealand, ensuring customers can service their loans sustainably.

From an investor perspective, Stevens pointed to strong financial metrics, including upgraded guidance of $13 million in cash NPAT and a 31% return on equity. With less than 1% market share in a $150 billion market, the company sees significant growth potential.

      <title>LGI: Turning landfill gas into clean energy - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[LGI Limited (ASX:LGI) CEO Jarryd Doran talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about how the company is transforming landfill gas into clean energy and driving growth through expanded generation capacity.

LGI operates at the intersection of waste management and renewable energy, converting biogas from landfill into electricity and carbon abatement products. Doran explained that landfill gas, produced as waste breaks down, can be harnessed to generate electricity, reduce emissions, and manage environmental impacts such as odour.

He described the process as relatively straightforward, noting that “we can turn that into electricity… and we can also create carbon abatement opportunities as well.” The company installs infrastructure to extract and process gas, either using it for power generation or flaring it to reduce methane emissions.

Doran highlighted the importance of long-term partnerships with landfill owners, with contracts often spanning 12 to 25 years. These collaborations require careful planning and alignment to ensure efficient site operations and optimal outcomes.

Looking ahead, LGI is focused on scaling its operations. The company reported a strong first half driven by increased generation capacity, high asset utilisation, and reliable performance. With a strengthened balance sheet, LGI is targeting a fourfold increase in capacity and expects continued growth over the next few years.

Doran also pointed to emerging technologies that could further enhance the value of landfill gas, including conversion into natural gas alternatives or transport fuels.

      <title>Carma&apos;s growth strategy in $118B used car market - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Carma Limited (ASX:CMA) co-founder & chief commercial officer Yosuke Hall talked with Proactive about the company’s rapid growth and its mission to transform Australia’s used car market.

Hall explained that Carma is targeting a significant opportunity, noting the Australian used car market is worth an estimated "$118 billion," far exceeding the new car market. He highlighted persistent pain points for consumers, including trust, pricing uncertainty and inefficiencies, stating that the experience of buying or selling a used car “hasn’t changed in many, many years.”

Carma addresses these challenges through a technology-led, full-stack digital platform designed to simplify transactions and build trust. Hall pointed to strong operational momentum, with retail unit deliveries increasing 55% year-on-year. A key growth driver has been the company’s “sell to Carma” channel, where customers sell vehicles directly to the business, delivering both improved customer experience and stronger margins.

In addition, Carma has enhanced efficiency through a major upgrade to its reconditioning facility, consolidating operations into a single 35,000 square metre site and implementing lean manufacturing principles. Hall said this has significantly reduced costs while increasing throughput.

Looking ahead, the company is focused on expanding its footprint beyond New South Wales and scaling toward becoming a national brand. Hall also noted the resilience of the used car market, which historically remains stable even during economic uncertainty.

      <itunes:summary>Carma Limited (ASX:CMA) co-founder &amp; chief commercial officer Yosuke Hall talked with Proactive about the company’s rapid growth and its mission to transform Australia’s used car market.

Hall explained that Carma is targeting a significant opportunity, noting the Australian used car market is worth an estimated &quot;$118 billion,&quot; far exceeding the new car market. He highlighted persistent pain points for consumers, including trust, pricing uncertainty and inefficiencies, stating that the experience of buying or selling a used car “hasn’t changed in many, many years.”

Carma addresses these challenges through a technology-led, full-stack digital platform designed to simplify transactions and build trust. Hall pointed to strong operational momentum, with retail unit deliveries increasing 55% year-on-year. A key growth driver has been the company’s “sell to Carma” channel, where customers sell vehicles directly to the business, delivering both improved customer experience and stronger margins.

In addition, Carma has enhanced efficiency through a major upgrade to its reconditioning facility, consolidating operations into a single 35,000 square metre site and implementing lean manufacturing principles. Hall said this has significantly reduced costs while increasing throughput.

Looking ahead, the company is focused on expanding its footprint beyond New South Wales and scaling toward becoming a national brand. Hall also noted the resilience of the used car market, which historically remains stable even during economic uncertainty.

      <title>MyState CEO on merger synergies &amp; expansion plans - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[MyState Limited (ASX:MYS) CEO & managing director Brett Morgan talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s differentiated banking model, growth strategy, and the benefits of its recent merger.

Morgan outlined how MyState operates as a diversified financial services group, spanning retail banking, equipment finance, and wealth management. The company has strengthened its position through a merger that expanded geographic reach and scale, creating opportunities for efficiency gains and shareholder value. He said the integration is expected to deliver “20 to 25 million pretax over three years” in synergies.

A key focus for MyState is customer service, which Morgan identified as a major competitive advantage against larger banks. With a net promoter score above 65, the company prioritises fast decision-making, Australia-based service teams, and efficient operations. Morgan explained: “What’s great customer service is if I want to buy a home, I get a decision as quickly as I possibly can.”

The company is also investing in future growth through a new origination system, brand rollout, and a decision on a core banking platform. Alongside this, MyState aims to accelerate its higher-returning segments, including equipment finance and wealth management.

From an investment perspective, Morgan highlighted strong fundamentals, including double-digit EPS accretion, a dividend yield of around 5% fully franked, and a focus on continued expansion. He described the business as “a profitable and proven” operation with a compelling outlook.

      <title>FleetPartners unlocks new market with acquisition - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[FleetPartners Group Limited (ASX:FPR) CEO & managing director Damien Berrell talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s operations, market opportunity and growth strategy across Australia and New Zealand.

Berrell explained that FleetPartners has been operating for four decades, providing vehicle leasing, fleet management and salary packaging solutions to corporates, SMEs, governments and employees. He highlighted the essential role the company plays in supporting economic activity, noting that its vehicles are “revenue-generating assets for our customers” and critical to transporting goods, equipment and services.

The discussion outlined the scale of the opportunity across multiple segments. Large fleets remain underpenetrated, with only around 24% of the market currently using fleet providers, representing approximately $138 billion worth of vehicles. Small fleets present an even bigger growth opportunity, with just 5% penetration across a similarly sized $125 billion market. Berrell also pointed to strong long-term industry growth, typically tracking at around 4% in line with GDP.

He also addressed external factors such as fuel costs, explaining that while FleetPartners processes significant fuel volumes, it is not directly exposed to price increases. Instead, the company supports customers with strategies to improve efficiency.

A key milestone discussed was the acquisition of a salary packaging capability, which Berrell said has “opened up a new part of the market that we can go after.”

From an investor perspective, Berrell emphasised the company’s “highly recurring and stable” revenue model, delivering predictable cash flows and consistent capital returns.

      <title>Bell Financial strategy shift boosts earnings stability - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bell Financial Group Limited (ASX:BFG) co-CEO Arnie Selvarajah talked with Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference about the company’s diversified wealth management model and how it is positioning for sustainable growth through shifting revenue streams.

Selvarajah explained that the business operates across two key segments: a traditional markets division and a growing platforms division. The markets segment includes stockbroking, corporate finance, and advisory services for private, institutional, and corporate clients, while the platforms division focuses on recurring revenue streams through online trading, lending, and wealth platforms.

A major strategic focus has been transitioning toward more predictable earnings. Selvarajah said: “We started a program maybe five to six years ago of shifting the business away from just transactional revenue… and having more of a balance to recurring and repeatable revenue.” This shift has contributed to strong financial performance, including revenue of $299 million and return on equity exceeding 20%.

He highlighted that recurring revenue provides a stable earnings base, while the markets division offers upside during favourable conditions. Despite current market volatility, Selvarajah noted that trading activity remains strong and continues to present opportunities for investors.

Selvarajah also pointed to significant value emerging in the small and mid-cap sector, describing it as an area where investors can uncover opportunities amid pricing dislocations.

      <title>Beforepay CEO on AI lending and growth strategy - ASX SMIDcaps Conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Beforepay Group Limited (ASX:B4P) CEO Jamie Twiss talked with Proactive about the company’s growth trajectory, AI-driven lending model, and expanding product suite at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference.

Beforepay is an Australian fintech focused on delivering responsible financial solutions to consumers underserved by traditional lenders. Twiss explained that the company’s core business issues around 40,000 small loans per week, averaging approximately $420, designed as short-term “tide you over” solutions. Alongside this, its Carrington Labs division monetises proprietary AI and data-driven credit risk technology with enterprise clients, primarily in North America.
A key theme of the discussion was the growing role of artificial intelligence in lending. Twiss noted: “We can calculate hundreds of different variables, which give a much sharper view of the customer… credit worthiness,” highlighting how Beforepay’s approach goes beyond traditional credit scoring methods. This capability enables the company to assess risk more precisely and expand access to credit.

Financial performance was another highlight, with strong growth in loan volumes and improving credit outcomes. The company reported annualised advances approaching $1 billion and net default rates just above 1%, contributing to a $4.2 million profit after tax for the half.

Twiss also outlined future growth drivers, including scaling its personal loan product and expanding Carrington Labs internationally, positioning Beforepay as both a profitable fintech and a technology provider.

      <itunes:summary>Beforepay Group Limited (ASX:B4P) CEO Jamie Twiss talked with Proactive about the company’s growth trajectory, AI-driven lending model, and expanding product suite at the ASX Small and Mid-Caps Conference.

Beforepay is an Australian fintech focused on delivering responsible financial solutions to consumers underserved by traditional lenders. Twiss explained that the company’s core business issues around 40,000 small loans per week, averaging approximately $420, designed as short-term “tide you over” solutions. Alongside this, its Carrington Labs division monetises proprietary AI and data-driven credit risk technology with enterprise clients, primarily in North America.
A key theme of the discussion was the growing role of artificial intelligence in lending. Twiss noted: “We can calculate hundreds of different variables, which give a much sharper view of the customer… credit worthiness,” highlighting how Beforepay’s approach goes beyond traditional credit scoring methods. This capability enables the company to assess risk more precisely and expand access to credit.

Financial performance was another highlight, with strong growth in loan volumes and improving credit outcomes. The company reported annualised advances approaching $1 billion and net default rates just above 1%, contributing to a $4.2 million profit after tax for the half.

Twiss also outlined future growth drivers, including scaling its personal loan product and expanding Carrington Labs internationally, positioning Beforepay as both a profitable fintech and a technology provider.

      <title>Arrow Exploration reports reserve growth, advances Mateguafa development</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arrow Exploration CEO Marshall Abbott joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an operational update and share results from the company’s 2025 year-end reserves evaluation conducted by Boury Global Energy Consultants.

The report highlights steady operational performance, with a significant portion of Arrow’s annual production successfully replaced through its 2025 drilling campaign. Management noted that the evaluation incorporates conservative oil price assumptions, which impact both valuation metrics and reserves classification.

A key factor in the reserves outlook is the status of the Tapir block contract in Colombia. The 1P reserves assume the contract expires in May 2028, while 2P and 3P reserves reflect the potential granting of one and two additional five-year extension periods, respectively. Arrow said it continues to engage with regulators and remains confident that these extensions will be approved.

Operationally, continued success at the Mateguafa Attic field is driving both production and reserve growth. The recently drilled Mateguafa 11 (M-11) well reached a total measured depth of 11,455 feet and encountered oil-bearing sands in the C7 and C9 Carbonera formations. The well intersected 18 feet of net pay in the C7 zone and 30 feet in the C9 zone.

The company plans to perforate and initially produce from the C7 formation, with first production expected in the coming weeks. Notably, M-11 encountered these zones at structurally higher positions than previous wells, extending the known Mateguafa Attic structure to the south and opening additional development opportunities.

Building on this success, Arrow plans to drill a horizontal development well, M-12Hz, targeting the C9 formation, with spudding expected by the end of March. Following this, the drilling rig will move to the Icaco pad to test the Icaco 1 exploration well.

Arrow reported current corporate production of approximately 5,325 barrels of oil equivalent per day, with further increases anticipated as M-11 comes online. Overall, the company sees continued upside across its Colombian asset base, supported by ongoing drilling success, expanding resource potential, and positive discussions regarding the Tapir license

      <title>Phunware reports Q4 growth, expands AI hospitality platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Phunware Inc. CEO Jeremy Krol joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2025, highlighting momentum in its software segment despite broader market headwinds.

Phunware reported a slight year-over-year revenue decline of approximately $0.6 million from 2024 to 2025, primarily due to a softer advertising market. However, this was offset by growth in its software business, which continues to be a key strategic focus.

In the fourth quarter, the company delivered strong improvement, with net revenue rising 33% to $0.8 million compared to $0.6 million in Q4 2024. Management noted that late 2025 and early 2026 performance reflects the company’s ongoing evolution toward advanced mobile software solutions, particularly within the multi-billion-dollar hospitality sector.

As part of this strategy, Phunware has introduced two new hospitality-focused product tiers. The Luxury Engagement tier is tailored for premium hospitality brands, offering highly personalized digital guest experiences supported by advanced wayfinding capabilities. The platform acts as an immersive, branded companion throughout a guest’s stay, enhancing discovery and reinforcing brand identity.

The Enriched Experience tier targets full-service independent properties, delivering curated digital touchpoints that promote amenities, events, and services while enabling more dynamic guest interaction. The company believes both offerings will deepen customer engagement and unlock new monetization opportunities for operators.

Krol added that Phunware is scaling its sales and marketing efforts, including hiring additional personnel to accelerate adoption of its platform, including its AI Concierge and future AI-enabled capabilities.
Financially, the company remains well-capitalized, with approximately $100 million in cash and cash equivalents at year-end. This provides flexibility to invest in product development, intellectual property, sales expansion, and both organic and inorganic growth initiatives as it continues to build out its AI-driven mobile software ecosystem.

      <title>PreveCeutical advances drug delivery tech with Sol-Gel platform, eyes multi-asset spinouts</title>
      <description><![CDATA[PreveCeutical Medical Chairman Stephen Van Deventer joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s strategic evolution into a multi-asset business and its progress in advancing innovative drug delivery technologies.

Van Deventer highlighted that PreveCeutical has spent the past decade developing four research programs, all of which have now reached proof-of-concept. The company is shifting to a model where these assets are spun out as standalone entities, enabling more focused development, specialized funding, and strategic partnerships.

A central innovation is the company’s Sol-Gel platform, a nasal drug delivery system designed to improve treatment efficiency. Van Deventer explained, “When it hits the top part of your nasal cavity, it gels instantaneously and it can sit there for up to seven days and time release any type of drugs… bypassing the blood-brain barrier.” This method allows for direct nose-to-brain delivery, potentially lowering dosage requirements and minimizing systemic side effects.

PreveCeutical has already spun out BioGene Therapeutics, which is developing RNA-based therapies targeting obesity and diabetes. The company is also advancing a non-addictive pain therapy and exploring additional spinouts, contingent on funding.

A recent patent filing for dopamine delivery directly into the brain represents another breakthrough, with potential applications for Parkinson’s disease and broader neurological and psychiatric conditions.
Looking ahead, PreveCeutical is preparing to transition from preclinical development to clinical stages, seeking potential partnerships and non-dilutive funding opportunities to accelerate its programs and expand the impact of its technology.

      <title>Fox Tungsten secures C$11.1M bought deal to advance BC project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fox Tungsten CEO Steve Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has entered into a “bought deal” private placement agreement for gross proceeds of C$11,086,500.

The financing is being led by Stifel Nicolaus Canada Inc. as co-lead underwriter, alongside PowerOne Capital Markets Limited. The agreement also includes an over-allotment option allowing underwriters to sell up to an additional C$1.65 million in securities under the same terms, exercisable in whole or in part prior to closing.

Proceeds from the financing will be used to advance exploration at the company’s flagship Fox Tungsten Project, as well as support other exploration initiatives, working capital, and general corporate purposes.
Located in British Columbia, the Fox Tungsten Project is considered one of the highest-grade tungsten resources globally and benefits from strong infrastructure access, including nearby roads and power. The project is 100%-owned and is strategically positioned to help address growing Western demand for secure tungsten supply.

Gray noted that the company’s successful 2025 drill program extended mineralization at the RC and BN zones, and an expanded exploration campaign is planned for 2026. The upcoming program is expected to further grow the resource base and support the development of a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

With this financing in place, Fox Tungsten aims to accelerate its exploration momentum and strengthen its position as a key player in the critical minerals sector.

      <title>Algernon Health to launch first U.S. brain PET clinic in Florida</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Algernon Health CEO Christopher Moreau joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company will open its inaugural brain PET scanning clinic at the HCA Florida University Medical Office Building, located on the campus of HCA Florida University Hospital.

The clinic will be operated by Algernon USA LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary, which has signed a five-year lease with an option to renew for an additional five years. The company also plans to expand with multiple clinics across the United States as part of a broader rollout strategy.

Moreau highlighted that the facility will be the first of its kind in the U.S. dedicated to brain-specific PET imaging. The clinic will focus on early detection and diagnosis of neurological conditions including Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, epilepsy, neuro-oncology indications, and movement disorders such as Parkinson’s disease.

The site will feature the CareMiBrain system, an FDA-cleared standalone PET scanner designed specifically for brain imaging. Unlike traditional systems, it does not require an integrated CT component, enabling high-quality imaging while reducing patient radiation exposure by approximately 25%.

Importantly, brain PET scans used for beta-amyloid plaque detection are covered by Medicare, Medicaid, and private insurance for patients aged 65 and older. This is particularly relevant given the emergence of new Alzheimer’s treatments such as Leqembi and Kisunla, both of which require confirmation of amyloid plaque presence—via PET scan or spinal tap—before patients can begin therapy. These developments are helping drive rapid growth in the Alzheimer’s diagnostics and treatment market, creating a significant opportunity for specialized brain imaging services.

Algernon plans to work closely with neurologists, geriatricians, and primary care providers to build referral networks, while also targeting the 50+ population directly to raise awareness around early detection. The company emphasized that beta-amyloid plaques can develop 15 to 20 years before symptoms appear, reinforcing the value of early screening through cognitive testing, blood biomarkers, and advanced imaging.

      <title>Itaconix CEO on 61% revenue surge to $10.5M,  EBITDA path &amp; market expansion</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Itaconix PLC (AIM:ITX, OTCQB:ITXXF, FRA:18G0) CEO John Shaw talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong financial performance and accelerating commercial momentum, as revenues rose 61% in 2025 to reach $10.5 million.

Shaw explained that the growth has been driven by increasing adoption of the company’s plant-based ingredients used in detergents, particularly in applications for dishwashing and fabric care. He noted that Itaconix has spent years validating its technology, adding: “We’ve absolutely known about it for 8 to 10 years… but putting new ingredients into use takes time, persistence.”

The company is now seeing that persistence translate into commercial success, with more brands adopting its formulations and expanding usage across multiple markets. Shaw highlighted significant progress against key performance indicators, including over 100% growth in EMEA revenues and renewed traction in North America, where multiple new detergent formulations are entering production.

Looking ahead, Itaconix is targeting revenues in the $25 million to $30 million range within the next three to five years, supported by a growing customer pipeline and increased production volumes. The company is also advancing new opportunities through its BIO*Asterix product line and specialty monomers.

Shaw emphasised the resilience of Itaconix’s supply chain, which is designed around plant-based chemistry and less exposed to fossil fuel volatility. This positioning, he said, provides stability amid global uncertainties while supporting long-term growth.

      <title>Livium CEO on recycling demand “Hockey Stick”</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Livium Limited CEO & Managing Director Simon Linge talked with Kerry Stevenson from Proactive at the Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s expanding role in battery recycling and its growth outlook within the renewable energy sector.

Linge explained that Livium Limited operates across the battery value chain, with its core business focused on lithium-ion battery recycling through its Envirostream division. The company is also expanding into adjacent recycling markets, including solar panels and permanent magnets, driven by client demand and the broader shift toward renewable energy.

He highlighted that Livium Limited works with major global clients such as BYD, Hyundai, Volvo Energy and LG Energy Solution, processing end-of-life batteries to recover valuable materials. The company’s business model is already proven, generating revenue through service fees while also sharing in the value of recovered materials.

A key theme from the discussion was the strong growth outlook for the sector. Linge noted, “over the next five years, we see a fivefold increase in volumes,” pointing to a significant demand curve driven by energy storage and electric mobility adoption.

The company is also progressing a joint venture with Mineral Resources to improve lithium recovery yields in mining, offering additional upside without requiring further capital investment from Livium Limited.

With supportive regulation, strong demand growth and opportunities for strategic partnerships and M&A, Livium Limited is positioning itself as a leader in Australia’s battery recycling industry.

The company is also progressing a joint venture with Mineral Resources to improve lithium recovery yields in mining, offering additional upside without requiring further capital investment from Livium Limited.

With supportive regulation, strong demand growth and opportunities for strategic partnerships and M&amp;A, Livium Limited is positioning itself as a leader in Australia’s battery recycling industry.

      <itunes:subtitle>Livium Limited CEO &amp; Managing Director Simon Linge talked with Kerry Stevenson from Proactive at the Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s expanding role in battery recycling and its growth outlook within the renewable energy sector.

Linge explained that Livium Limited operates across the battery value chain, with its core business focused on lithium-ion battery recycling through its Envirostream division. The company is also expanding into adjacent recycling markets, including solar panels and permanent magnets, driven by client demand and the broader shift toward renewable energy.

He highlighted that Livium Limited works with major global clients such as BYD, Hyundai, Volvo Energy and LG Energy Solution, processing end-of-life batteries to recover valuable materials. The company’s business model is already proven, generating revenue through service fees while also sharing in the value of recovered materials.

      <title>Nyrada Phase 2 trial targets heart attack damage</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nyrada Inc CEO & Managing Director James Bonnar talked with Kerry Stevenson from Proactive at the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s upcoming Phase 2 clinical trial for its lead drug candidate, Zoltrip, and the broader growth outlook for the business.

Bonnar explained that the company is preparing to initiate a Phase 2 study in Australia targeting patients who have suffered a severe heart attack known as STEMI. The trial will recruit 100 patients across seven sites, with the primary goal of assessing safety while also identifying early signs of efficacy. As Bonnar stated, “we’re hoping to show in this study that the drug is, first of all, safe… but also that the drug is efficacious.”

The drug is being developed as an adjunct therapy to standard treatments such as angioplasty, addressing the problem of reperfusion injury — a condition that can worsen heart damage when blood flow is restored. Nyrada is targeting a significant global market, with around 4 million angioplasty procedures performed annually.

Importantly, Bonnar highlighted that there are currently no approved treatments for reperfusion injury, positioning Zoltrip as a potential first-in-class therapy. The drug targets TRP ion channels, a novel biological pathway with limited competition in clinical development.

Beyond cardiac applications, Nyrada has also demonstrated promising results in traumatic brain injury and ischemic stroke, suggesting broader potential across multiple indications. Bonnar emphasised that the company expects strong news flow in the year ahead as trials progress and additional studies expand the drug’s application.

      <title>West Wits Mining Gold Resource Hits 7.2Moz</title>
      <description><![CDATA[West Wits Mining Limited Non-Executive Director Warwick Grigor talked with Kerry Stevenson from Proactive the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s rapidly expanding gold resource base and near-term production outlook in South Africa.

Grigor highlighted a significant upgrade to the company’s resource, noting that it has grown to 7.2 million ounces, with further upside potential at depth. He explained that “we've just increased our resource base by 2,000,000oz… we've gone from a bit over 5 to 7.2 million ounces,” adding that deeper exploration could potentially double that figure.

The interview also focused on the scale of the Witwatersrand Basin, one of the world’s most prolific gold regions, and how the market may be underappreciating the magnitude of West Wits Mining Limited’s asset base. Grigor pointed out that historical production in the region underscores the project’s long-term potential.

Looking ahead, West Wits Mining Limited is targeting its first gold pour in the near term and aims to build toward 70,000 ounces of annual production, with a longer-term aspiration of reaching 200,000 ounces per annum, subject to further studies. Grigor also outlined strong projected economics, noting the potential for substantial EBITDA generation at current gold prices.

He addressed concerns around operating in South Africa, stating that infrastructure challenges such as power supply have improved, while the country remains a highly developed and stable mining jurisdiction.

      <title>Racura Oncology: Lung Cancer trial targets resistance</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Racura Oncology CEO & Managing Director Dr Daniel Tillett talked with Kerry Stevenson from Proactive at the the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s expanding clinical pipeline and its strategy to tackle some of the biggest challenges in cancer treatment.

Dr Tillett outlined three concurrent clinical programs currently underway, highlighting Racura’s diversified approach. The first program focuses on protecting the heart in patients undergoing chemotherapy using AC220, which has been progressing steadily for nearly a year. The second, the HARNESS-1 trial in lung cancer, is designed to address resistance to existing therapies by combining Racura’s drug with osimertinib, a widely used treatment.

As Dr Tillett explained, “it works really well for about 18 months, and then it stops working,” referring to osimertinib, underscoring the urgent need to extend treatment effectiveness. Racura aims to prevent this resistance, potentially improving patient outcomes and survival.

The company is also preparing to launch a Phase 3 trial in acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), building on earlier-stage success. This program is expected to be relatively cost-effective and streamlined due to its orphan indication status.

Importantly, the HARNESS-1 trial could deliver results quickly, with early data anticipated within months. Dr Tillett noted that Racura expects to have “a good idea whether this is working or not” by the end of the year, offering investors near-term catalysts.

With multiple trials progressing simultaneously, Racura is positioned to generate consistent news flow while targeting significant market opportunities in oncology.

      <title>Intelligent Monitoring growth strategy &amp; market opportunity</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Intelligent Monitoring Group Ltd Managing Director Dennison Hambling talked with Kerry Stevenson from Proactive following his appearance at the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s transformation, growth strategy and the evolving electronic security market following his presentation at the Sydney Small to Mid-Cap Conference.

Hambling outlined how the company has undergone a significant turnaround in recent years, repositioning itself into what he described as a “very stable” and increasingly sizeable business. He explained that the journey included the acquisition of ADT in 2023 and a broader corporate recovery effort that has helped establish Intelligent Monitoring Group as a leading player in the Australasian electronic security sector.

The discussion highlighted how advances in technology are reshaping the security monitoring industry. Hambling noted that modern camera-based systems are enabling a proactive approach to crime prevention, stating that the company has “apprehended nearly 50 criminals in the last 12 months with the police using these new camera services.”

He also emphasised the significant market opportunity ahead, pointing to low industry penetration despite strong demand drivers. With over 200,000 customers and a fragmented market of more than 2,000 providers, the company sees a clear pathway to scale and consolidation.

From an investment perspective, Hambling suggested the company remains undervalued relative to its profitability and growth potential, while stressing that execution will be key to building market confidence.

      <itunes:subtitle>Intelligent Monitoring Group Ltd Managing Director Dennison Hambling talked with Kerry Stevenson from Proactive following his appearance at the ASX Small and Mid-Cap Conference about the company’s transformation, growth strategy and the evolving electronic security market following his presentation at the Sydney Small to Mid-Cap Conference.

Hambling outlined how the company has undergone a significant turnaround in recent years, repositioning itself into what he described as a “very stable” and increasingly sizeable business. He explained that the journey included the acquisition of ADT in 2023 and a broader corporate recovery effort that has helped establish Intelligent Monitoring Group as a leading player in the Australasian electronic security sector.

The discussion highlighted how advances in technology are reshaping the security monitoring industry. Hambling noted that modern camera-based systems are enabling a proactive approach to crime prevention, stating that the company has “apprehended nearly 50 criminals in the last 12 months with the police using these new camera services.”

He also emphasised the significant market opportunity ahead, pointing to low industry penetration despite strong demand drivers. With over 200,000 customers and a fragmented market of more than 2,000 providers, the company sees a clear pathway to scale and consolidation.

From an investment perspective, Hambling suggested the company remains undervalued relative to its profitability and growth potential, while stressing that execution will be key to building market confidence.

      <title>Ocean Power ships first PowerBuoy for U.S. Coast Guard contract</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ocean Power Technologies CEO Philipp Stratmann joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the shipment of the first PowerBuoy® system under its previously awarded $6.5 million contract with the United States Department of Homeland Security.

The system will support maritime domain awareness operations for the United States Coast Guard and marks a key milestone as the program transitions from development and integration into active deployment.

Stratmann explained that this initial shipment is part of a broader network of PowerBuoy® systems that will be deployed off the coast of California. These systems are designed to provide persistent, autonomous offshore surveillance, enhancing situational awareness and supporting critical security missions.

Integration with systems from Anduril Industries is progressing in parallel, positioning the deployment within a next-generation maritime defense and sensing architecture.
Final site preparations and operational readiness procedures are currently underw
ay, with full deployment expected to follow shortly. Once installed, the PowerBuoy® network will contribute to strengthened coastal and offshore monitoring capabilities as part of broader DHS security initiatives.

Ocean Power Technologies continues to collaborate closely with government partners and technology providers to deliver scalable, autonomous maritime solutions aimed at improving surveillance, security, and operational effectiveness in challenging ocean environments.

      <title>Rome Resources CEO on &apos;game-changer&apos; drill results</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest drilling results from the Kalayi project, highlighting a significant increase in intercept widths that could materially impact the project's scale and future resource potential.

Barrett explained that the latest drill hole represents the widest intercept recorded to date, nearly doubling previous results and sitting beneath earlier, narrower high-grade zones. This development supports the view that the system may expand considerably at depth. He noted that similar geological patterns have been observed elsewhere, stating that “there is a sudden increase in the widths… and I think we seem to have just hit that point with this hole.”

The Kalayi system remains open in multiple directions, including at depth and դեպի the southeast, suggesting further upside potential. While Barrett acknowledged that the project may not yet rival the scale of major regional deposits, he indicated it is progressing toward that level.

The discussion also addressed the use of XRF results, which Barrett described as indicative but generally reliable within a reasonable range of variance. Multiple measurement techniques are being applied to improve confidence ahead of laboratory assay results.

Looking ahead, investors can expect assay results over the coming months, followed by a resource update. Barrett suggested that increasing widths compared to earlier shallow drilling “could well be quite a game changer in terms of the volumes.”

      <title>MP Evans CEO: Record profits, zero debt and more acquisitions on the horizon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[MP Evans Group PLC (AIM:MPE) chief executive Matthew Coulson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s record-breaking 2025 performance, highlighting strong pricing, increased production, and continued expansion across its portfolio.

Coulson explained that the company benefited from higher crude palm oil prices, with an average of $866 per tonne, alongside increased harvesting volumes and an improved crop mix. These factors contributed to a significant rise in profitability, with gross profit reaching $142.2 million and earnings per share of 1.61.3 pence.

He also outlined the company’s ongoing expansion strategy, noting the acquisition of 3,000 additional hectares in East Kalimantan, expanding the Bumi Mas project to 12,000 hectares. Further planting activity in Kota Bangun and Musi Rawas brought the total planted area to just under 71,000 hectares, reinforcing MP Evans’ long-term growth ambitions.

Sustainability remains a core focus. Coulson stated, “we’re also committed to being a sustainable business… one of our core strategic priorities,” pointing to certified sustainable output rising to 275,000 tonnes and improved external ESG recognition, including a ZSL SPOTT rating above 90%.

Looking ahead, Coulson highlighted a strong start to 2026, supported by continued robust pricing and a debt-free balance sheet. He emphasised that the company is actively assessing further acquisition opportunities to drive future growth and shareholder value.

      <title>Chesnara CEO on FY 25 results, deal integration, M&amp;A and outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Chesnara PLC (LSE:CSN) CEO Steve Murray talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s transformational progress following two major acquisitions and what investors can expect next.

Murray explained how these deals significantly increase the group’s scale, with a “material increase in the size of the balance sheet” and around £1 billion in expected lifetime cash flows. He highlighted that this strengthens long-term capital generation and supports Chesnara’s dividend strategy.

The discussion also covered the integration process following the HSBC Life (UK) deal, including data quality, system migration, and onboarding over 200 employees. Murray noted that a dedicated internal and external team is managing the process, supported by a modern platform partnership with SS&C, adding that the company is “confident that we should be able to deliver the required work this year.”

Looking ahead, Chesnara is prioritising integration in the near term but remains active in evaluating M&A opportunities. Murray pointed out that the company’s strong solvency position and available liquidity could support another transaction of similar size to the Scottish Widows Europe deal.

Despite ongoing market volatility, Murray emphasised the resilience of Chesnara’s business model, stating that “there’s nothing that worries us, particularly from a sort of macro perspective,” thanks to a prudent asset mix and surplus capital.

Investors are encouraged to monitor operating capital generation, solvency strength, and growth in own funds as key indicators of performance, alongside continued M&A activity.

Murray explained how these deals significantly increase the group’s scale, with a “material increase in the size of the balance sheet” and around £1 billion in expected lifetime cash flows. He highlighted that this strengthens long-term capital generation and supports Chesnara’s dividend strategy.

The discussion also covered the integration process following the HSBC Life (UK) deal, including data quality, system migration, and onboarding over 200 employees. Murray noted that a dedicated internal and external team is managing the process, supported by a modern platform partnership with SS&amp;C, adding that the company is “confident that we should be able to deliver the required work this year.”

Looking ahead, Chesnara is prioritising integration in the near term but remains active in evaluating M&amp;A opportunities. Murray pointed out that the company’s strong solvency position and available liquidity could support another transaction of similar size to the Scottish Widows Europe deal.

Despite ongoing market volatility, Murray emphasised the resilience of Chesnara’s business model, stating that “there’s nothing that worries us, particularly from a sort of macro perspective,” thanks to a prudent asset mix and surplus capital.

Investors are encouraged to monitor operating capital generation, solvency strength, and growth in own funds as key indicators of performance, alongside continued M&amp;A activity.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain: AI Oracle test on Antminer S9 explained</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest progress in the company’s AI Oracle technology and its transition from hardware to software implementation in Bitcoin mining.

Gardin explained that the company initially developed the AI Oracle as a hardware-based solution, but later pivoted to running it directly on the operating system of mining rigs. This shift allowed greater flexibility, although it introduced technical challenges due to reduced access to ASIC-level data. Despite this, he noted that the software approach has already delivered “very good results.”

A key milestone is the successful deployment of the AI Oracle on a Bitmain Antminer S9, an older but accessible machine chosen because it is the last model with fully available source code. Gardin said, “we can show on a commercial machine, outdated of course, but we can show that it works,” highlighting the strategic importance of demonstrating real-world performance to potential partners.

The company faced obstacles in accessing proprietary software from manufacturers of newer mining rigs such as the S19 and S21. As a result, it built an independent system to validate its technology. This proof-of-concept is expected to strengthen its position in negotiations with hardware partners and large-scale miners.

Gardin also outlined that the company is currently in a data collection phase, training neural networks to understand ASIC behaviour before moving to live testing. Results from these commercial tests are expected within weeks.

      <title>Caledonia Mining CEO on strong 2025 results, Bilboes progress and positive Zimbabwe engagement</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Caledonia Mining Corporation PLC (AIM:CMCL, NYSE-A:CMCL, VFEX:CMCL) chief executive Mark Learmonth talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong 2025 financial results and the next steps for its key growth projects, including Bilboes and Blanket.

Learmonth highlighted a “very, very strong year financially,” with revenue rising 46%, driven largely by higher gold prices, while production remained stable. Gross profit increased 78% to nearly $140 million, EBITDA doubled to $125 million, and profit after tax rose significantly to $67 million. He emphasised that these results reflect both favourable market conditions and consistent operational performance.

Looking ahead, Caledonia Mining is focused on advancing the Bilboes project into development. Learmonth explained that securing liquidity is critical to maintaining momentum, noting the importance of funding to “start placing the long lead-time orders and don’t end up waiting.” The company recently secured $130 million through a convertible bond and is targeting an additional $150 million in local bank funding to support early-stage development activities.

At the Blanket mine, the company is pursuing a dual strategy of cost reduction and scoping out potential areas where production might be increased to improve efficiency over time. Learmonth indicated that while some initiatives may take time to materialise, they are key to long-term operational improvement.

He also pointed to improving investor sentiment toward Zimbabwe, supported by constructive government engagement and growing interest from international investors.

      <title>Foresight Solar Fund manager on FY25 performance, strategy, dividends &amp; pipeline growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Foresight Solar Fund Ltd's (LSE:FSFL) fund manager, Toby Virno, talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 2025 full-year results, highlighting strong operational performance and a continued focus on dividend sustainability and growth strategy.

Virno explained that higher-than-expected electricity production in the UK helped offset weaker output in Spain and Australia, supporting the fund’s financial performance. He noted that the company successfully achieved its dividend cover target of 1.3 times for the year, reinforcing confidence in its income strategy. 
“We set ourselves a dividend cover target of 1.3 times, and we have hit that target as of the year-end, which we're very pleased about,” he said.

The discussion also addressed a previously disclosed tax impact, which Virno confirmed has now been resolved and will not affect future dividend cover. He emphasised that the balance sheet remains robust, with gearing at 41.2%, and highlighted the company’s proactive approach to managing power price volatility by locking in favourable rates.

Looking ahead, Foresight Solar is targeting a 1.1 times dividend cover for 2026 while maintaining its dividend policy. Virno also pointed to a strong development and construction pipeline, alongside supportive regulatory developments in the UK, as key drivers for future growth.

He added that “the portfolio continues to operate to a really high standard, and that steadily generates cash to pay our dividend,” underlining the stability of the fund’s core assets.

      <title>Giyani Metals to advance DFS for K.Hill project with new IDC funding</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Giyani Metals Corp (TSX-V:EMM, OTC:CATPF, FRA:KT9) interim executive chair Nigel Robinson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about recent additional funding secured from the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) and what it means for the company’s development plans.

Robinson explained that the IDC is a key stakeholder, having invested approximately $23 million as part of a broader $37 million funding package in early 2024. This latest extension of funding is being used to support further work at the company’s demonstration plant, which plays a critical role in refining process flows and improving operational understanding ahead of commercial production.

He said the funding allows the company to “extend the life of the demonstration plant, do more testing, provide more product, and also… get more knowledge about the processes that will incorporate into the actual commercial plant.” The demonstration plant is central to de-risking the project, enabling Giyani  to move beyond lab and pilot stages and validate its processes at a larger scale.

Robinson also noted that insights from the demonstration plant are feeding directly into the definitive feasibility study (DFS), which has now shifted slightly from an initial Q1 target into Q2. He emphasised that this delay is minor and reflects the integration of improved technical data.

The company is also preparing for future pre-construction funding as it moves toward a final investment decision, with ongoing discussions underway with the IDC.

      <itunes:summary>Giyani Metals Corp (TSX-V:EMM, OTC:CATPF, FRA:KT9) interim executive chair Nigel Robinson talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about recent additional funding secured from the Industrial Development Corporation (IDC) and what it means for the company’s development plans.

Robinson explained that the IDC is a key stakeholder, having invested approximately $23 million as part of a broader $37 million funding package in early 2024. This latest extension of funding is being used to support further work at the company’s demonstration plant, which plays a critical role in refining process flows and improving operational understanding ahead of commercial production.

He said the funding allows the company to “extend the life of the demonstration plant, do more testing, provide more product, and also… get more knowledge about the processes that will incorporate into the actual commercial plant.” The demonstration plant is central to de-risking the project, enabling Giyani  to move beyond lab and pilot stages and validate its processes at a larger scale.

Robinson also noted that insights from the demonstration plant are feeding directly into the definitive feasibility study (DFS), which has now shifted slightly from an initial Q1 target into Q2. He emphasised that this delay is minor and reflects the integration of improved technical data.

The company is also preparing for future pre-construction funding as it moves toward a final investment decision, with ongoing discussions underway with the IDC.

      <title>Montero Mining provides update on work at Elvira Gold project in Chile</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Montero Mining and Exploration CEO Tony Harwood joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on exploration progress at the Elvira gold project in Maricunga Gold Belt following completion of its Phase 1 program.

Harwood explained that integrated interpretation of geological, geochemical, and geophysical datasets has confirmed the presence of a district-scale high-sulphidation hydrothermal system at Elvira. The analysis has also identified multiple structurally controlled alteration centres, resistivity domains, and sulphide-bearing chargeability anomalies, all of which are considered high-priority targets for follow-up exploration and potential drilling.

The Elvira project consists of a contiguous package of mining concessions that cover the interpreted alteration footprint and key structural corridors identified through the company’s work to date. These features are considered critical indicators of a potentially significant mineralized system.

Looking ahead, Montero Mining is advancing toward the next phase of exploration. This includes finalizing an integrated geological model, continuing interpretation of geochemical and geophysical datasets, and completing high-resolution multi-element geochemical vectoring analysis.

The company is also progressing technical evaluations of priority targets to refine and rank potential drill locations. This systematic approach is designed to ensure that any future drilling program is focused on the most prospective zones identified through the Phase 1 work.

Montero Mining expects to provide further updates as its interpretation advances and as it moves closer to making decisions regarding potential drill testing at the Elvira project.

      <title>Quadrise CEO on H1 progress, MSC trial progress &amp; market outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quadrise PLC (AIM:QED) CEO Peter Borup talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest half-year results and progress across its key projects, including developments around MSAR and bioMSAR fuels.

Borup explained that over the past six months, the company has focused on advancing existing projects such as MSC, Del Coal, and its Moroccan initiative, while also working to secure feedstock to support fuel production. He highlighted efforts to accelerate innovation and bring products to market more efficiently, noting the importance of focusing on areas the company can directly control.

A key priority remains the large-scale trial with MSC and Cargill. Borup said the company is nearing resolution on the final outstanding items, stating that “it feels like we are down to two items” before progress can move forward. He added that external factors, including geopolitical changes and shifting supply chains, have contributed to delays in finalising agreements.

Discussing market conditions, Borup noted increased uncertainty driven by global events, particularly in shipping. He emphasised that while the green transition remains important, cost competitiveness is critical, adding that MSAR® offers a strong value proposition in this environment.

Looking ahead, Borup identified several near-term catalysts, including securing feedstock supply, progressing the MSC/Cargill trial, and ensuring successful fuel delivery and performance. He stressed that “we have to get the feedstock… otherwise the trial has no value,” underlining its importance to the company’s strategy.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain Technologies CEO on US patent update, strategy &amp; next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the implications of a recent US Patent Office ruling related to its AIS Ultra Boost technology and outlined the company’s next steps in the patent process.

Gardin clarified that what may appear as a “final rejection” is in fact a standard procedural step, noting that “between 30 and 50% [of applications] are granted or approved” after such outcomes. QBT now plans to respond within the required two to three-month window following internal discussions and engagement with the examiner.

The interview also covered the European Patent Office publication of its Message Schedule Arrays application, which Gardin described as a routine step confirming the patent is now officially pending across multiple jurisdictions.

Gardin detailed the company’s broader patent strategy, focusing on hardware-based innovations in Bitcoin mining. He highlighted a novel “memory-assisted” SHA-256 hashing approach, explaining that the technology introduces pre-computed data storage within ASIC chips — a departure from conventional designs where data is not retained. This approach, he said, represents “a totally new and innovative” method while also protecting key proprietary elements.

Additionally, Gardin discussed the recent installation of a mining rig at the University of Milan, noting that images were obscured due to confidentiality agreements with the ASIC manufacturer.

      <title>Powerhouse Energy tech proven after 1 year, says Longspur Capital</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Longspur Capital partner and head of research Adam Forsyth talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the firm's latest research report on Powerhouse Energy Group PLC (AIM:PHE, FRA:BT81), highlighting technology progress, commercial outlook and key project milestones following a year of operational validation.

Forsyth noted that Powerhouse Energy’s advanced thermal treatment (ATT) technology, which converts waste into syngas for hydrogen and low-carbon fuels, has now demonstrated consistent performance. He said the company’s feedstock testing unit in Wales has “run for a year and it's run to the design standards… it's given the results they were expecting,” marking a significant shift in confidence around the technology.

The discussion also focused on the importance of scaling into commercial projects. Forsyth pointed to Ballymena in Northern Ireland and Rockingham in Australia as critical next steps, noting that “having a real project, a real commercial project is the next key milestone.” Progress at Ballymena, including planning and site lease agreements, was described as tangible evidence of forward momentum.

Cost competitiveness was another major theme. Forsyth explained that while grey hydrogen can be produced cheaply at large facilities, delivery costs significantly increase the final price. He suggested Powerhouse Energy’s distributed model could deliver hydrogen at around $6 per kilo, making it competitive on a delivered basis.

Looking ahead, Forsyth outlined valuation upside driven by global deployment, while also flagging project execution and development milestones as key factors for investors to monitor over the next 12 months.

      <itunes:summary>Longspur Capital partner and head of research Adam Forsyth talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the firm&apos;s latest research report on Powerhouse Energy Group PLC (AIM:PHE, FRA:BT81), highlighting technology progress, commercial outlook and key project milestones following a year of operational validation.

Forsyth noted that Powerhouse Energy’s advanced thermal treatment (ATT) technology, which converts waste into syngas for hydrogen and low-carbon fuels, has now demonstrated consistent performance. He said the company’s feedstock testing unit in Wales has “run for a year and it&apos;s run to the design standards… it&apos;s given the results they were expecting,” marking a significant shift in confidence around the technology.

The discussion also focused on the importance of scaling into commercial projects. Forsyth pointed to Ballymena in Northern Ireland and Rockingham in Australia as critical next steps, noting that “having a real project, a real commercial project is the next key milestone.” Progress at Ballymena, including planning and site lease agreements, was described as tangible evidence of forward momentum.

Cost competitiveness was another major theme. Forsyth explained that while grey hydrogen can be produced cheaply at large facilities, delivery costs significantly increase the final price. He suggested Powerhouse Energy’s distributed model could deliver hydrogen at around $6 per kilo, making it competitive on a delivered basis.

Looking ahead, Forsyth outlined valuation upside driven by global deployment, while also flagging project execution and development milestones as key factors for investors to monitor over the next 12 months.

      <title>Electric Royalties expands portfolio, targets cash flow from clean energy metals</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Electric Royalties CEO Brendan Yurik joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s growth strategy, expanding royalty portfolio, and outlook for clean energy metals markets.

Yurik emphasized that Electric Royalties is uniquely positioned as a royalty company focused exclusively on metals critical to the global energy transition. The company has built a diversified portfolio of 43 royalties spanning North America, Europe, and Australia, targeting assets tied to electrification, energy storage, and the increasing demands of artificial intelligence infrastructure.

A key strategic shift for the company is its focus on adding cash-flowing assets. Yurik highlighted recent progress in this area, including exposure to producing operations such as the Punitaqui Mine, which provides copper and gold revenue streams. He also noted that operational improvements at existing assets—such as production increases at the Arizona Copper project—can meaningfully enhance portfolio value, effectively adding incremental royalty exposure without new acquisitions.

Looking ahead, Electric Royalties is advancing several near-term catalysts, including feasibility studies across five to six portfolio assets. These milestones are expected to support the transition toward stronger and more consistent cash flow generation in the coming years.

Yurik also pointed to long-life development projects such as the Battery Hill Project, which could deliver sustained returns over extended periods.

On the macro side, he highlighted strong demand drivers for clean energy metals, including rapid growth in artificial intelligence infrastructure and energy storage technologies. At the same time, limited capital availability in the mining sector is creating attractive opportunities for royalty companies to secure high-quality assets at favorable terms.

Overall, Electric Royalties is positioning itself to benefit from long-term structural trends while building a scalable, cash-generating portfolio aligned with the future of global energy and technology markets.

      <title>Abacus Global to acquire $53M stake in Manning &amp; Napier</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Abacus Global Management CEO Jay Jackson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire an approximately $53 million minority equity stake in Manning & Napier, a diversified investment manager with roughly $18 billion in assets under management.

Jackson explained that alongside the equity investment, the companies will establish a Strategic Alliance Agreement aimed at creating growth opportunities across three key areas: product distribution, lead generation and referrals, and joint product development. The strategic alliance is expected to be the primary value driver of the transaction, providing a framework for collaboration while allowing Manning & Napier to continue operating independently.

According to Abacus Global, the partnership represents a significant milestone in the company’s evolution from a life solutions originator into a fully integrated, longevity-focused alternative asset management platform.

Manning & Napier brings a well-established wealth advisory business with approximately 3,400 clients and more than 55 years of investment management experience. By combining this platform with Abacus Global’s LifeARC data and actuarial capabilities, the partnership is designed to strengthen the company’s integrated model linking life solutions origination with a dedicated wealth management distribution channel.

Management believes the collaboration will help accelerate growth by connecting Abacus’s life solutions origination engine with Manning & Napier’s wealth advisory network, creating new opportunities for product innovation and client engagement.

      <title>Arizona Gold &amp; Silver secures C$18M to advance Philadelphia project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arizona Gold and Silver CEO Mike Stark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has entered into a binding agreement with institutional investors Sorbie Bornholm LP and Sorbie Investments LLP for a C$18 million financing. The transaction remains subject to final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange and will not result in the creation of a new control position.

Stark noted the investment represents the largest commitment to date from Sorbie and is structured as a 22.5 million unit placement at an approximate 18% premium. A portion of the shares will also form the basis of a Sharing Agreement, designed to provide the company with additional non-dilutive upside as key milestones are achieved.

Proceeds from the financing will be used to advance exploration and development at the company’s flagship Philadelphia Gold-Silver Project in Arizona. Planned activities include expanding drilling programs led by Senior Vice President of Exploration Lex Lambeck, targeting prospective vein and stockwork systems, and supporting ongoing technical and operational progress.

The Philadelphia project is located near the historic Oatman Mining District in northwestern Arizona, a prolific region that has historically produced more than 2.5 million ounces of gold from high-grade epithermal vein systems.

Arizona Gold & Silver continues to focus on expanding mineralization along the Philadelphia vein while testing additional targets across its broader land package. Recent drilling has confirmed continuity and the potential scale of gold-silver mineralization at both shallow and deeper levels, supporting the company’s strategy to advance the project toward future development.

      <title>Revival Gold prioritizes Utah mine restart, advances Idaho exploration</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Revival Gold Vice President of Corporate Development Scott Trebilcock joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s strategy for advancing its U.S.-based gold projects, with a near-term focus on development in Utah while continuing exploration efforts in Idaho.

Trebilcock explained that Revival Gold is working to restart two brownfield mining operations across Utah and Idaho, positioning the company to benefit from favorable gold market conditions. The Utah project has emerged as the top priority, with plans to bring it into production as quickly as possible.

According to the company, the Utah asset is expected to produce approximately 100,000 ounces of gold annually over a ten-year mine life, supported by a preliminary economic assessment based on a 1.4-million-ounce resource. A key advantage of the project is its location on private land, which enables a more streamlined permitting process. Trebilcock noted this could significantly accelerate the development timeline.

Revival Gold is targeting completion of a pre-feasibility study later this year, supported by ongoing drilling and technical advancement work at the site.

Meanwhile, in Idaho, the company continues to advance its Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project, where exploration is focused on expanding a deeper, high-grade underground discovery beneath an existing oxide resource. Current drilling efforts are aimed at growing the resource base and enhancing the project’s long-term development potential.

Trebilcock also pointed to strong gold market fundamentals and supportive U.S. mining jurisdictions as key tailwinds, highlighting increasing momentum for domestic mineral production as a favorable backdrop for Revival Gold’s growth strategy.

      <itunes:summary>Revival Gold Vice President of Corporate Development Scott Trebilcock joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s strategy for advancing its U.S.-based gold projects, with a near-term focus on development in Utah while continuing exploration efforts in Idaho.

Trebilcock explained that Revival Gold is working to restart two brownfield mining operations across Utah and Idaho, positioning the company to benefit from favorable gold market conditions. The Utah project has emerged as the top priority, with plans to bring it into production as quickly as possible.

According to the company, the Utah asset is expected to produce approximately 100,000 ounces of gold annually over a ten-year mine life, supported by a preliminary economic assessment based on a 1.4-million-ounce resource. A key advantage of the project is its location on private land, which enables a more streamlined permitting process. Trebilcock noted this could significantly accelerate the development timeline.

Revival Gold is targeting completion of a pre-feasibility study later this year, supported by ongoing drilling and technical advancement work at the site.

Meanwhile, in Idaho, the company continues to advance its Beartrack-Arnett Gold Project, where exploration is focused on expanding a deeper, high-grade underground discovery beneath an existing oxide resource. Current drilling efforts are aimed at growing the resource base and enhancing the project’s long-term development potential.

Trebilcock also pointed to strong gold market fundamentals and supportive U.S. mining jurisdictions as key tailwinds, highlighting increasing momentum for domestic mineral production as a favorable backdrop for Revival Gold’s growth strategy.

      <title>Alvopetro reports strong 2025 growth, expands Murucututu plans &amp; announces Q1 2026 dividend</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Alvopetro Energy Ltd (TSX-V:ALV, OTC:ALVOF, FRA:A6Y0) CEO Corey Ruttan talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong 2025 performance and growth outlook for 2026, highlighting record production, reserve expansion, and a disciplined capital allocation strategy.

Ruttan described 2025 as a “transformational year,” driven primarily by the success of the 183-D4 well in Brazil’s Murucututu project and the addition of a new growth platform in Canada. The company delivered 41% year-over-year production growth and increased proved plus probable (2P) reserves by 43%, replacing production nearly five times. He also emphasized that Alvopetro returned over 45% of funds flow from operations to stakeholders while continuing to invest in growth.

The company exited 2025 with record quarterly production of nearly 2,900 barrels of oil equivalent per day and continued that momentum into 2026. As Ruttan noted, “we’ve really kicked off 2026 with a very strong start… nearly 3,100 barrels of oil equivalent per day.”

Alvopetro is also advancing a facilities expansion at Murucututu, targeting increased capacity up to 600,000m³ per day, alongside optimization of its natural gas processing infrastructure. At the same time, the company is progressing drilling opportunities in Canada, with over 100 tier-one locations identified.

With a quarterly dividend yielding 8% and a balanced reinvestment strategy, Alvopetro positions itself as a value, yield, and growth story. The company expects continued momentum, with potential for 25% production growth in 2026.

      <title>Ocean Power Technologies reports record backlog, lands $6.5M DHS contract</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ocean Power Technologies CEO Philipp Stratmann joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s financial results for its fiscal third quarter ended January 31, 2026, highlighting a record backlog and a major new government contract.

The company announced it has secured a multi-buoy contract valued at approximately $6.5 million from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security in support of a United States Coast Guard maritime domain awareness mission off San Diego.

Stratmann explained that the award provides multi-quarter revenue visibility, with delivery of four newly built MERROWS®-equipped PowerBuoy® systems expected to begin in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026. The contract also supports the company’s strategic shift toward higher-margin, recurring revenue streams.

The deployment will be carried out in collaboration with Anduril Industries, the project’s prime contractor. Integrating PowerBuoy® systems alongside Anduril’s surveillance towers positions Ocean Power Technologies within a next-generation, scalable defense sensing architecture in one of the United States’ most critical maritime regions. The initiative also establishes a significant relationship with both DHS and the U.S. Coast Guard.

Financially, the company reported a backlog of approximately $19.9 million as of January 31, 2026, representing an increase of $12.4 million, or 165%, compared to the prior year. Its project pipeline reached $163.9 million, up $74.7 million, or 84%, from $89.2 million a year earlier.

Stratmann noted that the quarter reflects strong contract momentum and positions the company at the forefront of evolving maritime security and autonomy solutions. He added that Ocean Power Technologies is helping to define a new category of scalable maritime infrastructure, enabling autonomous systems to power, recharge, and operate continuously at sea.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai says Kraftylabs achieves profitability in first month</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that its recently acquired subsidiary Kraftylabs achieved profitability in February 2026, marking its first full month of operations under Nextech3D.ai.

Gappelberg highlighted that Krafty Labs generated approximately $130,000 in revenue during the month, delivering a gross margin of 66%, or about $85,000, and a net margin of roughly 55%, equating to approximately $71,000. Management believes these results validate both the quality of the acquisition and the operating leverage embedded within Nextech3D.ai’s platform-driven model.

The company noted continued progress in improving operating efficiency and expanding margins, reinforcing its view that Nextech3D.ai is on track toward achieving cash-flow positive operations in 2026, subject to execution and broader market conditions.

Nextech3D.ai operates a platform-centric AI technology model that supports multiple solutions across event technology, spatial computing, and enterprise applications. Unlike traditional single-product SaaS businesses, the company’s architecture is designed to capture value across multiple customer entry points and use cases, enabling scalable growth opportunities.

Based on existing contracts and historical activity, Nextech3D.ai estimates its current customer base represents approximately $3.0 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR). While not all of this revenue is expected to be recognized within 2026, management believes the ARR profile underscores the scalability and durability of its recurring revenue model.

Unlike traditional single-product SaaS businesses, the company’s architecture is designed to capture value across multiple customer entry points and use cases, enabling scalable growth opportunities.

Based on existing contracts and historical activity, Nextech3D.ai estimates its current customer base represents approximately $3.0 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR). While not all of this revenue is expected to be recognized within 2026, management believes the ARR profile underscores the scalability and durability of its recurring revenue model.

      <title>Guardforce AI CEO and chair discusses expansion into healthcare AI with MGAI acquistion</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Guardforce AI Co Ltd (NASDAQ:GFAI, NASDAQ:GFAIW) CEO and chairperson Lei ‘Olivia’ Wang talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s acquisition of MGAI and how it supports Guardforce AI’s broader strategy to build AI-driven productivity infrastructure.

Wang explained that Guardforce AI is evolving from its legacy businesses in cash management, smart retail and robotics into an AI-focused technology company, with a mission to “build AI agents as productivity infrastructure” and create a “super assistant for both personal and the professionals to make better decisions.”

The acquisition of MGAI marks a move into healthcare, specifically children’s speech and language rehabilitation. Wang highlighted that MGAI is not an early-stage venture but a proven platform with “110,000 patients already served” and “20,000 rehabilitation professionals on the platform.” The company provides AI-powered tools to support therapists, standardise assessments and improve therapy management.

She said the deal structure combines cash and equity, with performance-based milestones tied to revenue targets over three years. This approach limits downside risk while aligning long-term growth incentives.
Wang emphasised that the acquisition fits into Guardforce AI’s wider strategy, noting that MGAI and its travel-focused AI agent DVGO are “two minds, but one strategy.” She added that further acquisitions are likely as the company builds a repeatable model for scaling AI solutions across industries.

Looking ahead, Wang outlined goals including predictable recurring AI revenue, expansion across Asia, and establishing Guardforce AI as a scalable AI application company.

      <title>Why biotech is back: IBT portfolio manager’s view</title>
      <description><![CDATA[International Biotechnology Trust (IBT) portfolio manager Ailsa Craig talked with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion about the trust’s recent outperformance, the resurgence of biotech markets, and why merger and acquisition (M&A) activity is becoming a key driver of returns.

Craig explained that after a prolonged downturn, biotech is regaining momentum, supported by improved performance and renewed investor interest. She highlighted that IBT benefited from gearing during market weakness and from multiple acquisitions within the portfolio, noting that “we have nine acquisitions out of the fund, making performance really strong.”

The trust employs a flexible investment strategy, combining both top-down and bottom-up approaches while actively rotating holdings based on clinical progress and market conditions. Craig emphasized that this adaptability has enabled IBT to outperform its peer group over the long term.

A major theme discussed was the acceleration in M&A activity, driven by large pharmaceutical companies facing significant patent expiries. Craig stated, “we're seeing a pickup in M&A right now because big pharma companies are facing massive patent expiry,” adding that further deal momentum is expected.

She also pointed to attractive valuations in late-stage biotech firms, particularly those nearing commercialization, and noted increasing IPO activity as a sign the sector is returning to normal. With strong demand from cash-rich pharma companies and improving fundamentals, Craig suggested now is a compelling time for investors to revisit biotech.

      <title>Ilika CEO on Goliath batteries passing battlefield safety tests, defence sector opportunity</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the successful safety testing of the company’s Goliath solid-state batteries under battlefield conditions, highlighting a key validation from a UK defence agency.

Purdy explained that the batteries were subjected to live-fire testing on a firing range, where they were penetrated by various types of ammunition to assess their response. The results demonstrated the inherent safety advantages of Ilika’s solid-state battery technology compared to traditional lithium-ion alternatives. As Purdy noted, “they are intrinsically safer because they don't have a flammable liquid electrolyte component,” which significantly reduces the risk of dangerous reactions under extreme conditions.

The interview also explored the growing opportunity within the defence sector. While Ilika originally developed Goliath batteries for electric vehicles and consumer electronics, increasing global tensions and the electrification of military equipment have opened up new demand. Applications such as drones, communication systems, and intelligence devices are driving the need for safer, high-performance battery solutions.

Purdy highlighted that validation from a UK defence agency is particularly important, given its influence with the Ministry of Defence. The company is now working with partners across the supply chain to convert this interest into commercial agreements and deliver returns on its technology investment.

      <title>Rome Resources CEO on more high-grade tin results from Kalayi prospect in the DRC</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest high-grade tin drilling results at its Kalayi prospect in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Barrett explained that recent drilling continues to deliver consistent tin mineralisation, reinforcing confidence in the scale of the deposit. He noted that nearly all drill holes intersect significant tin, highlighting strong continuity across the project. As drilling progresses, the company is also seeing wider intercepts, which are expected to support an increase in the overall resource estimate.

Importantly, mineralisation is extending at depth, strengthening confidence in the project's potential. While this does not necessarily change the ultimate target, Barrett said it increases the likelihood of achieving meaningful resource growth. He stated: “We're getting the same grades, but we're getting thicker intercepts,” underlining the significance of recent results.

With tin prices remaining strong, Rome Resources is also moving closer to development. The Kalayi licence benefits from its classification as a small-scale mining licence, which could streamline the transition into production. In addition, nearby processing infrastructure presents a potential pathway to accelerate development through partnerships.

Barrett emphasised that the project could be fast-tracked, pointing to limited regulatory hurdles and ongoing discussions with neighbouring operators.

With tin prices remaining strong, Rome Resources is also moving closer to development. The Kalayi licence benefits from its classification as a small-scale mining licence, which could streamline the transition into production. In addition, nearby processing infrastructure presents a potential pathway to accelerate development through partnerships.

Barrett emphasised that the project could be fast-tracked, pointing to limited regulatory hurdles and ongoing discussions with neighbouring operators.

      <title>Coinsilium CEO on Prediction Labs investment as company hones in on event-drive finance</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Coinsilium Group Limited (AQSE:COIN, OTCQB:CINGF, FRA:5CT) CEO Eddy Travia talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategic move into prediction markets through its investment in Prediction Labs.

Travia explained that Coinsilium has identified prediction markets as a key focus area for 2026, highlighting the sector’s rapid expansion over the past two years. He noted that the market is already valued at more than $65 billion and is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. According to Travia, “we believe it can go much higher, over the next two, three years,” underlining the company’s confidence in the sector’s long-term potential.

The discussion also explored why Coinsilium is particularly interested in the intersection of blockchain and trading. Travia pointed out that many prediction platforms rely on blockchain technology to facilitate trades, record transactions, and enable cryptocurrency payments, making the space highly aligned with Coinsilium’s expertise.

He also outlined why Prediction Labs’ focus on data and intelligence is especially attractive. Rather than operating purely as a trading platform, the company is positioning itself within the data infrastructure layer, which Travia said has historically delivered strong returns in both traditional finance and the crypto sector.

Finally, Travia detailed the milestone-based investment approach, noting that Coinsilium will scale its stake based on technological progress, platform launch, and user growth, including adoption by institutions and AI agents.

      <title>Transition Metals advances Yukon asset, eyes partnerships and drilling</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Transition Metals CEO Scott Mclean joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s latest project developments, financial position, and exploration plans across Canada.

McLean highlighted that Transition Metals has secured a 100% interest in its Pike Warden project in the Yukon, describing it as a large and highly prospective asset with both porphyry and epithermal potential. He noted the presence of newly identified porphyry targets alongside as many as 30 significant high-grade gold and silver epithermal showings.

The company is actively seeking a strategic partner to help advance Pike Warden through more capital-intensive stages, including geophysical surveys and drilling programs.

Beyond Yukon, Transition Metals maintains a diversified portfolio of approximately 14 projects across multiple provinces. A key focus for 2026 is the Gowganda gold project in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt, a prolific mining region where an estimated 15 million ounces of gold have been historically discovered along similar geological structures.

The company is also progressing its Saturday Night platinum-palladium project near Thunder Bay, where early drilling has confirmed widespread mineralization, supporting further exploration potential.

Transition Metals reported a strong financial position, with approximately $3 million in cash, and is pursuing flow-through financing to support ongoing exploration activities without diluting core capital.
With multiple active assets and planned drill programs, McLean emphasized that the company is gearing up for a busy and catalyst-rich field season in 2026.

      <title>ImmuPharma CEO on P140 progress and expanded pipeline with Kapiglucagon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ImmuPharma PLC (AIM:IMM, FRA:25I) CEO Tim McCarthy joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio to discuss the company's latest developments, including progress on its lead asset P140, a newly accelerated program for Kapiglucagon, and recent fundraising activity.

McCarthy emphasised that P140 remains the company’s primary focus, with ongoing licensing discussions described as highly active. He stated, “We are delivering a deal this year. We're confident of doing that,” highlighting continued engagement with multiple potential partners, including new parties that have approached the company since late 2025.

Alongside this, ImmuPharma has advanced Kapiglucagon into an accelerated development program following interest and funding support from existing shareholders. The asset, targeting Type 1 diabetes (T1D), is designed to address limitations in current glucose delivery systems. McCarthy explained that Kapiglucagon offers improved solubility and stability, making it suitable for next-generation dual hormone pumps.

The company has secured funding led by Lanstead Capital Investors to support a two-year development plan, with the goal of progressing Kapiglucagon toward potential licensing discussions. McCarthy noted that early engagement with industry players has already generated strong interest.

On top of the £6 million raised through a subscription with Lanstead, a further £1.5 million may be raised through a retail offer opening today via the Winterflood Retail Access Platform (WRAP), giving existing and new UK investors the opportunity to participate at the same price of 6.0 pence per share, a 13.7% discount to the previous closing price.

Despite the expansion of its pipeline, McCarthy reiterated that the company’s strategy remains centred on P140, stating that “our total focus has not been diverted one iota in pushing forward those license discussions.”

      <title>ATOME CEO on $420M debt financing &amp; green fertiliser edge</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ATOME PLC (AIM:ATOM) CEO Olivier Mussat talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company securing $420 million in debt financing for its flagship Villeta green fertiliser project in Paraguay and what the milestone means for the company’s growth strategy and investor returns.

Mussat explained that the financing package brings together several major development finance institutions, including the European Investment Bank, FMO, the Inter-American Development Bank, IFC and the Green Climate Fund, highlighting strong institutional support for the project. He described the process as rigorous but said the institutions recognised the project’s strong economic fundamentals, bankability and potential impact on both climate and food security. As Mussat put it, “they saw the quality of our project… the economic case… and the bankability of it.”

The Villeta project aims to produce fertiliser without relying on fossil fuels, using low-cost renewable power to create a competitive cost base. Mussat said this allows ATOME to potentially produce fertiliser more cheaply than imports from regions such as Russia or the Middle East while also delivering a lower-carbon alternative. The company has already secured a major offtake agreement with fertiliser giant Yara for 100% of production, helping to reduce project risk.

During the discussion, Mussat also highlighted growing volatility in global fertiliser supply chains. With around 30% of supply linked to Russia and significant volumes moving through geopolitical hotspots, recent tensions in the Middle East have pushed fertiliser prices sharply higher and exposed vulnerabilities in the market.

Looking ahead, ATOME plans to replicate the model developed at Villeta across other locations and expand into renewable power through its ATOME Power division, which could accelerate future project development.

The company has already secured a major offtake agreement with fertiliser giant Yara for 100% of production, helping to reduce project risk.

During the discussion, Mussat also highlighted growing volatility in global fertiliser supply chains. With around 30% of supply linked to Russia and significant volumes moving through geopolitical hotspots, recent tensions in the Middle East have pushed fertiliser prices sharply higher and exposed vulnerabilities in the market.

Looking ahead, ATOME plans to replicate the model developed at Villeta across other locations and expand into renewable power through its ATOME Power division, which could accelerate future project development.

      <itunes:subtitle>ATOME PLC (AIM:ATOM) CEO Olivier Mussat talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company securing $420 million in debt financing for its flagship Villeta green fertiliser project in Paraguay and what the milestone means for the company’s growth strategy and investor returns.

Mussat explained that the financing package brings together several major development finance institutions, including the European Investment Bank, FMO, the Inter-American Development Bank, IFC and the Green Climate Fund, highlighting strong institutional support for the project. He described the process as rigorous but said the institutions recognised the project’s strong economic fundamentals, bankability and potential impact on both climate and food security. As Mussat put it, “they saw the quality of our project… the economic case… and the bankability of it.”

      <title>Standard Uranium begins first drilling at Rocas project in Athabasca Basin</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that drilling has officially commenced at the Company’s Rocas Uranium Project, located approximately 75 kilometres southwest of the Key Lake Mine and Mill facilities.

The Rocas Project is subject to a three-year earn-in option agreement with Collective Metals, which can earn a 75% interest by funding CAD$4.5 million in exploration expenditures. Under the agreement, the current drill program is fully funded by Collective Metals and operated by Standard Uranium.

The exploration team mobilized to site on March 16, with diamond drilling now underway on the first-ever hole at Rocas. The winter/spring 2026 campaign is expected to comprise approximately 1,200 to 1,500 metres of drilling, targeting high-priority zones identified through a 2025 ground gravity survey and integrated geophysical modeling.

Rocas covers 4,002 hectares across three mineral claims along Highway 914 in the southeastern Athabasca Basin, a globally significant uranium district. Recent fieldwork has confirmed the presence of both uranium and rare earth element (REE) mineralization across the property. Notably, a newly identified pegmatite outcrop returned assays of up to 9.83% total rare earth oxides (TREO) and 0.016% U₃O₈ from grab samples.

Additional uranium assays from outcrop and boulder samples across the project range from 0.007% to 0.409% U₃O₈, highlighting widespread mineralization potential.

The inaugural drill program will focus on testing high-priority targets along a 7.5-kilometre magnetic low and electromagnetic conductive corridor. This corridor coincides with gravity lows, cross-cutting structural features, and multiple uranium and REE surface occurrences, making it a compelling exploration target.

Management believes the program represents a key milestone in unlocking the project’s potential, as Standard Uranium advances exploration efforts within one of the world’s premier uranium jurisdictions.

      <title>Pinnacle Silver and Gold discovers new polymetallic zone at El Potrero</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pinnacle Silver and Gold CEO Robert Archer joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the discovery of previously unknown silver-lead-zinc mineralization on the southern block of its high-grade El Potrero gold-silver project in Durango.

The discovery was made during the early stages of a mapping and prospecting program designed to follow up on historic workings identified through a recently completed airborne LiDAR survey. The survey covered the entire 1,074-hectare property, confirming known structural trends while also identifying previously unrecognized features, including six shafts, 64 adits, and 51 prospecting pits across the project’s two claim blocks.

Follow-up fieldwork began in early February on the Maria Fernanda 2 (MF2) claim block, where three shafts, 14 adits, and 22 pits were identified. Initial prospecting revealed multiple outcrops hosting silver-lead-zinc sulphide mineralization within silicified breccia veins in porphyritic andesite.
Channel sampling returned strong assay results, including values up to 266 grams per tonne silver, 4.39% lead, and 2.89% zinc over sample lengths of up to 0.9 metres.

Archer noted that mineralization on the northern El Potrero block has historically been limited to gold and silver, with no base metals identified. As a result, this new polymetallic discovery represents an entirely new exploration target for the project. He added that the presence of similar polymetallic systems in four nearby operating mines supports the geological potential for further discoveries on the property.

Pinnacle plans to continue follow-up mapping, sampling, and prospecting across the MF2 block, while also initiating exploration on previously untested areas of the northern El Potrero block, where additional artisanal workings have been identified through LiDAR interpretation.

      <title>Active Energy eyes rapid growth with new capacity as it acquires second project in Abu Dhabi</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Active Energy Group PLC (AIM:AEG, OTCQB:ATGVF) CEO Paul Elliott talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s agreement to acquire a second energised grid connection asset that will take its secured capacity to about 13 MVA of grid capacity and how this development accelerates its growth strategy.

Elliott explained that securing energised capacity significantly shortens the path to revenue generation, enabling the company to move much faster than traditional infrastructure buildouts. The company is now targeting a substantial expansion to 100 megawatts within the next 12 to 18 months, leveraging both acquisitions and modular data centre deployment.

He highlighted that non-operational assets present a strategic advantage, allowing Active Energy to bypass legacy constraints and deploy solutions rapidly. Elliott noted that some sites could begin generating revenue “within a month,” underscoring the speed of execution now possible.

The CEO also pointed to a strong acquisition pipeline driven by regional uncertainty, which has created opportunities to secure assets at attractive valuations. This environment could prove pivotal for scaling efficiently while maintaining a diversified portfolio of sites to reduce risk.

On capital strategy, Elliott emphasised a disciplined approach to shareholder value, stating, “We’re focused on scaling the business in a way that builds long-term value, not just raising capital for the sake of it,” while ensuring alignment with strategic investors.

      <title>IP Group CEO on 2025 highlights, NAV uplift, Pfizer royalties &amp; capital allocation</title>
      <description><![CDATA[IP Group PLC (LSE:IPO) CEO Greg Smith talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 2025 results, highlighting 13% growth in NAV per share and the strategic developments across its portfolio. The discussion focused on how IP Group’s exposure to Pfizer’s acquisition of Metsera could generate significant long-term royalty income for shareholders.

Smith explained that the company licenses the fundamental intellectual property behind an anti-obesity programme to Pfizer following the pharmaceutical giant’s acquisition of Metsera. The exposure has already been recognised with a £130 million asset valuation, equivalent to around 14p per share.

The conversation also covered several portfolio milestones during 2025. These included the successful IPO of Hinge Health on the New York Stock Exchange, which generated strong returns for IP Group, delivering approximately 50 times the company’s original investment after exiting its position. Another key development was the sale of Monolith to Nasdaq-listed CoreWeave, bringing additional proceeds and further payments expected in 2026.

Smith also discussed funding activity across the portfolio, including Artios Pharma’s $100 million Series D financing and a £100 million raise by autonomous vehicle company Oxa, backed by investors including the National Wealth Fund and Nvidia’s venture arm.

Alongside investments, IP Group has continued to return capital to shareholders through share buybacks, while targeting £250 million in exits by the end of 2027.

      <itunes:summary>IP Group PLC (LSE:IPO) CEO Greg Smith talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 2025 results, highlighting 13% growth in NAV per share and the strategic developments across its portfolio. The discussion focused on how IP Group’s exposure to Pfizer’s acquisition of Metsera could generate significant long-term royalty income for shareholders.

Smith explained that the company licenses the fundamental intellectual property behind an anti-obesity programme to Pfizer following the pharmaceutical giant’s acquisition of Metsera. The exposure has already been recognised with a £130 million asset valuation, equivalent to around 14p per share.

The conversation also covered several portfolio milestones during 2025. These included the successful IPO of Hinge Health on the New York Stock Exchange, which generated strong returns for IP Group, delivering approximately 50 times the company’s original investment after exiting its position. Another key development was the sale of Monolith to Nasdaq-listed CoreWeave, bringing additional proceeds and further payments expected in 2026.

Smith also discussed funding activity across the portfolio, including Artios Pharma’s $100 million Series D financing and a £100 million raise by autonomous vehicle company Oxa, backed by investors including the National Wealth Fund and Nvidia’s venture arm.

Alongside investments, IP Group has continued to return capital to shareholders through share buybacks, while targeting £250 million in exits by the end of 2027.

      <title>Empire Metals MD says high-grade titanium zone boosts Pitfield economics</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Empire Metals Ltd (AIM:EEE, OTCQX:EPMLF) managing director Shaun Bunn talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest drilling results at the Pitfield project, highlighting the confirmation of a near-surface high-grade titanium zone at the Thomas prospect and its implications for project economics and development.

Bunn explained that recent diamond drilling has enabled the company to gain a much clearer understanding of the mineralisation, noting that the campaign intersected “really good thick interval between 10 and 20, 30 meter intervals, up around 10% TiO₂ in situ.” These results validate earlier exploration and demonstrate the consistency and scale of the high-grade zone.

He emphasised the significance of this discovery for the project’s economics, pointing out that mining in this area could deliver “10–20% more titanium in the ore” without increasing mining costs, which could materially enhance early cash flow and overall project value.

The discussion also covered Empire Metals’ largest-ever drilling campaign, spanning approximately 41,000 metres across 750 holes. Bunn highlighted the efficiency of the program, stating the average drilling cost is “only about $90 Australian” per metre, reflecting the expertise of the exploration team.

The campaign is designed to upgrade resource confidence at Thomas, expand the Cosgrove target, and provide material for metallurgical testing, supporting ongoing development of the Pitfield project.

      <title>Buccaneer Energy CEO on cash-flow boost from Carlisle-1 acquisition &amp; next milestones</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Buccaneer Energy Plc (AIM:BUCE, FRA:LMU1) CEO Paul Welch talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest acquisition and how it is set to strengthen near-term cash flow while unlocking longer-term production growth.

Welch explained that the newly acquired Carlisle-1 well increases Buccaneer’s production to around 155 barrels of oil per day, providing a meaningful boost to revenue generation. At current oil prices, the asset is expected to generate around $50,000 per month in net free cash, highlighting the importance of the acquisition for the company’s financial position.

Welch noted that the well benefits from particularly low operating costs, improving margins and making it a strong addition to the portfolio. He said the acquisition provides “a tremendous net back from this well,” reinforcing its value to the company’s production base.

The interview also explored the proposed Fouke water flood project, which could play a key role in unlocking further reserves within the field. Welch highlighted that the Carlisle well still contains 50,000 to 60,000 barrels of remaining primary reserves, but under water flood development that could expand to around 250,000 barrels.

Importantly, the project could significantly extend the life of the field. As Welch told Proactive, “It will allow this field, this portion of the field, for the production to extend another 10 to 15 years.”

Looking ahead, Buccaneer Energy plans further organic oil recovery treatments in April, followed by the potential start of the Fouke water flood around mid-year, both of which could help drive production and revenue growth.

      <title>Team Internet CEO on 2025 transition, Commerce Media and DIS sale</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Team Internet Group PLC (AIM:TIG, OTCQX:TIGXF, FRA:4CN)  CEO Michael Riedl talked with Proactive about the company’s 2025 transition year, progress in reshaping the business and what investors should watch for in 2026.

Riedl explained that the company delivered results at the high end of analyst expectations, while significantly reshaping its revenue mix. He highlighted that around 80% of EBITDA now comes from the Domains, Identity and Software (DIS) and comparison platforms, areas that are largely unaffected by changes in the search division.

The CEO also discussed the company’s move away from legacy monetisation in its search business. According to Riedl, the transition is now effectively complete, with “nearly 100% of revenue coming from next generation monetisation tools.” The company has also been building new revenue streams, including commerce media initiatives that already represent a multi-million-dollar EBITDA run-rate business.

A key strategic development under review is the potential sale of the DIS segment. Riedl said the board would only consider a transaction that reflects the “full, true and fair value” of the business. Proceeds from any sale could partly be used to repay debt, with the remaining capital potentially returned to shareholders through mechanisms such as a special dividend or tender offer.

Looking ahead to 2026, Riedl said investors should focus on several performance indicators, including continued growth in value-added services within DIS, expansion beyond the German-speaking DACH region and the increasing contribution from commerce media. The company is also developing products designed to reduce reliance on a single partner, particularly within search monetisation.

      <title>First Phosphate CEO on $16.7M in federal funding for Bégin-Lamarche phosphate project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[First Phosphate Corp. (CSE:PHOS, OTCQX:FRSPF, FRA:KD0, OTC:FPHOY) CEO John Passalacqua talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's newly secured C$16.7 million non-repayable contribution from the Government of Canada and how it will support development of the Bégin-Lamarche phosphate project in Quebec.

Passalacqua explained that the funding is a significant milestone for the company because it allows First Phosphate to advance its project through key development stages without needing to raise additional dilutive capital. The Bégin-Lamarche deposit is described as a rare igneous phosphate deposit specifically suited for the production of high-purity phosphate used in lithium iron phosphate (LFP) batteries, an increasingly important battery chemistry for electric vehicles and energy storage.

Passalacqua noted that the government support will fund progress through the feasibility study stage and toward a final investment decision, marking an important validation of the project and its strategic role in North America’s battery supply chain.

He highlighted the significance of the contribution, stating: “This contribution from the federal government of Canada is extremely important for us. It gets us all the way throughout our feasibility study, all the way through to final investment decision without having to raise capital dilutively.”

The CEO also outlined upcoming milestones investors should watch, including the completion of final drilling, advancement to a feasibility study targeted for completion by the end of 2026, environmental permitting expected in 2027, and the potential start of mine operations by 2029 to meet existing offtake agreements.

Passalacqua further explained that First Phosphate aims to play a major role in building a fully integrated LFP battery supply chain in North America, producing material from mine through to cathode active material used in lithium-ion batteries.

      <title>European Green Transition raises £7.5M for Earthmill acquisition</title>
      <description><![CDATA[European Green Transition PLC (AIM:EGT) executive chair and co-founder Cathal Friel talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recently announced conditional £7.5 million fundraising and its acquisition of wind turbine maintenance and monitoring businesses, including Earthmill Maintenance.

Friel described the raise as a strong result in what he called a “tricky market,” noting that the fundraising was significantly oversubscribed and ultimately scaled up from an initial £5 million target to £7.5 million. The capital will support growth initiatives following the company’s acquisition of assets from Arena Capital Partners, including Earthmill, WEP, Silverford Engineering and a majority stake in analytics company AMOS.

According to Friel, European Green Transition acquired the businesses for £3.5 million and believes the assets offer strong upside potential. He highlighted that the acquired operations already generate recurring revenues of around £14–15 million annually and are EBITDA profitable. The company sees particular potential in the “repowering” opportunity within the wind energy sector.

Earthmill Maintenance managing director David Broadbank explained that the company provides wind turbine servicing, remote monitoring and component replacement services across the UK and Ireland. Beyond maintenance, the business also works with clients to upgrade older turbines to more efficient models capable of generating significantly more electricity.

Broadbank outlined how replacing a 250kW turbine with a 660kW unit can dramatically increase electricity generation and annual revenue for site owners, helping businesses improve energy security and reduce reliance on volatile fossil fuel markets.

Friel said European Green Transition believes Earthmill could surpass comparable businesses in scale and is targeting £50 million in revenue with double-digit EBITDA margins over the medium term.

      <title>HIVE Digital Technologies CEO on AMC Robotics collaboration, AI robotics and GPU cloud growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd (TSX-V:HIVE, NASDAQ:HIVE, FRA:YO0, BVC:HIVECO) President & CEO Aydin Kilic talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s expansion into AI-powered robotics and the growth of its global GPU cloud infrastructure.

Kilic discussed HIVE’s collaboration with AMC Robotics, a company developing security-focused robotic dogs powered by advanced AI vision systems. The partnership highlights how HIVE’s GPU cloud infrastructure can support complex video processing requirements for moving robotic cameras.

The CEO explained that the company has been steadily expanding its GPU and cloud offerings over the past three years. A recent milestone includes a two-year contract valued at $30 million for 504 Nvidia Blackwell GPUs, which contributes $15 million in annual run-rate revenue. As a result, HIVE Digital Technologies has increased its annual run-rate revenue from $20 million to $35 million.

Kilic said the robotics partnership demonstrates the growing demand for high-performance computing in real-world AI applications. He noted that mobile robotics require significantly more computing power than traditional stationary camera systems because moving cameras continuously change their field of view.

“You are seeing AI powered robotics where that level of information processing allows robots to be autonomous or just have better mobility navigating obstacles and being more effective in the field,” Kilic said.

Looking ahead, HIVE Digital Technologies plans to scale its GPU cloud infrastructure and build additional Tier 3 data centers as part of its sovereign compute strategy. The company is targeting significant growth in high-performance computing revenue and expects more enterprise partnerships as AI adoption accelerates.

For HIVE Digital Technologies, the collaboration with AMC Robotics represents a practical example of how AI infrastructure can power emerging technologies in security, logistics and industrial applications.

      <title>Summit Royalties boost portfolio with royalty interest in Newmont&apos;s Saddle North deposit</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Summit Royalties (TSX-V:SUM, OTCQB:SUMMF) CEO Drew Clark talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest acquisition and the strategy behind building a diversified precious metals royalty portfolio.

Clark explained that Summit Royalties is a relatively new entrant into the precious metals royalty sector, founded roughly a year ago after acquiring a portfolio of cash-flowing royalties and streams from IAMGOLD. Despite only trading publicly for a few months, the company is already cash-flow positive and actively expanding its portfolio.

A key development discussed in the interview is Summit’s acquisition of a 1% NSR royalty on Newmont’s Saddle North deposit, which Clark described as a long-term opportunity for shareholders. The company acquired the royalty in an all-stock transaction valued at C$5 million.

Clark highlighted the scale of the asset, noting that the deposit contains nearly 9 million ounces of gold and close to 5 billion pounds of copper, positioning it as a significant long-term project.

He said the acquisition adds optionality to Summit’s portfolio while maintaining a focus on assets that generate or are close to generating cash flow. As Clark explained: “Well over half of our net asset value today… is either in production or being built as we speak.”

The interview also covers upcoming catalysts across Summit Royalties’ portfolio. These include ramp-ups at producing assets, development work at the Pitangui project in Brazil, and operational milestones at Zancudo, where a mill installation is expected later this year.

With multiple operational and development catalysts approaching, Clark indicated that the company will continue pursuing accretive acquisitions while raising awareness among investors.

Despite only trading publicly for a few months, the company is already cash-flow positive and actively expanding its portfolio.

A key development discussed in the interview is Summit’s acquisition of a 1% NSR royalty on Newmont’s Saddle North deposit, which Clark described as a long-term opportunity for shareholders. The company acquired the royalty in an all-stock transaction valued at C$5 million.

Clark highlighted the scale of the asset, noting that the deposit contains nearly 9 million ounces of gold and close to 5 billion pounds of copper, positioning it as a significant long-term project.

He said the acquisition adds optionality to Summit’s portfolio while maintaining a focus on assets that generate or are close to generating cash flow. As Clark explained: “Well over half of our net asset value today… is either in production or being built as we speak.”

The interview also covers upcoming catalysts across Summit Royalties’ portfolio. These include ramp-ups at producing assets, development work at the Pitangui project in Brazil, and operational milestones at Zancudo, where a mill installation is expected later this year.

With multiple operational and development catalysts approaching, Clark indicated that the company will continue pursuing accretive acquisitions while raising awareness among investors.

      <title>Northstar Gold confirms high-grade VMS system at Cam Copper Mine</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Northstar Gold Corp CEO Brian Fowler joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss results from a recently completed seven-hole, 1,204-metre Zone 2 definition drill program at the company’s Cam Copper Mine located southeast of Kirkland Lake.

Fowler explained the drilling campaign, completed in December, was designed to support preparation of a NI 43-101 Technical Report and Mineral Resource Estimate. The work will also contribute to an evaluation of Reasonable Prospects for Eventual Economic Extraction for the Cam Copper Surgical Mining Project being conducted by consortium partner Micon International Limited.

Zone 2 definition drilling confirmed the presence of a high-grade polymetallic volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) system with pronounced down-plunge continuity and metal zonation consistent with a robust Besshi-type deposit. One highlight intercept included 3.05% copper, 5.9 grams per tonne gold, 22.9 grams per tonne silver and 0.45% molybdenum over 3.07 metres in drill hole CC-25-14, from 163.05 to 166.12 metres. This intercept is located approximately 50 metres down plunge from a previously reported high-grade intersection of 14.8% copper over 2.45 metres in hole CC-23-03.

The results confirm a polymetallic copper-gold-silver-molybdenum VMS system that appears to increase in grade and thickness with depth, highlighting strong potential to expand the Zone 2 mineralized corridor. Infill drilling also indicates a steeply plunging feeder system characterized by stacked sulphide lenses and preserved metal zonation.

Northstar plans to update the three-dimensional geological model of the Cam Copper system to refine exploration targets along the feeder corridor. The company also intends to conduct step-out drilling along the down-plunge extension of Zone 2 to further test the system’s expansion potential.

      <title>Pineapple Financial launches AI-Driven restructuring resulting in major cost savings</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pineapple Financial Inc CEO Shubha Dasgupta joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s comprehensive operational restructuring as part of its 2026 Core Mortgage Platform strategy.
Dasgupta explained that the structural reset is designed to materially reduce Pineapple’s fixed cost base while strengthening operating leverage as the company enters its next phase of growth.

To date, approximately $1.33 million (C$1.8 million) in annualized cost savings have already been implemented and are expected to be reflected in the company’s run-rate by March 31, 2026. The remaining savings are currently being executed. In total, the restructuring initiatives are expected to reduce annual operating expenses by more than $2.5 million (C$3.4 million).

As part of the transformation, Pineapple is shifting toward a leaner, AI-enabled operating model. This includes a reduction of more than 60% of total headcount, alongside reductions across professional services, software costs, marketing expenditures, and other operating expenses. Management described the initiative as a permanent structural reset of the company’s cost base.

A central element of the strategy is the integration of artificial intelligence across key business functions. Pineapple has deployed AI systems to automate and enhance processes that were previously handled through traditional staffing structures, including workflow automation, data analysis and reporting, and both customer and agent engagement.

By embedding AI directly into its operational infrastructure, the company believes it can maintain platform capability and scalability while significantly lowering its long-term cost structure.

      <title>Faron Pharmaceuticals CEO on €40M raise for key bexmarilimab trial</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Faron Pharmaceuticals Limited (AIM:FARN) CEO Dr Juho Jalkanen talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s planned €40 million rights offering and the next development stage for its lead immunotherapy candidate, bexmarilimab.

Jalkanen explained that the planned capital raise comes at what he described as a pivotal stage for the company. The AIM and Nasdaq-listed Finnish biotech has completed an open-label phase I/II trial evaluating bexmarilimab in patients with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), which produced encouraging results. The company is now preparing to advance the program into a blinded, randomised phase II trial, considered the gold standard in pharmaceutical development.

Jalkanen highlighted that the main goal of the upcoming study is to measure complete remission rates among patients receiving the treatment. He explained that the key milestone will arrive relatively quickly once patients are enrolled. As he noted, “the absolute key and primary goal of the study is the complete remission rate readout… usually comes after three or so months after patients have gone on the drug.”

The CEO also emphasised the broader potential of bexmarilimab beyond MDS. According to Jalkanen, strong data from the earlier trial has generated significant interest among physicians, who are now initiating investigator-led studies exploring the therapy across multiple cancer types and in combination treatments.

Funding from the proposed raise is expected to extend Faron Pharmaceuticals’ cash runway into late 2027, supporting the randomised phase II study while additional investigator-initiated trials generate data in the meantime. Jalkanen said this approach should create a steady flow of clinical updates for investors as the program progresses.

      <itunes:subtitle>Faron Pharmaceuticals Limited (AIM:FARN) CEO Dr Juho Jalkanen talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s planned €40 million rights offering and the next development stage for its lead immunotherapy candidate, bexmarilimab.

Jalkanen explained that the planned capital raise comes at what he described as a pivotal stage for the company. The AIM and Nasdaq-listed Finnish biotech has completed an open-label phase I/II trial evaluating bexmarilimab in patients with higher-risk myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), which produced encouraging results. The company is now preparing to advance the program into a blinded, randomised phase II trial, considered the gold standard in pharmaceutical development.

Jalkanen highlighted that the main goal of the upcoming study is to measure complete remission rates among patients receiving the treatment. He explained that the key milestone will arrive relatively quickly once patients are enrolled. As he noted, “the absolute key and primary goal of the study is the complete remission rate readout… usually comes after three or so months after patients have gone on the drug.”

The CEO also emphasised the broader potential of bexmarilimab beyond MDS. According to Jalkanen, strong data from the earlier trial has generated significant interest among physicians, who are now initiating investigator-led studies exploring the therapy across multiple cancer types and in combination treatments.

Funding from the proposed raise is expected to extend Faron Pharmaceuticals’ cash runway into late 2027, supporting the randomised phase II study while additional investigator-initiated trials generate data in the meantime. Jalkanen said this approach should create a steady flow of clinical updates for investors as the program progresses.

      <title>ACG Metals says &apos;business as usual&apos; at Gediktepe, on time and on budget, despite macro volatility</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ACG Metals Ltd (LSE:ACG, OTC:ACGAF) Chairman and CEO Artem Volynets talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about progress at the company’s Gediktepe project in Turkey, alongside Vice President of Projects Graeme Rapley. The discussion focused on construction progress, the impact of geopolitical volatility on operations, and the company’s production outlook as it advances the Sulphide Expansion.
 
Volynets explained that despite heightened geopolitical concerns in global markets, operations at Gediktepe have not been affected. The project is located in Western Turkey, far from regional tensions, allowing the company to continue development without disruption. He noted that the company is continuing to produce and generate cash flow while building out the Sulphide Project. According to Volynets, “we have effectively zero impact from current geopolitics… for us, it's business as usual.”
 
Rapley provided an update on construction progress at the site, highlighting the arrival of the final major piece of equipment for the mill. With the mill now positioned on its foundations, teams are progressing with structural steel installation and continuing the assembly of key processing infrastructure, including flotation cells and several thickeners.
 
The Sulphide Project remains on time and on budget, with production in the middle of this year. During the first half of the year, the company is producing gold and silver doré from oxide ore previously mined, supporting strong margins. Once the flotation plant comes online, the operation will transition to producing copper and zinc concentrates with gold and silver by-products.
 
Volynets reiterated the company’s production guidance for the year of 20,000 to 22,000 tonnes of copper equivalent, with life-of-mine average production expected to reach 20,000 to 25,000 tonnes annually.

      <title>1911 Gold CEO discusses encouraging True North drilling assays and next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[1911 Gold Corp (TSX-V:AUMB, OTCQB:AUMBF, FRA:2KY) CEO Shaun Heinrichs talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest drilling results at the company’s True North project and what they mean for plans to restart mining operations.

Heinrichs explained that the underground drill program, which began in the fall, has already completed more than 10,000 metres of drilling and is now beginning to deliver a steady stream of assay results. The drilling focused on two key target areas that could support bulk sampling and test mining activities planned for 2026.

The results helped confirm the company’s geological model while also tightening drill spacing to improve resource confidence. Heinrichs noted that the program was designed to move parts of the resource toward a higher confidence classification, saying the company aimed to reduce drill spacing to around 12–15 metres compared with the typical 30-metre spacing used for indicated resources.

He also highlighted encouraging results at the Hinge vein, where the company observed wider mineralized zones than expected in some areas. Heinrichs said the work has provided a solid base for moving ahead with development at the Hinge and L10 targets. “We were very surprised, pleasantly surprised and happy, obviously, to find areas that were wider than what was in the previous model,” Heinrichs told Proactive.

Looking ahead, the company expects to begin underground development at L10 within the coming weeks before shifting focus to the Hinge area. Initial milestones investors should watch include the first underground blasting at the True North mine in roughly eight years, followed by the first stopes being mined later in the year as part of bulk sampling and early test mining activities.

These steps are intended to support a gradual ramp-up toward a planned full mine restart in 2027 while generating gold ounces during the current year.

      <title>AmeriTrust CEO on scaling used vehicle leasing as it targets $1T auto finance market</title>
      <description><![CDATA[AmeriTrust Financial Technologies Inc (TSX-V:AMT, OTCQB:AMTFF) CEO Jeff Morgan talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategy to scale used vehicle leasing across the United States and how proprietary fintech technology could help unlock a major opportunity in automotive finance.

Morgan, a 33-year veteran of the automotive leasing industry based in Fort Worth, Texas, explained that AmeriTrust is aiming to address a major gap in the market. While leasing represents roughly 25% of financed new vehicles in the United States, the used vehicle leasing segment accounts for only about 1% of the market.

AmeriTrust operates a finance company in the United States focused on expanding access to leasing for used vehicles through dealer partnerships nationwide. The company has developed technology designed to convert retail financing applications into lease structures, simplifying the process for dealerships.

Morgan said the platform allows dealers with limited leasing expertise to offer leasing options confidently. “Our technology takes that retail application and converts it to a lease on their behalf,” Morgan explained, adding that the system also pre-fills documents and contracts for the dealership using the customer’s application data.

The CEO also highlighted affordability as a key driver of demand, particularly as living costs have risen in the United States since the pandemic. AmeriTrust’s leasing structure can reduce monthly payments by $25 to $125 compared with traditional retail auto loans, according to Morgan.

Looking ahead to 2026, Morgan said the company intends to pursue steady growth while focusing on vehicles that are five years old or newer and still within manufacturer warranty periods. With the broader automotive finance sector representing a trillion-dollar market, Morgan believes even modest market penetration could represent significant value creation.

      <title>Light Science Technologies CEO Simon Deacon on £6M Raise &amp; Injectaclad growth plan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Light Science Technologies Holdings PLC (AIM:LST, FRA:9FD) CEO Simon Deacon talked with Proactive's Stepuen Gunnion about the company’s latest acquisitions, including the strategic purchase of Injectaclad, and how the deal positions the group for growth in the passive fire protection market.

Deacon described the move as transformational for the group, explaining that the acquisitions strengthen the company’s contract electronics manufacturing division while also enabling the expansion of its passive fire protection offering. The Injectaclad technology plays a central role in this strategy, providing a patented graphite sealant material designed to prevent fire and smoke from spreading through cavities in high-rise buildings. The material expands significantly under heat, helping seal gaps and maintain fire protection.

The CEO highlighted the scale of the opportunity, noting that thousands of buildings require remediation work following updated building safety regulations. According to Deacon, the acquisition creates an opportunity to address a significant market need while generating strong margins. As he explained during the interview, “we see this as being a really good cash-generative, profitable business, which can be expanded very quickly at a low cost.”

The company raised £6 million to fund the acquisitions, invest in research and development, and strengthen the balance sheet to support larger contracts. Deacon also discussed plans to expand in defence and medical electronics markets while scaling the Injectaclad installation network to accelerate revenue growth.

Watch the full interview to learn how Light Science Technologies Holdings PLC plans to convert its pipeline opportunities and scale its fire safety and electronics divisions.

      <itunes:summary>Light Science Technologies Holdings PLC (AIM:LST, FRA:9FD) CEO Simon Deacon talked with Proactive&apos;s Stepuen Gunnion about the company’s latest acquisitions, including the strategic purchase of Injectaclad, and how the deal positions the group for growth in the passive fire protection market.

Deacon described the move as transformational for the group, explaining that the acquisitions strengthen the company’s contract electronics manufacturing division while also enabling the expansion of its passive fire protection offering. The Injectaclad technology plays a central role in this strategy, providing a patented graphite sealant material designed to prevent fire and smoke from spreading through cavities in high-rise buildings. The material expands significantly under heat, helping seal gaps and maintain fire protection.

The CEO highlighted the scale of the opportunity, noting that thousands of buildings require remediation work following updated building safety regulations. According to Deacon, the acquisition creates an opportunity to address a significant market need while generating strong margins. As he explained during the interview, “we see this as being a really good cash-generative, profitable business, which can be expanded very quickly at a low cost.”

The company raised £6 million to fund the acquisitions, invest in research and development, and strengthen the balance sheet to support larger contracts. Deacon also discussed plans to expand in defence and medical electronics markets while scaling the Injectaclad installation network to accelerate revenue growth.

      <title>Active Energy CEO on Abu Dhabi grid asset acquisition &amp; 100MW goal</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Active Energy Group PLC (AIM:AEG, OTCQB:ATGVF) CEO Paul Elliott talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a transaction to acquire a live grid connection site in Abu Dhabi for a total of £2 million, subject to due diligence.

Elliott explained that power availability across global markets, including the UAE, is becoming increasingly constrained. Because of this, Active Energy is focusing on acquiring sites where grid connections are already in place. According to Elliott, this approach allows the company to bypass the lengthy process of securing new power allocations and associated infrastructure development.

“Our strategy is to secure the power and land first, then deploy our modular infrastructure on top of that capacity while securing off-take agreements with clients,” Elliott said.

He highlighted that the recently discussed Ghummud site already has an energised grid connection, meaning infrastructure can be deployed quickly. Rather than taking years, Elliott said installations could be completed within weeks, allowing the company to move rapidly from acquisition to revenue generation. 
The site currently offers just under 3 megawatts of capacity, but Elliott noted that upgrades could potentially increase capacity significantly.

Elliott added that the acquisition forms part of a wider regional growth strategy. Active Energy is actively seeking additional grid-connected sites across the UAE and surrounding region to build a larger infrastructure footprint. The company’s objective is to scale toward 100 megawatts of capacity within the next 12 to 18 months.

He also noted that geopolitical shifts in the Middle East are creating investment opportunities as some investors step back from projects, presenting favourable acquisition opportunities for Active Energy.

      <title>Rainbow Rare Earths CEO says Brazil project could replicate Phalaborwa success</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd (LSE:RBW, OTC:RBWRF, FRA:RR1) CEO George Bennett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s Uberaba rare earths project in Brazil and why an economic assessment suggests it could replicate the success of the company’s Phalaborwa project.

Bennett explained that the project benefits from a unique approach to rare earth extraction. Instead of traditional mining, Rainbow plans to recover rare earth elements from phosphogypsum residue generated during phosphoric acid production at Mosaic’s fertiliser operations in Brazil. This process eliminates many of the typical mining steps such as drilling, blasting and crushing, helping to significantly reduce operating costs and development risk.

The Uberaba site also offers a long operational horizon. According to Bennett, the phosphoric acid facilities feeding the residue are expected to operate for more than 30 years, creating a long-life opportunity for rare earth extraction. He highlighted that the material contains grades above 0.5% TREO, which compares favourably with many ionic clay projects.

Bennett said the streamlined processing route helps support strong project economics. “Most traditional rare earth mining projects have geological risk and mining risk… we start with a direct acid leach and then go into continuous ion exchange,” he explained, noting that these advantages contribute to EBITDA margins of around 69–70%.

Rainbow is developing the project alongside global fertiliser producer Mosaic, with a proposed 51% Mosaic and 49% Rainbow joint venture structure following a successful pre-feasibility study. The partnership also provides access to existing infrastructure and a brownfield industrial site, which Bennett said could accelerate development timelines.

The company is targeting production by 2030, an unusually fast timeline for rare earth projects.

      <title>Great Southern Copper CEO on high-grade copper at Mostaza discovery</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Great Southern Copper PLC (LSE:GSCU, FRA:E9E) CEO Sam Garrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest drilling results at the Mostaza discovery within its Cerro Negro project in Chile. Garrett discussed a new drill hole intersecting copper grades of up to 6.55%, alongside strong silver values, highlighting the continued success of the company’s exploration program.

Garrett said the result confirms a significant step-out from earlier drilling and supports the company’s geological model along the Mostaza fault trend. The hole was drilled roughly 400 metres south of previous drilling, demonstrating that the same style of mineralisation continues beyond the historic Mostaza pit.

The drilling also indicates that mineralisation extends over a growing strike length. Garrett explained that the results show consistent geological architecture between new drill holes and earlier intersections beneath the Mostaza pit, strengthening the company’s confidence that multiple zones could ultimately be linked.

“We’re seeing the same architecture in the new holes for 300 metres to the south of the Mostaza pit, but now mineralisation has extended over 400 metres in strike length,” Garrett said.

The latest drilling has also revealed stacked zones containing copper, silver, lead and zinc mineralisation. According to Garrett, this confirms earlier geological interpretations and suggests a consistent mineralised system, although the structure has been affected by faulting and diking.

Looking ahead, the company plans to continue drilling through its fully funded Phase 4 program, targeting extensions of mineralisation further south under shallow cover while also completing infill drilling between existing holes and the Mostaza pit.

      <description><![CDATA[Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Management chairman Steven Marshall talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategy, portfolio performance and growth outlook alongside Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Ltd (LSE:CORD, FRA:86L) CFO Andrew Ewe.

Marshall discussed the strategic importance of the company’s plan to migrate its listing to the UK Official List and potentially enter the FTSE 250. The move is expected to increase visibility and accessibility for investors. He explained that after nearly five years of building a diversified portfolio and delivering strong growth, the company believes it has the track record to support the transition.

Ewe also highlighted key figures from the company’s trading update, noting strong operational performance across the portfolio. Revenue for the nine months to December rose 8.9% while EBITDA increased 7.1%, supported by new contracts, inflation-linked revenues and recent acquisitions. Dividend coverage remains robust at 1.8 times adjusted funds from operations.

The discussion also covered strategic investments and developments across the portfolio, including the acquisition of Nangu.TV  in the IPTV and OTT streaming sector and progress on a flagship 26-megawatt data centre development near Prague. According to Ewe, the group also maintains strong financial flexibility with approximately £241 million in liquidity available for further investment.

Looking at the broader sector, Marshall emphasised that digital infrastructure continues to benefit from structural growth drivers such as remote working, fibre connectivity, cloud computing and the rapid rise of artificial intelligence. As Marshall explained, “we are in a sector which is almost intuitively quite high growth.”

He added that demand for mobile networks, fibre connectivity and data centre capacity is accelerating as AI and digital services continue expanding globally.

      <title>Solvonis Therapeutics CEO on SVN-114 and PTSD market opportunity</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Solvonis Therapeutics PLC (LSE:SVNS) CEO Anthony Tennyson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s decision to select SVN-114 as the lead candidate in its post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) discovery programme and the opportunity the therapy could present if successfully developed.

Tennyson explained that the decision followed pharmacological studies conducted by Evotec, which showed that SVN-114 provides balanced modulation across several important neurological systems. According to Tennyson, the compound influences serotonin, dopamine and noradrenaline receptors, which are all associated with mood, emotional processing and social behaviour. These systems play a significant role in the brain mechanisms involved in PTSD.

He said the results were reviewed by the company’s scientific advisory committee, led by Professor David Nutt, which agreed that SVN-114 should be progressed as the lead candidate in the program. Tennyson explained that PTSD is a complex disorder involving multiple interconnected brain systems rather than a single pathway.

The CEO highlighted the scale of the market opportunity, noting that PTSD affects more than 20 million people across the US, the UK and key European markets, while treatment options remain limited. Tennyson said: “If compounds like SVN-114 can demonstrate meaningful clinical benefits, then there's obviously a substantial opportunity to improve outcomes for patients and also to create value for the company and very importantly, for shareholders.”

SVN-114 comes from a novel chemical series discovered by Solvonis and is supported by composition-of-matter patents, providing a strong intellectual property foundation for future development. The company is now focused on completing the remaining preclinical work required to support clinical development while pursuing non-dilutive grant funding in the UK and US.

      <title>Ilika CEO on delivery of first commercial Stereax electrodes to Cirtec Medical</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a major milestone for the company as it delivered its first commercial batch of Stereax electrodes to manufacturing partner Cirtec Medical. The development represents an important step in Ilika’s transition from a technology development company to a commercial supplier in the fast-growing medical device battery market.

Purdy explained that the order marks the company’s first revenue-generating product supply for Stereax technology, signalling early progress on the path to commercialisation. As Purdy noted, “what we're announcing today is that we've fulfilled that initial order. So it's our first revenue-generating… order from Cirtec on the path to commercialisation.”

The Stereax solid-state batteries are designed for a wide range of miniaturised medical devices. Purdy highlighted growing interest from manufacturers developing implanted sensors used to monitor patient health metrics such as blood pressure and oxygen levels. More advanced applications include neurostimulators that connect to the peripheral nervous system, delivering precise electrical signals to help manage conditions or alleviate chronic pain.

Beyond these areas, Ilika is also seeing potential demand in orthopaedic implants, orthodontic wearables and emerging ophthalmology devices. Purdy described the broader opportunity as part of the “electroceutical revolution,” where highly specialised medical devices increasingly complement or replace traditional pharmaceuticals.

With the first commercial delivery completed, Ilika is now focused on establishing a regular supply of electrodes from its UK facility to Cirtec, supporting scaling production as demand grows.

      <title>Rome Resources CEO on low-cost New Brunswick tin opportunity</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's decision to expand its exploration portfolio into Canada through an option agreement covering early-stage licences in New Brunswick, close to the historic Mount Pleasant deposit.

Barrett explained that while Rome Resources remains primarily focused on advancing its tin projects in the Democratic Republic of Congo, the company was attracted to the geological potential of the New Brunswick region. The licences cover more than 100 square kilometres and include the Three Lakes and Schoullar Mountain projects, positioned within a mineralised system known for tin as well as other critical minerals.

He highlighted that the geology in the area hosts high-grade tin mineralisation alongside metals such as indium and tungsten, which are considered strategically important for modern technologies. Barrett noted that Mount Pleasant itself is a significant deposit and a key geological reference point in the region.

Rome Resources plans to begin by analysing existing data and conducting initial fieldwork to better understand the geology and structural controls of the licences. Potential drilling could follow at a later stage once targets are defined.

Barrett emphasised that the Canadian opportunity will not distract from Rome Resources’ ongoing exploration work in the DRC, which remains the company’s primary focus as it continues drilling for tin.

The licences cover more than 100 square kilometres and include the Three Lakes and Schoullar Mountain projects, positioned within a mineralised system known for tin as well as other critical minerals.

He highlighted that the geology in the area hosts high-grade tin mineralisation alongside metals such as indium and tungsten, which are considered strategically important for modern technologies. Barrett noted that Mount Pleasant itself is a significant deposit and a key geological reference point in the region.

Rome Resources plans to begin by analysing existing data and conducting initial fieldwork to better understand the geology and structural controls of the licences. Potential drilling could follow at a later stage once targets are defined.

Barrett emphasised that the Canadian opportunity will not distract from Rome Resources’ ongoing exploration work in the DRC, which remains the company’s primary focus as it continues drilling for tin.

      <title>Coiled Therapeutics&apos; Dr Sotirios Stergiopoulos on Roquefort RTO, AO-252 cancer trial update</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Coiled Therapeutics (AIM:COIL) co-founder and incoming executive chair Dr Sotirios Stergiopoulos talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s planned market debut via a reverse takeover by Roquefort Therapeutics PLC (LSE:ROQ) and the progress of its clinical-stage oncology asset AO-252.

Stergiopoulos explained that the transaction will see A2A Pharmaceuticals license AO-252 to Roquefort Therapeutics, with the combined entity eventually adopting the Coiled Therapeutics name. The deal also includes an £8.5 million capital raise, with the majority of the funds allocated to advancing the ongoing clinical study of AO-252.

The company’s immediate focus is expanding the current Phase 1 trial, with the goal of reaching 30 to 50 patients by mid-Q3 2026, which will help determine the drug’s maximum tolerated dose and further validate its safety profile. Early clinical observations have already shown encouraging signs, including tumour reductions.

Stergiopoulos highlighted the importance of the drug’s safety data, particularly when compared with many existing oncology treatments. According to Stergiopoulos, the study has shown “a tremendous safety profile”, with no significant bone marrow or liver toxicity issues reported so far. This strong safety profile could allow longer treatment durations and open the door for combination therapies.

Looking ahead, the company sees significant potential for AO-252 in cancers such as prostate and ovarian cancer, as well as other solid tumour indications. Stergiopoulos noted the broader ambition of the therapy, saying: “To be able to potentially replace chemotherapy out there would be amazing.”

Upcoming clinical milestones and data expected in 2026 could also support discussions with larger pharmaceutical partners as the program advances.

      <title>Pan African Resources CEO Cobus Loots says Emmerson acquisition will accelerate Tennant development</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pan African Resources PLC (LSE:PAF, OTCQX:PAFRY, JSE:PAN) CEO Cobus Loots talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s decision to acquire Emmerson Resources and move to full ownership of the Tennant Creek gold project in Australia. Loots explained that consolidating the asset under one entity removes the complexities of the joint venture and allows Pan African to accelerate development and exploration across the highly prospective district.

Pan African already owns 75% of the Tennant Creek joint venture, and Loots said bringing Emmerson into the group simplifies the structure and provides strategic flexibility for future growth. According to Loots, exploration success has already highlighted the potential of the area, particularly the White Devil deposit. He noted that the discovery has proven highly promising, saying it has “turned out to be more than a half a million ounces at very attractive grades.”

The acquisition also gives Pan African exposure to additional resources while eliminating certain penalty and royalty payments that were previously payable to Emmerson. Loots added that the company now controls around 1,700 square kilometres of prospective ground, with geophysical surveys identifying at least ten additional anomalies similar to White Devil, pointing to strong exploration upside.

The deal structure will involve a scheme of arrangement requiring shareholder approval from Emmerson investors later this year. Pan African also plans to pursue a listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), which Loots believes could be well received by Australian investors following the company’s engagement with major institutions during a recent roadshow.

Watch the full interview with Proactive to hear Cobus Loots discuss the strategic rationale for the transaction, exploration opportunities at Tennant Creek, and key milestones investors should watch as the deal progresses.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain Technologies CEO on bitcoin mining rig milestone, next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest progress in deploying its technology for bitcoin mining, including receiving its first mining rig and the integration of its Method C AI Oracle.

Gardin explained that the rig is currently undergoing testing in Oregon before being shipped to the company’s Milan laboratory. The testing process ensures the system meets specifications before it is transported internationally. According to Gardin, “right now the mining rig is in Oregon and is being tested by our staff there… and we are about to ship it today or tomorrow.”

Once the rig arrives in Milan, the company will focus on integrating the Method C AI Oracle software with the ASIC mining hardware. Gardin described how the Oracle can work with different ASIC systems, although the data used to train the model varies depending on the specific chip architecture.

He also outlined how the company’s research and development team has refined the Method C approach by extracting key information from block headers that remains consistent during mining processes. This enables the AI model to make predictions while using less data than previously expected, a development Gardin described as “an outstanding piece of work” from the R&D team.

Seven members of the company’s R&D team have been prioritised to complete the integration work. Gardin noted that early testing and manufacturing of the ASIC-based system could take around four to six weeks, although timing may vary due to the complexities of new software and hardware development.

      <title>Fineqia International&apos;s Matteo Greco on crypto ETP outflows: market reset or bear phase?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ) senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s February report on crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs), which revealed a sharp decline in assets under management during the month amid broader weakness in the digital asset market.

Greco explained that crypto ETP AUM dropped around 21% in February, marking the steepest monthly decline since mid-2022. However, he stressed that the drop was largely driven by market price movements rather than significant investor withdrawals. A key factor was the timing mismatch between crypto markets and ETP trading hours, as a major sell-off occurred during the final weekend of January while ETP markets were closed.

Greco said: “February was a little bit of a catch-up month from an ETP point of view because there was a strong sell-off happening in the last weekend of January.”

The report shows that while total AUM has fallen more than 25% year-to-date, actual investor outflows remained limited. In fact, the final week of February recorded more than $1 billion in net inflows, mainly into Bitcoin ETPs.

Greco also noted that Bitcoin ETP assets falling below the $100 billion mark could carry psychological significance for institutional investors, though recent price rebounds and inflows suggest demand remains resilient. Ethereum ETPs experienced the largest decline in February, reflecting broader weakness in altcoins despite strong institutional demand since the launch of spot Ethereum ETFs in July 2024.

Looking ahead, Greco believes the next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether the recent downturn represents a temporary correction or the early stages of a bear market.

      <itunes:title>Fineqia International&apos;s Matteo Greco on crypto ETP outflows: market reset or bear phase?</itunes:title>

      <itunes:summary>Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ) senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s February report on crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs), which revealed a sharp decline in assets under management during the month amid broader weakness in the digital asset market.

Greco explained that crypto ETP AUM dropped around 21% in February, marking the steepest monthly decline since mid-2022. However, he stressed that the drop was largely driven by market price movements rather than significant investor withdrawals. A key factor was the timing mismatch between crypto markets and ETP trading hours, as a major sell-off occurred during the final weekend of January while ETP markets were closed.

Greco said: “February was a little bit of a catch-up month from an ETP point of view because there was a strong sell-off happening in the last weekend of January.”

The report shows that while total AUM has fallen more than 25% year-to-date, actual investor outflows remained limited. In fact, the final week of February recorded more than $1 billion in net inflows, mainly into Bitcoin ETPs.

Greco also noted that Bitcoin ETP assets falling below the $100 billion mark could carry psychological significance for institutional investors, though recent price rebounds and inflows suggest demand remains resilient. Ethereum ETPs experienced the largest decline in February, reflecting broader weakness in altcoins despite strong institutional demand since the launch of spot Ethereum ETFs in July 2024.

Looking ahead, Greco believes the next few weeks will be crucial in determining whether the recent downturn represents a temporary correction or the early stages of a bear market.

      <title>AI event tech demand surging says Nextech3D.ai CEO, as client wins rack up</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.AI (CSE:NTAR, OTCQX:NEXCF, FRA:1SS) CEO Evan Gappelberg talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong start to 2026, highlighting accelerating enterprise adoption of its AI-powered event technology platform and growing demand for AI-driven event infrastructure.

Gappelberg explained that the company has already signed dozens of new customer contracts early in the year, reflecting strong momentum in the market. Importantly, these agreements represent new customers, while Nextech3D.ai continues to generate additional revenue from renewals and expansions within its existing client base.

He told Proactive that adoption trends are shifting as enterprise clients move beyond testing the platform and begin implementing it more broadly across their operations. According to Gappelberg, “the big takeaway is that demand for AI powered event infrastructure is growing, and it's growing rapidly.”

The CEO also highlighted that the company’s average deal size increased significantly year over year, suggesting customers are committing to larger deployments. He noted that the company believes there is still significant room for expansion as it rolls out additional enterprise-focused products.

Gappelberg discussed the broader opportunity in the global events industry, which he described as a $1.5 trillion market where much of the technology currently used by event organizers remains outdated. Nextech3D.ai’s platform aims to address this by using artificial intelligence to automate event planning, improve attendee matchmaking, enhance exhibitor return on investment and deliver deeper analytics.

Looking ahead, the company plans to focus on continued enterprise customer growth, increasing deal sizes and expanding product offerings, including blockchain-based ticketing solutions designed to strengthen its platform ecosystem.

      <title>Ideal Power CEO discusses B-TRAN market opportunity following strong end to 2025</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ideal Power Inc (NASDAQ:IPWR, FRA:5ILA) CEO David Somo talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategy to accelerate the commercialization of its B-TRAN technology and the key opportunities emerging across multiple high-growth markets.

Somo explained that one of the first priorities since stepping into the CEO role has been strengthening the company’s commercial infrastructure. Ideal Power is expanding its global sales capability, including the addition of a sales leader in Asia and plans to add another applications manager in the region. The company is also recruiting a European sales leader to support multinational customers and those with development operations based in Europe.

Alongside internal expansion, Ideal Power is leveraging global distribution partners to broaden customer engagement and technical support for B-TRAN integration. According to Somo, this approach allows the company to effectively multiply its reach with potential customers. As he noted, “we're working closely with our global distribution partners to be able to effectively multiply our ability to engage with customers.”

The discussion also highlighted a strategic partnership with Lazzen focused on solid-state circuit breakers targeting AI data centers. Somo described the addressable market as substantial, saying early applications alone could represent “several hundred million dollars, growing to north of $1 billion over the next 3 to 4 years.”

Somo also provided an update on Ideal Power’s development work with Stellantis involving custom-packaged B-TRAN devices designed for electric vehicle contactor applications. Looking ahead, investors should watch for growing qualified opportunities in the company’s sales pipeline and customer products moving through qualification toward potential commercialization later in 2026.

      <title>Fast Track Group expands strategy into artist management and global tours</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fast Track Group CEO Harris Lim joined Steve Darling from Proactive o discuss the company’s evolving strategy as it transitions from a traditional concert organiser into a broader entertainment media and tour management business.

Fast Track Group, which listed on Nasdaq in May 2025, initially built its reputation organising live concerts across Asia. Lim explained that the company is now repositioning itself to capture larger opportunities within the global entertainment sector by expanding into artist management, brand partnerships, and international tour development.

“We don't just want to bring a one once, one time, one off concert into every country that we go into, we want to be more involved in the entertainment spectrum,” Lim said. He added that the company aims to act as a bridge between markets by “bringing Asia to the world and the world to Asia.”

A key step in executing this strategy is Fast Track Group’s new two-year agreement with emerging South Korean K-pop girl group KIIRAS. Under the partnership, the company will work to build the group’s brand awareness, connect it with commercial partners, and prepare for a potential international concert tour later this year.

Lim noted that many new artists struggle to secure exposure and meaningful brand partnerships early in their careers. Fast Track Group aims to address that gap by leveraging its network and experience across global entertainment markets.

Looking ahead, the company plans to expand its roster of talent partnerships while also exploring opportunities in film, intellectual property, and licensing agreements as it seeks to create more scalable and diversified revenue streams.

      <title>Inflation &amp; fixed income: Regan Capital’s strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Regan Capital chief investment officer Skyler Weinand talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about how rising interest rates, inflation, and global volatility are shaping opportunities in the fixed income market, particularly within residential mortgage-backed securities.

Weinand explained that much of the traditional fixed income universe still carries significant interest-rate risk due to longer duration. He noted that the duration on the US. Aggregate fixed income index is around six years, meaning even modest changes in rates can have a meaningful impact on investor portfolios. As Weinand stated, “one percentage point move higher in interest rates equals a 6% loss.”

The discussion also explored how current mortgage rate movements are influencing refinancing activity. Weinand said mortgage rates recently touched the 5% level in the United States, which has already started to increase refinance activity. This trend can benefit investors holding discounted mortgage bonds because faster prepayments allow investors to recover capital more quickly.

Inflation and rate volatility are also shaping Regan Capital’s investment approach. Weinand highlighted the firm’s focus on short-duration and floating-rate mortgage securities, which may benefit in environments where interest rates remain elevated. He also emphasised the importance of government-guaranteed agency securities, which historically have shown lower volatility during market stress.

Referencing events such as the COVID-19 market shock and current geopolitical tensions, Weinand noted that US Treasuries and government-backed securities often outperform more credit-sensitive assets like corporate or municipal bonds during periods of uncertainty.

Regan Capital and HANetf launched the Regan Total Return Income Fund UCITS ETF (ticker: RMBS) in July 2025.

      <itunes:summary>Regan Capital chief investment officer Skyler Weinand talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about how rising interest rates, inflation, and global volatility are shaping opportunities in the fixed income market, particularly within residential mortgage-backed securities.

Weinand explained that much of the traditional fixed income universe still carries significant interest-rate risk due to longer duration. He noted that the duration on the US. Aggregate fixed income index is around six years, meaning even modest changes in rates can have a meaningful impact on investor portfolios. As Weinand stated, “one percentage point move higher in interest rates equals a 6% loss.”

The discussion also explored how current mortgage rate movements are influencing refinancing activity. Weinand said mortgage rates recently touched the 5% level in the United States, which has already started to increase refinance activity. This trend can benefit investors holding discounted mortgage bonds because faster prepayments allow investors to recover capital more quickly.

      <title>Medicus Pharma provides additional Phase 2 data for SkinJect Cancer therapy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide additional details from the company’s Phase 2 clinical study (SKNJCT-003) evaluating the safety and efficacy of its Doxorubicin Microneedle Array (D-MNA) for the non-invasive treatment of Basal Cell Carcinoma. 

The data showed the strongest treatment response in the 200-microgram cohort, which achieved 73% clinical clearance and 40% histological clearance at Day 57. The results highlight the therapeutic potential of the company’s SkinJect platform, which uses microneedle technology to deliver chemotherapy directly into skin lesions without surgery.

According to Medicus Pharma, the findings are particularly notable given the device-based mechanism of SkinJect. The microneedle delivery process itself may produce biological activity, which can contribute to responses even in the placebo arm of the trial. In this study, the placebo microneedle array (P-MNA) was not tip-loaded with the chemotherapeutic agent but could still stimulate a biological response due to the mechanical action of the device.

The company noted that active placebo arms are not uncommon in device-drug combination trials and can be considered an acceptable regulatory data point. Importantly, the results demonstrated a clear separation in treatment response between the D-MNA therapy arm and the placebo microneedle arm in the 200-µg cohort, with clinical clearance rates of 73% and 38% respectively.

Management believes the dataset represents decision-grade evidence supporting the continued advancement of the SkinJect program as a potential non-surgical treatment option for patients with basal cell carcinoma. The company plans to move forward with an End-of-Phase-2 meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to determine the optimal registrational development pathway and explore.

      <title>American Resources expands Rare Earth pre-processing capacity at Indiana Facility</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp Executive Vice President Mark LaVerghetta joined Steve Darling to announce that the company’s subsidiary ReElement Technologies has expanded its pre-processing capabilities with the procurement of additional equipment and processing capacity at its Indiana facility.

The new processing line significantly enhances the capabilities of Electrified Materials Corporation, enabling it to aggregate, process, and condition magnet materials as well as copper, aluminum, and ferrous metals recovered from end-of-life products and manufacturing scrap. These materials include rare earth element (REE) and other critical mineral feedstocks that will be conditioned into optimal forms for refining.

Conditioned rare earth and critical mineral materials will then be supplied to ReElement Technologies for advanced separation, purification, and refining into ultra-high-purity rare earth oxides. Those refined materials are ultimately delivered to downstream manufacturing partners serving electrification, defense, and advanced manufacturing markets.

LaVerghetta told Proactive the expansion comes in response to rising volumes of recycled feedstocks being received by EMCO as well as increasing market demand for domestically produced, high-purity rare earth oxides.

The near-term expansion is expected to be supported through a private capital raise at the subsidiary level under Regulation D, along with previously announced recycling grant initiatives from the State of Indiana.

The capital raise is also intended to support the continued scaling of EMCO’s processing capacity ahead of a planned spin-off of Electrified Materials into a stand-alone publicly listed company on a national exchange.

      <title>London BTC CEO provides update on gold strategy &amp; Bitcoin hedge</title>
      <description><![CDATA[London BTC Company Ltd (LSE:BTC, OTCQB:VINZF) CEO Hewie Rattray talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategy of adding gold exploration to complement its Bitcoin-focused treasury and mining operations. Rattray explained how the company is positioning itself to navigate market uncertainty while maintaining its core exposure to Bitcoin.

During the interview, Rattray outlined why London BTC sees gold as a strategic hedge. As he explained, the company remains committed to Bitcoin while also exploring opportunities that could generate new catalysts for investors. He noted that Bitcoin and gold share certain characteristics as alternative assets, saying the two can offer “asymmetric upside with each other.”

A key focus of the discussion was the Chance Gold Mine in Western Australia, where the company recently conducted a site visit this week. Rattray highlighted the early-stage exploration potential in what he described as a “proven gold district.” The company’s chair visited the site to inspect rock samples, which have now been sent to laboratories for analysis. The next milestone for the project will be the results from those assays.

Rattray also discussed how London BTC plans to balance gold exploration with its existing Bitcoin operations. The company funded the early work on the project by selling a small portion of its Bitcoin holdings rather than issuing new equity. According to Rattray, this approach helped the company progress the project without diluting shareholders at current share price levels.

Looking ahead, London BTC is pursuing a three-pronged strategy that includes gold exploration, Bitcoin holdings, and Bitcoin mining revenue. The company is also considering new gold prospects in the United States while continuing to expand its Bitcoin mining fleet as market conditions improve.

He noted that Bitcoin and gold share certain characteristics as alternative assets, saying the two can offer “asymmetric upside with each other.”

A key focus of the discussion was the Chance Gold Mine in Western Australia, where the company recently conducted a site visit this week. Rattray highlighted the early-stage exploration potential in what he described as a “proven gold district.” The company’s chair visited the site to inspect rock samples, which have now been sent to laboratories for analysis. The next milestone for the project will be the results from those assays.

Rattray also discussed how London BTC plans to balance gold exploration with its existing Bitcoin operations. The company funded the early work on the project by selling a small portion of its Bitcoin holdings rather than issuing new equity. According to Rattray, this approach helped the company progress the project without diluting shareholders at current share price levels.

Looking ahead, London BTC is pursuing a three-pronged strategy that includes gold exploration, Bitcoin holdings, and Bitcoin mining revenue. The company is also considering new gold prospects in the United States while continuing to expand its Bitcoin mining fleet as market conditions improve.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai expands into new event verticals, raises enterprise pricing</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has expanded its technology into new event market verticals while implementing a 20%–30% enterprise price increase across select offerings. Management believes these strategic moves will help drive revenue growth, improve operating efficiency, and support the company’s path toward sustained profitability.

Gappelberg explained that Nextech3D.ai operates a unified, AI-driven Events Operating System that integrates event registration, ticketing, interactive mapping, engagement analytics, and AI automation for in-person, virtual, and hybrid events. By broadening the platform’s reach, the company believes it can significantly expand its total addressable market within the global events industry while leveraging its existing AI infrastructure.

Historically, Nextech3D.ai’s Map Dynamics (Map D) platform focused primarily on indoor trade shows and convention-center-based events. The company has now extended its AI-powered event technology platform into additional verticals including outdoor fairs and expos, music festivals, state-run events, and community-based gatherings.

In parallel with this market expansion, Nextech3D.ai has implemented a 20%–30% enterprise price increase across select offerings. Management said the pricing adjustment reflects the increasing value delivered by its AI-enabled, enterprise-grade event platform. Because the company’s technology infrastructure is already built and operating at scale, Nextech3D.ai expects the incremental revenue generated from the pricing changes to require minimal additional operating expense.

While the company notes that no assurances can be provided, management believes the pricing strategy may contribute to improved operating performance and accelerate Nextech3D.ai’s progress toward profitability as revenue continues to scale.

      <title>Medicus Pharma reports positive phase 2 results for microneedle skin cancer treatment</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has released topline results from its Phase 2 clinical study (SKNJCT-003) evaluating the safety and efficacy of its Doxorubicin Microneedle Array (D-MNA) for the non-invasive treatment of basal cell carcinoma of the skin.

The company believes the topline data are not only positive but “decision-grade,” meaning they could support an End-of-Phase 2 (EOP2) meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the first half of 2026 and help accelerate potential partnering discussions.

Bokhari explained that the SKNJCT-003 clinical trial was designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study involving 90 patients diagnosed with nodular basal cell carcinoma. The trial compared two dose levels of the D-MNA treatment with a placebo microneedle array control to assess both safety and therapeutic effectiveness.

According to the results, clearance rates improved between Day 29 and Day 57, suggesting continued biological activity of the treatment over time. The higher-dose 200 microgram cohort demonstrated the strongest response by Day 57, achieving a 73% clinical clearance rate and a 40% histological clearance rate.

The reported findings reflect analysis of the study’s primary and key secondary efficacy endpoints. Medicus Pharma noted that the final Clinical Study Report, which will include full safety analyses and additional procedural observations such as post-excisional biopsy site assessments, is still being compiled and is expected to be completed in the second quarter of 2026.

While the final report remains in progress, the company said it does not anticipate any material changes to the efficacy findings reported in the topline results.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain Technologies CEO on ASIC Ultraboost &amp; US patent progress</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT, FRA:BYA1) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest progress surrounding its patent portfolio and the potential impact of its ASIC Ultraboost technology on Bitcoin mining efficiency.

During the interview, Gardin explained how patent applications can already be used by a company even before they are formally granted. He noted that once an invention is filed, companies can develop products around the technology and mark them as “patent pending,” which signals to competitors that copying the idea could lead to infringement if the patent is eventually granted.

The discussion also focused on the importance of the United States market, which Gardin described as the largest market for Bitcoin mining. Quantum Blockchain Technologies currently has its ASIC Ultraboost patent application in the final stage of examination in the US, a key step in the patent approval process. 

Gardin highlighted that discussions with patent examiners over the wording of claims represent an important milestone, although approval is not guaranteed.

Gardin outlined how ASIC chip manufacturers have historically improved performance by shrinking chip sizes to increasingly smaller nanometer scales. However, he pointed out that there are limits to how far this approach can go. QBT is instead targeting algorithmic improvements to the SHA-256 hashing process, which underpins Bitcoin mining. According to Gardin, the company’s approach could deliver an efficiency improvement of between 8% and 12%, a potentially meaningful advantage in a highly competitive sector.

He also noted that Quantum Blockchain Technologies continues to develop additional intellectual property through its team of researchers as part of its ongoing R&D activities.

      <title>Valereum CEO on OTCQB trading &amp; path to Nasdaq listing</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ, OTCQB:VLRMF) CEO Gary Cottle talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s decision to begin cross-trading on the OTCQB market in the United States, describing it as an important step toward a potential major US exchange listing.

Cottle explained that expanding access to US investors is part of the company’s broader strategy as it builds toward a possible Nasdaq or NYSE listing. The move gives Valereum greater visibility with American investors while the business continues to develop the scale and revenue base needed for a larger listing.

During the interview, Cottle outlined the key milestones Valereum is working toward before pursuing a US exchange listing. These include completing the company’s audit process, launching major new products, and ensuring the business generates sustainable revenues.

A central focus is the development of V Gold, a gold-backed token being developed alongside strategic partner QGP, which operates in the commodities royalty and streaming sector. The initiative aims to tokenise the gold value chain, linking exploration, reserves and production with digital assets.

Cottle highlighted the company’s disciplined approach to growth and long-term listing ambitions, stating: “We always said that in order to get on Nasdaq or NYSE and stay there, you've got to have a sustainable business and that equals revenues.”

The company is also working toward creating a liquid bond structure and expanding token-related revenue streams, which Cottle said could generate significant recurring income.
Watch the full interview to hear Gary Cottle discuss Valereum’s US expansion strategy, the upcoming V Gold token, and the roadmap toward a potential Nasdaq or NYSE listing.

      <itunes:summary>Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ, OTCQB:VLRMF) CEO Gary Cottle talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s decision to begin cross-trading on the OTCQB market in the United States, describing it as an important step toward a potential major US exchange listing.

Cottle explained that expanding access to US investors is part of the company’s broader strategy as it builds toward a possible Nasdaq or NYSE listing. The move gives Valereum greater visibility with American investors while the business continues to develop the scale and revenue base needed for a larger listing.

During the interview, Cottle outlined the key milestones Valereum is working toward before pursuing a US exchange listing. These include completing the company’s audit process, launching major new products, and ensuring the business generates sustainable revenues.

A central focus is the development of V Gold, a gold-backed token being developed alongside strategic partner QGP, which operates in the commodities royalty and streaming sector. The initiative aims to tokenise the gold value chain, linking exploration, reserves and production with digital assets.

Cottle highlighted the company’s disciplined approach to growth and long-term listing ambitions, stating: “We always said that in order to get on Nasdaq or NYSE and stay there, you&apos;ve got to have a sustainable business and that equals revenues.”

The company is also working toward creating a liquid bond structure and expanding token-related revenue streams, which Cottle said could generate significant recurring income.
Watch the full interview to hear Gary Cottle discuss Valereum’s US expansion strategy, the upcoming V Gold token, and the roadmap toward a potential Nasdaq or NYSE listing.

      <title>Galliford Try CFO on strong H1, raised 2026 outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Galliford Try Holdings PLC (LSE:GFRD, FRA:3WC) Chief Financial Officer Kris Hampson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong half-year results, upgraded 2026 guidance, and a strategic acquisition in the passive fire protection market.

The UK tier-one construction group reported its 11th consecutive period of half-year revenue and profit growth. Revenue rose 1.3% to nearly £935 million, while adjusted profit before tax increased more than 20% to £24.7 million, significantly ahead of revenue growth. Adjusted operating margin improved to 3.2%, up from 2.7% at the previous half year.

Hampson said: “This is exactly the sort of story that we want to be telling,” highlighting disciplined project selection, improved commercial terms, and a growing contribution from higher-margin specialist services.

The order book increased nearly 5% year-on-year to £4.1 billion, supported by long-term frameworks in public and regulated sectors. Average month-end cash rose 6.3% to nearly £190 million, enabling a dividend increase of almost 18% to approximately 6.5p. The company has no drawn debt and no pension liabilities.

Galliford Try also upgraded expectations for FY26, with revenue and adjusted profit before tax now expected to be above the top end of market forecasts.

Alongside organic investment, the company announced the acquisition of Nene Valley Fire & Acoustics Limited, strengthening its position in the regulation-led passive fire protection market. The acquisition is cash-funded and expected to be margin accretive from year one.

      <title>Infrastructure Capital Advisors&apos; Jay Hatfield on the benefits of listed preferred stocks</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Infrastructure Capital Advisors CIO Jay Hatfield talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about why listed preferred stocks can be attractive for income-focused investors, and how the current interest-rate backdrop may support the asset class. Hatfield explained that, in his view, preferreds tend to benefit during central bank cutting cycles, because investors can capture both coupon income and potential price appreciation back toward par.

He outlined the fund’s focus on US and North American-listed preferred securities, noting that being exchange-listed can mean tighter bid/ask spreads and easier access for investors. Hatfield also contrasted public issuers with private credit markets, saying the company prefers securities issued by public companies that report, protect credit quality, and typically have larger market caps.

Hatfield discussed portfolio construction and risk management, emphasising credit selection, monitoring call features, and positioning across rate regimes (including using floating-rate exposure when rates are rising). He also shared his macro view, arguing that money supply dynamics can be an important signal for inflation and rates, and said: “We are forecasting inflation goes down to 2%. Rates drop… That’s a great environment for preferred.”

He added that the key risk is being wrong on inflation and rates, but highlighted how higher coupons can help offset market volatility over time.

      <title>Buccaneer Energy raises £350K to expand East Texas production</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Buccaneer Energy CEO Paul Welch joined Steve Darling from Proactive to confirm the company has closed a £350,000 fundraise to finance an adjacent producing-well acquisition in East Texas and accelerate its Organic Oil Recovery (OOR) programme.

The raise included participation from institutional investor Premier Miton Group plc, alongside directors, management, and existing shareholders.

Welch said proceeds will fund the acquisition of a 100% working interest in the Carlisle 1 well in the Fouke area of the Pine Mills field for US$425,000. The well is expected to add approximately 25 barrels of oil per day (bopd) net to Buccaneer’s production. Following completion, the company anticipates total net output will increase to roughly 160 bopd, strengthening its position within the proposed Fouke waterflood unit.

Buccaneer also plans to expand its OOR programme across Pine Mills, with services delivered by Hunting PLC. A pilot treatment in the field previously generated a 100% uplift in production within the treated zone, supporting management’s confidence in broader implementation.

The combined acquisition and recovery strategy is aimed at delivering near-term production growth while enhancing the company’s longer-term development potential in East Texas.

      <title>Sintana begins 3D Seismic Survey on AREA OFF-1 Offshore Uruguay</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Sintana Energy President Eytan Uliel joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of a major 3D seismic acquisition campaign on AREA OFF-1, offshore Uruguay.
The AREA OFF-1 survey is being conducted by contractor Viridien using the BGP Prospector seismic vessel and will cover approximately 4,300 square kilometres. The acquisition program is designed to advance understanding of key offshore prospects and support future exploration decisions.

Uliel explained that fieldwork will be carried out over two seasons: February to April 2026 and November 2026 to April 2027. Most of the seismic acquisition relevant to priority prospects is expected to be completed during the first season. Fast-track results from the initial campaign are anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026, with full pre-stack depth migration (PSDM) results expected in the second quarter of 2027.

Sintana holds a 40% non-operated interest in AREA OFF-1 following a 2025 farm-out of a 60% operating stake to an affiliate of Chevron Corporation. Under the agreement, Sintana is carried for the full anticipated cost of the 3D seismic acquisition program.

The company noted that commencement of the seismic campaign follows the rejection by Uruguayan courts of several attempted interventions by activist groups. Management said this outcome underscores the depth of preparatory work completed ahead of the survey and reflects the robustness of Uruguay’s environmental consultation and permitting framework.

Sintana emphasized its continued commitment to conducting all associated operations in compliance with the highest health, safety, and environmental standards as it advances exploration efforts offshore Uruguay.

      <itunes:summary>Sintana Energy President Eytan Uliel joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of a major 3D seismic acquisition campaign on AREA OFF-1, offshore Uruguay.
The AREA OFF-1 survey is being conducted by contractor Viridien using the BGP Prospector seismic vessel and will cover approximately 4,300 square kilometres. The acquisition program is designed to advance understanding of key offshore prospects and support future exploration decisions.

Uliel explained that fieldwork will be carried out over two seasons: February to April 2026 and November 2026 to April 2027. Most of the seismic acquisition relevant to priority prospects is expected to be completed during the first season. Fast-track results from the initial campaign are anticipated in the fourth quarter of 2026, with full pre-stack depth migration (PSDM) results expected in the second quarter of 2027.

Sintana holds a 40% non-operated interest in AREA OFF-1 following a 2025 farm-out of a 60% operating stake to an affiliate of Chevron Corporation. Under the agreement, Sintana is carried for the full anticipated cost of the 3D seismic acquisition program.

The company noted that commencement of the seismic campaign follows the rejection by Uruguayan courts of several attempted interventions by activist groups. Management said this outcome underscores the depth of preparatory work completed ahead of the survey and reflects the robustness of Uruguay’s environmental consultation and permitting framework.

Sintana emphasized its continued commitment to conducting all associated operations in compliance with the highest health, safety, and environmental standards as it advances exploration efforts offshore Uruguay.

      <title>Lamington Project drill results grow Copper potential</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Visionary Copper and Gold Mines CEO Max Porterfield joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s ongoing exploration work at the Lamington Project in New Zealand and the encouraging results emerging from its latest drilling program.

Porterfield highlighted that Lamington hosts a sizable near-surface deposit containing gold, copper, zinc and silver, which offers strong potential for expansion. The company recently initiated its first modern exploration campaign on the property in roughly two decades, aiming to significantly grow the existing resource base.

Early drilling results have already delivered promising outcomes. The program successfully extended the strike length of the central portion of the deposit to the south while also identifying a new mineralized zone known as the Copper Ridge zone. Importantly, this new discovery lies adjacent to the current resource and outside the model pit, which Porterfield noted is an ideal location for additional resource growth.

Initial drilling intersected broad intervals of copper mineralization across approximately 100 metres, marking what Porterfield described as just the beginning of exploration in the area. As he explained, “it always starts one hole that leads to many more holes… it’s really a drill-baby-drill type of environment.”

Looking ahead, Visionary Copper and Gold Mines Inc plans to launch a more aggressive Phase 2 drilling program in the spring following winter conditions. The work will focus on expanding the newly discovered Copper Ridge zone and collecting metallurgical samples for a two-phase testing program. These efforts are expected to support a resource update and potentially lead to the publication of a maiden resource estimate for the property, possibly as early as 2027.

      <title>Surge Battery Metals advances High-Grade Nevada Lithium project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Surge Battery Metals Vice President, Commercial Development Steffen Ball joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s latest progress at its Nevada lithium project and the strategic developments driving its growth.

Ball highlighted renewed optimism across the mining sector, particularly in critical minerals, noting stronger engagement from governments and industry stakeholders. He said the energy at this year’s event reflects growing recognition of the importance of securing supply chains for key battery materials.
Ball recently joined Surge Battery Metals after working in the automotive industry, including roles with major manufacturers. He explained that this background provides valuable insight into the downstream battery supply chain and the role lithium plays in electric vehicles.

“I understand the value chain — where the lithium goes once it’s produced out of the ground. It needs to go through this very complicated supply chain before it’s in batteries and into a vehicle,” Ball said.
During the interview, Ball also discussed the company’s operational progress in Nevada. Surge Battery Metals recently signed a joint venture with Evolution Mining, bringing an experienced mining partner into the project area. At the same time, the company has been advancing drilling work focused primarily on infill drilling to strengthen its mineral resource, along with step-out drilling that continues to return high-grade lithium results.

The company expects to update its mineral resource in the coming months and has begun work on its first pre-feasibility study, being conducted with engineering firm Fluor, with results targeted toward the end of the year.

      <title>Royal Road Minerals CEO on Colombia drill results pending</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Royal Road Minerals CEO Dr. Tim Coughlin joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s exploration progress in Colombia, including current drilling activities and the broader strategy that has shaped Royal Road’s presence in the country.

During the interview, Coughlin explained that Royal Road Minerals has built its Colombian portfolio over several years, beginning with the company’s entry into the country around 2015, just before the 2016 peace process. He noted that the company worked closely with government initiatives and local communities as it established exploration projects across prospective mineral regions.

The company later strengthened its position by acquiring exploration assets from AngloGold Ashanti in 2019, which helped Royal Road expand its land holdings. Coughlin said this has made Royal Road one of the largest title application holders in the country.

Current exploration is focused on projects in Antioquia where the company has previously identified significant mineralisation. According to Coughlin, earlier drilling intersected long zones of copper, gold and silver mineralisation, including “pretty significant intersections… well beyond 300 metres.”

Royal Road Minerals has now resumed drilling after a key title was granted in December, allowing the company to continue testing the system. Coughlin said the team is seeing similar mineralised characteristics in the current program while working to define the scale of the target.

He also highlighted a newly announced memorandum of understanding with the governor of Nariño province aimed at supporting exploration access while formalising informal mining activity in the region.

Coughlin said the district represents a largely underexplored section of the Andes with significant geological potential.

      <title>Riverside Resources: Copper, Gold &amp; Rare Earth strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Riverside Resources Inc CDA CEO John-Mark Staude joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the strong momentum the company is seeing at the PDAC conference and how its project generator model is creating opportunities across multiple commodities.

Speaking from the conference floor, Staude highlighted the positive industry sentiment and how that environment benefits Riverside’s partnership-driven strategy. He explained that when activity picks up in the mining sector, it often translates into more deal flow for the company. As he put it, “when there's a buzz in the air as a generator company, we get lots of deals.”

Staude discussed Riverside’s diversified portfolio, which includes copper, gold, silver and rare earth element projects across Mexico and Canada. He pointed to work on porphyry copper systems in Mexico as a key focus, while also noting the company’s growing activity in rare earth elements in British Columbia.

One near-term catalyst highlighted in the interview is work at the Union Project in Sonora, Mexico, where Riverside is partnered with Questcorp. Preparations are underway for drilling, with a campaign expected within the next two months and results anticipated in the following quarters.

The conversation also touched on Riverside’s strategic transactions designed to unlock shareholder value. Staude referenced the company’s approach of spinning out assets into new entities, retaining royalties while allowing shareholders direct exposure to projects in regions such as Ontario and the Yukon.

He also noted the continued support of long-term shareholders and investors, including strong backing from European investors and a cornerstone investment that reinforces confidence in Riverside’s long-term strategy.

      <title>Q2 Metals advances Cisco Lithium project toward maiden resource</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Q2 Metals VP Exploration Neil McCallum joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news the company’s advancing lithium exploration at the Cisco project in the James Bay region of Quebec and the progress toward its first resource estimate.

McCallum explained that the discovery at James Bay is relatively recent, with major exploration momentum building since 2022–2023. With lithium market conditions beginning to strengthen again, the company is now working toward a key milestone: publishing its initial mineral resource estimate.

McCallum said the company has already completed the drilling required for the upcoming estimate, with a data cut-off at the end of December. However, exploration activity continues as Q2 Metals carries out further drilling designed to expand and infill the deposit.

He highlighted encouraging drilling results that have identified high-grade lithium zones. As the drilling grid becomes tighter, these zones are beginning to show continuity across the project area.

“This is a very large target for drilling,” McCallum said, noting that the discovery could rank among the top five to ten hard-rock lithium deposits by size.

The mineralization at the project is hosted in hard-rock pegmatites, which are known for producing high-grade lithium deposits. The James Bay region is also considered a favourable mining jurisdiction thanks to strong geology and existing infrastructure.

According to McCallum, Q2 Metals’ exploration target suggests the initial resource could fall within 250 to 329 million tonnes, which could make it one of the largest lithium resources in the James Bay region.

      <title>Uranium Exploration update: Purepoint drills Dorado in Northern Saskatchewan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Purepoint Uranium Group CEO Chris Frostad joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s exploration activity in northern Saskatchewan and how Purepoint is positioning itself to benefit from renewed momentum in the uranium market.

Speaking from a busy industry convention, Frostad described growing excitement around uranium as prices strengthened earlier in the year. He explained that Purepoint Uranium Group Inc has spent many years building a strong exploration portfolio in the Athabasca Basin, giving the company a solid foundation as the sector enters what he believes could be an important period for the commodity.

Frostad noted that the company currently has around nine or ten projects in northern Saskatchewan, many of which have attracted strategic partners. According to Frostad, the long-term approach has enabled Purepoint Uranium Group Inc to secure extensive land holdings and advance projects to drill-ready status.

A key focus is the Dorado project, a joint venture with IsoEnergy covering nearly 100,000 hectares along the Mine Trend in the northern Athabasca Basin. Frostad highlighted that Purepoint Uranium Group Inc is the operator of the 50-50 partnership and recently began advancing the project following compilation of geological data from both companies.

Early drilling results have already generated interest. Frostad said the team “managed to tap into some pretty high grade mineralization right out of the gate,” prompting further drilling programs planned through the winter and summer seasons.

He also discussed the company’s partnership model, including long-standing collaborations with Cameco and other industry players. The approach allows Purepoint Uranium Group Inc to advance multiple exploration programs while sharing costs and reducing shareholder dilution.

      <title>Prince Silver Corp drills new silver-gold zones in Nevada</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Prince Silver Corp CEO Derek Iwanaka joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s ongoing drilling programme at the Prince Project in Nevada and how rising precious metal prices are renewing interest in historic silver districts.

Iwanaka highlighted Nevada’s long history as the “Silver State,” noting that the Prince Project was a past-producing mine that operated between 1912 and 1949. The operation shut down due to low metal prices rather than a lack of remaining material, leaving potential resources behind that may now be economic at today’s higher silver prices.

Iwanaka explained that Prince Silver Corp has been drilling at the project for the past three months and has made encouraging discoveries. The drilling programme has identified two distinct mineralised horizons. The upper layer contains silver and manganese mineralisation, while a deeper zone has revealed higher-grade gold that had not previously been identified at the historic mine.

According to Iwanaka, the company is optimistic about the potential scale of the project as drilling continues. As he noted in the interview, “we've been doing some drilling for the last three months, and we've actually made discovery a whole bunch of new mineralisation that I don't think was ever considered back then.”

Prince Silver Corp is targeting a resource estimate potentially later this year. If drilling progresses smoothly, Iwanaka said the company could release a resource estimate as early as July, though additional drilling could push the timeline into the fourth quarter.

The company is well funded to advance exploration, with approximately $8 million in the treasury following a recent financing, supporting continued drilling and potential additional phases.

      <description><![CDATA[Premier American Uranium CEO Colin Healy joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s strategy to build a leading portfolio of uranium assets in the United States and the progress it is making across key projects in Wyoming and New Mexico.

Healey explained that the company was spun out in 2023 during a period of heightened geopolitical focus on energy security, particularly in the United States. This environment created an opportunity to assemble a portfolio of domestic uranium assets as the country seeks greater energy independence.

Premier American Uranium has since focused on consolidating and advancing uranium projects in the southwestern United States. The company’s New Mexico project is emerging as a key asset following a recent preliminary economic analysis. Healey highlighted the scale of the opportunity, noting the project could become “one of the biggest source uranium projects potentially.”

In Wyoming, the company expanded its presence through acquisitions that significantly increased its land position. The project was the subject of one of the largest uranium drilling programs in the United States last year and remains a major focus as the company continues exploration and resource development.

Looking ahead to 2026, Premier American Uranium recently completed a $50 million bought-deal financing, providing capital to advance both the New Mexico and Wyoming assets. Healey also outlined metallurgical testing aimed at increasing recovery rates, which could significantly improve project economics.

The company also benefits from strong institutional backing from several major uranium investors and industry participants.

      <title>North Peak Resources plans major drill Campaign 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[North Peak Resources CEO Rupert Williams joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s advancing work at the Prospect Mountain project in Nevada, a historic mining district that the company believes holds significant untapped gold potential.

Williams explained that North Peak recently secured 100% ownership of the Prospect Mountain complex, acquiring the asset from the Erickson family in a deal involving 8 million shares. The project sits in the well-known Eureka mining district, an area with a long production history but limited modern exploration over the past four decades.

According to Williams, the lack of recent exploration presents a major opportunity. The company has begun applying modern exploration techniques and has already identified several promising targets. A key focus is a large geophysical anomaly located below the water table, which measures roughly two kilometres by one kilometre and may represent a significant mineralised system.

Williams highlighted the scale of the potential target, stating: “It’s big enough to host three or four 1,000,000-ounce gold equivalent deposits.”

In addition to this deep exploration target, North Peak is evaluating open pit opportunities near surface where historical drilling has produced high-grade intercepts, including 23 metres at 12 g/t gold and 3 metres at 86 g/t. The company is also assessing material from a historic waste dump that could potentially be processed at a nearby leach facility to help fund exploration activities.

Looking ahead, Williams said the company has recently increased a financing round to $5.75 million and is planning an extensive drill campaign in June and July to test both deep and near-surface targets.

      <title>Newcore Gold Enchi Project PFS targeted for June</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Newcore Gold CEO Luke Alexander joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the strong momentum the company is seeing as gold prices reach record highs and investor interest returns to the sector.

Alexander described the conference as the most bullish he has seen in several years, noting the renewed engagement from both existing and new investors in the commodity sector. “This has been the most bullish PDAC that I've been to in the last number of years,” Alexander said, highlighting how the strength in gold prices is helping drive market sentiment.

The discussion focused on Newcore Gold’s Enchi Gold Project in Ghana, a district-scale exploration project that the company is advancing toward a pre-feasibility study (PFS). Alexander explained that the project is already supported by robust economics outlined in a preliminary economic assessment, and the current work is aimed at further de-risking the asset ahead of the upcoming milestone.

Newcore Gold is currently in the midst of a 45,000-metre drilling program at Enchi. The early stages of drilling focused on resource conversion and infill drilling to increase confidence in the existing resource. More recently, the company has shifted its attention toward resource growth exploration, including step-out drilling along strike and testing higher-grade structures identified across the project.

Alexander also highlighted the company’s strong financial position following a $10.3 million warrant exercise, which fully funds the ongoing drill program and the PFS expected in June this year. The additional capital could also support expanded drilling and early work required to advance the project beyond the pre-feasibility stage.

      <title>Mundoro Capital’s copper strategy with BHP in Serbia</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Mundoro Captial Inc CEO Teo Dechev  joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s distinctive copper exploration business model and its growing portfolio of projects in Serbia and Arizona.

Dechev explained how Mundoro Capital operates as a “generator” within the junior mining sector — a niche model designed to build exploration opportunities while limiting shareholder dilution. Rather than funding exploration entirely through equity raises, the company assembles prospective land packages in copper-rich regions and partners with larger mining companies that fund exploration work.

Dechev said the company’s focus is firmly on copper and on regions with strong geological potential. Mundoro Capital currently concentrates on Eastern Europe and Arizona, areas where new copper discoveries could emerge. The company builds land positions, compiles geological data and targets, and then brings in partners to advance exploration.

“One of the advantages of the generator model is that by optioning projects to partners it actually generates cash,” Dechev said. “That cash we then use in order to create more opportunities.”

A key example of the strategy is Mundoro Capital’s Serbian portfolio, where global mining major BHP has partnered on a large land package. The company has assembled approximately 940 square kilometres of ground in the Timok region, an area known for major copper discoveries.

Dechev said BHP has signed multiple agreements covering the full land package and plans to run consistent drilling across targets during the year, which he described as a major step forward for exploration.

The company is also advancing copper opportunities in Arizona, one of the world’s richest copper provinces, where Mundoro Capital is currently working to option three projects to third-party partners.

A key example of the strategy is Mundoro Capital’s Serbian portfolio, where global mining major BHP has partnered on a large land package. The company has assembled approximately 940 square kilometres of ground in the Timok region, an area known for major copper discoveries.

Dechev said BHP has signed multiple agreements covering the full land package and plans to run consistent drilling across targets during the year, which he described as a major step forward for exploration.

The company is also advancing copper opportunities in Arizona, one of the world’s richest copper provinces, where Mundoro Capital is currently working to option three projects to third-party partners.

      <title>Meridian Mining DFS progress &amp; copper-gold growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Meridian Mining CEO Gilbert Clark joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news  about the company’s progress toward bringing its copper-gold project in South America toward production, alongside a growing exploration program and strong investor backing.

Speaking from the event floor, Clark outlined the robust economics underpinning the company’s development plans. Meridian Mining recently reported strong project metrics, including a post-tax net present value and an internal rate of return exceeding 61%, with a projected payback period of roughly 20 months at earlier metal prices.

Clark highlighted the geological potential of the project, describing it as located in “one of the most prospective copper-gold belts in South America.” While development remains the company’s near-term priority, he emphasised that exploration upside across the broader land package is significant.
Meridian Mining controls more than 55 kilometres of contiguous tenements, giving the company extensive exploration potential alongside its development strategy. The company plans to invest heavily in exploration, with a program of around C$10 million planned, aiming to expand resources and feed future updates to feasibility work.

Clark also discussed Meridian Mining’s recent financing, which raised roughly C$56–57 million and was reported to be significantly oversubscribed. The capital provides funding flexibility for both development activities and exploration expansion.

Alongside advancing the definitive feasibility study and development milestones, Meridian Mining is also planning to broaden its market exposure with a listing on the London Stock Exchange.

      <title>High-Grade gold intercept boosts Firefox Gold drill program</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Firefox Gold Corp Chairman Patrick Highsmith joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s latest exploration progress in Finland, highlighting a major drill intercept at the Mustajärvi gold project and outlining the company’s broader portfolio of gold assets in the region.

Highsmith explained that Firefox Gold Corp is currently conducting a substantial drill campaign at Mustajärvi, with more than 10,000 metres of drilling underway and about 60% of the program completed. The company recently reported a standout result from a previously undrilled gap between known high-grade zones. As Highsmith said, the company reported “a spectacular drill intercept… 7.6 metres of 32.2 grams per tonne gold.

The intercept also contained more than 300 gram-metres of gold, demonstrating strong thickness and grade potential within the mineralized system. According to Highsmith, the result helps connect two known mineralized areas and further supports the exploration model developed over several years of drilling at the project. Additional results are expected, with assays still pending from roughly half of the completed drill holes.

Beyond Mustajärvi, Firefox Gold Corp is advancing a broader exploration strategy across Finland. The company holds seven projects in the country, all 100% owned, with ongoing exploration programs designed to identify the next potential discovery. Highsmith also noted the strategic importance of Agnico Eagle, which holds an 11% stake in the company and operates the largest gold mine in Europe in Finland.

Highsmith highlighted Finland’s geological potential, pointing to underexplored greenstone belts similar to those that host major gold deposits elsewhere in the world. Firefox Gold Corp continues to focus on unlocking that potential through systematic exploration.

      <title>Element 29 Copper drill results expand Elida project potential</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Element 29 Resources Corp CEO Richard Osmond joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s ongoing exploration work at the Elida copper project in Peru and the strong outlook for copper heading into 2026.

Osmond highlighted growing investor interest in copper as many analysts expect it to be one of the top-performing commodities in the coming year. He noted that Peru remains one of the most attractive mining jurisdictions globally, describing it as “the second largest copper producer in the world,” with strong investment protections and free trade agreements that make it appealing for mining development.

The company is currently advancing exploration at its flagship Elida project, where a 7,000-metre drilling program began in September 2025. By the end of the year, Element 29 Resources Inc had completed more than 4,300 metres, with the remainder of the program continuing into 2026.

Osmond highlighted a particularly strong drill hole released in January, describing it as “probably the best hole I've ever drilled.” The hole reached 1,505 metres and encountered 1,489 metres of continuous mineralization averaging 0.58% copper equivalent. According to Osmond, the hole ended in strong mineralization, suggesting the system remains open at depth.

The ongoing drilling is designed to infill the existing resource model and potentially expand it significantly. The company’s goal is to double the current resource and evaluate the potential for a deeper underground component.

Geophysical surveys, including magnetotellurics, have also identified deeper porphyry targets that could extend the system further. Osmond said the long-term ambition is to build the project toward a resource exceeding one billion tonnes.

      <title>Chesapeake Gold reinvents Metates Deposit with new technology</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Chesapeake Gold Corp CEO Jean-Paul Tsotsos joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s progress advancing its flagship Metates project and how proprietary processing technology has dramatically improved the project’s economics.

Tsotsos explained that the Metates deposit, discovered in the 1980s, is a large refractory gold and silver deposit that has historically been difficult to process due to the challenge of extracting metals from sulfide minerals. Because of these complexities, the project had remained undeveloped for decades despite attracting interest from several major mining companies.

The company previously evaluated a conventional autoclave processing pathway, but the required infrastructure – including water pipelines from the Pacific coast, a desalination plant, and a dedicated power facility – pushed the estimated capital cost to about $3.6 billion.

Chesapeake Gold has since transformed the project by integrating proprietary oxidation technology acquired through a merger with a technology company. According to Tsotsos, this approach significantly simplifies the process.

“We’re basically doing what nature does to sulfide deposits, but we’re speeding up the timeline,” Tsotsos said, explaining that the process oxidizes the material on pads using proprietary chemistry rather than relying on complex flotation systems.

The new approach has dramatically reduced the projected capital cost to approximately $360 million, while maintaining meaningful production potential of around 150,000 ounces of gold equivalent annually with a projected 30-year mine life.

Beyond Metates, Chesapeake Gold is also evaluating opportunities to deploy the technology with third-party mining companies, potentially through licensing agreements or project partnerships.

Looking ahead, Tsotsos said investors can expect upcoming updates from ongoing metallurgical test work and third-party testing programs in the coming months.

      <itunes:subtitle>Chesapeake Gold Corp CEO Jean-Paul Tsotsos joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors &amp; Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s progress advancing its flagship Metates project and how proprietary processing technology has dramatically improved the project’s economics.

Tsotsos explained that the Metates deposit, discovered in the 1980s, is a large refractory gold and silver deposit that has historically been difficult to process due to the challenge of extracting metals from sulfide minerals. Because of these complexities, the project had remained undeveloped for decades despite attracting interest from several major mining companies.

The company previously evaluated a conventional autoclave processing pathway, but the required infrastructure – including water pipelines from the Pacific coast, a desalination plant, and a dedicated power facility – pushed the estimated capital cost to about $3.6 billion.

Chesapeake Gold has since transformed the project by integrating proprietary oxidation technology acquired through a merger with a technology company. According to Tsotsos, this approach significantly simplifies the process.

“We’re basically doing what nature does to sulfide deposits, but we’re speeding up the timeline,” Tsotsos said, explaining that the process oxidizes the material on pads using proprietary chemistry rather than relying on complex flotation systems.

The new approach has dramatically reduced the projected capital cost to approximately $360 million, while maintaining meaningful production potential of around 150,000 ounces of gold equivalent annually with a projected 30-year mine life.

Beyond Metates, Chesapeake Gold is also evaluating opportunities to deploy the technology with third-party mining companies, potentially through licensing agreements or project partnerships.

Looking ahead, Tsotsos said investors can expect upcoming updates from ongoing metallurgical test work and third-party testing programs in the coming months.

      <title>Cassiar Gold: 2.3Moz resource &amp; path to production</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cassiar Gold Corp CEO Marco Roque joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s progress at the Cassiar Gold Project in British Columbia and how recent exploration success is shaping the company’s development strategy.

Roque explained that extensive drilling over recent years has significantly expanded the resource base at the project, with the Taurus deposit now hosting a combined resource of about 2.3 million ounces of gold and remaining open for expansion. He noted that the company’s longer-term objective is to grow the resource further while advancing the project toward production.

During the interview, Roque highlighted the potential scale of the Taurus deposit and the company’s development ambitions. He stated, “our Taurus deposit is now 2.3 million ounces… it’s open for expansion,” while outlining a goal of eventually reaching production levels of roughly 200,000 ounces per year.

A key advantage for the company is existing infrastructure at the Cassiar site, including a permitted mill that last operated in 2007 and could be refurbished to support production. Roque discussed the company’s plan to evaluate high-grade underground veins in the southern part of the project area, where historic workings and strong grades provide a potential near-term production pathway.

With gold prices strengthening, Cassiar Gold is assessing development options that could generate early cash flow from high-grade material while continuing to expand the larger open-pit opportunity at Taurus. Upcoming catalysts include technical studies, additional drilling programs ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 metres, and further updates on high-grade vein targets across the district.

      <title>Apollo Silver Eyes PEA as Silver Market Strengthens</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Apollo Silver Corp CEO Ross McElroy joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s flagship Calico Project in California and the steps being taken to advance the silver-dominant asset toward development.

McElroy explained that the Calico Project is located in the Mojave Desert in San Bernardino County, a mining-friendly jurisdiction between Los Angeles and Las Vegas. The project already hosts a significant resource, with 125 million ounces of silver in the measured and indicated category and another 58 million ounces inferred.

McElroy described Calico as an advanced exploration project that is now transitioning toward development studies. The company is preparing for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), which McElroy expects could be initiated around mid-2026.

He highlighted that the deposit is largely near-surface, which could support future mining development, while upcoming technical work will focus on engineering studies rather than major resource expansion. Planned programs include geotechnical drilling and collecting rock samples for metallurgical testing to support mine design work.

Although silver represents about 85% of the project’s value, McElroy noted that the system also contains additional metals. These include zinc and gold, along with a critical mineral used in drilling fluids that is largely imported into the United States. As McElroy explained: “It’s a silver dominant project… but there are other kickers in there.”

The company has also been accepted into a US government consortium linked to the Department of Defense that supports development of critical minerals projects, which could help streamline permitting and potentially provide government support.

      <title>American Resources’ ReElement files patent to enhance Lithium extraction</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp Executive Vice President Mark LaVerghetta joined Steve Darling to announce that its subsidiary, ReElement Technologies, has filed a new patent application designed to complement Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) processes and support the production of ultra-high-purity lithium products from lithium-bearing brines.

The patent filing expands ReElement’s intellectual property portfolio and marks its eighth next-generation patent application, with additional filings currently in development. Management said the move underscores the company’s commitment to advancing modular, environmentally responsible refining technologies.

LaVerghetta explained that ReElement has been collaborating with DLE operators focused on extracting and concentrating lithium from low-concentration aqueous brines. Through these partnerships, the company identified strong integration potential between DLE extraction systems and ReElement’s proprietary chromatography-based separation and purification platform.

While DLE technologies are designed to efficiently extract and concentrate lithium from brine sources, ReElement’s refining platform is positioned to convert those concentrated streams into high-purity, battery-grade lithium products. The combined process is expected to enhance efficiency, reduce costs, optimize lithium recovery, and improve final product purity.

ReElement’s multi-mineral, multi-feedstock refining platform was built for adaptability across a range of upstream inputs. In addition to lithium-bearing brines, the system can process hard rock material, recycled black mass, and other lithium-containing feedstocks. This flexibility enables the company to integrate across the lithium value chain and support upstream innovation rather than compete directly with extraction technologies.

Management believes the patent filing further strengthens ReElement’s role as a technology partner in the evolving lithium supply ecosystem, particularly as demand for battery-grade materials continues to grow globally.

      <title>AtaiBeckley NV reports encouraging Phase 2a data for EMP-01 in social anxiety</title>
      <description><![CDATA[AtaiBeckley NV CEO Dr Srinivas Rao joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss topline results from the company’s exploratory, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2a trial evaluating EMP-01 in adults with Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD).

The first-in-patient study met its primary safety objective and delivered encouraging secondary and exploratory efficacy signals in what management described as a highly severe, difficult-to-treat patient population.

Regarding safety, Rao said EMP-01 demonstrated a favorable and manageable tolerability profile. No serious adverse events were reported, and there were no cases of treatment-emergent suicidal behavior or intent. Most adverse events were mild to moderate in nature and resolved without medical intervention.
On efficacy measures, EMP-01 produced a numerically greater reduction in symptoms than placebo as measured by the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS). At Day 43, the least squares mean reduction from baseline was -28.53 points for EMP-01 compared to -16.67 points for placebo. While the study was not powered for statistical significance, the placebo-adjusted reduction of 11.85 points (Hedges’ g = 0.45; one-tailed p-value = 0.036) is consistent with a moderate treatment effect size and suggests clinically meaningful improvement.

Importantly, symptom reductions observed at the six-week endpoint—after just two doses of EMP-01—were comparable in magnitude, in cross-trial comparisons, to improvements typically reported after 8 to 12 weeks of daily SSRI or SNRI therapy in registration studies.

On the Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) scale, 49% of patients treated with EMP-01 were rated as “very much improved” or “much improved,” compared to 15% in the placebo group. This 34-percentage-point difference corresponds to a Number Needed to Treat (NNT) of 2.95 (95% CI: 1.84–7.42), indicating a meaningful level of global clinical improvement.

Rao noted that more detailed analyses will be presented at upcoming scientific meetings and will inform the next stages of EMP-01’s clinical development program.

      <itunes:summary>AtaiBeckley NV CEO Dr Srinivas Rao joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss topline results from the company’s exploratory, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2a trial evaluating EMP-01 in adults with Social Anxiety Disorder (SAD).

The first-in-patient study met its primary safety objective and delivered encouraging secondary and exploratory efficacy signals in what management described as a highly severe, difficult-to-treat patient population.

Regarding safety, Rao said EMP-01 demonstrated a favorable and manageable tolerability profile. No serious adverse events were reported, and there were no cases of treatment-emergent suicidal behavior or intent. Most adverse events were mild to moderate in nature and resolved without medical intervention.
On efficacy measures, EMP-01 produced a numerically greater reduction in symptoms than placebo as measured by the Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale (LSAS). At Day 43, the least squares mean reduction from baseline was -28.53 points for EMP-01 compared to -16.67 points for placebo. While the study was not powered for statistical significance, the placebo-adjusted reduction of 11.85 points (Hedges’ g = 0.45; one-tailed p-value = 0.036) is consistent with a moderate treatment effect size and suggests clinically meaningful improvement.

Importantly, symptom reductions observed at the six-week endpoint—after just two doses of EMP-01—were comparable in magnitude, in cross-trial comparisons, to improvements typically reported after 8 to 12 weeks of daily SSRI or SNRI therapy in registration studies.

On the Clinical Global Impression-Improvement (CGI-I) scale, 49% of patients treated with EMP-01 were rated as “very much improved” or “much improved,” compared to 15% in the placebo group. This 34-percentage-point difference corresponds to a Number Needed to Treat (NNT) of 2.95 (95% CI: 1.84–7.42), indicating a meaningful level of global clinical improvement.

Rao noted that more detailed analyses will be presented at upcoming scientific meetings and will inform the next stages of EMP-01’s clinical development program.

      <title>Delivra Health reports E-Commerce growth in first half of Fiscal 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Delivra Health Brands CEO Gord Davey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to review the company’s financial results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2025, highlighting momentum in its e-commerce channel and continued brand expansion. Delivra Health’s portfolio includes Dream Water and LivRelief, brands designed to address common health concerns such as sleeplessness, chronic pain, and anxiety.

Davey said that during the first half of fiscal 2026, the company experienced encouraging traction in its targeted e-commerce strategy. Year-to-date e-commerce sales increased 26% for Dream Water® and 28% for LivRelief™, reflecting strong consumer engagement and repeat purchasing trends.

Despite the online growth, overall revenue was affected by temporary shifts in customer ordering patterns across certain retail markets, as well as the transition of the licensed LivRelief™ Infused distribution channel. Management noted that while these factors created short-term variability in reported results, underlying consumer demand for the company’s core brands remains solid.

To address near-term fluctuations, Delivra Health is actively optimizing distribution timing and refining its channel strategy. The company’s priorities for the second half of fiscal 2026 include stabilizing retail ordering patterns, reigniting growth in licensed markets, and expanding higher-margin direct-to-consumer and U.S. retail opportunities.

Management believes that continued focus on e-commerce expansion and disciplined channel management will position the company for improved performance in the latter half of the fiscal year.

      <title>Frontier Lithium’s PAK Project &amp; $300M Support</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Frontier Lithium CEO Trevor Walker joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s PAC lithium project in northwestern Ontario and its ambition to build a fully integrated lithium operation in North America.

Walker highlighted that the PAC project “boasts North America's highest grade lithium resource” and is supported by a definitive feasibility study positioning it as a potential low-cost future supplier of lithium feedstock. Frontier Lithium is advancing plans beyond mining, with a downstream refinery designed to convert lithium concentrates into lithium salts used in battery cathodes—critical for strengthening the North American battery supply chain.

The company has received significant government backing, including a letter of intent from the provincial and federal governments for just over $300 million to support the proposed refinery. Frontier Lithium has also been recognized under Ontario’s “One Project, One Process” initiative, aimed at streamlining permitting timelines.

Walker emphasized collaboration with Indigenous partners, noting agreements with Sandy Lake First Nation and Deer Lake First Nation as part of efforts to advance infrastructure and responsible development. He also discussed strategic industry partnerships, including Mitsubishi Corporation, which holds a 7.5% stake at the project level, and a newly signed memorandum of understanding with Panasonic.

With infrastructure development progressing, including the Berens River bridge investment, Walker said 2026 is set to be a pivotal year for the company.

      <title>Endurance Gold: 1.45Moz Resource at Reliance</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Endurance Gold Corp CEO Robert Boyd joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s inaugural mineral resource estimate at its Reliance Gold Project and the significant upside potential still to be unlocked.

The company recently announced a maiden inferred mineral resource of 1.45 million ounces of gold, grading approximately 2.3 grams per tonne across 19.6 million tonnes. Boyd described the estimate as a “pretty significant first step,” noting that within a constrained pit shell, roughly 1.12 million ounces sit at an average grade of 2.23 g/t — placing the deposit in what he called “that sort of top quartile of grades for open gold systems in North America.”

The resource follows four years of drilling, comprising 127 holes and 32 kilometres of drilling, focused on just 1.5 kilometres of the broader property. Importantly, the system remains open at depth and along strike.

Boyd highlighted three new undrilled targets, including a 1.3-kilometre soil anomaly south of the current resource, with surface samples returning up to 8.1 g/t gold, and eastern targets with grab samples up to 25 g/t gold. He emphasised that the company is focused on growing and upgrading the resource, stating, “We’re on the first steps in a brand new high-level orogenic gold camp.”

With strong continuity in drilling and multiple expansion targets, Endurance Gold Corp is positioning Reliance as a growing gold discovery in a well-established British Columbia mining district.

Speaking from the OTC Markets Group, Allen described the current precious metals environment as a strong backdrop for development, noting that “it’s a great time in the industry,” while highlighting the importance of capturing favourable market windows.

San Rafael, which has more than 20 years of mining history, was acquired two years ago and includes a fully permitted 1,600-tonne-per-day processing plant. Allen explained that after many believed the project had been mined out, the company spent the past two years drilling and making new discoveries. “All of our new discoveries are within 1.5 kilometres of the process plant,” he said, adding that the company is now on the cusp of updating its resource estimate.

Following a 30,000-metre drill program last year, Andean Silver is planning 65,000 metres of drilling in 2026. The focus is on converting approximately 80% of the resource from inferred to indicated category, supporting a technical study targeted for mid-2027. A restart of mining operations is currently being considered for 2028.

Allen also highlighted optionality around the existing mill, noting the company is evaluating turning it on earlier to process low-grade stockpiles, which could see production begin as early as 2027 while mining activities ramp up.

      <title>Aurania Targets Nickel &amp; Gold in Europe</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aurania Resources CEO Dr Keith Barron joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s strategic shift into Europe and its growing portfolio of critical metals and gold projects.

Speaking from PDAC 2026, Barron explained that following the introduction of a punitive tax in Ecuador, the company pivoted its focus and has spent the past two and a half years assembling new opportunities across Europe. Aurania has secured three concessions in France, with exploration expected to begin in the spring, initially through airborne geophysics. Barron highlighted visible high-grade gold samples from one of the concessions and noted the broader mineral potential of the region, including tungsten and tin.

Beyond France, Aurania is advancing a cobalt project in Corsica and a significant nickel opportunity near Turin in northern Italy. The Italian project centres on a historic asbestos mine containing approximately 60 million cubic metres of waste material grading around 0.2% nickel, with additional cobalt and copper.

Barron described the extraction process as straightforward, stating: “All you gotta do is basically grind the rock up and then you extract it with magnets. Very, very simple. You don’t need any chemicals.” He added that the project could represent “probably the easiest got resource in the whole of Europe today.”

With the EU currently sourcing 45% of its nickel from Russia, Barron emphasised the strategic importance of developing domestic supply, describing the project as “a win for nature. It’s a win for the EU. It’s a win for everyone.”

      <title>Summit Royalties: 47 assets, cash flow growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Summit Royalties CEO Drew Clark joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s rapid transformation following its recent listings on the OTC Markets and the TSX Venture Exchange.

Summit Royalties Ltd has grown significantly over the past year, moving from having no assets and minimal cash to building a diversified portfolio of 47 royalties and becoming a cash-flowing business listed on two exchanges. Clark described the journey as “a hell of a journey,” highlighting the company’s three major acquisitions that reshaped the business.

Clark explained that Summit’s core investment strategy is focused on increasing per-share value through disciplined acquisitions. “To grow the per share value of the business every day is what we strive to do,” he said, noting that this approach applies whether the company is acquiring operating or development-stage assets. The portfolio remains primarily focused on gold and silver royalties, providing exposure to strong metal prices while maintaining diversification. No single asset represents more than 20% of net asset value, reducing risk while allowing upside across the portfolio.

Clark also pointed to approximately $300 million in capital being deployed by counterparties across Summit’s portfolio, supporting production growth, mill installations, and expanded drilling. With research coverage expected from investment banks and increased marketing toward US investors, the company is positioning itself for broader visibility.

      <title>CarMax Copper expansion: 15,000m drill Program planned</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cascadia Minerals VP Corporate Development Andrew Carne joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s transformational merger with Granite Creek Copper and the growth strategy for the CarMax copper-gold project in Yukon.

Carne described the August merger as “a really transformational transaction,” bringing the CarMax project into Cascadia’s portfolio. The project already hosts an existing resource of 650 million pounds of copper and 20,000 ounces of gold, providing what Carne called “a really nice foundation that we know is economic.” However, he noted the project had struggled to gain momentum in weaker copper markets and amid tighter funding cycles.

Following the acquisition, Cascadia immediately completed a 4,000 metre drill program, intersecting long, broad copper intervals outside the existing resource. Carne highlighted the potential for sulfide mineralization at depth, explaining that this material “actually recovers even better from a mine plant perspective” and has not yet been fully drilled off.

The company has now announced a 15,000 metre drill program for the year, focused on expanding the resource and testing parallel structures within 400 to 500 metres of the known deposit. With $6.5 million in the bank and road access to the site, Cascadia is fully funded and plans to begin drilling in late April.

CarMax is positioned as Cascadia’s anchor project, with a two-year plan aimed at advancing toward an updated PEA or potentially pre-feasibility. Alongside this, the company continues early-stage exploration at its Catch Property, targeting new copper-gold porphyry discoveries.

Tondo explained that Jaguar Mining Inc is currently producing over 40,000 ounces of gold per year from the Pilar mine in Brazil. The company operates three complexes in the Iron Quadrangle region of Minas Gerais. These include the Caeté complex, which houses the Pilar mine and processing plant; the Turmalina complex, which was operating until the end of 2024 and is awaiting final approvals to resume; and the Paciencia complex, which includes the Santa Isabel mine that is being brought back into production after being on care and maintenance since 2012.

Looking ahead, Tondo said the company expects that with Turmalina returning and Santa Isabel restarting, annual production could increase to between 60,000 and 80,000 ounces. Over the next three to five years, the company’s internal target is to reach approximately 100,000 ounces per year, supported by the development of a new project already within its portfolio. Construction on that project is expected to begin toward the end of this year.

Tondo described the company’s strategy as built on three pillars: “The first pillar… is maximizing what we already have in our hands,” followed by expanding exploration across 46,000 hectares of mineral rights in Brazil, and pursuing M&A opportunities to further grow production. The longer-term objective is to exceed 200,000 ounces of annual production within three to five years.

      <title>Kingsmen Resources: 6,000m Silver drill plan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Kingsmen Resources CEO Scott Emerson joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s advancing silver and gold projects in Chihuahua, Mexico, and the upcoming 6,000 metre phase two drill program at its Las Coloradas project.

Emerson explained that Kingsmen Resources has consolidated two historic, past-producing districts into district-scale opportunities. He described both assets as brownfield projects, highlighting the company’s guiding principle: “the best place to find a mine is where there was a mine.”

At Las Coloradas, the company previously completed a 3,200 metre phase one drill program focused on testing whether historic workings extended along strike and below the water table. Emerson noted the program delivered encouraging results, stating that the company saw strong mining widths and that “the grade got better as we went deeper.” Phase two drilling will expand on those results with an initial 6,000 metre campaign designed to test depth extensions and continuity.

The company is also advancing its gold project, which Emerson said was consolidated from fragmented land holdings previously controlled by major operators including Kennecott, Anglo and Grupo Mexico. At the Chevitos target, prior shallow RC drilling returned grades ranging from 8 to 12 grams per tonne over several metres, with drilling limited to just 50 metres depth.

Kingsmen Resources recently completed a financing and currently holds approximately $1.7 million in cash. Emerson said the company’s strategy is focused on exploration success, noting, “we’re treasure hunters,” with the objective of defining a discovery attractive to nearby producers.

      <title>Avalon Advanced Materials: Lithium &amp; Rare Earths</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Avalon Advanced Materials CEO Scott Monteith joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s expanding lithium and rare earth portfolio and its strategy to scale critical mineral assets across Canada.

Monteith, who joined the company two and a half years ago to help scale its resource base, outlined Avalon Advanced Materials Inc’s three core platforms. The company holds lithium resources near Kenora, Ontario, and the Nechalacho rare earth elements project in the Northwest Territories. He explained that Avalon Advanced Materials Inc has adopted a joint venture model to advance its projects, including Separation Rapids in Kenora, where a Belgian partner holds a majority stake and is responsible for financing, scaling and operating the asset.

In Thunder Bay, the company is progressing plans for a lithium hydroxide refinery under its Lake Superior Lithium platform. Monteith said the refinery will use a meso-based alkaline process designed to produce lithium hydroxide or carbonate without acidic tailings. The company is currently raising a capital stack for the first module, representing a planned US$1.3 billion investment.

At Nechalacho, Avalon Advanced Materials Inc is advancing what Monteith described as “the most significant, rare earth deposit globally,” supported by prior feasibility work and existing infrastructure. The company recently raised $18.5 million to fund drilling, updated studies and office expansions in Yellowknife and Thunder Bay.

Monteith emphasised strong engagement with government stakeholders, noting growing interest in securing North American supply chains for critical minerals tied to electrification and defence.

      <title>Pirate Gold drill program targets Newfoundland gold</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pirate Gold Corp CEO Denis Laviollette joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s Treasure Island project in Newfoundland and the launch of a major drill program targeting gold discovery in one of Canada’s most prospective emerging districts.

Laviolette explained that Pirate Gold Corp embraces a “treasure hunting” ethos, describing exploration as both science and calculated risk. “We follow the clues… and then test our theories to see if we could find buried treasure,” he said, outlining the disciplined geological approach behind the company’s strategy.

Treasure Island is located in Newfoundland, a jurisdiction Laviolette believes has the hallmarks of a world-class orogenic gold district. He highlighted similarities between the company’s Moosehead project and other major regional discoveries, noting that “the rocks are the same… the style of veining is identical, the grades are identical.” While Moosehead currently represents an early-stage system, the company is focused on expanding known zones through systematic drilling.

With drills turning, Pirate Gold Corp is aiming to test multiple targets and build scale. Laviolette emphasized that the company is well-funded and prepared to aggressively pursue discovery opportunities.

He also discussed Pirate Gold Corp’s commitment to transparency, including regular video updates for investors. “We want people to understand the clues that we’re putting together,” he said, adding that consistent communication can help build a stronger and more stable shareholder base.

      <description><![CDATA[Nevada Lithium Resources CEO Stephen Rentschler O’Shea joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for the company’s flagship Bonnie Claire lithium project in Nevada and the broader outlook for lithium markets.

Rentschler explained that Bonnie Claire is the company’s sole asset and described it as “going to be a very big mine when it's built.” The updated PEA, completed in August, outlines what he called “excellent investment results,” including a projected 60-year mine life, a plus-30% internal rate of return (IRR), and a payback period of less than three years using what the company considers reasonable lithium price assumptions.

He emphasized the scale of the project and its leverage to higher lithium prices, noting that even modest increases in lithium pricing could add billions to net present value. The PEA uses a base lithium price of $24,000 per tonne, and Rentschler said incremental increases “go up by billions in terms of net present value.”

Beyond lithium, Nevada Lithium Resources Inc is evaluating additional potential value from critical minerals such as cesium, rubidium and rare earth elements, as well as boron, which Rentschler said provides a byproduct cost advantage. The company is also advancing work on its borehole mining method, designed to minimize environmental impact while selectively extracting higher-grade material.

Looking at the broader market, Rentschler said, “I think clearly you've hit the inflection point with lithium,” pointing to rising prices and growing global demand.

      <title>Appia Rare Earths: 9 drills turning in Brazil</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Appia Rare Earths and Uranium Corp CEO Tom Drivas joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s expanding rare earth and uranium portfolio across Canada and Brazil, highlighting an active drill season and strong early results from multiple projects.

Drivas outlined Appia Rare Earths & Uranium Corp’s diversified asset base, which includes rare earth projects in Saskatchewan and Brazil, alongside uranium exploration in Ontario and near the Athabasca Basin. He described the company as unique due to its combination of rare earth and uranium exposure across multiple jurisdictions, with mineralization hosted in rocks that can be extracted using known technologies.

At the Alces Lake project in northern Saskatchewan, the company has completed extensive work including airborne and ground gravity surveys, drilling, and 3D modelling. Appia has identified nine new drill targets and plans to begin drilling in June, with the camp and drill already in place.

In Brazil, the company is advancing what is now referred to as the PCH project under a partnership arrangement. The project hosts both ionic clay mineralization near surface and hard rock rare earth mineralization at depth. Drivas highlighted recent results, stating: “We just finished 26 new holes on the hard rock… this time we went down to 300 metres and it’s mineralized from top to bottom.” He added that some intervals returned grades “up to 14% rare earths.”

Appia plans to deliver a NI 43-101 compliant resource and is targeting approximately 950 drill holes on the ionic clay portion, alongside work toward a preliminary feasibility study. With nine rigs currently active and infrastructure located just 15 minutes from a mining town, the company expects steady news flow in the coming months.

      <title>Copperwood Project update: Production by 2030</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Highland Copper Company CEO Barry O’Shea joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the advancement of the company’s Copperwood Project in the United States and the pathway toward near-term copper production.

O'Shea described Copperwood as “one of the most advanced copper projects in the US,” highlighting that the project already has a current feasibility study and is fully permitted, meaning “timeline is in our hands.” The company has initiated early site work and awarded detailed engineering contracts, with a goal of reaching 40% engineering completion in 2026 to support a construction decision.

Highland Copper Company Inc is targeting a construction decision in 2026, with first copper production expected in 2029 or 2030. Copperwood is projected to produce approximately 30,000 tonnes of copper annually, or around 70 million pounds, with capital expenditure of just over $400 million.

O'Shea also discussed the strategic importance of copper being designated a critical mineral in the US in late 2025. The company has received a letter of interest from the United States EXIM Bank for $250 million, representing approximately 40% of the required capital. He noted that federal backing provides important visibility for funding under commercial terms.

Additionally, Highland Copper Company Inc divested the non-core White Pine asset to focus capital allocation on Copperwood, eliminate debt, and position the company for a final investment decision.

      <title>Dry Graphite Separation Cuts Costs to $75/Ton</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Volt Carbon Technologies Advisor Bill Pfaffenberger joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s patented dry graphite separation technology and how it could significantly reduce production costs while improving environmental performance.

Speaking from PDAC 2026 at the Odyssey Marketplace, Pfaffenberger explained that Volt Carbon Technologies Inc operates across two divisions: graphite processing and a battery facility in Guelph. The company can process graphite and integrate it directly into battery applications, as well as recycle old batteries.

The focus of the discussion was Volt Carbon Technologies Inc’s air-based classification process. Unlike traditional graphite flotation methods, which rely heavily on water and chemicals, the company’s patented system operates entirely dry. “All graphite in the world right now is produced by flotation with water,” Pfaffenberger said. “Basically we want to get water out of the equation. So this does that.”

The process separates graphite particles using air, allowing heavier materials to fall away first before recovering valuable graphite flakes. Even residual sand can be processed to a salable quality, with Pfaffenberger noting that “practically nothing is going back into the ground,” making the process approximately 98% efficient in terms of material recovery.

Volt Carbon Technologies Inc is preparing to deploy its first modular field unit, capable of producing approximately 1,500 tonnes of finished graphite annually. The company is in discussions with the Canadian government regarding potential funding support. Pfaffenberger highlighted a significant cost advantage, estimating traditional flotation costs at US$550 to US$2,000 per tonne, compared to US$75 to US$100 per tonne using Volt Carbon Technologies Inc’s technology. The company is targeting high-grade Quebec graphite deposits and has secured source agreements, positioning itself as a technology company rather than a mining operator.

Speaking from PDAC 2026 at the Odyssey Marketplace, Pfaffenberger explained that Volt Carbon Technologies Inc operates across two divisions: graphite processing and a battery facility in Guelph. The company can process graphite and integrate it directly into battery applications, as well as recycle old batteries.

The focus of the discussion was Volt Carbon Technologies Inc’s air-based classification process. Unlike traditional graphite flotation methods, which rely heavily on water and chemicals, the company’s patented system operates entirely dry. “All graphite in the world right now is produced by flotation with water,” Pfaffenberger said. “Basically we want to get water out of the equation. So this does that.”

The process separates graphite particles using air, allowing heavier materials to fall away first before recovering valuable graphite flakes. Even residual sand can be processed to a salable quality, with Pfaffenberger noting that “practically nothing is going back into the ground,” making the process approximately 98% efficient in terms of material recovery.

Volt Carbon Technologies Inc is preparing to deploy its first modular field unit, capable of producing approximately 1,500 tonnes of finished graphite annually. The company is in discussions with the Canadian government regarding potential funding support. Pfaffenberger highlighted a significant cost advantage, estimating traditional flotation costs at US$550 to US$2,000 per tonne, compared to US$75 to US$100 per tonne using Volt Carbon Technologies Inc’s technology. The company is targeting high-grade Quebec graphite deposits and has secured source agreements, positioning itself as a technology company rather than a mining operator.

      <title>800g/t Silver: Silver North expands drilling</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Silver North Resources Board Chair Mark Brown joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s latest high-grade silver drill results in the Keno Hill district of Yukon and the expanded exploration program now underway.

Brown highlighted that recent drilling delivered exceptionally strong grades, including one of the standout intercepts of 13 metres grading over 800 grams per tonne silver, alongside lead, zinc and 1.5 grams per tonne gold. The company also reported multiple intercepts exceeding 500 grams per tonne silver, with seven successful holes out of eight drilled in the most recent campaign.

Operating in one of Canada’s most prolific silver-producing regions, adjacent to Hecla Mining’s Keno Hill operations, Silver North Resources Ltd is now fully funded for two years of exploration. The company plans to drill between 5,000 and 7,000 metres annually, supported by a recently completed financing completed at an average price of $0.51 per share.

Brown said the company is targeting four main areas across the project, explaining that each could potentially host significant silver mineralisation. “We actually hit on seven out of eight drill holes last year,” he noted, underscoring the consistency of results to date.

With airborne geophysics set to identify additional fault structures and two drills being mobilised, investors can expect steady news flow throughout the summer and into the fall.

      <title>Standard Uranium Advances 2026 Drill Programs as Market Fundamentals Strengthen</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium CEO Jon Bey joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s active 2026 exploration programs and strengthening uranium market fundamentals at PDAC 2026.

Standard Uranium Ltd has begun the year with multiple drill programs across its Saskatchewan-based portfolio of 12 projects. Bey explained that the company recently commenced its first-ever drill program at its Corvo project in partnership with Aventis Energy, with drilling already advancing to the third hole. He noted the program is progressing well, with news expected soon.

The company also announced the upcoming start of drilling at the Roché project through a joint venture with Collective Metals, which is fully funding the program. In addition, Standard Uranium Ltd will return this summer to its flagship Davidson River project for its fourth drill campaign there — the first since 2022 — supported by updated geophysical data and gravity surveys.

Bey emphasized that each drill campaign is focused on discovery, stating, “Every drill program, the main objective is to make a high-grade discovery.” At Corvo, the company is targeting the Manhattan Showing, where surface samples have returned uranium grades exceeding 8%, describing the result as “phenomenal.”

He also discussed strengthening uranium fundamentals, highlighting recent long-term supply agreements, including major deals involving India that could impact global supply dynamics and long-term pricing.

      <title>STLLR Gold: 17Moz resource &amp; Timmins growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[STLLR Gold VP Investor Relations Allan Candelario joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s three Canadian gold assets, including its flagship Tower Gold Project in Timmins and the Hollinger Tailings Project.

STLLR Gold Inc is a Canadian gold development company with 17 million ounces of gold in measured and indicated mineral resources across two of the largest gold projects in Canada, alongside a tailings recovery project targeting near-term cash flow. Candelario described the Tower Gold Project as “one of the largest undeveloped gold projects in Canada,” located in the prolific Timmins mining district, which has historically produced 80 million ounces of gold.

A recently completed PEA outlines nearly a generation of mine life, with potential production of approximately 273,000 ounces of gold annually. The company is advancing infill drilling, environmental baseline work, and permitting activities aimed at moving the project toward a construction-ready decision over the next two to three years.

The Hollinger Tailings Project presents a potential near-term cash flow opportunity. Historic tailings from the Hollinger mine — which produced 19 million ounces of gold between 1910 and 1968 — are estimated to contain approximately half a million ounces of gold. STLLR Gold recently became the first project to receive permits under Ontario’s new expedited tailings reprocessing framework.

Candelario also highlighted a financing led by Agnico Eagle and Eric Sprott, providing funding visibility for the next 18 to 24 months and adding validation to the company’s strategy.

      <title>Gunnison Copper NPV jumps 55% to $2B</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Gunnison Copper CFO Craig Hallworth joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s updated technical report for its flagship Gunnison Copper Project and the operational momentum at the Johnson Camp Mine.

Hallworth highlighted the release of a new NI 43-101 technical report that materially increases the project’s after-tax net present value from approximately US$1.3 billion to US$2 billion — a 55% uplift. He explained that “we’ve materially increased the value of this project,” noting that roughly 80% of the improvements came from factors under management’s control rather than copper price assumptions.

A key contributor to the enhanced economics is the inclusion of the Strong and Harris satellite deposit, grading 0.85% total copper. This has lifted the overall pit grade to 0.43%. The updated plan outlines total production of more than 3.2 billion pounds of copper, an increase of 500 million pounds from the previous study.

Hallworth also detailed the next steps, including a pre-feasibility study, advancing the ore body to reserve status, and permit amendments. He stated that within 24 months the company expects to see reserves declared and further project de-risking.

In addition, he discussed the Johnson Camp Mine, described as the newest copper producer in the United States, which is supplying finished copper into domestic supply chains, including Amazon Web Services.

      <itunes:subtitle>Gunnison Copper CFO Craig Hallworth joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors &amp; Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s updated technical report for its flagship Gunnison Copper Project and the operational momentum at the Johnson Camp Mine.

Hallworth highlighted the release of a new NI 43-101 technical report that materially increases the project’s after-tax net present value from approximately US$1.3 billion to US$2 billion — a 55% uplift. He explained that “we’ve materially increased the value of this project,” noting that roughly 80% of the improvements came from factors under management’s control rather than copper price assumptions.

A key contributor to the enhanced economics is the inclusion of the Strong and Harris satellite deposit, grading 0.85% total copper. This has lifted the overall pit grade to 0.43%. The updated plan outlines total production of more than 3.2 billion pounds of copper, an increase of 500 million pounds from the previous study.

Hallworth also detailed the next steps, including a pre-feasibility study, advancing the ore body to reserve status, and permit amendments. He stated that within 24 months the company expects to see reserves declared and further project de-risking.

      <title>Aftermath Silver Pre-Feasibility &amp; 2026 Plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company’s advancing silver projects in Chile and Peru, outlining its transition toward engineering studies, resource expansion and a busy 2026 exploration programme.

Ruston explained that Aftermath Silver Ltd. currently holds three exploration-stage projects in Chile, alongside a silver-copper-manganese project in Peru that is moving into the pre-feasibility stage. The company recently appointed engineering consultancies to begin work on the pre-feasibility study, marking a key step forward.

Discussing the Peru asset, Ruston highlighted that “it has an extremely large silver resource,” with silver as the primary commodity and initial mining focused on maximising silver production. He also pointed to manganese as a potential contributor to the battery industry, with longer-term plans to integrate silver, copper and manganese production.

In Chile, the main focus is resource expansion. Ruston said the objective is clear: “We want to make it bigger,” targeting a potential 12 to 15 years of sustained production before determining whether the company develops the project itself or pursues alternative strategic options.

Looking ahead to 2026, Ruston noted that the pre-feasibility study is expected to take around 12 months and will examine logistics, mine design and process plant design. The company also plans to drill two copper targets in Peru, while advancing exploration in Chile. With what Ruston described as a “healthy treasury,” Aftermath Silver Ltd. expects an active year across all projects.

      <title>Salt Shortage? Atlas Salt eyes 2030 production</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Atlas Salt Inc CEO Nolan Peterson joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news as the company’s plans to address North America’s growing salt supply shortage.

Peterson explained that Atlas Salt is developing a salt mine on the west coast of Newfoundland focused on road deicing salt — a commodity with limited public market exposure. He highlighted that there has not been a new salt mine built in North America for approximately 25 to 30 years, largely due to high capital costs, environmental challenges, and logistical barriers.

Unlike many legacy operations that are deep and located beneath lakes or waterways, Atlas Salt’s deposit is shallow, not underwater, and located close to a port — offering what Peterson described as a key logistical advantage in a bulk commodity business.

He pointed to current supply shortages, noting that “North America is just running out of salt right now,” with imports required from jurisdictions such as Chile and Egypt even during normal winters. Atlas Salt aims to strengthen domestic supply while building what Peterson described as a “very clean and green mine.”

The company has begun early construction activities, including land clearing and site preparation, and is advancing project financing. Commercial production is currently targeted for 2030 under the existing timeline. Importantly, the environmental assessment has already been approved, significantly de-risking the project.

      <title>AI pullback a buying opportunity? GinsGlobal&apos;s Ginsberg says yes</title>
      <description><![CDATA[GinsGlobal Index Fund CEO Anthony Ginsberg joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio to discuss his outlook for AI, blockchain, defence tech and global megatrends through the lens of the HAN-GINS Tech Megatrend Equal Weight UCITS ETF.

Ginsberg addressed the recent pullback in AI and tech shares, describing it as “more of a speed bump” rather than a structural downturn. He said the fund views the weakness as a buying opportunity, noting that artificial intelligence is still in its early stages and expanding into cybersecurity, cloud computing, robotics and biotech.

He highlighted the ETF’s equal-weight structure as a key differentiator, with an average PE ratio of around 21 times earnings compared to the Nasdaq’s roughly 34 times. According to Ginsberg, “the problem has been that you’ve got this very narrowness in the market with these mag seven,” adding that broader opportunities are emerging across undervalued subthemes.

The discussion also covered the addition of defence tech and quantum computing. Ginsberg pointed to strong momentum in defence tech, saying the theme has risen more than 25% since December, driven by increased US government outsourcing and strategic priorities. Quantum computing, while still in its early stage, is gaining importance due to Pentagon backing and national security applications.

On blockchain, he noted it was the fund’s best performer last year, up 33%, and stressed that the ETF focuses on infrastructure and ledger technology rather than cryptocurrencies.

Looking at macro trends, Ginsberg remains optimistic, citing projected US GDP growth of 3–3.5%, easing inflation, fiscal stimulus and increased M&A activity as supportive tailwinds for growth stocks and tech megatrends.

      <title>Kodal Minerals CEO on Mali arbitration and continued strong progress at Bougouni Lithium Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Kodal Minerals PLC (AIM:KOD) CEO Bernard Aylward talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest operational progress at the Bougouni Lithium Project in Mali, ongoing shipments to China, and the newly announced arbitration process relating to a US$15 million payment connected to a 2024 agreement with the Mali government.

Aylward explained that Kodal entered arbitration following discussions with joint venture partner Hainan Mining Co. Ltd regarding an indemnity claim under the existing financing agreement. He stated that the parties hold “diametrically opposed views” and said the company is comfortable allowing a third party to reach a decision while discussions continue during the arbitration process.

Despite the dispute, Aylward emphasised that the underlying partnership remains strong, with both parties committed to advancing Bougouni, including planning for stage two development and a significant 2026 work programme involving drilling and engineering studies.

Operationally, Bougouni is performing well. The company recently completed its second shipment, receiving an initial 95% payment of just under US$24 million for nearly 20,000 tonnes of spodumene concentrate. A third shipment is anticipated in late March or early April. Aylward stressed, “We’re selling into a very high price, lithium market, and our product is in strong demand,” noting that Hainan Mining is keen to secure as much product as possible.

He added that mining, processing, and logistics are progressing smoothly, with product being transported to port, shipped to China, and generating revenue.

      <itunes:summary>Kodal Minerals PLC (AIM:KOD) CEO Bernard Aylward talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest operational progress at the Bougouni Lithium Project in Mali, ongoing shipments to China, and the newly announced arbitration process relating to a US$15 million payment connected to a 2024 agreement with the Mali government.

Aylward explained that Kodal entered arbitration following discussions with joint venture partner Hainan Mining Co. Ltd regarding an indemnity claim under the existing financing agreement. He stated that the parties hold “diametrically opposed views” and said the company is comfortable allowing a third party to reach a decision while discussions continue during the arbitration process.

Despite the dispute, Aylward emphasised that the underlying partnership remains strong, with both parties committed to advancing Bougouni, including planning for stage two development and a significant 2026 work programme involving drilling and engineering studies.

Operationally, Bougouni is performing well. The company recently completed its second shipment, receiving an initial 95% payment of just under US$24 million for nearly 20,000 tonnes of spodumene concentrate. A third shipment is anticipated in late March or early April. Aylward stressed, “We’re selling into a very high price, lithium market, and our product is in strong demand,” noting that Hainan Mining is keen to secure as much product as possible.

He added that mining, processing, and logistics are progressing smoothly, with product being transported to port, shipped to China, and generating revenue.

      <title>Coinsilium CEO and CFO on prediction markets opportunity, strategy update</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Coinsilium Group Limited (AQSE:COIN, OTCQB:CINGF, FRA:5CT) CEO Eddy Travia and CFO Ben Proffitt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest strategic update, expansion into prediction markets, the upcoming Yellow Network token listing, and its current financial position.

Proffitt explained that Coinsilium is “not a pure play Bitcoin treasury company,” reinforcing that the company’s core business remains its accelerator and venture development model. While the Bitcoin treasury function provides financial strength, the focus is on actively creating shareholder value rather than waiting for Bitcoin price appreciation. As he stated, the goal is not to “just sit around and wait for the price of Bitcoin to increase,” but to leverage the company’s expertise, venture portfolio and strategic assets to generate growth.

Travia outlined the company’s expansion into prediction markets, describing the sector as a fast-growing and natural extension of its digital asset focus. He highlighted the role of blockchain technology in providing transparency and tokenisation within platforms such as Polymarket, and confirmed Coinsilium is in negotiations to acquire a significant stake in a venture within the space.

The interview also covered the upcoming Yellow Network token listing event scheduled for March 8. Travia described Yellow as a decentralised clearing network focused on reducing counterparty risk and improving liquidity across trading venues through off-chain order matching and on-chain smart clearing.

Proffitt added that, following last year’s £17 million equity raise and Bitcoin accumulation, the company has “well over a year of runway” with no near or medium-term funding requirements.

      <title>Meren CEO on 2026 strategy: growth &amp; balance sheet focus</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Meren (TSX:MER, STO:MER, OTCQX:MRNFF) CEO Dr Oliver Quinn talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s leadership transition, 2025 performance and strategic priorities for 2026 following a transformational period for the business.

Quinn explained that Meren completed its strategic shift in 2025 with the consolidation of the Prime Nigeria business, doubling reserves and production while taking direct ownership and control of the asset. He described 2025 as a year of “disciplined delivery,” highlighting execution, integration and strong financial performance. During the year, Meren returned $108 million to shareholders through dividends and buybacks, while maintaining a strong balance sheet and liquidity position.

Looking ahead, Quinn said the company’s overarching priority is “consistent execution” to support disciplined capital allocation. Nigeria remains central to the investment case, with a focus on safe, reliable base production alongside near-term reserves growth, infill drilling and low-risk exploration opportunities. He also pointed to improving fiscal conditions in Nigeria, including a deepwater tax break designed to accelerate resource development.

Beyond Nigeria, Meren is advancing gas opportunities in Equatorial Guinea, where it is seeking a partner to develop a discovery near the EG LNG facility. The company also holds exploration acreage in Equatorial Guinea and South Africa, as well as a carried interest in the Venus development in the Orange Basin, where FID is anticipated in 2026.

      <title>Connecting Excellence CEO on strong H1 update, growth &amp; Bitcoin strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Connecting Excellence Group Plc (AQSE:XCE, OTCQB:XCELF) CEO Scott Ellam talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong first-half performance, IPO milestone, and innovative Bitcoin treasury strategy.

The company reported a 20% increase in net fee income during the first half of FY26, driven by higher average fees and continued demand for senior-level placements across global consulting, professional services, logistics, environmental services and AI intelligence businesses. Ellam explained that growth came despite senior leadership preparing for the IPO, highlighting the strength of the underlying recruitment team and operating model.

He said the public listing on the Aquis Exchange, alongside the company’s OTCQB trading in the United States, is central to scaling the business. According to Ellam, the PLC structure combined with a Bitcoin treasury strategy enables Connecting Excellence Group Plc to attract high-performing executive recruiters using performance-based share incentives.

Discussing the Bitcoin strategy, Ellam said investors are backing “a growing operating business and cash flowing business, but on the upside, they are using all surplus cash to buy more of the Bitcoin, which is compounding at a significant growth rate.” The company currently holds more than 52 Bitcoin and has launched XCE Bitcoin bonds to access additional capital markets funding.

January marked the strongest recruitment month in the company’s history, with senior placements across AI supply chain intelligence, professional services, environmental compliance and IoT data solutions.

      <title>Precision oncology: EMV Capital backs Vortex</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about Vortex Biotech’s advancement in liquid biopsy technology and how the company fits within its "venture building" strategy.

Iliev explained that Vortex addresses a significant public healthcare need in early cancer diagnostics, particularly as the industry shifts away from traditional tissue biopsies toward liquid biopsy approaches. He highlighted that tissue biopsies are often painful, costly, and limited in frequency, whereas liquid biopsies offer a less invasive and more scalable alternative.

Vortex managing director Paul Reeves described how the Vortex platform supports precision medicine by delivering precise and comprehensive tumour biology information. Unlike antibody- or magnet-based systems, the Vortex platform uses a purely physics-based microfluidics approach to isolate circulating tumour cells (CTCs), avoiding selection bias and preserving cell integrity.

Reeves said: “We are uniquely gentle on the cell… you can turn one circulating tumour cell into a million cells.” This capability enables potential applications in drug discovery and drug testing, opening additional market opportunities beyond early diagnostics.

The company has also been selected for AstraZeneca’s expanded exchange program, providing validation of its science and strategy, alongside partnerships including Europe’s largest private pathology laboratory. Vortex Biotech is currently midway through global clinical validation studies and is progressing toward regulatory submissions and broader UK and European commercial rollout.

      <itunes:summary>EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about Vortex Biotech’s advancement in liquid biopsy technology and how the company fits within its &quot;venture building&quot; strategy.

Iliev explained that Vortex addresses a significant public healthcare need in early cancer diagnostics, particularly as the industry shifts away from traditional tissue biopsies toward liquid biopsy approaches. He highlighted that tissue biopsies are often painful, costly, and limited in frequency, whereas liquid biopsies offer a less invasive and more scalable alternative.

Vortex managing director Paul Reeves described how the Vortex platform supports precision medicine by delivering precise and comprehensive tumour biology information. Unlike antibody- or magnet-based systems, the Vortex platform uses a purely physics-based microfluidics approach to isolate circulating tumour cells (CTCs), avoiding selection bias and preserving cell integrity.

Reeves said: “We are uniquely gentle on the cell… you can turn one circulating tumour cell into a million cells.” This capability enables potential applications in drug discovery and drug testing, opening additional market opportunities beyond early diagnostics.

The company has also been selected for AstraZeneca’s expanded exchange program, providing validation of its science and strategy, alongside partnerships including Europe’s largest private pathology laboratory. Vortex Biotech is currently midway through global clinical validation studies and is progressing toward regulatory submissions and broader UK and European commercial rollout.

      <title>EMV Capital backs DName-iT’s sequencing tech</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev and Steve Cook, CEO of EMVC portfolio company DName-iT, talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about advancing safety and accuracy in next-generation DNA sequencing and clinical diagnostics.

The discussion focused on the rapid global growth of next-generation sequencing (NGS) in cancer testing, prenatal screening and rare disease identification, and the critical risks that emerge when processing thousands or even millions of samples at scale.

Iliev reflected on lessons learned from mass PCR testing during the Covid pandemic, noting how large-scale diagnostics can expose “cracks” in systems, including false positives and false negatives with potentially serious consequences. As sequencing-based testing expands across healthcare systems, eliminating errors becomes increasingly vital.

Cook explained how DName-iT addresses these risks by embedding molecular barcodes directly into the testing process. Unlike traditional safeguards such as tube labelling and laboratory protocols, which remain vulnerable to human error, DName-iT introduces patient-specific molecular sequences at the sample level. As Cook described it, the technology builds “quality assurance and safety of these kinds of tests built in at the molecular level.”

The company is preparing commercial pilots, having already secured regulatory approvals and manufactured over 500 prepared samples for laboratory trials. Alongside commercialisation efforts in cancer blood testing and prenatal screening markets in the EU and US, DName-iT is also pursuing IP monetisation strategies through potential partnerships.

Watch the full interview to learn how EMV Capital is supporting DName-iT’s journey toward commercialisation.

      <title>Pension Schemes Bill: Baroness Bowles warns on exclusion of investment companies</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Baroness Sharon Bowles, Member of the House of Lords, talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about mounting concerns surrounding the Pension Schemes Bill and its proposed exclusion of listed investment companies from qualifying assets for DC default pension schemes.

Bowles explained that the issue is not about existing rules, but a clause currently progressing through Parliament that would require certain pension schemes to invest in private assets only through non-listed vehicles. She warned that this approach ignores how markets operate in practice and risks distorting investment behaviour.

The exclusion could affect investment in infrastructure projects such as wind farms, nuclear facilities like Sizewell, hospitals and schools. Bowles highlighted that listed investment companies have historically provided access to such assets while allowing liquidity for investors. As she put it, “It’s a route that is very important because retail investors can also get a slice of the action.”

Addressing concerns about risk, Bowles argued that underlying asset risk exists regardless of structure, stating, “I wouldn’t say that one is more risky than the other. You’ve got different risks, and that’s why they’re actually rather complementary.”

She also warned that excluding listed investment companies could remove potential cornerstone investors from IPOs and follow-on fundraisings, potentially damaging broader UK capital markets. Bowles criticised the lack of consultation and described the policy approach as “a slogan” rather than a reflection of market realities.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai launches AI Voice concierge for Eventdex platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the official launch of Eventdex AI Voice Concierge, a real-time AI voice automation layer embedded directly into the company’s Eventdex platform.

Gappelberg explained that Eventdex serves as the first deployment environment for the new AI voice infrastructure. However, the underlying AI Voice Concierge architecture has been designed for rollout across all three pillars of Nextech’s enterprise ecosystem—Krafty Lab, Eventdex, and Map D—which together form the company’s unified AI-powered Events Operating System (EOS) for enterprise engagement and event execution.

The new capability is built on a scalable, modern technology stack integrating OpenClaw for voice orchestration, Twilio for telephony and PSTN connectivity, AWS EC2 for cloud deployment, and Pinecone as an intelligent retrieval layer. The infrastructure delivers low-latency, production-grade AI voice automation tailored specifically for enterprise event environments.

Unlike traditional IVR systems, Eventdex AI Voice Concierge is a domain-specific AI voice layer trained for event workflows. It automates inbound event-support calls using natural voice interaction while maintaining seamless escalation to human agents when needed.

Gappelberg described the approach as a “knowledge-first plus human escalation” model, ensuring operational efficiency without compromising enterprise service standards. By embedding AI directly into Eventdex workflows—including registration, attendee services, exhibitor management, and sponsor support—the company is targeting areas where support demand is time-sensitive, recurring, and measurable in terms of return on investment.

The AI Voice Concierge will be offered as a premium AI support automation add-on within the Eventdex ecosystem, further expanding Nextech3D.ai’s AI-driven enterprise automation capabilities.

      <title>C3 Metals confirms broad Copper mineralization at Khaleesi Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[C3 Metals CEO Dan Symons joined Steve Darling from Proactive to report new drill results from the company’s Khaleesi copper project in southern Peru, highlighting encouraging early-stage exploration success.

C3 Metals has completed 12 diamond drill holes totaling 6,300 metres, with copper mineralization observed in all completed holes across a footprint measuring approximately 1,000 metres by 500 metres. Step-out drilling has extended up to 300 metres, marking the first-ever drill testing at the greenfield Khaleesi project.

Assay results from the first two holes were previously released. The company has now received assays from an additional four holes, with multiple intercepts of broad skarn- and diorite-hosted copper mineralization. Highlights include hole KHZ5825-001: 101.1 metres grading 0.30% copper, 0.045 g/t gold, 0.84 g/t silver, and 48 ppm molybdenum (0.37% CuEq) from 23.4 metres downhole and KHZ5950-001: 243.7 metres grading 0.24% copper, 0.020 g/t gold, 0.87 g/t silver, and 41 ppm molybdenum (0.29% CuEq) from approximately 200 metres vertical depth.

Symons said results from the first six assayed holes, combined with visual observations from the remaining six holes, suggest potential for higher-grade mineralization in the western and southwestern areas of the project. Mineralization in the eastern and northeastern portions appears more distal from what management describes as the system’s “heat engine.” With additional drilling, the company aims to better define the geometry of the mineral system and vector toward higher-grade zones, potentially associated with a porphyry source.

Following completion of the initial 6,300-metre Phase 1 program, C3 Metals has launched an aggressive 2026 drill campaign. The company plans to drill an additional 15,000 metres this year, targeting a total of 21,300 metres by year-end. Management is continuously refining its geological model to better target skarn-hosted mineralization and evaluate the potential for an underlying porphyry system.

      <title>First Phosphate hails phosphate added to Canada’s critical minerals essential for clean tech list</title>
      <description><![CDATA[First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to welcome the amendment to the 2025 Canadian federal budget that adds phosphate to the country’s official list of critical minerals essential for clean technology.

With phosphate now formally recognized as a critical mineral, exploration and downstream processing projects will qualify for key federal incentive programs, including the Critical Mineral Exploration Tax Credit (CMETC) and the Clean Technology Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit (CTM).

Passalacqua explained that the CMETC will support the company’s capital-raising efforts aimed at advancing exploration and development of its mineral properties in the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region of Quebec. The funding is expected to further delineate and develop what the company describes as a district-scale phosphate zone.

The Clean Technology Manufacturing Investment Tax Credit is expected to assist in building infrastructure tied to mining operations as well as downstream processing initiatives. These include the company’s planned phosphoric acid plant and its proposed lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode active material facility.

First Phosphate recently produced commercial-grade LFP 18650 battery cells using North American-sourced critical minerals. The high-purity phosphoric acid used in the cells was derived from rare igneous anorthosite rock extracted from the company’s Bégin-Lamarche property, underscoring its vertically integrated strategy.

Management believes the federal recognition of phosphate as a critical mineral strengthens the company’s position within Canada’s clean technology supply chain and supports its long-term vision of establishing a fully integrated North American LFP battery materials platform.

      <title>First Phosphate secures C$16.7M federal funding for LFP battery development</title>
      <description><![CDATA[First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has been awarded a non-repayable contribution agreement of up to C$16.7 million from the Government of Canada through Natural Resources Canada under the Global Partnerships Initiative.


Passalacqua explained that the funding will support technical, and engineering work required to validate the production of phosphate concentrate suitable for the lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery market. The program will focus on assessing processing circuits, equipment design, and related infrastructure to ensure the concentrate meets the quality standards established under the company’s contract with its definitive offtaker.


The initiative is aimed at strengthening Canada’s strategic position within the LFP battery value chain by developing domestic capacity to convert apatite (phosphate concentrate) into high-purity phosphoric acid (PPA) for battery applications.

According to the company, the project will advance the development of a scalable, made-in-Canada process for producing battery-grade phosphate concentrate, helping reduce reliance on foreign supply chains while supporting North America’s growing clean energy and electric vehicle markets.

Management views the federal contribution as a significant step in advancing First Phosphate’s vertically integrated strategy and reinforcing Canada’s role in securing critical mineral inputs for next-generation battery technologies.

      <title>TNR Gold&apos;s royalty nears as Ganfeng&apos;s Mariana Lithium ships first lithium chloride</title>
      <description><![CDATA[TNR Gold Corp (TSX-V:TNR, FRA:TNW, OTC:TRRXF) executive chairman Kirill Klip talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about Ganfeng Lithium’s Mariana Lithium project completing its first export shipment of high-purity lithium chloride, a milestone that brings TNR Gold closer to receiving its first royalty payment.

Klip explained that the first export consisted of 240 tonnes of lithium chloride, with customs clearance confirming product quality. He described the achievement as a significant technological milestone, noting that some lithium projects can take years to reach high-purity production. With Phase One targeting 22,000 tonnes of lithium chloride per year at full capacity, independent research has estimated potential royalty income to TNR Gold Corp of up to US$1.6 million annually, based on current lithium prices.

Klip said, “Fundamental research estimated that we can receive as much as 1.6 million US dollars per year when the project will be producing at full capacity.” He added that first royalty payments are expected within the coming weeks.

The discussion also covered the broader strategic implications of lithium chloride production, particularly its role in lithium metal and solid-state battery technology. Klip highlighted Ganfeng’s recent announcement regarding high-density batteries capable of powering electric vehicles for over 1,000km, as well as potential applications in humanoid robots.

Additionally, Mariana Lithium has seen a 60% resource increase to more than 13 million tonnes of lithium chloride equivalent, with potential future expansion phases that could further enhance royalty revenue.

      <itunes:subtitle>TNR Gold Corp (TSX-V:TNR, FRA:TNW, OTC:TRRXF) executive chairman Kirill Klip talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about Ganfeng Lithium’s Mariana Lithium project completing its first export shipment of high-purity lithium chloride, a milestone that brings TNR Gold closer to receiving its first royalty payment.

Klip explained that the first export consisted of 240 tonnes of lithium chloride, with customs clearance confirming product quality. He described the achievement as a significant technological milestone, noting that some lithium projects can take years to reach high-purity production. With Phase One targeting 22,000 tonnes of lithium chloride per year at full capacity, independent research has estimated potential royalty income to TNR Gold Corp of up to US$1.6 million annually, based on current lithium prices.

Klip said, “Fundamental research estimated that we can receive as much as 1.6 million US dollars per year when the project will be producing at full capacity.” He added that first royalty payments are expected within the coming weeks.

The discussion also covered the broader strategic implications of lithium chloride production, particularly its role in lithium metal and solid-state battery technology. Klip highlighted Ganfeng’s recent announcement regarding high-density batteries capable of powering electric vehicles for over 1,000km, as well as potential applications in humanoid robots.

Additionally, Mariana Lithium has seen a 60% resource increase to more than 13 million tonnes of lithium chloride equivalent, with potential future expansion phases that could further enhance royalty revenue.

      <title>Genflow Biosciences CEO on first tranche of Wallonia funding &amp; key 2026 milestones</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF, FRA:WQ5) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company receiving the first tranche of a €4 million non-dilutive grant from Wallonia and what it means for the advancement of its GF-1002 MASH programme.

Leire confirmed that the initial instalment has now been received, calling it a “landmark moment” for the company. He emphasised that the funding provides “a significant boost to our cash runway with zero equity cost to investors,” allowing Genflow to focus fully on advancing its science without dilution to shareholders.

The grant directly supports the company’s MASH programme, targeting advanced metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis, which Leire described as one of the most significant unmet medical needs of this generation. He noted that in advanced stages of the disease, “there is simply no treatment option other than liver transplant,” positioning the company’s gene therapy approach as a potential solution to a serious clinical gap.

Beyond MASH, Leire outlined additional pipeline opportunities, including glaucoma, sarcopenia and the ongoing dog study, where positive interim results have already been announced. Final results from the dog study and biological age data could potentially support a trade sale to an animal health company. In ophthalmology, a six-month glaucoma proof-of-concept study is expected to begin soon, targeting retinal ganglion cell regeneration rather than solely reducing ocular pressure.

      <title>Immunic CEO on $400m financing, phase 3 MS plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX) CEO Dr Daniel Vitt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent up to $400 million private placement financing and the next major milestones for vidofludimus calcium in multiple sclerosis.

Vitt described the transaction as “a great transaction and a transformative transaction for the company,” explaining that the $200 million upfront tranche strengthens Immunic’s position ahead of its pivotal phase 3 ENSURE readouts and supports preparations for potential commercialization. The financing is designed to fund completion of the phase 3 ENSURE trials in relapsing MS, support a planned NDA submission to the FDA in mid-next year, and enable the initiation of a new phase 3 study in primary progressive MS.

Immunic expects topline data from its twin phase 3 ENSURE studies at the end of this year. Vitt noted that an interim analysis conducted in 2024 resulted in the IDMC giving the studies the green light to continue as planned.

      <title>D3 Energy advances Helium &amp; Gas projects with South African flagship</title>
      <description><![CDATA[D3 Energy CEO David Casey joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to provide an update on the company’s helium and natural gas portfolio, focusing on its flagship asset in South Africa and growth plans for 2026.

Casey described D3 Energy as a helium and natural gas company with two core projects: a foundational asset in South Africa and a second project in South Australia targeting helium, hydrogen, and natural gas. He highlighted the uniqueness of the South African asset, noting its location on an ancient impact crater system that concentrated uranium—“uranium is the only thing that creates helium”—resulting in a regenerating helium and biogenic natural gas system. Casey called it “without doubt one of the most unique assets I’ve ever been involved with.”

The company is building on strong momentum from the past year, during which it booked its maiden reserve approximately 15 months after listing. Casey said the current drilling program is expected to expand resources and reserves further and potentially enable reserve upgrades.

D3 Energy is also actively pursuing a strategic partner for its South Australia asset and advancing discussions with its largest shareholder in South Africa. The company anticipates announcing a natural gas offtake agreement in the near term, which would support both operational growth and commercial validation.

Addressing market fundamentals, Casey emphasized the growing demand for helium, particularly in the semiconductor industry, describing helium as “a 21st century critical mineral.” He also highlighted the importance of U.S. investor engagement, noting that the company’s OTC listing has helped expand its U.S. shareholder base and increased exposure to North American capital markets.

      <title>American Uranium advances Lo Herma Uranium project amid rising U.S. demand</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Uranium CEO Bruce Lane joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to provide an update on the company’s advancing uranium strategy in the United States, highlighting progress at the Lo Herma Project in Wyoming and the growing opportunity driven by rising domestic uranium demand.

Lane explained that American Uranium has been active in the U.S. since 2019, initially targeting conventional uranium and vanadium projects in Utah, before shifting focus to in-situ recovery (ISR) uranium projects in Wyoming. The Lo Herma Project, located in the Powder River Basin roughly ten miles from Cameco Corp Smith Ranch-Highland facility—the largest permitted ISR operation in the U.S.—is now the company’s principal focus.

The project currently holds a JORC-compliant resource of 8.57 million pounds of uranium, with 32% classified as indicated. Lane said that ongoing drilling campaigns are designed to expand this resource, with an updated resource estimate expected by the end of March. A 15-hole targeted drilling campaign is underway, to be followed by infill drilling, metallurgical and hydrogeological studies, and a scoping study update planned for the third quarter of 2026.

Commenting on market fundamentals, Lane noted, “The U.S. is still the largest producer of nuclear power in the world, needing about 50 million pounds a year to run the reactors.” He emphasized the domestic production shortfall, stating that the gap creates significant opportunities for new uranium projects.
Lane added, “Nuclear power has never been more important to the U.S.… we think the time is right to start moving towards getting more uranium out of the ground as fast as possible,” highlighting the strategic timing for Lo Herma and the company’s broader U.S. uranium initiatives.

Lane added, “Nuclear power has never been more important to the U.S.… we think the time is right to start moving towards getting more uranium out of the ground as fast as possible,” highlighting the strategic timing for Lo Herma and the company’s broader U.S. uranium initiatives.

      <itunes:subtitle>American Uranium CEO Bruce Lane joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to provide an update on the company’s advancing uranium strategy in the United States, highlighting progress at the Lo Herma Project in Wyoming and the growing opportunity driven by rising domestic uranium demand.

Lane explained that American Uranium has been active in the U.S. since 2019, initially targeting conventional uranium and vanadium projects in Utah, before shifting focus to in-situ recovery (ISR) uranium projects in Wyoming. The Lo Herma Project, located in the Powder River Basin roughly ten miles from Cameco Corp Smith Ranch-Highland facility—the largest permitted ISR operation in the U.S.—is now the company’s principal focus.

The project currently holds a JORC-compliant resource of 8.57 million pounds of uranium, with 32% classified as indicated. Lane said that ongoing drilling campaigns are designed to expand this resource, with an updated resource estimate expected by the end of March. A 15-hole targeted drilling campaign is underway, to be followed by infill drilling, metallurgical and hydrogeological studies, and a scoping study update planned for the third quarter of 2026.

      <title>American Rare Earths’ Halleck Creek poject set to anchor U.S. rare earth supply</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Rare Earths CEO Mark Wall joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to discuss the strategic importance and long-term potential of the Halleck Creek rare earths project in Wyoming, positioning it as a cornerstone for domestic U.S. supply.

Wall described the project’s scale as extraordinary, noting, “It’s 2.5 billion tons of ore, with a B, which is a lot.” He compared Halleck Creek to large, long-life copper porphyry systems, highlighting its low strip ratio of 0.16 and near-surface mineralisation, making it “very, very simple to mine.” He emphasised that the asset has the potential to act as “the strategic anchor to United States rare earths supply domestically for many, many, many years.”

Current estimates suggest around 100 years of supply, though Wall noted this is a conservative figure. At a lower cut-off grade of 1,000 ppm, the resource could extend beyond 400 years, with the ore body remaining open both at depth and laterally.

Looking ahead to 2026, the company plans several key milestones, including completion of the pre-feasibility study (PFS), commencement of the feasibility study, submission of the state permit, and ongoing engagement in Washington, DC to reinforce the project’s strategic significance.

Halleck Creek hosts both heavy and light rare earths, including terbium, dysprosium, and samarium, elements critical for defence and advanced technology applications. Combined with Wyoming’s supportive infrastructure, permitting framework, and collaboration with the University of Wyoming on potential industrial uses for engineered sand by-products, Wall positioned Halleck Creek as a major domestic rare earth opportunity that could strengthen U.S. supply chain independence.

      <title>Resolution Minerals advances Horse Heaven Gold &amp; Antimony project in Idaho</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Resolution Minerals CEO Craig Lindsay joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to provide an update on the company’s Horse Heaven project in Idaho, highlighting its gold exploration success and the potential for near-term antimony production in the United States.

Lindsay explained that Resolution Minerals holds 100% of the 15,000-acre Horse Heaven project, located adjacent to Stibnite Mine operated by Perpetua. The project is a former antimony and tungsten mine that also hosts a growing gold system along the three-kilometre Golden Gate trend.

Recent drilling at Golden Gate North returned promising results, including 253 metres at 1.5 grams per tonne gold from surface. Lindsay emphasized that the company “hit in 100% of the holes that we drilled,” with mineralisation remaining open at depth and along strike. The company plans a 30,000-foot drill program in 2026, aiming to deliver a maiden resource estimate by year-end.

At Antimony Ridge, historic trenches that were productive during multiple wartime periods have returned average grades of 40% antimony. Resolution Minerals is now pursuing permitting for a bulk sample program and 125 drill holes. Lindsay stated: “We can actually tick the box of the United States becoming a producer of antimony within the next 12 months,” highlighting the project’s potential to provide a near-term domestic supply source amid tightening global markets.

In parallel, the company is upgrading its listing to the Nasdaq to increase exposure to U.S. investors, reflecting growing interest in both critical minerals and gold. Resolution Minerals’ dual focus on gold growth and antimony supply positions Horse Heaven as a strategic asset in supporting U.S. critical minerals independence while advancing shareholder value.

      <title>New Frontier expands U.S. critical minerals strategy with Copper &amp; Rare Earths</title>
      <description><![CDATA[New Frontier Minerals Senior Consultant  Kevin Das joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to provide an update on the company’s growing copper and heavy rare earth strategy, highlighting expanding exposure to the U.S. critical minerals market.

Das explained that New Frontier Minerals, listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, London Stock Exchange, and recently on the OTCQB, is focused on a dual approach: advancing copper projects in northwest Queensland while also developing heavy rare earth assets.

In Queensland, the company is progressing a copper project that already hosts a mineral resource of 2.1 million tonnes at 1.1% copper, representing just under 22,000 tonnes of contained copper metal. Das highlighted a recently announced broader exploration target for the Northwest Queensland Copper Project, ranging from 12 million to 57 million tonnes at grades of 0.3% to 1.5% copper, supported by 14 prospective targets across the project area. Drilling plans and budgets are under review to expand and underpin the existing resource at the Big One Deposit.

In addition to copper, New Frontier is advancing heavy rare earth exploration, having secured an option on a carbonatite rare earth property in Quebec. Das emphasized the company’s strategic rationale for listing on the OTCQB, noting strong U.S. demand for critical minerals and positioning New Frontier to provide the right commodities to meet that need.

Management believes the combined copper and rare earth strategy, coupled with expanded U.S. market access, enhances the company’s global critical minerals footprint and supports long-term growth in both supply and investor visibility.

      <itunes:summary>Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the addition of multiple new enterprise clients across its Tier 1 and Tier 2 investment categories, further expanding adoption of the company’s AI Events Operating System (EOS) within the global enterprise events technology market.

Nextech3D.ai’s enterprise ecosystem—uniting Krafty Lab, Eventdex, and Map D—forms a unified AI-powered operating system designed to streamline enterprise engagement and event execution. The platform integrates mission-critical tools into a single environment aimed at enhancing operational efficiency and measurable event ROI.

Gappelberg highlighted the addition of a new Tier 1 Starter enterprise client for 2026: General Dynamics Information Technology (GDIT), a global provider of IT services and mission-critical technology solutions. The Tier 1 Starter category represents an annual investment of approximately $25,000 to $50,000.
In the Tier 2 Growth category, Nextech3D.ai has onboarded Mercury Financial, a technology-driven financial services firm. With an expected 2026 annual investment of $75,000 to $150,000, Mercury Financial will receive priority scheduling, bonus platform credits, and quarterly strategic planning support to enhance its hybrid and in-person event strategy.

According to management, the EOS platform is increasingly being selected as a centralized operating system for in-person, hybrid, virtual, and experiential events. The platform automates key functions including registration, on-site operations, real-time analytics, attendee engagement, and AI-powered workflows—delivering improved efficiency, deeper engagement insights, and enhanced event return on investment.

The addition of these enterprise clients underscores Nextech3D.ai’s continued traction within high-value customer segments as it scales its recurring revenue model in the enterprise events market.

      <title>Alvopetro boosts reserves 79%, Expands Brazil and Canada plans for 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Alvopetro Energy CEO Corey Ruttan joined Steve Darling from to outline the company’s year-end 2025 reserves and provide an operational outlook for 2026, highlighting significant growth across its Brazilian and Canadian assets.

As of December 31, 2025, Alvopetro reported total proved (1P) reserves of 8.1 million barrels of oil equivalent (MMboe), representing a 79% increase over 2024 levels. Total proved plus probable (2P) reserves increased 43% year-over-year to 13.1 MMboe. The before-tax net present value discounted at 10% (NPV10) of the company’s 1P reserves rose 38% to $245.6 million, while the NPV10 of 2P reserves increased 20% to $393.6 million, reflecting both reserve growth and strong asset performance.

Ruttan also reported risked best estimate contingent resources of 3.8 MMboe and risked best estimate prospective resources of 12.1 MMboe. The year-end reserve additions were driven in part by the successful 183-D4 well in the Caruaçu Formation at the company’s 100%-owned Murucututu project in Brazil, as well as the addition of newly acquired Canadian assets.

Looking ahead to 2026, Alvopetro plans to build on better-than-anticipated results from the 183-D4 well, which began production in August 2025. The company intends to expand the Murucututu field production facility and pipeline offtake capacity, increasing field capacity from approximately 150 e3m³/d to as much as 600 e3m³/d.
In parallel, Alvopetro plans to enhance gas processing capabilities at its UPGN Caburé facility to accommodate a growing proportion of richer gas from Murucututu, also targeting a total capacity of up to 600 e3m³/d.

In Canada, the company recently completed drilling two additional earning wells to secure a 50% working interest in 47 additional sections of land. This expands its area of mutual interest with its partner to 75 gross sections (23,539 net acres), all targeting the Mannville stack heavy oil fairway using open-hole multilateral drilling technology.

Management believes the expanded land base could support the drilling of more than 100 Tier 1 wells. In January 2026, Alvopetro completed drilling two additional wells, bringing total production to eight wells (4.0 net). The company’s share of the two gross (1.0 net) wells was budgeted at C$2.0 million in 2026.

      <title>Pinnacle Silver and Gold advances El Potrero toward production decision</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pinnacle Silver and Gold CEO Robert Archer joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an operational update on the company’s El Potrero Project in Durango, Mexico, as it advances toward a potential production decision.

Archer said that since commencing work on the project approximately one year ago, Pinnacle has made significant progress along multiple parallel development tracks designed to fast-track the asset toward production as quickly as possible.

Following the completion of extensive underground and surface channel sampling, as well as detailed 3D geological modeling, the company is now positioned to begin rehabilitation of historic mine workings along the main Dos de Mayo vein trend. Preparation of underground drill stations is underway, with underground delineation drilling expected to follow.

Mine rehabilitation and drill station preparation are anticipated to take approximately six weeks. However, by staggering work across three separate mines on the property, Pinnacle plans to initiate drilling before all preparatory activities are finalized. As a result, underground drilling is expected to commence in late March or early April.
In parallel with underground development, the company has submitted an application for a surface drilling permit and initiated a second round of metallurgical testing. Pinnacle has also commissioned a feasibility study for the extension of a powerline to support future operations and has signed a new access agreement with the local community, further strengthening its development pathway.

Management believes these coordinated efforts position El Potrero for continued advancement as the company works toward a near-term production decision.

      <title>Pantheon International lead manager on H1 performance, strategy to boost NAV</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Charlotte Morris, partner at Pantheon and lead manager of Pantheon International PLC (LSE:PIN, FRA:PAA0) talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s interim results for the six months to 30 November 2025, outlining NAV growth, share price performance, strategic refinements and outlook for private equity markets.

During the period, PIN reported a 4.9% increase in net asset value (NAV), driven by modest underlying valuation gains, investment income and favourable currency movements, as the majority of the portfolio is US dollar-denominated and unhedged. The share price rose 26.7% over the same period, outperforming both the MSCI World and FTSE All-Share indices. This helped narrow the discount from 40% at the end of May to 28% by the end of November, although Morris noted the discount remains too wide in the company’s view.

PIN invested £42.8 million in share buybacks, contributing 1% to NAV growth. Morris said the company has “materially enhanced our analytical capabilities” and refined its private equity manager buy list to focus capital on first and second-quartile performers, alongside sector specialists with proven buy-and-build strategies.

The distribution rate improved from 12% at the year end to 15% during the reporting period, and the company has generated £1.5 billion of net cash over the past decade. With a net debt position of 9.3% and a recently agreed management fee reduction effective from 1 June, Morris said PIN is “well positioned to deliver improved Nav progression over the medium term.”

This helped narrow the discount from 40% at the end of May to 28% by the end of November, although Morris noted the discount remains too wide in the company’s view.

PIN invested £42.8 million in share buybacks, contributing 1% to NAV growth. Morris said the company has “materially enhanced our analytical capabilities” and refined its private equity manager buy list to focus capital on first and second-quartile performers, alongside sector specialists with proven buy-and-build strategies.

The distribution rate improved from 12% at the year end to 15% during the reporting period, and the company has generated £1.5 billion of net cash over the past decade. With a net debt position of 9.3% and a recently agreed management fee reduction effective from 1 June, Morris said PIN is “well positioned to deliver improved Nav progression over the medium term.”

      <title>RC Fornax £4.3m order book drives confidence, 40% sales growth forecast for FY26</title>
      <description><![CDATA[RC Fornax PLC (AIM:RCFX) finance director Rob Shepherd joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more on the company’s latest results, operational transformation, and the strong order visibility underpinning expectations for significant growth in FY26.

Shepherd explained that while the recently reported statutory results reflect the business through August 2025, RC Fornax today is “a fundamentally different business.” Over the past six months, the company has strengthened governance by appointing experienced defence-sector non-executives, introduced a new sales director to improve conversion of pipeline opportunities, and brought in a technology and innovation manager driving new initiatives — including space-related projects.

A key highlight is the company’s growing order book. Shepherd said: “Through the first half, we've got some £4.3 million worth of orders in the pipe… and we can see the steady increase year on year.” This visibility underpins guidance for at least 40% sales growth, with the company targeting revenue just shy of £6 million for FY26.

Shepherd also discussed the potential upside from the delayed Defence Investment Plan (DIP), noting that once clarity is provided, major agreements could convert “very quickly,” creating acceleration opportunities.

In addition, SME Procure — now at minimum viable product stage — aims to streamline defence procurement, reduce costs and improve speed by digitally matching buyers and suppliers.

      <title>GCP Infrastructure Investments: 9% yield &amp; 15 years of dividends</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Philip Kent, CEO at Gravis and lead manager to GCP Infrastructure Investments PLC (LSE:GCP) joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more on the trust’s long-term performance, dividend track record and disciplined capital allocation strategy.

Kent outlined how GCP Infrastructure invests in UK-based infrastructure projects backed by public sector-supported revenues, with a focus on debt rather than equity. This approach is designed to provide investors with stable, sustainable income alongside capital preservation. He explained that the portfolio is underpinned by long-term contractual cash flows and amortising debt structures that naturally return capital over time.

Celebrating its 15th year since IPO, the trust has delivered a total NAV return of around 183% while maintaining a consistent dividend. The current dividend target stands at £0.07 per share, equating to roughly a 9% yield based on a share price of approximately £0.78. Kent said, “We’ve paid a stable, sustainable dividend for the last 15 years,” highlighting the trust’s income focus.

The portfolio is diversified across renewables (around 57%), PFI/PPP assets (approximately 25%), and supported social housing. Kent also discussed the trust’s risk framework, covering market, credit, operational and legal/regulatory risks, as well as the importance of disciplined capital allocation given sector-wide discounts to NAV.

Watch the full interview to understand how GCP Infrastructure balances income generation with capital preservation, and what investors should monitor in the year ahead.

      <title>Arizona Gold &amp; Silver refines Perry Zone model at Philadelphia Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arizona Gold and Silver CEO Mike Stark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss new assay results that have enhanced the company’s structural understanding of the Perry Zone gold system at its Philadelphia project in Arizona.

Stark said the latest core holes, PC25-159 and PC26-160, were drilled along the northern and southern limits of the Perry Zone. Both holes intersected low gold grades within previously unrecognized east-west fault structures. These faults are now interpreted to vertically offset mineralization hosted within the Arabian Fault, the primary structural control for all known gold mineralization at Philadelphia.


As a result of this new data, the Perry Zone is now defined as having an approximate strike length of 165 metres, truncated by sub east-west structural complexities that appear to crosscut and displace the Arabian Fault system. The company believes hole PC25-159 was drilled structurally above the main mineralizing system, meaning the depth to the core “pay zone” remains to be determined.

Similarly, hole PC26-160 is interpreted to have encountered a down-dropped structural block to the south, suggesting it too may have been drilled above the most prospective portion of the system.
Drilling is ongoing, with the current rig testing the shallower, up-dip portion of the Perry Zone above hole PC25-156. At depth, the company is awaiting a drill permit to construct new drill pads to the east. Stark said the permit is expected within months and will allow for cost-effective step-out drilling designed to test the system at depth.

Based on the evolving structural model, Arizona Gold & Silver believes gold grades are likely to persist in that direction, potentially expanding the footprint of the Perry Zone mineralization.

      <title>Trust Stamp enables real-time DMV verification for IDetect ID scanners</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Trust Stamp President Andrew Gowasack and IDetect, Inc. CEO Michael Sengstaken joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company will provide IDetect with access to the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) Driver’s License Data Verification (DLDV) service.

Gowasack explained that the integration significantly enhances IDetect’s existing suite of ID scanning and entrance security solutions, which have been deployed across more than 70 industries over the past 25 years. IDetect’s client roster includes major organizations such as Marriott International, Harrah's Casinos, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

While traditional ID scanners authenticate physical security features embedded in identification cards, the addition of AAMVA’s DLDV service introduces a critical second layer of protection. Through real-time verification, IDetect users can now confirm that the information presented on a driver’s license matches official records maintained by the issuing motor vehicle agency. This capability is particularly important in combating sophisticated, high-quality forgeries that may pass visual or optical inspection but fail database validation.

Sengstaken told Proactive the DLDV integration will be available across IDetect’s full range of hardware and software platforms, delivering what the company describes as a seamless, approximately one-second verification process. The enhanced system is designed to help businesses safeguard liquor licenses, reduce insurance and compliance risks, and strengthen entrance security protocols.

Management believes the collaboration reinforces Trust Stamp’s position in advanced identity verification while providing IDetect customers with a higher standard of fraud prevention and regulatory compliance.

      <itunes:summary>Trust Stamp President Andrew Gowasack and IDetect, Inc. CEO Michael Sengstaken joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company will provide IDetect with access to the American Association of Motor Vehicle Administrators (AAMVA) Driver’s License Data Verification (DLDV) service.

Gowasack explained that the integration significantly enhances IDetect’s existing suite of ID scanning and entrance security solutions, which have been deployed across more than 70 industries over the past 25 years. IDetect’s client roster includes major organizations such as Marriott International, Harrah&apos;s Casinos, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

While traditional ID scanners authenticate physical security features embedded in identification cards, the addition of AAMVA’s DLDV service introduces a critical second layer of protection. Through real-time verification, IDetect users can now confirm that the information presented on a driver’s license matches official records maintained by the issuing motor vehicle agency. This capability is particularly important in combating sophisticated, high-quality forgeries that may pass visual or optical inspection but fail database validation.

Sengstaken told Proactive the DLDV integration will be available across IDetect’s full range of hardware and software platforms, delivering what the company describes as a seamless, approximately one-second verification process. The enhanced system is designed to help businesses safeguard liquor licenses, reduce insurance and compliance risks, and strengthen entrance security protocols.

Management believes the collaboration reinforces Trust Stamp’s position in advanced identity verification while providing IDetect customers with a higher standard of fraud prevention and regulatory compliance.

      <title>Millennial Potash secures Haute Banio permit, expands Mayumba footprint</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Millennial Potash Chairman Farhad Abasov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has been granted the “Haute Banio” exploration permit, located adjacent to its core Mayumba exploration permit in southern Gabon. The Haute Banio exploration permit covers 261.39 square kilometres and is contiguous with the Mayumba permit. 

Strategically positioned, it fills the gap between the existing Mayumba exploration area and the Atlantic Ocean to the north, as well as the border with the Republic of the Congo to the south. A portion of the new permit also encompasses marine coastline areas, significantly enhancing the company’s coastal access.

Abasov explained that the addition of the Haute Banio permit is strategically important to Millennial’s long-term development plans. With this award, the company now controls all of the western coastline areas tied to the project. He noted that the issuance of the permit reflects strong and ongoing support from the Gabonese government and recognizes the substantial progress the company has made advancing the Mayumba project.

Drilling planned for the second half of 2026 will target the westward extension of the thick potash mineralization identified at Banio to date. The new permit also provides direct ocean access for potential future development requirements stemming from the ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study. In addition, it includes access to an existing road linking the project area to the local airport and the nearby town of Mayumba, supporting future logistics planning.

The Haute Banio exploration permit is valid for an initial three-year term and may be renewed for two additional three-year periods. Millennial has committed to a comprehensive exploration program that will include geological and geophysical studies, seismic data reinterpretation, drilling, a new resource estimate, and the development of an Environmental and Social Management Plan.

With this addition, Millennial Potash now controls approximately 1,500 square kilometres of exploration ground, fully covering the prospective potash-bearing units in Gabon and further consolidating its position in the region.

      <title>Happy Creek rebrands to Fox Tungsten, begins trading as &quot;FOXT&quot; Feb 25th</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Happy Creek Minerals CEO Steve Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company will be changing its corporate name to Fox Tungsten Ltd.Effective at the opening of trading on Wednesday, February 25th, the company’s common shares will begin trading on the TSX Venture Exchange under the new name and trading symbol “FOXT.”

Shareholders holding existing Happy Creek share certificates may request replacement certificates reflecting the new company name. However, new certificates are not required and will not be issued automatically. The company confirmed there will be no changes to its capitalization structure as a result of the name change.

Gray explained the rebrand better aligns the company’s identity with its flagship Fox Tungsten Project, one of the highest-grade tungsten resources globally. Located in central British Columbia with access to nearby roads and power infrastructure, the 100%-owned critical minerals deposit is strategically positioned to help address the West’s urgent tungsten supply deficit.

The company’s 2025 drill program successfully extended mineralization at the RC and BN zones. An expanded exploration program is planned for 2026, aimed at further growing the resource base and advancing the project toward a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

      <title>Century Lithium updated study delivers $4B NPV for Angel Island Project while reducing initial costs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Century Lithium CEO Bill Willoughby joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the results of an updated NI 43-101 compliant Feasibility Study for the company’s 100%-owned Angel Island Lithium Project in Nevada.

The 2026 Feasibility Study incorporates additional metallurgical testing, engineering optimization, refinement of the mine plan, and updated capital and operating cost estimates. The updated analysis demonstrates strong project economics, highlighted by an after-tax net present value (NPV) of $4.01 billion. Importantly, no material changes were made to the Mineral Resource or Mineral Reserve estimates referenced in the prior NI 43-101 Technical Report.

Willoughby explained that the 2026 study reconfigures Angel Island into a streamlined two-phase development plan. Phase I envisions a 7,500 tonnes-per-day (tpd) operation, followed by an expansion to 15,000 tpd in Phase II. The third expansion phase contemplated in the 2024 study has been removed, simplifying project execution and significantly reducing overall upfront capital requirements.

Under the updated model, the after-tax NPV of $4.01 billion is based on price assumptions of $24,000 per tonne for lithium carbonate and $750 per dry metric tonne for sodium hydroxide. The project is positioned as a large, long-life U.S.-based lithium development, with Proven and Probable Reserves supporting a mine life exceeding 60 years.

Capital requirements have been substantially reduced. Phase I initial capital costs are now estimated at $997 million, down from $1.537 billion in the 2024 study. Phase II expansion capital is projected at $660 million, compared to $651 million previously. Operating efficiencies have also improved, with average operating costs estimated at $22.45 per tonne of mill feed, equivalent to $4,389 per tonne of lithium carbonate — a significant reduction from $8,223 per tonne outlined in the prior study.

Century Lithium plans to continue advancing Angel Island toward development through submission of its plan of operations, ongoing permitting efforts, detailed engineering work, and engagement with potential strategic and financial partners as the project moves toward a construction decision.

The award completes the acquisition cycle and clears the way for near-term field deployment of the systems in support of Department of Homeland Security maritime security missions. The company expects the order to contribute to near-term revenue as installation and deployment activities begin.

Stratmann explained that under the scope of work, OPT will manage deployment, commissioning, and operational activation to ensure the systems are fully integrated and mission-ready. The buoys are expected to enter active service shortly after installation. Designed to provide persistent offshore presence, the systems enhance maritime surveillance, situational awareness, and operational effectiveness in challenging ocean environments. 
OPT’s role spans manufacturing through installation and in-field support, ensuring continuity from delivery to operational performance.

In addition, Stratmann shared that the company has shipped a WAM-V® autonomous surface vehicle to Greece to support ongoing customer operations and regional field activities. The deployment expands OPT’s international footprint and underscores continued engagement across both defense and commercial maritime markets.
The company has also advanced its integrated docking and charging program from prototype to full-scale build, incorporating autonomous docking and redeployment capabilities. Orders have been placed for key components to support system integration and open-water validation as OPT moves toward launching its first early access commercial solution, currently targeted for 2026.

      <title>Helix Exploration CEO on first Montana helium output</title>
      <description><![CDATA[HeLIX Exploration PLC (AIM:HEX, OTCQB:HHEXF) CEO Bo Sears talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnionabout the company achieving a major milestone: becoming the first helium producer in the state of Montana.

Sears addressed the market reaction to the production news and put the achievement into perspective, highlighting the speed of execution since IPO. He noted that from April 2024 to today, no other publicly traded helium explorer has reached production in just 22 months. He described the development as “an incredible milestone for our company.”

The company’s strategy has been to enter production before finalising offtake agreements. Sears explained that helium buyers want proof of supply before signing contracts, stating, “It has always been our mandate to get into production and then enter into those offtake agreements.” He added that off-takers will be visiting the site in the coming weeks as HeLIX begins selling helium.

At the Rudyard project, the plant is producing ultra-high purity helium designed for five-nine purity (99.999%). Sears emphasised that this level of purity opens broader market opportunities beyond standard balloon-grade helium.

Currently, three wells are tied into the plant, with expected production of approximately 1,500 Mcf per day to start, scaling up toward 6,000,000 cubic feet per day of input gas as additional wells are connected.

Watch the full interview to hear Sears discuss production ramp-up plans, offtake strategy, and operational updates from Montana.

      <title>EnWave Q1 revenue and royalties rise as gross margin expands to 37%</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EnWave Corporation CEO Brent Charleton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s financial results for the first quarter ended December 31, 2025, highlighting revenue growth, rising royalties, and improved margins compared to the same period last year.

The company reported higher Q1 revenue year-over-year, driven primarily by large-scale machine sales and increased royalty income. During the quarter, EnWave commissioned one large-scale machine and completed the fabrication of two additional large-scale machines under contract, contributing to the revenue uplift.

Charleton noted that royalties—excluding exclusivity payments—increased by 18% compared to the same quarter in the prior year. Total reported royalty revenue for Q1 2026 rose 12% year-over-year. The growth was attributed to a combination of factors, including an expanding base of royalty partners, increased product sales, higher partner production volumes, and exclusivity payments recognized during the quarter.

Profitability metrics also improved meaningfully. Gross margin for Q1 2026 reached 37%, up from 29% in the three months ended Q1 2025. Management attributed the margin expansion to a stronger contribution from higher-margin royalty revenue as well as the production mix of large-scale machines at various stages of fabrication and commissioning.

Operationally, the quarter included several strategic milestones, with EnWave signing new contracts across multiple jurisdictions, including North Queensland, Australia, New Zealand, and the United States. The company said these agreements further expand its global footprint and reinforce demand for its proprietary dehydration technology platform.

      <title>M2i Global, SMX partner to pilot secure critical minerals traceability</title>
      <description><![CDATA[M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has entered into a Strategic Collaboration Agreement with SMX (Security Matters) PLC, a publicly traded firm focused on supply chain traceability and integrity solutions.

Rosende explained that the agreement establishes a structured collaboration aimed at supporting a pilot initiative that integrates physical and digital shipment-assurance technologies. The program will leverage the M2i CAINO digital backbone and the M2i Metals Marketplace to enable end-to-end digital traceability, custody validation, and authenticated commercialization workflows.

The partnership is designed to establish a new benchmark for trusted critical mineral commerce by directly linking physical shipment assurance measures with evidence-backed digital custody records and secure marketplace transactions. Through the pilot initiative, M2i and SMX intend to demonstrate how allied-source mineral shipments can be verified, tracked, and commercialized with integrity from point of origin through to receipt in the United States.

As part of the initial operational demonstration, M2i plans to execute a phased pilot shipment program beginning with controlled material movements from Western Australia into the U.S. The pilot will test the integrated system under real-world conditions to validate traceability, custody controls, and commerce integration.

The initiative is expected to incorporate layered shipment-assurance measures, including physical tagging and instrumentation, tamper-evident controls, and structured verification evidence capture at key custody transfer points. The objective is to establish a practical and scalable framework aimed at reducing provenance dilution, commingling risk, and chain-of-custody ambiguity—issues that have historically challenged transparency and trust within global critical mineral supply chains.

      <title>Free-from market growth: Tooru CEO maps the next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tooru PLC (AIM:TOO, FRA:73N) CEO Scott Livingston talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent fundraising, growth strategy, and expansion across major UK retailers in the fast-growing free-from and wellness markets.

The company successfully raised over £1 million through a placing, WRAP Retail Offer and debt conversion without offering a discount or warrants. Livingston said this “should give confidence that obviously we have support,” highlighting backing from major long-term institutional investors. The funds strengthen the parent company's balance sheet while enabling operating subsidiaries to accelerate growth.

Pulsin is receiving additional firepower to support stock levels amid rising demand. The brand is refreshing its positioning, expanding international distribution efforts, and significantly increasing retail presence, including an acceleration in Co-op stores from 80 to 1,000 locations. Meanwhile, OAF has secured a listing with ASDA and is expanding distribution in Tesco. Juvela remains in a solid cash position following refinancing with Shawbrook.

Looking ahead, Tooru is focused on expanding distribution points in major retailers and pursuing acquisitions within the free-from and wellness space. Livingston explained the company is targeting “main challenger brands that are on the shelf in snacking and nutrition or anything related to free from and wellness.” The strategy centres on maintaining a consistent consumer demographic while leveraging shared marketing and operational efficiencies.

With new product launches in the pipeline and retail momentum building, Tooru is positioning itself for accelerated growth in 2026.

      <title>VivoPower secures $30M PIPE to accelerate sovereign AI Data center strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[VivoPower International PLC Chief Investment Officer Alex Cuppage joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the successful completion of a $30 million strategic private investment in public equity (PIPE).
The financing is structured as convertible preference shares priced at $6.80 per share, carrying a 6% annual payment-in-kind (PIK) coupon. The structure reflects long-term strategic alignment with VivoPower’s Sovereign AI growth strategy and provides the company with additional capital to accelerate expansion.

Cuppage noted that the PIPE attracted leading technology and infrastructure investors, including New York-based Blue Sky Capital, which is widely recognized as an early investor in AI-focused data centers globally. In addition, prominent sovereign family offices from the GCC region participated in the financing, alongside VivoPower Chairman Kevin Chin.

The company said the premium pricing reflects investor conviction in VivoPower’s strategic expansion into AI infrastructure designed for sovereign nations and hyperscale operators. Proceeds from the financing will primarily be used to scale VivoPower’s high-performance AI data center portfolio, with additional funds allocated for general working capital purposes.

VivoPower’s broader mission is to position itself as an independent and trusted partner for sovereign nations seeking to develop and operate sustainable data center infrastructure. By enabling sovereign control over power, data, and national intelligence capabilities, the company aims to bridge the gap between energy assets and AI ambitions. Through its Power-to-X infrastructure model, VivoPower seeks to support nations in building and controlling their own domestic intelligence hubs, aligned with long-term digital sovereignty objectives.

      <title>Chariot announces &apos;transformative&apos; Angolan oil deal, with support from Shell</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Chariot Ltd (AIM:CHAR, OTC:OIGLF) CEO Adonis Pouroulis talked with Proactive's Stepyen Gunnion about the company’s acquisition funding agreement to gain exposure to producing oil assets offshore Angola, marking what he described as a “transformative deal” for the business.

Chariot has announced plans to provide $12 million in funding, alongside transaction costs, to support Etu Energias in acquiring a 20% interest in Block 14 and a 10% interest in Block 14K offshore Angola. In return, Chariot will secure exposure to the economics of production equivalent to up to 4,000 barrels of oil per day, with funding to be repaid from future cash flows.

Pouroulis highlighted the strategic importance of the transaction, stating: “This is indeed a transformative deal. It is the seed of a company maker with this transaction. It transforms our narrative.” He added that the move delivers on the company’s stated objective of bringing oil production into its upstream portfolio.

The deal is supported by Shell Trading, which is providing an acquisition financing package of up to $170 million in exchange for future offtake. The assets are located in a prolific oil-producing region and have produced nearly one billion barrels to date, with Block 14 recently extended to 2038.

Adonis emphasised that Chariot remains committed to its Moroccan and Namibian assets while continuing plans to separate its renewable energy business. The company also confirmed an open offer for existing shareholders on the same terms as the placing.

      <itunes:subtitle>Chariot Ltd (AIM:CHAR, OTC:OIGLF) CEO Adonis Pouroulis talked with Proactive&apos;s Stepyen Gunnion about the company’s acquisition funding agreement to gain exposure to producing oil assets offshore Angola, marking what he described as a “transformative deal” for the business.

Chariot has announced plans to provide $12 million in funding, alongside transaction costs, to support Etu Energias in acquiring a 20% interest in Block 14 and a 10% interest in Block 14K offshore Angola. In return, Chariot will secure exposure to the economics of production equivalent to up to 4,000 barrels of oil per day, with funding to be repaid from future cash flows.

Pouroulis highlighted the strategic importance of the transaction, stating: “This is indeed a transformative deal. It is the seed of a company maker with this transaction. It transforms our narrative.” He added that the move delivers on the company’s stated objective of bringing oil production into its upstream portfolio.

The deal is supported by Shell Trading, which is providing an acquisition financing package of up to $170 million in exchange for future offtake. The assets are located in a prolific oil-producing region and have produced nearly one billion barrels to date, with Block 14 recently extended to 2038.

Adonis emphasised that Chariot remains committed to its Moroccan and Namibian assets while continuing plans to separate its renewable energy business. The company also confirmed an open offer for existing shareholders on the same terms as the placing.

      <title>Seraphim Space Investment Trust manager on NAV uplift as defence spending takes off</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Seraphim Space CEO and co-founder Mark Boggett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the Seraphim Space Investment Trust PLC (LSE:SSIT), including its recent portfolio revaluation, performance momentum and the powerful defence spending tailwinds driving growth across the space technology sector.

Boggett explained that Seraphim Space operates three funds across the capital stack, with the publicly listed investment trust focused on growth-stage space technology companies at Series B, C and D rounds. Over the past decade, the firm has invested in 46 companies, producing nine unicorns, five IPOs and just four failures.

The recent uplift was driven by the trust’s four largest holdings, including ICEYE, which secured a €1.7 billion contract with the German government. Boggett described ICEYE as a “poster child in the defence space industry,” highlighting its radar satellite capability that can monitor “every square meter of Earth every hour,” regardless of weather or time of day.

He pointed to a structural shift in European defence policy, with governments committing significant new budgets and accelerating procurement processes. Companies such as HawkEye 360 and D-Orbit have completed $150 million funding rounds at higher valuations, while UK-based ALL.SPACE has also seen a significant revaluation.

Boggett said, “These companies are winning giant contracts. They’re moving very quickly. The market’s moving in their favor and that’s being recognised in our share price.”

With the trust trading around net asset value and operating at a premium, Boggett suggested further upside as defence-led demand continues to accelerate.

      <title>NanoViricides advances toward fully funded Phase II MPox trial in DRC</title>
      <description><![CDATA[NanoViricides CEO Dr Anil Diwan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the filing of the company’s financial results for the quarter ended December 31, along with a corporate update highlighting progress on its lead antiviral candidate, NV-387. 

Dr. Diwan said the company is advancing NV-387—a novel broad-spectrum antiviral that represents a new class of antiviral drugs—toward a Phase II clinical trial. NanoViricides is preparing to initiate a Phase II human study to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of NV-387 as a treatment for MPox in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC).

The local regulatory authority, ACOREP, has already approved the Phase II clinical trial, subject to the completion of certain remaining requirements. The company reported that most of these conditions have been satisfied and is now focused on final site readiness and documentation necessary to formally launch the trial. Management stated that current funding is sufficient to execute and complete the planned Phase II study in the DRC according to its projections.

In parallel, NanoViricides has filed an application for Orphan Drug Designation for “NV-387 as a Treatment for MPox” with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Office of Orphan Products Development. If granted, orphan designation would provide incentives including tax credits for qualified clinical trial expenses, exemption from certain regulatory user fees, and the potential for seven years of market exclusivity following regulatory approval.

MPox is caused by infection with the MPXV virus, an orthopoxvirus. Currently, there is no drug specifically approved for the treatment of MPox. NV-387 has demonstrated strong antiviral effectiveness in a mouse model of dermal lethal infection using ectromelia virus, an orthopoxvirus closely related to the viruses responsible for smallpox and MPox.

The company also noted that NV-387 has successfully completed a Phase I human clinical trial, demonstrating safety and tolerability in healthy adults with no reported adverse events. Based on these results and preclinical efficacy data, NanoViricides believes NV-387 represents a promising clinical candidate for the treatment of MPox as it advances into mid-stage human trials.

      <title>Arizona Gold &amp; Silver expands mineralization at Philadelphia, plans Silverton drilling</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arizona Gold and Silver Senior Vice President of Exploration Dr Lex Lambeck joined Steve Darling from Proactive at the company’s Philadelphia Project to provide an update on active drilling and outline upcoming exploration plans in Nevada.

Speaking from the Philadelphia property in Arizona, Dr. Lambeck said the company is currently drilling hole 161 and has intersected what he described as “double the thickness of the mineralized interval that we’ve never seen before.” While laboratory assays are still pending to confirm grades, he noted that the visual mineralization has generated significant excitement within the exploration team and could represent a meaningful expansion of the system.

The company is also awaiting assay results from holes 159 and 160. Hole 159 stepped out approximately 60 metres north of hole 158, while hole 160 extended roughly 60 metres south of hole 156, continuing to demonstrate strike expansion and reinforcing the continuity of mineralization along the trend.
Beyond Philadelphia, Dr. Lambeck provided an update on the company’s Silverton property in Nevada. Strong surface samples grading antimony have prompted the company to prepare for a potential drill program. Drill contractors have been invited to submit bids, with plans targeting approximately 27 shallow holes ranging from 100 to 150 feet in depth to test identified antimony anomalies.

Dr. Lambeck also emphasized the broader scale potential at Philadelphia, highlighting the extent of the Arabian structure and noting that additional targets, including Red Hills, are planned for future drilling pending permitting approvals. The ongoing drill program and expanding target pipeline underscore the company’s strategy to grow mineralization at Philadelphia while advancing new opportunities at Silverton.

      <title>Nano One Materials Corp advances One-Pot LFP strategy, targets first commercial deals in 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nano One Materials Corp Chief Executive Officer Dan Blondal joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s strategic priorities and commercialization roadmap for 2026, highlighting growing demand for its One-Pot LFP technology solution across multiple high-growth sectors. 

Blondal said interest in Nano One’s lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode technology is building across three core application segments: Defence & National Security, Energy Storage Systems, and Electric Vehicles. Central to the company’s commercialization strategy is its LFP demonstration plant in Candiac, Quebec, which is designed to support first production and revenue generation while advancing its technology solutions and licensing business.

The company’s approximately 200-tonne-per-annum Pilot Line is already operational and producing material for customer sampling, continuous process optimization, and small-scale commercial sales. Management is targeting its first commercial agreements by the end of 2026.

Meanwhile, the larger Demonstration Line is currently operating manually using a full-scale reactor, with automation upgrades underway. Once commissioned, the facility is expected to reach approximately 800 tonnes per annum of capacity in the first half of 2027, marking a significant step toward scaled production.

Nano One is also advancing a licensing-focused growth strategy aimed at addressing the emerging global demand for localized, diversified LFP supply chains. The company markets its One-Pot technology directly to existing cathode active material (CAM) producers as potential licensees. The solution is positioned to provide a cost-competitive, scalable process that offers a technological edge while supporting supply chain resilience and localization in emerging markets worldwide.

In support of its commercialization push, Nano One announced key executive leadership changes. Alex Holmes has been appointed President and Chief Strategy Officer, bringing extensive capital markets and corporate leadership experience. Denis Geoffroy has been named Chief Operating Officer and will focus on accelerating the path to commercialization, drawing on decades of leadership in the battery materials sector.

Blondal emphasized that these strategic initiatives and leadership appointments position Nano One to capitalize on accelerating global demand for LFP cathode materials and to drive long-term growth through both production and licensing opportunities.

      <itunes:summary>Nano One Materials Corp Chief Executive Officer Dan Blondal joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s strategic priorities and commercialization roadmap for 2026, highlighting growing demand for its One-Pot LFP technology solution across multiple high-growth sectors. 

Blondal said interest in Nano One’s lithium iron phosphate (LFP) cathode technology is building across three core application segments: Defence &amp; National Security, Energy Storage Systems, and Electric Vehicles. Central to the company’s commercialization strategy is its LFP demonstration plant in Candiac, Quebec, which is designed to support first production and revenue generation while advancing its technology solutions and licensing business.

The company’s approximately 200-tonne-per-annum Pilot Line is already operational and producing material for customer sampling, continuous process optimization, and small-scale commercial sales. Management is targeting its first commercial agreements by the end of 2026.

Meanwhile, the larger Demonstration Line is currently operating manually using a full-scale reactor, with automation upgrades underway. Once commissioned, the facility is expected to reach approximately 800 tonnes per annum of capacity in the first half of 2027, marking a significant step toward scaled production.

Nano One is also advancing a licensing-focused growth strategy aimed at addressing the emerging global demand for localized, diversified LFP supply chains. The company markets its One-Pot technology directly to existing cathode active material (CAM) producers as potential licensees. The solution is positioned to provide a cost-competitive, scalable process that offers a technological edge while supporting supply chain resilience and localization in emerging markets worldwide.

In support of its commercialization push, Nano One announced key executive leadership changes. Alex Holmes has been appointed President and Chief Strategy Officer, bringing extensive capital markets and corporate leadership experience. Denis Geoffroy has been named Chief Operating Officer and will focus on accelerating the path to commercialization, drawing on decades of leadership in the battery materials sector.

Blondal emphasized that these strategic initiatives and leadership appointments position Nano One to capitalize on accelerating global demand for LFP cathode materials and to drive long-term growth through both production and licensing opportunities.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai reports 59% revenue growth, 95% gross margins in Q3 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce financial results for the third quarter of 2026, highlighting what he described as a major financial and operational inflection point for the company.

Nextech3D.ai reported 59% year-over-year revenue growth, with revenue rising to $467,810 from $293,707 in the prior-year period. On a sequential basis, revenue increased 20%, signaling renewed momentum as the company exits its restructuring phase and enters a new revenue expansion cycle.
Gappelberg noted that the quarter reflects the company’s successful transition into a scalable, platform-driven growth model powered by artificial intelligence, enterprise software, and recurring revenue streams. The growth was attributed to accelerating enterprise adoption and expanding deployments of Nextech3D.ai’s AI-powered event platform.

Gross margins reached a record 95%, up sharply from 41% in the same quarter last year—a dramatic 54-point improvement. Sequentially, margins improved from 88% in Q2, underscoring enhanced platform efficiency and improving revenue quality. Management said the strong margin profile reflects Nextech3D.ai’s evolution into a highly scalable, software-driven business with significant operating leverage and SaaS-like economics.

Deferred revenue increased 21% to $558,000, indicating growing contracted revenue and strengthening enterprise commitments. Meanwhile, total assets rose 73% to $2.19 million, reflecting continued platform expansion and an improving financial foundation as the company scales its enterprise event technology platform.

Overall, the quarter marks one of Nextech3D.ai’s strongest year-over-year growth performances and reinforces management’s view that the company has successfully pivoted toward a sustainable, high-margin recurring revenue model.

      <title>Connecting Excellence CEO on OTCQB debut &amp; business strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Connecting Excellence Group Plc (AQSE:XCE, OTCQB:XCELF) CEO Scott Ellam talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s international executive recruitment business and its disciplined Bitcoin treasury strategy as the company started trading on the OTCQB market in the US under the ticker 'XCELF.'

Connecting Excellence operates as an international executive recruitment firm placing senior-level professionals across consulting, logistics, engineering and technology sectors worldwide. Ellam explained that a significant portion of revenue comes from US clients and candidates, with placements including US sales directors, UK managing directors and senior consulting roles.

Ellam outlined how the company began acquiring Bitcoin with surplus cash flows in 2021, during a period of price weakness. He said revenues were increasing at more than 30% compound annual growth during that time, allowing the company to accumulate Bitcoin while growing an operating business that is “uncorrelated to Bitcoin.”

The company has built a capital markets-focused board ahead of entering the public markets in December, including digital asset and pension fund expertise. Ellam stated: “We have a long-term thesis in Bitcoin that the value of Bitcoin will go up over the next 5, 10, 15, 20 years and beyond and begin being used as a reserve asset, not just in corporations but in nation states.”

With around 30% of revenue already generated in the US, Connecting Excellence joined the OTCQB to broaden access to US investors. The company is also engaged with institutions regarding capital raising and increasing Bitcoin per share.

Looking ahead, key milestones include strategic hiring, further Bitcoin accumulation with a stated ambition to reach 1,000 Bitcoin when beneficial to shareholders, and potential preparation for a main market listing.

      <title>Pan African Resources CEO on record H1 performance on soaring gold price and production</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pan African Resources PLC (LSE:PAF, OTCQX:PAFRY, JSE:PAN) CEO Cobus Loots talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s record first-half performance, reporting profits of US$147.8 million alongside a 51% increase in gold production.

Loots said the gold price provided support, though the company achieved strong results even while receiving an average gold price below spot. He highlighted that production growth was the major catalyst, driven by a full period of output from MTR and contributions from Tennant. The company now expects full-year production guidance of 275,000oz to 292,000oz, implying around a 10% stronger second half.

Pan African Resources also reduced net debt by nearly 70% and expects to be net cash by the end of February. Loots emphasised that this financial strength will not alter the company’s disciplined capital allocation strategy, stating the focus remains on “the right projects, focusing on cost control and generating excellent returns for our shareholders.”

On growth projects, Loots pointed to Royal Sheba, Soweto Cluster, and particularly the Poplar project. He described Poplar as “a world-class ore body… more than 6,000,000oz at seven grams per tonne,” adding that it represents “100,000oz plus of annual production.” In Australia, the company aims to grow production from 50,000oz to 100,000oz over the next three years.

Despite higher first-half all-in sustaining costs, management expects unit costs to fall in H2 as production increases and renewable energy initiatives support longer-term efficiencies.

Loots emphasised that this financial strength will not alter the company’s disciplined capital allocation strategy, stating the focus remains on “the right projects, focusing on cost control and generating excellent returns for our shareholders.”

On growth projects, Loots pointed to Royal Sheba, Soweto Cluster, and particularly the Poplar project. He described Poplar as “a world-class ore body… more than 6,000,000oz at seven grams per tonne,” adding that it represents “100,000oz plus of annual production.” In Australia, the company aims to grow production from 50,000oz to 100,000oz over the next three years.

Despite higher first-half all-in sustaining costs, management expects unit costs to fall in H2 as production increases and renewable energy initiatives support longer-term efficiencies.

      <title>Great Southern Copper CEO on &apos;fantastic&apos; results from Mostaza deposit at Cerro Negro</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Great Southern Copper PLC (LSE:GSCU) CEO Sam Garrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about encouraging new drill results from the Mostaza deposit at the Cerro Negro project in Chile, highlighting high-grade copper lenses and growing scale potential at depth.

Garrett described the latest results as “fantastic” and “very significant,” explaining that early indications suggest the deposit “appears to be getting bigger with depth.” This development is particularly important when considering future mining options, even though those decisions remain further down the track.

A key focus of the discussion was the relationship between the newly identified Lens 5 mineralisation and the Monolith Zone, located approximately 400 metres away. Garrett said the mineralisation style in Lens 5 “looks pretty much exactly the same” as that observed in nearby holes and at Monolith, raising the possibility that the system could connect into a much larger continuous copper body. He noted that infill drilling will be required to determine whether the zones join up into what could be a “potentially large deposit.”

Surface outcrop samples at Monolith have returned grades running “over 2% copper,” reinforcing confidence in the system. As Garrett put it: “This is what happens when you start drilling, and when you keep drilling, you start finding new things.”

The company is now advancing Phase IV drilling, focusing on scout drilling around Monolith, expanding Lens 5, and progressing toward a resource at Lens 2. Infrastructure at Cerro Negro, including roads, power, nearby towns, and potential processing plant options, provides valuable optionality and could support earlier cash flow.

      <title>Seeing Machines CEO and CFO on H1 trading update, upcoming EBITDA inflection point</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Seeing Machines Ltd (AIM:SEE, OTC:SEEMF, FRA:M2Z) CEO Paul McGlone talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s FY2026 half-year trading update, highlighting accelerating automotive royalty growth, improving margins and the expected inflection to positive adjusted EBITDA in Q3. Joining him, CFO Martin Ive outlined balance sheet developments, cash flow expectations and refinancing plans.

McGlone said the results mark a critical turning point, noting the business is now just six months away from the EU’s General Safety Regulation (GSR) deadline, which mandates camera-based Driver Monitoring Systems (DMS) in all new EU vehicle registrations from July 7, 2026. He emphasised that while reported revenue was lower year-on-year due to timing effects, including the prior exclusive Magna licence and engineering programs transitioning into production, underlying automotive momentum remains strong.

Automotive units on the road increased 67% year-on-year, with annual recurring revenue reaching US$14 million. McGlone stated that adjusted EBITDA loss has narrowed significantly and that the company expects to move into positive adjusted EBITDA in the current quarter. As he summarised: “Regulation is driving automotive, automotive royalties are highly cash generative. Costs are out, profitable in the second half and a long runway of applications for our technology.”

Ive added that a US$14.1 million royalty receipt in January strengthened the balance sheet, with no anticipated need to raise capital. The company is progressing a receivables funding facility and a refinancing process for its convertible loan note.

Looking ahead, investors should focus on accelerating royalty volumes, Guardian growth, and positive cash flow generation in the second half of FY26.

      <title>HIVE Digital posts record Q3 revenue of $93.1M, expands AI and Bitcoin operations</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hive Digital Technologies Chief Financial Officer Darcy Daubaras joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s financial results for the third quarter ended December 31, 2025, highlighting record performance driven by growth across both its Bitcoin and AI infrastructure businesses.

HIVE reported record quarterly revenue of $93.1 million, representing 219% year-over-year growth and a 7% increase compared to the previous quarter. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter reached $5.7 million, while gross operating margin expanded significantly to $32.1 million—more than six times higher than the $5.3 million recorded in the same period last year.

Daubaras described the quarter as the strongest “dual-engine” growth period in the company’s history, reflecting rapid expansion in both digital asset mining and high-performance computing. During the quarter, HIVE scaled its Bitcoin hashrate fleet to an installed base of 25 Exahash per second (EH/s) as of December 31, 2025. The company generated 885 Bitcoin in the quarter, representing a 23% increase quarter over quarter.

In parallel, demand continues to accelerate for its AI cloud platform operated through subsidiary BUZZ High Performance Computing. In February, HIVE signed a two-year, $30 million contract for 504 Nvidia B200 GPUs, with deployment expected to go live in calendar Q1 2026 at Bell’s Tier-III data center facility.

Looking ahead, HIVE expects to operate a 540-megawatt energy footprint by year-end, including 440 megawatts currently operating and an additional 100 megawatts under a contracted power purchase agreement. Management noted that both existing and incremental megawatts will be strategically evaluated to maintain flexibility—allocating capacity toward either expanding Bitcoin exahash production or supporting AI and high-performance computing workloads, depending on which offers the highest value return.

The company’s continued investment in scalable infrastructure positions HIVE to capitalize on growing global demand for both blockchain validation services and AI-driven compute capacity.

      <title>Chesnara CEO on €110 million acquisition of Scottish Widows Europe, pipeline and future prospects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Chesnara PLC (LSE:CSN) CEO Steve Murray talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s €110 million acquisition of Scottish Widows Europe and why the deal is expected to generate approximately €250 million in lifetime cash.

Murray explained that lifetime cash generation remains a core attraction in Chesnara’s acquisition strategy. Of the €250 million expected from the transaction, around €100 million is forecast within the first five years, supporting early capital return alongside long-term cash flow sustainability. He noted that the deal marks Chesnara’s 16th acquisition in around 20 years, with roughly half completed in the last four to five years, highlighting an acceleration in M&A activity.

The acquisition also represents Chesnara’s first entry into Luxembourg, bringing with it a local administrative platform that could support further consolidation opportunities both within Luxembourg and across Europe. Murray pointed to the broader M&A pipeline, stating: “We continue to see a really big opportunity for the group,” citing a more active market and increased strategic focus from large financial institutions.

Chesnara now manages 1.4 million policies and administers around £18 billion in assets. Murray emphasised the company’s dividend track record, describing it as “the best dividend growth track record in UK and European insurance,” with a planned 6% increase for full-year 2025.

      <itunes:summary>Chesnara PLC (LSE:CSN) CEO Steve Murray talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s €110 million acquisition of Scottish Widows Europe and why the deal is expected to generate approximately €250 million in lifetime cash.

Murray explained that lifetime cash generation remains a core attraction in Chesnara’s acquisition strategy. Of the €250 million expected from the transaction, around €100 million is forecast within the first five years, supporting early capital return alongside long-term cash flow sustainability. He noted that the deal marks Chesnara’s 16th acquisition in around 20 years, with roughly half completed in the last four to five years, highlighting an acceleration in M&amp;A activity.

The acquisition also represents Chesnara’s first entry into Luxembourg, bringing with it a local administrative platform that could support further consolidation opportunities both within Luxembourg and across Europe. Murray pointed to the broader M&amp;A pipeline, stating: “We continue to see a really big opportunity for the group,” citing a more active market and increased strategic focus from large financial institutions.

Chesnara now manages 1.4 million policies and administers around £18 billion in assets. Murray emphasised the company’s dividend track record, describing it as “the best dividend growth track record in UK and European insurance,” with a planned 6% increase for full-year 2025.

      <title>Sovereign Metals CEO discusses MOU with Project Vault partner Traxys</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Sovereign Metals Ltd (ASX:SVM, OTCQX:SVMLF, AIM:SVML, FRA:SVM) managing director and CEO Frank Eagar talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the significance of a newly signed non-binding MoU with Traxys, recently selected for the US government’s $12 billion Project Vault, and what it could mean for the Kasiya Rutile-Graphite Project in Malawi.

Eagar explained that while Kasiya is widely recognised as a primary rutile project, it will also produce substantial volumes of natural flake graphite at a highly competitive incremental operating cost of $240 per tonne delivered onto a vessel. He said this cost positioning places Kasiya at the bottom of the cost curve and provides a strategic advantage in global graphite markets.

The MoU covers up to 80,000 tonnes per year of graphite, a meaningful portion of planned production. At full scale from year six, Kasiya is expected to produce around 250,000 tonnes of flake graphite annually, with approximately 140,000 tonnes per year during the first five years. Eagar stated: “It's going to be the world's largest producer of natural flake graphite.”

He also addressed China’s dominance in graphite supply, noting that Kasiya’s projected cost base creates the potential to compete effectively and position the project as a long-term, secure source of supply for US and global buyers.

Looking ahead, key milestones include completion of the definitive feasibility study, permitting in Malawi, a mining licence application, environmental approvals, and advancing project finance discussions, including collaboration with the International Finance Corporation.

      <title>Rome Resources CEO on latest Kalayi results; high-grade tin extended beneath existing resources</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest high-grade tin drilling results at the Kalayi project in the Democratic Republic of Congo, highlighting increasing intercept widths and improving hit rates beneath the maiden resource.

Barrett explained that recent drilling has delivered multiple significant intercepts, including multimetre intervals grading around 3% tin and up to 7.5% tin. He noted that historically, there were only two intercepts greater than two metres at over 2% tin, whereas in the latest seven holes, five have delivered comparable or stronger results. “We are increasing the hit rate… and we’re certainly increasing the widths of the intercept as we go,” he said, adding that the company is “seeing greater widths, and with really good cassiterite numbers within them.”

He also discussed the geological similarities between Kalayi and Alphamin’s nearby Mpama mine, located just eight kilometres away. According to Barrett, the style of cassiterite mineralisation and vein structures appears “very, very similar,” with Kalayi’s latest holes returning grades comparable to Mpama North.

Addressing tin prices and development strategy, Barrett said the company’s long-term plan is for Kalayi ore to be processed through the Alphamin facility at Bisie. While short-term price fluctuations may occur, he emphasised the structural supply-demand fundamentals: “The longer term demand is there, and there is a supply gap out in the next few years.”

Barrett also shared insights from Mining Indaba, noting growing optimism around critical minerals and increased investment interest in the DRC.

      <title>BUZZ HPC CEO Craig Tavares on Canada’s AI infrastructure play</title>
      <description><![CDATA[BUZZ HPC CEO Craig Tavares talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategy to build sovereign AI infrastructure in Canada while scaling contracted revenue with disciplined execution.

Tavares explained that BUZZ HPC, a subsidiary of HIVE Digital Technologies (TSX-V:HIVE, NASDAQ:HIVE, FRA:YO0, BVC:HIVECO), is “one of the very few Canadian owned and operated data center and GPU cloud service providers in Canada operating at scale,” positioning the company to provide secure, domestic AI compute capacity within Canadian borders. He framed sovereign AI as a strategic necessity, reducing reliance on foreign entities and strengthening national infrastructure.

The company recently secured $30 million in AI contracts and is targeting $140 million in annual recurring revenue (ARR). Tavares noted that BUZZ HPC has grown from roughly $1 million per month in ARR a year ago to over $3 million per month today, with a clear path toward $10 million per month. He emphasized a measured approach to growth, stating: “We’re not promising the moon. We’re really just compounding contracted revenue, one measure deployment at a time.”

Tavares also highlighted partnerships with Dell and Bell Canada, including participation in the Bell AI Fabric, reinforcing the company’s sovereign strategy and enterprise-grade standards. He stressed that long-term success in the AI cycle depends on operational discipline, adding, “The AI supercycle doesn’t reward the loudest CapEx announcement, it rewards operators who scale revenue before scaling risk.”

      <itunes:summary>Virtuix CEO Jan Goetgeluk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has officially joined the Made for Meta program from Meta Platforms. Through the partnership, Virtuix plans to make its Omni One 360-degree treadmill compatible with Meta Quest headsets and games, significantly expanding Omni One’s reach to the world’s largest XR user base.

Goetgeluk told Proactive that Meta operates one of the world’s largest immersive platforms, with tens of millions of Quest headsets already in the market and continued investment in extended reality technologies. The Made for Meta program authorizes select third-party manufacturers to develop high-quality, certified products that seamlessly integrate into the Meta ecosystem. Virtuix expects to provide further details on product compatibility and timing in the near future.

Omni One combines immersive virtual reality gameplay with meaningful physical activity. The omni-directional treadmill enables users to walk, run, crouch, and jump naturally in full 360 degrees within video games and other virtual environments, delivering a fully embodied gaming experience.

Virtuix continues to scale its proprietary full-body movement technology across consumer, enterprise, and defense markets. The company reported 138% year-over-year revenue growth for the six months ended September 30, 2025, and has manufacturing capacity in place to support production of up to 3,000 units per month—representing approximately $100 million in annual revenue potential as demand accelerates.

      <title>Buccaneer Energy CEO on oil production doubling at Pine Mills pilot</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Buccaneer Energy Plc (AIM:BUCE) CEO Paul Welch talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the successful organic oil recovery pilot project at its Pine Mills field in Texas, where production has doubled, and water cut has fallen sharply following nutrient injection.

Welch described how the organic oil recovery process targets mature waterflood reservoirs by stimulating naturally occurring microorganisms in the reservoir. After testing the reservoir, a tailored nutrient mix was injected, triggering a bloom that altered the interfacial tension between the rock face and trapped residual oil, allowing more oil to flow to the wellbore.

The results exceeded expectations. “We thought we'd get about a 30 to 40% increase… and at the moment, we've got 100% increase,” Welch said. One producing well saw its water cut fall from 80% to 0%, while another dropped from around 90% to approximately 40–50%.

The Pine Mills field, which has been under waterflood since the 1960s, is now producing closer to 100 barrels per day, up from around 80–85 barrels per day. Welch noted that if similar results were achieved field-wide, output could potentially rise significantly further.

Importantly, Welch highlighted that the treatment is cost-effective, roughly comparable to a standard workover. With operating costs around $20 per barrel and netbacks near $40 per barrel, higher volumes combined with lower water handling costs could enhance cash flow and reduce overall operating expenses.

Welch also discussed the potential to apply organic oil recovery across other assets, including Fouke and West Texas, subject to microbial testing. He suggested the approach could provide a competitive edge in acquiring mature waterflood assets.

      <title>Valereum &amp; Integra partner partner on tokenised real estate</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ) commercial director Mark Mariampillai and Integra Foundation core contributor Piyush Gupta talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about their partnership to accelerate tokenised real estate issuance and secondary trading on blockchain infrastructure.

VLRM Markets is advancing a multi-chain strategy focused on bringing high-quality real estate issuance onto the Integra blockchain, a Layer 1 network purpose-built for real-world assets. Mariampillai explained that by combining quality issuance with liquidity being built on Integra’s ecosystem, the collaboration enables investors to participate from primary issuance through to secondary market trading.

Gupta outlined the rationale behind building a specialised Layer 1 blockchain for real estate, noting that the asset class represents “75% of the global wealth” within a "$400 trillion market" that deserves its own ecosystem. He highlighted the success of a recent pilot project in Dubai, where title deed tokenisation enabled a single apartment to be sold across nearly 140 nationalities. The next phase now introduces secondary trading of fractionalised assets.

The partnership aims to enable institutions, high net worth individuals and sophisticated retail investors to buy and trade fractional interests in global property assets, ranging from Dubai skyscrapers to hospitality developments. According to Mariampillai, this structure removes paperwork, reduces legal ambiguity and enables near-instant settlement of both the asset and property deed on-chain.

Gupta added that Integra is developing tools such as Asset Passport and a global order book to improve transparency, trust and international distribution. With a reported $12 billion real estate pipeline awaiting tokenization, the companies see significant opportunity in scaling secondary markets for tokenized real-world assets.

      <title>Bitwise&apos;s Bradley Duke on whether Bitcoin’s pullback presents a buying opportunity</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bitwise Asset Management European head Bradley Duke talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about Bitcoin’s recent price weakness, institutional demand trends, and the company’s latest European exchange listings.

Duke explained that Bitcoin is currently trading around $67,000, representing a significant drawdown from its previous all-time high of approximately $125,000–$126,000. He attributed the initial sell-off to a combination of macro catalysts, including market reaction to tweets by Donald Trump, as well as expectations around Bitcoin’s historical four-year cycle. According to Duke, Bitcoin has historically delivered three strong years followed by one weaker year, leading some long-term holders to “front run the cycle” by selling ahead of what was expected to be a softer period.

He also highlighted a broader macro “risk-off” sentiment impacting tech stocks and metals, adding that crypto is often viewed as an extension of tech. However, Duke pointed to strong institutional support as a key underpinning for the asset. He noted that ETF buyers, ETP investors, and public companies holding Bitcoin as a treasury asset have continued to purchase more Bitcoin than the newly mined supply entering the market, in some periods, “about double the current new supply.”

Reflecting on previous downturns, Duke said investors who remained unemotional and bought during the 2018 and 2022 drawdowns saw significant long-term gains, adding: “Well, the boat came back to shore.”
Beyond market commentary, Duke outlined Bitwise’s recent listings on Nasdaq OMX Stockholm, Borsa Italiana, and XETRA Deutsche Börse, including its Bitcoin and gold ETP, BTCG.

      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) for the company’s Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project in southern Peru, marking a significant milestone as the company advances the asset toward a potential production decision.

Rushton told Proactive that the move to initiate a PFS follows the successful completion of a C$20 million equity financing and an extensive 82-hole infill drilling program carried out in 2025. The drill campaign intersected mineralization in 95% of the holes, substantially increasing geological confidence across the project.

The resulting updated Mineral Resource Estimate materially strengthened the company’s understanding of the deposit, confirming robust silver and copper mineralization across key zones and supporting the decision to progress Berenguela to the next stage of development. The PFS will build on this improved geological model and is expected to outline updated project economics, mine planning parameters, and development scenarios.

Berenguela currently hosts Measured and Indicated Resources of approximately 122.5 million ounces of silver and 717.1 million pounds of copper, positioning it as a significant polymetallic development asset in the region.

While advancing the PFS, Aftermath Silver plans to maintain exploration momentum across its portfolio. The company will continue drilling key exploration targets at Berenguela, as well as at its Challacollo silver project in Chile, as it seeks to expand resources and unlock additional value.

Rushton emphasized that the initiation of the PFS represents a pivotal step in transforming Berenguela from an advanced exploration asset into a potential future mining operation, while ongoing exploration efforts aim to further enhance the company’s growth pipeline.

      <title>Medicus Pharma cleared to launch Phase 2b Teverelix study in Prostate Cancer</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has received “study may proceed” clearance from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to initiate its Phase 2b dose-optimization study of Teverelix®, an investigational next-generation long-acting GnRH antagonist, in men with advanced prostate cancer (APC).

Bokhari told Proactive that the Teverelix trial will be conducted as a Phase 2b open-label study enrolling approximately 40 men with advanced prostate cancer who are appropriate candidates for androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Patients will undergo treatment for approximately 22 weeks. The study’s primary endpoint is confirmation of medical castration by Day 29, with sustained testosterone suppression maintained through Day 155. The company is targeting a probability of success exceeding 90% for achieving this endpoint.

Teverelix trifluoroacetate is formulated as a long-acting injectable GnRH antagonist delivered as a microcrystalline suspension. Unlike GnRH agonists—which typically cause an initial surge in testosterone levels before suppression—Teverelix works through immediate receptor antagonism. This mechanism enables rapid suppression of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and downstream sex hormones without the testosterone “flare” associated with agonist therapies.

This rapid suppression profile may hold particular clinical relevance for patients with advanced prostate cancer who are at elevated cardiovascular risk. Emerging evidence suggests that persistent FSH exposure in patients treated with GnRH agonists may contribute to adverse cardiovascular outcomes. While further clinical validation is required, prior Teverelix studies have not demonstrated significant cardiovascular safety signals to date.

Cardiovascular disease remains one of the leading causes of non-cancer mortality in men with prostate cancer, accounting for approximately 30% of deaths. The risk can be further amplified during androgen deprivation therapy, particularly among patients with pre-existing cardiovascular disease. Clinical and observational data indicate that such patients may face a five- to six-fold higher incidence of major adverse cardiovascular events (MACE) when treated with GnRH agonists compared to GnRH antagonists.
With FDA clearance now secured, Medicus Pharma is preparing to advance the Phase 2b study as it continues to evaluate Teverelix’s potential as a differentiated therapeutic option in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer.

      <title>Genflow CEO on promising dog longevity data, next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF, FRA:WQ5) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about preliminary interim results from the company’s SLAB clinical trial in aged dogs.

Leire explained that the SLAB trial is a randomised, blinded clinical study involving 24 dogs. The analysis remains preliminary, with the trial ongoing, but Leire said the strength and consistency of the early signals were unexpected.

The interim results showed that every treatment group outperformed the control group across multiple endpoints, including survival, muscle mass, frailty and quality of life. Leire emphasised that although the sample size is small - six dogs per arm - the consistency of outcomes across endpoints is meaningful in a rigorous clinical setting. As he explained, “such a consistency across endpoint in a small sample is often a very encouraging early sign.”

Importantly, the study reported zero adverse events, reinforcing the therapy’s safety and tolerability profile at this stage. The trial will continue for a further 90 days following the dosing period to assess the durability of effect. Additional data still to come include methylation clock analysis, which measures biological age at the molecular level, and comprehensive muscle biopsy histology.

Leire said the interim data is already strengthening partnership discussions within the animal health sector, noting that randomised clinical data shifts conversations significantly. While remaining appropriately cautious, he added that “the risk reward at this stage is interesting” for investors.

      <title>Seeing Machines CEO on Q2 KPIs, royalties growth &amp; GSR boost</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Seeing Machines Ltd (AIM:SEE, OTC:SEEMF) CEO Paul McGlone talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about second-quarter KPIs, highlighting growth in automotive royalties, Guardian hardware sales, and increasing annual recurring revenue as regulatory tailwinds build toward the July 2026 General Safety Regulation (GSR) deadline.

McGlone said he was “really pleased to see a positive growth number in this quarter,” noting confidence that regulatory drivers would translate into rising volumes. While the timing of step-change growth remains uncertain, he emphasised that OEM compliance preparations for GSR are well underway, with all required integration work already completed for the 2026 deadline.

The discussion addressed RFQ delays across the automotive market, which McGlone attributed to broader industry uncertainty. However, he clarified that these delays have no impact on GSR-related production volumes, as current RFQs would not affect revenue until 2028 at the earliest.

A key focus was Seeing Machines' guaranteed volume arrangements, which underpin cash flow. McGlone explained that these agreements set a revenue floor, ensuring minimum payments regardless of production variability. In Q2, actual volumes exceeded minimum guarantees for the first time under the arrangement, strengthening confidence for Q3 and Q4.

He added that incumbency advantages in Europe position the company strongly ahead of GSR enforcement, and reaffirmed expectations of cash flow breakeven in Q3 and profitability in the second half.

      <itunes:subtitle>Seeing Machines Ltd (AIM:SEE, OTC:SEEMF) CEO Paul McGlone talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about second-quarter KPIs, highlighting growth in automotive royalties, Guardian hardware sales, and increasing annual recurring revenue as regulatory tailwinds build toward the July 2026 General Safety Regulation (GSR) deadline.

McGlone said he was “really pleased to see a positive growth number in this quarter,” noting confidence that regulatory drivers would translate into rising volumes. While the timing of step-change growth remains uncertain, he emphasised that OEM compliance preparations for GSR are well underway, with all required integration work already completed for the 2026 deadline.

The discussion addressed RFQ delays across the automotive market, which McGlone attributed to broader industry uncertainty. However, he clarified that these delays have no impact on GSR-related production volumes, as current RFQs would not affect revenue until 2028 at the earliest.

A key focus was Seeing Machines&apos; guaranteed volume arrangements, which underpin cash flow. McGlone explained that these agreements set a revenue floor, ensuring minimum payments regardless of production variability. In Q2, actual volumes exceeded minimum guarantees for the first time under the arrangement, strengthening confidence for Q3 and Q4.

He added that incumbency advantages in Europe position the company strongly ahead of GSR enforcement, and reaffirmed expectations of cash flow breakeven in Q3 and profitability in the second half.

      <title>Record Resources advances Ngulu Oil Block plans in Gabon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Record Resources CEO Michael Judson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s significant oil exploration and development strategy in Gabon, with a particular focus on the large-scale Ngulu block.

Judson described Gabon as one of Africa’s most established oil-producing nations, highlighting its long production history, supportive regulatory environment, and strong infrastructure. He pointed to the nearby oil services hub of Port-Gentil as a key strategic advantage, providing access to experienced service providers, logistics, and export infrastructure.

The Ngulu block, which Judson described as comparable in size to “50 or 60 blocks in the Gulf of Mexico,” represents a substantial exploration opportunity. Record Resources currently holds a 20% interest in the project after bringing in ReconAfrica as a joint venture partner. Judson explained that the decision to partner was strategic, noting that ReconAfrica brings a significantly stronger balance sheet and has committed to funding the first US$20 million of project development costs.

The initial phase of activity will focus on appraising the historical Loba discovery, originally drilled by French companies in the 1970s. That well encountered approximately 70 metres of oil pay, but was never fully developed. The current plan includes drilling two appraisal wells, with the goal of rapidly establishing production of up to 10,000 barrels per day, potentially scaling to 20,000 barrels per day within two years if results are successful.

Judson also emphasized the value of extensive historical seismic data provided by the Gabonese government. He estimated that replicating such a dataset today could cost in excess of US$50 million, underscoring the strategic and financial advantage this information provides as the company advances its exploration program.

Beyond the Loba discovery, the Ngulu block hosts 28 additional identified prospects that remain untested. Combined with its proximity to existing discoveries and infrastructure, Judson described the project as being positioned in what he called “the last oil frontier” in Africa, offering significant upside potential as development progresses.

      <title>Amerant CIO bullish on Latin America debt</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Amerant Investments chief investment officer Baylor Lancaster-Samuel talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about shifting investor sentiment toward Latin American debt markets following recent US-led intervention in Venezuela and the broader implications for corporate credit spreads across the region.

Lancaster-Samuel explained that despite geopolitical tensions, credit markets have reacted constructively. Venezuelan sovereign and corporate debt have rallied on expectations of a potential restructuring, while the broader Latin American credit complex has tightened in sympathy. She noted that markets are pricing in optimism around renewed US strategic interest in the region and the possibility of stronger trade ties.

Addressing concerns about oil markets, Lancaster-Samuel emphasised that Venezuela accounts for less than 1% of global oil production, limiting immediate global supply impacts. While rehabilitation of Venezuelan oil infrastructure could increase production over time, she said the short-term effect on global markets remains minimal. Higher oil prices have provided some support to energy producers in countries such as Colombia.

She also highlighted idiosyncratic pressures in Brazil and noted that Mexican corporates may experience volatility ahead of USMCA renegotiations. However, her baseline expectation is that an agreement will ultimately be reached.

Importantly, Lancaster-Samuel stressed Amerant Investments’ disciplined investment approach: “We are very focused on fundamentals and analysis on each specific company.” She added that spreads in Latin America “tend to be wide” due to geopolitical fears, but investors are being compensated for that risk. Concluding, she stated, “We’re actually very positive on Latin America at this time.”

      <title>Quadrise CEO Peter Borup on MSAR trials and 2026 priorities</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quadrise PLC (AIM:QED) CEO Peter Borup joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio to discuss the company’s evolving strategy, market conditions and priorities as it advances marine fuel trials and prepares for commercial scale-up.

Borup reflected on his first months leading the company, explaining that while Quadrise already had a robust strategy in place, the rapidly changing global environment has required a sharper focus on execution speed and parallel workstreams. He said shipping customers are increasingly prioritising cost efficiency and operational resilience before committing to longer-term decarbonisation initiatives.

He highlighted that the suspension of a planned International Maritime Organisation regulation has not disrupted Quadrise’s progress, noting that the company’s MSAR technology remains competitive due to its low capital expenditure and operating costs. Borup said, “They’re looking for upfront profits, for improving the operations, for becoming low-cost manufacturers or operators, and then of course that means that we have to demonstrate that our product offers it.”

Borup outlined that securing trials remains the company’s most important near-term objective, particularly progressing the MSE project while simultaneously engaging with additional shipowners. He explained that many shipowners prefer not to be first movers, but Quadrise is identifying partners willing to take early adoption risks.

He also emphasised the importance of feedstock supply and refinery partnerships, stating that these stakeholders need to see long-term economic value before committing. Alongside trials, Quadrise is accelerating work on digitalisation and data use cases to strengthen its competitive position and prepare for future scaling.

Borup concluded that while the external environment remains complex, demonstrating measurable cost savings through Quadrise’s fuel solutions is central to unlocking broader adoption.

      <title>Standard Uranium launches maiden drill program at Corvo Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium CEO Jon Bey and Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive on site at the company’s Corvo Project, where its maiden drill campaign is now underway—marking a significant exploration milestone for the company.

The Corvo Uranium Project is subject to a three-year earn-in option agreement with Aventis Energy, under which Aventis may earn up to a 75% interest in the project by funding C$6 million in exploration expenditures over the earn-in period. The partnership provides financial support to aggressively advance exploration while allowing Standard Uranium to retain meaningful exposure to potential discovery success.

The inaugural drill program is expected to consist of approximately 2,500 to 3,000 metres across 8 to 10 diamond drill holes. The campaign is targeting shallow, high-grade basement-hosted uranium mineralization, beginning with the Manhattan target area. The drill program is anticipated to run for up to six weeks.

The company is utilizing road-accessible, skid-supported diamond drilling, focusing on high-priority uranium targets that have been refined through extensive geophysical surveys completed in 2025. These surveys—including advanced electromagnetic and gravity datasets—have significantly enhanced the company’s understanding of subsurface structures and uranium-bearing corridors across the property.

Drilling will specifically test prospective Xcite™ electromagnetic conductor corridors that are overlain by high-resolution ground gravity data. The exploration thesis centers on identifying major conductor trends associated with cross-cutting fault systems and confirmed surficial radioactivity within favourable uranium host rocks. Recent prospecting efforts have further validated these targets, confirming strong surface radioactivity in key areas.

Management emphasized that the integration of modern geophysics with surface confirmation work has sharpened drill targeting and positioned the company to effectively test multiple high-priority zones during this maiden campaign.

      <itunes:summary>Standard Uranium CEO Jon Bey and Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive on site at the company’s Corvo Project, where its maiden drill campaign is now underway—marking a significant exploration milestone for the company.

The Corvo Uranium Project is subject to a three-year earn-in option agreement with Aventis Energy, under which Aventis may earn up to a 75% interest in the project by funding C$6 million in exploration expenditures over the earn-in period. The partnership provides financial support to aggressively advance exploration while allowing Standard Uranium to retain meaningful exposure to potential discovery success.

The inaugural drill program is expected to consist of approximately 2,500 to 3,000 metres across 8 to 10 diamond drill holes. The campaign is targeting shallow, high-grade basement-hosted uranium mineralization, beginning with the Manhattan target area. The drill program is anticipated to run for up to six weeks.

The company is utilizing road-accessible, skid-supported diamond drilling, focusing on high-priority uranium targets that have been refined through extensive geophysical surveys completed in 2025. These surveys—including advanced electromagnetic and gravity datasets—have significantly enhanced the company’s understanding of subsurface structures and uranium-bearing corridors across the property.

Drilling will specifically test prospective Xcite™ electromagnetic conductor corridors that are overlain by high-resolution ground gravity data. The exploration thesis centers on identifying major conductor trends associated with cross-cutting fault systems and confirmed surficial radioactivity within favourable uranium host rocks. Recent prospecting efforts have further validated these targets, confirming strong surface radioactivity in key areas.

Management emphasized that the integration of modern geophysics with surface confirmation work has sharpened drill targeting and positioned the company to effectively test multiple high-priority zones during this maiden campaign.

      <title>Virtuix expands Omni One sales to Europe, launches across key EU markets</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Virtuix CEO Jan Goetgeluk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the expansion of Omni One sales into Europe, marking a major milestone in the company’s international growth strategy. Customers across key European markets, including Germany, the United Kingdom, France, and additional EU countries, can now place orders through Virtuix’s dedicated EU and UK online storefronts. Initial shipments to European customers are scheduled to begin between April 13 and April 24, 2026.

Goetgeluk told Proactive that the European rollout introduces Omni One Core, Virtuix’s PC-connected consumer system built specifically for SteamVR gaming. Omni One Core delivers true 360-degree physical movement, allowing players to walk, run, crouch, strafe, and move naturally inside virtual environments while using their existing PC-based VR headsets. The system is designed to enhance immersion by translating real-world motion directly into in-game movement.

Virtuix’s expansion into Europe is supported by a strategic regional partnership with Unbound XR, Europe’s leading online retailer of extended reality (XR) equipment. Under the agreement, Unbound XR will manage local fulfillment and logistics across both the EU and the UK, ensuring a smooth and efficient customer experience from ordering through delivery.

Often described as the “Peloton for gamers,” Omni One blends immersive gaming with meaningful physical activity. Depending on the intensity of gameplay, users can burn up to 700 calories per hour. Virtuix noted that some customers have reported dramatic fitness results, including weight loss of more than 40 pounds in just four months while regularly using Omni One.

To support rising global demand, Virtuix has established production capacity of up to 3,000 units per month, representing approximately $100 million in potential annual revenue. This scalable manufacturing capability positions the company to efficiently meet growing international interest. The company recently listed on the Nasdaq Stock Exchange and secured an $11 million investment, providing additional capital to expand sales and marketing efforts and support continued product innovation and development.

      <title>Arecor targets phase II insuling trial for 2026 after successful 2025</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arecor Therapeutics PLC's (AIM:AREC) CEO Sarah Howell talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s second-half performance and its strategic priorities heading into 2026, highlighting progress across its dual focus on diabetes and oral peptide delivery.

Howell explained that Arecor is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on drug development and enhanced delivery in the cardiometabolic space. The company’s lead asset, AT278, is described as a “new unique best-in-class ultra-concentrated (500 U/mL) and ultra-rapid-acting insulin for the treatment of diabetes,” and is now progressing through a 50:50 co-development partnership with Sequel Med Tech. The collaboration is preparing for a pivotal phase two clinical study, which Arecor is targeting to begin in the second half of 2026.

She noted that both teams share a vision of combining next-generation automated insulin delivery (AID) systems with next-generation insulin to improve patient outcomes and reduce disease management burden. Positive negotiations are also underway regarding a broader co-development and commercialisation partnership.

On the oral GLP-1 programme, Howell highlighted the challenge of bioavailability, pointing out that Rybelsus (semaglutide), an oral GLP-1 tablet for adults with type 2 diabetes, currently achieves “less than 1% oral bioavailability.” Arecor is conducting nonclinical pharmacokinetic studies aimed at improving bioavailability, which could be highly translatable across multiple peptide therapeutics.

Financially, the company reported unaudited revenues of £3.1 million for 2025 and cash of £6.1 million at year-end, extending the runway into the first half of 2027.

      <title>Genflow Biosciences CEO explains AGM RNS; says it&apos;s about negotiation from a position of power</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF, FRA:WQ5) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest RNS regarding its upcoming AGM and the strategic rationale behind authorising the potential issuance of shares ahead of clinical partnership discussions.

Leire addressed potential shareholder concerns, acknowledging that announcements involving share issuance can sometimes be interpreted as a fundraising signal. However, he clarified that the RNS is not about launching a capital raise, but about strengthening the company’s position in ongoing and future negotiations with major pharmaceutical partners.

He explained that in biotech, financial flexibility translates directly into leverage. “In biotech, cash is not just money, it's negotiating power,” Leire said. As a public company, Genflow's financial position is visible to potential partners, and Leire emphasised the importance of maintaining the ability to walk away from unfavourable terms.

He added that the company is not committing to using the full 38% share issuance authority and stressed that the underlying science remains unchanged. “Our science has not changed. What we're doing is just making sure that we capture the full value of our science,” he noted.

While acknowledging that markets dislike uncertainty, Leire stated that uncertainty is temporary, whereas signing a bad deal would have lasting consequences. He said the company is focused on optimising for the best long-term outcome and ensuring it is not forced into a suboptimal agreement.

      <title>S&amp;U sees confidence return in 2026 outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[S&U PLC (LSE:SUS) chairman Anthony Coombs talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s continued growth momentum, particularly across its Advantage and Aspen divisions. Following a challenging regulatory period, Coombs reported a significant rebound in confidence, performance, and strategic clarity.

The company is forecasting its receivables to grow from c. £400 million to £600 million in the coming years. “There’s significant growth available in the Advantage business, but also in Aspen too; but particularly the Advantage business,” Coombs explained. He attributed this optimism to tightened credit scoring, improved affordability criteria, and an ongoing AI project aimed at operational efficiency.

Despite a sluggish property market impacting Aspen, the division exceeded budget with record sales and collections. Coombs acknowledged market headwinds—ranging from political uncertainty to interest rate volatility—but emphasised the resilience of S&U’s approach and the discipline underpinning its lending practices.

Investors have taken notice, with the share price up 20%, reflecting renewed interest in smaller-cap financials and confidence in S&U’s forward trajectory. Coombs noted, “They recognise the business has come out of a difficult period and is now regaining its va va voom.”

Looking ahead to 2026, Coombs acknowledged economic uncertainties but maintained a positive outlook, provided conditions remain reasonably stable. He reiterated the company’s focus on responsible lending, honed over its 88-year history.

      <title>KEFI Gold and Copper: Tulu Kapi project fully funded, what’s next?</title>
      <description><![CDATA[KEFI Gold and Copper PLC (AIM:KEFI, OTC:KFFLF, FRA:KMSA) executive chairman Harry Anagnostaras-Adams talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about closing the company’s full US$340 million project financing following a US$20 million investment from Chancery Royalty, marking what he described as a confirmatory milestone rather than a fundamental change in strategy.

Speaking from the Mining Indaba in Cape Town, Anagnostaras-Adams explained that bank approvals secured in October covered 70% of development capital, allowing KEFI to optimise the remaining equity components. He highlighted that the company structured the financing largely at the subsidiary level, reducing dilution at the parent company. The latest US$20 million funding was arranged as an “equity ranking royalty,” designed so that payments are only made when dividends are payable to shareholders.

“A conventional royalty gets paid before operating expenses… this has been deliberately positioned so that it only gets paid when dividends can get paid,” he said, emphasising alignment with shareholder interests.

The project, valued at approximately US$400 million, has been financed in a way that minimised equity dilution, including contractor arrangements that reduced capital requirements to US$340 million and the participation of a major development bank for US$240 million.

Discussing valuation, Anagnostaras-Adams noted the stock has tripled over the past six months and said benchmarking against similar-stage gold companies suggests further potential upside, although he stressed that market movements are outside management’s control.

At Indaba, KEFI has been meeting contractors, capital providers, insurers and government representatives as mobilisation begins. “We’ve pressed the button, we’re launching fully,” he said, describing activity across site locations and contractor hubs globally.

      <title>Immunic showcases Phase 2 data on vidofludimus calcium at ACTRIMS Forum</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX) chief medical officer Dr Andreas Muehler talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest data presented at the ACTRIMS Forum in San Diego, highlighting findings from the company’s Phase 2 CALLIPER trial in progressive multiple sclerosis (MS).

The discussion centered on two posters shared at the conference: one focusing on MRI outcomes and the other exploring EBV (Epstein-Barr Virus) reactivation. Muehler explained that vidofludimus calcium demonstrated reductions in gadolinium-enhancing and T2 lesions as well as slowly expanding lesions (SELs) - indicators of acute and chronic inflammation in MS, respectively.

He outlined how MRI scans detected fewer SELs in treated patients, providing early clinical signs that vidofludimus calcium could address both peripheral and central nervous system inflammation in progressive MS.

“These data from the CALLIPER trial really show for the first time that there's also clinical evidence that vidofludimus calcium is causing a statistically significant reduction in EBV reactivation with treatment over time as compared to placebo,” said Muehler.

The EBV-related findings were particularly important, as mounting evidence suggests the virus is a necessary condition for MS. The company measured T-cell receptor repertoires and found a clear drop in EBV antigens among patients treated with vidofludimus calcium, suggesting reduced reactivation activity.

Looking ahead, Muehler pointed to 2026 as a potential pivotal year, with the company expecting readouts from its two phase 3 trials in relapsing MS involving over 2,000 patients. These results are expected to inform regulatory submissions and could bring Immunic’s treatment closer to market.

      <title>Novo Resources upgrades Belltopper target, plans 2026 drilling at Victorian Gold project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Novo Resources Corp Executive Co-Chairman Mike Spreadborough and Kas De Luca, the company's Exploration General Manager Kas De Luca joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s latest exploration target update at its Belltopper gold project in Victoria, highlighting a significant upgrade to the project’s potential and outlining plans for renewed drilling in 2026.

The Belltopper project is located approximately 60 kilometres south of Agnico Eagle’s Fosterville gold mine and lies within the highly prospective Bendigo Tectonic Zone, one of Victoria’s most prolific gold-producing regions. De Luca explained that Novo has undertaken an extensive integration of historical datasets, including legacy underground workings, into a comprehensive and detailed 3D geological model to better inform its exploration strategy.

“We’ve captured it all in a really good 3D model, so it really speaks to both the geology and the mineralisation,” De Luca said, noting that the model has significantly improved the company’s understanding of the controls on gold mineralisation at Belltopper.

As a result of this work, Novo has now defined eight prospective quartz reef systems across the project area, with several reefs extending up to two kilometres along strike at surface. The updated 2026 exploration target outlines a high-case scenario of up to 880,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 8.9 grams per tonne, representing a 48% increase compared with the previous exploration model.

Spreadborough said the upgraded exploration target and improved geological confidence have positioned the company to advance the project toward the next phase. Novo is now seeking the necessary approvals and is planning to recommence drilling in the third quarter of 2026.

“We’re planning to go back drilling starting in July and continue through the rest of the year,” Spreadborough said, adding that the upcoming program is designed to test the most prospective reefs identified by the updated model and further unlock the project’s discovery potential.

      <itunes:subtitle>Novo Resources Corp Executive Co-Chairman Mike Spreadborough and Kas De Luca, the company&apos;s Exploration General Manager Kas De Luca joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s latest exploration target update at its Belltopper gold project in Victoria, highlighting a significant upgrade to the project’s potential and outlining plans for renewed drilling in 2026.

The Belltopper project is located approximately 60 kilometres south of Agnico Eagle’s Fosterville gold mine and lies within the highly prospective Bendigo Tectonic Zone, one of Victoria’s most prolific gold-producing regions. De Luca explained that Novo has undertaken an extensive integration of historical datasets, including legacy underground workings, into a comprehensive and detailed 3D geological model to better inform its exploration strategy.

“We’ve captured it all in a really good 3D model, so it really speaks to both the geology and the mineralisation,” De Luca said, noting that the model has significantly improved the company’s understanding of the controls on gold mineralisation at Belltopper.

As a result of this work, Novo has now defined eight prospective quartz reef systems across the project area, with several reefs extending up to two kilometres along strike at surface. The updated 2026 exploration target outlines a high-case scenario of up to 880,000 ounces of gold at an average grade of 8.9 grams per tonne, representing a 48% increase compared with the previous exploration model.

Spreadborough said the upgraded exploration target and improved geological confidence have positioned the company to advance the project toward the next phase. Novo is now seeking the necessary approvals and is planning to recommence drilling in the third quarter of 2026.

“We’re planning to go back drilling starting in July and continue through the rest of the year,” Spreadborough said, adding that the upcoming program is designed to test the most prospective reefs identified by the updated model and further unlock the project’s discovery potential.

      <title>Ecora Royalties CEO on 150% base metals revenue surge and 2026 outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ecora Royalties PLC (LSE:ECOR, TSX:ECOR, OTCQX:ECRAF, FRA:HGR) CEO Marc Bishop Lafleche talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a pivotal period for the company as it enters a new phase of growth driven by base metals and critical minerals.

Lafleche explained that 2025 marked an inflection point for Ecora Royalties, with base metals and critical minerals representing the majority of portfolio revenue for the first time in at least 25 years. He described the year as a “landmark year,” highlighting that the performance was underpinned by a 150% increase in base metals revenue compared with 2024.

The CEO outlined how this momentum was driven by a combination of higher production volumes and favourable commodity prices. Strong volume growth was recorded at the Voisey’s Bay cobalt stream, as the mine continued to ramp up, with further increases expected. Additional growth came from the Mimbula copper stream, acquired in March last year, which is now operating at an annualised rate of around 20,000 tonnes of copper and is expected to expand further through 2026. Mantos Blancos also delivered a standout performance following debottlenecking initiatives completed in 2024.

Discussing the balance sheet, Bishop Lafleche noted that despite acquiring a US$50 million producing copper stream, net debt had reduced from nearly US$130 million to approximately US$85 million by the end of Q4, supported by strong cash flow generation. He said, “that really strong deleveraging is in part a function of the strong cash flow generation of this portfolio.”

Looking ahead, the CEO highlighted layered growth opportunities, including production increases at existing assets, brownfield expansions, near-term development projects such as Santo Domingo and West Musgrave, and longer-term catalysts across the portfolio. With supportive commodity prices for copper, cobalt and uranium, he said the outlook for Ecora Royalties remains very positive.

      <title>Leading Edge signs MoU to test innovative rare earth processing at Norra Kärr</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Leading Edge Materials CEO Kurt Budge joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news that the company’s wholly owned Swedish subsidiary, Greenna Mineral AB (GMAB), has signed a memorandum of understanding (MoU) with Ascension Earth Resources. The agreement marks an important step in evaluating innovative processing approaches for the Norra Kärr rare earth element (REE) project in Sweden.

Budge told Proactive that, under the terms of the MoU, GMAB will supply eudialyte mineral samples from the Norra Kärr deposit to Ascension. Ascension will carry out comprehensive laboratory analysis and metallurgical testwork using its proprietary processing technology. The collaboration is designed to assess both the technical and commercial feasibility of extracting and recovering rare earth elements—particularly heavy rare earth elements (HREEs)—from the HREE-bearing eudialyte mineralisation at Norra Kärr.

The Evaluation Project will focus on several key workstreams, including detailed mineralogical and chemical analysis of the eudialyte samples to determine their composition, purity, and recovery potential. Testwork will also examine leaching behaviour and assess the suitability of the mineralisation for commercial-scale processing. In parallel, Ascension will work on developing preliminary processing concepts specifically tailored to the unique characteristics of the Norra Kärr deposit, alongside an evaluation of the overall commercial viability of rare earth extraction.

Budge also shared with Proactive a significant near-term catalyst is the pending decision from Sweden’s mining inspectorate on a 25-year mining lease for Norra Kärr, following endorsements from two regional governments in December 2025. Budge described this lease as a potential "game changer" in terms of de-risking the project.

Additionally, Leading Edge is making progress on its Romanian Bihor Sud project, where a Competent Person’s Report has been completed, potentially paving the way for new investment.

      <title>Pluri showcases cell expansion platform as Resbiomed program advances</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pluri Inc CEO Yaky Yanay joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide deeper insight into the company’s proprietary cell expansion technology and its strategic growth across both therapeutics and food technology. Yanay noted that Pluri has invested more than two decades in developing what he described as one of the most advanced and effective cell expansion systems globally, supported by an intellectual property portfolio of approximately 250 patents.

Pluri currently operates across two core verticals. The first is focused on longevity, therapeutics, and aesthetics, where the company leverages placenta-derived cells to develop innovative biological solutions. The second vertical is centered on food technology, where Pluri’s scalable platform enables the production of cultivated meat, as well as key ingredients such as coffee, cocoa, and other agricultural inputs designed to address sustainability and supply chain challenges.

Yanay also told Proactive that the company has successfully completed the first phase of its collaboration with Resbiomed Technologies OOD, a European biotechnology company specializing in extracellular-matrix (ECM)–based biomaterials and biologics for regenerative medicine. The program is being executed through Pluri’s contract development and manufacturing organization, PluriCDMO™.

He explained that the initial phase of the collaboration focused on early-stage process development and feasibility assessments, all of which have now been completed. With these objectives achieved, the program is advancing into its next phase, representing a meaningful milestone in the partnership and setting the foundation for further development work.

As part of the collaboration, Pluri is applying its proprietary placenta-based technologies and advanced bioprocessing expertise to assist Resbiomed in establishing robust protocols for tissue extraction, separation, and processing. These processes are designed to preserve, concentrate, and enhance endogenous collagen components, enabling the production of high-quality biological materials suitable for a broad range of regenerative medicine applications. The work builds on Pluri’s proven experience in placenta-derived manufacturing while complementing Resbiomed’s specialized focus on ECM-based biomaterials.

Human collagen and collagen-rich materials are considered premium biological inputs due to strict sourcing, regulatory, and quality requirements. By combining Pluri’s scalable manufacturing capabilities with Resbiomed’s biomaterials expertise, the collaboration aims to help address these challenges and support the development of next-generation regenerative therapies.

From Pluri’s perspective, the agreement highlights the growing demand for PluriCDMO™ services among companies developing advanced cell- and tissue-based technologies. Yanay emphasized that the collaboration further strengthens PluriCDMO’s position as a trusted partner for biologics and advanced biomaterials programs that require reproducibility, scalability, and rigorous manufacturing controls as they progress toward clinical and commercial development.

      <itunes:summary>Pluri Inc CEO Yaky Yanay joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide deeper insight into the company’s proprietary cell expansion technology and its strategic growth across both therapeutics and food technology. Yanay noted that Pluri has invested more than two decades in developing what he described as one of the most advanced and effective cell expansion systems globally, supported by an intellectual property portfolio of approximately 250 patents.

Pluri currently operates across two core verticals. The first is focused on longevity, therapeutics, and aesthetics, where the company leverages placenta-derived cells to develop innovative biological solutions. The second vertical is centered on food technology, where Pluri’s scalable platform enables the production of cultivated meat, as well as key ingredients such as coffee, cocoa, and other agricultural inputs designed to address sustainability and supply chain challenges.

Yanay also told Proactive that the company has successfully completed the first phase of its collaboration with Resbiomed Technologies OOD, a European biotechnology company specializing in extracellular-matrix (ECM)–based biomaterials and biologics for regenerative medicine. The program is being executed through Pluri’s contract development and manufacturing organization, PluriCDMO™.

He explained that the initial phase of the collaboration focused on early-stage process development and feasibility assessments, all of which have now been completed. With these objectives achieved, the program is advancing into its next phase, representing a meaningful milestone in the partnership and setting the foundation for further development work.

As part of the collaboration, Pluri is applying its proprietary placenta-based technologies and advanced bioprocessing expertise to assist Resbiomed in establishing robust protocols for tissue extraction, separation, and processing. These processes are designed to preserve, concentrate, and enhance endogenous collagen components, enabling the production of high-quality biological materials suitable for a broad range of regenerative medicine applications. The work builds on Pluri’s proven experience in placenta-derived manufacturing while complementing Resbiomed’s specialized focus on ECM-based biomaterials.

Human collagen and collagen-rich materials are considered premium biological inputs due to strict sourcing, regulatory, and quality requirements. By combining Pluri’s scalable manufacturing capabilities with Resbiomed’s biomaterials expertise, the collaboration aims to help address these challenges and support the development of next-generation regenerative therapies.

From Pluri’s perspective, the agreement highlights the growing demand for PluriCDMO™ services among companies developing advanced cell- and tissue-based technologies.

      <title>Valereum &amp; RWA.io partner on digital asset shift</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ) Gary Cottle and RWA.io co-founder and chief strategy officer Adam Bouktil joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with more on the companies' newly-announced partnership. The collaboration aims to create a complete bridge between traditional financial markets and digital asset infrastructure, addressing persistent gaps in investor access and secondary market liquidity.

Cottle explained that while tokenisation technology has advanced, the full toolkit to structure, administer, arrange, and distribute tokenised products remains fragmented. “No one entity yet has cracked the ‘I can do all of those things’,” he said, emphasising the importance of Valereum sitting in the middle to connect best-in-class participants.

Bouktila discussed what drives adoption among issuers and investors, highlighting that access and education are now the key barriers—not technology or regulation. “You can bring any asset on chain. It doesn’t mean it’s going to sell,” he noted, stressing that product quality and structure are essential.

Both highlighted the potential of collateralised lending, with Bouktila calling the growth “incremental at first, maybe transformative once the rails are really in place.”

The partnership represents a strategic step toward building a fully integrated tokenized asset marketplace, blending institutional-grade regulatory compliance with emerging decentralized finance (DeFi) capabilities.

      <title>Novo Resources outlines 2026 exploration plans ith focus on Wyloo project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Novo Resources Corp Executive Co-Chairman Mike Spreadborough and Kas De Luca, the company's Exploration General Manager Kas De Luca joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s exploration roadmap for 2026, highlighting a series of planned programs across its Australian portfolio and providing an update on the highly prospective Wyloo project in Western Australia.

Spreadborough described Novo as a “pure greenfields explorer” with a diversified portfolio targeting both critical and precious metals. The company’s assets are spread across Western Australia, New South Wales, and Victoria, with a strategic focus on early-stage discovery. He noted that Novo trades primarily on the TSX, with approximately one-third of its shares also listed on the ASX, providing exposure to both North American and Australian investors.

A central focus of the discussion was the Wyloo project, located in the Pilbara region of Western Australia, which has emerged as a key gold-silver-antimony target for the company. De Luca explained that Wyloo was first identified in 2023 through regional reconnaissance work that revealed a significant sediment-hosted antimony anomaly. Follow-up sampling and soil geochemistry have since outlined a compelling vein array, with recent results returning encouraging grades and expanding the anomaly to both the northeast and southwest.

“We found a really interesting vein array with some pretty high-grade results,” De Luca said, noting that ongoing work continues to build confidence in the scale and potential of the system.
Looking ahead, Novo plans to commence drilling at Wyloo in early April 2026, marking a major step in advancing the project. Additional exploration campaigns are scheduled later in the year at the company’s Bella Bella and Onslow projects, further reinforcing its active exploration agenda.

Spreadborough emphasized Novo’s culture and commitment to discovery, highlighting the company’s hands-on approach to exploration. “We’ve got a great team that don’t like spending time in the office,” he said. “They want to be out there on the ground, testing ideas and seeing great results.”

Jensen explained to Proactive that ReElement’s strategy is centered on building strong partnerships with African stakeholders to advance minerals processing capabilities on the continent. 

This approach is designed to support industrialization and economic development in Africa while also securing reliable and transparent critical mineral supply chains that are essential for American industry and allied nations.

He emphasized that ReElement is focused on developing collaborative solutions that address supply chain vulnerabilities, particularly for rare earth elements and other strategic minerals that underpin advanced manufacturing, clean energy technologies, and national security applications in the United States and partner countries.

The Investing in African Mining Indaba conference is widely regarded as a premier global forum for mining professionals, investors, and industry leaders seeking to unlock Africa’s vast mineral potential. The annual event serves as a key platform for policy discussion, investment engagement, and strategic collaboration, helping shape the future direction of mining and resource development across the African continent.

      <title>London BTC Company chair discusses gold hedge strategy to counter Bitcoin volatility</title>
      <description><![CDATA[London BTC Company Ltd (LSE:BTC, OTCQB:VINZF) chairman David Lenigas talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's innovative strategy to hedge its Bitcoin mining operations by acquiring gold and silver assets. He explained that while Bitcoin companies typically don’t invest in gold, London BTC is taking a different route, using its debt-free balance sheet to build a diversified treasury.

“We’ve got 1,100 bitcoin miners churning away in North America,” Lenigas said, “and we think that gold, and silver to that extent… is a good sort of hedge that we can create.”

The conversation explored the company’s acquisition of the Chance Gold Mine in Western Australia, a low-cost asset being used to test this hedging model. Lenigas emphasised the potential of underexplored gold assets and hinted at promising opportunities in the United States.

On the Nasdaq front, Lenigas reaffirmed ambitions to list, but stated the goal is to avoid entering an overcrowded market. Instead, London BTC aims to be unique in combining Bitcoin mining with gold and silver assets.

Looking ahead, the company plans to expand its fleet to 1,500 miners and maintain a disciplined approach with no leverage or debt exposure—key for surviving volatility in the crypto space.

      <title>Record Resources repositions as international Oil &amp; Gas explorer focused on Gabon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Record Resources President and COO Alain Mizelle joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s strategic transition into international oil and gas exploration and its growing focus on Gabon as a cornerstone jurisdiction for future growth.

Mizelle explained that Record Resources is an established company that originally began as an oil and gas issuer in Alberta before evolving into the mining and mineral exploration sector, with projects spanning lithium and gold assets in Ontario. He said the company is now realigning its long-term strategy to return to its roots and emerge as a fully fledged international oil and gas exploration and production company.

Central to this shift is Gabon, which Mizelle described as one of the most stable and attractive oil and gas jurisdictions in West Africa. He highlighted the country’s long history of hydrocarbon production, a stable fiscal framework, and a supportive political environment. Gabon also benefits from an established industry presence, with major international operators such as Total and Perenco, alongside a number of experienced mid-sized producers, actively operating in the country.
A major focus of the discussion was the Ngulu Block, which Record Resources signed into in September 2025 in partnership with Reconnaissance Energy Africa (ReconAfrica). Mizelle noted that the block covers more than 1,200 square kilometres and is located in the heart of Gabon’s most prospective oil-producing region. He described the asset as highly strategic, stating that the Ngulu Block represents the “epicenter” of current and future exploration opportunities in the country.

Mizelle also outlined the significance of the historical Loba Discovery, which was drilled in 1976 and intersected more than 140 metres of oil pay but was never fully developed due to technological limitations at the time. With modern drilling and evaluation techniques now available, Record Resources and ReconAfrica see a compelling opportunity to appraise the discovery and potentially fast-track development should commercial viability be confirmed.

Looking ahead, Mizelle said the company’s 2026 work program will be focused on reprocessing existing 3D seismic data, detailed reinterpretation, and resource evaluation across the Ngulu Block. He noted that resource estimates are expected later in the year and emphasized the strong support the company is receiving from the Gabonese government, which he described as highly receptive to new oil and gas investment and exploration activity.

      <title>HIVE Digital reports January Bitcoin output with 290% YoY hashrate growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hive Digital Technologies Chief Financial Officer Darcy Daubaras joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company’s Bitcoin production results for January 2026, highlighting exceptional year-over-year growth in hashrate, strong fleet efficiency, and reliable performance across its global network of Tier-1 and Tier-3 data centers.

Daubaras told Proactive that HIVE’s high uptime, operational resilience, and production consistency—particularly at its Paraguay operations—enabled the company to produce a total of 297 Bitcoin during January. This represents a 191% increase compared to the same period last year, with average daily production of approximately 9.6 Bitcoin per day.

During the month, HIVE’s hashrate averaged 22.2 exahash per second (EH/s) and peaked at 23.7 EH/s, marking a 290% year-over-year increase. The company attributed this performance to ongoing infrastructure investments, disciplined fleet upgrades, and its geographically diversified operating model, which helps mitigate operational risks and maintain consistent output.

HIVE also announced the addition of 2,667 new Bitmain S21 XP ASIC miners. These air-cooled units have been received in Paraguay and are currently being installed at the Yguazú facility, where they are replacing older legacy Buzzminer ASICs. The deployment is expected to further enhance operating efficiency and overall performance.

Once fully installed, the new miners are projected to increase HIVE’s installed global hashrate to approximately 25.5 EH/s, while improving the company’s global average fleet efficiency to about 17 joules per terahash (J/TH). Holmes noted that these upgrades position HIVE to continue delivering competitive production results while maintaining its focus on efficient, scalable, and sustainable digital asset infrastructure.

      <title>AEW UK REIT&apos;s Laura Elkin on portfolio performance, yield and growth outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[AEW UK REIT plc (LSE:AEWU) portfolio manager Laura Elkin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about portfolio performance, dividend stability and the company’s investment strategy in a challenging UK property market.

Elkin touched on the company’s latest quarterly performance, including a 2% NAV total return and the payment of the 41st consecutive dividend at 2p per share per quarter. Elkin attributed this consistency to a long-standing investment strategy that the company has followed for more than a decade, focusing on disciplined stock selection and active asset management.

She described AEW UK REIT as a sector-agnostic value investor, allowing the company to seek opportunities across the full commercial property universe. This diversified and countercyclical approach has helped deliver income growth over the past three years, despite subdued conditions across parts of the property market. Elkin explained that the company places significant emphasis on defensive acquisition pricing to protect value and support long-term returns.

The discussion also covered valuation movements during the quarter, with Elkin noting that a profitable asset sale more than offset valuation softness. She highlighted retail warehousing and industrial assets as areas where rental growth remains achievable, pointing to the company’s 37% weighting to industrials as a key source of future income growth. As Elkin stated, “asset management is a key driver” of both valuation uplift and income progression.

Elkin also addressed income sustainability, explaining that the REIT’s selective acquisition process and unique dividend policy have contributed to what she described as “the most stable dividend across the UK diversified REITs.” Looking ahead, she outlined ambitions to grow the company, improve liquidity and maintain strong shareholder returns.

      <itunes:summary>AEW UK REIT plc (LSE:AEWU) portfolio manager Laura Elkin talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about portfolio performance, dividend stability and the company’s investment strategy in a challenging UK property market.

Elkin touched on the company’s latest quarterly performance, including a 2% NAV total return and the payment of the 41st consecutive dividend at 2p per share per quarter. Elkin attributed this consistency to a long-standing investment strategy that the company has followed for more than a decade, focusing on disciplined stock selection and active asset management.

She described AEW UK REIT as a sector-agnostic value investor, allowing the company to seek opportunities across the full commercial property universe. This diversified and countercyclical approach has helped deliver income growth over the past three years, despite subdued conditions across parts of the property market. Elkin explained that the company places significant emphasis on defensive acquisition pricing to protect value and support long-term returns.

The discussion also covered valuation movements during the quarter, with Elkin noting that a profitable asset sale more than offset valuation softness. She highlighted retail warehousing and industrial assets as areas where rental growth remains achievable, pointing to the company’s 37% weighting to industrials as a key source of future income growth. As Elkin stated, “asset management is a key driver” of both valuation uplift and income progression.

Elkin also addressed income sustainability, explaining that the REIT’s selective acquisition process and unique dividend policy have contributed to what she described as “the most stable dividend across the UK diversified REITs.” Looking ahead, she outlined ambitions to grow the company, improve liquidity and maintain strong shareholder returns.

      <title>M2i Global advances critical minerals strategy with first Titanium and Gallium shipments</title>
      <description><![CDATA[M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a key milestone in the company’s critical minerals strategy, as Titanium X has initiated its first shipment of titanium ore from Western Australia to the United States under the parties’ collaboration agreement. The inaugural shipment consists of titanium ore samples sourced from both mineral sands and hard rock deposits and represents the first step in advancing downstream evaluation and processing pathways.

Rosende told Proactive that the titanium material will be distributed to selected academic institutions and a U.S. defense industrial base company, where it will be analyzed to determine the most appropriate refining processes required to produce end products tailored to specific industrial and defense applications. Titanium is officially classified as a critical mineral by the U.S. Geological Survey and other international authorities, recognized as essential for national security, advanced manufacturing, aerospace, defense systems, and green energy technologies. 

While titanium is relatively abundant globally, Rosende noted that the processing of high-grade titanium metal remains exposed to supply chain vulnerabilities due to concentration in a small number of countries, including China and Russia.

This initial titanium shipment highlights M2i Global’s longer-term strategy to establish reliable, transparent, and allied-source supply chains for critical minerals. By pairing physical access to raw materials from trusted international partners such as Titanium X with its digital traceability and logistics infrastructure, M2i aims to build a differentiated supply chain platform that supports domestic manufacturing, aligns with evolving U.S. federal policy initiatives, and strengthens long-term supply security as global demand accelerates.

In addition to the titanium shipment, M2i Global also announced that Nimy Resources has initiated its first shipment of high-grade gallium from Western Australia to the United States. Similar to the titanium program, the gallium ore will be provided to selected academic institutions and a defense industrial base company for detailed analysis to determine optimal refining pathways for downstream applications.
Nimy and M2i are collaborating on the development and supply of gallium from the Mons Project in Western Australia, which hosts a near-term JORC-compliant gallium resource alongside other strategically important critical minerals, including rare earth elements. Together, these initial shipments mark tangible progress in M2i Global’s efforts to build an allied, secure, and technology-enabled supply chain for critical minerals essential to U.S. industry and national security.

      <title>Aftermath Silver appoints Danny Keating as COO to advance Berenguela project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the appointment of Danny Keating as Chief Operating Officer, a move that significantly strengthens the company’s operational and technical leadership as the Berenguela project enters a critical phase of evaluation and de-risking. Keating is a seasoned mining engineer with more than 30 years of experience spanning mine development, mineral processing, and large-scale project execution across multiple jurisdictions.

Rushton told Proactive that Keating brings a rare combination of operational, technical, and financial expertise to Aftermath Silver. His previous senior executive roles include serving as Chief Executive Officer of TSX Venture Exchange–listed Giyani Metals, an advanced manganese battery metals company, as well as leadership positions with Alufer Mining, Dynamic Mining, and ASX-listed Lindian Resources. Earlier in his career, Keating worked with global mining majors Anglo American and Gold Fields, before transitioning into investment banking and corporate finance roles with Collins Stewart and ABN AMRO.

As Chief Operating Officer, Keating will oversee Aftermath Silver’s planned engineering and technical studies, guiding the company through the next stage of project advancement. His appointment comes at a pivotal time, as recent infill drilling and an updated mineral resource estimate have provided a strong technical foundation to advance engineering studies and further exploration.

The company is now preparing to test eastern exploration targets and follow up on recently reported high-grade silver-copper-manganese intercepts, including an interval of 156 metres from surface grading 290 grams per tonne silver, 1.12% copper, and 7.3% manganese. Management believes this work program marks the beginning of a transformational phase for Berenguela, positioning the project for continued technical de-risking and value creation as Aftermath Silver moves toward its next development

      <title>Fineqia International&apos;s Matteo Greco on January&apos;s trends in crypto ETPs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ) senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about current conditions in the crypto market and how exchange-traded products (ETPs) are behaving during a period of price volatility.

Greco provided a broad crypto market overview, noting that prices have been trending downward in the short term while demand for crypto ETPs has remained relatively stable. Greco explained that this resilience is largely due to the longer-term investment horizon typically adopted by ETP investors compared with participants in native crypto markets, where assets can be traded instantaneously.

Greco highlighted that Bitcoin ETPs continue to dominate the space, accounting for roughly 80% of total crypto ETP assets under management, even as Ethereum ETPs experienced stronger inflows during early 2025. He stressed that this does not indicate a shift away from Bitcoin, but rather reflects how capital flows have evolved following the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in 2024. As Greco stated, “Bitcoin’s role is definitely predominant and demand is strong.”

The interview also explored whether ETP activity could be masking broader market sentiment. Greco dismissed this idea, pointing out that recent price declines clearly reflect market conditions, while ETPs represent only a small fraction of the overall crypto market capitalisation. He added that ETPs offer more stability because investments are typically made with a longer time-frame perspective.

Looking ahead, Greco said the crypto ETP market remains in its early stages. While pure spot products may be reaching saturation, he expects continued innovation through yield-generating, staking, DeFi and tokenisation-based products.

      <title>Kalayi drilling delivers strong tin results for Rome Resources</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about encouraging high-grade tin results from ongoing drilling at the company’s Kalayi prospect and what investors should expect next as work progresses across the wider project area.

Barrett explained that recent deeper drill holes at Kalayi have continued to return strong grades, with indications that grades are improving with depth, in line with the company’s expectations and structural model. He noted that several metres of drilling had shown grades averaging around 8%, which he described as “very good” and comparable to those seen at Alphamin's Mpama mine. According to Barrett, this reinforces confidence that Kalayi sits on the same geological trend and exhibits similar characteristics.

Discussing the next steps, Barrett said Rome Resources is currently drilling additional deeper holes at Kalayi and is also considering a vertical hole to test the system further at depth. 

Once drilling at Kalayi is completed, the company plans to move rigs to Mont Agoma. Barrett outlined that upcoming work there will focus on extending the known tin system deeper while also testing potential copper mineralisation to the north. He said recent full-element assay work has helped simplify the geological model and provided clearer guidance on where the mineralisation is sitting.

Looking ahead, Barrett highlighted that investors should watch for regular drill results as multiple holes are currently underway, with updates expected on a frequent basis if progress continues as planned.

      <itunes:summary>Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about encouraging high-grade tin results from ongoing drilling at the company’s Kalayi prospect and what investors should expect next as work progresses across the wider project area.

Barrett explained that recent deeper drill holes at Kalayi have continued to return strong grades, with indications that grades are improving with depth, in line with the company’s expectations and structural model. He noted that several metres of drilling had shown grades averaging around 8%, which he described as “very good” and comparable to those seen at Alphamin&apos;s Mpama mine. According to Barrett, this reinforces confidence that Kalayi sits on the same geological trend and exhibits similar characteristics.

Discussing the next steps, Barrett said Rome Resources is currently drilling additional deeper holes at Kalayi and is also considering a vertical hole to test the system further at depth.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai expands Krafty Lab with global in-person delivery, lands tier-1 bank client</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major expansion of the Company’s Krafty Lab platform, marked by the launch of international in-person delivery and the signing of a Tier-1 enterprise starter agreement with a multinational universal bank and financial services company,  BNP Paribas. The company says this agreement validates growing enterprise demand for centralized, scalable employee engagement solutions capable of supporting global, distributed workforces.

Gappelberg explained that the initial pilot program includes three in-person enterprise events delivered across three different countries, with a broader global rollout planned for the third quarter of 2026. This phased deployment positions Krafty Lab for potential expansion into multi-region, long-term enterprise contracts as global organizations increasingly seek unified engagement partners that can operate seamlessly across borders.

The milestone establishes Krafty Lab as a globally scalable enterprise engagement platform, purpose-built to support multinational corporations through a centralized, turnkey operating model. With international in-person execution now live, Krafty Lab enables companies to deliver consistent, high-quality employee experiences across multiple countries through a single vendor, standardized processes, and unified reporting and operational oversight.

Gappelberg noted that a recent anchor deployment in São Paulo, Brazil demonstrated the platform’s ability to execute enterprise-grade experiences internationally while maintaining quality control, compliance, and performance visibility. Krafty Lab’s offerings are designed to support a wide range of corporate use cases, including employee engagement initiatives, leadership offsites, sales kickoffs, onboarding programs, and global team activations for hybrid and fully distributed teams.

The platform will be offered across four pricing tiers, beginning at approximately $25,000 for starter companies and scaling to $250,000 and above for large enterprise clients. As international delivery expands, Nextech3D.ai believes Krafty Lab is well positioned to capture increased enterprise spend by providing a scalable, asset-light solution for global engagement programs that demand consistency, reliability, and measurable outcomes.

      <title>The FUTR Corporation CEO talks strategic growth &amp; Q1 milestones</title>
      <description><![CDATA[The FUTR Corporation (TSX-V:FTRC, OTCQB:FTRCF) CEO Alex McDougall talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s AI-powered platform and how its proprietary agent technology helps consumers take control of their finances and personal data. McDougall highlighted three key differentiators of FUTR Agents: the ability to act on a user's behalf, a dedicated and secure AI architecture, and the unique feature of rewarding users for their data input.

“Your data is incredibly valuable. Now we're helping you to realize that,” McDougall said, underscoring FUTR’s mission to empower users through data ownership and monetization.

He also detailed how the platform supports payment optimization for large financial commitments like car loans and mortgages, potentially saving users substantial amounts in interest. FUTR Agents can also help users build credit by reporting rental payments to bureaus like Equifax.

McDougall discussed FUTR’s recent strategic shift from a build phase to an execution-focused approach, signalling new partnerships and platform enhancements. He mentioned upcoming milestones in Q1 and Q2, including brand partnerships in insurance, mortgage tools powered by direct wholesale rates, and an expanded auto financing footprint via a deal with Tax Max.

He emphasized a focus on transitioning from service-based to brand and lead generation revenue models.

      <title>Nextech3D.AI CEO on Krafty Lab expansion with F-35 flight simulation experiences</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.AI (CSE:NTAR, OTCQX:NEXCF, FRA:1SS) CEO Evan Gappelberg talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest expansion of its Krafty Lab platform, highlighting a major upgrade in enterprise engagement through the addition of F-35 flight simulation experiences.

The platform, which unifies registration, interactive floor plans, engagement tools and analytics into a single AI-powered operating system, is designed to help enterprises plan, manage and monetize large-scale events. Gappelberg emphasized the value of this integration, referencing a recent example with BNP Paribas in Brazil, saying the company is "coordinating that across regions and venues."

A key highlight of the conversation was the introduction of premium F-35 flight simulations, described not merely as entertainment, but as "executive level team building." According to Gappelberg, the F-35 experience stands out due to its unique fusion of real-time data and decision-making, making it ideal for simulating high-stakes leadership and accountability.

"This partnership moves Krafty into the top tier of experiential engagement," he explained, noting that these high-end offerings position the company for significantly larger enterprise deals and long-term client relationships. He added, "Ultimately, it makes us that one-stop shop where if you're an event organizer, you're going to come to us because we have it all."

Looking ahead, Gappelberg outlined ambitions to further broaden the platform's capabilities by adding corporate gifting and offsite leadership experiences—targeting markets worth billions and tapping into the same buyer base Nextech3D.ai already serves.

      <title>Tertiary Minerals MD on highest grade yet at Mushima North; eyes exploration target</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Shares in Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF, FRA:TMU) managing director Richard Belcher talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest exploration results from the company’s Mushima North project in Zambia. The update includes Tertiary’s highest-grade silver-copper intersection to date, a key milestone for the company.

Belcher explained that although the Phase 3 drilling program was cut short by early seasonal rains, the results are significant. “These holes have been released today, or the assays were released, really support the direction this project’s going in,” he said, pointing to both the confirmed near-surface mineralisation and new evidence of depth extension to 103 metres.

Target A1 now shows a surface footprint of 450m by 400m, with Belcher noting the mineralisation begins just a few metres below the soil layer. The depth extension opens the door to assessing underlying sulfide potential – an exciting development comparable to other projects in Zambia.

With drilling on pause, Tertiary has fast-tracked the development of an exploration target. Belcher said, “We’re really trying a fast track now towards a mineral resource,” using these new results to inform 3D modelling of grade and tonnage potential. Drilling is set to resume in the dry season, with updated plans reflecting this new data.

Beyond Mushima North, Tertiary is progressing with other joint ventures in Zambia, with updates anticipated as field activities begin.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain Technologies updates investors following positive Nashville Bitcoin conference</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s participation in the recent Nashville Energy & Mining Summit (NEMS26) at Bitcoin Park in Nashville, a key networking hub for the Bitcoin community. Gardin described the conference as “extremely intensive” and valuable for meeting key industry players, including three ASIC manufacturers with whom the company has signed NDAs.

He explained that Quantum Blockchain is progressing well in its relationships with these partners, particularly around its development of Method C, a neural network-based solution requiring ASIC-specific training. “The training is very ASICs oriented, specific ASICs oriented; and that's not something you do overnight,” Gardin noted.

A major development for the industry, Gardin said, is the emergence of an open-source stack, including hashing board designs, control board software, and even mining pools. This marks a significant departure from the market dominance of Chinese manufacturers, who have historically restricted access to both ASIC specs and software. 

“This is for us, really a game changer,” Gardin said, pointing to the availability of chips and the open ecosystem as an opportunity for broader industry participation.

He also clarified confusion around QBT’s access to source code, explaining that access is being granted incrementally in alignment with the company's agreed path with its partners.

      <title>Virtuix integrates AI Gaussian Splatting into Virtual Walk for immersive defense training</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Virtuix CEO Jan Goetgeluk joined Steve Darling from Proactive to highlight the company’s integration of AI-driven Gaussian splatting technology into its Virtual Terrain Walk (VTW) system, significantly enhancing its training and simulation capabilities for defense and security applications. Gaussian splatting is an advanced 3D reconstruction technique that rapidly converts real-world environments captured with 360-degree cameras into highly detailed, photorealistic, and fully navigable virtual worlds.

Goetgeluk explained that VTW is a multi-user immersive training platform purpose-built for simulations where realism, spatial awareness, and physical movement are critical to operational readiness. By combining Gaussian splatting with Virtuix’s omni-directional treadmill technology, VTW enables soldiers to physically walk, run, turn, and crouch in 360 degrees within geo-specific virtual environments. This allows military personnel to “walk the battlefield before they fight on it,” improving mission planning, rehearsal, and situational awareness in complex combat scenarios.

The system supports collaborative training across more than 12 stations, either co-located or distributed across different geographic locations, enabling multi-user mission planning and leader rehearsals. Trainers can dynamically modify environmental conditions, introduce adversary forces, and adjust scenario variables in real time to simulate realistic and evolving battlefield conditions.

Virtuix also noted early adoption of its technology within defense organizations. Omni One test units have already been purchased by Yokota Air Force Base, the U.S. Air Force Academy, and the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, underscoring growing institutional interest in immersive, physically active virtual training solutions.

Beyond defense applications, Virtuix sees significant commercial opportunities for its VTW and Gaussian splatting capabilities across industrial and safety training, real estate visualization, and law enforcement. The company believes these markets can benefit from the same high-fidelity, location-based simulation and physically immersive experiences that are redefining how defense organizations prepare personnel for real-world operations.

Ellam explained that this approach allows the company to steadily increase its Bitcoin holdings, even during periods of price volatility, without relying on external capital markets.

The AQSE-quoted firm bought 1.065 Bitcoin for £64,000, using surplus operational cashflow generated during January from Spencer Riley, which delivered January revenues of £253,424 and generated incremental cashflow for the group. 

“Our business model is largely uncorrelated to the Bitcoin market,” Ellam said, adding that revenue is generated by placing senior-level talent in industries like AI and logistics. This uncorrelated cash flow allows the company to acquire Bitcoin consistently, regardless of market cycles.

He also discussed how Connecting Excellence structures its hiring and compensation strategy to limit upfront costs by offering performance-based share options tied to revenue growth and Bitcoin per share metrics.

Ellam reaffirmed his confidence in Bitcoin as a long-term store of value, stating, “I have absolute conviction that Bitcoin will always be worth more in the future than it has been worth in the past.”

      <title>EMV Capital CEO on £100m+ AUM and Venture Building returns</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s investment strategy, portfolio performance and how EMV Capital continues to build value despite challenging global market conditions.

Iliev explained that EMV Capital has maintained assets under management above £100 million in 2025, at a time when many venture funds have seen declines. He said this resilience reflects the strength of the company’s portfolio, which is focused on deep tech, life sciences, data and AI, all underpinned by strong fundamentals. According to Iliev, the integration of Martlet Capital is now fully complete, enabling greater diversification and allowing capital to flow across EIS investments, syndicates and the Cambridge innovation cluster.

A key focus of the discussion was EMV Capital’s venture building model, which has turned £900,000 into more than £10 million over three years. Iliev said the company looks beyond hype cycles to identify businesses with proven technology and product-market fit that require restructuring or strategic support to unlock growth. As he put it, “It’s a very common sense, very kind of bread and butter sort of approach to business, which looks at strong focus on cash, strong focus on IP and strong focus on key value inflexion points.”

Iliev also outlined how EMV Capital assesses investment opportunities across sectors such as digital health, satellite communications, sustainability and antibiotic resistance, consistently prioritising intellectual property strength, market size and visibility on upcoming value milestones. He added that EMV Capital uses its balance sheet sparingly, aiming to unlock third-party co-investment while remaining capital efficient.

Looking ahead, Iliev highlighted multiple potential catalysts over the next 12–18 months, particularly from venture building activities and new opportunities emerging from Cambridge, supported by a strengthened leadership team.

      <title>EnWave signs commercial REV™ license with Bowen Gumlu growers in Australia</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EnWave Corporation CEO Brent Charleton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has signed a royalty-bearing commercial license agreement with the Bowen Gumlu Growers Association (BGGA), a leading fruit and vegetable industry body representing horticultural growers, producers, and associated agribusinesses in North Queensland, Australia. The Bowen–Gumlu region is Queensland’s largest producer of winter vegetable crops, generating approximately AUD $650 million in annual farm gate production and playing a critical role in Australia’s fresh produce supply chain. Key commodities produced in the region include tomatoes, capsicum, mangoes, cucurbits, beans, and corn.

Charleton explained that BGGA plans to leverage EnWave’s proprietary Radiant Energy Vacuum (REV™) dehydration technology to develop and manufacture commercially attractive tropical fruit snacks and value-added food ingredients. REV™ technology enables faster, gentler dehydration compared to conventional drying methods, helping preserve flavor, color, and nutritional content—features that are particularly well suited to high-quality tropical fruits and vegetables.

As part of the agreement, BGGA has acquired a 10-kilowatt REV™ machine from EnWave’s Australian third-party equipment reseller, Scitek. The system will be used to support commercial product development and early-stage manufacturing of REV™-dried products, allowing BGGA and its members to evaluate market opportunities and refine product offerings aimed at both domestic and export markets.

Given the scale and diversity of BGGA’s membership, as well as the significant volumes of produce grown annually in the Bowen–Gumlu region, EnWave sees strong potential for additional REV™ equipment sales as BGGA advances its commercialization strategy. Charleton noted that this agreement not only validates the applicability of REV™ technology within Australia’s horticultural sector, but also positions EnWave to expand its footprint in one of the country’s most important fresh produce regions through future equipment deployments and ongoing royalty revenue.

      <title>Bond outlook 2026: PT Asset Management on barbell strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[PT Asset Management CEO Sean Dranfield talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the firm's fixed income positioning heading into 2026, highlighting how shifting yield curve dynamics could favour its barbell strategy.

Reflecting on 2025, Dranfield acknowledged that sectors like corporate and agency mortgage-backed securities outperformed due to spread tightening and curve steepening — areas to which PT Asset had minimal exposure. Despite that, he said, “We're actually, quite excited about the go-forward returns on a relative basis this year because the barbell should actually work even better now.”

Dranfield explained the firm’s core approach combines offensive and defensive allocations. Offensively, PT Asset prefers the 15 to 20-year part of both the Treasury and municipal bond curves, where there is a steeper slope and more yield curve roll, boosting return potential. Taxable municipal bonds and the 20-year Treasury are current favourites, with tax-exempt munis recently being added.

On the defensive side, PT Asset favours structured credit at the short end of the curve, particularly investment-grade, where wider spreads offer 5–6% total returns regardless of rate movements.
Dranfield also underlined PT Asset’s long-term framework, built around three-year return “shapes” that help guide expectations across varying rate environments.

Dranfield also underlined PT Asset’s long-term framework, built around three-year return “shapes” that help guide expectations across varying rate environments.

      <title>Rome Resources CEO says tin and copper tests show strong viability of Bisie North</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR, FRA:33R) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the encouraging metallurgical results from its Bisie North project in the Democratic Republic of Congo, particularly at the Kalayi and Mont Agoma targets.

Barrett explained that initial test work has delivered high tin gravity recovery and copper flotation results, with recoveries reaching 80% for copper and very low waste levels. These results suggest the potential for a straightforward and cost-effective processing route.

“These initial results have shown, unsurprisingly actually, that the cassiterite responds very well to gravity separation,” said Barrett. “We get high grades, very, very low waste, and so it makes for a relatively simple and therefore low-cost process.”

Barrett noted that copper recovery is an “incremental addition to the economics” of the project, especially as copper must be removed to access the tin. He added that while copper production may not shift timelines, it could influence the processing flow sheet and equipment selection.

Looking ahead, Barrett said drilling is underway at Kalayi, with plans to move to Mont Agoma in February. Rome Resources expects to release drilling updates before the upcoming Indaba conference and aims to incorporate results into an updated resource estimate by May.

      <title>Titanium breakthrough: Empire Metals&apos; Pitfield plan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Empire Metals Ltd (AIM:EEE, OTCQX:EPMLF) managing director Shaun Bunn talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about recent advancements at the company’s Pitfield titanium project in Western Australia.

Bunn shared that Pitfield is one of the largest titanium projects globally, located near Perth. He highlighted significant progress made in test work, with improved grades, better recoveries, and the development of a simplified flow sheet – a rarity in the titanium sector. “The real takeaway here is the fact that we've been able to come up with a relatively straightforward, quite simple flow sheet,” Bunn stated.

He also explained that whole-of-ore flotation has enabled up to 80% rejection of unwanted material, which has major implications for reducing acid consumption and improving efficiency. Looking ahead, Bunn said that piloting will begin by the end of Q1 2026, moving from scoping to more detailed studies.

The company expects to produce titanium pigment and various titanium products, which will support their marketing strategy and customer engagement. Additionally, drilling is set to resume shortly to build out the resource base and offer mining plan flexibility.

Bunn believes Pitfield is well-positioned to become a critical supplier of high-grade titanium feedstock, particularly amid geopolitical pressures on titanium supply chains.

      <title>Active Energy scales fast with UAE JV partnership</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Active Energy Group PLC (AIM:AEG, OTCQB:ATGVF) CEO Paul Elliott talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recently signed joint venture, which serves as the foundation for its ambitious 100MW plan in the UAE. 

Elliott explained that the agreement accelerates execution and scales the business more rapidly by partnering with experienced operators rather than building internal capacity.

"This relationship is the foundation of what makes this growth achievable. We're no longer trying to build everything internally," Elliott said, outlining how the company is leveraging its partners’ infrastructure, operational readiness, and market access.

He emphasised that Active Energy is keeping strategic control with a 60% stake, while minimising costs and maintaining a capital-light structure. This enables growth without burdening the balance sheet or expanding headcount unnecessarily.

Elliott also highlighted the strategic roles of its partners: Segments Cloud Hash brings infrastructure optimisation expertise, while LC Group offers international sales reach, which would have taken years to build organically.

The CEO pointed out the cost advantage of operating in the UAE, calling ultra-low-cost energy a “very major” structural benefit. He added that this positioning not only enhances competitiveness globally but also opens the door to regional expansion. Earlier this month, the company took a first formal step into Saudi Arabia after being granted an Entrepreneur Licence by the Kingdom’s Ministry of Investment

      <title>Bit Digital CEO talks Bitcoin mining to Ethereum and AI Infrastructure</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bit Digital CEO Sam Tabar joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss his annual letter to shareholders, outlining a significant strategic shift that repositions the company away from bitcoin mining and toward Ethereum-based infrastructure and artificial intelligence compute assets as the core pillars of its business.

Tabar described 2025 as a pivotal transition year in which Bit Digital evolved into what it now calls a “strategic asset company.” Under this model, the company is focused on deploying, owning, and operating infrastructure assets rather than passively holding digital assets. As part of this transformation, Bit Digital exited bitcoin mining operations and consolidated its digital asset exposure around Ethereum, while simultaneously expanding its presence in AI infrastructure through its ownership stake in WhiteFiber.

In the shareholder letter, Tabar explained that bitcoin mining had become a less efficient use of capital compared with opportunities that offer recurring yield and greater operational leverage. The decision to exit mining reflects a broader move toward more flexible and durable infrastructure investments, while maintaining the company’s long-term conviction in digital assets as a foundational technology.

Ethereum has emerged as Bit Digital’s primary economic infrastructure exposure. The company reported holding more than 150,000 ETH as of the third quarter, with the majority of those holdings staked to generate protocol-native rewards. This approach allows Bit Digital to earn yield while maintaining liquidity and adhering to institutional-grade custody and risk management standards.

Alongside its Ethereum strategy, Bit Digital emphasized its commitment to artificial intelligence infrastructure through WhiteFiber, which the company views as a long-term strategic asset. Tabar pointed to structural constraints in power availability, data center capacity, and construction timelines as key factors supporting sustained demand for AI compute, positioning WhiteFiber to benefit from long-duration growth trends.

To support its strategic transformation, Bit Digital completed an unsecured convertible note offering, which Tabar described as an innovative financing structure within the digital asset sector. The transaction allowed the company to raise capital at a premium to underlying asset value while preserving balance sheet flexibility and avoiding near-term dilution.

Looking ahead to 2026, Tabar said Bit Digital is moving from transformation to execution, with a focus on strengthening its ability to self-fund growth through durable cash flow generation while maintaining financial flexibility. While current returns remain linked to broader market performance in Ethereum and WhiteFiber, the company plans to pursue differentiated value creation through disciplined operational execution and strategic capital allocation.

This approach allows Bit Digital to earn yield while maintaining liquidity and adhering to institutional-grade custody and risk management standards.

Alongside its Ethereum strategy, Bit Digital emphasized its commitment to artificial intelligence infrastructure through WhiteFiber, which the company views as a long-term strategic asset. Tabar pointed to structural constraints in power availability, data center capacity, and construction timelines as key factors supporting sustained demand for AI compute, positioning WhiteFiber to benefit from long-duration growth trends.

To support its strategic transformation, Bit Digital completed an unsecured convertible note offering, which Tabar described as an innovative financing structure within the digital asset sector. The transaction allowed the company to raise capital at a premium to underlying asset value while preserving balance sheet flexibility and avoiding near-term dilution.

Looking ahead to 2026, Tabar said Bit Digital is moving from transformation to execution, with a focus on strengthening its ability to self-fund growth through durable cash flow generation while maintaining financial flexibility. While current returns remain linked to broader market performance in Ethereum and WhiteFiber, the company plans to pursue differentiated value creation through disciplined operational execution and strategic capital allocation.

      <title>Cloudastructure delivers record 2025 with 270% revenue growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cloudastructure CEO James McCormick joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss what he described as a transformative year for the company in 2025, highlighted by a 270% increase in revenue and more than 300% year-over-year growth in the fourth quarter. The performance marked the strongest financial quarter in Cloudastructure’s history and underscored accelerating demand for its AI-powered security solutions.

Cloudastructure, an artificial intelligence–driven video surveillance company, differentiates itself through a unique human-in-the-loop operating model. The platform processes more than 9 million video clips each day, using AI to identify potential security threats in real time. When a risk is detected, the incident is escalated to a remote monitoring center, where trained human operators verify the alert and, when appropriate, issue live voice warnings designed to deter criminal activity before it escalates.

McCormick emphasized the effectiveness of this approach, noting that the company has achieved a proven 98% success rate in stopping crimes or other incidents before they occur. This combination of automation and human judgment allows Cloudastructure to reduce false alarms while delivering highly proactive and reliable security outcomes for its customers.

During 2025, Cloudastructure also expanded its capabilities through strategic partnerships that enable drone deployment via mobile security trailers. This enhancement adds another layer of proactive monitoring, allowing clients to extend surveillance coverage rapidly and flexibly in high-risk or temporary locations.

The company’s customer base now includes six of the top ten property management firms in the United States, providing access to an estimated 10,000 properties for potential future expansion. This strong foothold in the property management sector positions Cloudastructure to continue scaling efficiently as adoption grows.

Looking ahead to 2026, McCormick said the company plans to expand into additional verticals, including transportation, logistics, and construction sites. These sectors are experiencing increasing concerns around cargo theft, materials loss, and site security, creating new growth opportunities for Cloudastructure’s AI-enabled, proactive surveillance platform.

      <title>EMV Capital-backed Vortex Biotech targets clinical rollout with new Manchester facility</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Vortex Biotech managing director Paul Reeves talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s expansion into Manchester and the opening of its new advanced laboratory.

Reeves described Vortex, an EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC, FRA:NTK1) porfolio company, as a precision oncology company enabling access to intact circulating tumour cells (CTCs) for clinicians, researchers and pharmaceutical companies. He said the Manchester site will significantly enhance the company’s capabilities, particularly in clinical validation and commercial rollout.

Reeves highlighted three main advantages of the new facility: increased capacity, proximity to research partners and hospitals, and access to a vibrant innovation ecosystem. He said, “We’re surrounded by the partners that we need in terms of universities, hospitals... and researchers that we want to tap into.”

Discussing market timing, Reeves pointed to growing momentum in liquid biopsy technology. He explained how Vortex’s CTC platform complements the more established ctDNA approach, combining for deeper insight into cancer diagnosis, treatment resistance and patient monitoring.

The company’s roadmap includes multicenter validation studies across major cancer types and the launch of clinical trial services. Reeves noted that supplying high-purity CTCs will be a “key revenue-generating channel for Vortex” and that biomarker assay development is underway to support early detection and therapy selection.

Vortex is building towards a broader commercial rollout in the UK and Europe, starting with research and clinical trial markets, then moving into regulated diagnostics.

      <title>Bradda Head eyes lithium hub in deal with Rio Tinto&apos;s Kennecott</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bradda Head Lithium Ltd (AIM:BHL, OTC:BHLIF, TSX-V:BHLI, FRA:8CD1) executive chairman Ian Stalker talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's strategic partnership with Rio Tinto’s Kennecott division and what it means for the Whistlejacket lithium project in Arizona.

Stalker explained that Bradda Head is earning up to 60% ownership in the Whistlejacket project, with Rio Tinto maintaining an interest and offering support. He emphasised the significance of having a major like Rio Tinto involved, noting that “RTZ are a huge supporter of what we're doing.” According to Stalker, the partnership follows nearly a year of discussions, starting from the PDAC conference in Toronto.

He said Bradda was selected because of its track record, professional management, and previous success in the US lithium space, particularly in Arizona. The proximity of Whistlejacket to Bradda’s existing San Domingo project creates potential synergies, enabling the company to leverage a single management structure and streamlined operations.

Stalker also addressed the scale of the opportunity, stating that while the project may not be a tier-one asset, it fits well in the tier two or three category. He said the goal now is to grow a sizable and economic lithium resource by combining San Domingo and Whistlejacket.

He further highlighted the company’s diversified lithium portfolio in Arizona, noting, “Bradda itself is not only hard rock lithium in the Spodumene scenario, we still have our existing NI 43-101 compliant resource and the lithium in clays.”

      <title>Valereum joins up with Injective and DigiShares to deliver compliant RWA tokenisation</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ) commercial director Mark Mariampillai talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategic partnership with Injective Foundation and DigiShares, aimed at accelerating real-world asset (RWA) tokenisation. Mariampillai explained that the collaboration solves a key industry challenge - buy-side exposure - by connecting DeFi-native users to traditional finance rails through Valereum's regulated platform.

"This partnership really unlocks both of those angles," said Mariampillai. "It exposes us to a big, wide ecosystem that Injective are involved in, and it's going to help us bridge crypto digital asset natives over to TradFi rails."

Valereum is targeting the onboarding of between 1,000 to 10,000 users to its marketplace, focusing on qualified retail, high-net-worth individuals, institutions, and family offices. Compliance remains central to this process, with all participants vetted under regulatory frameworks.

A key highlight is the expected onboarding of Wageen Corp, a startup similar to Uber in Panama, onto the Injective blockchain, subject to regulatory approvals. Valereum anticipates this will represent $6 million in Total Value Locked (TVL), a significant milestone for a single asset on-chain.

Looking ahead, Mariampillai noted the aim is to facilitate repeat issuances and drive demand-side FOMO, likening the growth potential to how Revolut transformed crowdfunding. He also emphasised that Valereum is a registered Digital Asset Service Provider (DASP) in El Salvador, providing regulated infrastructure for these offerings.

Valereum is targeting the onboarding of between 1,000 to 10,000 users to its marketplace, focusing on qualified retail, high-net-worth individuals, institutions, and family offices. Compliance remains central to this process, with all participants vetted under regulatory frameworks.

A key highlight is the expected onboarding of Wageen Corp, a startup similar to Uber in Panama, onto the Injective blockchain, subject to regulatory approvals. Valereum anticipates this will represent $6 million in Total Value Locked (TVL), a significant milestone for a single asset on-chain.

Looking ahead, Mariampillai noted the aim is to facilitate repeat issuances and drive demand-side FOMO, likening the growth potential to how Revolut transformed crowdfunding. He also emphasised that Valereum is a registered Digital Asset Service Provider (DASP) in El Salvador, providing regulated infrastructure for these offerings.

      <title>hVIVO beats 2025 EBITDA forecasts, eyes growth in 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[hVIVO PLC (AIM:HVO) chief executive Yamin ‘Mo’ Khan takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company’s unaudited trading update for 2025, which revealed a strong performance amid industry-wide challenges.

hVIVO expects to report revenue of approximately £46.7 million for full-year 2025, in line with previous guidance, and anticipates EBITDA margins ahead of expectations, reversing a previously forecasted loss. Khan credited a stronger-than-expected Q4, early structural changes, and cancellation fees that carried high margins as key contributors to this outcome.

He also highlighted hVIVO’s strategic acquisitions of Cryostore in the UK and German CRO CRS. These deals filled a key gap in hVIVO’s service offerings, enabling the company to become a full-service, early-phase drug development provider across multiple therapeutic areas including cardiometabolic, respiratory and immunology.

“We are no longer a one-trick pony,” Khan said, referencing the diversification of services beyond infectious diseases and human challenge trials. He added that the company has restructured into four service pillars: clinical trials, human challenge trials, consulting, and lab services.

Discussing macroeconomic challenges in 2025, Khan acknowledged the headwinds but expressed optimism for 2026, supported by increased biotech funding and M&A activity. He pointed to the acquisition of hVIVO client Cidara by Merck as a strong signal of sector confidence.

hVIVO’s sales pipeline has broadened, with more varied opportunities and greater conversion rates into contracts. The company also aims to grow its presence in key therapeutic areas like cardiometabolic diseases and respiratory conditions, supported by a strong multinational infrastructure.

      <title>Powerhouse Energy moves ahead with planning application for Ballymena waste-to-hydrogen facility</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Powerhouse Energy Group PLC (AIM:PHE, FRA:BT81) CEO Paul Emmitt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about progress on the company's first UK hydrogen project in Ballymena, Northern Ireland, following the submission of a full planning application for the proposed 40 tonnes per day waste-to-hydrogen facility.

Emmitt explained that Ballymena had been a strategic focus for over 18 months, offering local feedstock availability, supportive councils, and existing infrastructure on the former Michelin site. He said the project will follow a design-build-operate model, with Powerhouse seeking project-specific finance rather than shareholder funding.

"This gives Powerhouse something that we control," Emmitt said, highlighting the project’s significance in providing full operational oversight. He noted that the company has already moved from lease signing to planning submission, thanks to strong support from local partner Noage Energy and engineering firm Engsolve.

The plant will convert landfill-bound waste into hydrogen — a proposition Emmitt described as particularly attractive to councils and transport partners, given the scarcity of green hydrogen across the island of Ireland. Powerhouse is also in ongoing discussions with feedstock suppliers and offtakers, including an LOI with BS Holdings for a separate project.

Key milestones for 2026 include planning application responses, permit triggering, and finalisation of supply agreements. Emmitt said the company is aiming to maintain momentum after a strong start to the year.

      <title>Phunware unveils new website and hospitality products to elevate guest experiences</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Phunware Inc. CEO Jeremy Krol joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the launch of a redesigned corporate website alongside a newly refined portfolio of hospitality-focused products aimed at enhancing guest experiences, deepening engagement, and driving incremental revenue opportunities for property owners and operators. The update marks an important step in showcasing Phunware’s evolution as a leader in mobile software solutions tailored to large, complex hospitality environments.

Krol told Proactive that the redesigned website reflects Phunware’s forward-thinking approach and highlights the company’s expanding capabilities in mobile technology, with a clear emphasis on the fast-growing hospitality sector. The dynamic, user-friendly, and content-rich platform presents a streamlined product offering and demonstrates how Phunware’s advanced location, mapping, and wayfinding technologies help remove friction across the guest journey. By improving navigation and on-property interactions, Phunware’s solutions enhance guest satisfaction, build loyalty, and enable hospitality staff to focus on delivering higher-touch, personalized services.

The updated website also introduces two hospitality-specific product tiers—one designed for luxury brands and another for full-service property owners. Both offerings provide modular, native mobile applications supported by cloud-driven updates and a suite of tools to improve on-property guest engagement, simplify discovery of amenities and events, and unlock new ancillary revenue streams. 

These solutions are purpose-built to address the challenges faced by large, spatially complex hotels and resorts that host a wide range of services, amenities, and experiences under one roof.

Phunware’s Luxury Engagement product tier, created for premium and ultra-luxury hospitality brands, delivers fully personalized digital guest experiences. Leveraging the company’s deep wayfinding and location intelligence, the platform serves as a branded, immersive digital companion throughout a guest’s stay. It is designed to anticipate guest needs, enhance discovery, reinforce a property’s premium identity at every touchpoint, and ultimately strengthen guest relationships while driving higher-value engagement and revenue.

Complementing this offering is the Enriched Experience product tier, developed for full-service hospitality properties. This solution provides flexible options to elevate guest engagement across key touchpoints, promote on-site discovery, and expand revenue opportunities. Built on Phunware’s core services, the Enriched Experience tier enables deeper interactivity, more curated exploration of the property, and smarter, more dynamic engagement with services, amenities, and events—helping properties deliver more memorable stays and improved financial performance.

      <title>OKYO Pharma clears key FDA meeting for Urcosimod Phase 2b/3 Trial</title>
      <description><![CDATA[OKYO Pharma’s new CEO Robert Dempsey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has completed a successful Type C meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration regarding the planned Phase 2b/3 human clinical trial of urcosimod for the treatment of neuropathic corneal pain.

Dempsey told Proactive that the FDA confirmed the company’s proposed primary efficacy endpoint—reduction in ocular pain as measured by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at Week 12—is clinically meaningful. Importantly, the agency explicitly acknowledged that a reduction of at least two points on the VAS scale represents a meaningful treatment effect for patients suffering from this condition.

In addition, the FDA provided statistical guidance aimed at strengthening the overall robustness of the trial. The agency noted that if the statistical analysis plan is finalized prior to unmasking and the study results are compelling, the data could potentially serve as substantial evidence of effectiveness at a future End-of-Phase 2b/3 meeting.

The FDA also endorsed OKYO Pharma’s proposed study design, including sample size and powering assumptions, reinforcing confidence in the company’s clinical strategy. Furthermore, the agency agreed that the Ocular Pain Assessment Survey is appropriate as supportive quality-of-life evidence, complementing the primary endpoint.

Dempsey added that the company is aligned with the FDA on its Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) strategy, as well as other key clinical elements of the program. No material issues were raised during the meeting, which management believes significantly de-risks the regulatory pathway toward a pivotal trial and supports the potential for future registration, assuming the Phase 2b/3 study delivers robust clinical results.

      <itunes:summary>OKYO Pharma’s new CEO Robert Dempsey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has completed a successful Type C meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration regarding the planned Phase 2b/3 human clinical trial of urcosimod for the treatment of neuropathic corneal pain.

Dempsey told Proactive that the FDA confirmed the company’s proposed primary efficacy endpoint—reduction in ocular pain as measured by the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) at Week 12—is clinically meaningful. Importantly, the agency explicitly acknowledged that a reduction of at least two points on the VAS scale represents a meaningful treatment effect for patients suffering from this condition.

In addition, the FDA provided statistical guidance aimed at strengthening the overall robustness of the trial. The agency noted that if the statistical analysis plan is finalized prior to unmasking and the study results are compelling, the data could potentially serve as substantial evidence of effectiveness at a future End-of-Phase 2b/3 meeting.

The FDA also endorsed OKYO Pharma’s proposed study design, including sample size and powering assumptions, reinforcing confidence in the company’s clinical strategy. Furthermore, the agency agreed that the Ocular Pain Assessment Survey is appropriate as supportive quality-of-life evidence, complementing the primary endpoint.

Dempsey added that the company is aligned with the FDA on its Chemistry, Manufacturing, and Controls (CMC) strategy, as well as other key clinical elements of the program.

      <title>M2i–Volato merger aligned with new U.S. critical minerals policy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to highlight how the company’s proposed business combination with Volato is closely aligned with recent U.S. policy actions aimed at strengthening domestic and allied supply chains for processed critical minerals and their derivative products.

Rosende told Proactive that the White House recently announced actions under Section 232 of the Trade Expansion Act, directing negotiations to adjust imports of processed critical minerals and related products into the United States on national security grounds. These policy measures underscore the growing importance of secure, transparent, and resilient supply chains for materials that are critical to defense, aerospace, advanced manufacturing, and a wide range of emerging technologies.
Against this backdrop, the proposed merger between Volato and M2i is expected to create a more robust, integrated platform with enhanced capabilities across logistics, technology, and operational execution. 

Management believes the combined company will be better positioned to support customers operating in sectors directly affected by evolving critical-minerals policy, particularly those requiring disciplined compliance, traceability, and secure handling of sensitive materials.
The companies also believe the transaction will strengthen their ability to participate in U.S.-based and allied-country supply chain initiatives, including transportation, coordination, and technology-enabled solutions tied to regulated and security-sensitive materials. By bringing together Volato’s and M2i’s complementary strengths, the combined organization aims to address the increasing demand for reliability, transparency, and accountability across critical-minerals supply chains.

Rosende emphasized that the heightened policy focus on critical minerals reinforces the need for operational reliability, secure logistics, and precise execution. He added that the combined capabilities of Volato and M2i position the company to engage effectively with customers and strategic partners navigating these policy shifts, while remaining aligned with U.S. regulatory frameworks and national security priorities.

      <title>Northstar Gold secures up to $4M in DIGITAL funding for Cam Copper Mining project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Northstar Gold Corp CEO Brian Fowler joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company, together with its project partners, has received approval to access up to $4.0 million in total co-investment funding from DIGITAL – Canada’s Global Innovation Cluster for digital technologies. 

The funding will support Northstar’s Cam Copper Surgical Mining for Critical Minerals Project, which is focused on advancing innovative and sustainable approaches to mineral extraction.
The Project is designed to leverage Novamera’s proprietary Surgical Mining technology, an advanced method intended to accelerate the production of critical minerals in a more efficient and environmentally responsible manner. Northstar is participating as a consortium partner alongside Novamera and Micon International Limited, combining technical, operational, and geological expertise to move the project forward.

Fowler told Proactive that Northstar expects to receive up to approximately $1.8 million, net of fees and adjustments, in co-investment funding over the life of the Project. This net funding is expected to represent roughly 30% of the total Project-approved expenditures, which are estimated at approximately $11.0 million. Funding will be paid over the Project term to the three partners—Novamera, Northstar, and Micon International Limited—based on eligible expenditures incurred.

The Cam Copper Project is focused on advancing Novamera’s Surgical Mining technology for the sustainable extraction of critical minerals, including copper, which plays a vital role in electrification, renewable energy, and advanced manufacturing. By minimizing surface disruption and improving resource recovery, the technology aims to deliver a faster, lower-impact pathway to critical mineral production.

Subject to final partner confirmations and remaining DIGITAL approvals, Northstar expects to receive its first reimbursement for eligible Project expenditures of approximately $300,000 on or before mid-April 2026. The Company views this milestone as a meaningful step toward de-risking the project, strengthening its balance sheet, and positioning Northstar at the forefront of next-generation, technology-enabled mining solutions for critical minerals.

      <title>Genflow CEO outlines 2026 priorities as €4 million grant is approved</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF, FRA:WQ5) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategic progress and outlook for 2026, following a €4 million non-dilutive grant awarded by the Wallonia region. Dr Leire explained that the secured funding is part of Genflow’s broader capital efficiency strategy, helping the company focus on key pipeline catalysts, including its lead gene therapy, GF-1002.

GF-1002 is targeted at MASH (Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis), a field Dr Leire described as “a huge unmet need,” particularly at the late stage where there are currently no therapeutic options. “This is one of the key programs for 2026,” he said, highlighting that GF-1002 addresses severe liver conditions, including hepatocellular carcinoma.

In addition to its gene therapy program, Genflow is advancing a pioneering longevity study in dogs. Leire stated, “A study on aged dogs, naive to therapies, that's blinded, randomised, so with very strong scientific standard will be a first in terms of longevity.” He emphasised the potential for a commercial deal with animal health companies based on this unique dataset.

Partnerships and capital efficiency remain central to Genflow’s plans. Leire noted that monetising non-core programs, such as the dog study, can generate significant non-dilutive capital and allow the company to focus on areas where it adds the most value.

Leire stated, “A study on aged dogs, naive to therapies, that&apos;s blinded, randomised, so with very strong scientific standard will be a first in terms of longevity.” He emphasised the potential for a commercial deal with animal health companies based on this unique dataset.

Partnerships and capital efficiency remain central to Genflow’s plans. Leire noted that monetising non-core programs, such as the dog study, can generate significant non-dilutive capital and allow the company to focus on areas where it adds the most value.

      <title>TNR Gold eyes lithium royalties &amp; share buybacks after 240% share price rise</title>
      <description><![CDATA[TNR Gold Corp (TSX-V:TNR, OTC:TRRXF) executive chairman Kirill Klip talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong start to 2026, highlighting the next key milestones after a 240% share price increase in 2025.

Klip outlined how TNR Gold plans to minimize dilution, pursue share buybacks, and potentially introduce a dividend policy subject to regulatory approval. A major catalyst this year is the anticipated first royalty payment from Ganfeng Lithium tied to the Mariana Lithium project in Argentina. “Our general strategy will be to minimize dilution to absolute minimum... and to increase the returns for all our shareholders,” said Klip.

He also noted a 60% increase in lithium resources at Mariana, with production scaling up and Ganfeng preparing an application for Argentina’s large investment incentive program.

On the copper front, Klip discussed the Los Azules project, now bolstered by copper prices surpassing $13,000 per tonne. He said royalties from this project could reach $8 million annually, while lithium royalties may climb to $1.6 million based on new estimates.

Regarding gold, Klip discussed the Shotgun Gold project in Alaska, where TNR is seeking a strategic partner. He revealed plans for a potential spin-out named AmeriGold, in which existing shareholders would receive shares.

      <title>Solvonis Therapeutics&apos; Prof. David Nutt on breakthrough depression treatment</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Solvonis Therapeutics PLC (LSE:SVNS) chief scientific officer Professor David Nutt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about promising new data from preclinical trials of its lead molecule, SVN-015. The compound has demonstrated comparable performance to fluoxetine (Prozac) in validated rodent models of depression, suggesting potential for clinical success.

Professor Nutt explained that SVN-015 represents a rare dual-action approach, functioning as both a serotonin and dopamine reuptake inhibitor—something pharmaceutical companies have sought unsuccessfully for decades. “This molecule will give you a bit of dopamine,” he said, noting that this could address symptoms that traditional SSRIs fail to treat, such as fatigue, low energy, and anhedonia.

He emphasised the drug’s potential value for patients who don’t fully respond to current antidepressants, which remains a large unmet need. “About 50% of people treated with SSRIs like Prozac don't make a full recovery,” he said. The team at Solvonis sees SVN-015 as a candidate for both treatment-resistant cases and potentially as a first-line option depending on investment and trial outcomes.

Professor Nutt also discussed the advantages of SVN-015’s once-daily oral formulation, contrasting it with more complex emerging therapies like psychedelics or ketamine. The simplicity of oral dosing may improve scalability, cost, and acceptance among payers and patients.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai launches Nextech Credit to power unified enterprise engagement</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the official launch of Nextech Credit™, a new universal enterprise credit system developed in-house to power the company’s expanding digital and experiential ecosystem, including its Krafty Labs platform. The proprietary innovation is designed to simplify procurement, strengthen customer loyalty, and drive deeper adoption across Nextech3D.ai’s portfolio of enterprise solutions.

Gappelberg told Proactive that Nextech Credit™ functions as a single, dollar-denominated currency, enabling enterprise customers to centralize and streamline their engagement spending. Once purchased, credits can be used interchangeably across all Nextech3D.ai business units, including Eventdex for event ticketing and registration, Map D for spatial navigation and immersive experiences, and Krafty Labs for both virtual and in-person team engagement offerings. This unified approach is intended to reduce administrative friction while providing enterprises with greater flexibility in how they deploy their budgets.

To encourage long-term partnerships and multi-platform utilization, Nextech3D.ai has also introduced a Credit Incentive Ladder, a tiered rewards structure that offers bonus credits and access to premium services for enterprise clients that consolidate a greater share of their engagement spend within the Nextech ecosystem. The company believes this structure will not only enhance customer retention but also increase average contract value by incentivizing broader use of its platforms.

With the launch of Nextech Credit™, Krafty Labs is now fully integrated into Nextech3D.ai’s financial and operational infrastructure. Under the company’s “Powered by Nextech” framework, all engagement programs—ranging from virtual team-building experiences to large-scale, global in-person activations—are fueled by the same Nextech Credit™ currency. Nextech3D.ai says this integration further positions the company to scale efficiently while delivering a seamless, end-to-end enterprise engagement solution.

      <title>Virtuix debuts on Nasdaq as Omni VR technology scales across markets</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Virtuix Holding CEO Jan Goetgeluk joind Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s milestone debut on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol VTIX, marking a significant step in Virtuix’s growth as it scales its proprietary virtual reality technology across both consumer and defense markets.

Virtuix is best known for its Omni technology, which enables full 360-degree movement in virtual reality, allowing users to walk, run, and move naturally within immersive digital environments. Goetgeluk highlighted the strong early traction of Omni One, the company’s latest system designed specifically for home use. “We recently launched Omni One, and we reported 138% year-over-year growth in our S-1 filing,” he said, pointing to rising consumer demand for more immersive VR experiences.

Omni One delivers full physical immersion by allowing users to physically move while remaining safely in place, creating a more realistic and engaging experience for gaming and entertainment. Beyond gaming, Goetgeluk emphasized the system’s fitness benefits, noting that one customer reportedly lost 40 pounds in just four months through regular use, underscoring the platform’s potential as a gamified fitness solution.

Virtuix is also gaining momentum in the defense sector with the introduction of its Virtual Terrain Walk system. Powered by artificial intelligence and Gaussian splatting technology, the platform enables soldiers to rehearse missions in highly realistic virtual environments generated from real-world locations in a matter of hours. The system allows for immersive, repeatable training scenarios that can be rapidly customized to operational needs.

Goetgeluk noted that Virtual Terrain Walk units are already deployed at key military institutions, including the U.S. Air Force Academy and Yokota Air Force Base, demonstrating growing adoption within defense training environments.

Following its Nasdaq listing, Virtuix has strengthened its financial position, securing $11 million in funding from Chicago Venture Partners and establishing a $50 million equity line. These resources are expected to support the company’s plans to scale operations, expand product development, and accelerate growth across both its consumer and defense businesses.

      <itunes:subtitle>Virtuix Holding CEO Jan Goetgeluk joind Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s milestone debut on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol VTIX, marking a significant step in Virtuix’s growth as it scales its proprietary virtual reality technology across both consumer and defense markets.

Virtuix is best known for its Omni technology, which enables full 360-degree movement in virtual reality, allowing users to walk, run, and move naturally within immersive digital environments. Goetgeluk highlighted the strong early traction of Omni One, the company’s latest system designed specifically for home use. “We recently launched Omni One, and we reported 138% year-over-year growth in our S-1 filing,” he said, pointing to rising consumer demand for more immersive VR experiences.

Omni One delivers full physical immersion by allowing users to physically move while remaining safely in place, creating a more realistic and engaging experience for gaming and entertainment. Beyond gaming, Goetgeluk emphasized the system’s fitness benefits, noting that one customer reportedly lost 40 pounds in just four months through regular use, underscoring the platform’s potential as a gamified fitness solution.

Virtuix is also gaining momentum in the defense sector with the introduction of its Virtual Terrain Walk system. Powered by artificial intelligence and Gaussian splatting technology, the platform enables soldiers to rehearse missions in highly realistic virtual environments generated from real-world locations in a matter of hours. The system allows for immersive, repeatable training scenarios that can be rapidly customized to operational needs.

Goetgeluk noted that Virtual Terrain Walk units are already deployed at key military institutions, including the U.S. Air Force Academy and Yokota Air Force Base, demonstrating growing adoption within defense training environments.

Following its Nasdaq listing, Virtuix has strengthened its financial position, securing $11 million in funding from Chicago Venture Partners and establishing a $50 million equity line. These resources are expected to support the company’s plans to scale operations, expand product development, and accelerate growth across both its consumer and defense businesses.

      <title>Pan African Resources CEO Cobus Loots on record growth, elevated gold price &amp; reducing debt</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pan African Resources PLC (AIM:PAF, OTCQX:PAFRY, JSE:PAN) CEO Cobus Loots talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong operational update for the first half of the year, highlighting a 51% increase in group gold production. This performance was driven by key operations at Elikhulu, the commissioning of the MTR project in Johannesburg, and early contributions from the Tennant project in Australia.

Loots specifically pointed to the improved output from Evander, stating, “That infrastructure is now fully commissioned and operating as it should. But with higher grades, we can expect an even better performance.”

He also noted the contribution of the elevated gold price, which enabled Pan African to cut net debt by over 65%. The company expects to be net debt-free by the end of February, and has proposed an interim dividend. Loots emphasised that Pan African has maintained a strong balance between returns, reinvestment, and growth.

Looking ahead, he said costs were impacted by factors beyond the company’s control, including a stronger rand and one-off share option costs, but anticipated that increased production in the second half would help reduce unit costs.

Loots described the Soweto Tailings project as a “very exciting growth” opportunity, with a definitive study due by June. Meanwhile, Australian operations at Tennant are set to double production in the second half, with encouraging exploration results suggesting long-term potential.

He concluded by reaffirming the company’s conservative approach to planning and investment decisions, noting that projects like Soweto remain compelling even at much lower gold prices.

      <title>OptiBiotix Health: SlimBiome demand grows as GLP-1 alternatives surge</title>
      <description><![CDATA[OptiBiotix Health PLC (AIM:OPTI, OTCQB:OPTBF) chief executive Stephen O’Hara talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s growing exposure to the weight management and gut health markets, highlighting rising global demand for its SlimBiome product and the strategic importance of its US expansion.

O’Hara explained that OptiBiotix Health is a microbiome company focused on developing products that address unmet healthcare needs rather than selling science alone. One of the company’s flagship products, SlimBiome, is a patented ingredient designed to reduce hunger and food cravings, helping consumers eat less and manage weight more effectively. He noted that SlimBiome has won multiple awards and is already sold globally, with a recent US launch through Hydroxycut Hunger Control, an extension of America’s leading weight management brand.

Discussing recent commercial momentum, O’Hara pointed to a substantial 24-metric-tonne order from Meelung Trading in Taiwan, which he said reflects accelerating demand across Asia. He linked this growth to increased interest in alternatives to GLP-1 drugs such as Ozempic and semaglutide, explaining that some consumers prefer not to take drugs, cannot afford them, or are seeking weight maintenance solutions after stopping medication. As O’Hara put it, “this is a big market… worth $1.2 billion in 2024 and growing about 17% per year.”

The interview also covered OptiBiotix Health’s broader product platform, including WellBiome for gut health, SweetBiotix as a sweet fibre, and longer-term microbiome modulators. O’Hara additionally outlined the rationale for the company joining the OTCQB market last year, which increases accessibility and liquidity for US investors at a time of growing awareness of the microbiome sector in the US.

      <title>SSV Capital PLC CEO: Profit with purpose drives 2026 vision</title>
      <description><![CDATA[SSV Capital PLC CEO Ankur Ghosh talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s performance in 2025 and its ambitious plans for 2026, focusing on building a fully embedded finance ecosystem.

Ghosh highlighted that SSV began 2025 with the early redemption of its convertible loan notes—many of which were reinvested—demonstrating strong investor confidence. The company also reported profitability, aligned with its core philosophy of “profit with purpose.”

Among key achievements was the progress of SSV SmartPay, the company’s open banking payments platform, which has seen increasing adoption, particularly in account-to-account transactions. “Today open banking is becoming very, very popular,” said Ghosh, adding that SmartPay now works with various merchants, with average transactions of £250–300.

Another major milestone was introducing SSV Smart Account, a safeguarded digital wallet solution launching in Q2 2026.

Ghosh also spoke about SSV Funds SARL, an independent GP in Luxembourg, which aims to provide capital access to the company’s fintech and proptech divisions.

Looking ahead, SSV plans to introduce a Buy-Now-Pay-Later solution by Q3 2027, completing its embedded finance vision.

      <title>Ilika CEO on solid-state battery progress and 2026 outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more on the company’s major milestones in solid-state battery development and what investors can expect in 2026.

Purdy said 2025 was a pivotal period for the company, highlighting significant progress across both its Goliath and Stereax battery programmes. Purdy explained that 2025 delivered key technical and commercial milestones, positioning Ilika at the forefront of solid-state battery innovation.

Starting with Goliath, Ilika’s large-format solid-state battery aimed at electric vehicles and consumer applications, Purdy confirmed that early 2Ah prototypes successfully validated performance. He said the batteries “did what it says on the tin”, helping to build credibility with customers and placing Ilika among a small, leading cohort of global solid-state battery developers. Progress continued with the commissioning of an automated assembly line, enabling the production of 10Ah prototype cells that were released to customers by the end of the year.

Purdy also highlighted the importance of partnerships in accelerating development, including collaboration with Jaguar Land Rover, Oxford University’s Professor Paul Shearing, and the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre. These partnerships, he noted, reduce cost, improve safety outcomes, and help avoid unnecessary development risks.

Turning to Stereax, Ilika’s small-format battery technology for medical devices, Purdy outlined how a technology transfer agreement with Cirtec Medical led to process qualification and the start of production. The company has now received its first purchase order related to Stereax M300 batteries, marking the beginning of production ramp-up and revenue generation.

Looking ahead, Purdy said Ilika is “working at the leading edge of battery deployment” and is within reach of some of the largest and most exciting battery markets globally.

      <itunes:summary>Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more on the company’s major milestones in solid-state battery development and what investors can expect in 2026.

Purdy said 2025 was a pivotal period for the company, highlighting significant progress across both its Goliath and Stereax battery programmes. Purdy explained that 2025 delivered key technical and commercial milestones, positioning Ilika at the forefront of solid-state battery innovation.

Starting with Goliath, Ilika’s large-format solid-state battery aimed at electric vehicles and consumer applications, Purdy confirmed that early 2Ah prototypes successfully validated performance. He said the batteries “did what it says on the tin”, helping to build credibility with customers and placing Ilika among a small, leading cohort of global solid-state battery developers. Progress continued with the commissioning of an automated assembly line, enabling the production of 10Ah prototype cells that were released to customers by the end of the year.

Purdy also highlighted the importance of partnerships in accelerating development, including collaboration with Jaguar Land Rover, Oxford University’s Professor Paul Shearing, and the UK Battery Industrialisation Centre. These partnerships, he noted, reduce cost, improve safety outcomes, and help avoid unnecessary development risks.

Turning to Stereax, Ilika’s small-format battery technology for medical devices, Purdy outlined how a technology transfer agreement with Cirtec Medical led to process qualification and the start of production. The company has now received its first purchase order related to Stereax M300 batteries, marking the beginning of production ramp-up and revenue generation.

Looking ahead, Purdy said Ilika is “working at the leading edge of battery deployment” and is within reach of some of the largest and most exciting battery markets globally.

      <title>Tooru eyes major retail expansion in 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tooru PLC (AIM:TOO) CEO Scott Livingston talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's strong momentum following its AIM listing and strategic consolidation of subsidiaries. Livingston explained that the post-RTO period has been pivotal in aligning Tooru’s challenger brands under one umbrella, generating synergies and improving cost efficiency.

Highlighting the growing mainstream appeal of the "free-from" category, Livingston described it as a lifestyle choice beyond those with medical dietary needs. He sees a “massive opportunity to become more mainstream as free-from and good-for-you products,” noting that if executed well, “we should have exponential growth.”

Among Tooru’s brands, OAF stands out, with standout performance in Tesco stores. Livingston attributes its success to bold packaging, great taste, and organic social media buzz: “There’s a lot of social media that is unpaid for, where people are sharing news about their new find.” He also hinted at conversations with other major UK retailers, suggesting that 2026 could be a breakout year for the brand.

Pulsin continues to show resilience, posting positive EBITDA despite recent operational disruptions. Production is moving from Gloucester to Wales, aligning costs with demand as the brand continues to serve strong consumer demand in the protein, keto, and fibre bar segments.

Looking ahead, Livingston revealed a two-pronged strategy: expanding into major retailers and entering international markets, while also exploring strategic acquisitions that align with Tooru’s consumer base and operational capabilities. The aim is to build a large-scale bakery business that combines mass-market branding (via OAF) with prescription product stability (via Juvela).

      <title>Valereum PLC CEO on $200m funding and near-term transactions</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ) chief executive Gary Cottle talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s next phase of growth following the completion of a transaction that adds $200 million to its balance sheet, and how that capital supports Valereum’s strategy across tokenisation, markets infrastructure and banking-as-a-service.

Cottle explained that Valereum has built a strong pipeline of transactions, with several announcements expected in the near term. He noted that some of these opportunities have been in development for several months and are now reaching the point where they can be taken to market, while others remain in the middle of negotiations, with commercial terms broadly agreed but mandates still pending.

The chief executive also discussed progress at Valereum Markets, including transactions that are now ready to move forward following regulatory approvals in El Salvador. He said the company is working to balance focus and flexibility as it positions itself as a payments and financial infrastructure provider, while also pursuing investment-style opportunities that may take longer to deliver revenue.

Cottle outlined how Valereum is seeking to connect tokenisation with banking-as-a-service, highlighting the early stages of real-world asset tokenisation and growing momentum across areas such as real estate and natural resources. He pointed to increasing activity across the sector as platforms and participants move from development into execution.

“We’ve really got the build out of what is the distribution platforms,” Cottle said, adding that Valereum expects to make further announcements as these capabilities are rolled out.

Looking ahead, Cottle said Valereum expects to remain active over the coming months as it works through its pipeline and looks to leverage the experience of partners such as Quorium Global Photonics (QGP), while continuing to bring structured and distributed tokenised transactions to market.

      <title>Stillwater Critical Minerals targets key US resources</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Stillwater Critical Minerals CEO Michael Rowley joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company's progress at its flagship project in Montana, located within the renowned Stillwater Complex. The company controls the lower Stillwater Complex, an area of significant geological importance, and is applying advanced geological thinking drawn from South Africa’s Bushveld Complex to unlock its potential.

Rowley outlined major achievements from the past year, including a substantial drill campaign and the debut of a detailed geological model — the first of its kind for the area. “We’re hitting mid-grade to high-grade. Better than ever. That’s been the secret sauce here,” Rowley said, highlighting the project's strong mineralization.

In 2025, Stillwater completed two financings totalling over $25 million, including strategic support from Glencore. These funds position the company to pursue its largest exploration campaigns to date in 2026. A key catalyst expected soon is the release of assay results from recent drilling, which have been delayed but are described as imminent.

Rowley also confirmed work on a new resource estimate is underway, supported by Mine Technical Services — a team with prior experience on South Africa’s Platreef. The project boasts impressive in-ground resources: 1.6 billion pounds of nickel, copper, and cobalt; 3.8 million ounces of gold; and 2.3 billion pounds of chromium, with additional platinum group metals.

      <title>Silver X Mining eyes 6M oz output by 2029</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Silver X Mining Corp CEO Jose Garcia joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s strong growth trajectory and expansion plans. 

Garcia explained that the Peru-based silver producer currently outputs 1.25 million ounces of silver annually, but is targeting a fivefold increase by 2029. He highlighted the company’s significant land package in central Peru and ongoing production, which is bolstered by favourable silver prices.

“We’re going to demonstrate that quarter after quarter,” Garcia said, referring to ongoing productivity improvements and exploration updates.

A key catalyst for this projected growth is a 40,000 metre drill campaign, which has already returned positive high-grade results. Alongside this, the company plans to double the capacity of its existing 700-tonne-per-day mill and construct a second processing facility. By 2029, Silver X expects to operate a mining complex with three mines and two mills, processing 3,000 tonnes per day and producing 6–7 million ounces of silver equivalent annually.

Garcia also emphasized local support: “We have pretty good agreements, long-term agreements with our communities,” adding that Peru remains one of the most favourable mining jurisdictions globally.

With recent investor backing and operational success, the company has grown more than tenfold over the past year. Garcia closed by noting that 2026 will bring further exploration and production results, along with progress on permitting to support the mill expansion.

      <itunes:summary>Silver X Mining Corp CEO Jose Garcia joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s strong growth trajectory and expansion plans. 

Garcia explained that the Peru-based silver producer currently outputs 1.25 million ounces of silver annually, but is targeting a fivefold increase by 2029. He highlighted the company’s significant land package in central Peru and ongoing production, which is bolstered by favourable silver prices.

“We’re going to demonstrate that quarter after quarter,” Garcia said, referring to ongoing productivity improvements and exploration updates.

A key catalyst for this projected growth is a 40,000 metre drill campaign, which has already returned positive high-grade results. Alongside this, the company plans to double the capacity of its existing 700-tonne-per-day mill and construct a second processing facility. By 2029, Silver X expects to operate a mining complex with three mines and two mills, processing 3,000 tonnes per day and producing 6–7 million ounces of silver equivalent annually.

Garcia also emphasized local support: “We have pretty good agreements, long-term agreements with our communities,” adding that Peru remains one of the most favourable mining jurisdictions globally.

With recent investor backing and operational success, the company has grown more than tenfold over the past year. Garcia closed by noting that 2026 will bring further exploration and production results, along with progress on permitting to support the mill expansion.

      <title>Gold Production begins at Blue Lagoon Resources</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Blue Lagoon Resources CEO Rana Vig joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s successful transition into gold and silver production at its high-grade underground mine near Smithers, British Columbia.

Vig explained that Blue Lagoon has started generating revenue, shipping its first 1,000 tonnes of material and receiving a $1 million payment. “We just started actual production in November... there’s no better time to be in production,” Vig said, citing strong gold and silver prices and the high-grade nature of the mine — averaging nine grams per tonne.

The company’s strategy is to reinvest cash flow into exploration. Vig said only 10% of its 22,000-hectare land package has been explored so far. “We have a huge 18km strike length that hasn’t been touched yet,” he noted.

Drilling will resume in the summer, with infill and exploration programs planned to expand resources, especially targeting a clear path to over one million ounces on a single vein. Blue Lagoon has already completed 50,000m of drilling since acquiring the project in 2020.

Investors can expect further news as production ramps up and new opportunities are evaluated. Vig hinted at potential growth initiatives, stating, “Even when you have money, you get a seat at the table.”

      <title>Mineros S.A. Eyes Growth With Nicaragua Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Mineros S.A. Vice President of Investor Relations Ann Wilkinson joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s remarkable transformation and ambitious growth plans.

Wilkinson shared that Mineros S.A., a Latin American gold producer with a 51-year history, has often flown under the radar despite producing over 200,000 ounces of gold annually and consistently paying dividends for more than four decades. “We’ve been paying a dividend for about four decades. So it's a really robust company that a lot of people just really didn’t know about,” she noted.

She highlighted a major turning point in March 2024 when a new major shareholder came on board, introducing a refreshed strategic vision. This shift led to a rationalization of costs and optimization of production across their operations, particularly in Nicaragua, where Mineros recently achieved a record December production of over 20,000 ounces.

Looking ahead, Wilkinson said the company is targeting 300,000 ounces of annual production in the short to medium term through organic growth and potential acquisitions. A key near-term catalyst is a decision on the Porvenir project in Nicaragua, which boasts 572,000 ounces in reserves and a projected nine-year mine life.

Wilkinson emphasized that part of her mission is simply getting the word out: “This is probably the biggest company that existed for five decades that I have never heard of,” she recounted from investor feedback.

      <title>Empress Royalty sees record revenue growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Empress Royalty Corp CEO Alexandra Woodyer Sherron joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s momentum as it moves into 2026, following a record-breaking year in 2025. Woodyer Sherron described the rising investor interest in gold and silver, and how Empress Royalty is well-positioned to capture further growth.

The company, which was established to serve the junior end of the market, now generates revenue from four active investments. “Out of the four investments, we did just under $11 million US revenue for the first nine months of the year,” said Woodyer Sherron. She added that Empress Royalty is forecasting over $25 million in 2026, as the portfolio companies ramp up production and hit higher grades.

With approximately $8 million in cash on hand and more accumulated since September, the company is actively reviewing new opportunities. A regional business development strategy is now in place with team members based in Toronto, Johannesburg, and London to support deal flow across the Americas and Africa.

“We’ve really evolved our business development strategy,” she noted, highlighting Empress’ focus on deployment discipline and cost control. The company has seen its market cap increase from $30 million to $100 million Canadian over the past year.

      <title>Blue Sky Uranium taps 70Mlb district potential</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Blue Sky Uranium Corp CEO Niko Cacos joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company's exciting developments in Argentina as global interest in uranium surges. Cacos explained that Blue Sky Uranium is advancing a unique and extensive uranium district in Argentina, which spans over 145km and includes a deposit of more than 70 million pounds of uranium.

The company is currently partnered with a major Argentinian business group that has committed $200 million in funding to take the project through development and into production. Meanwhile, Blue Sky retains full ownership of additional areas within the district, offering significant future upside.

“Uranium is hot,” Cacos said. “The world needs more uranium. Nuclear energy is a way of producing efficient, clean and reliable baseload electricity, and that’s what we aim to help provide.”

Cacos highlighted that Argentina is becoming increasingly business-friendly under its latest administration, with billions of dollars now flowing into the country’s resource sector. With ongoing drilling to expand and solidify its resource base, and with more news expected throughout the year, 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for Blue Sky Uranium.

      <itunes:summary>Blue Sky Uranium Corp CEO Niko Cacos joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company&apos;s exciting developments in Argentina as global interest in uranium surges. Cacos explained that Blue Sky Uranium is advancing a unique and extensive uranium district in Argentina, which spans over 145km and includes a deposit of more than 70 million pounds of uranium.

The company is currently partnered with a major Argentinian business group that has committed $200 million in funding to take the project through development and into production. Meanwhile, Blue Sky retains full ownership of additional areas within the district, offering significant future upside.

“Uranium is hot,” Cacos said. “The world needs more uranium. Nuclear energy is a way of producing efficient, clean and reliable baseload electricity, and that’s what we aim to help provide.”

Cacos highlighted that Argentina is becoming increasingly business-friendly under its latest administration, with billions of dollars now flowing into the country’s resource sector. With ongoing drilling to expand and solidify its resource base, and with more news expected throughout the year, 2026 is shaping up to be a pivotal year for Blue Sky Uranium.

      <title>$40M and No Debt: Inside Globex’s Royalty Model</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Globex Mining President and COO David Christie joined Steve Darling from Proactive from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s business model and the catalysts ahead in 2026.

Christie described Globex as a “royalty creator”, noting that the company generates value by acquiring mineral properties, developing them to a certain stage, and then bringing in partners — creating long-term revenue streams through royalties and advance payments. He emphasized the company’s lean, debt-free structure, revealing it holds over $40 million in cash and securities. Christie stated, “We don't issue equity… That continues to grow every day with this market.”

As of now, Globex holds 269 mineral assets, including 107 royalties, with key operations centered in Quebec and Ontario, and additional assets in New Brunswick, the US, Germany, and Portugal. Many projects are actively being drilled by partners — including over 300,000 metres of drilling across royalty-linked properties from groups like Radisson and Current.

Looking ahead to 2026, Christie highlighted upcoming feasibility results from Cerrado Gold's Mount Sorcier project, where Globex expects to earn $5–$8 million annually from royalties.
Watch the full interview for more insights into how Globex is building value across its extensive portfolio.

      <title>Nicola Mining plans Nasdaq uplisting in 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nicola Mining Inc CEO Peter Espig joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s major developments in 2026, including plans to uplist to Nasdaq, the reopening of a silver mine, and the commencement of a gold project. 

Espig highlighted that the company is already producing gold and silver, and holds what he described as “the highest grade major copper mine in history in North America.”
During the interview, Espig shared that the company currently has approximately $5 million in cash and an additional $5.5 million in securities. 

Nicola Mining is also preparing to increase its milling capacity from 200 to 500 tonnes and is actively purchasing equipment to support bulk sampling activities across multiple projects, including the Dominion project. He emphasized that Nicola Mining is the only mill in British Columbia permitted to process material from anywhere in the province.

Espig stated, “We're reopening a silver mine, and we're opening a gold project. Then there’s other things in the pipeline.” He underscored a conservative financial approach rooted in his investment banking background, noting the company's focus on cash flow stability amid sector-wide optimism.

He also pointed to key commodity exposure in uranium, copper, gold, and silver, saying that 2026 is expected to bring a “hockey stick of revenue,” driven by strategic production expansions and exploration work.

      <title>1911 Gold eyes 2027 restart at Manitoba Mine</title>
      <description><![CDATA[1911 Gold Corporation CEO Shaun Heinrichs joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company's progress at its fully permitted, past-producing project in Manitoba.

In the interview, Heinrichs outlined how 1911 Gold is preparing for a targeted production restart in 2027. The company is actively rehabbing its underground infrastructure, including escape ways, power centers, and water removal systems — critical steps in readiness for future operations. “We’re tightening up a lot of the drill spacing on the old 43-101 resource... so we can expand the actual mine life itself,” Heinrichs said.

Development work is ongoing alongside aggressive drilling efforts, with over 25,000 metres completed across three newly identified targets within the mine lease area. Heinrichs noted the company sees strong potential to expand its 1.1 million ounce resource both laterally and at depth.

Beyond the main asset, the company is also exploring satellite opportunities across its extensive land package, including a southeastern target with an existing 337,000-ounce resource grading 8 grams per tonne. Plans are underway to grow this resource and assess its future production potential.

Heinrichs highlighted the broader economic impact of the project, stating it could directly employ over 350 people and generate significant revenues for Manitoba. “We’ve got to execute our plan. And I think it's going to have a big benefit for the province and of course, for the country,” he said.
Watch the full interview to hear more about 1911 Gold’s vision for the future.

      <title>Indigenous Royalties: Nations Royalty&apos;s Unique Edge</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nations Royalty Corp Chief Investment Officer Derrick Pattenden joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company's unique positioning as the first and largest majority Indigenous-owned publicly traded royalty company in Canada.

Pattenden, who recently stepped into the CEO role after serving as Chief Investment Officer, explained the company’s mission: pooling Indigenous-owned royalty assets to unlock greater value. “We believe the Indigenous peoples of Canada are very well served to create a mining royalty company of their own,” he said, highlighting how these groups can secure high-quality royalty interests in ways others cannot.

The company's model is based on consolidating royalties that Indigenous groups currently hold in isolation. By pooling them, Nations Royalty believes these assets could trade at multiples of their standalone value. Pattenden emphasized that Indigenous communities have a unique advantage due to their proximity to resource development and involvement in key agreements related to environmental, legal, and financial terms—including royalties.

Looking ahead to 2026, Pattenden outlined two major catalysts: progress on the Seabridge Gold KSM project, where Nations Royalty holds EBAY payments, and the announcement of a new Indigenous partnership that would launch the pooling initiative. He also noted the company’s efforts to support Indigenous groups in negotiating fair royalty agreements.

Looking ahead to 2026, Pattenden outlined two major catalysts: progress on the Seabridge Gold KSM project, where Nations Royalty holds EBAY payments, and the announcement of a new Indigenous partnership that would launch the pooling initiative. He also noted the company’s efforts to support Indigenous groups in negotiating fair royalty agreements.

      <itunes:subtitle>Nations Royalty Corp Chief Investment Officer Derrick Pattenden joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company&apos;s unique positioning as the first and largest majority Indigenous-owned publicly traded royalty company in Canada.

Pattenden, who recently stepped into the CEO role after serving as Chief Investment Officer, explained the company’s mission: pooling Indigenous-owned royalty assets to unlock greater value. “We believe the Indigenous peoples of Canada are very well served to create a mining royalty company of their own,” he said, highlighting how these groups can secure high-quality royalty interests in ways others cannot.

The company&apos;s model is based on consolidating royalties that Indigenous groups currently hold in isolation. By pooling them, Nations Royalty believes these assets could trade at multiples of their standalone value. Pattenden emphasized that Indigenous communities have a unique advantage due to their proximity to resource development and involvement in key agreements related to environmental, legal, and financial terms—including royalties.

      <title>Uranium drilling ramps up at CanAlaska’s Pike Zone</title>
      <description><![CDATA[CanAlaska Uranium CEO Cory Belyk joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s latest developments at the West McArthur project, located in the eastern Athabasca Basin. Belyk highlighted that the company currently has three drill rigs operating, focused on advancing the high-grade Pike Zone discovery.
“We’re drilling very high-grade mineralization, ultra-high grades, as high as 85% last year,” said Belyk, noting the Pike Zone lies just 15km west of the McArthur River mine. The company has outlined plans for a robust 8 to 10-month drilling program in 2026, backed by a $15 million exploration budget — a 20% increase year-over-year.

With nearly 40 million dollars in the treasury, CanAlaska is fully funded for 2026 and beyond. Belyk credited strong backers and investor interest, underpinned by rising uranium prices and the global momentum in nuclear energy investment.

CanAlaska holds an extensive land position of approximately 500,000 hectares, with the West McArthur joint venture — in which the company holds an 89% interest — being a key focus area. Belyk expressed optimism about expanding the Pike Zone, stating: “We’ve got mineralization connecting it like a string. Now we’ve got to go and find that next pearl.”

The discussion also touched on broader sector dynamics, with Belyk acknowledging increased investor attention in uranium due to recent price surges, calling it a “real change” in capital availability across the industry.

      <title>Ameriwest Eyes High-Grade Copper-Gold in Oregon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ameriwest Critical Metals CEO David Watkinson talked with Proactive about the company’s recent strategic shift into a broader critical metals portfolio, highlighting the acquisition of a high-grade copper, gold, and silver project in Oregon. Watkinson noted that the property, known as the Borate project, is one he worked on in the 1990s while at Plexus Resources, a company that later helped form Kinross Gold.

He explained that the asset is a breccia pipe deposit with a high-grade copper shell and potentially minable lower-grade interior. “Some of the assays are, you know, as much as 6 or 8% copper,” Watkinson stated. He added that the ore body’s vertical cigar-shaped geometry could be suitable for underground development and offers significant exploration upside, including the potential for additional breccia pipes or a porphyry system at depth.

Watkinson also discussed Ameriwest’s two lithium properties, including one being optioned to Pure Energy Metals—whose key backer is SLB (formerly Schlumberger)—and a rare earths project in northern British Columbia. While those assets remain part of the company’s diversified portfolio, Watkinson confirmed that fast-tracking permitting on the Borate project will be the primary focus in 2026, capitalizing on U.S. government incentives for domestic critical minerals development.

      <title>Standard Uranium sets sights on 3 key drill projects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium CEO Jon Bey joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s upcoming exploration plans and overall outlook within the uranium sector.

Speaking from the OTC Markets Group booth, Bey reflected on the strong investor turnout at recent events, citing “over 10,000 investors over two days” as a sign of growing momentum in the resource space.

He outlined the company’s successful pivot in 2023 toward a project generator model, enabling multiple assets to advance with external funding. “We have a great portfolio of 13 projects,” Bey noted, explaining how bringing in partners has allowed Standard Uranium to unlock value across its portfolio while preserving capital for its flagship asset.

That flagship, the Davidson River Project, is now back in focus, with drilling scheduled to begin in May 2026. “We'll be there towards the middle to end of May. We'll start a program probably 7 to 10,000 metres,” said Bey. This marks the first time the asset has been drilled since 2022.

In addition, Bey confirmed drilling is set to commence shortly at the Corvo Project, with 3,000 metres of drilling planned over a six-week program, followed by work on the Rochas Project, targeting 2,500 metres.

Discussing uranium market dynamics, Bey expressed confidence in the commodity's long-term pricing trends: “We’re seeing the price of uranium… around $88 on Friday,” adding that the “slow steady movement” is ideal for sustainability.

Bey concluded by emphasizing the investment case: “We’ve got three drill programs fully funded happening in the next six months,” positioning Standard Uranium for a potential discovery-driven value uplift.

      <title>Global travel surge drives strong performance for TRIP ETF</title>
      <description><![CDATA[U.S. Global Investors CEO Frank Holmes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the continued strength in global tourism and how this momentum is being reflected in the performance of the company’s TRIP ETF. Despite persistent negative headlines around the global economy and geopolitical uncertainty, Holmes emphasized that real-world travel demand tells a very different story.

He pointed to international tourist arrivals reaching approximately 1.52 billion over the past year, with major travel destinations around the world continuing to experience steady growth. According to Holmes, these figures underscore a global appetite for travel that remains resilient and robust. “The world is not afraid of a global event happening or you wouldn’t have such incredible travel,” he said.

Cruising was highlighted as a particularly strong segment, with Holmes noting that an estimated 22 million Americans are expected to take a cruise this year alone. He added that cruising’s affordability and convenience—especially for European itineraries—has made it increasingly attractive to travelers seeking value and simplicity.

Holmes also identified Ryanair as a standout performer within the European airline sector, benefiting from strong passenger demand and lower fuel costs. In the U.S., he pointed to a rebound in business travel as another positive indicator for the industry, noting that major carriers such as American Airlines are working to enhance their business-class offerings to better compete with peers.

Addressing industry dynamics, Holmes emphasized that structural constraints are contributing to pricing power across the sector. “There’s not enough airports, not enough places to dock and land and take off… so they have pricing power,” he said, adding that limited infrastructure capacity continues to support strong margins for travel and tourism operators.

Overall, Holmes said these trends reinforce the investment thesis behind the TRIP ETF, which is positioned to capture sustained growth across airlines, cruise operators, and broader global tourism activity.

Addressing industry dynamics, Holmes emphasized that structural constraints are contributing to pricing power across the sector. “There’s not enough airports, not enough places to dock and land and take off… so they have pricing power,” he said, adding that limited infrastructure capacity continues to support strong margins for travel and tourism operators.

Overall, Holmes said these trends reinforce the investment thesis behind the TRIP ETF, which is positioned to capture sustained growth across airlines, cruise operators, and broader global tourism activity.

      <itunes:subtitle>U.S. Global Investors CEO Frank Holmes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the continued strength in global tourism and how this momentum is being reflected in the performance of the company’s TRIP ETF. Despite persistent negative headlines around the global economy and geopolitical uncertainty, Holmes emphasized that real-world travel demand tells a very different story.

He pointed to international tourist arrivals reaching approximately 1.52 billion over the past year, with major travel destinations around the world continuing to experience steady growth. According to Holmes, these figures underscore a global appetite for travel that remains resilient and robust. “The world is not afraid of a global event happening or you wouldn’t have such incredible travel,” he said.

Cruising was highlighted as a particularly strong segment, with Holmes noting that an estimated 22 million Americans are expected to take a cruise this year alone. He added that cruising’s affordability and convenience—especially for European itineraries—has made it increasingly attractive to travelers seeking value and simplicity.

Holmes also identified Ryanair as a standout performer within the European airline sector, benefiting from strong passenger demand and lower fuel costs. In the U.S., he pointed to a rebound in business travel as another positive indicator for the industry, noting that major carriers such as American Airlines are working to enhance their business-class offerings to better compete with peers.

      <title>White Gold Corp eyes major Yukon expansion</title>
      <description><![CDATA[White Gold Corp CEO David D’Onofrio joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s significant growth plans, as momentum builds in the Yukon’s historic Klondike district.

D'Onofrio outlined how White Gold has built on its strong foundation, anchored by a 3-million-ounce high-grade gold resource—the largest in the Yukon. He emphasized, “We are fully funded for the largest exploration program in our company's history,” pointing to a transformative period ahead as the company pushes forward with both deposit expansion and new target exploration.

The exploration strategy follows a proven phased approach developed by prospector Sean Ryan, combining geochemistry, geophysics, and staged drilling. The method has led to major discoveries and continues to drive value, with a new focus on an ultra-high-grade core, highlighted by over 1.1 million ounces at nearly 3 g/t.

D'Onofrio also discussed a potential spinout to unlock value from non-gold metals identified in the district, including copper, tungsten, and molybdenum—drawing comparisons to nearby Western Copper and Gold.
Strong infrastructure support from the Yukon and Canadian federal governments under the Resource Gateway Program, and strategic positioning near a major development by Newmont and Agnico, further reinforce White Gold’s unique opportunity in one of Canada’s most underexplored yet prospective gold camps.

      <title>Sirios to expand G2 deposit, targets major drilling</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Sirios Resources Founder and CEO Dominique Doucet joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s strategic transformation and growth plans for its G2 gold deposit in Quebec.

Doucet, who founded Sirios Resources in 1994, reflected on decades of exploration in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Northern Quebec. The company’s flagship G2 deposit, discovered through grassroots exploration, now holds close to 3 million ounces of gold.

He described the upcoming merger as the “second life” of the company, a transition that brings in notable figures like mining financier Sean Roosen and engineer Jean-Philippe Phoenix. Doucet confirmed that Phoenix will take over as CEO following the transaction's expected close in two months, while he will remain actively involved as Executive Chairman and Head of Exploration.

Looking ahead, the company plans to significantly increase drilling efforts to expand the G2 resource, aiming for a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) by Q1 2027. “We need tens and tens and few tens of thousand meter of additional drilling,” said Doucet, highlighting the scale of ambition.

Sirios is positioning itself to move from exploration to development with a strengthened leadership team and targeted financing strategies to support large-scale drilling and technical studies.

      <title>Gold drilling results boost Quimbaya in Colombia</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quimbaya Gold Inc CEO Alexandre Boivin joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company's recent drilling results at its flagship Tommy project in Segovia, Colombia. The 24,000-hectare asset is strategically located near established producers such as Aris Mining, highlighting its prospective positioning within a well-known gold district.

Boivin shared early results from the initial 5,000-metre drill campaign, noting encouraging grades including widths up to one metre and gold grades reaching 9.8 grams per ton. “What I like is the orientation and the structure of the Aris veins are exactly the same on our asset,” he said, drawing comparisons to nearby high-grade operations. With up to 2.2 kilometres of strike already confirmed, Boivin highlighted the potential for multi-million ounce discovery.

Looking ahead, the company plans to resume drilling in Q2 2026 after completing geophysical work. Boivin confirmed the company is well-funded, with $13 million in the bank to cover exploration plans for the year. In addition to the Tommy vein system, Quimbaya is also preparing to test a copper-moly-gold porphyry system identified through geophysics and soil sampling.

Boivin reaffirmed his confidence in the jurisdiction, calling Colombia “the best investment of my life,” and pointing to Quimbaya's rare position as one of the only pre-discovery plays remaining in the region.

      <title>Metallic Minerals CEO on Copper, Silver, Royalties</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Metallic Minerals Corp CEO Greg Johnson joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s ongoing momentum as it advances multiple exploration and royalty projects across North America. Johnson highlighted that after years of bear market conditions, the junior mining sector is finally seeing a generational shift — and Metallic Minerals is positioned to benefit.

Johnson outlined a busy 2026, building on a significant 2025. “It’s already over a billion pounds of copper, 17 million ounces of silver,” he said, referring to the La Plata project in Colorado, which also includes newly added platinum, palladium and gold ounces. The project is supported by Newmont, which funded recent drilling.

In Yukon, the company’s Keno Silver project is moving forward after publishing its first resource of 18 million ounces in 2024. With Hecla Mining ramping up to commercial production next door, Metallic Minerals aims to build on that resource through 2026.

Importantly, Johnson also highlighted a third income stream — a royalty portfolio in the Yukon — that produced CAD $650,000 worth of gold in 2025. “At $6,500 Canadian gold... it’s an amazing business,” he said. The company expects a record year in 2026 from expanding royalty operations.

Looking ahead, Johnson confirmed exploration drilling at Keno Silver will begin in late spring or early summer, followed by work at La Plata later in the year. The company also plans to test new porphyry targets in partnership with Newmont.

Johnson outlined a busy 2026, building on a significant 2025. “It’s already over a billion pounds of copper, 17 million ounces of silver,” he said, referring to the La Plata project in Colorado, which also includes newly added platinum, palladium and gold ounces. The project is supported by Newmont, which funded recent drilling.

In Yukon, the company’s Keno Silver project is moving forward after publishing its first resource of 18 million ounces in 2024. With Hecla Mining ramping up to commercial production next door, Metallic Minerals aims to build on that resource through 2026.

Importantly, Johnson also highlighted a third income stream — a royalty portfolio in the Yukon — that produced CAD $650,000 worth of gold in 2025. “At $6,500 Canadian gold... it’s an amazing business,” he said. The company expects a record year in 2026 from expanding royalty operations.

Looking ahead, Johnson confirmed exploration drilling at Keno Silver will begin in late spring or early summer, followed by work at La Plata later in the year. The company also plans to test new porphyry targets in partnership with Newmont.

      <title>Mayfair Gold’s fast-track path to gold production</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Mayfair Gold Corp CEO Nicholas Campbell joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s path toward becoming a new Canadian gold producer.

Campbell, who took over as CEO about a year ago, highlighted Mayfair’s 4.3-million-ounce resource in Timmins, Ontario, and the clear plan now in place to transition that into production. A key focus has been navigating the permitting process strategically to avoid federal delays. “If you're over 5,000 tonnes per day, you're talking about being ten-plus years out from being able to start production,” Campbell said, emphasizing Mayfair’s provincial route aimed at permitting within two years and production by 2030.

The company recently released its pre-feasibility study and is working through detailed engineering and community engagement, including work with First Nations. On the investor front, Mayfair will uplist to the NYSE American with ticker “MINY” and is preparing to release high-grade drill results in early February.

Campbell also highlighted exploration upside, particularly on Mayfair’s largely unexplored southern block along the Porcupine-Destor Fault, a prolific structure in the Timmins camp.
This strategic combination of near-term development, high-grade drilling, and blue-sky exploration sets Mayfair up for a catalyst-rich 2026.

      <title>Koby Kushner on New Spodumene Discovery in Ontario</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Libra Energy Materials CEO Koby Kushner joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s unconventional strategy and rapid progress in lithium exploration.
Kushner shared that the company was founded in 2023 during a downturn in the lithium market, but instead of pulling back, Libra doubled down on grassroots exploration. “We had no choice but to make new lithium discoveries,” he said, noting that Libra achieved more discoveries per dollar raised than most peers.

A major milestone was winning Discovery of the Year for identifying a new spodumene camp in Ontario. The company also secured a $33 million exploration funding deal with Bill Gates–backed KoBold Metals. “To my knowledge, we’re one of only two public companies with a deal in place with them,” Kushner added.

To fuel its counter-cyclical strategy, Libra went public in 2025 and rapidly grew its portfolio from 6 to 37 lithium projects—while maintaining less than 10% dilution. The company has since expanded into Brazil and doubled down in Quebec.

Now, with lithium prices rebounding, Kushner said 2026 will mark Libra’s first drill program on a 100%-owned asset. He emphasized the untapped potential in grassroots lithium exploration, contrasting it with maturing copper discovery trends.
Watch the full interview to hear why Kushner believes lithium still holds major upside.

      <title>Cerrado Gold: Cash-flowing producer with growth ahead</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cerrado Gold Vice President of Corporate Development David Ball joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s unique position as a junior miner generating strong cash flow from current production in Argentina.

Ball explained that Cerrado Gold has a production asset delivering around 50,000 ounces of gold annually at its Minera Don Nicolás operation. “We’ll continue to see strong cash flow coming out of that asset in the near term,” he said. The company is also advancing its Las Calandrias heap leach project and is investing heavily in exploration with 50,000 metres of drilling planned this year.

That internal cash flow is a critical part of the company’s strategy, as it helps to minimize dilution for shareholders while supporting development of its other assets. The next major project in the pipeline is the Lagos do Norte polymetallic project in Portugal. 
This VMS-style deposit hosts zinc, lead, copper, silver, and gold, with a significant portion of value from precious metals. Cerrado is currently updating the feasibility study and progressing through the permitting process, aiming to reach a construction decision soon.

Ball emphasized that the company’s business model — building and operating mines while maintaining a disciplined approach to capital — allows Cerrado to weather down markets and continue adding value. “We want to take that experience of operations and building projects and generate more value for shareholders,” he said.

      <title>Erdene Resource hits first Gold &amp; $30M cash flow</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Erdene Resource Development Corporation CEO Peter Akerley joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s significant milestone of achieving first gold production and entering the startup cash flow phase.

Akerley highlighted that after over two decades of work, reaching this point has delivered a strong sense of achievement for the team, especially with the company now generating substantial early cash flow. "We generated about 30 million US in cash flow in that startup phase," Akerley said, referring to the initial months of production at the Bayan Khundii deposit in Mongolia.

Strategically, the production success enables Erdene to unlock the broader potential of what Akerley calls a "great gold district." Exploration efforts are already underway with expansion potential west of the current pit and as far as 2.5km north, where a high-grade surface discovery has been made.

Akerley emphasized the company’s community-first approach, operating in a low-population, nomadic region of Mongolia. The company’s partnership with Mongolian Mining Corporation, a 50/50 joint venture, has strengthened relationships with both government and local stakeholders, ensuring a respectful and sustainable approach to development.

Looking ahead, Akerley pointed to ongoing drilling at the Dark Horse prospect, a PEA for the My Molybdenum project, and significant infrastructure developments, including access to roads and power to support expanded operations.

      <title>New VP targets major expansion at Philadelphia Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arizona Gold and Silver VP of Exploration Lex Lambeck joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about his recent appointment and the promising potential of the company's flagship Philadelphia project in Arizona.

Lambeck, a seasoned geologist with a strong track record—including his leadership role at MAG Silver prior to its $2.1 billion acquisition by Pan American Silver—discussed what drew him to Arizona Gold & Silver. He emphasized the significant exploration upside and described the current stage of the project as "just scratched the surface."

“What really attracted me to the project was the potential for it. We think it's a really big system,” Lambeck stated, referencing recent drill results from holes 156 to 158, which show the system entering the boiling zone—an encouraging indicator for mineralization.
Lambeck also highlighted upcoming plans to pursue drilling at the Red Hills area, pending permit approval. 
This zone could represent the fluid system’s core, offering a transformative target for the company. With guidance from former VP Greg Hahn, Lambeck intends to balance continuity with fresh geological insights.

He also reflected on the opportunity of working in a smaller company with big ambition: “That's what gets you out of bed… working with Mike and really drive the direction of the company.”

      <title>Athena Gold targets major Red Lake discovery</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Athena Gold Corp CEO Koby Kushner joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about about the company’s strategic positioning for a potential grassroots gold discovery at its flagship Laird Lake project in Red Lake, Ontario.
During the interview, Kushner explained that Athena recently monetized its non-core Nevada asset, Excelsior Springs, while retaining significant upside. That move, combined with an oversubscribed $3.5 million financing, has positioned the company with nearly $8 million in cash and marketable securities.

“Athena is a gold exploration company, and we're aiming to make the next grassroots gold discovery in Red Lake, Ontario,” Kushner said.

For over a year, Athena has been conducting groundwork at Laird Lake, including geophysical interpretation and collecting over 2,000 surface samples. A key breakthrough came with a reinterpretation of the geology — revealing the presence of Balmer rocks, a highly prospective formation historically missed due to incorrect mapping. This includes a 10km strike length rich in visible gold, with surface samples as high as 373 g/t gold.

The upcoming drill program, slated to begin by the end of Q1 2026, will test multiple high-priority targets including the Bounty anomaly, the Rigby showing, and geophysical conductors G1 to G6. Athena plans to drill approximately 5,000 metres.
The project is further bolstered by its proximity to major players like Evolution Mining, Kinross, and West Red Lake Gold, which recently restarted commercial production just 10km away — reinforcing the region’s reputation as “elephant country.”

      <title>Silver Surge: Tier One Silver restarts drilling</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tier One Silver Corp CEO Peter Dembicki joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about how the company is capitalizing on improving silver prices by restarting exploration at its Curibaya project in southern Peru.

In the interview, Dembicki noted the company is launching its second-ever drill program at the project after navigating several years of challenging market conditions. Despite limited historical exploration, Curibaya has shown highly promising indicators. Dembicki explained that previous drill results were shallow but indicated significant potential, prompting a more targeted approach in the upcoming program.

“We're surrounded by some of the largest copper and silver producers in the world in southern Peru… Ours are still intact,” he said, discussing the property's preserved precious metals window.

The next drilling campaign is expected to begin within 10–12 days of the interview and extend over a three-month period. Encouraging early results could see the company extend the program. Dembicki stressed that this renewed activity marks a turning point for Tier One Silver, saying, “Now we're back, we're active, we're drilling again.”

The company is particularly encouraged by the presence of high-grade silver and gold, with Dembicki citing results such as “eight kilo plus silver, four grams plus gold,” discovered through surface work and testing.

This renewed focus and market momentum present a timely opportunity for Tier One Silver to generate meaningful news flow and unlock shareholder value in 2026.

      <title>Coppernico Metals eyes major Copper discovery</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s progress toward what could become a major copper discovery in Peru.

Bebek outlined how Coppernico has transitioned from years of preparatory work into an active drilling phase, with exploration resuming in April. He explained that the company will test four out of 17 major targets over an 18-month campaign, with 50 to 60 planned drill holes. These targets are considered analogs to some of the world's most significant copper deposits, including Las Bambas.

“This is an analog to Las Bambas,” Bebek noted, “and we’re seeing tens of meters of 1% or 100 to 200m of half a percent or better copper right on surface.” He added that these trenching results represent some of the best surface sampling the company has achieved to date.

The company has overcome significant social and geopolitical challenges over the past nine years, and Bebek emphasized its strong relationship with local communities. Coppernico has created over 100 jobs in the last year and introduced agricultural initiatives to improve health and economic outcomes in the Andes.

As the permitting process progresses smoothly, Coppernico now finds itself at what Bebek described as “day one” of the discovery phase. With major shareholders like Teck and Newmont on board since the company went public, the outlook is promising for high-impact copper exploration in a supply-constrained global market.

      <title>Gold discovery momentum: Relevant Gold CEO update</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Relevant Gold Corp CEO Rob Bergmann joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s significant progress over the past year as it continues to advance its gold exploration in Wyoming. Bergmann highlighted the successful first drill program at the Apex target at Bradley Peak, where the company completed 5,100 metres across 12 holes. Every hole intersected anomalous gold mineralization, confirming the presence of a fertile orogenic system.

“We’ve gone from concept phase to now multi-camp, proven orogenic systems across a 200-kilometre belt,” Bergmann said. He explained how the team is using structural, geochemical and geophysical data to refine its targeting and identify high-potential zones for follow-up drilling.

Looking ahead, Relevant Gold plans to scale up with a more aggressive drill campaign in 2026, aiming for a minimum of 20,000 metres. The company has already identified 17 district-scale, high-grade targets, four of which have been drilled with strong system confirmation. Backed by strategic investors like Kinross and Bollinger, the company is well-capitalized to pursue its exploration goals.

Bergmann also commented on the positive sentiment at VRIC 2026, noting that the energy across the sector is building.

      <title>High-Grade Gold drives Nevada King&apos;s 2026 strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nevada King Gold Corp CEO John Sclodnick  joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s progress and strategy for its flagship Atlanta Gold Mine project in Nevada.

Sclodnick highlighted why he joined Nevada King, pointing to its high-grade oxide system and ideal location: “We got 1.1g per ton resource… there's nothing else like it really in Nevada or really in the U.S.” The Atlanta project, a past-producing mine, has already delivered promising results, with a 1.1 million ounce resource.

In 2026, the company is moving beyond the core Atlanta Resource Zone to focus on potential satellite deposits along the caldera margin. Nevada King is advancing its Sulfur Park target toward a potential resource estimate and is simultaneously exploring high-priority areas like Western Rim and Atlanta South. These newer zones, according to Sclodnick, “could potentially dwarf Atlanta” in scale.

He noted strong institutional and corporate interest in the project due to its jurisdictional advantages and gold grades. The company is also benefiting from substantial local and federal support, working with a proactive BLM office and leveraging infrastructure in the region.
Nevada King is fully funded for its Phase 4 program and poised for another active year of exploration and growth.

      <title>New Age Metals CEO on Ring of Fire strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[New Age Minerals Chairman and CEO Harry Barr joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company broad portfolio and its positioning for what he describes as a revitalized junior mining cycle.

Barr explained that his personal investment portfolio, spanning 60 junior mining companies, has significantly recovered since mid-2023 — a signal, he believes, of a broader turnaround in the sector. “Some of them were up 1,020% by June, July,” he said, noting a portfolio rebound from under $500,000 to $6 million in less than a year.

New Age Metals itself is advancing across five strategic divisions, with activity ranging from lithium exploration in Manitoba — backed by $11 million in funding from a major player — to gold and critical metals in the Kenora mining district. Barr also pointed to major developments in the Ring of Fire region, where he said road access appears imminent, creating significant upside for New Age Metals' holdings in the area.

He highlighted a flagship palladium project near Sudbury, which Barr described as the “largest undeveloped palladium project in North America,” with over 4 million ounces identified and significant unexplored potential along a 16km strike.

Barr also touched on the company’s presence in Newfoundland, with a focus on gold and antimony, and noted that New Age Metals holds a 12% stake in Metals West, which owns what he claimed is the largest iron project in North America.

Summing up, Barr said, “It’s never been more exciting — I don’t even sleep anymore,” underlining his bullish view on the future for New Age Metals and the broader critical metals space.

      <title>Prospect Ridge: 2026 drill plans for Camelot &amp; Castle</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Prospect Ridge Resources President and CEO Len Brownlie joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s exploration outlook for 2026 and key developments across its portfolio of projects in northwest British Columbia. Brownlie confirmed the company completed a short drill program at its Camelot project in fall 2025, totaling 2,000 metres, and said the initial results are encouraging, with one hole already announced.

The company has five projects in total, including Camelot, Castle, and Excalibur. According to Brownlie, both Camelot and Excalibur are road-accessible, making them more economical to drill. Castle, although helicopter-access only, has shown significant potential. “We’re getting soil samples up to 6.8 grams per tonne gold, which is pretty darn high,” said Brownlie, noting that the project may be analogous to the Cadia East gold-copper porphyry system in New South Wales, Australia.

Looking ahead to 2026, Prospect Ridge plans to return to Camelot for further drilling, commence drilling at Excalibur, and potentially drill Castle. With increasing interest in gold and a rise in market attendance—highlighted by over 10,000 attendees at this year's conference—Brownlie believes momentum is building. He added, “Now is the year we discover… we’re really focused on a discovery.”

      <title>Eagle Plains targets drilling at George Lake in 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Eagle Plains Resources President and CEO Chuck Downie  joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company talked with Proactive about the company’s exploration strategy and key priorities heading into 2026.
Downie outlined a strong year ahead for Eagle Plains, which plans to be involved in up to $14 million in exploration spending, with around $2.5 million self-funded and the remainder through partner-funded drilling. This includes work at the George Lake zinc project, which boasts a historic resource and is benefiting from modern modeling and airborne data obtained through Saskatchewan government programs.

He highlighted the advantages of operating in Saskatchewan, including government-backed geoscience data and exploration incentives, noting, “If we spent $800,000 on a drill program, we’ll get $150,000 back from the government, which is like enough for another hole.”

Eagle Plains is a project generator with around 40 projects in Saskatchewan, plus dozens more in British Columbia and the Yukon. The company has focused in recent years on copper-gold projects in BC, uranium in Saskatchewan, and gold across the region.
Additionally, Downie revealed that the Dufferin uranium project is scheduled for drilling within weeks, with other partner-funded exploration likely to follow.

      <itunes:summary>Eagle Plains Resources President and CEO Chuck Downie  joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company talked with Proactive about the company’s exploration strategy and key priorities heading into 2026.
Downie outlined a strong year ahead for Eagle Plains, which plans to be involved in up to $14 million in exploration spending, with around $2.5 million self-funded and the remainder through partner-funded drilling. This includes work at the George Lake zinc project, which boasts a historic resource and is benefiting from modern modeling and airborne data obtained through Saskatchewan government programs.

He highlighted the advantages of operating in Saskatchewan, including government-backed geoscience data and exploration incentives, noting, “If we spent $800,000 on a drill program, we’ll get $150,000 back from the government, which is like enough for another hole.”

Eagle Plains is a project generator with around 40 projects in Saskatchewan, plus dozens more in British Columbia and the Yukon. The company has focused in recent years on copper-gold projects in BC, uranium in Saskatchewan, and gold across the region.
Additionally, Downie revealed that the Dufferin uranium project is scheduled for drilling within weeks, with other partner-funded exploration likely to follow.

      <title>Chris King on OTC Markets growth and ID Market</title>
      <description><![CDATA[OTC Markets Group SVP Americas Business Development Chris King joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the company’s performance and initiatives over the past year during the Vancouver conference.

King explained that over 70% of the 190+ exhibiting companies at the event are already clients of OTC Markets’ premium platforms, and many conversations focused on how to better leverage those services for visibility and compliance. 
A notable milestone in 2025 was the launch of the OTC ID Market, which now supports over 1,300 securities. This new market was introduced following SEC rule changes requiring enhanced oversight for securities quotation, enabling companies to offer baseline disclosure without the full regulatory burden of SEC filings. “More than 480 companies joined our premium markets this year,” King said, highlighting strong momentum. He also noted that international securities, particularly Canadian ones, were a key driver of the group’s 47% increase in trading volume across its platforms.

King discussed the growing demand from U.S. investors seeking opportunities beyond Nasdaq-listed stocks, with many turning to the OTC Markets to trade international securities in USD. The recently released OTCQX Best 50 list includes 24 Canadian-listed companies, a reflection of the increasing appetite for resource and multinational firms among U.S. investors.

      <title>Gunnison Copper COO on 2026 Copper Production Goals</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Gunnison Copper COO Robert Winton joined Steve Darling from the Vancouver Resources Investment Conference to share news about the conpaany’s recent milestones, ongoing production, and its ambitious outlook for 2026. The company, a pure-play copper producer based in southeast Arizona, operates two key projects—its namesake Gunnison project, which is at the PE (pre-feasibility) level, and the Johnson Camp Mine, where it has recently commenced production.

Winton highlighted the company’s strategic partnership with Newton, the technology division of Rio Tinto, to produce pure copper directly feeding into the U.S. supply chain. He also discussed a unique collaboration with Amazon Web Services, through which Gunnison’s copper is being utilized in the infrastructure of future data centers. “We're breaking the trends with respect to copper technologies,” Winton said.

The company is aiming for a production rate of two million pounds per month, with operations running both oxide and new Tom leach systems. Additionally, an updated Resource and Project Assessment (RPA) is expected within weeks, marking another milestone for the business.
In a strong start to the year, Gunnison Copper has reduced its secured debt, freeing up capital to reinvest into operations—setting up what Winton describes as a “really big 2026” for the company and its investors.

      <title>New Era Energy partners with Primary Digital to develop gigawatt-scale Texas data center</title>
      <description><![CDATA[New Era Energy & Digital CEO Will Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s strategy to become a leading power provider for hyperscale data centers, highlighting a differentiated approach centered on natural gas and behind-the-meter power generation.

Gray discussed the company’s recent partnership with Primary Digital Infrastructure, describing it as a “major domino” in New Era’s phased rollout plan to deliver up to one gigawatt of power capacity. Speaking from the PTC26 conference in Hawaii, he said the partnership marked an important milestone and provided an opportunity to showcase the company’s unique power-first strategy to a global audience of digital infrastructure leaders.

According to Gray, New Era’s model avoids reliance on constrained public power grids by co-locating power generation directly alongside data center facilities. “We are not accessing the grid… we have a power plant that’s co-located next to our power facility,” he said, noting that this approach offers both environmental and logistical advantages, including improved efficiency, reliability, and speed to market.

Gray emphasized the strategic value of partnering with Primary Digital Infrastructure, citing the firm’s track record in developing data centers for industry leaders such as Digital Realty and CyrusOne. Under the partnership, New Era will focus on its core strength in power generation and delivery, while Primary will lead data center design, construction, and development.

Addressing capital and financing considerations, Gray said the company intends to limit shareholder dilution by pursuing project-level financing rather than issuing equity at the parent company level. He confirmed that New Era has filed an S-3 shelf registration to maintain financial flexibility but stressed that it represents just one component of a broader capital strategy.

Gray concluded by reiterating that the company remains on track to secure a definitive lease agreement by the end of the first quarter. He emphasized that meaningful cash flow will be driven by executed leases rather than announcements, underscoring New Era’s focus on disciplined execution and long-term value creation.

      <title>Silver Range navigates uneven junior mining financing market</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Silver Range Resources CEO Mike Power joined Steve Darling to discuss the current state of the junior mining financing market and how the company is positioning itself amid what he described as a slow but gradually improving environment.

Power characterized the market as “a tale of two markets,” explaining that while overall financing activity has begun to trend upward, a significant portion of junior explorers continue to face severe capital constraints. He noted that more than 20% of junior mining companies are operating with less than $200,000 in funding, describing conditions at that level as “depression territory.”

He said Silver Range closely tracks financing trends across the sector, particularly after a proposed deal with Altius stalled in 2023, reinforcing the importance of capital access. “Capital is the oxygen of the business,” Power emphasized, adding that while signs of recovery are emerging, the market is still far from fully healthy. He cautioned that the financing environment may not be “firing on all cylinders” until the second half of 2026.

Turning to the company’s project portfolio, Power highlighted the East Goldfield project, which is located adjacent to a development site owned by Centerra. He said the project represents a potential near-term exploration opportunity, with an estimated exploration target of between 55,000 and 70,000 ounces of gold based on results from 19 historical drill holes. Power noted that work at East Goldfield is expected to resume in the spring of 2026.

Power also discussed the Alamo project, where soil sampling was completed in December and geophysical surveys are planned for the upcoming spring season. The project hosts historic high-grade production and exhibits strong surface mineralization, supporting its potential for future exploration success.
Overall, Power said Silver Range remains focused on careful capital management and disciplined project advancement as the junior mining sector works through a prolonged but improving recovery cycle.

      <itunes:summary>Silver Range Resources CEO Mike Power joined Steve Darling to discuss the current state of the junior mining financing market and how the company is positioning itself amid what he described as a slow but gradually improving environment.

Power characterized the market as “a tale of two markets,” explaining that while overall financing activity has begun to trend upward, a significant portion of junior explorers continue to face severe capital constraints. He noted that more than 20% of junior mining companies are operating with less than $200,000 in funding, describing conditions at that level as “depression territory.”

He said Silver Range closely tracks financing trends across the sector, particularly after a proposed deal with Altius stalled in 2023, reinforcing the importance of capital access. “Capital is the oxygen of the business,” Power emphasized, adding that while signs of recovery are emerging, the market is still far from fully healthy. He cautioned that the financing environment may not be “firing on all cylinders” until the second half of 2026.

Turning to the company’s project portfolio, Power highlighted the East Goldfield project, which is located adjacent to a development site owned by Centerra. He said the project represents a potential near-term exploration opportunity, with an estimated exploration target of between 55,000 and 70,000 ounces of gold based on results from 19 historical drill holes. Power noted that work at East Goldfield is expected to resume in the spring of 2026.

Power also discussed the Alamo project, where soil sampling was completed in December and geophysical surveys are planned for the upcoming spring season. The project hosts historic high-grade production and exhibits strong surface mineralization, supporting its potential for future exploration success.
Overall, Power said Silver Range remains focused on careful capital management and disciplined project advancement as the junior mining sector works through a prolonged but improving recovery cycle.

      <title>BTC bond strategy: Connecting Excellence CEO breaks it down</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Connecting Excellence Group Plc (AQSE:XCE) CEO Scott Ellam talked with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s newly settled Bitcoin-denominated bond and how it fits into its wider strategy of increasing Bitcoin per share for shareholders.

Ellam explained that the interest-free bond has been structured to convert into shares only when XCE’s share price outperforms Bitcoin by 20%, ensuring that conversion is aligned with shareholder value creation. The bond is issued at a 30% premium to the prevailing share price, meaning bondholders pay more than market investors, which Ellam said benefits existing shareholders by increasing Bitcoin per share rather than diluting it.

Ellam described the bond as “one of the world’s first truly Bitcoin denominated bonds,” highlighting its appeal to both Bitcoin-holding institutions and traditional investors seeking Bitcoin exposure. He noted that the bond offers downside protection while providing a free option to the upside if the company’s shares outperform Bitcoin, regardless of whether Bitcoin’s price rises or falls.

The CEO also placed the bond within the company’s broader dual-track strategy. Alongside capital markets activity, Connecting Excellence continues to grow its operational executive recruitment business, which Ellam said is already making senior placements across the UK and the US. He outlined conservative growth expectations from the operating business, even without further access to capital markets.

Discussing risk, Ellam reiterated his long-term view on Bitcoin, stating that its fixed supply and increasing institutional adoption underpin the company’s strategy to steadily increase Bitcoin per share over time rather than focus on short-term volatility.

      <title>Kalayi &amp; Mont Agoma drilling: Rome Resources goes deeper</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources Plc (AIM:RMR) CEO Paul Barrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about ongoing drilling at the company’s Kalayi and Mont Agoma prospects at Bisie North in the Democratic Republic of Congo nd how deeper exploration could materially change the scale of the tin system.

Barrett explained that the company is currently drilling multiple deeper holes at Kalayi, moving beyond the shallow intercepts that underpinned the maiden mineral resource. According to Barrett, the objective is to test whether tin mineralisation widens at depth, noting that the first deeper hole delivered a “six metre zone, which is pretty encouraging,” and that further results are expected shortly.

Barrett said the shallow tin intercepts at both Kalayi and Mont Agoma are high grade but relatively thin, meaning that increased widths at depth could have a “material effect on the numbers” when the mineral resource is next updated. He added that the focus is on building tonnage by extending mineralisation downwards, particularly where grades have already proven strong.

At Mont Agoma, Barrett highlighted the importance of ongoing metallurgy work, given the presence of copper above the tin zones. He said metallurgy will be “very important” in shaping the project’s economics, with first-phase results expected imminently. These tests are aimed at understanding the recoverability of copper, zinc and silver alongside tin.

Looking ahead, Barrett outlined a busy first half of the year, with drilling expected to continue through March, assay results flowing in during April, and an updated mineral resource targeted for May. He noted that these developments align with discussions around potential strategic partnerships, including offtake and development funding.

      <title>Medicus Pharma marks Nasdaq anniversary with opening bell ceremony</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company was honored with the opportunity to ring the Nasdaq Opening Bell at the Nasdaq MarketSite in New York’s Times Square, marking the one-year anniversary of Medicus’ listing on the Nasdaq exchange.

Dr. Bokhari said the milestone reflects the company’s progress since going public and highlights its continued focus on disciplined execution across a streamlined and strategically selected clinical portfolio. Since its Nasdaq debut, Medicus has concentrated on advancing key therapeutic assets through Phase 2 proof-of-concept studies while actively pursuing licensing opportunities and strategic partnerships with established pharmaceutical companies that are well positioned to manage late-stage development and global commercialization.

Medicus’ current development pipeline is anchored by two lead programs. SkinJect is a localized, immunogenic precision therapy being developed for the treatment of basal cell carcinoma, the most common form of skin cancer. The company estimates SkinJect addresses a market opportunity of approximately $2 billion.

The pipeline also includes Teverelix, a next-generation gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist designed for patients with advanced prostate cancer who are at high cardiovascular risk and susceptible to acute urinary retention relapse. Medicus estimates the combined market opportunity for its pipeline assets at approximately $6 billion. The company announced today that the royalty rate payable on worldwide net sales of Teverelix has been reduced from ~4% to 2%, with the royalty term clarified on a country-by-country basis in line with standard industry practice. The company says this makes Teverelix more attractiveness for future partnering.

      <title>Anteris Technologies announces $200M public offering to fund clinical growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Anteris Technologies CEO Wayne Paterson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has launched a proposed underwritten public offering of $200 million of its common stock, subject to market and other customary conditions. In connection with the offering, Anteris also plans to grant the underwriters a 30-day option to purchase up to an additional $30 million of common stock at the public offering price.

Paterson also confirmed that Anteris has entered into a private placement agreement with Medtronic plc, further strengthening the company’s balance sheet and strategic positioning. The net proceeds from the public offering, together with existing cash and cash equivalents and the proceeds from the private placement, are expected to support the next phase of the company’s growth and the continued execution of its clinical and operational strategy.

The company intends to use the funds to advance the ongoing global pivotal trial of its DurAVR® Transcatheter Heart Valve for patients with severe aortic stenosis. The PARADIGM Trial is currently focused on patient recruitment and study execution, and represents a key step toward potential regulatory approval of the DurAVR® THV. In addition, Anteris plans to expand its manufacturing capabilities to support future commercialization.

A portion of the proceeds is also expected to fund continued research and development activities at v2vmedtech, inc., while the remaining capital will be allocated to working capital and other general corporate purposes as determined by management from time to time.

Anteris Technologies is a global structural heart company dedicated to the design, development, and commercialization of advanced medical devices aimed at restoring healthy heart function. Founded in Australia with a significant operational presence in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the company is science-driven and supported by a multidisciplinary team with deep expertise in structural heart disease.

The company’s lead product, the DurAVR® THV, was developed in collaboration with leading interventional cardiologists and cardiac surgeons worldwide to treat aortic stenosis, a potentially life-threatening condition caused by narrowing of the aortic valve. Anteris believes the DurAVR® THV has the potential to offer meaningful clinical benefits for patients suffering from this serious condition. He also discussed recent clinical data presented at the London Valve conference, spotlighting a dramatic reduction in patient-prosthetic mismatch (PPM) rates with DurAVR compared to the market leader—3% versus 30%.

      <title>KEFI Gold and Copper chairman on Tulu Kapi financing, project progress and Saudi JV plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[KEFI Gold and Copper PLC's (AIM:KEFI, OTC:KFFLF, FRA:KMSA) executive chairman Harry Anagnostaras-Adams talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about recent developments at the company’s flagship Tulu Kapi gold project in Ethiopia and its growing presence in Saudi Arabia.

Anagnostaras-Adams confirmed that while the $240 million debt facility was approved in October, formal documentation has now been signed, a step he described as significant for less-experienced investors. 

“To me, it was done last October… but there’s probably a lot of shareholders out there who thought, well, now it’s done,” he said, explaining the need for transparent and staged communication.

He discussed the sequencing of financing, noting that securing debt before equity allowed for better terms and flexibility: “We convinced our banks to commit first… to bring more choices to the table at better pricing.”

On the ground at Tulu Kapi, early infrastructure works are underway, including electricity connections and access roads, with bulk earthworks to follow resettlement. Fabrication of plant components is taking place offsite, and the project remains on track for mining to begin in 2027.

Regarding Saudi Arabia, Anagnostaras-Adams highlighted the strong investment interest and hinted at new joint venture developments: “Another major is coming to be part of all of this.”

      <title>Bango hits positive cash EBITDA in FY25; CEO and CFO discuss</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bango PLC (AIM:BGO, OTCQX:BGOPF) CEO Paul Larbey and CFO Matt Wilson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s full-year 2025 trading update, highlighting strong recurring revenue growth, expanding global customer adoption and a key financial inflection point as the business moves into positive cash EBITDA.

Bango reported a solid year of operational and financial progress, underpinned by continued momentum in its Digital Vending Machine (DVM) platform. Larbey explained that the DVM acts as a bridge between subscription service providers – such as streaming, gaming and AI services – and resellers like mobile network operators, enabling bundled subscription offerings. During the year, recurring revenue from the DVM grew by 30% year on year, supported by a 60% increase in the number of managed subscriptions to more than 24 million, with zero churn among DVM customers.

Customer adoption continued to accelerate, with 12 new DVM contracts signed in 2025, the highest annual total to date. Bango further strengthened its position in the US market, with the DVM now used by seven of the top eight US telcos, while also expanding into new geographies including Japan, South Korea, Turkey and South Africa.

From a financial perspective, Wilson highlighted the move to positive cash EBITDA as a major milestone. 

“That marks a real inflection point for Bango as we move into fiscal year 26,” he said. The company delivered a $2.5 million year-on-year improvement in cash EBITDA, driven by strong ARR growth and significant cost efficiencies, including a $2.9 million reduction in core administrative expenses.

Looking ahead, management expects 2026 to be a year of continued growth, supported by an increasingly strong DVM pipeline, improved revenue visibility and further expansion in subscription volumes, while maintaining a disciplined cost base.

      <itunes:subtitle>Bango PLC (AIM:BGO, OTCQX:BGOPF) CEO Paul Larbey and CFO Matt Wilson talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s full-year 2025 trading update, highlighting strong recurring revenue growth, expanding global customer adoption and a key financial inflection point as the business moves into positive cash EBITDA.

Bango reported a solid year of operational and financial progress, underpinned by continued momentum in its Digital Vending Machine (DVM) platform. Larbey explained that the DVM acts as a bridge between subscription service providers – such as streaming, gaming and AI services – and resellers like mobile network operators, enabling bundled subscription offerings. During the year, recurring revenue from the DVM grew by 30% year on year, supported by a 60% increase in the number of managed subscriptions to more than 24 million, with zero churn among DVM customers.

Customer adoption continued to accelerate, with 12 new DVM contracts signed in 2025, the highest annual total to date. Bango further strengthened its position in the US market, with the DVM now used by seven of the top eight US telcos, while also expanding into new geographies including Japan, South Korea, Turkey and South Africa.

From a financial perspective, Wilson highlighted the move to positive cash EBITDA as a major milestone. 

“That marks a real inflection point for Bango as we move into fiscal year 26,” he said. The company delivered a $2.5 million year-on-year improvement in cash EBITDA, driven by strong ARR growth and significant cost efficiencies, including a $2.9 million reduction in core administrative expenses.

Looking ahead, management expects 2026 to be a year of continued growth, supported by an increasingly strong DVM pipeline, improved revenue visibility and further expansion in subscription volumes, while maintaining a disciplined cost base.

      <title>Ilika CEO on H1 progress, from Stereax revenues to Goliath scale-up</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF, FRA:I8A) CEO Graeme Purdy talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest operational milestones, early revenues, and progress across both its Stereax and Goliath solid-state battery programmes following the release of Ilika’s half-year results.

Purdy explained that Ilika has resumed deliveries of Stereax batteries after successfully completing the technology transfer to manufacturing partner Cirtec Medical in the US. Customers are now receiving physical product again, allowing them to restart engineering work and integrate Stereax batteries into their own technology platforms. Importantly, Ilika has also announced its first follow-on commercial order for electrodes, a manufacturing step retained in the UK, marking the start of revenue generation from Stereax.

Turning to Goliath, Purdy outlined how customer validation has now been completed on both the 2Ah and larger 10Ah solid-state cells. Feedback from early testing helped identify the strengths of the technology and confirmed Ilika’s competitive position. He noted that a Tier One customer described Ilika as being “in the leading cohort of solid state battery developers”, which he said was reassuring as the company scales up.

The 10Ah Goliath cells are now with customers and represent a credible size for module and pack integration. Purdy highlighted the potential value proposition for electric vehicle manufacturers, including lower pack costs, weight reductions of around 20%, improved range, and faster charging times.

Looking ahead, Purdy said Ilika is focused on further validation, agreeing minimum viable products with customers, and identifying early commercial opportunities, potentially at the 10Ah scale, in order to freeze product design and begin generating revenues.

      <title>Cambridge Cognition CEO on growth, pharma &amp; CANTAB Pathway solution</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cambridge Cognition Holdings PLC (AIM:COG) CEO Rob Baker talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s neuroscience technology platform, its strong commercial momentum, and how validated cognitive assessments are being expanded beyond clinical trials into real-world and at-home use.

Baker explained that Cambridge Cognition is focused on brain health, developing scientifically validated digital and voice-based cognitive assessments that objectively measure cognition. He outlined how the company’s tools are used by researchers to drive scientific discovery, by pharmaceutical companies to support patient identification and drug development in the central nervous system space, and by clinicians to improve patient care through ongoing monitoring.

Discussing the company’s trading update for the year to 31 December, 2025, Baker highlighted a sharp increase in new sales orders, driven by a renewed commercial focus on large pharmaceutical customers. He said the team placed greater emphasis on communicating the scientific validation and value proposition of its tools, ensuring they could meet the growing challenges faced by drug developers. As Baker put it, the strategy was about “relentlessly focus[ing] on that commercial strategy” and execution.

A key solution discussed was CANTAB Pathways, which builds on decades of validated assessments with thousands of scientific publications behind them. Baker explained that the solution is designed to move from rapid cognitive screening through to deeper, multi-domain assessment and ongoing monitoring, addressing a clear gap in real-world cognitive measurement.

Looking ahead, Baker outlined the opportunity to bring brain health measurement into the home, likening it to how blood pressure monitoring has moved beyond the clinic. He also pointed to progress in consumer health and wellness partnerships and said investors should watch continued execution, revenue growth and expansion into healthcare and consumer applications during 2026.

      <title>Active Energy Group targets Saudi Arabia for Middle East expansion</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Active Energy Group PLC (AIM:AEG, OTCQB:ATGVF) CEO Paul Elliott talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s decision to make Saudi Arabia its first major Middle East entry point and the strategic advantages driving that move.

Elliott explained that Saudi Arabia stood out due to its combination of scale, regulatory clarity and execution speed, all of which align with the company’s strategic priorities. Elliott said the opportunity is underpinned by the Kingdom’s Vision 2030 agenda, which actively supports energy transition, digital infrastructure and innovation.

A central theme of the discussion was power costs. Elliott noted that power is often the largest expense in infrastructure and energy-related projects, particularly in the UK and Europe, where costs are high and volatile. By contrast, he said access to stable, ultra-low-cost power in Saudi Arabia “transforms the economics,” improving margins and shortening payback periods for investors.

The conversation also covered funding opportunities in the region. Elliott highlighted the importance of securing approval from the Ministry of Investment for Saudi Arabia (MISA), which Active Energy Group has achieved, alongside engagement with the Research, Development and Innovation Authority (RDIA). He explained that these relationships are critical to accessing regional and Sharia-compliant capital, which is actively seeking infrastructure, energy and innovation projects.

Looking ahead, Elliott outlined tangible milestones investors should watch over the next 6 to 12 months. These include establishing the company’s Saudi entity, progressing power and site discussions, deepening engagement with innovation bodies such as the RDIA, and early signs of regional partnerships and funding structures. According to Elliott, these steps will help de-risk the strategy and demonstrate real momentum on the ground.

      <title>Valereum eyes US listing after $200m capital boost</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ) CEO Gary Cottle talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s transformative $200 million recapitalisation deal with Quorium Global Photonics (QGP), which secures $15.9 million in annual recurring income over the next five years. Cottle described QGP as a “fabulous partner” and emphasised the significance of having a long-term strategic investor aligned with Valereum’s vision.

The deal positions Valereum as cash-flow positive overnight and includes a $1 billion growth facility agreement in principle. This will support the company’s expansion into real-world asset tokenisation and AI-enabled investments. “We're a very low cash burn company now,” Cottle noted, adding that Valereum’s model is to partner with category-leading tech firms rather than develop technologies in-house.

A key focus for the company is a listing on a major US exchange such as Nasdaq or NYSE. Cottle explained that Valereum qualifies for a fast-track listing under F-1 and will work closely with QGP to build a $50–$100 million business as a platform for that move.

Valereum also plans to use its new firepower to scale its AI and tokenisation ecosystem. Cottle said, “There are 4 or 5 immediate AI bolt-ons,” including an AI crypto fund of funds and leveraging generative AI for data applications. He stressed that AI is “at the heart and part and parcel of what we're going to be doing.”

Cottle also highlighted how the deal fundamentally de-risks the business from an investor standpoint, removing the need for constant fundraising and providing clarity on the company’s growth path.

      <itunes:summary>Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM, FRA:6TJ) CEO Gary Cottle talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s transformative $200 million recapitalisation deal with Quorium Global Photonics (QGP), which secures $15.9 million in annual recurring income over the next five years. Cottle described QGP as a “fabulous partner” and emphasised the significance of having a long-term strategic investor aligned with Valereum’s vision.

The deal positions Valereum as cash-flow positive overnight and includes a $1 billion growth facility agreement in principle. This will support the company’s expansion into real-world asset tokenisation and AI-enabled investments. “We&apos;re a very low cash burn company now,” Cottle noted, adding that Valereum’s model is to partner with category-leading tech firms rather than develop technologies in-house.

A key focus for the company is a listing on a major US exchange such as Nasdaq or NYSE. Cottle explained that Valereum qualifies for a fast-track listing under F-1 and will work closely with QGP to build a $50–$100 million business as a platform for that move.

Valereum also plans to use its new firepower to scale its AI and tokenisation ecosystem. Cottle said, “There are 4 or 5 immediate AI bolt-ons,” including an AI crypto fund of funds and leveraging generative AI for data applications. He stressed that AI is “at the heart and part and parcel of what we&apos;re going to be doing.”

Cottle also highlighted how the deal fundamentally de-risks the business from an investor standpoint, removing the need for constant fundraising and providing clarity on the company’s growth path.

      <title>Caledonia Mining: $150m funding secures Bilboes growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Caledonia Mining Corporation PLC (AIM:CMCL, NYSE-A:CMCL, VFEX:CMCL) chief executive Mark Learmonth talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s US$150 million convertible loan note and how this financing underpins the development of the Bilboes Gold Project in Zimbabwe.

Learmonth explained that the seven-year convertible note, carrying a 5.875% coupon, was structured to minimise shareholder dilution while providing substantial growth capital. He noted that the company enhanced the conversion mechanics through a derivative structure, lifting the effective conversion premium to around 75%, or just over US$50 per share. This approach, he said, ensures Caledonia Mining is not “issuing equity referencing our current share price” while the company remains on a strong growth trajectory.

Learmonth highlighted exceptional investor appetite for the deal, revealing demand exceeded US$600 million during a brief marketing process. Discussions with investors focused on three key themes: Zimbabwe as an investment destination, the cash-generating role of the Blanket Mine, and the equity upside from the Bilboes Gold Project. As Learmonth put it, the combination of “Blanket, which is the diesel engine that sort of provides the cash at the moment, plus the racehorse that is Bilboes, fundamentally transforms Caledonia”.

The interview also outlined the company’s four-part funding strategy for Bilboes, including gold price hedging, the completed convertible note, interim debt from regional banks, and longer-term project finance. Learmonth said this structure provides sufficient liquidity to begin ordering long-lead equipment and advance engineering work without delay.

Looking ahead, he flagged upcoming milestones including the appointment of interim funding lead managers, further progress updates on Bilboes, and exploration results from Blanket and Motapa.

      <title>The Vaccine Group beats trial rival with Streptococcus suis candidate</title>
      <description><![CDATA[The Vaccine Group (TVG) CEO Jeremy Salt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about encouraging efficacy results for the company’s Streptococcus suis vaccine candidate, marking an important step forward for its veterinary vaccine platform.

TVG is a Frontier IP Group PLC (LSE:FIPP, FRA:8WT) portfolio company.
 
Salt explained that the latest results demonstrate how effective the vaccine candidate can be against Streptococcus suis, a serious bacterial disease affecting pigs globally. He said the findings are particularly significant as they show the strength and flexibility of the company’s platform technology across multiple disease types. “It’s a very nice indication of how effective this vaccine candidate can be against this particular disease,” Salt noted.

Streptococcus suis is widely distributed in commercially farmed pigs, with hundreds of millions of animals potentially affected worldwide. Salt highlighted that the disease is a major contributor to antibiotic use in pig farming and that a successful vaccine could help significantly reduce reliance on antibiotics. He also pointed out the zoonotic nature of the disease, which can infect humans who work with pigs or handle pork products, sometimes with severe or fatal outcomes.

TVG has already demonstrated the efficacy of its platform against viral disease, including bovine respiratory syncytial virus in cattle, and Salt said the latest pig data further underlines the breadth of the technology. The company is currently engaged in discussions with a commercial partner and aims to move the Streptococcus suis vaccine into a full development phase.

Salt added that TVG is also seeking partners for its cattle vaccine and intends to use future funding to advance a broader portfolio spanning livestock and companion animals.

      <title>Galliford Try boosts FY guidance amid AMP8 momentum</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Galliford Try Holdings PLC (LSE:GFRD) chief financial officer Kris Hampson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the Group’s latest half-year trading update, outlining strong financial momentum and strategic progress across key markets.

Hampson reported further upgrades to 2026 full-year revenue and adjusted PBT expectations, attributing the positive outlook to consistent, quality risk-managed delivery alongside strong market dynamics supported by recent national and local infrastructure commitments. “Our order book is up to £4.1 billion from £3.9 billion a year ago… we're making good progress,” he said.

Galliford Try continues to deliver on its strategy of becoming a sustainable, UK-only tier one construction group, with consistent growth now reported for five consecutive years. The company remains focused on constructing vital infrastructure, including roads, water, energy, healthcare, and affordable housing. Hampson highlighted recent success in affordable homes and the energy sector and securing a framework position in the £59 billion National Grid high voltage programme.

Discussing sector-specific performance, Hampson noted that the transition from AMP7 to AMP8 in water is progressing smoothly, thanks to close collaboration with longstanding clients. Beyond water, all other divisions are making headway, strengthening the group’s overall position.

Hampson also emphasised cash strength, citing a 6% increase in average cash to nearly £190 million, and noted that the share buyback programme is progressing well.

Modern methods of construction (MMC) are increasingly becoming a differentiator for Galliford Try. Citing the recent Cardiff high-rise project ’The Rise', Hampson said, “We used offsite production... all of the panels were constructed inside a factory,” allowing the team to efficiently complete the project on a difficult site next to a railway line. He believes MMC will play an ever-increasing role across sectors such as residential, defence, and judicial infrastructure.

In the positive update, Hampson highlights the UK-centric nature of Galliford Try should largely shield it from international economic headwinds and tariffs.

      <title>Ilika CEO hails first purchase order for Stereax electrodes from Cirtec Medical</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF) CEO Graeme Purdy joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more on the company’s transition into revenue generation through its partnership with Cirtec Medical and the commercial rollout of its Stereax solid-state battery technology.

Purdy discussed what he described as a significant milestone for the company, as it moves from a technology transfer phase into product shipments and early revenues through Cirtec Medical. He explained that an initial purchase order from Cirtec marks the point where Ilika is “now starting to ship products to customers,” following the successful transfer of Ilika’s process technology and product know-how to Cirtec.

He noted that Ilika is supplying electrodes from its UK facility to support Cirtec’s manufacturing activities, describing this as “an early indicator that revenues are starting to ramp.” Purdy also outlined why Ilika has retained cathode deposition and battery formation in the UK, explaining that this is the most proprietary part of the Stereax manufacturing process and requires significant expertise to achieve high yields. Retaining this step, he said, allows Ilika to generate early revenue while maintaining control over a critical part of the value chain.

Looking ahead, Purdy highlighted key milestones investors should watch over the next 6 to 12 months, including integration of the Stereax battery into Cirtec technology platforms, entry into customer devices, and the start of regulatory approval processes. He added that industry events such as the North American Neuromodulation Society meeting and MD&M West play an important role in driving customer engagement and business development.

Purdy summed up the progress by saying the developments signal an exciting period ahead as Ilika works towards scaling revenues.

      <title>PensionBee expand into U.S. to simplify retirement ravings</title>
      <description><![CDATA[PensionBee CEO and Founder Romi Savova joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to discuss the company’s expansion into the United States and its mission to make retirement savings simpler, more accessible, and easier to manage for consumers.

Savova explained that PensionBee helps individuals consolidate old 401(k) plans and IRAs into a single, easy-to-use online account. The company partners with State Street to provide professional asset management, allowing customers to track, manage, and grow their retirement savings in one centralized platform.

Founded more than a decade ago, PensionBee emerged from Savova’s own personal experience after leaving a job and encountering significant challenges transferring her pension. “It made me realize that retirement is so important to so many people, and yet it can be really hard to actually be in control of it,” she said, noting that the complexity of retirement systems often leaves people disengaged from long-term financial planning.

Now listed on the London Stock Exchange, PensionBee manages approximately $10 billion in assets on behalf of more than 300,000 customers. The company officially entered the U.S. market in 2024, targeting what Savova described as the world’s largest and most fragmented retirement market. She highlighted that more than 30 million dormant 401(k) accounts currently exist in the U.S., representing a significant opportunity to help consumers reclaim and consolidate forgotten retirement savings.

To support its U.S. growth strategy, PensionBee has launched high-profile marketing initiatives in major cities including New York, Chicago, and Seattle. These efforts include television advertising campaigns and prominent sponsorships at venues such as Madison Square Garden, aimed at encouraging broader conversations around retirement planning. “We’re trying to get people talking about retirement, excited about retirement,” Savova said.

With its federally registered Individual Retirement Account offering and fully digital platform, PensionBee is positioned to serve customers nationwide. Savova concluded by reaffirming the company’s core mission: “Everyone deserves a happy retirement.”

      <title>American Resources mints world’s first critical minerals utility token</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp Executive Vice President Mark LaVerghetta joined Steve Darling to announce the successful minting of the world's first utility token for critical minerals, demonstrating technical readiness to support compliance with the U.S. Department of War's Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement requirements.

LaVerghetta told Proactive the utility token, minted within a privately operated Sui Layer-1 blockchain environment, delivers immutable, end-to-end traceability for refined neodymium oxide produced at ReElement's Noblesville, Indiana refining facility. The token establishes a verifiable chain of custody across sourcing, processing, and refining, and is designed to function as an internal compliance and audit instrument for ReElement's refining platform and its customers by incorporating DFARS-relevant data and controls.

This milestone represents a significant advancement in the tokenization of real-world assets (RWAs) within the critical minerals sector. By integrating SAGINT's institutional-grade blockchain platform with ReElement's advanced refining operations, the utility token captures and cryptographically records key data points-including material origin, processing integrity, and mass balance-creating a tamper-resistant provenance record. The system is designed to streamline compliance workflows, enhance supply-chain transparency, and support secure trade finance for U.S. manufacturers and defense contractors.

The company also announced a major technical milestone achieved by the company’s subsidiary, ReElement Technologies, which has successfully developed commercial-scale protocols to produce ultra-high-purity samarium for both commercial and defense applications. According to the company, ReElement has achieved samarium purity levels exceeding 99.9% and has engineered its commercial process flows specifically to meet rising market demand for samarium-cobalt magnet–grade materials used in defense systems and advanced industrial technologies.

The company says this achievement builds on ReElement’s previously announced successes in refining SEG+ ore concentrates and other mined feedstocks containing elevated concentrations of heavy rare earth elements. He emphasized that ReElement’s proprietary multi-mineral, multi-feedstock refining platform continues to set new global benchmarks for flexibility, efficiency, and scalability. 

The company noted that demand for samarium-cobalt magnets across commercial, industrial, and defense sectors continues to accelerate, driven by both technological advancement and heightened supply-chain concerns. Recent short-term disruptions in global supply have increased the urgency to establish reliable, domestic sources of high-purity samarium. Samarium-cobalt magnets are considered critical components in numerous defense and advanced technology platforms, including precision-guided munitions, aircraft and missile actuators, and systems that must perform reliably under extreme thermal and mechanical stress.

      <title>Blockchain leads returns as GinsGlobal highlights tech megatrend strength</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Anthony Ginsberg, CEO of GinsGlobal Index Fund, recently spoke with Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the strong performance of technology-focused subthemes within the firm’s global investment strategy, highlighting blockchain as the standout performer over the past year.

Ginsberg explained that among the fund’s ten technology subthemes—which include artificial intelligence, robotics, cloud computing, blockchain, cybersecurity, gene editing, and defense technology—blockchain delivered the strongest returns, generating a gain of approximately 33% during the previous year. He noted that several other subthemes also produced double-digit returns, reflecting sustained investor interest and growing capital flows into innovation-driven sectors.

Cybersecurity, cloud computing, gene editing, and defense technology were among the areas that posted particularly strong performance. According to Ginsberg, these sectors continue to benefit from structural growth drivers, increasing enterprise adoption, and heightened geopolitical and digital security concerns.
Looking ahead, Ginsberg said the firm expects increased merger and acquisition activity, especially in the cloud, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity spaces, where mid- and small-cap company valuations remain attractive. He added that consolidation could act as an additional catalyst for returns as larger players seek to expand capabilities and market share.

Ginsberg also pointed to supportive macroeconomic conditions, including a weakening U.S. dollar and the prospect of interest rate cuts, which tend to favor growth-oriented equities. He emphasized that current valuation multiples remain well below the levels seen during the dot-com era, suggesting that today’s technology markets are fundamentally stronger and less speculative.

Turning to artificial intelligence, Ginsberg expressed optimism around accelerating corporate adoption, drawing parallels to the rapid shift toward cloud computing in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. He also highlighted the increasing convergence of AI with gaming and social media platforms, as well as the rapid emergence of defense technology as a key growth area closely linked to cybersecurity.

“The cybersecurity market is growing at nearly 20% per year, and we expect it to double in size within four years,” Ginsberg said, noting the strong interconnection between cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and defense technologies.

Overall, the discussion underscored how GinsGlobal Index Fund is positioning its portfolio to maintain diversified exposure to long-term global megatrends across technology and innovation, while seeking to capitalize on both structural growth and evolving market conditions.

      <itunes:summary>Anthony Ginsberg, CEO of GinsGlobal Index Fund, recently spoke with Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the strong performance of technology-focused subthemes within the firm’s global investment strategy, highlighting blockchain as the standout performer over the past year.

Ginsberg explained that among the fund’s ten technology subthemes—which include artificial intelligence, robotics, cloud computing, blockchain, cybersecurity, gene editing, and defense technology—blockchain delivered the strongest returns, generating a gain of approximately 33% during the previous year. He noted that several other subthemes also produced double-digit returns, reflecting sustained investor interest and growing capital flows into innovation-driven sectors.

Cybersecurity, cloud computing, gene editing, and defense technology were among the areas that posted particularly strong performance. According to Ginsberg, these sectors continue to benefit from structural growth drivers, increasing enterprise adoption, and heightened geopolitical and digital security concerns.
Looking ahead, Ginsberg said the firm expects increased merger and acquisition activity, especially in the cloud, artificial intelligence, and cybersecurity spaces, where mid- and small-cap company valuations remain attractive. He added that consolidation could act as an additional catalyst for returns as larger players seek to expand capabilities and market share.

Ginsberg also pointed to supportive macroeconomic conditions, including a weakening U.S. dollar and the prospect of interest rate cuts, which tend to favor growth-oriented equities. He emphasized that current valuation multiples remain well below the levels seen during the dot-com era, suggesting that today’s technology markets are fundamentally stronger and less speculative.

Turning to artificial intelligence, Ginsberg expressed optimism around accelerating corporate adoption, drawing parallels to the rapid shift toward cloud computing in the aftermath of the COVID-19 pandemic. He also highlighted the increasing convergence of AI with gaming and social media platforms, as well as the rapid emergence of defense technology as a key growth area closely linked to cybersecurity.

“The cybersecurity market is growing at nearly 20% per year, and we expect it to double in size within four years,” Ginsberg said, noting the strong interconnection between cybersecurity, cloud infrastructure, and defense technologies.

Overall, the discussion underscored how GinsGlobal Index Fund is positioning its portfolio to maintain diversified exposure to long-term global megatrends across technology and innovation, while seeking to capitalize on both structural growth and evolving market conditions.

      <title>C3 Metals expands high-grade Copper-Gold mineralization at Khaleesi Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[C3 Metals CEO Dan Symons joined Steve Darling from Proactive to report results from the second drill hole completed at the company’s Khaleesi copper project in southern Peru, highlighting continued success in expanding copper-gold mineralization at depth and along strike.

The second hole intersected a broad mineralized interval of 51.1 metres grading 0.54% copper, 0.31 g/t gold, 3.21 g/t silver and 6 ppm molybdenum, equivalent to 0.86% copper, from a downhole depth of 339.6 metres, or approximately 250 metres vertical depth. Within this interval, the company identified a higher-grade core of 39.1 metres averaging 0.66% copper, 0.39 g/t gold, 4.01 g/t silver and 6 ppm molybdenum, equating to 1.06% copper equivalent. This included an even stronger section of 18.0 metres grading 1.08% copper, 0.76 g/t gold, 7.62 g/t silver and 7 ppm molybdenum, or 1.85% copper equivalent.

Symons explained that the hole was collared along the marble-diorite contact and designed to test the southwest extension of copper mineralization previously intersected in hole KHZ5800-001, which returned multiple mineralized zones. The latest hole successfully tested beneath magnetite and garnet skarns observed at surface, as well as the southwest extension of coincident chargeability and magnetic anomalies defined by 3D geophysical modeling.

The results confirm that the vein-hosted copper-gold mineralization at Khaleesi remains open along strike and at depth. Based on these encouraging intersections, the company is planning multiple scout drill holes beneath areas of thin glacial till cover to further evaluate the sheeted vein system and to probe deeper into the potential source of the intense quartz veining encountered in the latest drilling.

Drilling at Khaleesi is currently focused on two highly prospective target areas: a skarn zone in the western portion of the project and a multiphase intrusive complex in the eastern area. To date, C3 Metals has completed approximately 4,200 metres of its planned 6,300-metre maiden drill program. Eight drill holes have been completed, with assay results pending for six holes, while two additional holes are currently in progress.

      <title>Corcel CEO discusses KON-16 progress and potential of Angola and Brazil assets</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Corcel PLC (LSE:CRCL) CEO Scott Gilbert talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s transformation into a high-impact, upstream oil and gas exploration business, with a strategic focus on sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America.

Gilbert outlined recent progress at the KON-16 block in Angola, where Corcel is the operator. He noted, “We took it to 55% at no cost to the company. Then we did a transaction that took us to 85%.” Following that, the company sold a 5% stake to Sintana Energy for $2.5 million, demonstrating a strong transactional strategy.

In Angola, Corcel is currently executing a 326 km 2D seismic survey, part of the effort to finalise drilling locations across five identified pre- and post-salt prospects. Gilbert described this as “very exciting times” with over 200 personnel on the ground.

The company also raised £3 million in December 2025 from two sophisticated investors. “We've raised money in a very disciplined way,” Gilbert said, adding that this progression reflects growing market confidence. The company’s market cap has grown from just a few million to nearly £30 million.

Looking ahead, Corcel aims to complete seismic work, determine drill targets, and prepare for its first well, while evaluating production acquisition opportunities to balance its exploration-led portfolio.

      <title>Pinnacle Silver &amp; Gold confirms strong Gold-Silver mineralization at El Potrero</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pinnacle Silver and Gold CEO Robert Archer joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce encouraging results from surface and underground sampling of the Estrella Vein at the high-grade El Potrero gold-silver project in Durango, Mexico. The sampling has confirmed the presence of significant gold-silver mineralization within this key vein.

The limited mine workings at El Potrero measure 42.5 metres in length. Channel sampling identified two distinct mineralized zones: one yielding an average of 5.49 g/t Au and 48 g/t Ag over 0.72 metres width and 12 metres strike length, and another averaging 1.87 g/t Au and 51 g/t Ag over 1.1 metres width and 22.5 metres strike length. Archer noted that the zones are currently separated by 18 metres of lower-grade material in the adit but could merge at depth. 

On surface, the Estrella Vein has now been traced for nearly 150 metres along strike, remaining open in both directions and reaching up to 6.0 metres in width at the northern exposure. Systematic channel sampling is planned over the coming weeks. Early surface results have already returned an average of 3.35 g/t Au and 204 g/t Ag.

Additionally, underground channel sampling at the historic La Dura 2 mine workings previously returned 1.98 g/t Au and 98 g/t Ag over a 12-metre strike length. Surface sampling has now extended the gold-silver mineralization along strike to approximately 45 metres. Among seven surface samples, highlights include 6.89 g/t Au and 208 g/t Ag over 1.4 metres, 5.95 g/t Au and 185 g/t Ag over 1.0 metres, 5.75 g/t Au and 230 g/t Ag over 0.7 metres, and 3.39 g/t Au and 248 g/t Ag over 1.3 metres. This new data will support the delineation drilling of La Dura once the surface program begins.

A total of 62 underground channel samples and nine surface samples were collected along the Estrella vein. The company plans systematic channel sampling in the coming weeks to support delineation drilling.

Among seven surface samples, highlights include 6.89 g/t Au and 208 g/t Ag over 1.4 metres, 5.95 g/t Au and 185 g/t Ag over 1.0 metres, 5.75 g/t Au and 230 g/t Ag over 0.7 metres, and 3.39 g/t Au and 248 g/t Ag over 1.3 metres. This new data will support the delineation drilling of La Dura once the surface program begins.

A total of 62 underground channel samples and nine surface samples were collected along the Estrella vein. The company plans systematic channel sampling in the coming weeks to support delineation drilling.

      <itunes:subtitle>Pinnacle Silver and Gold CEO Robert Archer joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce encouraging results from surface and underground sampling of the Estrella Vein at the high-grade El Potrero gold-silver project in Durango, Mexico. The sampling has confirmed the presence of significant gold-silver mineralization within this key vein.

The limited mine workings at El Potrero measure 42.5 metres in length. Channel sampling identified two distinct mineralized zones: one yielding an average of 5.49 g/t Au and 48 g/t Ag over 0.72 metres width and 12 metres strike length, and another averaging 1.87 g/t Au and 51 g/t Ag over 1.1 metres width and 22.5 metres strike length. Archer noted that the zones are currently separated by 18 metres of lower-grade material in the adit but could merge at depth. 

On surface, the Estrella Vein has now been traced for nearly 150 metres along strike, remaining open in both directions and reaching up to 6.0 metres in width at the northern exposure. Systematic channel sampling is planned over the coming weeks. Early surface results have already returned an average of 3.35 g/t Au and 204 g/t Ag.

      <title>ReconAfrica raises $36M+ in oversubscribed financing to accelerate 2026 exploration plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Reconnaissance Energy Africa or ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the successful completion of the company’s previously disclosed financing, which was oversubscribed and raised more than $36 million in gross proceeds. The strengthened balance sheet positions ReconAfrica to accelerate activity across its expanding asset portfolio and advance a multi-pronged capital program planned for 2026.

Reinsborough explained that the new capital will be deployed to fast-track work programs in both Namibia and offshore Gabon. The financing follows encouraging results from the Kavango West 1X well in the Kavango Basin and the recent addition of the Ngulu Block offshore Gabon, which includes the Loba oil discovery, further diversifying the company’s exploration and development opportunities.

In Namibia, ReconAfrica plans to conduct an extensive production test at the Kavango West 1X discovery well and install production casing, while simultaneously progressing toward spudding the next Kavango appraisal well. These activities are intended to further evaluate the commercial potential of the discovery and build momentum toward delineation of the resource.

Offshore Gabon, the company plans to reprocess seismic data covering the Loba discovery and the broader exploration inventory on the Ngulu Block. This work is expected to advance the project toward the delivery of a resource report and achieve drill-ready status for a future appraisal well.

As part of the financing, BW Energy Limited, through its wholly owned subsidiary BW Energy Services Limited (BWESL), participated by acquiring 2,315,780 Units for total consideration of approximately C$2.2 million. Each Unit comprised one common share and one-half of a common share purchase warrant.

Reinsborough noted that the oversubscribed financing provides the company with the financial flexibility required to pursue multiple high-impact catalysts in parallel, as ReconAfrica works to unlock the potential of its onshore and offshore assets and deliver value through disciplined exploration and appraisal activities.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai expands KraftyLab to 35 U.S. cities, adds 58 new in-person experiences</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share details on the company’s continued national expansion, announcing that KraftyLab has successfully scaled its in-person footprint to 35 major metropolitan hubs across the United States, up from 20 previously. The expansion represents a substantial increase in Nextech3D.ai’s physical service capacity as it works to support a growing roster of Fortune 500 and enterprise clients seeking high-quality, scalable in-person and hybrid experiences.

Gappelberg explained that, alongside the geographic expansion, the company has officially onboarded 58 new premium offerings to its unified experience platform. These additions are designed to address the evolving needs of decentralized enterprise teams heading into the first quarter of fiscal 2026. The new experiences span multiple categories, including Wellness and High-Energy Fitness programs, Professional Development sessions, and Connoisseur and Culinary-focused suites, broadening the appeal of KraftyLab’s portfolio across diverse corporate use cases.

The national rollout is being supported by Nextech3D.ai’s newly developing artificial intelligence architecture, which integrates OpenAI’s large language models with the Pinecone vector database. This “semantic memory” framework enables the company’s platforms to deliver context-aware, autonomous assistance by understanding intent, history, and preferences across client interactions. By leveraging Pinecone’s high-performance vector storage, Nextech3D.ai’s AI concierge can now manage and execute complex event logistics using natural language processing across its event ecosystem.

Gappelberg noted that the expansion to 35 cities and the launch of 58 new experiences are closely aligned with the company’s strategy to achieve high-margin, asset-light scalability. By maintaining a software-first model and increasingly automating event coordination and logistics through AI, Nextech3D.ai is targeting a 90% gross margin profile for its 2026 fiscal year, although the company cautioned that there is no assurance this objective will be achieved.

      <title>HIVE Digital expands into Paraguay with BUZZ cloud AI platform launch</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hive Digital Technologies’s subsiderary BUZZ HPC CEO Craig Tavares joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s expansion into Paraguay through a strategic joint venture with the country’s leading telecommunications operator. Through this partnership, HIVE is launching one of Paraguay’s first purpose-built artificial intelligence BUZZ Cloud platforms, located in Asunción and hosted within a Tier III data center operated by the nation’s top telecom provider.

The new BUZZ Cloud platform is designed to deliver high-performance computing (HPC) and artificial intelligence infrastructure to a broad customer base, including academic and research institutions, enterprises, financial services firms, and healthcare providers across Paraguay and the wider South American region. HIVE views the initiative as a key step in diversifying its digital infrastructure strategy beyond Bitcoin mining and into scalable AI and cloud-based services.

Tavares told Proactive that the initial deployment is expected to commence in the first quarter of 2026, beginning with an enterprise-grade GPU cluster capable of supporting AI training, inference, and other data-intensive workloads. The platform is intended to scale progressively in line with customer demand and capital availability, leveraging Paraguay’s abundant renewable hydroelectric power, the telecom partner’s national fiber network, and enterprise-grade data center operations.

HIVE’s strategy in Paraguay is underpinned by a long-term, multi-year vision to transform energy-led digital infrastructure into scalable AI and data center capacity. The company believes that the continued growth of the AI-driven digital economy depends on access to reliable, low-cost electricity and high-capacity dark fiber connectivity that can support secure, low-latency data movement.

While Tier III data centers capable of hosting GPU-intensive workloads require significantly higher capital investment, HIVE believes its phased development approach—starting with Tier I infrastructure and scaling upward—offers a disciplined and economically efficient pathway toward building advanced, AI-ready facilities over time.

Paraguay has experienced periods of strong economic growth in recent quarters, supported by a stable government and a pro-investment policy environment. HIVE believes these favorable conditions, combined with the country’s renewable energy profile, provide a compelling backdrop for long-term digital infrastructure investment.

The company noted that this staged development model mirrors the evolution of digital infrastructure seen in regions such as Texas, including the San Antonio to West Texas corridor, where early energy-intensive data center deployments later expanded into more capital-intensive Tier III facilities capable of supporting advanced enterprise and AI workloads.

While Tier III data centers capable of hosting GPU-intensive workloads require significantly higher capital investment, HIVE believes its phased development approach—starting with Tier I infrastructure and scaling upward—offers a disciplined and economically efficient pathway toward building advanced, AI-ready facilities over time.

Paraguay has experienced periods of strong economic growth in recent quarters, supported by a stable government and a pro-investment policy environment. HIVE believes these favorable conditions, combined with the country’s renewable energy profile, provide a compelling backdrop for long-term digital infrastructure investment.

The company noted that this staged development model mirrors the evolution of digital infrastructure seen in regions such as Texas, including the San Antonio to West Texas corridor, where early energy-intensive data center deployments later expanded into more capital-intensive Tier III facilities capable of supporting advanced enterprise and AI workloads.

      <title>GraphEnergyTech joins Japanese accelerator programme, targets £3m fundraise for solar breakthrough</title>
      <description><![CDATA[GraphEnergyTech CEO Dr Thomas Baumeler talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent progress, funding goals, and strategic direction within the fast-evolving solar energy sector.

Baumeler highlighted GraphEnergyTech’s selection for Japan’s Keihanna Global Acceleration Program (KGAP+). This is particularly significant as the company’s graphene-enhanced carbon electrode technology aligns closely with Japan’s advanced perovskite solar cell ecosystem. Baumeler explained that perovskite, originally developed in Japan, is a promising next-generation photovoltaic material that offers similar efficiency to silicon panels at a much lower cost. “We do have a solution that fits particularly well [with] perovskite solar cells,” he said.

Baumeler confirmed that GraphEnergyTech, a Frontier IP Group PLC (LSE:FIPP) portfolio company, is currently raising a minimum of £3 million in a seed funding round. The funds will primarily be used to scale production capacity and accelerate R&D focused on silicon solar cells. “We got tremendous attention from PV players,” Baumeler noted, referencing interest from both photovoltaic and printed electronics sectors.

GraphEnergyTech’s product range, launched three months ago, targets perovskite applications directly—making Japan an ideal market. The company has already secured a term sheet with Aramco Ventures and has 50% of the round committed, leaving room for further investor engagement.

      <title>Replenish Nutrients targets $3M financing to scale regenerative fertilizer growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Replenish Nutrients CEO Neil Wiens joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a non-brokered private placement of up to $3 million, a financing designed to accelerate the company’s growth strategy in the regenerative fertilizer market. The offering is expected to close in early February, with certain directors and officers of the company indicating their intention to participate by subscribing for Units.

Wiens explained that the net proceeds from the financing will be directed toward working capital needs tied to Replenish’s previously announced licensing agreements with MJ Ag Solutions and Farmers Union Enterprises, as well as to support operational requirements at the company’s Beiseker manufacturing facility. These initiatives are central to Replenish’s strategy of expanding its regenerative fertilizer production and distribution capacity through a mix of owned infrastructure and capital-light partnerships.

As part of the offering, Replenish also announced it has secured a $1.95 million strategic investment from institutional investor Sorbie Bornholm. Under the associated Sharing Agreement, the company will receive fixed monthly payments of $81,250 over a 24-month period, beginning four months after the closing of the offering.

Management highlighted that this innovative financing structure is well aligned with Replenish’s growth profile, providing a predictable source of capital, fixed and transparent share dilution, and the potential to receive total proceeds in excess of the initial $1.95 million over the life of the agreement.

Wiens noted that the financing represents another important milestone for the company, strengthening its balance sheet while supporting the continued rollout of its regenerative fertilizer solutions. The funding is expected to underpin the expansion of Replenish’s distribution footprint across Western Canada and the U.S. Midwest, leveraging both the Beiseker facility and the company’s recently announced licensing partnerships to drive scalable, sustainable growth.

      <title>Medicus Pharma to Present Women’s Teverelix Data as SkinJect Phase 2 Approaches Database Lock</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that detailed clinical data for Teverelix, the Company’s long-acting gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist, have been accepted for e-Poster presentation at the American Association of Clinical Endocrinology (AACE) Annual Meeting, taking place April 22–24 in Las Vegas, Nevada. The acceptance represents an important milestone in advancing the clinical profile of Teverelix and increasing its visibility within the endocrinology and women’s health communities.
Bokhari explained that the accepted abstract, titled “Evaluation of Teverelix,” summarizes results from two randomized, placebo-controlled Phase I clinical studies involving a total of 48 healthy premenopausal women. The studies were designed to assess the drug’s pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics, including how Teverelix is absorbed, its ability to suppress key reproductive hormones, its effects on bone turnover markers, and its overall safety following a single subcutaneous injection.
Across both studies, participants received single doses of Teverelix at 30 mg, 45 mg, or 60 mg, or placebo, and were monitored for approximately one month. The Phase I results demonstrated rapid and reversible suppression of luteinizing hormone (LH) and follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), with hormone reductions observed within 24 hours of dosing. Estradiol suppression was dose-dependent and reversible, with multiple participants achieving levels within the clinically relevant Barbieri window of 30–50 pg/mL, a range associated with symptom control while reducing the risk of bone loss.
The data also showed sustained pharmacodynamic activity, with hormone suppression lasting up to two to three weeks following a single injection at higher dose levels. Importantly, bone turnover markers remained stable throughout the observation period, suggesting no evidence of short-term bone loss. Teverelix was generally well tolerated, with a favorable safety profile, no drug-related serious adverse events, and only mild-to-moderate treatment-emergent adverse events reported.
Bokhari also provided an update on Skinject, the company’s flagship asset targeting non-melanoma skin cancers. He confirmed a 90-patient phase two study is complete, and that Medicus Pharma is approaching a database lock and data analysis phase, with results anticipated to align with strong interim data.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai completes BitPay integration, advances phase 2 blockchain platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has successfully finalized its integration with BitPay, a leading global blockchain payment services company. This milestone, combined with significant backend infrastructure upgrades, further strengthens Nextech3D.ai’s Phase 2 Blockchain Suite across its flagship platforms, including KraftyLab, Map D, and Eventdex.
Gappelberg explained that over the past week the company completed a series of critical technical migrations and deployments designed to materially enhance platform stability, performance, and scalability. As part of these efforts, Nextech3D.ai migrated and deployed its backend services to AWS container-based infrastructure supported by a standalone database architecture. This transition is expected to improve resource efficiency by up to 80% compared to traditional deployment methods, while also delivering a highly available, secure, and resilient environment capable of supporting global-scale event operations.
In parallel, the company completed integrated smart contract deployment across both backend and frontend systems, ensuring a single, verified contract version for all users. The upgraded blockchain framework now supports both ERC-721 standards for unique digital collectibles and ERC-1155 standards for multi-tier ticketing use cases. This enhanced flexibility allows event organizers to manage a wide range of digital assets—such as VIP, General Admission, and other tiered access products—within a single, cost-efficient smart contract structure.
The BitPay integration significantly expands payment flexibility for Nextech3D.ai’s clients, enabling transactions to be settled in more than 100 supported digital assets. Industry data continues to highlight the operational and cost benefits for merchants adopting blockchain-based payments, including faster settlement times and reduced transaction fees.
With the foundational AWS migration now complete, Nextech3D.ai is turning its focus to the final components of its Q1 blockchain roadmap. These include configurable royalty-splitting functionality designed to automatically redirect 7% to 10% of secondary resale value back to creators and event organizers, as well as custodial resale capabilities. The custodial resale feature will allow tickets to be resold directly from custodial wallets, removing technical barriers for enterprise and non-crypto-native users and further accelerating mainstream adoption of blockchain-enabled event solutions.

      <itunes:summary>Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has successfully finalized its integration with BitPay, a leading global blockchain payment services company. This milestone, combined with significant backend infrastructure upgrades, further strengthens Nextech3D.ai’s Phase 2 Blockchain Suite across its flagship platforms, including KraftyLab, Map D, and Eventdex.
Gappelberg explained that over the past week the company completed a series of critical technical migrations and deployments designed to materially enhance platform stability, performance, and scalability. As part of these efforts, Nextech3D.ai migrated and deployed its backend services to AWS container-based infrastructure supported by a standalone database architecture. This transition is expected to improve resource efficiency by up to 80% compared to traditional deployment methods, while also delivering a highly available, secure, and resilient environment capable of supporting global-scale event operations.
In parallel, the company completed integrated smart contract deployment across both backend and frontend systems, ensuring a single, verified contract version for all users. The upgraded blockchain framework now supports both ERC-721 standards for unique digital collectibles and ERC-1155 standards for multi-tier ticketing use cases. This enhanced flexibility allows event organizers to manage a wide range of digital assets—such as VIP, General Admission, and other tiered access products—within a single, cost-efficient smart contract structure.
The BitPay integration significantly expands payment flexibility for Nextech3D.ai’s clients, enabling transactions to be settled in more than 100 supported digital assets. Industry data continues to highlight the operational and cost benefits for merchants adopting blockchain-based payments, including faster settlement times and reduced transaction fees.
With the foundational AWS migration now complete, Nextech3D.ai is turning its focus to the final components of its Q1 blockchain roadmap. These include configurable royalty-splitting functionality designed to automatically redirect 7% to 10% of secondary resale value back to creators and event organizers, as well as custodial resale capabilities. The custodial resale feature will allow tickets to be resold directly from custodial wallets, removing technical barriers for enterprise and non-crypto-native users and further accelerating mainstream adoption of blockchain-enabled event solutions.

      <title>Rio Tinto Nuton and AWS partner as first copper produced at Johnson Camp</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Gunnison Copper Corp Chief Operating Officer Robert Winton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major strategic collaboration between Rio Tinto and Amazon Web Services (AWS), marking a significant milestone for Nuton® Technology. Under the agreement, AWS will become the first customer for Nuton copper following the successful first industrial-scale deployment of the innovative bioleaching technology at Gunnison Copper’s Johnson Camp copper mine in the United States last month.

Winton explained that the agreement positions AWS as both an offtake partner and a technology collaborator. AWS will utilize the first Nuton-produced copper in components for its U.S.-based data centers, while also providing cloud-based data, analytics, and digital infrastructure to help accelerate the optimization and scaling of Nuton’s proprietary bioleaching process at the Johnson Camp Mine.

Copper is a critical material for data center infrastructure, with applications ranging from electrical cabling and busbars to transformer and motor windings, printed circuit boards, and processor heat sinks. Through this partnership, Nuton is leveraging AWS platforms to simulate heap-leach performance and integrate advanced analytics into its decision-support systems. This digital approach enables more efficient acid and water usage while improving predictive models for copper recovery and overall operational performance.

Nuton’s modular bioleaching system extracts copper from primary sulphide material using naturally occurring microorganisms. The modular design, combined with advanced digital tools, allows the technology to be rapidly scaled and tailored to different mineralized bodies, significantly reducing the time from concept to commercial production. The process produces 99.99% pure copper cathode directly at the mine gate, eliminating the need for traditional concentrators, smelters, and refineries, and dramatically shortening the mine-to-market supply chain.

Winton noted that the collaboration with AWS and Nuton represents a fundamentally different and more sustainable approach to copper production. By reducing carbon emissions, lowering water consumption, and producing high-purity copper close to end users, the partnership supports both supply chain resilience and decarbonization objectives. As AWS continues to invest in next-generation, carbon-free energy technologies and expand its data center footprint, access to lower-carbon, domestically produced copper strengthens its ability to scale responsibly while supporting innovation across critical infrastructure.

      <title>Standard Uranium finalizes plans for maiden Corvo drill program in Athabasca Basin</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that drilling and mobilization plans have been finalized for the maiden drill campaign at the Corvo Uranium Project, marking a major exploration milestone for the Company. In addition, Standard Uranium has completed an extensive high-resolution ground gravity survey across the project area, further refining priority drill targets ahead of the upcoming program.

The Corvo Uranium Project is currently subject to a three-year earn-in option agreement with Aventis Energy, under which Aventis may earn up to a 75% interest in the project by funding C$6 million in exploration expenditures over the earn-in period. The inaugural drill program, scheduled to begin in February 2026, represents the first phase of this commitment and a key step in unlocking the project’s exploration potential.

Hillacre explained that final planning is now complete for the winter drill program at Corvo, which is located in the highly prospective eastern Athabasca Basin—one of the world’s most prolific uranium-producing regions. Field crews are expected to mobilize in early February, with the program designed to complete approximately 2,500 to 3,000 metres of diamond drilling across eight to ten drill holes. The campaign will target shallow, high-grade basement-hosted uranium mineralization, with priority targets located at depths of less than 200 to 300 metres below surface.

The drill program will utilize skid-supported diamond drilling and will focus on high-priority targets that have been refined through extensive geophysical surveys completed during 2025. These datasets have significantly improved the Company’s understanding of subsurface structures and uranium-bearing corridors across the project area.

One diamond drill will be dedicated to testing the highest-priority target along the northern electromagnetic corridor, including the Manhattan Showing. Hillacre noted that this showing has never before been drill tested and is coincident with modeled electromagnetic conductors, making it a compelling initial target for discovery. The Company believes this first-ever drill testing of the Manhattan Showing could provide critical insights into the project’s uranium potential and help guide future exploration at Corvo.

      <title>Millennial Potash launches definitive feasibility study at Banio Project in Gabon</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Millennial Potash Chairman Farhad Abasov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the Company has formally initiated a Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) for its flagship Banio Potash Project in Gabon, a major step in advancing the project toward development. To carry out the study, Millennial Potash has engaged a leading global potash-focused consulting firm with extensive experience in the West African Potash Basin to deliver an AACE Class 3 Definitive Feasibility Study.

Abasov explained that the launch of the DFS follows the successful completion of the Company’s most recent Mineral Resource Estimate, which outlined a substantial resource base. The updated estimate defined Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources totaling 2.453 billion tonnes grading 16.6% potassium chloride (KCl), along with an additional Inferred Mineral Resource of 3.559 billion tonnes grading 15.6% KCl. Together with the commencement of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA), the DFS marks Millennial Potash’s transition from an exploration-focused company into the development phase of the Banio project.

Importantly, the Company is fully funded to complete the DFS and all associated technical and trade-off studies. Millennial Potash is partnering with the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), which has committed US$3 million to cover the costs of the feasibility study. Abasov noted that this support significantly de-risks the project at a critical stage and underscores the strategic importance of Banio as a long-life potash asset. Additional details regarding the Mineral Resource Estimate are available in the Company’s news releases dated November 17, 2025, and December 29, 2025.

The DFS will assess the development of a solution mining operation, with a base-case production scenario of 800,000 tonnes per year of muriate of potash (MOP), while also evaluating the potential for significantly higher production rates. A wide range of technical studies are currently underway, including dissolution testing, hydrogeological investigations, salt creep testing, and evaluations of cold versus hot leaching methods. In parallel, the Company is examining port and logistics options, as well as conducting high-purity salt marketing studies to further optimize the project’s economic profile.

The DFS will be conducted alongside the recently announced ESIA, with both studies expected to be completed in the second half of 2026. The results will be submitted to the government of Gabon as part of Millennial Potash’s application for a mining license. In the meantime, the Company plans to continue advancing the project through additional drilling and ongoing technical work as it moves Banio closer to production readiness.

The updated estimate defined Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources totaling 2.453 billion tonnes grading 16.6% potassium chloride (KCl), along with an additional Inferred Mineral Resource of 3.559 billion tonnes grading 15.6% KCl. Together with the commencement of the Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA), the DFS marks Millennial Potash’s transition from an exploration-focused company into the development phase of the Banio project.

Importantly, the Company is fully funded to complete the DFS and all associated technical and trade-off studies. Millennial Potash is partnering with the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC), which has committed US$3 million to cover the costs of the feasibility study. Abasov noted that this support significantly de-risks the project at a critical stage and underscores the strategic importance of Banio as a long-life potash asset. Additional details regarding the Mineral Resource Estimate are available in the Company’s news releases dated November 17, 2025, and December 29, 2025.

The DFS will assess the development of a solution mining operation, with a base-case production scenario of 800,000 tonnes per year of muriate of potash (MOP), while also evaluating the potential for significantly higher production rates. A wide range of technical studies are currently underway, including dissolution testing, hydrogeological investigations, salt creep testing, and evaluations of cold versus hot leaching methods. In parallel, the Company is examining port and logistics options, as well as conducting high-purity salt marketing studies to further optimize the project’s economic profile.

The DFS will be conducted alongside the recently announced ESIA, with both studies expected to be completed in the second half of 2026. The results will be submitted to the government of Gabon as part of Millennial Potash’s application for a mining license. In the meantime, the Company plans to continue advancing the project through additional drilling and ongoing technical work as it moves Banio closer to production readiness.

      <title>Argentina Lithium partners with Lanshen to advance Rincon West DLE project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Argentina Lithium CEO Nikolaos Cacos joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Xi’an Lanshen New Material Technology, a globally recognized leader in Direct Lithium Extraction (DLE) technologies. The strategic collaboration establishes a clear framework for Lanshen to deploy its proprietary DLE systems, pilot plant technology, advanced engineering solutions, and project development expertise to accelerate progress at Argentina Lithium’s flagship Rincon West Lithium Brine Project, moving it toward feasibility study completion and potential future commercial production.

Cacos explained that under the terms of the MOU, Argentina Lithium and Lanshen intend to jointly advance the Rincon West project through all stages of technical, environmental, regulatory, and engineering development. The goal is to deliver a full feasibility-level evaluation for a battery-grade lithium carbonate plant initially designed to produce approximately 5,000 tonnes per year, with clear pathways for future expansion to between 15,000 and 20,000 tonnes annually.

As part of the collaboration, Lanshen is expected to contribute its integrated DLE pilot platform, detailed engineering packages, specialized technical personnel, process design expertise, and equipment quotations required to support feasibility-level engineering studies. Lanshen’s contributions—encompassing technical services, specialized equipment, engineering studies, and pilot plant design—are expected to qualify for equity participation in Argentina Lithium’s wholly owned subsidiary, aligning both parties’ interests in the long-term success of the project.

The partnership represents a significant milestone for Argentina Lithium, following the company’s recently announced NI 43-101-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate at Rincon West. The project is strategically located adjacent to Rio Tinto’s world-class Rincon operation in Salta Province, positioning it within one of the most competitive and technically attractive lithium brine jurisdictions globally.

Argentina Lithium’s broader strategic framework is further strengthened by its existing relationship with Stellantis N.V., which holds a 19.9% interest in ALESA and has secured long-term offtake rights of up to 15,000 tonnes per annum of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE). With the addition of Lanshen as a specialized technical partner, the Rincon West project is being positioned as a next-generation lithium development aligned with the global transition toward cleaner, more efficient, and technologically advanced lithium production methods.

The goal is to deliver a full feasibility-level evaluation for a battery-grade lithium carbonate plant initially designed to produce approximately 5,000 tonnes per year, with clear pathways for future expansion to between 15,000 and 20,000 tonnes annually.

As part of the collaboration, Lanshen is expected to contribute its integrated DLE pilot platform, detailed engineering packages, specialized technical personnel, process design expertise, and equipment quotations required to support feasibility-level engineering studies. Lanshen’s contributions—encompassing technical services, specialized equipment, engineering studies, and pilot plant design—are expected to qualify for equity participation in Argentina Lithium’s wholly owned subsidiary, aligning both parties’ interests in the long-term success of the project.

The partnership represents a significant milestone for Argentina Lithium, following the company’s recently announced NI 43-101-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate at Rincon West. The project is strategically located adjacent to Rio Tinto’s world-class Rincon operation in Salta Province, positioning it within one of the most competitive and technically attractive lithium brine jurisdictions globally.

Argentina Lithium’s broader strategic framework is further strengthened by its existing relationship with Stellantis N.V., which holds a 19.9% interest in ALESA and has secured long-term offtake rights of up to 15,000 tonnes per annum of lithium carbonate equivalent (LCE). With the addition of Lanshen as a specialized technical partner, the Rincon West project is being positioned as a next-generation lithium development aligned with the global transition toward cleaner, more efficient, and technologically advanced lithium production methods.

      <title>Iofina CEO: 2025 revenue to exceed $65m on record iodine output, with more to come</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Iofina PLC (AIM:IOF, OTC:IOFNF) CEO Dr Tom Becker talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's record 2025 performance and strategic growth plans heading into 2026.

The company posted a 17% increase in iodine production year-on-year, achieving double-digit growth across the fourth quarter, second half, and full year. Dr Becker attributed the strong performance to operational discipline, reinvestment into the business, and the commitment of Iofina's employees and partners.

"Iofina was pretty good in 2025," Becker said, highlighting production of 743 metric tons of crystalline iodine, up from 634 metric tons the previous year. The company expects to exceed market expectations with projected revenue of over $65 million and EBITDA above $11 million.

Becker emphasised that the uplift is volume-driven, with iodine pricing remaining steady in a tight range for 
the last three years. Demand for both raw iodine and iodine derivatives remained strong, with Iofina's global customer base growing steadily.

Looking ahead, Iofina is scaling its operations with a new iodine plant under construction in the Permian Basin. The facility, expected online in the second half of 2025, will be the largest in the company's portfolio, capable of producing between 170 and 220 metric tons annually. This expansion is being funded primarily through internal cash flows with minimal debt.

      <title>Rainbow Rare Earths advances pilot plant, DFS on track</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd (LSE:RBW, OTC:RBWRF) CEO George Bennett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong start to 2026, marked by the successful commissioning of its continuous pilot plant and a series of major project optimisations.

Bennett explained that running the pilot plant is a critical step in confirming the final design parameters for the project’s leach circuit, which will feed directly into the definitive feasibility study (DFS) due for completion later this year. The pilot work will also generate material needed to validate the solvent extraction process, which Bennett described as a major de-risking milestone for the project.

A key focus over the past 12 to 18 months has been front-end process optimisation, where around 85% of total capital expenditure is concentrated. Bennett highlighted that Rainbow Rare Earths has reduced leach stages from three to two, cut leach time from 32 hours to just eight hours, halved the number of belt filters, and lowered overall power and heating requirements. As he put it, “these optimisations have led to major savings in capex”, with the company still expecting total capital costs to remain around US$300–325 million, in line with figures published in December 2024.

The CEO also underlined the strategic advantage of Rainbow’s approach, which recovers rare earth elements from phosphate gypsum waste rather than traditional hard-rock mining. This eliminates mining, crushing and milling costs and results in one of the lowest capital intensities in the sector.

With rare earth prices rebounding and US backing already in place, Bennett said investors can expect multiple catalysts over the coming months, including project financing updates, completion of the DFS, and progress toward a final investment decision in late 2026, ahead of planned construction in 2027 and production in 2028.

      <title>M2i Global partners with Titanium X to strengthen U.S. Titanium supply chain</title>
      <description><![CDATA[M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a new strategic collaboration agreement with Australian-based Titanium X, a move that represents a significant step toward advancing domestic refining capabilities and strengthening the secure supply of critical materials vital to U.S. industry and national security.

Rosende explained that under the terms of the agreement, Titanium X and M2i Global will work closely together on the financing, development, and commercialization of Titanium X’s critical mineral assets. The partnership will leverage M2i Global’s global experience in mineral project execution, supply chain development, and strategic partnerships to help accelerate Titanium X’s growth and bring new sources of titanium into the global market. As part of the collaboration, the two companies are currently in discussions to finalize an exclusive supply agreement for titanium concentrate.

Titanium X is actively pursuing the acquisition of titanium mineral supply through a combination of offtake agreements and direct project acquisitions. In parallel, the company is developing a suite of efficient and innovative extraction technologies designed to upgrade ore minerals into higher-value, beneficiated concentrates. The strategy is to complete beneficiation in Australia, before shipping the upgraded concentrate to an M2i-operated facility for further downstream refining. This refining process is expected to incorporate advanced technologies developed in collaboration with the University of California, Berkeley.

The initial focus of Titanium X’s product strategy centers on upgrading ilmenite sourced from mineral sand deposits. Western Australia hosts multiple existing producers that currently market mixed mineral concentrates, as well as several large-scale JORC-compliant resources that have yet to be fully developed. By targeting these underutilized resources, the partnership aims to unlock new supply, add value through processing and refining, and help establish a more resilient, transparent, and secure titanium supply chain aligned with the long-term needs of the United States and its allies.

      <itunes:summary>M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a new strategic collaboration agreement with Australian-based Titanium X, a move that represents a significant step toward advancing domestic refining capabilities and strengthening the secure supply of critical materials vital to U.S. industry and national security.

Rosende explained that under the terms of the agreement, Titanium X and M2i Global will work closely together on the financing, development, and commercialization of Titanium X’s critical mineral assets. The partnership will leverage M2i Global’s global experience in mineral project execution, supply chain development, and strategic partnerships to help accelerate Titanium X’s growth and bring new sources of titanium into the global market. As part of the collaboration, the two companies are currently in discussions to finalize an exclusive supply agreement for titanium concentrate.

Titanium X is actively pursuing the acquisition of titanium mineral supply through a combination of offtake agreements and direct project acquisitions. In parallel, the company is developing a suite of efficient and innovative extraction technologies designed to upgrade ore minerals into higher-value, beneficiated concentrates. The strategy is to complete beneficiation in Australia, before shipping the upgraded concentrate to an M2i-operated facility for further downstream refining. This refining process is expected to incorporate advanced technologies developed in collaboration with the University of California, Berkeley.

The initial focus of Titanium X’s product strategy centers on upgrading ilmenite sourced from mineral sand deposits. Western Australia hosts multiple existing producers that currently market mixed mineral concentrates, as well as several large-scale JORC-compliant resources that have yet to be fully developed. By targeting these underutilized resources, the partnership aims to unlock new supply, add value through processing and refining, and help establish a more resilient, transparent, and secure titanium supply chain aligned with the long-term needs of the United States and its allies.

      <title>Itaconix delivers record $10m+ revenue milestone driven by strong customer momentum</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Itaconix PLC (AIM:ITX, OTCQB:ITXXF) CEO John Shaw talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s record first-half revenue performance, growth drivers, and outlook as it enters 2026 with strong momentum.

Shaw highlighted that Itaconix has delivered its third consecutive record half-year, with revenues rising 59% year-on-year to exceed $10 million for the first time, marking a major milestone for the specialty ingredients company. He said the result reflects years of development work to commercialise a fundamentally new class of chemistry focused on odour-neutralising and scale-inhibiting ingredients.

Shaw explained that demand is being driven by customers seeking safer, high-performance, and sustainable solutions across multiple consumer product categories, including automatic dish detergents, laundry detergents, pet products, and carpet cleaning. He noted that Itaconix PLC’s ingredients are plant-based, non-persistent in the environment, and often reduce production costs for customers while improving cleaning performance.

“What’s really changed,” Shaw said, is that the company now has “a strong balance sheet from our successful fundraise in 2023,” enabling it to build a broader customer base that recognises the value of its technology. He added that improved customer engagement and visibility have also contributed to accelerating adoption, particularly for the company’s scale inhibitor products.

Looking ahead, Shaw said Itaconix PLC is well-positioned operationally, with production capacity in place to meet demand through at least 2027, supported by ongoing investment at its Stratham facility. While he does not expect to repeat last year’s growth rate, Shaw believes the company will continue to grow strongly, stating that “2026 is going to be another milestone year for us” with a robust pipeline of customer projects.

      <title>KEFI Gold eyes main market listing as it transforms into multi-mine producer</title>
      <description><![CDATA[KEFI Gold and Copper PLC (AIM:KEFI, OTC:KFFLF) executive chairman Harry Anagnostaras-Adams talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s transformation into a multi-asset gold and copper developer and the strategic significance of recent milestones.

Anagnostaras-Adams explained how the company has fundamentally changed over the past month, detailed in a recent RNS outlining its progress. He explained that KEFI now has funding in place to develop the Tulu Kapi project in Ethiopia with minimal reliance on shareholders, marking a pivotal step in its evolution.

He said the company has transitioned from being an aspiring developer in a frontier market to an active developer supported by aligned stakeholders, including contractors, local communities and government. 

“The company is a different company today than it was a month ago,” Anagnostaras-Adams noted, highlighting why KEFI felt it was important to clearly communicate the scale of the change.

A central theme of the discussion was KEFI’s move away from single-asset risk. Anagnostaras-Adams explained that the company is positioning itself to have three producing mines, creating diversification and reducing exposure for shareholders. He described this as moving from “a one-legged stool… to be a three-legged stool,” adding that this shift “changes the nature of KEFI risk” for investors.

On KEFI’s Saudi Arabian assets, Harry Anagnostaras-Adams noted the development is being advanced through a joint venture structure that allows the company to benefit from progress without distracting its Ethiopian operating team. Anagnostaras-Adams stressed that KEFI remains focused on delivering Tulu Kapi while leveraging experienced partners abroad.

Finally, he outlined how the company’s rapid growth could support a move to London’s main market in the coming years, reflecting its ambition to match scale with broader market access.

      <title>Power Probe CEO on IPO, innovation &amp; 2026 growth plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Power Probe PLC (AIM:PWR) CEO Chema Garcia talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s London AIM listing, its innovation-driven growth strategy, and key milestones investors should be watching in 2026.

Garcia discussed the company’s decision to list on the London Stock Exchange’s AIM market, despite being a US-based business with the majority of its revenues generated in the US. Garcia explained that AIM offered the most suitable platform for a company of Power Probe's size, while supporting its long-term ambition to fund innovation and expand internationally.

Founded in 1992 in Orange County, California, Power Probe specialises in automotive electrical diagnostic tools designed to simplify complex fault-finding for professional mechanics. Garcia highlighted how the company’s single-hand power circuit probes helped create an entirely new product category, with the business now offering more than 120 products backed by 81 patents. As he put it, “we’re simplifying automotive electrical diagnosis, giving them the right tool… saving time, getting straight to the problem, fixing more cars per day.”

Garcia also outlined how proceeds from the company’s approximately $15 million IPO are being used to support a new manufacturing and R&D facility in Charlotte, North Carolina. This facility brings prototyping, research and production together, allowing faster development of new tools as vehicle technology becomes more complex.

Looking ahead, Garcia said 2026 is expected to be a pivotal year, with plans to launch 15 new products, including tools designed for electric and hybrid vehicles and solutions addressing parasitic battery drain. 

Expansion into the UK and wider European markets also forms a key part of the company’s growth strategy.

      <title>Alusid CEO on global growth, funding and IPO plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Alusid CEO Alasdair Bremner talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest international distribution agreement, funding progress and product innovation strategy.

Alusid, a Frontier IP Group PLC (LSE:FIPP) portfolio company, is continuing to expand its European footprint after announcing its third international distribution agreement, a move Bremner said highlights the growing global appeal of the company’s sustainable tile products. He explained that the latest agreement follows earlier deals in the Netherlands and Italy, further strengthening Alusid’s presence across key European markets.

The new partnership is with Kakelspecialisten in Sweden, part of the Saint-Gobain group, which Bremner described as a strong strategic fit due to its focus on premium products and sustainability. He noted that Kakelspecialisten’s leadership in carbon transparency aligns closely with Alusid’s own environmental goals, adding that “one of the things that really sealed the deal for us… is their leadership on sustainability.” 

Under the agreement, Kakelspecialisten will stock Alusid’s Principal wall tiles and Mas floor tiles, alongside new ranges currently in development. Bremner confirmed that the Ashton range is expected to launch shortly, with additional products being developed with partners in the Netherlands.

During the interview, Bremner also discussed Alusid’s recent £500,000 pre-IPO funding round. He said the capital will be used to prepare the company for a planned IPO, accelerate new product range development and expand distribution into additional European territories. Funding will also support process improvements at the company’s Spanish manufacturing operations and ongoing research and development work in the UK.

Looking ahead, Bremner outlined early-stage innovation work on new geopolymer processes that could open up further product segments, including moulded architectural features, while reinforcing Alusid’s sustainability credentials.

      <title>Genflow Biosciences CEO: key catalysts for 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s key programs and upcoming catalysts as it enters what management expects to be a pivotal year.

Leire discussed why 2026 is shaping up as “a year of catalysts” for the company, with particular focus on the dog ageing trial, progress in MASH, and the group’s approach to partnerships and licensing.

Leire explained that the dog longevity study is the nearest catalyst, with the trial expected to be unblinded shortly and early efficacy readouts anticipated in the near term. While safety has already been confirmed, the study remains blinded, meaning efficacy results are still unknown. The first data will focus on biological age, measured using a methylation clock, with a more detailed analysis of muscle biopsies and mitochondrial function to follow. According to Leire, “this trial could be very important for our shareholders, because it will trigger a deal with an animal health company bringing non-dilutive money in the company.”

The interview also explored Genflow’s repositioning in MASH toward advanced fibrosis and the prevention of hepatocellular carcinoma. Leire highlighted the significant unmet need in late-stage disease, noting that recent therapies target earlier stages and leave patients with advanced fibrosis facing limited options. He said the company’s preclinical data have been encouraging and form a key part of the IND package, helping differentiate Genflow from existing and emerging treatments.

In addition, Leire discussed the company’s licensing strategy, including plans to out-license the dog program to an animal health specialist and pursue early-stage partnerships for glaucoma, while retaining focus on age-related conditions such as sarcopenia. With meetings planned during JPMorgan week, Leire said the company is seeking non-dilutive capital and strategic validation as it moves forward.

      <title>Santhera Pharmaceuticals expands AGAMREE to APAC in $205m deal with Nxera</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Santhera Pharmaceuticals (SIX:SANN) executive vice president for corporate planning and business development Andreas Missy talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a major licensing agreement signed with Nxera for the development, manufacturing, and commercialisation of AGAMREE in Japan, South Korea, Australia, and New Zealand.

Missy explained that AGAMREE, Santhera’s treatment for Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy (DMD), is already available in the US, EU, UK, Canada, and China. The deal with Nxera is valued at up to $205 million, including a $40 million upfront payment - $30 million in cash and $10 million as an equity investment priced at a 20% premium. Santhera is also eligible for up to $165 million in regulatory and sales milestones, plus double-digit tiered royalties on net sales.

“Nxera is a technology-powered biopharma company with the ability to execute, as shown by its commercialisation of PIVLAZ,” said Missy, citing the company’s regional infrastructure and experience from its acquisition of Idorsia’s APAC operations.

Missy noted a bridging clinical study may be required in Japan, and Nxera will be responsible for regulatory filings and regional manufacturing setup. He added that Japan alone represents a DMD patient population of over 2,000, with a high percentage already treated with steroids.

Missy also outlined Santhera’s broader global expansion strategy, which includes recent deals in Turkey, the GCC region, India, and Russia, and plans for further licensing in markets like Latin America.

      <title>Solvonis CEO on US patent win and PTSD drug progress</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Solvonis Therapeutics PLC (LSE:SVNS) CEO Anthony Tennyson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest US patent allowance, progress within its PTSD drug development program, and what investors should expect during a potentially catalyst-rich 2026.

Tennyson explained that the newly allowed US patent for the SVN-SDN-14 program represents a significant step in building long-term value. He said the patent provides “composition of matter protection over a new chemical series within our PTSD program,” strengthening the intellectual property foundation as the company approaches lead candidate selection. According to Tennyson, this protection improves the commercial quality of the asset while extending its future value window, without altering near-term development timelines.

The CEO outlined the company’s focus on treating post-traumatic stress disorder, noting it affects around 13 million people across the major pharmaceutical markets and currently lacks a specifically licensed medicine. Solvonis Therapeutics PLC is pursuing a differentiated approach, concentrating on mechanisms that support therapeutic engagement through pro-social neurochemistry rather than symptom suppression alone.

Looking ahead to Q1 2026, Tennyson highlighted the milestones investors should monitor, including completion of in-vivo work, confirmation of brain activity, narrowing the candidate set, and final lead selection. He described this as “a key inflection point as the program transitions from discovery to IND enabling work.”

Beyond PTSD, Tennyson discussed broader pipeline progress across addiction and psychiatric indications. 
He said 2026 could be a catalyst-rich year, with advancement of clinical programs, potential partnering discussions, and continued progress within the company’s discovery engine.

Looking ahead to Q1 2026, Tennyson highlighted the milestones investors should monitor, including completion of in-vivo work, confirmation of brain activity, narrowing the candidate set, and final lead selection. He described this as “a key inflection point as the program transitions from discovery to IND enabling work.”

Beyond PTSD, Tennyson discussed broader pipeline progress across addiction and psychiatric indications. 
He said 2026 could be a catalyst-rich year, with advancement of clinical programs, potential partnering discussions, and continued progress within the company’s discovery engine.

      <itunes:subtitle>Solvonis Therapeutics PLC (LSE:SVNS) CEO Anthony Tennyson talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest US patent allowance, progress within its PTSD drug development program, and what investors should expect during a potentially catalyst-rich 2026.

Tennyson explained that the newly allowed US patent for the SVN-SDN-14 program represents a significant step in building long-term value. He said the patent provides “composition of matter protection over a new chemical series within our PTSD program,” strengthening the intellectual property foundation as the company approaches lead candidate selection. According to Tennyson, this protection improves the commercial quality of the asset while extending its future value window, without altering near-term development timelines.

      <title>Immunic CEO on key 2025 highlights and 2026 milestones</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX) CEO Dr Daniel Vitt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s major milestones in 2025 and key expectations for 2026. He highlighted the significance of the phase 2 CALLIPER study, which demonstrated a 31% reduction in confirmed disability worsening in patients with primary progressive multiple sclerosis (MS), and a 34% reduction in those without baseline gadolinium lesions. According to Vitt, this points to a “neuroprotective effect” of vidofludimus calcium.

He also noted consistent long-term results from the phase 2 EMPhASIS study, where 92.3% of relapsing-remitting MS patients remained free of 12-week confirmed disability worsening after 144 weeks. Only 13.8% of in total 29 disability events were progression independent of relapse activity (PIRA), supporting the drug’s potential effect on progression regardless of relapse activity.

Beyond MS, Vitt said Immunic has strengthened its patent position for vidofludimus calcium, with potential exclusivity to 2041 in key markets. He also discussed early findings on IMU-856, which showed increases in natural GLP-1 levels—suggesting gut health benefits and potential links to weight management.

Looking ahead, the company expects top-line data from the phase 3 ENSURE trials by the end of 2026. Vitt said, “That’s a big step for the company forward to getting vidofludimus calcium ready to be launched and ready to be submitted for approval to the FDA.”

      <title>HIVE Digital reports strong December bitcoin output, advances global expansion</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hive Digital Technologies Executive Chairman Frank Holmes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to highlight the company’s strong Bitcoin production performance in December 2025, underscoring significant year-over-year growth, continued quarter-over-quarter momentum, and consistent month-over-month operational strength, despite seasonal weather challenges affecting parts of the Northern Hemisphere.

During December, HIVE produced a total of 306 Bitcoin, representing a 197% increase compared to the same period last year. This achievement came even as global Bitcoin mining difficulty rose approximately 40% year-over-year, emphasizing the company’s operational efficiency and expanding mining capacity. HIVE also delivered solid sequential growth, with production increasing 6% month-over-month and 23% quarter-over-quarter, reflecting rising hashrate levels and continued improvements in fleet efficiency.

The company averaged approximately 9.9 Bitcoin per day during the month, supported by an average hashrate of 23.3 exahash per second, with peak performance reaching 24 EH/s. While extreme cold weather in certain Northern Hemisphere regions temporarily constrained peak hashrate availability, HIVE’s geographically diversified operating model helped mitigate these impacts. With operations spread across three continents, nine time zones, and five languages, the company was able to maintain high uptime, operational resilience, and consistent production levels.

Looking ahead, Holmes also outlined HIVE’s plans for further expansion of its renewable-powered infrastructure. The company intends to develop an additional 100 megawatts of hydroelectric-powered data center capacity at its Yguazú campus in Paraguay, with full commissioning targeted for the third quarter of calendar year 2026. Long-lead-time substation components have already been ordered, positioning the project to stay on schedule.

HIVE plans to deploy the new capacity under a disciplined return-on-invested-capital framework, with a focus on optimizing free cash flow from its green-energy-powered data center assets. Upon completion of the Yguazú expansion, HIVE’s total renewable energy footprint is expected to reach approximately 540 megawatts across its operations in Paraguay, Canada, and Sweden, reinforcing the company’s commitment to sustainable, large-scale digital infrastructure growth.

      <title>Seeing Machines CEO on accelerated royalty payment &amp; profit path</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Seeing Machines Ltd (AIM:SEE, OTC:SEEMF) CEO Paul McGlone talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest announcement regarding an accelerated lump sum royalty payment of about US$14.1 million from a major automotive customer, its improving financial position, and key technology demonstrations at CES.

McGlone explained that the payment follows a material change to an automotive production program, enabling Seeing Machines to trigger contractual guarantees tied to minimum volumes or absolute payments. As a result, the company has negotiated the full value of expected royalties, discounted over five years, to be received as a lump sum and recognised this month. He described the outcome as “a very good deal for us,” noting that the revenue will flow directly through to profit and cash.

Importantly, McGlone emphasised that the payment is incremental to Seeing Machines’ existing trajectory. He confirmed that the company achieved a cash-flow breakeven run rate by the end of December, stating that “the December month was a cash flow positive and profitable month, the first for us.” He added that Seeing Machines is highly confident of profitability in the third and fourth quarters, meaning the entire second half is expected to be profitable, even without factoring in the accelerated royalty payment.

The discussion also covered Seeing Machines’ presence at CES, where the company is demonstrating advanced 3D interior perception mapping technology with partners including Valeo. McGlone highlighted growing opportunities across software-defined vehicles, robotics and autonomous vehicle applications, as well as progress in intoxication detection technology and future mobility initiatives.

      <title>Arizona Gold &amp; Silver extends high-grade gold zone at Perry discovery in Arizona</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arizona Gold and Silver CEO Mike Stark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the receipt of new assay results from the company’s latest diamond drill hole, PC25-158, at the Philadelphia Project in Arizona. The results further confirm and extend the scale of high-grade gold mineralization at the Perry Discovery, marking another important step in defining the potential of the project.

Hole PC25-158 successfully extended the wide zone of high-grade gold mineralization by approximately 110 metres to the north of previously reported hole PC25-156. The company reported a standout intercept of 4.33 metres grading 19.37 grams per tonne gold and 19.36 grams per tonne silver, starting at a downhole depth of 290.09 metres. These results continue to demonstrate the strength and continuity of mineralization within the Perry system.

Stark told Proactive that the Perry Discovery remains consistently well mineralized and has now been extended a further 60 metres north beyond the last reported drilling. He added that observed vein textures suggest the drilling has only reached the upper portion of the boiling zone of the mineralizing system, indicating strong potential for improved grades and wider mineralization at depth.

Drilling is ongoing, with hole PC25-159 currently in progress and stepping out an additional 60 metres to the north. The company is eager to receive results from this hole, which will provide further insight into the continuity and scale of the mineralized structure.

Arizona Gold and Silver plans to continue expanding the strike length of the Perry Discovery both to the north and south, with the objective of demonstrating the full scale of the mineralized structure. The company notes that the structure extends for more than three kilometres and lies entirely within its property boundaries. Management is focused on determining how much of this extensive structure hosts significant gold mineralization.

Stark emphasized that the potential scale of the Perry Discovery—both along strike and at depth—is highly significant. With drilling ongoing and strong results continuing to emerge, the company believes the Philadelphia Project is shaping up to be a compelling gold discovery with substantial exploration upside.

      <itunes:summary>Arizona Gold and Silver CEO Mike Stark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the receipt of new assay results from the company’s latest diamond drill hole, PC25-158, at the Philadelphia Project in Arizona. The results further confirm and extend the scale of high-grade gold mineralization at the Perry Discovery, marking another important step in defining the potential of the project.

Hole PC25-158 successfully extended the wide zone of high-grade gold mineralization by approximately 110 metres to the north of previously reported hole PC25-156. The company reported a standout intercept of 4.33 metres grading 19.37 grams per tonne gold and 19.36 grams per tonne silver, starting at a downhole depth of 290.09 metres. These results continue to demonstrate the strength and continuity of mineralization within the Perry system.

Stark told Proactive that the Perry Discovery remains consistently well mineralized and has now been extended a further 60 metres north beyond the last reported drilling. He added that observed vein textures suggest the drilling has only reached the upper portion of the boiling zone of the mineralizing system, indicating strong potential for improved grades and wider mineralization at depth.

Drilling is ongoing, with hole PC25-159 currently in progress and stepping out an additional 60 metres to the north. The company is eager to receive results from this hole, which will provide further insight into the continuity and scale of the mineralized structure.

Arizona Gold and Silver plans to continue expanding the strike length of the Perry Discovery both to the north and south, with the objective of demonstrating the full scale of the mineralized structure. The company notes that the structure extends for more than three kilometres and lies entirely within its property boundaries. Management is focused on determining how much of this extensive structure hosts significant gold mineralization.

Stark emphasized that the potential scale of the Perry Discovery—both along strike and at depth—is highly significant. With drilling ongoing and strong results continuing to emerge, the company believes the Philadelphia Project is shaping up to be a compelling gold discovery with substantial exploration upside.

      <title>Aftermath Silver completes Berenguela acquisition, advances Phase 3 drilling program</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has successfully completed the acquisition of the Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project. With the final payment obligation now fulfilled under the acquisition agreement between Aftermath Silver and SSR Mining, the transfer of ownership has been completed and Aftermath now holds a 100% interest in the Berenguela project.

Rushton told Proactive that Berenguela represents Aftermath Silver’s flagship asset and a cornerstone of the company’s growth strategy. He explained that recent drilling programs have been primarily focused on infilling the historic mineral resource estimate (MRE), with the goal of upgrading inferred resources into the measured and indicated categories. This work supports a stronger technical foundation for future economic and development studies.

A new mineral resource estimate was published in December, incorporating results from recent drilling and providing an updated view of the project’s scale and grade potential. Building on this progress, Aftermath has now launched its Phase 3 drilling program at Berenguela, which is designed to advance the project on multiple fronts.

The current drilling campaign is focused on three key objectives. First, the company is targeting untested areas in the eastern and southeastern zones of the known mineralization, where both historic drilling and the 2024–2025 drill program encountered notably high copper grades. These areas are considered highly prospective for resource expansion.

Second, drilling is being carried out in areas identified as potential initial mining zones, with the intent of supporting future mine planning and complementary technical studies. Finally, subject to the completion of permitting, which Rushton noted is well advanced, the company plans to test the Southwest Intrusive target, a priority exploration area with potential to further enhance the overall resource base.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai expands capabilities and growth prospects through KraftyLab integration</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg and KraftyLab CEO Boris Sotnikov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that Nextech3D.ai has officially closed its acquisition of KraftyLab following the successful completion of due diligence. The transaction represents a significant strategic milestone for Nextech3D.ai as it strengthens its position in the enterprise segment of the rapidly growing AI-powered event and engagement market.

Sotnikov explained that KraftyLab brings a strong and diversified roster of blue-chip enterprise customers, including global technology leaders such as Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Oracle, Yelp, ZoomInfo, Spotify, and Meta, among others. He emphasized that this customer base reflects the credibility and effectiveness of KraftyLab’s engagement solutions within the enterprise ecosystem. In addition, KraftyLab has generated approximately $1.2 million in year-to-date 2025 revenue, supported by robust gross margins of roughly 72%, underscoring the scalability, efficiency, and profitability of its platform.

Gappelberg told Proactive that a key near-term initiative following the acquisition will be the integration of Nextech3D.ai’s proprietary ARitize3D technology into KraftyLab’s product offering. As part of this effort, Nextech3D.ai plans to convert KraftyLab’s top five best-selling kits into high-fidelity 3D models that will be embedded directly into the KraftyLab sales and purchasing experience.

With this enhancement, corporate HR managers and team-building buyers will be able to interact with products in a more immersive way. By clicking a “View in 3D” option, customers can see kits virtually placed on their own desks using augmented reality, delivering an intuitive, interactive, and Amazon-style shopping experience that aligns with modern enterprise buyer expectations.

According to Gappelberg, the combined Nextech3D.ai and KraftyLab platform is well positioned to drive higher average contract values, improve customer retention, and foster deeper, longer-term relationships with enterprise clients. The integration is also expected to unlock new monetization opportunities across a broad range of event formats, including in-person, virtual, and hybrid experiences.

By strengthening its foothold in the enterprise market through the KraftyLab acquisition, Nextech3D.ai aims to accelerate revenue growth, broaden its customer reach, and reinforce its position as a leading provider of AI-powered event, engagement, and experiential technology solutions.

The integration is also expected to unlock new monetization opportunities across a broad range of event formats, including in-person, virtual, and hybrid experiences.

By strengthening its foothold in the enterprise market through the KraftyLab acquisition, Nextech3D.ai aims to accelerate revenue growth, broaden its customer reach, and reinforce its position as a leading provider of AI-powered event, engagement, and experiential technology solutions.

      <itunes:subtitle>Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg and KraftyLab CEO Boris Sotnikov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that Nextech3D.ai has officially closed its acquisition of KraftyLab following the successful completion of due diligence. The transaction represents a significant strategic milestone for Nextech3D.ai as it strengthens its position in the enterprise segment of the rapidly growing AI-powered event and engagement market.

Sotnikov explained that KraftyLab brings a strong and diversified roster of blue-chip enterprise customers, including global technology leaders such as Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Oracle, Yelp, ZoomInfo, Spotify, and Meta, among others. He emphasized that this customer base reflects the credibility and effectiveness of KraftyLab’s engagement solutions within the enterprise ecosystem. In addition, KraftyLab has generated approximately $1.2 million in year-to-date 2025 revenue, supported by robust gross margins of roughly 72%, underscoring the scalability, efficiency, and profitability of its platform.

Gappelberg told Proactive that a key near-term initiative following the acquisition will be the integration of Nextech3D.ai’s proprietary ARitize3D technology into KraftyLab’s product offering. As part of this effort, Nextech3D.ai plans to convert KraftyLab’s top five best-selling kits into high-fidelity 3D models that will be embedded directly into the KraftyLab sales and purchasing experience.

With this enhancement, corporate HR managers and team-building buyers will be able to interact with products in a more immersive way.

      <title>Bitcoin volatility drops below Nvidia, says Bitwise, as it predicts new highs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bitwise Asset Management European head Bradley Duke talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about Bitcoin’s recent price movements, the outlook for 2026, and whether the traditional four-year cycle has now been disrupted.

Duke stated that the historical four-year cycle, marked by three bullish years followed by one down year, appears to have ended. Despite Bitcoin reaching an all-time high of over $126,000 in October 2025, the market closed the year down 4%, which Duke attributed to profit-taking by early holders, a phenomenon he referred to as a “silent IPO.”

He explained that institutional adoption through Bitcoin ETPs was a key driver in 2025 and continues to be influential, with Bitcoin ETP inflows even surpassing those of gold. This trend, alongside ongoing macroeconomic tailwinds and the global expansion of money supply, is expected to continue supporting Bitcoin’s upward movement.

Duke also highlighted Bitwise’s forecast that Bitcoin volatility will remain below that of leading tech stocks like Nvidia throughout 2026. "The volatility of Bitcoin currently is already, on a rolling average, fallen below Nvidia," he noted.

While Bitwise has not set a specific price target for 2026, Duke said the firm is confident Bitcoin will reach new all-time highs this year.

      <title>Fineqia&apos;s Matteo Greco on crypto ETP trends, altcoin resilience</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fineqia International Inc senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive about how crypto exchange-traded products continued to attract strong institutional demand in 2025, even as digital asset prices declined.

Following the release of Fineqia's December report on crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs), Greco explained that 2025 reinforced trends first seen in 2024, highlighting ETPs as an effective vehicle for traditional investors seeking exposure to digital assets. Despite a negative market trend in the second half of the year, total inflows were close to levels seen during the prior year, which had benefited from strong price action and the approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs in the US.

He noted that institutional interest broadened beyond Bitcoin during the year, with Ethereum ETPs recording disproportionately strong inflows relative to market capitalisation. Greco said this reflected a natural progression in investor behaviour, similar to patterns previously observed in the native crypto market. “It’s definitely positive because it shows that demand is not limited to Bitcoin, but it’s growing for the asset class in general on an institutional point of view,” he said.

The discussion also touched on fourth-quarter weakness, which Greco attributed to a mix of seasonal portfolio adjustments, profit-taking, and increased macroeconomic and geopolitical caution. Despite this, altcoin ETPs proved resilient, supported by new ETF launches in the US that generated fresh inflows.

Looking ahead, Greco suggested short-term ETP demand may remain sensitive to price action, but said longer-term sentiment remained constructive as issuers continue to expand product offerings across the US and Europe.

      <title>Tooru CEO on 2025 highlights and upcoming milestones</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tooru PLC (AIM:TOO) CEO Scott Livingston talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategy to expand its challenger health and wellness brands, particularly OAF, Pulsin and Juvela. He began by highlighting recent distribution wins with Tesco and the Co-Op, noting that OAF has launched in Tesco and Pulsin’s footprint has grown. 

"We have two really exciting challenger brands that we really think we can grow here," Livingston said, adding that 2026 will be focused on expanding distribution and closing the chapter on a solid 2025.

Livingston outlined a key operational shift as Pulsin transitions to contract manufacturing and co-locates with Juvela in Wales. This move is expected to improve margins and support scalability, with Tooru also maintaining strict standards around ingredient sourcing and manufacturing processes.

The CEO also discussed the divestment of Market Rocket, explaining the need to streamline operations and focus solely on brand development to better align with shareholder expectations.

A recently extended facility from Shawbrook Bank provides additional capital to support growth, particularly for OAF, while keeping Pulsin's financials separate to preserve clarity around performance.

Looking ahead, Livingston pointed to key retail wins, product launches and liquidity improvements as milestones to watch in 2026.

      <title>Connecting Excellence CEO on unique BTC-denominated convertible bond, Bitcoin outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Connecting Excellence Group Plc (AQSE:XCE) CEO Scott Ellam talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategic expansion into Bitcoin-backed financial instruments and its long-term treasury ambitions. 

In the interview, Ellam introduced the XCE BTC Bond, which he described as the first of its kind, highlighting its “true bitcoin denomination” feature and a refix mechanism designed to protect both shareholders and bondholders during market fluctuations.

He explained that the bond’s conversion price mirrors Bitcoin’s price, allowing for value preservation and flexibility even during market volatility. “We've designed them to be beneficial for the bondholders, the shareholders and the business going forward,” Ellam said.

Ellam also discussed the group’s treasury strategy, confirming that Connecting Excellence now holds 41.36 Bitcoin on its balance sheet, with a long-term goal of acquiring 1,000. The company intends to purchase Bitcoin with all available cash and on an ongoing basis, regardless of short-term price movements. Ellam cited a long-term compound annual growth expectation of 30% over the next decade.

He referenced broader institutional momentum, including BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF and remarks from its CEO Larry Fink about potential nation-state adoption. Ellam suggested that such developments would significantly impact price trajectory and global adoption trends.

He explained that the bond’s conversion price mirrors Bitcoin’s price, allowing for value preservation and flexibility even during market volatility. “We&apos;ve designed them to be beneficial for the bondholders, the shareholders and the business going forward,” Ellam said.

Ellam also discussed the group’s treasury strategy, confirming that Connecting Excellence now holds 41.36 Bitcoin on its balance sheet, with a long-term goal of acquiring 1,000. The company intends to purchase Bitcoin with all available cash and on an ongoing basis, regardless of short-term price movements. Ellam cited a long-term compound annual growth expectation of 30% over the next decade.

He referenced broader institutional momentum, including BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF and remarks from its CEO Larry Fink about potential nation-state adoption. Ellam suggested that such developments would significantly impact price trajectory and global adoption trends.

      <title>Tonix highlights pathway for potential single-dose, seasonal protection against Lyme Disease</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holdings CEO Dr. Seth Lederman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share an update on the company’s TNX-4800 program, underscoring its potential to address a significant unmet need in the prevention of Lyme disease. TNX-4800 is a long-acting human monoclonal antibody designed to target outer surface protein A of Borrelia burgdorferi, the bacterium responsible for causing Lyme disease in humans.

Lederman explained that TNX-4800 is being developed as a seasonal, once-yearly preventive treatment. The program envisions a single subcutaneous injection administered in the spring, providing protection through the fall and covering the entire tick season in the United States. He noted that there are currently no FDA-approved vaccines or prophylactic therapies available in the U.S. to prevent Lyme disease, highlighting the importance of developing new preventive options.

According to the company, TNX-4800 is designed to deliver near-immediate immunity following a single administration, which differentiates it from Lyme disease vaccine candidates currently in development that typically require multiple doses over time to achieve protective immunity. Tonix believes this rapid-onset protection could make TNX-4800 a convenient and effective solution for individuals living in or traveling to regions where Lyme disease is prevalent.

Tonix plans to advance the program toward the production of investigational product manufactured under Good Manufacturing Practices and plans to meet with the FDA in 2026 to propose a CHIM (controlled human infection model) study. This would involve volunteers receiving TNX-4800 or a control, then being exposed to Lyme-infected ticks in a controlled environment to test efficacy.Pending approval, the company aims to accelerate development and move toward broader field trials. 

Lyme disease remains the most common vector-borne infection in the United States, with reported cases increasing each year. The disease is most prevalent in the Northeast, mid-Atlantic, and upper Midwest regions and is transmitted through the bite of infected Ixodes ticks. Early symptoms often include fever, headache, fatigue, and the characteristic erythema migrans rash. If left untreated, the infection can progress and spread to the joints, heart, and nervous system, potentially resulting in serious and long-term health complications.

Lederman said Tonix believes TNX-4800 has the potential to significantly reduce the burden of Lyme disease by offering a differentiated, single-dose, seasonal preventive approach in a market with limited existing options.

      <title>American Resources secures $200M facility to scale ReElement’s U.S. critical minerals platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp CEO Mark Jensen joined Steve Darling to announce that the company’s subsidiary, ReElement Technologies, has closed a $200 million strategic equity facility with Transition Equity Partners, LLC (TEP). The company said the significant investment is expected to accelerate the commercial deployment of ReElement’s proprietary, multi-mineral refining platform, beginning with the expansion and buildout of its Marion, Indiana processing facility to meet growing near-term domestic demand.

Jensen explained that American Resources and Transition Equity Partners plan to work together to strategically develop additional processing and refining facilities across the United States, as well as in select international markets. 

The Marion facility will initially focus on the processing and refining of light rare earth elements, heavy rare earth elements, and other minerals critical to U.S. defense and advanced technology applications. With the backing of TEP, ReElement expects the Marion site to scale to an initial production capacity exceeding 10,000 metric tons per annum of refined critical minerals. 

ReElement’s broader objective is to build large-scale critical mineral processing and refining capabilities that strengthen and secure U.S. supply chains. The company recently announced a partnership with the U.S. Department of War and Vulcan Elements to support the development of a fully vertically integrated, domestic rare earth magnet supply chain. 

Beyond rare earth magnets, ReElement’s proprietary chromatographic refining platform is uniquely positioned to address U.S. demand for heavy rare earth elements and other critical defense materials that are not currently produced at scale domestically. These include yttrium, gadolinium, germanium, antimony, terbium, dysprosium, and other essential minerals that underpin U.S. energy systems, advanced technologies, and national defense.

      <title>OKYO Pharma appoints Ophthalmology veteran Robert Dempsey as new CEO</title>
      <description><![CDATA[OKYO Pharma’s new CEO Robert Dempsey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the leadership transition and the company’s strategic direction. As part of the change, former CEO Gary Jacob, Ph.D., will assume the role of Chief Development Officer while continuing to serve on OKYO’s Board of Directors, ensuring continuity across leadership and development initiatives.

Dempsey brings more than 20 years of domestic and global experience in the ophthalmology sector, spanning drug development, commercialization, and strategic transactions. He told Proactive that his background includes serving as Group Vice President and Head of Global Ophthalmology at Shire, prior to its acquisition by Takeda. During his tenure, Dempsey played a pivotal role in one of only three major ophthalmology transactions over the past two decades, helping to close a deal involving more than $3.4 billion in upfront consideration for Xiidra® (5%). That asset was later acquired by Bausch + Lomb for $1.7 billion.

Beyond his corporate leadership experience, Dempsey emphasized the strength of his professional network within the eye-care community. He has served as a CEO and independent director across multiple ophthalmic companies, giving him broad insight into both early-stage development and later-stage commercialization strategies.

OKYO Pharma described the leadership change as a natural evolution that positions the company for its next phase of growth. With Jacob transitioning into a development-focused role, the company aims to accelerate progress on its lead asset, urcosimod, which is being developed for the treatment of neuropathic corneal pain and other ocular inflammatory disorders.

Dempsey noted that his focus as CEO will be on advancing urcosimod through key clinical milestones while leveraging his industry experience to guide strategic partnerships and long-term value creation. The company believes this leadership structure strengthens execution capabilities and aligns OKYO Pharma for meaningful progress in 2026 and beyond.

      <title>Avalon GloboCare director unveils RPM AI studio</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Avalon GloboCare Corp (NASDAQ:ALBT) director Michael Mathews talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the development of RPM’s innovative AI video production platform, Catch-Up. Mathews, who also serves as CEO of RPM, described the platform as the first of its kind - capable of producing videos automatically using generative AI and large language models.

The system is designed to support content creators, particularly podcasters, by automating video production. According to Mathews, “This is a system that will scrape a YouTube video... and then through intelligent large language model prompting, you create opening and closing commentary.” This is delivered using a personal avatar and published across social media platforms based on a schedule.

Mathews outlined a two-phase marketing plan. The first involves targeting podcasters and creators via email by content verticals such as politics, pop culture, and finance. The second phase will be a YouTube video campaign planned for mid-2026.

He also emphasized the scalability of the platform, highlighting a goal of securing several hundred licenses in the first six months and thousands by the end of the first year. A provisional patent has already been filed with the USPTO.

Looking ahead, RPM is planning a personalization phase to expand scraping capabilities across multiple platforms and is open to acquiring synergistic AI products.

      <title>Tonix licenses global rights to novel non-opioid neuropathic pain drug TNX-4900</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holdings CEO Dr. Seth Lederman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has secured exclusive worldwide licensing rights to TNX-4900, a highly selective small-molecule Sigma-1 receptor (S1R) antagonist with demonstrated analgesic activity across multiple preclinical models of neuropathic pain.

Lederman explained that Sigma-1 receptor antagonism has attracted growing scientific and clinical interest as a promising new class of non-opioid, non-addictive pain therapies. Tonix has leveraged computer-aided and artificial intelligence–driven drug design approaches to develop this next generation of selective S1R antagonists. TNX-4900 has demonstrated robust and durable pain-relief activity in several validated neuropathic pain models, alongside an encouraging preclinical safety profile.

TNX-4900 emerged from a structure-based drug design program led by researchers at Rutgers University, which generated a series of potent and selective triazole-based Sigma-1 receptor antagonists. The compound binds to the human Sigma-1 receptor with nanomolar affinity (Ki = 7.5 nM), exhibits greater than 100-fold selectivity over the Sigma-2 receptor, and shows strong penetration of the blood–brain barrier.

In addition, TNX-4900 demonstrates favorable pharmacokinetic characteristics, including attractive absorption, distribution, metabolism, and elimination (ADME) properties and an oral bioavailability of approximately 28%. These attributes support its potential suitability for chronic oral administration in pain indications.

In preclinical models of both diabetic neuropathy and chemotherapy-induced neuropathic pain, TNX-4900 produced significant and sustained reductions in pain-related behaviours following both acute and repeated dosing. Importantly, these analgesic effects were observed without evidence of tolerance development or motor impairment, key limitations associated with many existing pain therapies.

Tonix plans to advance TNX-4900 through expanded pharmacokinetic, formulation, and safety studies as part of an IND-enabling development program. According to Lederman, the company believes TNX-4900 represents a compelling opportunity to address a large unmet medical need with a differentiated, non-opioid therapeutic option for patients suffering from neuropathic pain.

      <title>Arrow Exploration brings Mateguafa HZ7 well online, delivers strong initial production in Colombia</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arrow Exploration CEO Marshall Abbott joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an operational update on activity at the Mateguafa Attic field, located on the Tapir Block in Colombia’s prolific Llanos Basin, where Arrow holds a 50% beneficial interest. The update highlighted the successful drilling, completion, and initial production performance of the Mateguafa HZ7 (M-HZ7) horizontal well.

Abbott confirmed that the M-HZ7 well was spud on November 22, 2025, and reached its target depth on December 4, 2025. The well was drilled safely, on time, and on budget to a total measured depth of 14,253 feet, corresponding to a true vertical depth of 8,440 feet. During drilling, the well intersected multiple hydrocarbon-bearing intervals, reinforcing the prospectivity of the Mateguafa field.

The company has now brought the M-HZ7 well onto production from the Carbonera C9 formation. The well includes approximately 4,053 feet of horizontal oil pay within a clean sandstone reservoir exhibiting strong reservoir characteristics, including an average porosity of 23% and high resistivity readings. Following perforation, an electric submersible pump (ESP) was installed to support production operations.

In addition to the C9 interval, the well also encountered approximately 20 feet of net oil pay, on a true vertical depth basis, within the Carbonera C7 formation, providing further upside potential from stacked reservoirs in the field.
The M-HZ7 well was initially placed on production at a heavily restricted setting, using a 25/128 choke and a pump frequency of 30 Hz. At these conservative conditions, the well is producing approximately 1,694 barrels of oil per day on a gross basis, or 847 barrels of oil per day net to Arrow. The produced oil has an API gravity of 30.6°, with a low water cut of approximately 4%, primarily attributed to completion fluids and minor formation water. Abbott noted that the well continues to clean up and that performance will be closely monitored as operating parameters are gradually optimized.
Abbott also provided updates on the broader Mateguafa development program, including activity at the Mateguafa-6, Mateguafa-5, and Mateguafa-8 wells. Following the tie-in and production start-up of the M-8 well, Arrow plans to drill the Mateguafa-9 (M-9) well. This well is designed primarily as a delineation and water disposal well to support ongoing development across the Mateguafa area.

The M-9 well will be the final well drilled under Arrow’s 2025 drilling program. It is planned as a large step-out well located outside the currently interpreted limits of the reservoir. While its primary purpose is water disposal, Abbott noted that the well could potentially become a producer if the reservoir extends beyond current seismic interpretations.

After completing the M-9 well, Arrow intends to continue drilling additional horizontal and vertical development wells within the Mateguafa field before moving the rig to the Icaco prospect, where the company plans to drill its first exploration well at that location.

      <title>U.S. Gold raises $31.2M in private placement to advance CK gold project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[U.S. Gold Corp. Chairman Luke Norman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s financing activities following the successful closing of a private placement that raised approximately $31.2 million in gross proceeds. The financing represents a significant step forward as the company advances toward development of its flagship CK Gold Project in Wyoming.

Norman explained that the offering was priced based on the closing price of U.S. Gold’s common shares on Monday, December 15, 2025, which was $16.91 per share. The pricing reflects an approximate 4% discount to the market close, a structure designed to balance investor participation while minimizing dilution. The warrants issued in connection with the private placement are immediately exercisable and have a two-year term from the date of issuance, providing additional potential upside for participants.

The company intends to deploy the net proceeds strategically across several priorities. A primary focus will be funding initial development costs at the CK Gold Project, which has now entered the final stage of its Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS). In addition, funds may be allocated toward potential land acquisitions, further exploration across the company’s property portfolio, and general working capital to support ongoing operations.

Norman emphasized that U.S. Gold is moving “full steam ahead” with the CK Gold Project, highlighting that site preparation activities are already underway. As the DFS progresses toward completion, the company believes it is well positioned to transition from advanced study work into the early stages of project development.

With a strengthened balance sheet and capital in place, U.S. Gold Corp. expects 2026 to be a pivotal year as it works to de-risk the CK Gold Project, advance permitting and development planning, and create long-term value for shareholders.

      <itunes:summary>U.S. Gold Corp. Chairman Luke Norman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s financing activities following the successful closing of a private placement that raised approximately $31.2 million in gross proceeds. The financing represents a significant step forward as the company advances toward development of its flagship CK Gold Project in Wyoming.

Norman explained that the offering was priced based on the closing price of U.S. Gold’s common shares on Monday, December 15, 2025, which was $16.91 per share. The pricing reflects an approximate 4% discount to the market close, a structure designed to balance investor participation while minimizing dilution. The warrants issued in connection with the private placement are immediately exercisable and have a two-year term from the date of issuance, providing additional potential upside for participants.

The company intends to deploy the net proceeds strategically across several priorities. A primary focus will be funding initial development costs at the CK Gold Project, which has now entered the final stage of its Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS). In addition, funds may be allocated toward potential land acquisitions, further exploration across the company’s property portfolio, and general working capital to support ongoing operations.

Norman emphasized that U.S. Gold is moving “full steam ahead” with the CK Gold Project, highlighting that site preparation activities are already underway. As the DFS progresses toward completion, the company believes it is well positioned to transition from advanced study work into the early stages of project development.

With a strengthened balance sheet and capital in place, U.S. Gold Corp. expects 2026 to be a pivotal year as it works to de-risk the CK Gold Project, advance permitting and development planning, and create long-term value for shareholders.

      <title>GMG secures EPA approval milestone for THERMAL-XR® ENHANCE as US commercialisation advances</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Graphene Manufacturing Group CEO Craig Nicol joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s commercialisation progress, highlighting a major regulatory milestone for its THERMAL-XR® ENHANCE graphene coating product. GMG announced it has received and accepted the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s consent notice approval conditions under the Pre-Manufacture Notice (PMN) process, clearing an important step toward full market entry in the United States.

The EPA consent notice represents a significant achievement for GMG, as the PMN program is designed to ensure the safety and environmental suitability of new chemical substances introduced into the U.S. market. With this approval milestone in place, THERMAL-XR® ENHANCE is positioned to offer meaningful energy savings and enhanced corrosion resistance for U.S. consumers and commercial users across a range of industrial and building applications.

Nicol explained that, upon receipt of the fully signed consent notice from the EPA—expected early in the new year—the first commercial shipment of THERMAL-XR® ENHANCE will be sent to Nu-Calgon. The product will be distributed and resold under the name “Nu-Calgon CoolWorx® powered by GMG Graphene,” marking GMG’s initial commercial rollout of the technology in the U.S. market.

Beyond coatings, Nicol also provided an update on GMG’s Graphene Aluminium-Ion (G+AI) Battery technology, which is being developed in collaboration with the University of Queensland under a Joint Development Agreement with Rio Tinto, one of the world’s largest mining and metals companies. The project is also supported by the Battery Innovation Center of Indiana in the United States, strengthening the development and validation framework for the technology.

GMG reported that, at its current stage of development, the G+AI Battery demonstrates performance characteristics comparable to high-power Lithium Titanate Oxide (LTO) batteries, which typically sell at premium prices of up to US$1,500 per kilowatt-hour. Importantly, GMG believes its graphene-based battery can be manufactured at a substantially lower cost, enabling pricing below that of LTO batteries. In 2025, global sales of LTO batteries reached approximately US$5.6 billion, underscoring the scale of the addressable market.
Looking ahead, GMG management believes continued optimization of the cathode, anode, electrolyte, and overall component weight could enable the G+AI Battery to achieve energy densities of more than 150 Wh/kg when charged in one hour, and over 75 Wh/kg with ultra-fast six-minute charging. The company sees these performance targets as key drivers for future commercial competitiveness across a wide range of global energy storage applications.

      <title>Medicus Pharma partners With Reliant AI to advance AI-driven clinical trial analytics</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma Chief Medical Officer Dr. Faisel Mehmud joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has entered into a non-binding letter of intent with Reliant AI, a decision-intelligence company specializing in generative artificial intelligence for the life sciences. The proposed collaboration is focused on developing an AI-powered data analytics platform designed to enhance clinical trial execution through advanced, data-driven insights.

Reliant AI is a privately held company founded by former DeepMind and Google Brain researchers Karl Moritz Hermann and Marc Bellemare, alongside life sciences expert Richard Schlegel. The company combines state-of-the-art machine learning techniques with deep biomedical expertise to automate data-intensive workflows across the life sciences, ranging from systematic literature reviews to commercial success prediction. Its platform is designed to enable biopharma teams to make faster, more informed, evidence-based decisions throughout the research and development lifecycle.

Dr. Mehmud explained that the proposed platform would integrate Reliant AI’s proprietary generative AI technology with Medicus’ clinical, operational, and internal datasets. The goal is to strengthen data-driven decision-making across Medicus’ clinical pipeline, with a particular focus on improving trial efficiency. Key anticipated capabilities include dynamic clinical-site selection, enhanced patient stratification, and more accurate enrollment forecasting.

The initial phase of the collaboration is expected to focus on dynamic site selection supported by targeted patient-stratification analyses for an upcoming Teverelix clinical study, which is planned to begin in 2026. Subject to the execution of definitive agreements, Medicus expects the data analytics platform to be deployed initially in support of a Medicus-sponsored study during the Q2 to Q4 2026 period. There is also potential for the platform to be expanded to support a larger, late-stage clinical study planned for 2028, potentially in collaboration with a development or commercial partner.

Medicus Pharma is currently advancing its SKNJCT-003 Phase 2 clinical study, which is being conducted across nine clinical sites in the United States. The study, which began randomizing patients in August 2024, is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, triple-arm proof-of-concept trial evaluating a non-invasive treatment for basal cell carcinoma of the skin. The study uses Medicus’ novel, patent-protected, dissolvable doxorubicin-containing microneedle array (D-MNA) technology, highlighting the company’s broader commitment to innovation in both therapeutic development and clinical execution.

      <itunes:summary>Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has successfully completed its due diligence process and is preparing to close its acquisition of Krafty Labs on January 2, 2026, subject to customary closing conditions, including approval from the Canadian Securities Exchange (CSE).

Gappelberg explained that Krafty Labs brings a highly attractive blue-chip customer roster that includes global technology and enterprise leaders such as Google, Microsoft, Netflix, Oracle, Yelp, ZoomInfo, Spotify, and Meta, among others. In addition to its strong customer base, Krafty Labs has generated approximately $1.2 million in year-to-date 2025 revenue, supported by robust gross margins of roughly 72%, underscoring the scalability and profitability of its platform.

Management believes the acquisition will significantly enhance Nextech3D.ai’s AI-first event and engagement ecosystem by adding enterprise-grade capabilities that complement its existing technology stack. The integration of Krafty Labs’ advanced engagement tools with Nextech3D.ai’s in-person, virtual, and hybrid event solutions is expected to expand the company’s reach into higher-value enterprise and association customers.

Gappelberg noted that the combined platform is positioned to drive higher average contract values, foster deeper and longer-term customer relationships, and unlock new monetization opportunities across a broad range of event formats. By strengthening its foothold in the enterprise market, Nextech3D.ai aims to accelerate revenue growth while reinforcing its position as a leading provider of AI-powered event and experience technologies.

      <title>Helix eyes first helium output at Rudyard with PSA unit set to arrive</title>
      <description><![CDATA[HeLIX Exploration PLC (AIM:HEX, OTCQB:HHEXF) CEO Bo Sears talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s imminent transition into helium production at its Rudyard project in Montana. Sears confirmed that the PSA compressor, described as the "long lead item," is now en route to site, marking the final step in completing the processing unit.

“Once that is delivered and installed, we will be a helium producing company,” Sears told Proactive, emphasizing that all other infrastructure is already in place. The company expects only minor fine-tuning once all components are connected. He noted that despite the upcoming holiday season slowing some activity, HeLIX remains on track.

Sears also discussed expanded acreage at Rudyard, which he said has revealed greater potential with each well drilled. HeLIX is waiting for a suitable weather window post-Christmas to continue drilling operations, which were recently delayed by severe weather conditions.

On the commercial side, Sears said discussions remain active around helium offtake agreements and potential hydrogen-related partnerships. However, final commitments will only follow first production.

“It's just going to take a few days to get this thing plumbed together and in operation mode,” Sears added. “We are really excited about our future here.”

      <title>Oakmount &amp; Partners investee Intergroup Mining moves closer to Nasdaq IPO with SEC filing</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Oakmount & Partners Ltd managing director Glenn King talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the progress investee company Intergroup Mining has made toward its planned listing on the Nasdaq stock exchange.

King explained that the submission of legal and accounting documentation to the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) marks a “significant milestone” for Intergroup Mining. “It now means that the company, from a tangible perspective, is just one stage closer to its debut listing,” he said.

He noted that while the SEC now enters a review phase, Intergroup can respond to any questions and continue progressing toward its IPO. King also outlined the key compliance steps remaining and highlighted the importance of demonstrating strong financials, clear business plans, and limited share dilution.

From an investor perspective, King said a US listing would deliver strategic benefits. “You’re on a notable tier one exchange with deep pools of liquidity,” he noted, adding that it may also position Intergroup as an acquisition target in the coming years.

He added that Intergroup Mining produces kaolin, metakaolin, and is also positioned to begin gold production, noting that the project is considered a "legacy mine" with a life expectancy of more than 100 years.

Updates are expected around late January or early February, depending on SEC feedback.

      <title>Frontier IP investee Dekiln secures £3m for low-carbon tile tech scale-up</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Dekiln CEO Dr Aled Roberts talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s breakthrough in sustainable ceramic tile production and how £3 million in funding from the Royal Academy of Engineering’s Green Future Fellowship program will help scale the technology.

Roberts explained that conventional ceramic tiles have a high carbon footprint due to the energy-intensive kiln-firing process. Dekiln has developed an alternative by mimicking natural processes seen in seashells and tooth enamel, creating tiles that function and feel like ceramics without requiring high-temperature firing.

“Our materials are made with very high recycled content,” said Roberts. The tiles are manufactured using recycled gypsum, plastics, and calcium sulfate, combined with a bio-based active ingredient. This not only lowers energy input but significantly reduces carbon emissions in the manufacturing process.

The funding will support Dekiln’s transition from lab-scale production—currently at one square metre of tiles per day—to commercial-scale manufacturing. The company has recently moved into a new facility and upgraded to an entry-level commercial press, representing the first step in its scale-up journey. It now aims to work with a UK-based industrial partner to build a pilot plant.

      <title>M2i Global advances Volato merger and updates exclusive offtake with Next-Gen</title>
      <description><![CDATA[M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s strategic initiatives, including progress on its merger with Volato and a new offtake agreement with Next-Gen.
Rosende confirmed that the long-anticipated merger with Volato is moving forward after delays caused by a recent government shutdown. “We were able to push it out quickly,” he said, referencing the company’s SEC filing response. The shareholder meeting to approve the merger is scheduled for February 26th, 2026, with the company aiming to close the deal by the end of the first quarter. This milestone is expected to strengthen M2i Global’s software development capabilities, particularly in applications supporting critical mineral supply chains.

The CEO also shared details about a new partnership with Next-Gen, which operates a proprietary cathode material process. The facility in Australia will be the first of its kind outside China, and M2i Global has secured an exclusive offtake agreement for the material, expected to begin delivery in approximately two years. Rosende described the development as “really exciting news that we’ll be able to bring that to the United States,” underscoring the strategic importance of securing a stable, non-China-based supply of cathode materials for the North American market.

Looking ahead to 2026, Rosende emphasized Volato’s critical role in the company’s broader Critical Minerals Reserve project. Volato will provide software solutions for material tracking, inventory management, and integration with partner operations. A pilot program is planned to validate the technology, ensuring seamless coordination across the supply chain and providing real-time analytics for strategic decision-making.

Rosende concluded that these developments position M2i Global to enhance its operational capabilities, secure critical supply sources, and expand its footprint in the rapidly growing market for advanced battery materials and critical minerals.

The facility in Australia will be the first of its kind outside China, and M2i Global has secured an exclusive offtake agreement for the material, expected to begin delivery in approximately two years. Rosende described the development as “really exciting news that we’ll be able to bring that to the United States,” underscoring the strategic importance of securing a stable, non-China-based supply of cathode materials for the North American market.

Looking ahead to 2026, Rosende emphasized Volato’s critical role in the company’s broader Critical Minerals Reserve project. Volato will provide software solutions for material tracking, inventory management, and integration with partner operations. A pilot program is planned to validate the technology, ensuring seamless coordination across the supply chain and providing real-time analytics for strategic decision-making.

Rosende concluded that these developments position M2i Global to enhance its operational capabilities, secure critical supply sources, and expand its footprint in the rapidly growing market for advanced battery materials and critical minerals.

      <itunes:subtitle>M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s strategic initiatives, including progress on its merger with Volato and a new offtake agreement with Next-Gen.
Rosende confirmed that the long-anticipated merger with Volato is moving forward after delays caused by a recent government shutdown. “We were able to push it out quickly,” he said, referencing the company’s SEC filing response. The shareholder meeting to approve the merger is scheduled for February 26th, 2026, with the company aiming to close the deal by the end of the first quarter. This milestone is expected to strengthen M2i Global’s software development capabilities, particularly in applications supporting critical mineral supply chains.

      <title>Replenish Nutrients moves into commercialization with major U.S. licensing deal</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Replenish Nutrients CEO Neil Wiens joined Steve Darling to outline the company’s transition from development into full commercialization, highlighted by strategic licensing agreements and a significant partnership in the United States.

Wiens described 2025 as a pivotal transformation year for Replenish Nutrients. During this period, the company successfully completed its proof-of-concept phase, finalized key intellectual property filings, and moved into commercial-scale operations. “We are physically into that next phase where the licensing deals are real,” Wiens said, emphasizing that the business is now executing on its commercialization strategy rather than preparing for it.

A central focus of the discussion was Replenish Nutrients’ recently announced U.S. licensing agreement with Farmers Union Enterprises. The agreement provides the company with access to approximately 70 million acres of farmland, representing a substantial commercial opportunity. Wiens highlighted the favorable timing of the deal, noting its alignment with a newly announced US$700 million USDA regenerative agriculture program. He described the timing as “absolutely fantastic,” as policy support and grower interest in soil health solutions continue to accelerate.

Operationally, Wiens confirmed that the company’s Minnesota-based production facility is on track to become operational by June. In parallel, Replenish Nutrients is actively engaged in discussions to expand its footprint into four additional U.S. states. Beyond North America, the company is also evaluating opportunities in Brazil, citing strong synergies in nutrient usage and alignment with its existing supply chain partner.

Wiens reiterated that farmer return on investment remains the cornerstone of adoption. “If I can get soil health plus keep my yield the same or better and also start decreasing my fungicide and pesticide use – I win as a farmer,” he said, underscoring the value proposition Replenish aims to deliver to growers.

Looking ahead to 2026, Replenish Nutrients plans to scale its global presence while maintaining its operational and corporate base in Canada, positioning the company to benefit from the growing global focus on regenerative agriculture and sustainable food production.

      <title>ProPhase Labs announces LOI for reverse merger with Advanced Biological</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ProPhase Labs CEO Ted Karkus joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has entered into a non-binding Letter of Intent (LOI) regarding a proposed reverse merger transaction with Advanced Biological Laboratories (ABL), a European biotechnology and MedTech group. 

Under the proposed structure, Advanced Biological would become the majority owner of the combined public entity, while ProPhase’s existing operations would continue as sister companies to a newly formed U.S. subsidiary expected to remain under ProPhase’s current management team.

Karkus emphasized that the transaction remains subject to the execution of definitive agreements, regulatory approvals, and board authorization. However, the parties have discussed a preliminary, non-binding valuation framework that could imply an enterprise value of up to approximately US$30 million for ProPhase’s legacy business. This framework is intended to provide a basis for ongoing negotiations rather than a final valuation.

As outlined in the LOI, and subject to applicable law and final documentation, ProPhase Labs may declare a special cash dividend of up to US$10 million payable to shareholders of record on a date to be determined. Importantly, any such dividend would be distributed separately and would not be part of the merged operating company.

 In addition, all Crown Medical Collections receivables are expected to be carved out and retained exclusively for the benefit of current ProPhase shareholders, further preserving value for existing investors.
Advanced Biological Laboratories would contribute its global biotechnology and MedTech infrastructure to the combined company, including advanced health data processing platforms, cloud-based computing capabilities, and access to international financing resources.

 The combination is intended to create a more diversified healthcare technology platform with expanded global reach, while allowing ProPhase to unlock value for shareholders through potential cash distributions and retained assets.

      <title>Cabbacis prepares for U.S. launch of low-nicotine iBlend products</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cabbacis CEO Joe Pandolfino joined Steve Darling from to discuss the company’s strategic preparations to enter the U.S. market with its proprietary low-nicotine tobacco products. Cabbacis is a federally licensed tobacco product manufacturer with a robust intellectual property portfolio that includes 35 issued patents worldwide, covering its iBlend™ cigarettes and vaporizer pod technology. The company operates out of a manufacturing facility in Niagara Falls, New York, and is led by a management team that brings more than 50 years of combined experience in the tobacco industry.

Pandolfino explained that iBlend™ products have been specifically engineered to align with anticipated regulatory changes in the United States. He noted that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration is advancing a rule that could require a reduction of nicotine levels in all cigarettes sold in the country by approximately 95%. “The FDA is moving forward a rule which would mandate the reduction of nicotine in all cigarettes sold in the United States by about 95%,” Pandolfino said, positioning iBlend™ as a potential solution for a post-regulation tobacco market.

Cabbacis’ strategy centers on improving consumer acceptance of very low nicotine cigarettes, which multiple peer-reviewed studies have shown can significantly reduce smoking frequency and nicotine dependence. Pandolfino highlighted that the company’s proprietary blend incorporates hemp alongside tobacco, a formulation that internal focus group research indicates is more appealing to smokers than traditional very low nicotine products.

Looking ahead, Cabbacis plans to conduct additional studies in the first quarter of 2026 to support regulatory submissions. The company is targeting the submission of a Pre-Market Tobacco Application (PMTA) to the FDA for its iBlend™ products in the first half of 2026. Pandolfino told Proactive that achieving FDA authorization would mark a major milestone and could position Cabbacis as an early mover in a rapidly evolving, regulation-driven U.S. tobacco landscape.

      <title>Happy Creek reports strong Tungsten assays from 2025 drilling at Fox project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Happy Creek Minerals CEO Steve Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share details of the company’s latest assay results from its 2025 diamond drilling program at the Fox Tungsten Project in British Columbia. The recently completed program focused on expanding the known tungsten mineralization at the Ridley Creek (RC) and BN zones, two of the project’s most prospective target areas.

During September and October, Happy Creek completed a total of 18 diamond core drill holes at the Fox Project, drilling an aggregate 2,176 metres. The primary objective of the program was to test extensions of known calc-silicate horizons that host tungsten mineralization and to better define the geometry and continuity of these zones beneath areas of limited surface exposure.

Gray told Proactive that drilling at the Ridley Creek zone successfully confirmed strong continuity of the calc-silicate horizon and expanded the mineralized system to the southwest. Importantly, the mineralization remains clearly open to the west beneath Deception Mountain, highlighting significant potential for further resource growth. One of the standout results from the RC zone came from hole F25-13, which intersected 1.18 metres grading an impressive 6.83% WO₃ at a downhole depth of 31.2 metres.

At the BN zone, drilling on the northwest side intersected multiple calc-silicate horizons, supporting a stacked-layer geological model. One of these mineralized horizons was intersected at a depth of approximately 200 metres below surface, indicating the system extends well beyond previously tested depths. Results from hole F25-16 included 1.00 metre grading 0.88% WO₃ from 105.0 metres downhole, as well as a deeper intercept of 1.65 metres grading 0.57% WO₃ from 218.3 metres downhole.

According to Gray, the 2025 drilling program clearly demonstrates that the calc-silicate horizons and associated tungsten mineralization at both the RC and BN zones remain open to the west and north beneath Deception Mountain. The results also point to the potential for additional, yet-to-be-discovered horizons at depth, reinforcing the Fox Project’s upside as a growing tungsten system.

Happy Creek plans to incorporate the new assay and geological data into its ongoing interpretation work as it evaluates next steps for further drilling and resource expansion at the Fox Tungsten Project.

      <itunes:summary>Happy Creek Minerals CEO Steve Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share details of the company’s latest assay results from its 2025 diamond drilling program at the Fox Tungsten Project in British Columbia. The recently completed program focused on expanding the known tungsten mineralization at the Ridley Creek (RC) and BN zones, two of the project’s most prospective target areas.

During September and October, Happy Creek completed a total of 18 diamond core drill holes at the Fox Project, drilling an aggregate 2,176 metres. The primary objective of the program was to test extensions of known calc-silicate horizons that host tungsten mineralization and to better define the geometry and continuity of these zones beneath areas of limited surface exposure.

Gray told Proactive that drilling at the Ridley Creek zone successfully confirmed strong continuity of the calc-silicate horizon and expanded the mineralized system to the southwest. Importantly, the mineralization remains clearly open to the west beneath Deception Mountain, highlighting significant potential for further resource growth. One of the standout results from the RC zone came from hole F25-13, which intersected 1.18 metres grading an impressive 6.83% WO₃ at a downhole depth of 31.2 metres.

At the BN zone, drilling on the northwest side intersected multiple calc-silicate horizons, supporting a stacked-layer geological model. One of these mineralized horizons was intersected at a depth of approximately 200 metres below surface, indicating the system extends well beyond previously tested depths.

      <title>Ilika begins shipping Stereax M300 prototypes, reaching key commercial milestone</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika CEO Graeme Purdy joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has begun shipping prototype Stereax M300 solid-state batteries to customers, marking a significant commercial milestone for the business. The initial shipments represent the first delivery of the M300 product and will be allocated to the 21 customers that currently make up Ilika’s existing order book.

Many of these customers have already evaluated earlier-generation Stereax batteries supplied from Ilika’s UK pilot production line, and the new prototype deliveries are intended to support further validation and system-level integration. In parallel, a portion of the initial M300 batches will be retained by Ilika for its extensive internal testing programme. This programme is designed to generate a broader and more robust body of performance data aligned with demanding use cases, particularly within active implantable medical devices.

Purdy told Proactive that the potential applications for the Stereax M300 span a wide range of implantable and wearable medical technologies. These include powering implanted sensors, neurostimulators, orthopaedic implants, orthodontic wearables, and ophthalmology devices. He explained that Stereax’s small footprint, combined with enhanced charging capability, makes it especially well suited for AIMDs.

Key benefits of the Stereax technology include reduced surgical time, greater flexibility in placing implants closer to the point of therapy, long operational life, and the convenience of user recharging at home. In addition, the battery’s ability to support Bluetooth radio functionality opens the door to advanced connected medical applications.

As part of the commercialization process, Ilika and its strategic manufacturing partner, Cirtec Medical Corp, will actively gather feedback from this initial customer group. The insights gained will be used to verify customer experience and performance expectations before scaling up production.

This latest milestone advances the 10-year manufacturing agreement signed in August 2023, under which Cirtec Medical, a leading US-based medical device manufacturer, will produce Ilika’s full Stereax battery portfolio. The commencement of prototype shipments represents a key step toward broader commercial deployment of Ilika’s solid-state battery technology in medical markets.

      <title>Skyler Weinand on rate cuts and bond strategies</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Regan Capital CIO Skyler Weinand joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share news about the dynamics of the fixed income markets, interest rates, and mortgage-backed securities.

Weinand outlined Regan Capital’s focus on U.S. mortgage-backed securities, noting the company manages around $3.6 billion across mutual funds, ETFs, and a UCITS ETF for non-U.S. investors. “Mortgages are about $13.5 trillion outstanding,” Weinand said, emphasizing the scale of the U.S. mortgage market and the challenges retail investors face accessing it directly.

He discussed how recent Federal Reserve rate cuts have not lowered long-term interest rates. In fact, the yield on longer-term bonds and mortgage rates have increased. Weinand stated, “Mortgage rates are actually higher today than they were last September.”

He cautioned that loose financial conditions, robust corporate balance sheets, and rising equity markets suggest rates could move higher, even if the Fed implements more cuts. He noted growing corporate debt issuance, with examples like Google’s 50-year bond at a 5.7% coupon.

For investors, Weinand recommended focusing on short-duration and floating-rate securities, especially those backed by U.S. government guarantees, which can offer higher yields with lower volatility.

      <title>Standard Uranium maps 2026 growth after strong funding and JV progress in 2025</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium CEO Jon Bey joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s operational progress throughout 2025 and outline its strategic roadmap heading into 2026, highlighting a year marked by successful capital raising, advancing exploration programs, and the expansion of its joint venture portfolio.

Bey noted that Standard Uranium raised nearly C$7.0 million during 2025, providing the financial foundation to advance multiple exploration initiatives across its project portfolio. A significant portion of that capital has been allocated to the Davidson River project, which is now fully funded and preparing for the largest drill program in the project’s history. Drilling at Davidson River is scheduled to begin in late May 2026 and is expected to be a major catalyst for the company.

One of the year’s key developments was the return of 100% ownership of the Sun Dog project to Standard Uranium after joint venture partner Arrow Energy was unable to meet its funding commitments. Bey explained that this outcome has positioned the company to re-engage the market, confirming that multiple confidentiality agreements have already been signed with interested joint venture partners. Subject to final agreements, drilling at Sun Dog is expected to resume in late summer 2026.

The company also continued to advance its project generator business model by securing new joint venture agreements. Standard Uranium entered into a partnership with Aventis on the Corvo project and a separate agreement with Collective Metals on the Rocas project. Both projects are on track to begin drilling in the first quarter of 2026, further diversifying the company’s near-term exploration pipeline.

Looking ahead, Bey confirmed that Standard Uranium’s full management and technical team will attend the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference in January 2026. The company plans to meet with investors and stakeholders at the event to provide updates on its exploration plans and outline anticipated catalysts for the year ahead.

A significant portion of that capital has been allocated to the Davidson River project, which is now fully funded and preparing for the largest drill program in the project’s history. Drilling at Davidson River is scheduled to begin in late May 2026 and is expected to be a major catalyst for the company.

One of the year’s key developments was the return of 100% ownership of the Sun Dog project to Standard Uranium after joint venture partner Arrow Energy was unable to meet its funding commitments. Bey explained that this outcome has positioned the company to re-engage the market, confirming that multiple confidentiality agreements have already been signed with interested joint venture partners. Subject to final agreements, drilling at Sun Dog is expected to resume in late summer 2026.

The company also continued to advance its project generator business model by securing new joint venture agreements. Standard Uranium entered into a partnership with Aventis on the Corvo project and a separate agreement with Collective Metals on the Rocas project. Both projects are on track to begin drilling in the first quarter of 2026, further diversifying the company’s near-term exploration pipeline.

Looking ahead, Bey confirmed that Standard Uranium’s full management and technical team will attend the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference in January 2026. The company plans to meet with investors and stakeholders at the event to provide updates on its exploration plans and outline anticipated catalysts for the year ahead.

      <title>1911 Gold launches 2,200 metre drill program at Ogama-Rockland gold deposit</title>
      <description><![CDATA[1911 Gold Corporation Chairman Gary O’Connor joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the start of a 2,200-metre diamond drilling program at the Ogama-Rockland gold deposit, located southeast of the company’s True North Gold Project.

The program has already commenced, with one surface diamond drill rig mobilized to site. The drilling campaign is designed to support both resource expansion and confirmation, as the company continues to advance its understanding of the Ogama-Rockland deposit and its potential integration with existing infrastructure at True North.

The Ogama-Rockland gold deposit currently hosts an NI 43-101 compliant inferred mineral resource of approximately 1.28 million tonnes grading 8.17 grams per tonne gold, containing an estimated 337,000 ounces of gold. O’Connor emphasized that the deposit’s high-grade nature and shallow mineralization make it an attractive near-term development opportunity.

According to O’Connor, the planned eight drill holes will focus on confirming the updated geological model and testing extensions of high-grade, quartz-vein-hosted gold mineralization at relatively shallow depths. Drilling will target both down-dip and along-strike extensions of the main vein system, as well as newly identified parallel structures that emerged from recent relogging and resampling of historical drill core and updated geological modelling.

In addition to expanding the resource base, the company plans to conduct metallurgical test work on drill core samples collected during the program. This testing will evaluate the suitability of processing material from Ogama-Rockland at the existing True North processing facility, potentially providing a streamlined development pathway and capital efficiencies.

Following completion of the drill program and analysis of the results, 1911 Gold plans to deliver an updated underground mineral resource estimate in the first half of 2026. The company views this program as an important step in unlocking additional value at Ogama-Rockland while leveraging its established infrastructure at the broader True North project.

      <title>BioVie advances Parkinson’s, long COVID, and liver disease programs ahead of 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[BioVie CEO Cuong Do joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s recent progress across its two lead drug candidates, Bezisterim and BIV201, as BioVie positions itself for multiple clinical and regulatory catalysts in 2026.

Bezisterim, an anti-inflammatory compound that blocks tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α), is being evaluated across several indications, including Parkinson’s disease, long COVID, and Alzheimer’s disease. Do highlighted that the compound has delivered encouraging signals in prior studies, including improvements in muscle control and cognitive function, as well as evidence suggesting a slowing of biological aging.

Building on these results, BioVie has launched a new clinical trial enrolling 60 patients with earlier-stage Parkinson’s disease to evaluate Bezisterim as a standalone therapy. The goal of the study is to assess the drug’s potential disease-modifying effects when administered earlier in the disease course. Topline data from this trial are expected in April or May of 2026.

In parallel, BioVie is advancing a separate, larger clinical program targeting long COVID. The company is conducting a 200-patient trial designed to evaluate Bezisterim’s ability to address persistent inflammatory mechanisms believed to drive many long COVID symptoms. Enrollment for this study is expected to be completed by February 2026. The trial is supported by a $13 million grant awarded to BioVie, underscoring the growing recognition of inflammation as a key contributor to long COVID.

Do also provided an update on BioVie’s second lead candidate, BIV201, which is being developed to treat ascites associated with late-stage liver disease. The company’s Phase 2 trial of BIV201 was stopped early after interim data showed the drug reduced fluid accumulation by more than 50%, a clinically meaningful outcome in a difficult-to-treat patient population.

Following discussions with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, BioVie has now received feedback and authorization to advance BIV201 directly into a single Phase 3 clinical trial, streamlining the development pathway.

Looking ahead, Do emphasized that BioVie expects 2026 to be a transformational year, with multiple clinical data readouts across programs and the potential initiation of a pivotal Phase 3 study. “2026 will be a big catalyst year for us,” he said, highlighting the breadth of opportunities across the company’s pipeline.

      <title>2025.12.17 Tiziana Life Tiziana Life Sciences doses first patient in Phase 2 Alzheimer’s clinical trial Ltd</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tiziana Life Sciences CEO Ivor Elrifi joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a key clinical milestone, confirming that the first patient has been successfully dosed with intranasal foralumab in the company’s Phase 2 randomized, placebo-controlled clinical trial in patients with early Alzheimer’s disease (AD).
This achievement follows the company’s December 12, 2025 announcement that patient enrollment had begun, with first dosing expected imminently. The rapid progression from enrollment to dosing highlights strong site readiness and momentum for the study.

The Phase 2 trial is designed to evaluate intranasal foralumab both as a standalone therapy and in combination with FDA-approved anti-amyloid treatments, including lecanemab (Leqembi®) and donanemab. By exploring combination therapy alongside monotherapy, Tiziana aims to assess whether targeting neuroinflammation can provide additive or complementary benefits to existing amyloid-reducing approaches.

Elrifi explained that the trial is supported by compelling TSPO-PET imaging data, which demonstrate persistent and widespread microglial activation—a key marker of neuroinflammation—in patients with Alzheimer’s disease. Notably, this neuroinflammatory activity has been shown to persist even after amyloid plaque reduction with therapies such as lecanemab. According to Elrifi, this evidence highlights a critical unmet need in Alzheimer’s treatment: addressing residual neuroinflammation that may continue to drive disease progression.

Intranasal foralumab is designed to modulate immune responses within the central nervous system and calm overactivated microglia, potentially reducing chronic inflammation associated with neurodegeneration. The intranasal delivery method is intended to provide targeted central nervous system exposure while minimizing systemic side effects.

The Phase 2 study is a randomized, placebo-controlled trial assessing the safety, tolerability, and potential efficacy of intranasal foralumab in patients with early or mild Alzheimer’s disease. Primary endpoints include changes in neuroinflammation as measured by TSPO-PET imaging, cognitive function outcomes, and biomarker changes related to amyloid and tau pathology.

With the first patient now dosed, Tiziana Life Sciences advances into the next phase of clinical evaluation, positioning the company to generate meaningful data on whether addressing neuroinflammation—alone or in combination with anti-amyloid therapies—can improve outcomes for patients with early Alzheimer’s disease.

      <title>Allergy Therapeutics CEO on grass vaccine milestone and next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Allergy Therapeutics PLC (AIM:AGY, OTC:AGYTF) chief executive Manuel Llobet talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the granting of approval for Grassmuno, its grass allergy immunotherapy vaccine, in Germany - a significant milestone for the company.

Llobet explained that the product is the first to be approved under the Therapieallergene-Verordnung (TAV) framework in the SCIT (subcutaneous immunotherapy) segment. The vaccine targets moderate to severe grass allergy sufferers, which he said represents the largest segment of the allergy market. "It's been a long journey, about one decade… tens of millions of investment to produce a state-of-the-art product," Llobet noted.

He highlighted key advantages of the product: it is aluminium-free, adjuvanted, and designed as a short-course treatment — improving patient compliance and convenience. Allergy Therapeutics plans to replace its previous Pollinex Quattro Grass product in Germany with this new version, which has a higher concentration of active ingredients.

Next steps include market expansion in Europe, Asia, and the US, leveraging clinical trials already coordinated with the FDA. The company is also exploring mutual recognition across EU territories via the Paul-Ehrlich-Institut.

Llobet also touched on recent financials, pointing to portfolio restructuring and the shift from NPP products to registered treatments. Additionally, he discussed a potential dual primary listing in Hong Kong, aiming to engage Chinese investors and support expansion in the Asian market.

      <title>EnWave reports strong Q4 and FY2025 results as machine sales and royalties grow</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EnWave Corporation CEO Brent Charleton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s interim financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, highlighting a strong finish to the year driven by rising machine sales and expanding royalty streams.

For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, EnWave reported revenue of C$6.2 million, a significant increase from C$3.6 million in the same quarter last year. The robust performance reflected the commissioning of one large-scale and six small-scale Radiant Energy Vacuum (REV™) machines, the sale of a refurbished 120-kilowatt unit, and continued fabrication work on two large-scale machines under existing contracts.

Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter improved substantially to C$1.4 million, compared with C$0.45 million in Q4 2024. The improvement was attributed to higher machine sales volumes and a favorable production mix. Gross margin for the quarter also edged higher to 41%, up from 40% in the comparable period a year earlier.
Royalty revenue showed mixed performance. Base royalties, excluding exclusivity payments, increased 31% to C$0.48 million, reflecting growing utilization of EnWave’s technology by partners. However, total royalty revenue declined 25% to C$0.48 million due to a royalty partner in a Central American market choosing not to renew an exclusivity agreement.

For the full fiscal year 2025, EnWave posted revenue of C$13.8 million, up sharply from C$8.2 million in fiscal 2024. Adjusted EBITDA turned positive at C$0.3 million, compared with a loss of C$1.5 million in the prior year, driven primarily by increased machine sales. Annual gross margin improved to 34% from 33% in 2024.

Base royalties for the year rose 14% to C$1.8 million, while total royalty revenue decreased slightly to C$1.95 million. Selling, general and administrative expenses, including research and development, increased to C$5.6 million as the company invested more heavily in marketing, sales, and growth initiatives.

During the fourth quarter and subsequent months, EnWave signed multiple new equipment purchase and license agreements with partners including Milne MicroDried, Dairy Concepts, BranchOut Food, Solve Solutions, and Shinyway International, further expanding its commercial footprint.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai strengthens sales leadership to drive commercial growth in 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg and the company’s newly appointed Global Head of Sales, James McGuinness, joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the strategic importance of McGuinness’ appointment as the company sharpens its focus on expanding commercial operations heading into 2026.

Gappelberg explained that strengthening the sales organization is a critical pillar of Nextech3D.ai’s growth strategy as demand continues to rise for its AI-powered 3D, spatial computing, and event technology solutions. McGuinness has been brought in to lead the company’s global sales efforts, scale revenue-generating operations, and build a repeatable sales engine capable of supporting long-term growth.

McGuinness brings more than 21 years of experience in enterprise and technology sales, with a proven track record of building and scaling sales teams at both early-stage startups and high-growth companies. Since joining Nextech3D.ai, he has already recruited two additional sales professionals, completing a fully staffed sales organization that blends long-tenured Nextech team members with experienced new hires.

The company’s current sales team now includes a senior sales leader with a decade of industry experience, five of which have been spent at Nextech; a sales assistant with five years at the company; a sales engineer with four years of tenure; an additional seasoned sales representative; and two junior sales representatives focused on pipeline development and account support.

McGuinness’ previous experience spans several well-known technology companies and successful exits. He was a founding salesperson for GeoTrust Europe prior to its acquisition by VeriSign, built and led sales development teams at SPSS Europe before its acquisition by IBM, and served as one of the founding salespeople at INXPO, an early pioneer in virtual event technology. He was also part of the founding sales team for LinkedIn Sales Navigator and played a key role in growing YCharts’ revenue from approximately $1.6 million to roughly $20 million before the company’s acquisition in 2020.

Both Gappelberg and McGuinness emphasized that the strengthened sales leadership and fully built-out sales team position Nextech3D.ai to accelerate customer acquisition, deepen enterprise relationships, and capitalize on expanding market opportunities as the company moves into 2026.

      <title>Medicus Pharma completes enrollment in Phase 2 skin cancer microneedle study</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce another major clinical milestone for the company, confirming that enrollment has been successfully completed in its Phase 2 clinical study evaluating the safety and efficacy of its Doxorubicin Microneedle Array (D-MNA), also known as SKNJCT-003, for the non-invasive treatment of nodular basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin.

The Phase 2 study has enrolled a total of 90 patients across nine clinical sites in the United States and is currently underway. Completion of enrollment represents a key step forward in Medicus Pharma’s development strategy, positioning the company to advance discussions with regulators and accelerate progress toward later-stage trials.

Dr. Bokhari explained that the company expects to report topline results from the SKNJCT-003 study in the first quarter of 2026. Following the release of these data, Medicus Pharma plans to pursue an end-of-Phase 2 (EOP2) meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the first half of 2026 to discuss the next steps in the clinical and regulatory pathway.

SKNJCT-003 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study designed to evaluate two dose levels of the Doxorubicin Microneedle Array compared with a placebo microneedle array (P-MNA). Participants are randomized on a 1:1:1 basis into three treatment arms: a placebo group receiving P-MNA, a low-dose group receiving 100 micrograms of D-MNA, and a high-dose group receiving 200 micrograms of D-MNA.

The high-dose 200 microgram D-MNA represents the maximum dose previously tested in the company’s Phase 1 safety and tolerability study, SKNJCT-001, which was successfully completed in March 2021. The Phase 2 trial builds on that foundation, aiming to further validate both safety and therapeutic effectiveness in a larger patient population.

Medicus Pharma’s microneedle-based approach is designed to deliver chemotherapy directly into skin lesions while avoiding the need for invasive surgery, offering the potential for improved patient comfort, cosmetic outcomes, and treatment accessibility. The successful completion of enrollment marks a critical inflection point as the company advances toward potential late-stage development and regulatory engagement.

      <itunes:summary>Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce another major clinical milestone for the company, confirming that enrollment has been successfully completed in its Phase 2 clinical study evaluating the safety and efficacy of its Doxorubicin Microneedle Array (D-MNA), also known as SKNJCT-003, for the non-invasive treatment of nodular basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin.

The Phase 2 study has enrolled a total of 90 patients across nine clinical sites in the United States and is currently underway. Completion of enrollment represents a key step forward in Medicus Pharma’s development strategy, positioning the company to advance discussions with regulators and accelerate progress toward later-stage trials.

Dr. Bokhari explained that the company expects to report topline results from the SKNJCT-003 study in the first quarter of 2026. Following the release of these data, Medicus Pharma plans to pursue an end-of-Phase 2 (EOP2) meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration in the first half of 2026 to discuss the next steps in the clinical and regulatory pathway.

SKNJCT-003 is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study designed to evaluate two dose levels of the Doxorubicin Microneedle Array compared with a placebo microneedle array (P-MNA). Participants are randomized on a 1:1:1 basis into three treatment arms: a placebo group receiving P-MNA, a low-dose group receiving 100 micrograms of D-MNA, and a high-dose group receiving 200 micrograms of D-MNA.

The high-dose 200 microgram D-MNA represents the maximum dose previously tested in the company’s Phase 1 safety and tolerability study, SKNJCT-001, which was successfully completed in March 2021. The Phase 2 trial builds on that foundation, aiming to further validate both safety and therapeutic effectiveness in a larger patient population.

Medicus Pharma’s microneedle-based approach is designed to deliver chemotherapy directly into skin lesions while avoiding the need for invasive surgery, offering the potential for improved patient comfort, cosmetic outcomes, and treatment accessibility. The successful completion of enrollment marks a critical inflection point as the company advances toward potential late-stage development and regulatory engagement.

      <title>C3 Metals hits broad copper mineralization in first-ever drill hole at Khaleesi</title>
      <description><![CDATA[C3 Metals CEO Dan Symons joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce highly encouraging results from the first drill hole ever completed at the company’s Khaleesi copper project in southern Peru, marking a significant milestone for the greenfield exploration asset.

The inaugural hole returned a broad intercept of 269.0 metres grading 0.30% copper, including a higher-grade interval of 60.4 metres at 0.41% copper starting from 346.0 metres downhole. Symons described the result as a strong validation of the geological model and a promising indication of scale for the emerging system.

Khaleesi is currently being tested for the first time with an aggressive exploration program that includes two diamond drill rigs and a minimum of 6,000 metres of planned drilling. According to Symons, the early results point to the presence of a large, well-mineralized magnetite- and garnet-rich skarn body that is interfingered with multiple intrusive phases.

The mineralized skarn–intrusive contact zone appears to be well defined, coinciding with strong chargeability and magnetic geophysical anomalies. Importantly, drilling has confirmed that copper mineralization extends beneath a broad area of shallow glacial till cover—an area that had not been previously drill-tested and which significantly expands the project’s exploration footprint.
Symons cautioned that additional drilling will be required before the ultimate size and geometry of the Khaleesi system can be determined. In the meantime, the company is collecting detailed geological, alteration, geochemical, and structural data from all drill holes. This information is being incorporated into a comprehensive 3D geological block model, which will be integrated with existing 3D geophysical datasets to refine targeting and guide future drilling.

Based on the strong results from hole KHZ5800-001 and positive visual observations from additional holes that are either completed and awaiting assay results or currently being drilled, C3 Metals is actively considering expanding the drill program beyond the originally planned 14-hole, 6,300-metre campaign.
The early success at Khaleesi underscores the project’s potential to host a large-scale copper system and positions C3 Metals for continued exploration momentum as results continue to flow.

      <title>Blue Gold secures $4.5B gold supply to launch tokenized gold strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Blue Gold Limited CEO Andrew Cavaghan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s latest strategic initiatives, highlighted by a major move into the rapidly emerging tokenized gold market.

Cavaghan confirmed that Blue Gold Ltd has signed a landmark agreement securing access to 1 million ounces of gold, with an estimated value of approximately US$4.5 billion. The gold will underpin the company’s planned tokenization strategy, allowing physical gold to be digitized and offered to the market as demand for gold-backed tokens grows.

The supply agreement was established in partnership with DL Hudson Dunes, a long-established global commodities trading firm with operations spanning London, Singapore, and the United Arab Emirates. Cavaghan explained that the structure of the agreement provides flexibility, enabling Blue Gold to tokenize gold incrementally as market demand for the digital assets develops. 

In addition to the gold supply agreement, Cavaghan discussed Blue Gold’s proprietary trading arrangements, which provide upstream access to gold sources. This structure has the potential to generate more attractive margins and strengthens the company’s vertically integrated approach, combining physical gold exposure with innovative financial products.

These strategic moves build on Blue Gold’s Nasdaq listing in June 2025 and reflect the company’s broader ambition to bridge traditional gold markets with the fast-evolving digital asset ecosystem. Cavaghan emphasized that tokenized gold offers investors the stability of a physical commodity with the accessibility and efficiency of blockchain-based assets.

The interview also addressed Blue Gold’s mining operations in Ghana, where the company owns the Focus Mine, which hosts a reported 5.1 million-ounce gold resource. Cavaghan confirmed that a legal dispute regarding the mine’s title is ongoing. However, he noted that US$140 million has been placed in escrow and is available to restart production once the dispute is resolved.

      <title>Pathos CEO Omar Hamdi on IPO, AI tech &amp; growth strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pathos Communications (LSE:NEWS) CEO Omar Hamdi talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s mission to revolutionise media access for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) through its proprietary AI tools.

Hamdi outlined how Pathos Communications solves a long-standing issue in the PR space: getting SMEs into mainstream media coverage, a space typically dominated by billion-pound companies. With over 400 million SMEs globally, the company aims to scale impact through technology, not traditional PR methods.

Pathos, recently named the fastest-growing communications firm in the UK by the Financial Times, is now a London-listed business. Hamdi highlighted that the decision to list was strategic: “We looked at all of the markets in the world, and we said, London’s the right place for us to be.” He also noted the rare backing of institutional investors, including Venture Capital Trusts.

The firm’s roadmap includes scaling existing systems, global expansion into non-English-speaking markets, and advancing two internal AI tools: PathosMind, a PR brain for agencies, and Pressella, a virtual publicist for SMEs. “We believe that every business should have a full-time publicist,” said Hamdi. “The good news is you don’t have to pay $150,000 for one.”

Hamdi outlined how Pathos Communications solves a long-standing issue in the PR space: getting SMEs into mainstream media coverage, a space typically dominated by billion-pound companies. With over 400 million SMEs globally, the company aims to scale impact through technology, not traditional PR methods.

Pathos, recently named the fastest-growing communications firm in the UK by the Financial Times, is now a London-listed business. Hamdi highlighted that the decision to list was strategic: “We looked at all of the markets in the world, and we said, London’s the right place for us to be.” He also noted the rare backing of institutional investors, including Venture Capital Trusts.

The firm’s roadmap includes scaling existing systems, global expansion into non-English-speaking markets, and advancing two internal AI tools: PathosMind, a PR brain for agencies, and Pressella, a virtual publicist for SMEs. “We believe that every business should have a full-time publicist,” said Hamdi. “The good news is you don’t have to pay $150,000 for one.”

Watch the full interview for more on how Pathos plans to disrupt the global PR market.

      <title>Genflow Biosciences CEO discusses next steps as canine gene therapy trial hits milestone</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Genflow Biosciences Ltd (LSE:GENF, OTCQB:GENFF) CEO Dr Eric Leire talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s progress in its canine gene therapy trial targeting sarcopenia.

Leire confirmed that the dosing phase has now been completed with no adverse effects, calling it a key milestone in de-risking the SIRT6 programme for potential pharma partners and investors. He said, “We demonstrated some kind of safety, with the full dosing, we had to observe no side effect, no adverse side effect, even minor event.”

Leire explained the study’s scientific rigour, highlighting its randomised, controlled and blinded design using aged dogs not previously involved in clinical trials. This, he said, addresses a major unmet need in the life extension field, with industry experts previously considering such a study “impossible to do.”

Looking ahead, efficacy data is expected in January, with analysis focused on multiple endpoints. These include mitochondrial function, clinical data, muscle biopsies, and epigenetic markers like the methylation clock in collaboration with UCLA. Leire said the results could influence other Genflow programmes, including preclinical work on NASH, Werner syndrome and ophthalmology.

He noted that Genflow is in licensing discussions with several animal health companies and reiterated that while Genflow is not an animal health business, a potential deal could be shaped by the strength of the efficacy data.

      <title>HIVE Digital hits 25 Exahash milestone with green energy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[HIVE Digital Technologies (TSX-V:HIVE, NASDAQ:HIVE) executive chairman Frank Holmes talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's progress in both its Bitcoin mining operations and AI HPC initiatives.

Holmes highlighted that the company has scaled its Bitcoin hash rate from 6 to 25 exahash over six months, a significant milestone that brings increased stability and improved margins. “We've hit that critical mass event where we have more stability and margins,” he said. He also noted the strategic benefit of sourcing only green energy, with HIVE supporting Paraguay’s infrastructure through the development of substations and employing local engineers.

In November, the company mined 290 Bitcoin, representing an 8% increase month over month and a 180% increase year over year. Holmes positioned this performance as superior to Bitcoin’s price performance and that of peers in the sector.

On the AI side, HIVE is seeing strong growth. Revenue has doubled in the past year and is expected to grow 5 to 6 times over the next 12 months. Holmes attributed this to the delivery of more Nvidia chips to data centers and a partnership with Bell Canada. He said the company is aiming for up to $140 million in AI-related revenue, with 10,000 clients worldwide already using or renting its services.

Looking to 2026, HIVE plans to grow from 25 Eh to 35 Eh, with the Paraguayan government granting another 100MW of electricity. The company believes this could eventually expand to one gigawatt. Meanwhile, HIVE is repurposing a Bitcoin data center in Sweden into a high-performance computing hub, and sees strong potential at a site in New Brunswick, Canada.

      <title>Pinnacle Silver &amp; Gold CEO on signficance of first undergound drill program at El Potrero</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pinnacle Silver & Gold Corp (TSX-V:PINN, OTCQB:PSGCF) CEO Robert Archer talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's first drill program at the El Potrero project in Mexico, which will start with underground drilling rather than surface work.

Archer explained that the underground access available at El Potrero, due to historic mining that ceased 35 years ago, gives the company immediate access to mineralized zones. However, he pointed out the current workings are limited in extent, and only sampling what's visible on the walls and ceilings leaves uncertainty about the broader potential.

He emphasized that, “you want to be able to blend the high grade and the low grade, such that you have a fairly consistent grade going to the plant,” highlighting the importance of understanding grade variability and distribution through drilling.

This 112-hole delineation program will target three known zones within historic mines, while still leaving key areas between the mines and additional veins for future surface exploration. The underground results will contribute to a preliminary mine plan, including potential head grades and mining approaches.

Looking ahead, a surface drill program will follow to explore other veins such as El Capulin, La Estrella, and Dos de Mayo, which have not been drilled previously.

      <title>RenoWorks Software grows recurring revenue with AI tools for home design platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[RenoWorks Software Inc (TSX-V:RW, OTC:ROWKF) CEO Doug Vickerson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s continued growth and investment focus as it expands its AI-powered home design platform.

Vickerson outlined how RenoWorks is helping users, including homeowners, contractors, and manufacturers, virtually remodel their homes using real manufactured products. He explained that answering the question "What will my remodel project look like when it's done?" is at the core of their offering.

The company has shifted its focus in recent years to grow its licensing and hosting revenues, with the goal of increasing annual recurring revenue (ARR). “We made some significant investment in our product platform… and we're starting to see that come to fruition now,” Vickerson said. He highlighted consistent growth in licensing revenues over the last three quarters, noting that Q3 results showed strong gains alongside margin improvements.

On the innovation front, RenoWorks has been leveraging AI for more than six years. Vickerson said that while AI terminology is widespread today, RenoWorks has long used machine learning, and new advances are enabling what he called “revolutionary” enhancements in design software. The company is working to simplify AI adoption for its customers, especially in exterior renovations, by offering tailored tools for the industry.

Looking ahead to 2026, the company plans to maintain its focus on ARR growth and on enhancing product functionality using the latest AI developments.

      <itunes:subtitle>RenoWorks Software Inc (TSX-V:RW, OTC:ROWKF) CEO Doug Vickerson talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s continued growth and investment focus as it expands its AI-powered home design platform.

Vickerson outlined how RenoWorks is helping users, including homeowners, contractors, and manufacturers, virtually remodel their homes using real manufactured products. He explained that answering the question &quot;What will my remodel project look like when it&apos;s done?&quot; is at the core of their offering.

The company has shifted its focus in recent years to grow its licensing and hosting revenues, with the goal of increasing annual recurring revenue (ARR). “We made some significant investment in our product platform… and we&apos;re starting to see that come to fruition now,” Vickerson said. He highlighted consistent growth in licensing revenues over the last three quarters, noting that Q3 results showed strong gains alongside margin improvements.

On the innovation front, RenoWorks has been leveraging AI for more than six years. Vickerson said that while AI terminology is widespread today, RenoWorks has long used machine learning, and new advances are enabling what he called “revolutionary” enhancements in design software. The company is working to simplify AI adoption for its customers, especially in exterior renovations, by offering tailored tools for the industry.

Looking ahead to 2026, the company plans to maintain its focus on ARR growth and on enhancing product functionality using the latest AI developments.

      <title>OS Therapies targets January BLA filing for OST-HER2 following successful Type C meeting with FDA</title>
      <description><![CDATA[OS Therapies Inc (NYSE-A:OSTX) chief business officer Gerald Commissiong talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent regulatory progress for its OST-HER2 immunotherapy platform targeting osteosarcoma. Commissiong detailed how OS Therapies acquired rights to a listeria-based therapy originally developed by Advaxis and how this technology has evolved into a precision platform targeting HER2-expressing cancers.

The OST-HER2 approach uses attenuated listeria engineered to infect cancer cells, triggering a robust immune response. “Basically, once infected with the listeria, our vector releases additional cancer antigens,” Commissiong explained, noting how this mechanism amplifies immune activity via T cells, NK cells, and dendritic cells.

He outlined progress with regulators, including a Type C meeting with the FDA, pre-marketing discussions with the MHRA in the UK, and a meeting with the European CHMP. “The tenor of those conversations… is around trying to find a pathway to get this drug into patients' hands sooner,” he said, adding that discussions included using historical control data and biomarkers as surrogate endpoints for accelerated approval.

Commissiong also revealed the broader pipeline, including constructs targeting HPV-driven cancers and prostate cancer. Key next steps include biomarker analysis and initiation of a confirmatory study.

      <title>Greengage eyes growth with AQSE IPO plan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Greengage & Co Group Plc founder and CEO Sean Kiernan talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's plans to float on the Access segment of the Aquis Growth Market and its unique Bitcoin yield reserve strategy.

Kiernan explained how Greengage, a fintech platform offering accounts and lending services, is addressing challenges faced by clients in the crypto space and underserved SMEs. The platform facilitates wholesale Bitcoin-backed loans and focuses on private credit lending.

He highlighted the company’s differentiated treasury approach, stating, “Our version is using our own fintech platform... to get a loan against Bitcoin... and then deploy out the loan proceeds to the private credit world.” The strategy seeks to earn a net yield by leveraging Bitcoin through lending, while protecting downside risk using structured loan mechanisms.

Kiernan also shared details about the IPO plans, noting the decision to list on Aquis was driven by strong liquidity in the Bitcoin treasury space. Proceeds from the IPO will largely be used to acquire Bitcoin, which will then be leveraged to fund yield-generating loans.

With over 40 client accounts opened and more than $350 million in loans facilitated to date, Kiernan sees significant growth potential. He said the IPO will help build awareness of the core fintech platform and increase investor engagement, while reinforcing the company’s strategic focus on Bitcoin as a treasury asset.

      <title>Great Southern Copper CEO on recent high-grade hits at Chile project; 2026 driling plan</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Great Southern Copper PLC (LSE:GSCU) chief executive Sam Garrett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest high-grade drilling results at the Cerro Negro project, with a focus on the Mostaza target area. Garrett said recent intercepts confirmed the presence of stacked lenses, potentially increasing the size and value of the copper-silver system. “The realisation in the recent drilling of the potential for stacked lenses is clearly going to give us the opportunity to expand the potential size of this deposit,” he explained.

Metallurgical testing is underway to determine copper and silver recovery rates, which will enable the company to report results in copper or silver equivalents. Garrett said this will offer clearer comparisons with other assets in the sector.

He also highlighted progress at the Viuda Negra prospect, where early drilling indicates a potentially large Maricunga-style gold porphyry system, significant as such systems have not previously been recognised in Chile’s coastal belt. While early gold grades were low, Garrett noted economic grades were intersected in mineralised porphyry zones.

The company recently raised £2.5 million to fund expanded drilling at Especularita, with three rigs now active. Investors can expect news flow from ongoing drilling, further metallurgical updates, and planning for phase four drilling at Mostaza, as well as continued exploration at Viuda Negra and scout drilling across the broader Especularita region.

      <title>Chariot CFO on renewables push as funding is secured for SA wind projects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Chariot Ltd (AIM:CHAR, OTC:OIGLF) chief financial officer Julian Maurice-Williams talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about two key announcements tied to the company’s renewable energy operations in South Africa.

The first announcement covers the financial close of two large-scale wind power projects — Zen (100MW) and Bergriver (94MW) — both located in the Western Cape. Maurice-Williams highlighted that Chariot Generation and Trading, a new subsidiary, owns 24% of the assets alongside project lead Acciona Energía. Construction is set to begin imminently, with commissioning targeted for mid-2027.

The second announcement focuses on the financing of Chariot’s stake. Maurice-Williams explained the multi-layered structure, stating: “We brought in a strategic partner, and we’ve done it all at the subsidiary level… around $100 million net.” Funding sources include $284 million of project finance debt from Standard Bank and Investec, a $17 million equity investment from South African fund Mahlako, and a $9 million mezzanine facility from Standard Bank.

He also outlined how the structure ensures no dilution at the parent level, while retaining control of the renewable business.

Looking ahead to 2026, Chariot aims to generate material revenues from both its renewable and upstream oil and gas arms. Maurice-Williams also noted that the company is exploring the separation of these divisions and has entered discussions with ACWA Power regarding a broader Southern African sustainable energy platform.

Maurice-Williams highlighted that Chariot Generation and Trading, a new subsidiary, owns 24% of the assets alongside project lead Acciona Energía. Construction is set to begin imminently, with commissioning targeted for mid-2027.

The second announcement focuses on the financing of Chariot’s stake. Maurice-Williams explained the multi-layered structure, stating: “We brought in a strategic partner, and we’ve done it all at the subsidiary level… around $100 million net.” Funding sources include $284 million of project finance debt from Standard Bank and Investec, a $17 million equity investment from South African fund Mahlako, and a $9 million mezzanine facility from Standard Bank.

He also outlined how the structure ensures no dilution at the parent level, while retaining control of the renewable business.

Looking ahead to 2026, Chariot aims to generate material revenues from both its renewable and upstream oil and gas arms. Maurice-Williams also noted that the company is exploring the separation of these divisions and has entered discussions with ACWA Power regarding a broader Southern African sustainable energy platform.

      <title>S&amp;U chairman: motor finance momentum to continue following strong Q3</title>
      <description><![CDATA[S&U PLC (LSE:SUS) chairman Anthony Coombs talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's strong growth in the third quarter of 2025 and the outlook for 2026, particularly across its Advantage and Aspen businesses. Coombs said he expects further momentum in 2026, even if the broader economy remains flat, due to increasing market share and the company’s operational improvements.

He highlighted the recent performance of Advantage, the group’s motor finance division, which has seen “record collection rates” and strong loan quality following industry-wide challenges and regulatory scrutiny. “We’ve been trading our socks off for the last 3 or 4 months,” Coombs said, noting the investigation by the FCA is now complete and has confirmed the company’s compliance.

Risk management remains a key focus. Coombs explained that S&U has improved its affordability assessments and credit scoring systems to ensure sustainable growth. The company is also introducing AI to support greater efficiency and customer onboarding.

Discussing funding, he confirmed that net borrowings have risen in line with growth, and longer-term funding options such as securitisation are being explored.

Looking ahead to 2026, Coombs said, “Actually, I see the economy slightly picking up in 2026. But even if it doesn't, we're going to be taking more market share.”

      <title>Geomega Resources: building a royalty model with innovative extraction technologies</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Geomega Resources (TSX-V:GMA) CEO Kiril Mugerman talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s bauxite residue technology and its potential global impact. In the interview, Mugerman explained how Geomega is addressing the 200 million tonnes of bauxite residue generated annually, with over 4.5 billion tonnes currently stored globally.

He detailed the company's clean technology solution designed to convert this industrial waste into value. "This is a technology for bauxite residues," Mugerman said, describing how the waste, which results from aluminum refining, can be treated instead of being left to accumulate in storage ponds.

Mugerman highlighted Geomega’s joint development agreement with Rio Tinto, valued at C$4.5 million, to build a demonstration plant in Saguenay, Quebec. Although the timeline is controlled by Rio Tinto, the goal is to complete the project within approximately two years.

The CEO also spoke about presenting bench-scale results in China, which demonstrated over 90% residue volume reduction and successful performance across six different bauxite residue sources. The next step is to scale to a demonstration plant. “A major company gave the green light to do the next scale up, which is exciting,” he noted.

Mugerman also emphasized the role of government support in advancing the technology readiness level, helping position Geomega for future commercial agreements.

      <title>Sintana advances Challenger deal, updates Orange Basin exploration plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Sintana Energy CEO Robert Bose joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s progress on two major fronts: the advancement of its acquisition of Challenger and new developments across key blocks in Namibia’s Orange Basin.

Bose reported that the planned acquisition of Challenger has now satisfied several significant conditions, including formal consent from ANCAP—Uruguay’s national hydrocarbon regulator—and confirmation from Chevron indicating no objection to the transaction. With these milestones achieved, the deal now only requires final approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.

A Court Sanction Hearing, originally delayed following later-than-expected ANCAP approval, has been rescheduled for December 12. On 26 November 2025, Challenger confirmed that the Scheme of Arrangement received strong shareholder backing, with the requisite majorities approving both the Scheme at the Court Meeting and the related Special Resolution at the General Meeting. Pending court sanction, registration of the Court Order, and satisfaction or waiver of remaining conditions outlined in the Scheme Document, the transaction is expected to become effective on 16 December 2025.

Bose also provided an important operational update on Blocks 2813A and 2814B in Namibia’s Orange Basin—one of the world’s most closely watched offshore exploration regions. The blocks fall under Petroleum Exploration License 83 (PEL 83), currently operated by a subsidiary of Galp. Sintana maintains an indirect 49% interest in Custos Energy, which itself holds a 10% working interest in PEL 83, giving Sintana an effective 4.9% carried interest. NAMCOR, Namibia’s state energy company, holds an additional 10% working interest.

Major structural changes are underway at the asset level. TotalEnergies and Galp have agreed to a transaction that will see TotalEnergies assume operatorship of PEL 83 and secure a 40% participating interest from Galp, which presently owns 80%. As part of the agreement, the parties will initiate a multi-well exploration and appraisal campaign over the next two years, targeting at least three wells aimed at further de-risking the block and defining a potential first development hub within the acreage.

The first exploration well under this new program is currently being assessed for potential drilling in 2026—positioning PEL 83 as a key contributor to the growing momentum in the Orange Basin and reinforcing Sintana’s strategic exposure to one of the most prolific emerging petroleum regions globally.

      <title>Aftermath Silver launches new drill programs at Berenguela and Challacollo projects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of a new, targeted follow-up drilling campaign at the company’s flagship Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project in southern Peru. The program includes approximately 4,000 metres of diamond core drilling and 2,000 metres of reverse circulation (RC) drilling, marking a significant new phase of exploration aimed at further enhancing the project’s resource potential.

Rushton explained that drilling is also set to begin this week at Aftermath Silver’s Challacollo silver-gold project in Region I of northern Chile. At Challacollo, the company plans to complete between 1,000 and 2,000 metres of core drilling as it advances its exploration strategy across multiple high-priority assets.

The decision to accelerate drilling activity reflects both favourable market conditions and strong technical confidence in the projects. Rushton noted that with silver prices currently at elevated levels, the company believes now is the optimal time to advance both exploration and resource growth. At Berenguela, the focus of the program will be on following up high copper grades previously encountered on the eastern side of the existing resource. In addition, infill drilling will target areas believed to represent the most likely location for initial future mining operations.

Rushton emphasized that the campaign is designed not only to expand and upgrade known mineralization but also to support longer-term development planning by improving geological confidence in critical zones of the deposit. With two active drill programs underway in Peru and Chile, Aftermath Silver is positioning itself to capitalize on strong metals markets while advancing its portfolio of advanced-stage silver projects.

      <itunes:summary>Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of a new, targeted follow-up drilling campaign at the company’s flagship Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project in southern Peru. The program includes approximately 4,000 metres of diamond core drilling and 2,000 metres of reverse circulation (RC) drilling, marking a significant new phase of exploration aimed at further enhancing the project’s resource potential.

Rushton explained that drilling is also set to begin this week at Aftermath Silver’s Challacollo silver-gold project in Region I of northern Chile. At Challacollo, the company plans to complete between 1,000 and 2,000 metres of core drilling as it advances its exploration strategy across multiple high-priority assets.

The decision to accelerate drilling activity reflects both favourable market conditions and strong technical confidence in the projects. Rushton noted that with silver prices currently at elevated levels, the company believes now is the optimal time to advance both exploration and resource growth. At Berenguela, the focus of the program will be on following up high copper grades previously encountered on the eastern side of the existing resource. In addition, infill drilling will target areas believed to represent the most likely location for initial future mining operations.

Rushton emphasized that the campaign is designed not only to expand and upgrade known mineralization but also to support longer-term development planning by improving geological confidence in critical zones of the deposit. With two active drill programs underway in Peru and Chile, Aftermath Silver is positioning itself to capitalize on strong metals markets while advancing its portfolio of advanced-stage silver projects.

      <title>Delta Gold Technologies CEO on quantum computing, nano-scale gold and Aquis IPO</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Delta Gold Technologies PLC (AQSE:DGQ) CEO Michael Jones joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio to discuss more about the company’s innovative approach to quantum computing, underpinned by its nanoscale gold-based technology.

Jones explained that while many firms claim to have quantum computers, the core challenge of creating stable and scalable qubits remains unresolved. Delta Gold is focused on a novel method using nanoscale gold to address this challenge, backed by a leading research partnership with the University of Toronto.

“The power of the quantum computer is something that can cross a whole bunch of different sectors, and that gives us a lot of opportunity to look for partners or licensees to our technology,” Jones said.

He highlighted the company’s relationship with Professor Harry Ruda, a globally cited expert who leads Delta Gold’s research efforts, and noted the significant advantage of working within a university ecosystem. Delta Gold has recently listed on the Aquis Stock Exchange, with a market cap now exceeding £10 million following a 50% rise post-IPO.

Capital raised will fund a three-year research programme, with IP development and patent filings planned. Jones confirmed that major stockholders are locked in, reflecting strong confidence in the company’s long-term potential.

      <title>Ilika CEO on end-of-year milestone: 10Ah Goliath battery prototypes shipped on schedule</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika PLC (AIM:IKA, OTCQX:ILIKF) CEO Graeme Purdy talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a significant milestone for the company as it successfully shipped its 10Ah Goliath battery prototypes on schedule. Purdy noted that the delivery reflects the company's commitment to meeting expectations and keeping to its timelines.

The prototypes will now be evaluated by customers, with Ilika expecting collaborative feedback to further refine its solid-state battery technology. Purdy explained that the next key milestone is the development of a 50Ah cell and that licensing discussions are already underway. He emphasised Ilika’s asset-light model, saying that the company does not intend to build large factories itself but will rely on technology transfer and partners to scale up.

Ilika’s pilot line has achieved a 93% yield, which Purdy described as a “really great validation that we have a robust process that is ready for scale up.” This result exceeds typical expectations at this stage and supports the transition towards commercialisation.

The interview also touched on Ilika’s modelling work with Balance Batteries Ltd, which demonstrated potential cost and performance benefits for EV applications. The company claims a 20% reduction in battery pack costs and a corresponding increase in vehicle range when using its technology.

To conclude, Purdy shared that further updates may follow from Ilika’s Stereax product line as the year closes, with half-year results expected in early 2026.

      <title>Fineqia: crypto ETPs show resilience despite market drop</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ) senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the key takeaways from the firm’s November report on crypto exchange-traded products (ETPs), which tracked a 17% drop in crypto assets – closely aligned with a broader 16% market decline. Despite the downturn, Greco noted that outflows from ETPs were minimal, indicating growing maturity and long-term investor confidence in crypto-backed financial products.

“This is a strong vehicle to get exposure to the asset class,” Greco said, emphasizing the resilience of the crypto ETP market.

He highlighted that Bitcoin ETPs saw only $3 billion in outflows despite a 17.5% price drop, suggesting that investors in these products tend to have a longer investment horizon. Similarly, while Ethereum ETPs recorded their first monthly outflows after seven months of inflows, Greco said that, proportional to market cap, Ethereum has attracted relatively stronger demand than Bitcoin.

Regarding altcoin ETPs, Greco pointed to a positive trend driven by recent US ETF approvals for assets like Solana and Dogecoin. He added that the broader range of products could signal the early signs of an "alt season."

Looking ahead, Greco believes the launch of over 300 listed crypto ETPs indicates sustained institutional interest heading into 2026.

      <title>Optima Health CEO: &apos;great demand&apos; fuels 17% revenue growth and M&amp;A push</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Optima Health PLC (AIM:OPT) chief executive Jonathan Thomas talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong first half performance, posting 17% revenue growth. Thomas credited both organic expansion and recent M&A activity, including the acquisitions of Cognate Health in Ireland and Care first, as key contributors.

“The market backdrop is really good. There's great demand for our services. We're winning new business, and we anticipate to continue to grow,” said Thomas.

He outlined how Cognate Health has now been rebranded as Optima Health Ireland, with the company beginning to leverage revenue synergies across jurisdictions. Care first, which complements Optima’s existing EAP and mental health operations, is expected to complete its integration in Q4 of the current financial year.

Thomas also discussed the company’s operational transformation programme, which is designed to improve margins and scale effectively as growth continues. This includes clinical enhancements, automating processes, and optimising central support functions.

The interview also touched on Optima’s £210 million UK Armed Forces contract, now being mobilised, and £8.3 million of new business either signed or at preferred bidder stage—positioning the company for growth into FY27 and FY28.

Looking ahead, Thomas reaffirmed the company’s target of reaching £200 million in revenue and £40 million EBITDA, driven by organic growth, operational efficiency, and further M&A.

He outlined how Cognate Health has now been rebranded as Optima Health Ireland, with the company beginning to leverage revenue synergies across jurisdictions. Care first, which complements Optima’s existing EAP and mental health operations, is expected to complete its integration in Q4 of the current financial year.

Thomas also discussed the company’s operational transformation programme, which is designed to improve margins and scale effectively as growth continues. This includes clinical enhancements, automating processes, and optimising central support functions.

The interview also touched on Optima’s £210 million UK Armed Forces contract, now being mobilised, and £8.3 million of new business either signed or at preferred bidder stage—positioning the company for growth into FY27 and FY28.

Looking ahead, Thomas reaffirmed the company’s target of reaching £200 million in revenue and £40 million EBITDA, driven by organic growth, operational efficiency, and further M&amp;A.

      <title>MustGrow reports strong yield and revenue gains from TerraSante™ in U.S. potato trials</title>
      <description><![CDATA[MustGrow Biologics Corp Chief Operating Officer Colin Bletsky joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce outstanding performance results for the company’s organic TerraSante™ biofertility product, based on large-scale customer performance data from commercial potato operations in Washington State and Idaho. The results demonstrate meaningful improvements in crop yield, size, and overall quality when TerraSante™ is incorporated into existing grower production programs.

Bletsky told Proactive that one Washington State farming customer recorded consistent and substantial improvements in potato yield, tuber size, and crop quality using TerraSante™ at a dose rate of 11 pounds per acre. The performance data was generated on a large commercial potato field, providing a real-world validation of the product’s effectiveness at scale. Based on the improved size, quality, and yield of the crop, the farmer estimated an approximate increase in revenue of US$5,000 per acre, achieved at a product cost of just US$180 per acre for TerraSante™.

Additional work completed across potato fields in Idaho has also demonstrated significant agronomic benefits. These trials showed measurable improvements to both soil health and crop vigor when TerraSante™ was applied within growers’ existing production programs, reinforcing the product’s versatility and compatibility with established farming practices.

TerraSante™ is a mustard-derived, organic biofertilizer formulated as a soluble, mixable product containing nutritious plant proteins and carbohydrates. These inputs are designed to feed both the soil and beneficial soil microbes, helping to improve soil biology, nutrient availability, and overall plant performance in a sustainable manner.

The product is currently registered and approved for sale in six key U.S. agricultural states California, Florida, Arizona, Idaho, Oregon, and Washington. TerraSanteTM is also certified under the Organic Materials Review Institute (OMRI) Listed® program and California’s Organic Input Material (OIM) Program, allowing it to be used in certified organic farming operations.

Bletsky noted that the strong commercial performance data further supports MustGrow’s strategy to commercialize sustainable, high-performance biological solutions that deliver both environmental benefits and compelling economic returns for growers.

      <title>Temas advances La Blache project and RCL metallurgical technology with strong funding in place</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Temas Resources CEO Tim Fernback joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the continued advancement of the company’s La Blache Property in Quebec, along with significant progress on its proprietary metallurgical technology initiatives. Fernback outlined Temas’ unique dual-business model, explaining that the company operates both as a metallurgical technology developer and as an advancing critical minerals exploration and development company focused on titanium, vanadium, and iron.

Fernback noted that Temas has completed approximately 45,000 metres of drilling at the La Blache Property to date, establishing a substantial geological database for the project. He highlighted that the company has already delivered a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), which demonstrates the scale and strength of the asset. The PEA indicates approximately $6.6 billion of in-situ rock value underground with an internal rate of return (IRR) of over 60%, underscoring the project’s robust economic potential.

A key component of Temas’ strategy is its proprietary regenerative chloride leach (RCL) platform technology. Fernback explained that the RCL system is designed to extract metals from complex mineralized rock while recycling reagents within a closed-loop process. By reusing key inputs, the technology is engineered to significantly reduce both operating costs and energy consumption compared to conventional processing methods. According to Fernback, the RCL platform can deliver approximately 65% savings versus traditional metallurgical approaches, positioning it as a potentially disruptive solution for the global mining and processing industry.

Temas is actively evaluating international licensing and joint venture opportunities for the RCL technology, as the company looks to commercialize the platform beyond its own projects and create an additional revenue stream independent of mining operations.

The interview also highlighted the company’s recently completed 2,300-metre drilling program at La Blache, with assay results expected in early 2026. Fernback added that planned work in the coming year includes advancing both the La Blache and Lac Brûlé projects toward feasibility-stage studies, while continuing to strengthen the company’s metallurgical division and expand its technology footprint.

Fernback also pointed to the company’s recently completed Australian initial public offering, which successfully raised $11.00 million. He said the financing leaves Temas fully funded for its upcoming work programs, positioning the company to execute on both its project development and technology growth strategies without near-term funding constraints.

      <title>Scancell’s iSCIB1+ shows 74% PFS in melanoma trial</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Scancell Holdings PLC (AIM:SCLP, OTC:SCNLF) CEO Phillip L’Huillier talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about new clinical data from its phase two melanoma study, known as the SCOPE trial, featuring its lead ImmunoBody candidate, iSCIB1+.

L’Huillier highlighted that the trial has achieved the objectives set out for it, confirming the parameters for the company’s upcoming registrational phase three study. The findings now provide clarity on dosing, patient population, and trial design. “Our SCOPE study…has met the objectives that we set out for it,” he said.

A key point of the discussion focused on the data, which showed a 74% progression-free survival rate at 16 months for iSCIB1+. This compares to 46% at 12 months for the standard of care, which typically includes dual checkpoint inhibitors Ipilimumab and Nivolumab. L’Huillier noted this as a "really strong and durable benefit" on top of existing treatments.

He also addressed how iSCIB1+ performed across patient subgroups where existing therapies are typically less effective—such as BRAF, PD-L1 status, and those with prior checkpoint treatment—with results showing clinically meaningful benefit across all.

Scancell now plans to begin its phase three trial in late 2026, having received supportive regulatory feedback. L’Huillier also said the data has materially strengthened the company’s case for partnering and financing opportunities as part of a dual-track strategy to either partner or proceed independently.

      <title>Surat &amp; Sacramento: Australian Oil expands in the US and Australia</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Australian Oil Company Limited (ASX:AOK) managing director Kane Marshall talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s diversified strategy across gas and oil markets in both the United States and Australia.

Marshall outlined the company's expansion in the Sacramento Basin in California, where it has increased its working interest without a cash outlay. He noted that this consolidation gives the company greater control and positions it well amid rising demand for energy from data centres and critical industries. “We sort of can dictate our own terms, so to speak,” he said, referring to the advantages of consolidation amid recent mergers in the US sector.

In Australia, the company has secured a strategic package in Queensland’s Surat Basin, including producing fields, 3D seismic coverage, and nearby pipeline infrastructure. Marshall pointed out that gas prices remain attractive and that the assets are near a refinery selling oil at AU$100 a barrel, making the economics "extremely attractive".

Marshall emphasised that both the US and Australian markets are “hungry for gas” and the company is delivering on its stated goals by entering these regions. He said the company remains focused on deploying capital into the highest-impact projects and hinted at upcoming exploration efforts in both jurisdictions.

As the company heads into 2026, investors can expect updates on drilling prospects and production increases, particularly in Queensland. Marshall also referenced other active operators in the area and sees further corporate activity as likely.

      <title>Jupiter Origin: investing in global small caps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Jupiter Asset Management lead investment manager Tarlock Randhawa joined Stephen Gunnion the Proactive studio to discuss the investment case for global smaller companies included in the Jupiter Origin Global Smaller Companies Active UCITS ETF (JOGS) and the approach taken by the Jupiter Origin team.

Randhawa outlined the structural advantages of investing in small caps, noting their potential for price appreciation and under-researched nature. "We certainly think that there is a larger opportunity of potential price appreciation in the small-cap space," he said, pointing to the wider universe of opportunities relative to large-cap benchmarks.

He explained that small caps offer more potential upside but come with higher stock-specific risks. To mitigate this, the team diversifies across around 200 names per portfolio. Randhawa also highlighted that the team seeks companies with a proven history of wealth creation, strong future profitability expectations, and attractive valuations.

The Jupiter Origin strategy is built on a rigorous, evidence-based screening process. Starting with a universe of 5,000 stocks, the team applies a mechanical filter based on metrics they believe will lead to outperformance. The final portfolio has over 90% active share compared to the benchmark.

While macroeconomic conditions do not drive the team's decisions, Randhawa acknowledged that the current environment — particularly falling interest rates and valuation gaps between small and large caps — is supportive for smaller companies.

Discussing the team’s background, he noted that the core members have worked together for 25 years, with 15 years of experience in global small caps. The team of five maintains a disciplined, collaborative process to reduce behavioural biases and maintain consistency in strategy execution.

      <title>Millennial Potash advances Gabon Project as global supply pressures grow</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Millennial Potash Chairman Farhad Abasov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the global potash supply landscape and the company’s continued progress on its flagship potash project in Gabon. Abasov highlighted the strategic importance of potash as a critical input for global food security and underscored the vulnerabilities faced by countries that rely heavily on imports.

Abasov noted that the United States currently imports approximately 97% of its potash requirements, with the majority coming from Canada and smaller volumes sourced from Russia and other regions. “If we’re talking about food security and diversifying critical minerals supply chains, then potash specifically is one of the most important things,” he said, emphasizing the geopolitical and economic risks tied to concentrated global supply.

He explained that Millennial Potash’s project in Gabon is uniquely positioned along the Atlantic coast, providing significant logistical and economic advantages. The project’s proximity to deep-water port infrastructure allows for efficient export to major agricultural markets, including the United States, Brazil, and across Africa. Abasov added that the project’s low-cost structure and favorable geography place the company in a strong competitive position within the global potash market.

Abasov also discussed broader trends impacting the fertilizer industry, including rising global demand and the increasing difficulty of developing large-scale potash projects. He referenced recent budget overruns at major industry developments, including those reported by BHP, as evidence of escalating capital costs across the sector. In contrast, he noted that Millennial Potash’s use of solution mining technology materially reduces both capital intensity and environmental impact compared with conventional underground mining methods.

The company has now formally initiated its Environmental and Social Impact Assessment (ESIA), marking a key transition from exploration into the development phase of the project. Abasov confirmed that the ESIA will be conducted in accordance with International Finance Corporation (IFC) Performance Standards and will serve as a critical component of Millennial Potash’s future mining application.

With global fertilizer markets under pressure, supply chains tightening, and food security emerging as a growing strategic priority, Abasov said Millennial Potash is advancing its Gabon project at a time when new, sustainable potash supply is increasingly vital to global agriculture.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai to acquire KraftyLabs to build leading end-to-end AI event platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has signed a definitive agreement to acquire KraftyLabs, an AI-powered virtual and in-person event engagement platform serving a global enterprise client base. KraftyLabs’ customers include major technology and multinational brands such as Google, Netflix, Meta, Oracle, Microsoft, Cisco, Dropbox, and more than 400 additional Fortune 500 and international companies. The two companies have now entered a formal due diligence and integration phase, with the transaction expected to close in the first week of January 2026.

Gappelberg told Proactive that KraftyLabs has generated more than US$1.1 million in revenue year-to-date, reflecting strong demand for its enterprise-focused engagement solutions. The company specializes in delivering immersive virtual team-building experiences, leadership development sessions, corporate training programs, employee wellness initiatives, and cross-cultural learning formats for distributed global workforces. More recently, KraftyLabs expanded into in-person enterprise events, opening a new high-growth segment alongside its established virtual and hybrid offerings.

With the addition of KraftyLabs, alongside Nextech3D.ai’s existing acquisitions of Map Dynamics and Eventdex, the company now supports more than 1,000 customers worldwide. The expanded client roster includes many of the world’s largest and most recognizable brands, significantly strengthening Nextech3D.ai’s enterprise footprint and recurring revenue potential.

Gappelberg said the KraftyLabs acquisition is a strategic step in Nextech3D.ai’s broader vision to create a fully unified, AI-driven event ecosystem. Once integrated, the combined platform is expected to become what the company believes will be the most advanced and innovative end-to-end AI Event Solution available in the market. The consolidated offering will be capable of powering virtual, in-person, hybrid, and large-scale enterprise events through a single, unified technology stack.
The acquisition positions Nextech3D.ai to capitalize on accelerating global demand for intelligent event platforms that enhance engagement, improve data analytics, and streamline execution across multiple delivery formats. 

Gappelberg noted that the integration of KraftyLabs’ engagement capabilities with Nextech3D.ai’s existing AI, data, and event infrastructure is expected to unlock new growth opportunities across enterprise, education, and global corporate communications markets.

      <itunes:subtitle>Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has signed a definitive agreement to acquire KraftyLabs, an AI-powered virtual and in-person event engagement platform serving a global enterprise client base. KraftyLabs’ customers include major technology and multinational brands such as Google, Netflix, Meta, Oracle, Microsoft, Cisco, Dropbox, and more than 400 additional Fortune 500 and international companies. The two companies have now entered a formal due diligence and integration phase, with the transaction expected to close in the first week of January 2026.

Gappelberg told Proactive that KraftyLabs has generated more than US$1.1 million in revenue year-to-date, reflecting strong demand for its enterprise-focused engagement solutions. The company specializes in delivering immersive virtual team-building experiences, leadership development sessions, corporate training programs, employee wellness initiatives, and cross-cultural learning formats for distributed global workforces. More recently, KraftyLabs expanded into in-person enterprise events, opening a new high-growth segment alongside its established virtual and hybrid offerings.

With the addition of KraftyLabs, alongside Nextech3D.ai’s existing acquisitions of Map Dynamics and Eventdex, the company now supports more than 1,000 customers worldwide. The expanded client roster includes many of the world’s largest and most recognizable brands, significantly strengthening Nextech3D.ai’s enterprise footprint and recurring revenue potential.

Gappelberg said the KraftyLabs acquisition is a strategic step in Nextech3D.ai’s broader vision to create a fully unified, AI-driven event ecosystem. Once integrated, the combined platform is expected to become what the company believes will be the most advanced and innovative end-to-end AI Event Solution available in the market. The consolidated offering will be capable of powering virtual, in-person, hybrid, and large-scale enterprise events through a single, unified technology stack.

      <title>Ariana Resources MD on A$8m equity injection for Dokwe gold project in Zimbabwe</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ariana Resources PLC (AIM:AAU, ASX:AA2) managing director Kerim Sener talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a new A$8 million equity investment deal that will help fund the Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) at the Dokwe gold project in Zimbabwe.

Sener explained that the investment is coming from Hongkong Xinhai Mining Services, a Chinese EPC contractor with substantial expertise in metallurgical test work and engineering. He noted: “There’s a A$500,000 signing fee being paid, which is part and parcel of that A$8 million equity investment.” The deal is structured through Ariana’s listing in Australia and will involve technical services agreements covering metallurgical sampling and contributions to the DFS.

The investment includes A$1 million in CDIs for metallurgical test work and up to A$2 million on completion of the DFS. Sener described it as a “very strong endorsement of the Dokwe project and what we’re doing in Zimbabwe.”

He added that Xinhai already has a presence in-country, having built a 2 million tonne per annum lithium plant and is constructing its own gold mine in central Zimbabwe. With Xinhai’s involvement, Ariana expects to accelerate the DFS timeline, potentially completing it in late 2026.

      <title>IXICO CEO on 2025 results &amp; 2026 growth outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[IXICO PLC (LSE:IXI, OTC:PHYOF) CEO Bram Goorden takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company’s full-year 2025 results and its outlook for 2026.

Goorden confirmed a 13% increase in revenue to £6.5 million, driven by diversification into new trials in Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease, contract extensions with existing clients, and expansion into blood-based biomarkers and diagnostics.

He highlighted that this strategic focus has already led to a new win in Alzheimer’s disease after the reporting period. Looking forward, Goorden said the company is forecasting £7.5 million in revenue for full-year 2026, representing 15% growth, and expects gross margins to exceed 50%.

A key driver of future performance will be IXICO’s continued investment in technology. “Especially that integration space… we are looking at how we can start to integrate the IXIQ platform with some of these major players that we are partnering with,” he said. Automation and platform integration with larger data and CRO platforms are seen as pivotal in scaling operations.

Goorden reaffirmed IXICO’s commitment to the central nervous system (CNS) space, stating, “We very much believe in this focus strategy, and it’s actually what makes us also that global leader in that space.”

      <title>Zoomcar targets massive growth in emerging markets with “Airbnb for Cars” model</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Zoomcar Holdings Chairman Uri Levine joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss how the company is addressing major mobility challenges across emerging markets with its peer-to-peer car-sharing platform. Levine described Zoomcar as the “Airbnb for cars,” offering flexible transportation solutions in regions where private vehicle ownership remains limited and traditional rental options are often expensive or inaccessible.

“In emerging markets, the ratio of vehicles per household could be as low as 0.1,” Levine explained, underscoring the scale of unmet transportation demand. He contrasted this with the United States, where the average household owns more than two vehicles. This stark difference, he noted, creates a powerful opportunity for Zoomcar to bridge the mobility gap by making vehicles accessible on a short-term, on-demand basis.

Zoomcar’s business model focuses on unlocking the value of underutilized vehicles—cars that would otherwise sit idle up to 96% of the time—and connecting them with consumers who need convenient, short-term access to transportation. India currently represents Zoomcar’s largest market, where the platform now hosts approximately 40,000 vehicles and serves around 10 million users. Levine emphasized the magnitude of the growth opportunity, stating that the market in India alone has the potential for 100-fold expansion over time.

He noted that roughly 91% of trips on the platform are short-term rentals, typically lasting about two days. These rentals are commonly used for everyday needs such as shopping, attending events, or taking quick weekend trips, highlighting Zoomcar’s role as a flexible mobility solution for daily life rather than just long-distance travel.

While similar platforms, such as Turo, operate primarily in developed markets, Levine said Zoomcar’s model is especially well-suited to India and other emerging economies because of the high upfront cost of vehicle ownership and limited financing options for consumers. This makes car sharing not just a convenience, but a practical necessity for a growing middle class.

Levine also highlighted Zoomcar’s improving financial performance, noting that the company has now achieved eight consecutive quarters of profitability and operates in 99 cities across India. Insurance coverage is structured in line with other global mobility platforms, either through third-party partnerships or self-insurance in larger markets, depending on scale and regulatory requirements.

With strong user growth, expanding geographic reach, and sustained profitability, Levine said Zoomcar is well positioned to continue scaling its platform and transforming personal mobility across emerging markets.

      <title>NextSource Materials CEO on investor tour of UAE Battery Anode Facility and next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX:NEXT, OTCQB:NSRCF) President and CEO Hanré Rossouw talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest progress at the Abu Dhabi site for its graphite processing facility. The discussion followed a recent site visit, which included local and international investors and potential financing partners.

Rossouw emphasized the advantages of the facility's location in the Industrial City of Abu Dhabi, citing expedited permitting, existing infrastructure, and a 60,000m² warehouse already in place. This turns the project from a traditional construction into a faster “installation project,” significantly reducing the development timeline.

Key milestones in the coming months include the finalization of engineering design and securing funding. Rossouw noted that visitors were able to see “the 3D modelling already of the equipment being installed,” signalling the advanced stage of preparation.

NextSource has already secured a multi-year offtake agreement with Mitsubishi Chemical for 9,000 tonnes of annual production from the facility’s first phase. Discussions are underway to secure the remaining capacity of 5,000 tonnes and potentially increase output in the first phase. The facility is a cornerstone of the company’s vertical integration strategy, with feedstock supplied by its Molo mine and supplemented by third-party sources.

      <itunes:summary>NextSource Materials Inc. (TSX:NEXT, OTCQB:NSRCF) President and CEO Hanré Rossouw talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest progress at the Abu Dhabi site for its graphite processing facility. The discussion followed a recent site visit, which included local and international investors and potential financing partners.

Rossouw emphasized the advantages of the facility&apos;s location in the Industrial City of Abu Dhabi, citing expedited permitting, existing infrastructure, and a 60,000m² warehouse already in place. This turns the project from a traditional construction into a faster “installation project,” significantly reducing the development timeline.

Key milestones in the coming months include the finalization of engineering design and securing funding. Rossouw noted that visitors were able to see “the 3D modelling already of the equipment being installed,” signalling the advanced stage of preparation.

NextSource has already secured a multi-year offtake agreement with Mitsubishi Chemical for 9,000 tonnes of annual production from the facility’s first phase. Discussions are underway to secure the remaining capacity of 5,000 tonnes and potentially increase output in the first phase. The facility is a cornerstone of the company’s vertical integration strategy, with feedstock supplied by its Molo mine and supplemented by third-party sources.

      <title>Arizona Gold &amp; Silver expands Perry Zone as drill widths double in latest results</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arizona Gold and Silver CEO Mike Stark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s latest drilling results from the Perry claim, highlighting a continued run of strong performance across multiple recent drill holes. Stark described the latest intercept as another significant success, noting both the growth in scale and the evolving geological interpretation of the system.

“We’ve got a great, great hit here again, but it’s double the width of 156,” Stark said, explaining that increased rock shattering has allowed gold mineralization to penetrate more broadly through the host rocks. The company has now recorded six consecutive successful drill hits down-dip to a depth of approximately 1,200 feet, maintaining a consistent step-out pattern of about 60 metres between holes.

Stark explained that while the grade in hole 157 is slightly lower than the exceptionally high-grade intercept reported in hole 156, the total mineralized interval has doubled in width to an impressive 78 metres. This materially extends the footprint of the mineralized system and strengthens the case for a larger-scale deposit. He added that hole 158 has just been completed and appears to display similar geological and mineralization characteristics. High-grade gold values remain present, with assays reaching up to 13 grams per tonne in both the hanging wall and footwall.

The company’s understanding of the geological framework continues to sharpen with each successive drill result. Stark noted that the data reinforces the view that the mineralizing system is “extremely robust,” with strong structural evidence pointing to significant historic geological forces at work. The widths now being encountered are far greater than what is typically seen in the Oatman mining district, prompting comparisons to broader, Nevada-style gold deposits.

Confidence continues to build as Arizona Gold and Silver advances its drilling program, with hole 159 already underway to further test the depth and continuity of the expanding mineralized corridor.
Stark also highlighted improvements in the company’s financial position. All in-the-money options have been exercised without associated selling pressure, contributing to a strengthening treasury and providing additional flexibility to support ongoing exploration and development activities.

      <title>Middlefield International CEO sees better value in Canadian equities vs US market</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Middlefield International President and CEO Dean Orrico talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the outlook for the Middlefield Canadian Enhanced Income UCITS ETF as 2026 approaches. The ETF is weighted towards Canadian equities with a focus on energy, financials, and real estate — sectors Orrico believes offer discounted valuations and strong earnings potential.

Orrico explained that Canadian stocks trade at a significant discount to the S&P 500, while still delivering consistent earnings and dividend growth. “Our portfolio, including those four sectors, has generated average dividend growth of about 7 to 8%,” he said, and expects this trend to continue into 2026.

On energy, Orrico highlighted recent federal policy shifts supporting Canadian energy infrastructure, including a new pipeline and LNG facility, as well as investment in carbon capture technologies. These initiatives, he said, aim to position Canada as an “energy superpower.”

He also underscored the strength and stability of Canadian banks, noting they haven’t cut dividends since World War II. Real estate, particularly open-air retail, seniors housing, and industrial assets, was also highlighted as offering solid fundamentals due to constrained supply and strong population-driven demand.

      <title>RC Fornax CEO on bumper Q1 trading update, new space contract</title>
      <description><![CDATA[RC Fornax PLC (AIM:RCFX) CEO Paul Reeves joined Stephen Gunnion in the Proactive studio with more about the company's record-breaking performance, highlighting a significant surge in new contract wins and operational momentum.

Reeves explained that RC Fornax secured £2.5 million in total orders in the latest quarter, including £2.2 million in new work. He noted that this increase reflects internal structural improvements, such as hiring a new head of sales and managing director, alongside refined sales processes. "It's a combination of a number of things — changes, process changes, people changes — which ultimately is bearing fruit now," he said.

Reeves also pointed to improving industry conditions. With uncertainty in the defence sector subsiding, tier one contractors have resumed spending, which has positively impacted RC Fornax.

A key strategic development is the company’s first major public sector space contract in the UK. Reeves said this marks a shift in approach, tapping into framework agreements that offer “billions of spend year on year.” RC Fornax will lead a consortium for this work and retain all developed IP, supporting its transition from a service provider to a product-focused business.

      <title>Poolbeg Pharma in MRC-backed cancer immunotherapy study</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Poolbeg Pharma PLC (AIM:POLB, OTC:POLBF) CEO Jeremy Skillington and Principal Scientist Liam Tremble talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s involvement in the RISE research programme focused on cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in cancer immunotherapy. 

The University of Manchester and The Christie NHS Foundation Trust research programme titled RISE —short for Reducing Immune Stress from Excessive cytokine release from advanced therapies—is led by Dr Jonathan Lim and has received a £3.4 million grant from the UK’s Medical Research Council.

 Skillington explained that Poolbeg Pharma will act as the lead business partner alongside Johnson & Johnson, and other partners. Poolbeg's previously announced upcoming TOPICAL trial examining its lead candidate POLB 001 will play a central role in the programme. Importantly, Johnson & Johnson will provide the approved bispecific antibody, teclistamab, for that trial. “We’re very proud that POLB 001 has actually played a really key part to this,” Skillington said. 

 Tremble noted the growing clinical challenge posed by CRS in advanced immunotherapies and how POLB 001 may offer a solution. “This really puts POLB 001 in a centrepoint position in cytokine release syndrome as a potential solution,” he said.

The company confirmed the initiative will not impact its cash runway into 2027, nor will it impact delivery of the TOPICAL trial, with interim data  expected in summer 2026.

      <itunes:summary>Poolbeg Pharma PLC (AIM:POLB, OTC:POLBF) CEO Jeremy Skillington and Principal Scientist Liam Tremble talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s involvement in the RISE research programme focused on cytokine release syndrome (CRS) in cancer immunotherapy. 

The University of Manchester and The Christie NHS Foundation Trust research programme titled RISE —short for Reducing Immune Stress from Excessive cytokine release from advanced therapies—is led by Dr Jonathan Lim and has received a £3.4 million grant from the UK’s Medical Research Council.

 Skillington explained that Poolbeg Pharma will act as the lead business partner alongside Johnson &amp; Johnson, and other partners. Poolbeg&apos;s previously announced upcoming TOPICAL trial examining its lead candidate POLB 001 will play a central role in the programme. Importantly, Johnson &amp; Johnson will provide the approved bispecific antibody, teclistamab, for that trial. “We’re very proud that POLB 001 has actually played a really key part to this,” Skillington said. 

 Tremble noted the growing clinical challenge posed by CRS in advanced immunotherapies and how POLB 001 may offer a solution. “This really puts POLB 001 in a centrepoint position in cytokine release syndrome as a potential solution,” he said.

The company confirmed the initiative will not impact its cash runway into 2027, nor will it impact delivery of the TOPICAL trial, with interim data  expected in summer 2026.

      <title>Iofina expands with new IOsorb collaboration planned for Permian Basin</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Iofina PLC (AIM:IOF, OTC:IOFNF) CEO Dr Tom Becker talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s newly announced IOsorb plant, set to be constructed in partnership with Western Midstream Partners in the Permian Basin.

The plant will be Iofina’s largest to date, with the ability to process up to 50,000 barrels of brine water per day. It is expected to come online in Q3 of 2026, contributing to a significant increase in iodine production and revenue the following year.

“This plant, we expect to be online in the third quarter of next year,” said Becker, noting that 2026 revenues and iodine volumes would be “significantly higher than the previous year” due to contributions from both the new plant and IO#11.

He also discussed the company’s partnership with Western Midstream, which brings strong technical capabilities in water handling and reuse. Western manages over 2.5 million barrels of water daily, and the collaboration opens the door to further expansion in the Permian Basin and beyond.

The new plant is expected to cost between $8 to $9 million, with the company confident in both timeline and budget. Becker confirmed that most materials have already been sourced, and lead times are favourable.

Becker added that existing Iofina plants continue to deliver strong performance, with record production months in Q3 and an expected 400 to 440 metric tons of crystalline iodine output in H2 2025.

      <title>Anthony Ginsburg talks Tech Megatrend ETF including AI, Genomics &amp; M&amp;A tailwinds</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Anthony Ginsberg, CEO of GinsGlobal Index Fund, recently spoke with Steve Darling from Proactive about the latest developments shaping the Tech Megatrend ETF and the powerful forces driving performance across some of the world’s fastest-moving technology sectors. Ginsberg outlined how the fund continues to evolve in step with emerging innovation while benefiting from broad macroeconomic tailwinds.

Ginsberg explained that the ETF has recently expanded its thematic coverage to include both defense technology and quantum computing, further diversifying its exposure to high-growth innovation areas. These additions complement the fund’s established themes, which include cloud computing, digital entertainment, blockchain, and social media.

 He highlighted blockchain as a standout performer, noting that the segment has risen more than 50%. “Blockchain… has been up over 50%,” Ginsberg said, adding that strong contributions from digital entertainment and cloud computing have also supported overall performance.

He also pointed to growing strength in genomics and gene editing, emphasizing how artificial intelligence is transforming research and development activity across biotechnology. Ginsberg explained that AI is dramatically accelerating drug discovery and development timelines, allowing technologies such as CRISPR gene editing to advance far more rapidly than traditional pharmaceutical approaches. This convergence of AI and biotech, he noted, is creating a powerful new growth engine within the broader tech ecosystem.

Beyond sector-specific trends, Ginsberg discussed several macro factors providing tailwinds for the technology market. These include easing inflation, the expectation of interest rate cuts, a weaker U.S. dollar, and a pickup in mergers and acquisitions as regulatory conditions shift. He cited Netflix’s acquisition of Warner Brothers as an example of the ongoing global convergence across digital media and content platforms, a trend he believes is still in its early stages. He also noted that valuations in small- and mid-cap technology companies remain attractive relative to long-term growth potential.

Looking ahead to 2026, Ginsberg sees continued expansion of artificial intelligence across multiple verticals, including cloud computing, cybersecurity, hyperscalers, and digital entertainment. He added that surging demand for data-center infrastructure is providing strong underlying support for this growth, reinforcing the long-term investment case for the technology megatrend.

      <title>Aftermath expands Berenguela M&amp;I resource by 28% after successful infill drilling</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to release an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for its Berenguela project in southern Peru, confirming and significantly expanding upon its previous 2023 Mineral Resources. 

The new estimate is based on the most comprehensive geological model of the Berenguela deposit compiled to date, materially enhancing the overall understanding of the scale, structure, and metal distribution of the deposit. Notably, approximately 90% of the company’s recent 2024/2025 drilling program was conducted within the boundaries of the historic resource, allowing for meaningful resource upgrades rather than purely exploratory growth.

The recent infill drilling campaign successfully converted a substantial portion of the resource from the Inferred category to the higher-confidence Measured and Indicated (M&I) category. As a result, combined M&I resources increased by 11.37 million tonnes, or 28.3%, bringing the total to 51.55 million tonnes. This upgrade materially strengthens the project’s development profile by reducing geological risk and improving the reliability of future mine planning and economic studies.

Contained metal within the M&I category has also increased significantly compared with the 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate. Silver resources rose by 21.3 million ounces, a 21% increase, bringing total M&I silver to 122.5 million ounces, with an additional 22.0 million ounces remaining in the Inferred category. 

Manganese M&I resources increased to 2.93 million tonnes, with a further 0.47 million tonnes classified as Inferred. Copper M&I resources climbed to 717.1 million pounds, supported by 118.4 million pounds of Inferred copper, while zinc M&I resources reached 372.4 million pounds, along with 80 million pounds in the Inferred category.

The upgrade from Inferred to M&I resulted in a corresponding decrease of 7.96 million tonnes in the total Inferred resource inventory, reflecting the improved confidence in the geological model and data density across the deposit.

The updated MRE is underpinned by a robust geological database that incorporates results from 439 drill holes. This includes 82 diamond drill holes totaling 5,329 metres completed by Aftermath during the 2024/2025 drilling campaign. In total, 44,842 metres of drilling have now been completed at Berenguela, comprising 20,346 metres of diamond drilling and 24,496 metres of reverse circulation (RC) drilling.

The previous resource estimate, documented in the NI 43-101 technical report titled “Berenguela Mineral Resource Estimate NI 43-101 Aftermath Silver Ltd., Province of Lampa, Department of Puno, Peru,” was prepared by AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd. and carried an effective date of March 30, 2023. The new estimate builds directly on this foundation with significantly higher data density and geological confidence.

      <itunes:subtitle>Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to release an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) for its Berenguela project in southern Peru, confirming and significantly expanding upon its previous 2023 Mineral Resources. 

The new estimate is based on the most comprehensive geological model of the Berenguela deposit compiled to date, materially enhancing the overall understanding of the scale, structure, and metal distribution of the deposit. Notably, approximately 90% of the company’s recent 2024/2025 drilling program was conducted within the boundaries of the historic resource, allowing for meaningful resource upgrades rather than purely exploratory growth.

The recent infill drilling campaign successfully converted a substantial portion of the resource from the Inferred category to the higher-confidence Measured and Indicated (M&amp;I) category. As a result, combined M&amp;I resources increased by 11.37 million tonnes, or 28.3%, bringing the total to 51.55 million tonnes. This upgrade materially strengthens the project’s development profile by reducing geological risk and improving the reliability of future mine planning and economic studies.

Contained metal within the M&amp;I category has also increased significantly compared with the 2023 Mineral Resource Estimate. Silver resources rose by 21.3 million ounces, a 21% increase, bringing total M&amp;I silver to 122.5 million ounces, with an additional 22.0 million ounces remaining in the Inferred category. 

Manganese M&amp;I resources increased to 2.93 million tonnes, with a further 0.47 million tonnes classified as Inferred. Copper M&amp;I resources climbed to 717.1 million pounds, supported by 118.4 million pounds of Inferred copper, while zinc M&amp;I resources reached 372.4 million pounds, along with 80 million pounds in the Inferred category.

The upgrade from Inferred to M&amp;I resulted in a corresponding decrease of 7.96 million tonnes in the total Inferred resource inventory, reflecting the improved confidence in the geological model and data density across the deposit.

The updated MRE is underpinned by a robust geological database that incorporates results from 439 drill holes. This includes 82 diamond drill holes totaling 5,329 metres completed by Aftermath during the 2024/2025 drilling campaign. In total, 44,842 metres of drilling have now been completed at Berenguela, comprising 20,346 metres of diamond drilling and 24,496 metres of reverse circulation (RC) drilling.

The previous resource estimate, documented in the NI 43-101 technical report titled “Berenguela Mineral Resource Estimate NI 43-101 Aftermath Silver Ltd., Province of Lampa, Department of Puno, Peru,” was prepared by AMC Mining Consultants (Canada) Ltd. and carried an effective date of March 30, 2023. The new estimate builds directly on this foundation with significantly higher data density and geological confidence.

      <title>SkinBioTherapeutics CEO on strong 2025 growth as new deals add momentum</title>
      <description><![CDATA[SkinBioTherapeutics PLC (AIM:SBTX) CEO Stuart Ashman talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's strong financial and strategic progress in 2025.

Ashman highlighted a 284% increase in revenue to £4.6 million, a 319% rise in gross profit, and a 62% reduction in operating losses, noting the results were in line with market expectations. He said, “We’ve achieved pretty much exactly what was expected by the market.”

The company advanced its five-pillar skin health strategy, with particular developments in cosmetics and gut-skin axis supplements. Its cosmetic ingredient SkinBiotix, branded as Zenakine by partner Croda, launched in April and is generating strong industry interest, including winning an award at the In-Cosmetics Asia event.

Additionally, AxisBiotix products targeting acne and psoriasis were launched through an exclusive two-year deal with Superdrug, now available in 180 stores with plans for wider rollout.

SkinBioTherapeutics also progressed its acquisition strategy, integrating Dermonix and Bio-Tech Solutions. Ashman noted these contributed meaningful revenue and manufacturing capability, strengthening internal operations and product development.

Looking ahead, the company expects £6.2 million in revenue and £700,000 in adjusted EBITDA for the next financial year, maintaining confidence in future growth.

      <title>NextEnergy Solar Fund delivers strong interim results as generation beats forecast</title>
      <description><![CDATA[NextEnergy Solar Fund Investment Diretor Stephen Rosser joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s strong interim financial and operational results, as well as its strategic outlook through 2026. Rosser highlighted a period of robust performance across the portfolio, underscored by higher-than-expected solar output and disciplined asset management.

During the six months to September, NextEnergy Solar Fund generated a total of 627 gigawatt hours of electricity. This outperformance was supported by solar irradiation levels that were approximately 13% ahead of forecast, resulting in overall generation exceeding expectations by 7.6%. “We generated 627 gigawatt hours in the period. Solar irradiation was about 13% ahead of forecast, which put our generation ahead by 7.6%,” Rosser said.

The strong operational delivery contributed an additional £2.5 million in cash during the period. Rosser attributed this to both favourable weather conditions and the company’s disciplined approach to asset management, including the proactive replacement of aging infrastructure such as inverters to maintain high levels of availability and efficiency across the portfolio.

The interview also addressed recent governance developments, including the appointment of Tony Quinlan as chair following an independent board selection process. Rosser emphasized Quinlan’s deep experience in the UK electricity market and renewable energy sector, describing his leadership as a valuable addition as the fund continues to execute its long-term growth and capital strategy.

Rosser confirmed that NextEnergy Solar Fund has formally responded to the UK government’s ROC/FiT consultation, urging that no changes be made to legacy renewable support schemes. He noted that any retrospective adjustments could undermine investor confidence and potentially increase costs for consumers across the energy system.

Looking ahead, Rosser discussed the company’s ongoing strategic review and its continued focus on maintaining a disciplined capital structure and active capital recycling, now entering its fourth phase. He also pointed to the fund’s strong income track record, with a total of £419.0 million in dividends declared or paid to shareholders since the fund’s IPO. Together, these factors position NextEnergy Solar Fund to continue delivering stable returns while navigating a changing energy and regulatory landscape.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain signs 3rd ASIC NDA; CEO discusses positive progress</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s progress in signing non-disclosure agreements (NDAs) with ASIC manufacturers, marking the third such agreement in recent months. These agreements, Gardin explained, reflect deep industry interest and rigorous due diligence processes from potential partners.

The company has prioritized the software version of its Method C AI Oracle software, enabling a faster commercial rollout than the hardware version. Gardin said, “Thanks to our AI development team, they came up with the software version, which means that we can install this version on the operating system, reducing deployment time to weeks rather than a year and a half.”

This software approach allows for integration into existing systems without altering hardware, positioning Quantum Blockchain Technologies to offer significant performance boosts to mining operations.

Gardin confirmed that these NDAs have taken months of engagement, highlighting the thorough assessment from large organisations. He noted that while initial reactions to their technology were skeptical, “Then we show the numbers and they start to say, maybe that's not really impossible.”

The company is exploring multiple revenue avenues, including licensing fees per system sold, share of hash rates, or even direct mining. Gardin also addressed the company’s intellectual property strategy, noting a selective approach to patent filings in order to protect proprietary discoveries over the long term.

      <title>TNR Gold&apos;s Kirill Klip ascribes 200% share surge for 2025 to M&amp;A momentum</title>
      <description><![CDATA[TNR Gold Corp (TSX-V:TNR, OTC:TRRXF) executive chairman Kirill Klip talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 200% share price increase since its last corporate update in May, crediting a disciplined M&A strategy focused on minimizing dilution, reducing administrative costs, and executing growth plans. Klip said, “We are building wealth for our shareholders, and we would like now to focus on another 100% plus for our share price”.

He outlined that strategic partnerships are now being considered instead of selling valuable royalty assets, and highlighted the company’s focus on maintaining capital discipline, buying back shares, and distributing cash flow to shareholders. Importantly, TNR does not intend to invest capital into developing the Shotgun Gold Project in Alaska, but rather aims to bring in a major partner to fund the development and potentially spin out the asset.

Klip also provided updates on royalty assets. He said the Mariana Lithium project, operated by Ganfeng, is progressing well with initial royalty payments expected within weeks. He also commented on the Los Azules copper project, now backed by Rob McEwen, where royalty revenue could reach up to $10 million per year, with industry valuations of the royalty as high as $50 million.

      <itunes:summary>TNR Gold Corp (TSX-V:TNR, OTC:TRRXF) executive chairman Kirill Klip talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s 200% share price increase since its last corporate update in May, crediting a disciplined M&amp;A strategy focused on minimizing dilution, reducing administrative costs, and executing growth plans. Klip said, “We are building wealth for our shareholders, and we would like now to focus on another 100% plus for our share price”.

He outlined that strategic partnerships are now being considered instead of selling valuable royalty assets, and highlighted the company’s focus on maintaining capital discipline, buying back shares, and distributing cash flow to shareholders. Importantly, TNR does not intend to invest capital into developing the Shotgun Gold Project in Alaska, but rather aims to bring in a major partner to fund the development and potentially spin out the asset.

Klip also provided updates on royalty assets. He said the Mariana Lithium project, operated by Ganfeng, is progressing well with initial royalty payments expected within weeks. He also commented on the Los Azules copper project, now backed by Rob McEwen, where royalty revenue could reach up to $10 million per year, with industry valuations of the royalty as high as $50 million.

      <title>Digitalbox CEO on market-beating performance and growth drivers</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Digitalbox PLC (AIM:DBOX) CEO James Carter talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s stronger-than-expected performance for 2025 and strategic plans going into 2026.

Carter said that EBITDA will be significantly ahead of market expectations, while revenue remains broadly in line. He highlighted how Digitalbox has “delivered all that we set out to deliver, more efficiently than we perhaps planned to at the beginning of the year,” noting that the business has remained agile in challenging conditions.

A key factor in the company’s growth was the success of its vertical strategy, particularly through launches such as Royal Insider and Reality Shrine, which have helped it build valuable US audiences. These audiences tend to monetise at roughly twice the rate of UK users.

Digitalbox is also seeing promising returns from its platform business. According to Carter, platform revenue is expected to reach around £1 million, up from near-zero levels just a few years ago. He said, “We’re looking at opportunities that enable us to extend our own platform business as well as our open web business”.

Another growth area is TV Guide, a property the company acquired and modernised. By improving its mobile experience and introducing new content sections, Digitalbox has doubled the site’s size over two years, with around 50% of traffic now coming from Google.

On M&A, Carter said the company is considering opportunities aligned with its entertainment-focused model, as well as potential diversification. He also acknowledged sector challenges, particularly around AI disruption and the evolving role of platforms like Google.

      <title>Rio Tinto produces first copper at Gunnison’s Johnson Camp mine using Nuton bioleaching technology</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Gunnison Copper Corp Chief Operating Officer Robert Winton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major milestone at the Johnson Camp mine in Arizona, where Rio Tinto has successfully produced its first copper using the company’s proprietary Nuton® bioleaching technology. The achievement marks a pivotal step forward in the commercial development and validation of this next-generation copper processing method.

Winton told Proactive that after more than three decades of research and development, the first copper cathode produced with Nuton’s bioleaching process was successfully generated last month at the Johnson Camp mine. The technology deployment includes the design and delivery of a full heap leach technology package that is expected to target production of approximately 30,000 tonnes of refined copper over a four-year demonstration period. Rio Tinto is also actively engaging with several potential customers across the United States as part of its efforts to support and strengthen the domestic copper supply chain.

Nuton technology uses naturally occurring microorganisms to extract copper from primary sulphide materials, which are traditionally among the most difficult ores to process using conventional methods. These microbes accelerate the oxidation of the mineralized material, generating heat and enabling copper to dissolve into a leach solution, which is then recovered and processed into 99.99% pure copper cathode.

One of the most significant advantages of the Nuton process is that it eliminates the need for traditional concentration, smelting, and refining. This shortens supply chains and allows refined copper cathode to be produced directly at the mine gate. The technology can achieve copper recovery rates of up to 85% from primary sulphides, which represent the most abundant copper-bearing materials globally.

In addition to improving recoveries, Nuton has the potential to extend mine life and maximize overall resource utilization by extracting economic value from mineralized material that would otherwise be classified as waste. This capability can increase both yield and revenue at new developments as well as at existing mining operations.

From an environmental standpoint, Nuton is expected to significantly outperform conventional copper processing routes, with up to 80% less water usage and as much as 60% lower carbon emissions compared to the traditional concentrator-smelter pathway.

While the first copper production confirms the engineering design and operational viability of the Nuton system, Winton noted that the next phase of the project will focus on validating the long-term technical performance of the technology under sustained operating conditions.

      <title>American Resources secures $5M credit line to expand critical mineral feedstock supply</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp CFO Kirk Taylor joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has secured a $5 million inventory line of credit with Old National Bank, a financing milestone that strengthens its ability to scale critical mineral operations. The new credit facility will enable American Resources to finance the acquisition of end-of-life materials, manufacturing scrap, ores, and concentrates that will be processed into high-value mineral feedstocks.

These feedstocks will be supplied to ReElement Technologies, American Resources’ minority-owned subsidiary and a leading U.S.-based refiner, for advanced separation, purification, and refinement into domestically produced, high-purity rare earth and critical mineral products. The financing is designed to directly support the rapid expansion of material flowing into ReElement’s refining platform.

Taylor told Proactive that the agreement provides the company with greater liquidity and operational flexibility, allowing American Resources to accelerate its feedstock acquisition strategy while expanding the volume and diversity of material entering the processing stream. He emphasized that the credit facility aligns with the company’s broader strategy to build a resilient, U.S.-based supply chain for rare earths and other strategic materials.

Through its affiliation with ReElement Technologies, American Resources has already validated its ability to extract and concentrate rare earth elements from a wide range of input materials. These include coal-based byproducts, end-of-life permanent magnet materials, lithium-ion battery waste, and various forms of manufacturing scrap. This diversified feedstock capability positions the company to respond to growing domestic demand for critical minerals used in clean energy, defense, and advanced manufacturing.

The agreement with Old National Bank represents another meaningful step in advancing a circular, U.S. based critical mineral economy. Together, American Resources, ReElement Technologies, and Old National Bank are accelerating the recovery, refinement, and reuse of essential materials that underpin America’s industrial base, strengthen national security, and enhance long-term economic competitiveness.

Through its affiliation with ReElement Technologies, American Resources has already validated its ability to extract and concentrate rare earth elements from a wide range of input materials. These include coal-based byproducts, end-of-life permanent magnet materials, lithium-ion battery waste, and various forms of manufacturing scrap. This diversified feedstock capability positions the company to respond to growing domestic demand for critical minerals used in clean energy, defense, and advanced manufacturing.

The agreement with Old National Bank represents another meaningful step in advancing a circular, U.S. based critical mineral economy. Together, American Resources, ReElement Technologies, and Old National Bank are accelerating the recovery, refinement, and reuse of essential materials that underpin America’s industrial base, strengthen national security, and enhance long-term economic competitiveness.

      <title>Vista Gold unveils rescaled Mt Todd plan with NPV up to US$2.2B in feasibility study</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Vista Gold CEO Fred Earnest joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s updated development strategy for its flagship Mt Todd Gold Project in Australia, following the release of a new feasibility study that redefines the scale, economics, and execution pathway for the project.

Earnest explained that the project has been rescaled to a more streamlined and manageable production rate of 15,000 tonnes per day, reflecting a focused and highly executable development approach. The updated feasibility study assumes a gold price of US$2,500 per ounce and delivers a post-tax NPV5 of approximately US$1.1 billion, with an internal rate of return (IRR) of nearly 28%. At a higher gold price of US$3,300 per ounce, the projected economics strengthen significantly, with the post-tax NPV5 increasing to roughly US$2.2 billion and the IRR approaching 45%.

“This feasibility study represents a completely new vision for how we can advance and develop Mt Todd,” Earnest said, noting that the revised plan improves capital efficiency while maintaining the project’s long-life production potential and strong financial metrics.

Work at the site is already progressing, with metallurgical drilling underway and ongoing site management activities continuing through the Australian wet season. In parallel, Vista Gold is updating and adjusting its existing permits to ensure they align with the newly defined development plan and operating scale.

To support the next phase of advancement, the company has begun recruiting a dedicated core team in Australia to manage the Mt Todd project locally, transitioning oversight from its Denver-based headquarters to an on-the-ground operational structure. This move is intended to enhance project execution, regulatory engagement, and stakeholder coordination.

Looking ahead, Vista Gold expects to initiate detailed engineering work in late 2026. The company is targeting a 27-month development timeline from the start of engineering through to the commencement of gold production, positioning Mt Todd as a potential near-term, high-impact gold development in the Australian market.

      <title>Immunic marks International Day of Persons with Disabilities with hope for MS sufferers</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX) chief scientific officer Dr Hella Kohlhof talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s research and clinical progress in treating multiple sclerosis (MS) with its lead compound, vidofludimus calcium.

Kohlhof highlighted the significance of discussing MS research on the International Day of Persons with Disabilities, emphasising the long-term impact the disease has on young adults. She noted that one of the primary challenges for patients is the gradual loss of independence due to ongoing disease progression.
Kohlhof said: "Multiple sclerosis gradually takes away your ability...like walking, remembering, focusing on things and managing everyday tasks." She stressed the importance of shifting focus from managing short-term relapses to addressing long-term disability progression.

Immunic’s lead compound, vidofludimus calcium, aims to protect nerve cell function in the brain and spinal cord. According to Kohlhof, the therapy has shown encouraging clinical readouts, including reductions in nerve damage and signs of slowing or halting disease progression — even in the absence of relapses.

Kohlhof outlined three potential levels of treatment success: delaying progression, halting worsening, and improving patients' abilities. Notably, some patients in Immunic’s trials showed improvement in function over time, with long-term data suggesting the compound may reduce the risk of confirmed disability worsening over five and a half years of treatment.

Kohlhof concluded by expressing optimism about the future, stating that progress in understanding MS biology is bringing the field closer to better long-term treatment outcomes. She added, "Only what you understand, you can really fight."

      <title>ReconAfrica confirms hydrocarbon pay at Kavango West 1X well in Namibia</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Reconnaissance Energy Africa or ReconAfrica CEO Brian Reinsborough joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the results from the company’s Kavango West 1X exploration well, located on Petroleum Exploration Licence 73 in onshore Namibia. The well delivered encouraging results, encountering approximately 400 metres of gross hydrocarbon-bearing section within the Otavi carbonate interval, as identified by wireline logging data.

Reinsborough told Proactive that detailed evaluation of the logs confirms 64 net metres of hydrocarbon pay, supported by both wireline interpretation and strong mud log anomalies. In addition, the company identified a further 61 metres (approximately 200 feet) of hydrocarbon shows in deeper intervals. These zones are interpreted to contain naturally fractured limestone reservoirs, a geological feature that could significantly enhance the flow potential and overall deliverability of hydrocarbons.

Following these positive results, ReconAfrica’s forward program will now focus on comprehensive well testing to establish commercial flow rates from the most prospective intervals. The company will proceed with testing due to the strong indications of hydrocarbon-saturated reservoirs across multiple zones, based on the combined evidence from wireline logs, oil and gas shows, and interpreted natural fracture systems within the limestone units.

A production test is planned to evaluate the deliverability characteristics of the key intervals within the Otavi carbonate section. The test will be conducted using 5-inch production casing and Tubing-Conveyed Perforations (TCP), allowing the company to selectively perforate specific pay zones. These selections will be based on intervals where hydrocarbon pay has been confirmed on wireline logs and where the most significant oil and gas shows were observed.

Reinsborough noted that the upcoming testing phase represents an important next step in determining the commercial potential of the Kavango West 1X well and further advancing ReconAfrica’s exploration efforts across the broader Kavango Basin in Namibia.

      <title>Tonix wins FDA clearance to launch phase 2 trial for major depressive disorder</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holdings CEO Dr. Seth Lederman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared the company’s Investigational New Drug (IND) application for TNX-102 SL, enabling Tonix to begin clinical development of the drug for major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults.

Dr. Lederman explained that the IND clearance allows Tonix to initiate the potentially pivotal Phase 2 HORIZON study — a 6-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating TNX-102 SL as a first-line monotherapy. The study will enroll approximately 360 adults across about 30 U.S. clinical sites. Participants must be 18 years or older and currently experiencing a moderate to severe major depressive episode.

The trial will compare TNX-102 SL 5.6 mg, taken sublingually at bedtime, against placebo. The primary endpoint is change from baseline at Week 6 on the MADRS or Montgomery–Åsberg Depression Rating Scale total score. Secondary measures include global impression scores, anxiety assessments, and indicators of sleep disturbance. Tonix expects to begin enrolling patients in mid-2026.

Dr. Lederman emphasized the significant need for new treatment options in MDD — a serious and widespread psychiatric condition affecting more than 21 million adults in the United States each year. Symptoms commonly include persistent sadness or loss of interest, sleep and appetite disruption, fatigue, impaired concentration, and feelings of worthlessness. These symptoms must be present for at least two weeks and cause meaningful impairment to daily life.

Tonix aims to advance TNX-102 SL as a novel therapeutic option to address this substantial unmet medical need.

      <itunes:summary>Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holdings CEO Dr. Seth Lederman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has cleared the company’s Investigational New Drug (IND) application for TNX-102 SL, enabling Tonix to begin clinical development of the drug for major depressive disorder (MDD) in adults.

Dr. Lederman explained that the IND clearance allows Tonix to initiate the potentially pivotal Phase 2 HORIZON study — a 6-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial evaluating TNX-102 SL as a first-line monotherapy. The study will enroll approximately 360 adults across about 30 U.S. clinical sites. Participants must be 18 years or older and currently experiencing a moderate to severe major depressive episode.

The trial will compare TNX-102 SL 5.6 mg, taken sublingually at bedtime, against placebo. The primary endpoint is change from baseline at Week 6 on the MADRS or Montgomery–Åsberg Depression Rating Scale total score. Secondary measures include global impression scores, anxiety assessments, and indicators of sleep disturbance. Tonix expects to begin enrolling patients in mid-2026.

Dr. Lederman emphasized the significant need for new treatment options in MDD — a serious and widespread psychiatric condition affecting more than 21 million adults in the United States each year. Symptoms commonly include persistent sadness or loss of interest, sleep and appetite disruption, fatigue, impaired concentration, and feelings of worthlessness. These symptoms must be present for at least two weeks and cause meaningful impairment to daily life.

Tonix aims to advance TNX-102 SL as a novel therapeutic option to address this substantial unmet medical need.

      <title>Lantern Pharma advances AI-Driven cancer drug after successful Phase 1a trial</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Lantern Pharma CEO Panna Sharma joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s latest clinical milestone and its broader mission to transform oncology drug development through the use of artificial intelligence, machine learning, and genomic data. Lantern’s proprietary RADR® AI platform integrates billions of biological and clinical data points to identify predictive biomarkers, forecast drug response, and design more targeted and efficient clinical trials aimed at delivering precision cancer therapies to patients.

The company announced additional details from its recently completed Phase 1a dose-escalation study of LP-184, its lead drug candidate. The trial produced encouraging results, demonstrating durable disease control in 63 heavily pre-treated patients with advanced solid tumors, many of which exhibited deficiencies in DNA damage repair pathways—an area where LP-184 is designed to be particularly effective.

Sharma told Proactive that the Phase 1a study successfully met all primary endpoints for safety and tolerability, while also clearly establishing a recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D). He emphasized that these outcomes validate both the scientific rationale behind LP-184 and the predictive capabilities of Lantern’s AI-driven development approach.

Building on these positive results, Lantern Pharma is now advancing an ambitious precision oncology strategy that includes multiple biomarker-guided Phase 1b/2 clinical trials. These studies will target major cancer indications such as triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), non-small cell lung cancer, and advanced bladder cancer.

The commercial potential for LP-184 is significant. Lantern and independent industry analysts estimate that the aggregate annual market opportunity for the drug across these and additional targeted indications could exceed $10 billion. Preclinical models have shown nanomolar potency, while early clinical data indicate encouraging durability of response even in heavily pre-treated patient populations.

LP-184 has also received important regulatory recognition from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, including Fast Track Designation for TNBC and GBM, as well as Orphan Drug Designation for malignant gliomas, pancreatic cancer, and atypical teratoid/rhabdoid tumors (ATRT). Sharma noted that these designations support an accelerated development pathway as Lantern continues to move LP-184 toward later-stage clinical trials.

      <title>Century Lithium reports breakthrough results in rare earth recovery from Angel Island project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Century Lithium CEO Bill Willoughby joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce positive results from ongoing test work evaluating the recovery of rare earth elements (REEs) from primary lithium leach solutions generated at the company’s Angel Island lithium project in Nevada. Initial testing shows that high REE recoveries can be achieved without any negative impact on lithium recovery, marking a significant technical advancement for the project.

Willoughby told Proactive that producing a secondary REE-rich product could materially strengthen the overall economics of the Angel Island project while also aligning the company with broader U.S. government and industry initiatives aimed at securing resilient North American critical-mineral supply chains.

Century Lithium has previously confirmed that leach solutions derived from Angel Island claystone contain meaningful concentrations of several high-value rare earth elements, including dysprosium, gadolinium, neodymium, and praseodymium. The solutions also contain elevated levels of critical metals such as scandium, lanthanum, and cerium, along with the presence of cesium.

Recent ion-exchange test work achieved greater than 97% recovery of the identified REEs and critical metals, excluding cesium, while maintaining complete selectivity against lithium. This lithium selectivity is essential for preserving the integrity of the company’s downstream lithium recovery process, which includes ultrafiltration, direct lithium extraction, and subsequent steps required to produce high-purity lithium carbonate.

Willoughby emphasized that these results represent a major technical milestone, demonstrating that REE extraction and recovery can be integrated into the Angel Island flowsheet without compromising Century Lithium’s core lithium production process.

Century Lithium believes these advancements position the company to potentially become a dual supplier of both lithium and rare earth elements to North American critical-mineral markets. Management noted that this dual-output capability could significantly enhance long-term project value, strengthen supply-chain resilience, and further support the strategic importance of Angel Island in the electrification and advanced manufacturing sectors.

      <title>Pantheon Resources reports early flowback at Dubhe-1 Well as clean-up operations continue</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pantheon Resources CEO Max Easley and Chairman David Hobbs  joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide a detailed operational update on the company’s flagship Dubhe-1 well, outlining steady progress in well clean-up operations and encouraging early flowback performance in Alaska.

Hobbs said the well is tracking firmly “within the envelope of expectation,” emphasizing that while it is still too early to draw definitive conclusions, operations to date have progressed smoothly and in line with technical forecasts. He stressed that further data will be required before firm performance metrics can be established, adding, “The well will speak,” underscoring the importance of patience as the reservoir continues to stabilize and respond. Additional operational updates are expected over the coming weeks as more flowback data is collected.

Easley provided further insight into the early production phase, explaining that visible flaring began shortly after oil started flowing, with motorists along the Dalton Highway quickly noticing the flare. He confirmed that the flare has been continuous since flow commenced, indicating sustained production activity. Easley reiterated that the current phase is focused on well stabilization rather than peak output, with oil volumes gradually increasing in a manner consistent with expectations at this early stage.

The company also revised its cost guidance for the Dubhe-1 well from the previously estimated $25 million to approximately $33 million. Easley explained that the increase was largely driven by additional appraisal-related initiatives undertaken during the program, including the drilling of a pilot hole to help confirm the scale of newly identified resources. This additional work is estimated to have contributed approximately 200 million barrels to Pantheon’s total resource base.

Easley also highlighted the operational efficiency achieved by the drilling and completion team, noting that completion activities were executed in just seven days — a significant improvement compared to the 28 days required for similar operations in earlier projects. This reduction reflects advancements in planning, execution, and technical performance.

Looking ahead, Hobbs said the company expects to reach approximately 50% flowback within the next two to three weeks, which will provide more meaningful insight into the well’s production behavior. Both Easley and Hobbs expressed confidence in the asset’s potential based on results observed so far and reiterated that the Dubhe-1 well remains a key catalyst in Pantheon Resources’ broader Alaskan development strategy.

Easley also highlighted the operational efficiency achieved by the drilling and completion team, noting that completion activities were executed in just seven days — a significant improvement compared to the 28 days required for similar operations in earlier projects. This reduction reflects advancements in planning, execution, and technical performance.

Looking ahead, Hobbs said the company expects to reach approximately 50% flowback within the next two to three weeks, which will provide more meaningful insight into the well’s production behavior. Both Easley and Hobbs expressed confidence in the asset’s potential based on results observed so far and reiterated that the Dubhe-1 well remains a key catalyst in Pantheon Resources’ broader Alaskan development strategy.

      <title>EMV Capital portfolio company Wanda Health&apos;s virtual care tackles US chronic disease crisis</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev and Tom Smith, CEO of EMV portfolio company Wanda Health, talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about how the company is transforming virtual care for cardiometabolic diseases and weight management.

Smith said Wanda has developed a new care model that integrates intelligent technology, connected devices, and coaching to deliver better patient outcomes and reduce dependence on expensive medications like GLP-1s.

"We built a new model of virtual care designed specifically for cardiometabolic disease and weight management, areas where traditional medication-driven approaches have become too expensive and all too far reactive," Smith explained.

He added that the company’s platform is gaining strong traction in the US healthcare market, particularly with health plans seeking to cut GLP-1 costs and improve chronic disease outcomes. Smith highlighted that the company’s strongest momentum is with US health plans, large employers, and chronic care providers.

In 2025, Wanda launched a GLP-1 management program, scaled its coaching services, and released an insights engine for population health intelligence. Over the next 12 to 18 months, key revenue drivers are expected to include the expansion of GLP-1 cost-reduction programs, broader chronic disease pathways, and commercialisation of its analytics tools.

Iliev noted that Wanda aligns with EMV's "Venture Build" program, emphasising its IP, real-world healthcare impact, and the adaptability of its business model.

      <title>EMV Capital portfolio company DeepTech Recycling: turning plastic waste back to oil</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EMV Capital (AIM:EMVC) CEO Dr Ilian Iliev and Marvine Besong, MD and CTO of EMV portfolio company DeepTech Recycling, talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's breakthrough plastic recycling technology and how it supports a circular economy.

Besong explained that traditional recycling methods, such as mechanical recycling, often degrade the quality of plastics and can only process a narrow range of materials. In contrast, DeepTech Recycling uses a process that converts plastics back into oil. “This process can be repeated over and over again without the loss of quality,” he said.

This approach allows for the creation of new, high-quality plastics from waste, significantly expanding the types of plastics that can be recycled and reused. The company is currently focusing on commercial applications in the plastic packaging sector, which accounts for around 40–45% of global plastic waste.

Iliev said the company’s "Venture Build" program is centred on supporting IP-rich, disruptive technologies with scalable potential. He added that DeepTech Recycling’s capital-light structure, which separates project funding from core IP and licensing, offers potential for substantial non-dilutive returns to investors.

Besong noted that the company is nearing final investment decisions on several commercial initiatives. The next 12 to 18 months are expected to include financial close and the launch of revenue-generating projects.

      <title>Panthera Eyes $1.58B India arbitration as U.S. investor interest grows</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Panthera Resources CEO Mark Bolton joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC Studio in New York City to discuss the company’s ongoing focus on international arbitration linked to its Bhukia Gold Project in India.
Bolton explained that, while Panthera is fundamentally a gold exploration company with assets spanning West Africa and India, its primary value driver at present lies in its legal action under the Australia-India bilateral investment treaty. The company is pursuing a substantial $1.58 billion claim against the Indian government, positioning the arbitration as a potential game-changer for shareholder value.

“The focus right now is essentially on pursuing a bilateral investment treaty claim and arbitration,” Bolton said, highlighting that the legal process has been ongoing for three years and is now well-advanced. A hearing has been scheduled for December 2026, with several procedural milestones already established. Bolton underscored that this timing could present a unique entry point for investors: “This is actually a really good time for investors to get involved,” he added.

In addition to its legal pursuits, Panthera is actively increasing its visibility among U.S. investors. The company recently achieved a listing on the OTCQB under the ticker PATRF, a move driven by strong investor demand rather than corporate necessity, according to Bolton.

Outside of the arbitration, Panthera continues to manage and develop its exploration assets in West Africa, with further updates expected as projects progress. The combination of ongoing litigation potential and core exploration operations, Bolton noted, provides multiple avenues for value creation for investors.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai to acquire ARway in strategic move to build unified AI-Driven global events platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.ai CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire 100% of the common shares of ARway. The transaction marks a major strategic step in Nextech’s effort to consolidate its technology stack and strengthen its competitive position in the fast-growing global events industry.

Gappelberg told Proactive that the acquisition will bring together Nextech’s existing technologies with ARway and Map Dynamics to create a more unified, end-to-end event technology ecosystem. By integrating these platforms, the company aims to streamline operations while delivering a stronger, more comprehensive solution for enterprise and large-scale event customers.

The consolidation is expected to generate meaningful cost reductions through the integration of both teams and technology infrastructure. At the same time, the combined platform is designed to accelerate product innovation by merging artificial intelligence, augmented-reality navigation, and 3D digital tools into a single, seamless event solution.

The unified software suite will support the full event lifecycle, including event setup, AI-powered matchmaking, AR and AI navigation, ticketing, payments, and blockchain-enabled capabilities. Management believes this integrated offering positions Nextech to better serve large event organizers while driving growth in high-margin, recurring SaaS revenue.

Gappelberg emphasized that the transaction aligns with Nextech3D.ai’s broader strategy of building scalable, AI-powered platforms that generate predictable, recurring revenue while expanding the company’s presence across multiple high-growth digital verticals.

      <title>Trust Stamp unveils turnkey solution to combat violent crypto “wrench attacks” and home invasions</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Trust Stamp EVP John Bridge joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a new turnkey solution aimed at preventing violent, crypto-focused home invasions commonly known as “wrench attacks.” The announcement follows a recent high-profile incident in San Francisco in which a criminal posing as a delivery driver restrained a homeowner and forced the transfer of approximately $11 million in cryptocurrency. The case highlights a growing global trend of attacks involving kidnappings, physical violence, and coercion to steal digital assets.

Bridge explained that these crimes exploit a fundamental weakness in today’s digital-asset ecosystem: even the strongest wallet security can be defeated if a victim is physically forced to authorize a transaction. Once assets are transferred under duress, they are typically irreversible and unrecoverable, making crypto holders attractive targets for organized criminal activity.

Trust Stamp believes this rising threat can be effectively addressed through the integration of its patented StableKey technology. StableKey is a quantum-ready, embedded-identity algorithm that cryptographically binds a digital asset to its rightful owner. According to Bridge, this binding renders any coerced transfer economically worthless to attackers, without creating a direct or traceable link to the owner’s personal biometric identity.

The StableKey solution introduces what Trust Stamp describes as a major breakthrough in digital asset security. Under this framework, digital assets—including stablecoins, tokenized deposits, central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), NFTs, and other on-chain instruments—can be embedded with cryptographic identity binding. Ownership is tied to an irreversibly transformed biometric marker of the legitimate holder, ensuring the asset cannot be effectively exploited if transferred under duress.

Bridge emphasized that this approach shifts security from simple access control to true ownership validation, providing a powerful new layer of protection for individuals, financial institutions, and regulators. Trust Stamp positions StableKey as a critical infrastructure solution designed to address the growing convergence of real-world violence and digital financial crime, while maintaining privacy and regulatory compliance in an increasingly tokenized economy.

      <title>Blockmate’s Hivello partners with Naoris to launch world’s first quantum-resistant DePIN platform</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Blockmate Ventures Chairman Domenic Carosa joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company’s portfolio business, Hivello Holdings, has entered into a strategic partnership with Naoris Protocol to integrate quantum-resistant cybersecurity into the Hivello platform. The collaboration is designed to future-proof user earnings and establish a new benchmark for security across decentralized infrastructure networks.

Carosa explained that quantum security represents the next major frontier in cybercrime prevention. As quantum computing capabilities continue to advance, they pose a growing threat to the cryptographic foundations that currently protect global digital systems. Traditional encryption methods that secure financial data, blockchain networks, and digital infrastructure could eventually be broken by sufficiently powerful quantum processors, exposing critical systems to unprecedented risk.

Through its partnership with Naoris Protocol, Hivello has taken a significant step forward in addressing this emerging threat. The integration of Naoris’s quantum-resistant cybersecurity framework positions Hivello as the world’s first quantum-resistant DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network) earning platform. The upgrade enhances protection for node operators, secures the value layer of DePIN rewards, and places Hivello at the forefront of future-proofed decentralized compute infrastructure.

For users and enterprise participants, the partnership delivers frictionless earning opportunities with zero-compromise security and built-in compliance across Web3 infrastructure protocols. Under the new framework, every connected device can function both as a passive income generator and as an active component of a global cyber-defense network.

Carosa added that the enhanced platform provides a secure-by-design, infinitely scalable foundation for supporting real-world applications across the Internet of Things (IoT), smart cities, fintech, and artificial intelligence. By combining decentralized earning with quantum-resistant protection, Hivello and Naoris aim to set a new standard for security and resilience in the rapidly expanding DePIN ecosystem.

      <title>FGEN&apos;s Ed Mountney on dividend strength and portfolio value</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Foresight Environmental Infrastructure (LSE:FGEN) Investment Manager Ed Mountney talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s ongoing performance, dividend strategy, and outlook for its diverse asset portfolio.

Mountney confirmed that FGEN remains on track to meet its full-year dividend target, reflecting a 12% yield. He attributed this to a decade-long record of strong cash flow performance and a portfolio diversified across wind, solar, and anaerobic digestion technologies.

“Our diversified asset base has delivered record cash flows for each of the past ten years,” Mountney said, highlighting a dividend cover of 1.22 times for the first six months of the year. He pointed to strong solar performance and resilient anaerobic digestion assets as key contributors, even as wind underperformed against expectations.

On narrowing the share price discount to NAV, he noted an independent strategic review had reaffirmed FGEN’s relevance and value. The focus remains on a mix of operational stability and capital growth, particularly from three growth assets: CNG Fuels, a UK-wide bio-CNG refuelling network; a cannabis-growing glasshouse in the UK; and a sustainable aquaculture facility in Norway.

Mountney also discussed regulatory challenges but said the company’s structure helps mitigate risk while keeping it positioned to take advantage of long-term environmental infrastructure trends.

      <title>EdgeMode scales AI infrastructure with Spain deal; CEO discusses unique model</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EdgeMode Inc (OTCID:EDGM) CEO Charlie Faulkner talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s transformation into a major European AI infrastructure developer following a 1.5GW portfolio deal in Spain. Faulkner outlined how the five-site acquisition, made in partnership with BlackBerry AIF, enables Edgemode to build scalable, ready-to-build AI data center projects, capitalising on Spain’s land availability and renewable potential.

“The ingredients are right. We had the right partners, the right location, the right demand to build a truly scalable project,” Faulkner said, referring to the energy and regulatory advantages that make Spain strategically attractive.

Addressing a key bottleneck in AI infrastructure development, Faulkner highlighted Edgemode’s unique hybrid energy architecture, combining gas, solar, and battery storage, to ensure grid independence and accelerate deployment timelines. He noted that power remains a limiting factor across Europe, and Edgemode’s approach offers both scale and resilience.

He explained that the business model focuses on delivering ‘ready-to-build’ sites with secured land, power, and permits, which are monetized at roughly $1 million per megawatt. With a total potential value exceeding $1 billion, Faulkner confirmed that Edgemode aims to sell one or two of the Spanish sites within the next 3 to 6 months.

Looking ahead, Faulkner noted that project milestones and initial client deals will support the company’s planned US up-listing by late 2026.

He noted that power remains a limiting factor across Europe, and Edgemode’s approach offers both scale and resilience.

He explained that the business model focuses on delivering ‘ready-to-build’ sites with secured land, power, and permits, which are monetized at roughly $1 million per megawatt. With a total potential value exceeding $1 billion, Faulkner confirmed that Edgemode aims to sell one or two of the Spanish sites within the next 3 to 6 months.

Looking ahead, Faulkner noted that project milestones and initial client deals will support the company’s planned US up-listing by late 2026.

      <title>Kodal Minerals ships first lithium spodumene concentrate from Bougouni; CEO discusses progress</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Kodal Minerals PLC (AIM:KOD) CEO Bernard Aylward talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s successful first shipment of lithium concentrate from its Bougouni Project in Mali, marking a significant milestone for the company.

Aylward confirmed that the shipment was completed faster than expected, noting the efficient transport and port-loading process. “The transport to the port actually was very fast as well. And we were very pleased that there were no hiccups here,” he said, highlighting the reliability of West Africa’s trucking network.

He explained that the $24 million from this initial shipment significantly strengthens Kodal’s near-term cash position. The funds will support the ramp-up of stage two at Bougouni, continued drilling, and repayment of shareholder loans. The company is also focused on ensuring the Dense Media Separation (DMS) plant operates at optimal levels.

With lithium prices improving, Aylward acknowledged the financial upside: “The better the price, the better it is for us and our shareholders and our joint venture.” He also emphasised the broader community impact, saying, “It’s actually affecting the community. It’s the positive effect on the people around us and Mali.”

Looking ahead, Kodal plans to provide an update on mine site activities and expects to reach nameplate production levels following recent engineering enhancements and de-bottlenecking at the plant.

      <title>Oakmount &amp; Partners MD Glenn King on £500m social housing and care home bond strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Oakmount & Partners Ltd managing director Glenn King spoke with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion to discuss the company’s forthcoming £500 million listed bond, a major initiative designed to help meet the UK’s rapidly growing need for social housing and care home infrastructure.
 
King explained that the bond was originally structured as a US$350 million instrument, but following extensive market assessment and increased sector demand, Oakmount restructured the vehicle into sterling and expanded its size.

“We’ve increased the bond to £500 million GBP, dedicated exclusively to social housing and care homes, areas where demand is rising sharply and the supply gap continues to widen across the UK,” he said.
 
A key feature of the bond is its 6% fixed coupon, supported by government-backed rental income and subsidy mechanisms, providing a resilient and predictable income stream. King also highlighted that investors will benefit from a profit-sharing mechanism, offering the potential for enhanced returns over the long term.
 
Interest in the programme has been strong, with King noting that Oakmount is being presented with new acquisition and development opportunities almost daily. The company is now progressing through the final compliance, audit, and governance steps ahead of the bond’s formal launch.
 
During the interview, King outlined Oakmount’s existing four-pronged property strategy, which spans:
* UK park home communities
* Social housing acquisitions
* Care home developments and refurbishments
* New build development projects in the UK and refurbishments in Dubai
 
This diversified approach underpins the long-term stability and growth prospects of the company’s property division.
 
Looking ahead, King reaffirmed Oakmount’s long-term expansion strategy, including plans for a future public listing, which remains firmly on track. The company is targeting a valuation milestone of £100 million within the next five years, with a potential listing expected within 18 to 24 months, subject to market conditions.
 
“Our vision remains centred on building a stable, scalable, and socially impactful portfolio that delivers value for investors while addressing critical needs across the UK housing landscape,” King added.

      <title>Connecting Excellence CEO on planned £1.5m Aquis IPO, Bitcoin treasury strategy and unique model</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Connecting Excellence Group Plc (XCE) CEO Scott Ellam talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's planned IPO on the Aquis Growth Market and its unique strategy combining executive recruitment with a Bitcoin treasury model.

Ellam explained that XCE – Connecting Excellence Group – is the holding company for Spencer Riley, an international executive recruitment business. The company distinguishes itself by allocating surplus cash flows into Bitcoin since 2021, using it as a long-term treasury reserve.

He highlighted that the planned fundraise of at least £1.5 million will primarily support additional Bitcoin purchases. “The vast majority of funds are directed towards buying Bitcoin,” Ellam stated. This strategy, he said, helps attract revenue-generating talent to the recruitment business, creating a compounding effect between operations and treasury.

The company has assembled a board with deep expertise in digital assets, including Sam Roberts, Vijay Selvam, and advisor Richard Byworth. It also counts Adam Back as a key strategic investor.

Despite market volatility, Ellam noted that operating revenues have doubled in some years. He emphasised that the business is sector-agnostic and regionally flexible, working with clients ranging from global logistics firms to the Big Four.

Looking ahead, the company plans to support Bitcoin-native businesses with executive talent. Ellam said XCE has been retained by a Bitcoin investment fund and is in talks with US venture capital firms to place senior hires.

He sees Bitcoin as a multi-trillion-dollar opportunity and views XCE as a potential gateway for institutional and retail investors looking to engage with the asset class via equities. “We are also at the forefront of the corporate Bitcoin adoption wave,” he said.

      <title>Andrew Thake: key trends at Resourcing Tomorrow 2025</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Resourcing Tomorrow divisional director Andrew Thake talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about final preparations for the upcoming Resourcing Tomorrow 2025 conference.

The event will welcome over 2,100 C-suite attendees from more than 90 countries. Thake said the conference has expanded in recent years to include the full mining value chain, not just junior miners but also majors, mid-tiers, governments and investors. “We’ve made a real effort to attract the majors, the mid-tiers, the governments as well, and other players in the value chain,” he said.

One notable feature will be a government roundtable at the London Stock Exchange, attended by representatives from 64 governments, including 27 at ministerial level. According to Thake, this will help set the stage for wider discussions around G7 critical minerals policy.

This year’s agenda includes sessions on Defence Critical Minerals, mining opportunities in Ukraine, and artificial intelligence in exploration and production. “We've got like Fleet Space running a leadership roundtable on that,” Thake noted when discussing AI use in mining.

Other themes include resilient supply chains and global commodity trends, especially the focus on gold and rare earths. New speakers include Fortescue’s Dino Otranto and Martin Sorrell, discussing mining and brand identity.

Thake said the conference has expanded in recent years to include the full mining value chain, not just junior miners but also majors, mid-tiers, governments and investors. “We’ve made a real effort to attract the majors, the mid-tiers, the governments as well, and other players in the value chain,” he said.

One notable feature will be a government roundtable at the London Stock Exchange, attended by representatives from 64 governments, including 27 at ministerial level. According to Thake, this will help set the stage for wider discussions around G7 critical minerals policy.

This year’s agenda includes sessions on Defence Critical Minerals, mining opportunities in Ukraine, and artificial intelligence in exploration and production. “We&apos;ve got like Fleet Space running a leadership roundtable on that,” Thake noted when discussing AI use in mining.

Other themes include resilient supply chains and global commodity trends, especially the focus on gold and rare earths. New speakers include Fortescue’s Dino Otranto and Martin Sorrell, discussing mining and brand identity.

      <title>ImmuPharma CEO confident on P140 partnership as strong pharma interest extends timeline into 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ImmuPharma PLC (AIM:IMM) CEO Tim McCarthy talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's ongoing discussions to secure a partnership for its lead asset, P140. McCarthy addressed investor concerns following a recent update that indicated the timing of a potential deal may now move into 2026.

He explained that while the company had initially targeted the end of 2025 for deal completion, the timeline adjustment reflects strong ongoing engagement with multiple pharmaceutical companies—some of which include top ten global players. “We were all very pleasantly surprised [by] the amount of interest and positive interest from the pharma companies,” McCarthy stated.

The discussions follow the September filing of a new patent for P140, which was based on a “groundbreaking discovery” made by the company’s scientific team. McCarthy emphasised that the scientific and commercial value of P140 remains unchanged, and that the company is focused on finding the right partner and structure for shareholders.

He also provided reassurance regarding ImmuPharma’s financial position. Recent R&D tax credits, exercised warrants, and completion of a Lanstead share agreement have extended the company’s cash runway well into Q4 2026. McCarthy confirmed there is “no intention at all” to raise new funds via the market.

      <title>Buccaneer Energy adds acreage at Fouke; CEO details next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Buccaneer Energy Plc (AIM:BUCE) CEO Paul Welch talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strategic progress in East Texas, focusing on its recent acreage acquisition and plans for the Allar #1, Turner #1, and Fouke #4 wells.

Welch highlighted that the newly acquired lease provides operational flexibility, allowing Buccaneer to sidetrack the Allar #1 well and support future enhanced oil recovery through waterflooding. He stated, “It provides us a lot of optionality... Do we start the waterflood now? Do we drill additional infill locations now?”

Buccaneer plans to drill a 600-foot sidetrack at Allar #1, with expected costs of $125,000 to $150,000 gross, and net costs to the company around $50,000. Turner #1 could be brought back online within a month, potentially adding 10–30 barrels per day, depending on the outcome of minor surface infrastructure upgrades.

Welch confirmed that discussions are advancing with the Texas Railroad Commission on forming an Enhanced Recovery Unit for Pine Mills, with plans to initiate the process in Q1 2026. He noted that implementing a waterflood could double recovery from 15–20% to around 50%.

If all wells perform at their upper estimates, Buccaneer could achieve around 280 barrels per day gross, with about 90 barrels net to the company, supporting continued growth through 2026.

      <title>IP Group&apos;s Parkwalk Advisors sees scale-up gains from budget reforms</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Susie Harris, director of business development at Parkwalk Advisors, the fund management business of IP Group PLC (LSE:IPO), talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about how UK government policy changes are set to improve the funding landscape for deep tech companies and university spinouts.

Harris welcomed the decision, announced in Chancellor Rachel Reeves' Autumn Budget statement, to double the limits for knowledge-intensive companies from £20 million to £40 million, describing it as a “pretty significant change” that will allow companies to scale further and remain rooted in the UK. She explained that deep tech businesses often require funding “well in excess of £20 million” just to reach revenue generation, and that the previous cap had created a funding gap between early-stage and scale-up investment.

Harris highlighted that the move should help prevent UK-born innovations from being acquired too early: “The UK has become a bit of an incubator economy… many of those [companies are] acquired before the businesses really have an opportunity to scale up within the UK.”

Harris also discussed the role of the British Business Bank, UK Research and Innovation, the British Growth Partnership, and the National Wealth Fund in catalysing investment across the growth curve. These bodies, she said, could work together to turn the UK from an incubator economy into a scale-up economy.

She added that later-stage institutional capital, particularly from pension funds, would now be better positioned to support the global growth of domestic tech companies. “Some pretty significant capital is required at those later stages to enable deep tech companies to establish themselves as global businesses,” Harris noted.

Looking ahead, Harris said Parkwalk Advisors and IP Group see “an extraordinary opportunity for these businesses to now be able to scale and succeed” with the added support of private and public capital at every stage.

      <title>ReElement and SAGINT partner on blockchain tokenization to strengthen critical mineral traceability</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp CEO Mark Jensen joined Steve Darling to announce that the company’s subsidiary, ReElement Technologies, has entered into a Tokenization Services Agreement with SAGINT Inc., a provider of digital asset infrastructure focused on supply chain traceability and market price transparency. As part of the strategic partnership, American Resources will also take an equity position in SAGINT to support the company’s continued expansion and technology development.

Jensen explained that the agreement will enable the deployment of blockchain-based tokenization technology to create verifiable digital warehouse receipts and fully traceable digital assets for refined critical and rare earth minerals produced by ReElement. This digital framework is designed to establish end-to-end provenance, tracking materials from their mine origin through refining and final delivery to customers. By embedding traceability directly into the value chain, the system aims to increase transparency, trust, and efficiency across domestic and international markets.

Under the partnership, the tokenized assets will also enable secure, borderless financing options, providing greater flexibility for commercial transactions and inventory-backed funding. In addition, the platform is expected to ensure full compliance with evolving U.S. regulatory requirements related to critical mineral sourcing, national security, and supply chain transparency. The solution will offer complete visibility for both commercial and defense customers, helping verify the origin, ownership, and movement of strategic raw materials.

American Resources has made an equity commitment to SAGINT as part of the collaboration, reflecting its confidence in the company’s technology and long-term growth prospects. Jensen noted that the investment aligns with American Resources’ broader strategy to integrate advanced digital tools into its operations while strengthening the resilience and credibility of domestic supply chains.

The initiative directly supports American Resources’ mission to build and expand environmentally responsible, socially accountable, and fully traceable domestic supply chains for high-purity raw materials. These materials are critical to electrification, defense manufacturing, and next-generation infrastructure development. By combining ReElement’s refining capabilities with SAGINT’s digital infrastructure, the company aims to set a new standard for transparency, compliance, and efficiency in the critical minerals sector.

This digital framework is designed to establish end-to-end provenance, tracking materials from their mine origin through refining and final delivery to customers. By embedding traceability directly into the value chain, the system aims to increase transparency, trust, and efficiency across domestic and international markets.

Under the partnership, the tokenized assets will also enable secure, borderless financing options, providing greater flexibility for commercial transactions and inventory-backed funding. In addition, the platform is expected to ensure full compliance with evolving U.S. regulatory requirements related to critical mineral sourcing, national security, and supply chain transparency. The solution will offer complete visibility for both commercial and defense customers, helping verify the origin, ownership, and movement of strategic raw materials.

American Resources has made an equity commitment to SAGINT as part of the collaboration, reflecting its confidence in the company’s technology and long-term growth prospects. Jensen noted that the investment aligns with American Resources’ broader strategy to integrate advanced digital tools into its operations while strengthening the resilience and credibility of domestic supply chains.

The initiative directly supports American Resources’ mission to build and expand environmentally responsible, socially accountable, and fully traceable domestic supply chains for high-purity raw materials. These materials are critical to electrification, defense manufacturing, and next-generation infrastructure development. By combining ReElement’s refining capabilities with SAGINT’s digital infrastructure, the company aims to set a new standard for transparency, compliance, and efficiency in the critical minerals sector.

      <title>Medicus Pharma applies for FDA priority voucher to accelerate SkinJect’s non-invasive BCC therapy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has formally submitted an FDA Commissioner’s National Priority Voucher (CNPV) application on behalf of its partner SkinJect, seeking expedited regulatory review for the Doxorubicin Microneedle Array (D-MNA) a novel, non-invasive treatment for basal cell carcinoma (BCC) of the skin.

The submission includes a detailed Statement of Interest setting out how SkinJect aligns with the FDA’s highest national priorities, including improved cancer-care accessibility, reduced treatment costs, and the urgent unmet needs in rare diseases such as Gorlin Syndrome, where no approved therapies currently exist.
Dr. Bokhari explained that, if granted, the CNPV voucher would allow Medicus and SkinJect to participate in a commissioner-led FDA review process that dramatically reduces regulatory timelines. Under this program, a drug developer’s final application could be evaluated in 1–2 months, compared to the traditional 10–12-month review cycle.

Unlike the standard review pathway—where an application is routed through multiple FDA divisions—the new CNPV pilot brings together specialists from across the agency into a single cross-functional expert team, enabling faster, more coordinated decision-making.

The FDA intends to award only a limited number of vouchers in the program’s first year, specifically to products that directly support U.S. national health priorities. In addition to the time-saving benefits, qualifying therapies may also be eligible for accelerated approval, provided they meet applicable legal and clinical criteria.

Medicus Pharma believes SkinJect is well positioned for inclusion. The Doxorubicin Microneedle Array offers a localized, cost-effective, and non-surgical alternative to current BCC treatments. Basal cell carcinoma is the most common cancer in the United States, with more than five million new cases annually, representing a substantial public-health burden.

The company views the CNPV program as an important opportunity to advance a U.S.-developed cancer therapy that strengthens national goals of accessibility, safety, affordability, and quality of care. Dr. Bokhari emphasized that gaining entry into the pilot would help accelerate the delivery of a much-needed medical innovation to both general BCC patients and underserved rare-disease communities.

      <title>Standard Uranium wins key permits, launching first drill program at Corvo in more than 40 years</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share that the company has received exploration permits for its Corvo Uranium Project, which is currently under a three-year earn-in option agreement with Aventis Energy. The approval clears the way for an ambitious field program that will include high-resolution geophysical surveys and the project’s first-ever modern drill campaign, scheduled to begin in January 2026.

Under the newly issued 18-month permit, the company plans to complete an extensive ground gravity survey over the property. The program will utilize a tight 50-metre by 200-metre grid and will cover more than 29 kilometres of conductive strike length across the project. More than 5,000 individual gravity stations will be measured as part of the survey. Hillacre explained that this work is designed to identify density anomalies that could represent hydrothermal alteration systems associated with uranium-fertile electromagnetic conductor trends, significantly refining drill targeting across the project.

Following completion of the gravity survey, Standard Uranium plans to launch a skid-assisted diamond drilling program totaling approximately 3,000 metres during the winter 2026 field season. This campaign will mark the first drilling on the Corvo Project in more than four decades, representing a major milestone in the advancement of the property.

Hillacre told Proactive that the drill program will focus on several high-priority targets, including the Manhattan Showing, which has never been drilled, along with multiple newly identified radioactive occurrences discovered through recent exploration work. The company believes these targets offer strong potential for uranium mineralization and could unlock significant new discoveries at Corvo.

With permits now in hand and work programs defined, Standard Uranium is positioned to systematically advance the Corvo Project through modern exploration for the first time in a generation, as it seeks to build value through new uranium discoveries in a strengthening nuclear fuel market.

      <title>Starpharma highlights major Oncology partnerships and 2026 clinical milestones</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Starpharma CEO Cheryl Maley joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s recent momentum in oncology development and strategic partnerships, underscoring growing commercial and clinical interest in its proprietary dendrimer-based drug delivery platform.

Maley explained that Starpharma’s technology enables more efficient and targeted drug delivery and has demonstrated significant benefits in oncology. The dendrimer platform is designed to improve the therapeutic performance of medicines while reducing side effects and toxicity, and can be applied across a wide range of molecules, from small-molecule drugs to complex antibodies.

She confirmed that Starpharma signed two major agreements in 2025. The first was an exclusive licensing deal with Genentech, valued at up to 860 million Australian dollars plus royalties, focused on a specific and undisclosed area of oncology. The second was a research collaboration with Radiopharm Theranostics that includes an option for exclusivity.

In parallel with its partnering activity, Starpharma continues to advance its internal development programs, particularly in radiotherapy. Maley said the company is targeting the entry of these assets into clinical trials in 2026. Starpharma also maintains a strategic relationship with private equity group Medicxi through a joint venture structure.

On the commercial front, Maley highlighted the company’s plans to grow revenue from its two registered products, VIRALEZE and VivaGel, which are now available in approximately 35 countries. She added that Starpharma currently has three Phase 2 assets in development, with two of those programs actively targeted for licensing.

The second was a research collaboration with Radiopharm Theranostics that includes an option for exclusivity.

In parallel with its partnering activity, Starpharma continues to advance its internal development programs, particularly in radiotherapy. Maley said the company is targeting the entry of these assets into clinical trials in 2026. Starpharma also maintains a strategic relationship with private equity group Medicxi through a joint venture structure.

On the commercial front, Maley highlighted the company’s plans to grow revenue from its two registered products, VIRALEZE and VivaGel, which are now available in approximately 35 countries. She added that Starpharma currently has three Phase 2 assets in development, with two of those programs actively targeted for licensing.

      <title>MustGrow Biologics posts $0.8M in Q3 revenue as NexusBioAg drives margin growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[MustGrow Biologics Corp Chief Executive Officer Corey Giasson joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s financial results for the three months ended September 30, 2025, highlighting a meaningful step forward in revenue generation and margin performance. During the quarter, MustGrow reported revenue of $0.8 million, marking a significant improvement from the same period last year, when the company recorded no revenue.

Gross profit for the quarter totaled $180,555, resulting in a gross margin of 22.9%, up from 20.9% in the second quarter of 2025. Giasson attributed the sequential improvement in margins to a stronger mix of higher-margin product sales through the company’s Canadian sales and distribution division, NexusBioAg.

From a balance sheet perspective, MustGrow ended the quarter with $3.3 million in cash and cash equivalents, along with $1.9 million in inventory on hand. Giasson noted that the company remains disciplined in its capital allocation strategy, continuing to focus on investments that support revenue growth across both its NexusBioAg Canadian operations and its TerraSante biofertility product sales in the United States.

Giasson also emphasized the seasonal nature of the company’s business, pointing out that the third calendar quarter is typically the lowest revenue “shoulder season” for Canadian agriculture, as farmers are more focused on harvesting activities rather than purchasing crop input products. Despite this seasonal slowdown, he said the company continues to make progress in strengthening its commercial platform and positioning itself for improved sales performance in future quarters.

      <title>Bitcoin&apos;s decline presents Black Friday buying opportunity, says Bitwise AM European head</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bitwise Asset Management European head Bradley Duke talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the recent decline in Bitcoin's price and what it could mean for investors.

Duke noted that while some view the fall from over $110,000 to $87,000 in November as a "disaster," others see it as a chance to accumulate at discounted levels. “It really is a sort of a Black Friday discount price for people who want to get involved,” he said.

He explained that the downturn was triggered by a tweet from former President Donald Trump announcing a sharp tariff hike on China. Since crypto markets trade around the clock, Bitcoin bore the immediate brunt of the selloff while traditional markets were closed. This sparked a wave of profit-taking by long-term holders and panic selling by short-term investors, further accelerating the price decline.

Despite this, Duke said institutional demand remains evident. Flows into Bitcoin ETPs continue, although somewhat tempered, and some large holders—or "whales"—have been buying the dip. The company has also engaged with investors who previously felt they had missed the opportunity to enter the market and now see more attractive entry points.

Looking ahead, Duke pointed to seasonal patterns that could support Bitcoin in December. He noted historical spikes in Bitcoin ETP flows towards year-end, particularly from both European and US investors, which could help lift the price as the year closes.

      <title>Amerant’s RNTA ETF targets yield in LatAm corporate bonds with active strategy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Amerant Investments chief investment officer Baylor Lancaster-Samuel talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the launch and strategy behind the Amerant Latin American Debt UCITS ETF (RNTA).

Lancaster-Samuel explained that RNTA was created to meet the needs of Latin American clients who want exposure to local corporates without the difficulties of constructing diversified portfolios themselves. “You need sort of five to six million dollars in order to get enough diversity,” he noted, citing bond denomination sizes as a barrier for many investors.

The ETF takes an active investment approach, targeting high-performing corporate bonds from the largest and most stable economies in Latin America, including Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, and Chile. The strategy avoids distressed issuers, with zero exposure to Venezuela and caution around defaults such as Argentina.

Lancaster-Samuel emphasised that the ETF is US dollar-denominated, reducing currency risk for clients already exposed to local currencies. He described the portfolio as concentrated (40–60 names), highlighting the opportunity in Latin America where “corporates trade with additional spread for the same amount of leverage.”

The ETF is designed for income-focused investors, with a quarterly distribution and a focus on carry rather than capital appreciation. He added that RNTA could appeal to both retail and institutional investors seeking targeted emerging market exposure.

      <title>Valereum secures $200m royalty and streaming deal with QGP; eyes Nasdaq listing</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Valereum PLC (AQSE:VLRM) CEO Gary Cottle talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s newly announced $200 million royalty and streaming financing agreement with Quorum Global Photonics (QGP), a fund based in the Cayman Islands specialising in tokenisation and resource-based assets.

Cottle explained that the deal involves a token swap rather than traditional debt financing, providing Valereum with a quarterly annuity stream of over $2 million. “We actually receive the coupon, not pay the coupon,” he said, describing the instrument as a perpetual call certificate that delivers consistent capital inflow to help grow and operate the business.

He noted the partnership is expected to be long-term and strategic, with QGP potentially taking up to 49.9% ownership in Valereum within a year. This, he said, would lead to shareholder dilution but is part of a broader vision to bring in strategic investors aligned with Valereum’s focus on tokenisation and AI in the streaming space.

Cottle also revealed that Valereum is preparing for a US exchange listing, targeting Nasdaq or NYSE, with a timeline of six to twelve months, depending on revenue developments and acquisitions. Several potential acquisitions are in progress to build out the revenue base required for that listing.

      <title>New Era Energy &amp; Digital expands Texas AI campus to 438 acres through major land acquisition</title>
      <description><![CDATA[New Era Energy & Digital CEO Will Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major expansion milestone for the company’s flagship digital infrastructure development. Texas Critical Data Centers (TCDC)—the company’s 50/50 joint venture with Sharon AI, Inc.—has finalized a definitive purchase and sale agreement to acquire an additional 203 contiguous acres near Odessa, Texas. This brings the total development footprint to 438 acres, significantly boosting the site’s capacity to support a multi-phase, multi-gigawatt AI and high-performance computing (HPC) campus designed to scale well beyond 1 gigawatt.

Gray explained that this enlarged footprint provides the long-term scalability required as global demand for AI compute accelerates and enterprises pursue increasingly GPU-intensive workloads. He added that the company is already in active commercial discussions with several prospective tenants seeking large-scale, power-dense environments with future-proof expansion capabilities—criteria that the expanded TCDC site is uniquely positioned to meet.

The site also offers multiple strategic advantages that strengthen project economics and reduce development friction. Its proximity to high-capacity fiber routes, major intrastate natural-gas transmission lines, and existing CO₂ pipeline corridors provides opportunities for efficient power integration, advanced cooling solutions, and optionality for future carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) systems. These infrastructure synergies are expected to lower interconnection complexity, shorten development timelines, and enable TCDC to deploy sustainable, high-performance digital infrastructure at scale.

Gray also detailed the company’s ongoing geotechnical and engineering work, including drilling and civil studies essential for large-scale data center construction. He emphasized that New Era is shifting from a powered land model toward a powered shell development strategy—prioritizing long-term recurring revenue streams rather than short-term land sales. This strategic pivot reflects the company’s broader vision to operate as a vertically integrated digital infrastructure developer.
As part of that effort, TCDC is currently in exclusive discussions on a potential triple net lease with a major anchor tenant. While Gray noted that a formal announcement is unlikely in the fourth quarter, he said the company anticipates finalizing the agreement in early Q1.
Operational milestones remain on schedule for 2026, including Phase 1 construction and initial tenant occupancy. To support execution, Gray said the company plans to make several C-suite hires and expand its development and engineering teams as planning progresses.

      <title>Power Metallic mines advances 100,000-metre drill program and targets January NYSE listing</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Power Metallic Mines CEO Terry Lynch joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s ongoing drilling activities and its planned listing on the New York Stock Exchange. Lynch noted that although the listing process experienced a brief delay due to the U.S. government shutdown, the company now expects to debut in New York in January. “They’ll start the new year off with a bang in New York,” he said.
At the company’s recent annual general meeting, shareholders raised concerns about the recent decline in share price. Lynch attributed the drop to broader market conditions and a fund sell-off, despite strong operational news. He emphasized that the company’s fundamentals remain robust and that investor interest has strengthened in recent weeks.
Power Metallic Mines is currently executing a large-scale 100,000-metre drill program with five rigs active and additional rigs—potentially a sixth or seventh—expected to join. Assay results from this summer’s drilling campaign are anticipated shortly after American Thanksgiving.
The company continues to expand its resource base across four key targets and advance toward future development milestones. “We’re bullish on all of them,” Lynch said, underscoring confidence in the projects currently being drilled.

      <title>Aftermath Silver completes Berenguela acquisition and secures early-payment benefits ahead of PFS</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Aftermath Silver CEO Ralph Rushton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to confirm that the company has completed the final payment required to secure full ownership of the Berenguela silver-copper-manganese project—nearly two years ahead of the original November 2026 deadline.

Rushton explained that this early payment brought meaningful benefits. EMX Royalty Corporation agreed to reduce the amount of the final payment by US$100,000 and, importantly, waived Aftermath’s obligation to complete and file a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) by November 23, 2025, a requirement previously set out in the amended Berenguela Acquisition Agreement.

With this final payment now made, Aftermath Silver has satisfied all financial commitments under the acquisition deal. Rushton noted that the company is now working closely with SSR to finalize the formal transfer of ownership of the Berenguela project.

Looking ahead, Aftermath will launch a full, comprehensive PFS for Berenguela. The study will evaluate a development plan centered on producing silver, copper, and manganese—three commodities in strong demand across industrial supply chains and emerging technologies. Rushton said this work represents a major step forward in positioning Berenguela as a significant future source of these critical metals.

      <title>Tooru PLC CEO: health and wellness brands driving growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tooru PLC (LSE:RGO) CEO Scott Livingston talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's strategy for growth through its portfolio of health and wellness consumer brands.

Livingston began by outlining the core brands under Tooru, including Juvela, a gluten-free range sold via prescription; OAF, its mass-market gluten-free line launched in Tesco; Pulsin, a long-established protein bar and supplement brand; and Purely, a plantain crisps label. The company also operates Market Rocket, a tech division supporting direct-to-consumer growth.

“We think that we can grow these existing brands dramatically,” Livingston said, citing strong demand for clean-label, functional foods. He also noted the strength of OAF’s launch and its traction with retailers and consumers.

Livingston confirmed Tooru is EBITDA positive at the operating company level and is seeing the effects of investments made into product development and brand turnaround. The company is prioritising organic growth, but remains open to strategic acquisitions that align with existing operations or offer synergy on the production side.

Tooru is positioning itself within a growing health and wellness sector, with Livingston stating, “Even low-income area teenagers would read what's on the back of a product,” reflecting a wider consumer shift towards transparency and healthier choices.

      <title>Rainbow Rare Earths de-risks Phalaborwa project with solvent extraction solution</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd (LSE:RBW, OTC:RBWRF) CEO George Bennett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a major milestone in the company's development of the Phalaborwa rare earths project in South Africa.

Bennett outlined how Rainbow’s decision to switch from ion chromatography to solvent extraction (SX) as the separation method for rare earth elements significantly reduces risk. He said, “This is a significant de-risking step for Rainbow because now we're using tried, proven and tested technology.” The company engaged ANSTO, the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation, to confirm the viability of its solvent extraction circuits, which are expected to achieve the necessary 99.5% purity levels for both NdPr and the SEG+ groups.

Bennett also discussed the implications of soaring yttrium prices, which have risen dramatically from $6/kg to over $220/kg in some contracts. He said Rainbow has now attracted interest from one of the largest aerospace and jet engine manufacturers globally for yttrium offtake. According to Bennett, the SEG+ group could generate approximately $160 million in revenue at 70% payability, compared to previous estimates of $80 million, marking a significant boost to EBITDA.

Bennett concluded by confirming that key technical milestones have been achieved, enabling a more defined DFS timeline targeting mid-2026.

      <title>Caledonia Mining greenlights Bilboes Project after robust feasibility results</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Caledonia mining CEO Mark Learmonth joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s decision to formally proceed with the development of the Bilboes gold project in Zimbabwe, following the completion of a comprehensive feasibility study. The long-awaited study confirmed the project’s compelling economics and positioned Bilboes as one of the most significant future gold developments in the region.

Learmonth highlighted that the project delivers an NPV of more than $580 million at an 8% discount rate, based on a gold price assumption of $2,548 per ounce. The internal rate of return exceeds 32%, supported by a competitive all-in sustaining cost of $1,061 per ounce. “That clearly means that it’s a very high-margin operation with a very quick payback period,” Learmonth told Proactive.

The feasibility study recommends developing Bilboes as a single-phase, large-scale operation, with peak capital expenditure estimated at $484 million, plus roughly $100 million in financing-related costs. According to Learmonth, the single-phase plan generates superior returns compared to a phased development approach, benefiting from economies of scale and stronger overall project metrics.

Caledonia expects to fund the build primarily through a combination of non-recourse senior debt and internal equity from Blanket Mine, which is set to support the financing through a newly arranged three-year gold hedge at a minimum strike price of $3,500 per ounce. This hedge is anticipated to generate approximately $200 million in cash flow to underpin project construction.

Looking ahead, Learmonth outlined a timeline that sees construction beginning in the second half of 2026, with first gold production targeted for late 2028, contingent on finalising debt agreements. The company also plans to deliver further exploration updates from Blanket and Motapa in early 2026, adding additional potential growth catalysts.

Beyond its economic strength, Bilboes represents a major milestone for Zimbabwe’s mining sector. Learmonth described it as a “marquee project” with the potential to meaningfully boost national gold production, attract new investment, and reinforce the country’s profile as a destination for world-class gold development.

      <title>Cordiant Digital Infrastructure reports £1bn NAV milestone; eyes value upside in 2026</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Management chairman Steven Marshall and Cordiant Digital Infrastructure Ltd (LSE:CORD) CFO Andrew Ewe talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s continued financial performance and strategic progress, with net asset value (NAV) surpassing £1 billion.

Marshall said the NAV growth reflects the strong demand across digital infrastructure, as "demand for more and more capacity across the plumbing of the internet" continues to drive performance. He highlighted the strength of Cordiant's buy, build and grow strategy and underscored the value being delivered through hands-on management of portfolio companies.

Ewe detailed the financial resilience underpinning the results, noting a 2.175 pence per share interim dividend, which is "50% of the target set earlier in the year." He also pointed to a dividend coverage ratio of 1.7 times and over £200 million in undrawn debt and cash, supporting continued capital expenditure and acquisitions.

The acquisition of BT Ireland and construction plans for the Prague Gateway data centre are among key growth catalysts. Ewe noted that "this could be a significant driver of the NAV" as development progresses.

Both executives acknowledged the current discount to NAV, with Marshall stating he and colleagues had bought more shares, confident in the long-term value of the platform.

      <title>Tonix Pharmaceuticals launches TONMYA, a first-in-class non-opioid Fibromyalgia therapy</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holdings CEO Dr. Seth Lederman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a major milestone for the company and for patients: TONMYA is now commercially available by prescription at pharmacies across the United States. TONMYA is a first-in-class, non-opioid analgesic designed specifically for adults with fibromyalgia and is taken once nightly at bedtime.

Dr. Lederman told Proactive that this marks a transformative moment for the estimated 10 million Americans living with fibromyalgia, a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, sleep disturbance, fatigue, and impaired quality of life. TONMYA offers a novel therapeutic option that directly targets the condition’s core, debilitating symptom—chronic pain—while also showing positive effects on associated symptoms.

The commercial launch follows a substantial clinical development program, including the recently published RESILIENT Phase 3 trial in Pain Medicine. The study evaluated TONMYA on primary endpoints measuring pain reduction and secondary endpoints assessing overall patient-reported improvement, symptom severity, sleep quality, functional impact, and fatigue. The published findings reinforce TONMYA’s role as a meaningful new option in a field where therapeutic advances have been limited.

Regulatory approval incorporated efficacy and safety results from two double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trials involving nearly 1,000 patients. In both studies, TONMYA demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in daily pain scores at 14 weeks, meeting the primary endpoint. A higher proportion of patients receiving TONMYA also achieved clinically meaningful pain improvement after three months compared with placebo, underscoring its real-world therapeutic relevance.

With its U.S. pharmacy availability now in place, TONMYA becomes a first-in-class, non-opioid option designed to address the multi-dimensional burden of fibromyalgia—and represents a significant step forward for patients seeking relief and improved daily functioning.

Dr. Lederman told Proactive that this marks a transformative moment for the estimated 10 million Americans living with fibromyalgia, a chronic condition characterized by widespread pain, sleep disturbance, fatigue, and impaired quality of life. TONMYA offers a novel therapeutic option that directly targets the condition’s core, debilitating symptom—chronic pain—while also showing positive effects on associated symptoms.

The commercial launch follows a substantial clinical development program, including the recently published RESILIENT Phase 3 trial in Pain Medicine. The study evaluated TONMYA on primary endpoints measuring pain reduction and secondary endpoints assessing overall patient-reported improvement, symptom severity, sleep quality, functional impact, and fatigue. The published findings reinforce TONMYA’s role as a meaningful new option in a field where therapeutic advances have been limited.

Regulatory approval incorporated efficacy and safety results from two double-blind, randomized, placebo-controlled Phase 3 trials involving nearly 1,000 patients. In both studies, TONMYA demonstrated a statistically significant reduction in daily pain scores at 14 weeks, meeting the primary endpoint. A higher proportion of patients receiving TONMYA also achieved clinically meaningful pain improvement after three months compared with placebo, underscoring its real-world therapeutic relevance.

With its U.S. pharmacy availability now in place, TONMYA becomes a first-in-class, non-opioid option designed to address the multi-dimensional burden of fibromyalgia—and represents a significant step forward for patients seeking relief and improved daily functioning.

      <title>Trust Stamp unveils patent-protected framework embedding biometric provenance in Stablecoins</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Trust Stamp EVP John Bridge joined Steve Darling from Proactive to outline the company’s newly announced patent-protected framework for embedding links to a biometrically validated, cryptographic chain of provenance directly into stablecoins. The update comes as global regulators intensify scrutiny on the misuse of stablecoins for illicit finance. According to recent insights from the Financial Action Task Force (FATF), stablecoins have become one of the most commonly used virtual assets by bad actors — including North Korean cybercriminals, terrorist financiers, and drug trafficking networks — with most on-chain illicit activity now concentrated in stablecoin transactions.

Bridge explained that Trust Stamp’s USPTO Patent #11,681,787 captures the company’s strategy to serve as a critical infrastructure provider where distributed digital identity and digital asset issuance converge. The patent covers a system for validating ownership of cryptographic asset contracts using irreversibly transformed identity tokens.

This technology enables every unit of a stablecoin to be cryptographically linked to a tokenized, non-reversible representation of its owner’s identity — without exposing any personally identifiable information on-chain. The result is a privacy-preserving, biometrically anchored chain of provenance that supports embedded ownership authentication.

Bridge highlighted that the framework is designed to meet emerging regulatory expectations, offering quantum-resistant security while enabling compliant, transparent, and privacy-first issuance of digital assets in a rapidly evolving global regulatory environment.

      <title>AtaiBeckley advances BPL-003 toward Phase 3 After Strong Phase 2 Data topline data  i</title>
      <description><![CDATA[AtaiBeckley NV CEO Dr Srinivas Rao joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s official launch following the completion of the merger between Atai Life Sciences and Beckley Psytech, forming a new clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing transformative treatments for mental health disorders.

Rao said the combined company, now known as AtaiBeckley, brings together complementary expertise, proprietary technologies, and a robust clinical pipeline aimed at addressing treatment-resistant depression (TRD) and other mental health conditions.

AtaiBeckley’s lead program, BPL-003, a short-acting psychedelic compound, has received Breakthrough Therapy Designation from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for TRD. The company expects to meet with the FDA in the coming months to finalize Phase 3 trial plans, with pivotal studies anticipated to begin in Q2 2026.

The company also reported positive topline results from the open-label extension (OLE) of its Phase 2b clinical trial of BPL-003 in TRD patients. A 12 mg dose administered eight weeks after an initial dose (0.3 mg, 8 mg, or 12 mg) produced rapid, robust, and sustained antidepressant effects lasting up to eight weeks.
The Phase 2b trial consisted of an eight-week, quadruple-masked, dose-finding study followed by an eight-week OLE phase. Of the 126 patients who completed the core study, 107 entered the OLE. Patients who initially received 0.3 mg recorded a mean reduction in MADRS score of 14 points by Day 57.Those who received 8 mg or 12 mg demonstrated a mean reduction of 19 points, with a 63% responder rate and a 48% remission rate at Day 57.

The safety and tolerability profile of BPL-003 in the OLE remained consistent with prior studies and comparable to other compounds within the psychedelic class. Beyond BPL-003, AtaiBeckley’s pipeline includes VLS-01 (DMT buccal film) – in a Phase 2 trial for treatment-resistant depression, EMP-01 (R-MDMA) – in a Phase 2a trial for social anxiety disorder and a portfolio of preclinical 5-HT2A receptor agonists, including non-hallucinogenic neuroplastogens

Rao said the newly merged entity is strategically positioned to become a leader in next-generation neuropsychiatric innovation, leveraging scientific depth and clinical momentum to bring novel treatments to patients with few or no existing options.

      <title>Northstar Gold strikes major innovation partnership to advance surgical mining at Cam Copper Project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Northstar Gold Corp CEO Brian Fowler Joined Steve Darling from Proactive to reveal that the company has signed a Master Project Agreement with DIGITAL – Canada’s Global Innovation Cluster for digital technologies – alongside Novamera Inc. and Micon International Limited. The collaboration forms part of a broader initiative aimed at supporting data-driven, digital mining solutions for Northstar’s Cam Copper Surgical Mining Project in Ontario. 

Fowler explained that the agreement builds on an existing Definitive Surgical Mining Services Agreement between Northstar and Novamera, under which Novamera will deploy its fully integrated precision-mining system at Cam Copper. Over a 31-month pilot phase, the company plans to extract roughly 120,000 tonnes of high-grade copper material using advanced real-time downhole imaging, robotic drilling technology and immediate backfilling to keep environmental disturbance to a minimum.

Novamera’s “Surgical Mining” method is designed to dramatically improve efficiency and reduce environmental impact by eliminating blasting, reducing waste rock generation and employing a closed-loop water circuit that results in virtually no water discharge. The reduced surface footprint and simplified operational footprint may enable a smoother permitting pathway, faster development timelines and lower overall project costs compared with conventional mining approaches.

Under the strategic agreement, Northstar and Novamera will continue due diligence and implementation planning in the coming months. As part of the commercial structure, Novamera will earn a 5% revenue share from production at the Cam Copper Project. The partnership represents a significant step toward modernizing the project with cutting-edge digital and precision-mining technologies aimed at unlocking value while minimizing environmental impact.

      <itunes:summary>First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share that the company the company has closed another tranche of its non-brokered private placement, raising $3.5 million. This brings the total raised since June 2022 to roughly $43.6 million across 10 management-led financings.

Passalacqua said the proceeds support First Phosphate’s goal of establishing a fully integrated, North American lithium iron phosphate (LFP) battery materials supply chain, targeting markets such as energy storage, data centers, robotics, mobility, and national security.

The company continues to advance its high-purity Bégin-Lamarche phosphate project in Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean, Quebec — a rare igneous phosphate resource known for low impurities and strong suitability for LFP battery production.

      <title>Stuhini Exploration discovers promising new copper-gold porphyry target at Ruby Creek project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Stuhini Exploration CEO Meredith Eades joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a significant new development at the company’s 100%-owned Ruby Creek Project near Atlin, British Columbia. Fieldwork from the 2025 exploration season has led to the identification of a potential new copper-gold porphyry system, marking a major addition to the project’s expanding portfolio of high-impact targets.

Eades reported that geological teams uncovered a 400-metre-wide, discontinuous exposure of feldspar-phyric porphyry in the Ruffner area, which returned a series of high-grade copper and gold values. Eleven grab samples collected from outcrop and talus returned assays exceeding 0.5% copper, with grades reaching as high as 8.1% Cu. Gold assays were equally compelling, including 13.0 g/t Au from outcrop and 36.8 g/t Au from talus float material.

The newly identified target lies approximately 3.6 kilometres from the company’s flagship Ruby Creek molybdenum deposit, further demonstrating the district-scale potential of the 29,734-hectare land package. Eades noted that the discovery underscores the strength of Stuhini’s emerging multi-metal exploration pipeline, which includes copper, gold, silver, and molybdenum prospects across the property.

To build on this momentum, Stuhini has engaged Tetra Tech to complete a conceptual-level economic study of the Ruby Creek molybdenum deposit, which hosts 433 million pounds of molybdenum. This assessment leverages approximately 74,000 metres of historical drilling and a past 2006 feasibility study, with the goal of determining whether an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) is warranted.

In parallel, the company plans to advance several high-priority exploration targets, positioning Ruby Creek as a potentially significant polymetallic district with multiple pathways for development.

      <title>EnergyPathways CEO on major MESH expansion and catalysts ahead for investors</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EnergyPathways PLC (AIM:EPP) CEO Ben Clube talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent developments on the MESH project, a major initiative designated as a project of national significance in the UK. This designation enables the project to progress under a streamlined development consent order process, helping to reduce approval risks and delays. Clube explained that the company has formally submitted a gas storage license application covering both natural gas and hydrogen elements.

He highlighted the project’s significant scalability, with plans for up to 60 large-scale salt caverns to store energy. “We’ve got an eye to the scalability of what we’re doing here,” Clube noted, adding that energy storage is a core challenge for the UK’s energy security and affordability.

Clube also discussed the commercial potential of methane pyrolysis and hydrogen technologies being developed with KBR, Hazer, and Siemens Energy. He expressed confidence in reaching commercial scale by 2030, stating, “We’re doing it, and we’re leading the way in the UK.”

On the Siemens Energy front, Clube said the current non-binding agreement is a pathway to a formal long-term contract, likely by the start of the new year. He also confirmed that multiple revenue streams—including synthetic graphite and long-duration energy storage—are under evaluation, with a clearer funding picture expected in early 2026.

      <title>Western Star Resources CEO on 2026 drill plans; strategic tungsten positioning</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Western Star Resources Inc. (CSE:WSR, OTCQB:WSRIF) CEO Blake Morgan talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s focus on advancing its exploration-stage projects as it prepares for a busy 2026 drill season.

Morgan outlined the company’s two main assets: the flagship Western Star CRD (carbonate replacement deposit) project in British Columbia and a past-producing tungsten project in Nevada known as the Roland property. He noted that drill permits are already in place for the CRD project, which hosts surface-visible mineralisation including copper, gold, silver, zinc and lead.

“We already have drill permits approved on that one. It’s a CRD project… and the grades we have on this property [are] astronomical,” Morgan said.

On the Roland property in Nevada, Western Star sees a significant opportunity to contribute to domestic tungsten supply. Morgan highlighted that tungsten production is currently dominated by China, with no operating mines in North America. The historical grades at the Roland mine — reportedly 3% to 3.5% — significantly exceed the national average of 0.2%.

The company recently launched a private placement to raise up to $1.5 million, which Morgan said is oversubscribed and expected to close imminently. Proceeds will fund geophysics, channel sampling and drill targeting ahead of expected drilling in 2026.

      <title>Silver Range Resources adds 2 new gold projects in Nevada and Utah, expanding U.S. exploration</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Silver Range Resources CEO Mike Power joined Steve Darling to announce that the company has significantly expanded its U.S. project portfolio by staking two new early-stage gold exploration properties the Quinn Property in Nevada and the Drum Property in Utah. The additions strengthen Silver Range’s strategy of identifying high-grade, drill-ready targets across the American West.

Power explained that the Quinn Property, located in Humboldt County, Nevada (Sections 25 and 26, Township 42N Range 31E), hosts exposed mineralization within the Happy Creek Volcanics, a Triassic–Jurassic sequence of andesite flows and minor volcaniclastics. These rocks have undergone lower greenschist facies metamorphism and are cut by west-northwest trending shear zones. Historic workings on the property include a small mine cut with several short adits that follow parasitic northeast-trending structures, which may be linked to a more substantial west-trending shear system.

Silver Range staked and sampled the property in August 2025, collecting five grab samples that returned values ranging from 0.040 g/t to 27.5 g/t gold, with silver values up to 15.7 g/t. Notably, two of the five samples assayed above 5 g/t gold. Power added that historic data from Silver Range’s proprietary database includes a grab sample grading 46.6 g/t gold, further underscoring the property’s high-grade potential.

Power also detailed the staking of the Drum Property in Juab County, Utah (Sections 17, 18, and 20, Township 14S Range 11W). Here, gold mineralization occurs in widespread jasperoid replacements and breccias developed within Cambrian Orr Formation limestone. The geological setting, mineralization style, and geochemical signature bear strong similarities to Carlin-type systems found in Nevada, one of the most prolific gold-producing regions in the world.

Sampling conducted during staking returned gold values from trace amounts up to 1.02 g/t Au, with silver results ranging from trace to 15.2 g/t Ag from a total of 23 chip samples. Looking ahead, Silver Range plans to advance both projects with targeted exploration programs, including geological mapping, prospecting, and integrated geochemical and geophysical surveys. These efforts are designed to delineate mineralized zones and refine targets for potential future drilling.

      <itunes:summary>Silver Range Resources CEO Mike Power joined Steve Darling to announce that the company has significantly expanded its U.S. project portfolio by staking two new early-stage gold exploration properties the Quinn Property in Nevada and the Drum Property in Utah. The additions strengthen Silver Range’s strategy of identifying high-grade, drill-ready targets across the American West.

Power explained that the Quinn Property, located in Humboldt County, Nevada (Sections 25 and 26, Township 42N Range 31E), hosts exposed mineralization within the Happy Creek Volcanics, a Triassic–Jurassic sequence of andesite flows and minor volcaniclastics. These rocks have undergone lower greenschist facies metamorphism and are cut by west-northwest trending shear zones. Historic workings on the property include a small mine cut with several short adits that follow parasitic northeast-trending structures, which may be linked to a more substantial west-trending shear system.

Silver Range staked and sampled the property in August 2025, collecting five grab samples that returned values ranging from 0.040 g/t to 27.5 g/t gold, with silver values up to 15.7 g/t. Notably, two of the five samples assayed above 5 g/t gold. Power added that historic data from Silver Range’s proprietary database includes a grab sample grading 46.6 g/t gold, further underscoring the property’s high-grade potential.

Power also detailed the staking of the Drum Property in Juab County, Utah (Sections 17, 18, and 20, Township 14S Range 11W). Here, gold mineralization occurs in widespread jasperoid replacements and breccias developed within Cambrian Orr Formation limestone. The geological setting, mineralization style, and geochemical signature bear strong similarities to Carlin-type systems found in Nevada, one of the most prolific gold-producing regions in the world.

Sampling conducted during staking returned gold values from trace amounts up to 1.02 g/t Au, with silver results ranging from trace to 15.2 g/t Ag from a total of 23 chip samples. Looking ahead, Silver Range plans to advance both projects with targeted exploration programs, including geological mapping, prospecting, and integrated geochemical and geophysical surveys. These efforts are designed to delineate mineralized zones and refine targets for potential future drilling.

      <title>M2i Global, Nimy Resources advance Gallium offtake deal for non-chinese supply</title>
      <description><![CDATA[M2i Global CEO Alberto Rosende joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Nimy Resources, outlining plans to collaborate on forming commercially binding terms for the future sale and purchase of gallium production.
Rosende highlighted that the agreement comes at a strategically important time for the United States.

 The U.S. currently has no domestic primary gallium production and depends entirely on imports, with a substantial portion originating from China. Although China has temporarily lifted its export ban on gallium to the U.S. until November 2026, shipments remain under tight export controls requiring government-issued licenses. With gallium essential for semiconductors, defense systems, and clean-energy technologies, developing secure, non-Chinese supply pathways is now a national priority.

The MOU sets the stage for M2i and Nimy to work together on the potential supply of gallium sourced from Nimy’s Mons Project in Western Australia, which hosts a near-term JORC-compliant gallium resource along with other critical minerals, including rare earth elements. Rosende emphasized that the JORC Code—Australia’s strict professional standard for public mineral resource reporting—ensures transparency, reliability, and technical rigor in the evaluation of these resources.

The collaboration is exclusive to the Mons Project and does not extend to Nimy’s other assets. Under the MOU, both parties will now begin due diligence and negotiations toward a binding offtake agreement, focusing on commercial terms such as pricing structures, contracted volumes, and delivery logistics. Nimy continues to advance development of the Mons Project, including permitting and funding efforts, to align with the timelines envisioned in the agreement.

Rosende noted that if finalized, the partnership would mark an important step in building a resilient, non-Chinese supply of gallium for the U.S. market—supporting security of supply for the semiconductor, energy, and defense sectors.

      <title>Lumos Diagnostics strengthens U.S. market strategy with new AcuityMD data partnership</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Lumos Diagnostics Chief Commercial officer Paul Kase joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss a major step forward in the company’s U.S. commercialization strategy for FebriDx®, its rapid, 10-minute point-of-care test that helps clinicians quickly distinguish between bacterial and non-bacterial respiratory infections. The company has signed a strategic collaboration with U.S. med-tech data platform AcuityMD, a move designed to sharpen visibility into real-world reimbursement patterns and accelerate adoption across key clinical settings.

Kase explained that navigating the U.S. reimbursement landscape remains one of the most critical and complex challenges for diagnostic companies. While FebriDx is fast, accurate, and clinically validated, achieving consistent reimbursement from both private and public payers is essential for driving repeat ordering by physicians and expanding market penetration. The new partnership is intended to help Lumos close the often-significant gap between “published” reimbursement rates and actual payments received by clinicians — a common barrier that has historically slowed adoption of innovative diagnostics.

The collaboration comes at a pivotal time, as Lumos accelerates its U.S. rollout in partnership with commercial collaborator PRO-spectus, building on strong September-quarter performance and an expanding set of pilot programs across urgent care and primary care networks.

AcuityMD’s AI-driven platform integrates data from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and major claims aggregators, covering more than 330 million U.S. patients. By harmonizing national reimbursement data, the platform delivers clear insights into payer-specific behaviour, enabling Lumos to target markets and geographies where reimbursement is most predictable — and to identify gaps where additional education or billing support may be required.

Kase noted that this expanded visibility is expected to support more confident ordering among clinicians, reduce administrative uncertainty, and help Lumos drive sustainable, long-term adoption of FebriDx across the U.S. healthcare system.

      <title>Earthwise Minerals reports high-grade gold and silver from 2025 fieldwork at Iron Range project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Earthwise Minerals CEO Mark Luchinski joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has received encouraging assay results from its 2025 field program at the Iron Range Project in British Columbia, with samples returning grades up to 13.4 g/t gold, 27.2 g/t silver, >10,000 ppm arsenic, and 2.7% lead.

Earthwise holds an exclusive option to earn up to an 80% interest in the Iron Range Project from Eagle Plains Resources Ltd., which owns the property 100%. Management from both companies consider the project to have strong potential for multiple mineralization styles, including structurally controlled gold-silver, iron-oxide copper-gold (IOCG), and Sullivan-style lead-zinc-silver SEDEX mineralization. A portion of the property remains subject to a 1.0% NSR held by a third party.

Luchinski explained that the 2025 field program focused on detailed follow-up of historic soil and till geochemical anomalies, geological mapping, and prospecting along structural splays of the Iron Range Fault—a major regional structure associated with past discoveries. Work targeted the Pyromorphite, Star West, DIP, and Golden Cap zones.

In total, geological crews from Terralogic Exploration Inc. collected 531 soil samples, 15 rock samples, and 5 heavy mineral concentrates. The high-grade assays and strong pathfinder elements support the company’s belief that multiple mineralized structures remain underexplored across the district-scale property.

Earthwise expects the new results to guide its next phase of exploration as it works toward defining drill-ready targets for future programs.

      <title>ReElement Technologies signs major processing agreement with ERI to boost rare earth supply chain</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp CEO Mark Jensen joined Steve Darling to announce that its subsidiary ReElement Technologies has signed a new commercial processing agreement with Electronic Recyclers International or ERI, the nation’s largest electronics recycler and a leader in ITAD, mobility, and data destruction services.
Jensen explained that under the partnership, ERI will use its global collection network and eight U.S. recycling facilities to aggregate and pre-process end-of-life magnet materials, a key source of rare earth elements used in electric vehicles, defense systems, and advanced technologies. ReElement will then refine this material into high-purity rare earth oxides through its advanced modular processing platform.

This agreement marks a major advancement in building a domestic, circular, and secure rare earth supply chain at a time of accelerating U.S. demand for critical minerals. By combining ERI’s scale in responsible electronics recycling with ReElement’s high-efficiency refining technology, the collaboration will create a reliable domestic stream of high-value rare earth outputs.

Jensen added that ERI’s use of proprietary AI-driven hardware and software systems allows it to precisely identify, extract, and separate materials containing magnets and rare earth elements at high purity. This enhances the volume and quality of recycled feedstock that can be refined into strategic mineral products, further strengthening the United States’ independence in critical materials.

      <title>Ilika reports key milestones in Stereax and Goliath solid-state battery programs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ilika CEO Graeme Purdy joined Steve Darling from Proactive to deliver a trading update for the six months ended 31 October, outlining significant operational progress across the company’s Stereax and Goliath solid-state battery platforms. 

The update comes ahead of Ilika’s full interim results, scheduled for release in January.
Purdy reported that the Stereax M300 micro-battery production line—now operated at Cirtec Medical’s facility in Massachusetts—has successfully completed process qualification, a major milestone that clears the path toward commercial output. With this achievement in place, Ilika is targeting initial deliveries to lead customers in Q4 2025, marking the first commercial rollout of the next-generation M300 product.

On the large-format battery side, Ilika confirmed that customer testing has validated its Goliath 2Ah P1 cells, demonstrating performance that aligns with expectations for early-stage prototypes. The company remains on track to ship 10Ah Goliath prototypes in December, with 50Ah prototypes to follow based on market demand.
Financially, Purdy noted that Ilika expects revenue of £0.6 million for the period, largely reflecting activity associated with the DRIVE35 automotive programme. The company anticipates an EBITDA loss of £3.2 million, which Purdy attributed to increased development expenses and prototype manufacturing costs as Ilika accelerates its transition toward commercialisation.

Overall, the company said it remains encouraged by customer engagement and the ongoing validation of its solid-state battery technologies, positioning Ilika for meaningful technical and commercial milestones in 2026 and beyond.

      <title>Zephyr Energy moves Paradox Basin forward with refinancing and well tie-in progress</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Zephyr Energy PLC CEO Colin Harrington joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide a comprehensive update on the company’s ongoing development work in the Paradox Basin, Utah, alongside significant advancements in the company’s financial structure and strategic growth plans.

Operationally, Harrington highlighted that Zephyr’s primary focus is now on integrating the three previously drilled Paradox Basin wells, which are positioned to deliver near-term hydrocarbon production following the recent Competent Person’s Report, which confirmed a major upgrade in the company’s reserves and resources.
The company continues to work closely with Enbridge on engineering and commercial documentation relating to its planned natural-gas transportation service, while simultaneously advancing required regulatory approvals. Zephyr is also nearing the final selection of a marketing partner for its natural gas and associated liquids, a key step toward commercializing upcoming production volumes.

In addition, Zephyr has taken a strategic step to secure future growth by nominating a substantial amount of acreage for inclusion in forthcoming U.S. federal lease sales. Over the past three months, the company has nominated more than 60,000 net contiguous acres, positioning itself strongly for potential expansion. Management believes Zephyr’s existing acreage position and infrastructure footprint will offer a significant competitive advantage during upcoming federal auctions.


Harrington announced that Zephyr has successfully refinanced its existing borrowing base and secured additional short-term loan facilities to support accelerated near-term development. The company’s senior lender, First International Bank & Trust (FIBT) of North Dakota, recently completed its semi-annual borrowing-base redetermination and reaffirmed the full value of Zephyr’s existing credit capacity.

As of now, Zephyr’s total borrowing with FIBT stands at approximately US$22.1 million, down substantially from US$35.3 million in January 2024 and US$27.4 million in October 2024. FIBT’s latest evaluation placed the PV-10 value of Zephyr’s non-Paradox proved developed producing (PDP) assets at more than US$46 million, supporting the reaffirmed borrowing base. As part of the refinancing, Zephyr consolidated its two outstanding term loans with FIBT into a single, more efficient facility with a lower blended interest rate, improving the company’s financial flexibility.

Harrington emphasized that these financial and operational milestones collectively position Zephyr for a transformative phase of development and value creation across its Paradox Basin portfolio.

      <title>Replenish Nutrients lands major U.S. licensing deal, unlocks access to 70M acres of farmland</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Replenish Nutrients CEO Neil Wiens joined Steve Darling to announce the company has finalized a significant three-year licensing agreement with Farmers Union Enterprises (FUE), marking Replenish’s first major expansion into the United States. FUE, along with Farmers Union Marketing and Processors Association, holds majority ownership in Farmers Union Industries (FUI)—a 95-year-old, farmer-owned organization representing nearly 70 million acres of cropland across Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. 

Wiens told Proactive that this agreement provides Replenish with immediate and unprecedented access to one of the largest continuous agricultural regions in North America. He emphasized that the partnership offers a capital-light pathway for scaling the production of SuperKS, Replenish’s patented regenerative fertilizer pellet and one of the company’s flagship product innovations.

Under the initial three-year term, FUE gains the exclusive rights to manufacture and distribute SuperKS across its five-state network, with opportunities to expand into additional territories and to add future Replenish technologies to its portfolio. The deal enables rapid commercialization without requiring Replenish to invest heavily in new U.S. infrastructure.

As part of the agreement, FUI will renovate and operate a recently acquired processing facility in Crookston, Minnesota, which will serve as the manufacturing hub for SuperKS production. The plant will launch with an annual output capability of 50,000 metric tonnes, with the ability to scale up to 100,000 metric tonnes through continuous 24-hour operations.

Wiens described the partnership as a “transformational step” for Replenish Nutrients, positioning the company to accelerate the adoption of regenerative agriculture practices across one of the most influential farming regions in the United States.

As part of the agreement, FUI will renovate and operate a recently acquired processing facility in Crookston, Minnesota, which will serve as the manufacturing hub for SuperKS production. The plant will launch with an annual output capability of 50,000 metric tonnes, with the ability to scale up to 100,000 metric tonnes through continuous 24-hour operations.

Wiens described the partnership as a “transformational step” for Replenish Nutrients, positioning the company to accelerate the adoption of regenerative agriculture practices across one of the most influential farming regions in the United States.

      <itunes:subtitle>Replenish Nutrients CEO Neil Wiens joined Steve Darling to announce the company has finalized a significant three-year licensing agreement with Farmers Union Enterprises (FUE), marking Replenish’s first major expansion into the United States. FUE, along with Farmers Union Marketing and Processors Association, holds majority ownership in Farmers Union Industries (FUI)—a 95-year-old, farmer-owned organization representing nearly 70 million acres of cropland across Minnesota, Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. 

Wiens told Proactive that this agreement provides Replenish with immediate and unprecedented access to one of the largest continuous agricultural regions in North America. He emphasized that the partnership offers a capital-light pathway for scaling the production of SuperKS, Replenish’s patented regenerative fertilizer pellet and one of the company’s flagship product innovations.

      <title>Rome Resources to raise £1.9M for new drilling at Bisie North Tin project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rome Resources CEO Paul Barrett joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company plans to raise £1.9 million through a share placement to fund its next major exploration phase at the Bisie North tin project in the Democratic Republic of Congo. The financing remains subject to regulatory approvals.

Barrett explained that the new drilling campaign will focus on high-priority targets, particularly the deeper zones of the Kalayi and Mont Agoma deposits, where the company sees significant discovery potential. Rome estimates the program could uncover between 53,000 and 144,000 tonnes of additional mineral resources—substantially expanding on the 10,600 tonnes of inferred resources declared last month at Bisie North.

Pending financing completion, drilling is expected to begin in approximately two weeks and continue for three to four months. Barrett noted that helicopters and drilling crews are preparing for mobilisation.
If successful, the upcoming program could meaningfully advance Bisie North toward becoming a future contributor to the DRC’s tin supply, a sector currently dominated—at roughly 99% in 2024—by Alphamin Resources’ producing Bisie mine.

      <title>Nextech3D.AI hits record growth &amp; integration milestones; Map D powers 800 interactive event floors</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.AI CEO Evan Gappelberg joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a series of major, interconnected milestones for the company, underscoring its aggressive market position and commitment to integrated event technology. These achievements span the company's core platforms, marking a significant step forward in their mission to unify the event technology ecosystem.

Key announcements include the successful integration of major components into the Nextech3D.AI unified event-tech platform is now complete, including the accelerated integration of its newly acquired Eventdex registration system. The deployment of the proprietary AI matchmaking engine has been significantly expanded, offering enhanced networking and lead generation capabilities to event organizers and exhibitors. The company has reached a landmark production milestone of 800 interactive event floor plans in 2025. This record output is directly tied to the success of its Map D interactive floor plan management platform.

Through its flagship platforms—Map D and Eventdex—Nextech3D.AI powers thousands of events annually. The integrated suite offers comprehensive solutions, including interactive floor mapping, sophisticated exhibitor management, seamless registration, robust ticketing, high-utility mobile applications, cutting-edge AR navigation, and precision AI matchmaking.

Gappelberg further detailed the success of the company’s Map D division, which has achieved its highest annual output to date with the creation of 800 interactive event floor plans this year. Interactive floor plans have quickly become one of the Company's most widely adopted products. They are leveraged by associations, major trade shows, and corporate conference organizers globally to strategically sell exhibitor booths, efficiently manage complex event layouts, and dramatically drive sponsor and exhibitor visibility. Crucially, every floor plan deployment now represents an entire event lifecycle opportunity where the company is positioned to sell multiple complementary modules.

The company is decisively gaining significant momentum heading into 2026. This momentum is fueled by sequential quarterly revenue growth. Furthermore, the company maintains strong gross margins. This sustained financial performance is driven by increased market demand for its multi-product bundles, which typically combine registration, mapping, AI matchmaking, and ticketing. Nextech3D.AI is actively expanding its 2026 event pipeline across key verticals, including professional associations, major trade shows, and high-profile corporate conferences.

      <title>Frank Holmes sees global travel surge fueling growth for JETS and TRIP ETFs</title>
      <description><![CDATA[U.S. Global Investors CEO Frank Holmes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the continued strength in global travel trends and how they are benefiting two of the firm’s key exchange-traded funds: the JETS ETF, listed on the NYSE, and the TRIP ETF, listed on the London Stock Exchange. Holmes emphasized that global travel demand remains exceptionally strong despite macroeconomic uncertainties and operational disruptions.

Holmes noted that the surge in travel is so intense that airlines are now placing passengers on waitlists even when they attempt to use reward points for upgrades. “The demand is so big, they do not take your points to give you the upgrade — they now take your points and put you on a waitlist,” he explained.

He also pointed to the resilience of air travel during recent challenges, including the U.S. government shutdown and labor actions in Canada. Despite these hurdles, Transportation Security Administration staff continued working, helping facilitate record-breaking travel volumes.

Holmes described a significant post-pandemic psychological shift among consumers, with travelers increasingly prioritizing experiences. Cruise lines—which faced intense scrutiny during the COVID-19 pandemic—have rebounded dramatically. He compared modern cruise ships to “floating hotels,” noting that demand is surging to all-time highs. Meanwhile, rising hotel and airfare costs in destinations such as Japan and Europe reflect the broader global enthusiasm for travel.

Given these trends, Holmes believes the TRIP ETF, which provides exposure to both cruise lines and airline stocks, is well positioned to benefit from sustained strength across the travel sector.

      <title>RadioPharm Theranostics reaches 50% enrollment in Phase 2b RAD101 study for imaging brain metastases</title>
      <description><![CDATA[RadioPharm Theranostics CEO Riccardo Canevari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a significant clinical milestone for the company. Its Phase 2b trial evaluating RAD101, an advanced molecular imaging agent, in patients with brain metastases has now reached 50% patient enrollment, marking strong momentum as the study progresses toward completion.

The ongoing U.S. multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase 2b trial is assessing the diagnostic performance of 18F-RAD101 in 30 individuals with confirmed recurrent brain metastases originating from a range of solid tumors. The trial’s primary endpoint is the concordance between 18F-RAD101–positive lesions and those detected through conventional MRI with gadolinium, the current imaging standard for suspected recurrent disease.

Canevari emphasized the importance of this milestone, noting that reaching the halfway point in enrollment represents meaningful progress for the RAD101 program. He added that the study aims to demonstrate RAD101’s potential to distinguish true tumor recurrence from radiation necrosis—a major clinical challenge for patients previously treated with therapeutic radiation. Continued enrollment momentum supports the company’s confidence in completing the trial and reporting topline results in the first half of 2026.

RAD101 is RadioPharm’s novel imaging small molecule designed to target fatty acid synthase (FASN), an enzyme that is highly overexpressed in numerous solid tumors, including metastatic lesions in the brain. The program has been further strengthened by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Fast Track Designation, which recognizes the agent’s potential to differentiate recurrent disease from treatment-related effects across multiple tumor types, including leptomeningeal disease.

      <itunes:summary>RadioPharm Theranostics CEO Riccardo Canevari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a significant clinical milestone for the company. Its Phase 2b trial evaluating RAD101, an advanced molecular imaging agent, in patients with brain metastases has now reached 50% patient enrollment, marking strong momentum as the study progresses toward completion.

The ongoing U.S. multicenter, open-label, single-arm Phase 2b trial is assessing the diagnostic performance of 18F-RAD101 in 30 individuals with confirmed recurrent brain metastases originating from a range of solid tumors. The trial’s primary endpoint is the concordance between 18F-RAD101–positive lesions and those detected through conventional MRI with gadolinium, the current imaging standard for suspected recurrent disease.

Canevari emphasized the importance of this milestone, noting that reaching the halfway point in enrollment represents meaningful progress for the RAD101 program. He added that the study aims to demonstrate RAD101’s potential to distinguish true tumor recurrence from radiation necrosis—a major clinical challenge for patients previously treated with therapeutic radiation. Continued enrollment momentum supports the company’s confidence in completing the trial and reporting topline results in the first half of 2026.

RAD101 is RadioPharm’s novel imaging small molecule designed to target fatty acid synthase (FASN), an enzyme that is highly overexpressed in numerous solid tumors, including metastatic lesions in the brain. The program has been further strengthened by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration’s Fast Track Designation, which recognizes the agent’s potential to differentiate recurrent disease from treatment-related effects across multiple tumor types, including leptomeningeal disease.

      <title>Millennial Potash reports major resource growth as updated MRE expands Banio measured &amp; indicated</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Millennial Potash Chairman Farhad Abasov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to unveil the results of a significantly upgraded Mineral Resource Estimate for the northern portion of the company’s Banio Potash Project in Gabon. The update was completed by ERCOSPLAN, one of the world’s most respected potash consulting firms and a specialist with deep expertise in the West African Potash Basin. Banio is located at the northern end of the West African Evaporite Basin, a region recognized globally as a proven and productive potash district.

Abasov highlighted the dramatic upgrades delivered in the new estimate, noting that the project had no Measured Resource only a year ago. Today, the combined Measured and Indicated (M&I) Resource has surged by 275%, while the Inferred Resource has increased by 210% compared to the maiden estimate published in 2024. The new MRE includes 2.42 billion tonnes of Measured + Indicated Carnallitite grading 15.5% KCl and 3.6 billion tonnes of Inferred Carnallitite grading 15.4% KCl.

Abasov described this expansion as “massive,” underscoring the consistency and scale of the potash seams encountered across all drilling to date—some exceeding 100 metres in thickness. This, he said, provides strong evidence of the grade, continuity, and geometry needed to support highly efficient solution mining operations.
The company also confirmed that the updated resource represents only a fraction of the northern section of the full project area. 

Looking ahead, the new MRE will serve as a critical foundation for the upcoming Feasibility Study. That study is being supported by a non-dilutive US$3 million funding commitment from the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation. The FS will evaluate a range of solution mining production scenarios as the company advances toward potential development.

      <title>IXICO secures £3.5M phase 3 trial contract as CEO highlights Huntington’s research momentum</title>
      <description><![CDATA[IXICO Plc CEO Bram Goorden joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss a major milestone for the company, announcing the signing of a new commercial agreement with a global pharmaceutical partner. Under the contract, IXICO will deliver its specialized neuroimaging services for a worldwide Phase 3 clinical trial in Huntington’s disease (HD)—a deal valued at more than £3.5 million over four years.

Goorden explained that this partnership underscores IXICO’s established reputation as a leading provider of advanced imaging solutions in neurological drug development. The company’s work will support one of the most significant late-stage studies currently underway in Huntington’s disease, a condition that continues to see growing investment and scientific progress.

He highlighted that momentum in Huntington’s disease research is accelerating, driven by promising therapeutic candidates and a strengthened commitment across the industry to address this devastating rare disorder. HD is an inherited neurodegenerative disease that causes the gradual destruction of nerve cells in the brain, leading to profound impacts on motor coordination, cognition, behaviour, and emotional health. With no cure and limited treatment options, advances in clinical research are crucial for patients and families affected by the condition.

IXICO brings a deep and well-recognized expertise to Huntington’s disease clinical trials. The company has been an active and respected contributor to the global HD research ecosystem for more than a decade. Goorden noted that IXICO’s strengths—including its highly refined HD imaging biomarkers, sophisticated trial management capabilities, and state-of-the-art image analysis technology—continue to make it a partner of choice for pharmaceutical sponsors pursuing next-generation therapies.

He added that the new contract not only reflects confidence in IXICO’s technical capabilities but also reinforces the company’s role as a key enabler of scientific progress in rare neurological diseases.

      <title>Algernon Health partners with American Molecular Imaging to build U.S. Brain PET clinic network</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Algernon Health CEO Christopher Moreau joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has entered into a significant strategic business and investment agreement with American Molecular Imaging, one of the premier radiology reading services providers in the United States. The partnership is designed to ensure that every patient visiting Algernon’s planned U.S. brain-focused neuroimaging clinics receives top-tier PET scan interpretations delivered with unmatched accuracy and turnaround times.

Moreau explained that Algernon’s planned clinic network will introduce the first dedicated, brain-optimized PET neuroimaging centers in the United States, facilities engineered to detect early signs of Alzheimer’s disease with exceptional precision. In addition to Alzheimer’s diagnostics, the clinics will offer advanced PET imaging for a broad range of neurological conditions, including other dementias, epilepsy, neuro-oncology indications, and movement disorders.

Under the terms of the new partnership, AMI will become the exclusive radiology reading services provider for all of Algernon’s future neuroimaging clinics. To further strengthen the collaboration, AMI will make a US$250,000 strategic investment in Algernon’s recently announced private placement, and an additional US$250,000 investment into Algernon USA LLC—the company’s newly formed subsidiary tasked with overseeing all U.S. neuroimaging operations. Algernon USA LLC is leading efforts to open the first clinic, currently targeted for early 2026. 

Moreau also highlighted another key milestone: Algernon has finalized an equipment order, financing package, and consulting agreement with Catalyst MedTech, a recognized leader in medical imaging technologies. This non-dilutive arrangement, valued at over CAD $4 million, includes four FDA-cleared Oncovision CareMiBrain™ PET scanner systems that will equip the first wave of Algernon’s U.S. clinics. The deal also provides for the acquisition of six additional systems at a reduced cost as the company expands its footprint across the country.

      <title>Red Rock Resources advances mining and social housing projects in DRC via public-private partnership</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Red Rock Resources Plc. Chairman and CEO Andrew Bell joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company’s operations in the Democratic Republic of Congo, where it is advancing both mining and social housing initiatives through a public-private partnership (PPP) approach.

Bell noted that while Red Rock has historically held gold and exploration assets in Australia, Kenya, and Colombia, the company is now primarily focused on African opportunities. Addressing prior disputes over assets in the DRC, Bell said, “We have very good projects, but they were subject to illegal, deceptive actions. We have those taken from us.” The company is pursuing compensation through local courts, seeking $10 million plus $2 million in costs and damages.

In parallel, Red Rock has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Ministry of Road Development in the DRC to fund a large-scale social housing programme using revenues generated from mining operations. The initiative leverages the country’s Public-Private Partnership Act of 2014. Bell added that the project is gaining momentum, with the government committing to purchase the first three construction plants to kickstart development.

The CEO emphasized the government’s eagerness to launch the initiative quickly, with a funding announcement expected soon. Red Rock is also evaluating initial copper-cobalt mining projects to provide financial support for the housing programme, integrating natural resource development with socio-economic impact initiatives.

      <title>HIVE delivers record dual-engine growth as Bitcoin hashrate surges and BUZZ HPC demand accelerates</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hive Digital Technologies Executive Chairman Frank Holmes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to the most recent quarter represents the strongest period of dual-engine growth in the company’s history, driven by rapid expansion in both its Bitcoin mining operations and its high-performance computing (HPC) business.

Holmes highlighted that the company successfully scaled its Bitcoin mining fleet to 16.2 EH/s by September 30, 2025, and has since reached 25 EH/s currently operational, marking one of the most aggressive efficiency and capacity expansions in the sector. This contributed to digital currency mining revenue of $82.1 million, a 101.2% sequential increase, supported by an 86.2% quarter-over-quarter rise in average hashrate and a modest lift in Bitcoin prices.

Direct mining costs totaled $42.1 million, with approximately 88% tied directly to energy, underscoring the company’s ongoing focus on cost discipline and optimized power management.

Holmes emphasized that this was a defining quarter for HIVE, with both business pillars—Bitcoin mining and the BUZZ HPC division—achieving record revenue. He noted that while Bitcoin hashprice rose only about 25% year-over-year, HIVE’s revenue surged 285% thanks to aggressive hashrate growth and operational efficiencies. He also underscored the company’s deployment capabilities, pointing to the rapid construction of 300 MW of infrastructure in Paraguay within just six months, demonstrating HIVE’s ability to build at global scale with speed and precision.

Holmes also announced a new milestone for HIVE’s subsidiary BUZZ High Performance Computing. BUZZ has signed an agreement with Dell Technologies to deploy its next major wave of AI infrastructure and has formalized operating agreements with Bell for Phase 1 of the BUZZ and Bell AI Fabric rollout.

Under the new agreement, BUZZ will deploy a 63-node cluster of liquid-cooled Dell PowerEdge XE9680L servers, powered by 504 next-generation GPUs specifically optimized for AI computing. These systems will be delivered using Dell’s Integrated Rack Scalable Systems (IRSS) architecture, with full installation scheduled at the Bell AI Fabric data center.

This deployment builds on BUZZ’s expanding collaboration with Bell and supports the continued development of BUZZ’s sovereign AI Cloud, designed to meet the rising demand for advanced, domestic AI compute capacity.

      <title>Tonix Pharmaceuticals teams up with MGH to advance Phase 2 trial of TNX-1500</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tonix Pharmaceuticals Holding Corp. (Nasdaq:TNXP) CEO Dr. Seth Lederman talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's collaboration with Massachusetts General Hospital, affiliated with Harvard Medical School, to advance the clinical development of TNX-1500. 

Lederman explained that the partnership supports an Investigator Initiated Phase 2 clinical trial focused on kidney transplant recipients. Study initiation is contingent on institutional review board (IRB) approval and FDA clearance of the investigator-initiated investigational new drug application (IND). 

The study will assess TNX-1500, an anti-CD40 ligand monoclonal antibody, alongside a low-dose regimen of tacrolimus. The goal is to reduce or potentially eliminate the need for conventional immunosuppressive therapy. “We believe that the relatively low dose of tacrolimus should not have the same side effects that are associated with the higher dose,” Lederman said. 

The company views TNX-1500 as a differentiated approach to transplant immunology, aiming for immunomodulation rather than traditional immunosuppression. If successful, the product could become a standalone therapy. “Ultimately, the TNX-1500 could be monotherapy,” he noted, with the current study designed for regulatory expediency. 

Lederman also highlighted longer-term potential, noting that TNX-1500 may have applications beyond transplantation, including autoimmune conditions such as lupus. Key features include once-monthly dosing and what the company believes is best-in-class potency, supported by completed pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic studies.

      <title>New Era Energy &amp; Digital accelerates AI infrastructure strategy amid growing industry interest</title>
      <description><![CDATA[New Era Energy & Digital CEO Will Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s ongoing transformation from a conventional helium and natural gas operator into a next-generation AI infrastructure and power solutions leader. Gray emphasized that the company’s third-quarter financial results reflect not a slowdown in traditional operations, but a deliberate and strategic redeployment of capital toward high-value digital infrastructure.

Gray explained that New Era is heavily investing in the development of its powered shell data centers in Odessa, Texas, a region increasingly recognized as a prime location for energy-intensive AI and high-performance computing deployments. The CEO noted that constructing these facilities requires sophisticated planning, major engineering work, and significant capital, with build-out costs ranging from $8 million to $12 million per megawatt—a level of investment consistent with global hyperscale data-center economics.

Reflecting on the company’s early pivot into behind-the-meter power solutions, Gray recalled the initial skepticism New Era faced when it began positioning itself ahead of the AI-infrastructure boom.
“We were laughed at a year ago… now that’s all anyone’s talking about,” he said, highlighting how industry sentiment has since shifted as grid constraints and soaring power demand become central issues across North America.

Gray confirmed that New Era is currently in active discussions with multiple potential tenants, including major technology operators evaluating the company’s West Texas assets. However, he emphasized the rigorous due-diligence process required for hyperscale and AI-compute clients, who assess power reliability, infrastructure scalability, and long-term energy economics before committing to multi-year leases.
On the financing front, Gray made it clear that New Era’s build-out will be funded primarily through institutional and asset-level project financing, rather than relying heavily on equity raises. This approach, he said, is designed to protect shareholders from unnecessary dilution while generating compelling returns from long-term data-center revenue streams.

Gray added that New Era’s strategy—combining energy-sector expertise, behind-the-meter power, and a high-growth digital infrastructure model—has attracted the attention of tier-one financial institutions, private credit providers, and major technology firms, all of whom are seeking scalable power solutions for AI and high-performance computing.

      <itunes:subtitle>New Era Energy &amp; Digital CEO Will Gray joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s ongoing transformation from a conventional helium and natural gas operator into a next-generation AI infrastructure and power solutions leader. Gray emphasized that the company’s third-quarter financial results reflect not a slowdown in traditional operations, but a deliberate and strategic redeployment of capital toward high-value digital infrastructure.

Gray explained that New Era is heavily investing in the development of its powered shell data centers in Odessa, Texas, a region increasingly recognized as a prime location for energy-intensive AI and high-performance computing deployments. The CEO noted that constructing these facilities requires sophisticated planning, major engineering work, and significant capital, with build-out costs ranging from $8 million to $12 million per megawatt—a level of investment consistent with global hyperscale data-center economics.

Reflecting on the company’s early pivot into behind-the-meter power solutions, Gray recalled the initial skepticism New Era faced when it began positioning itself ahead of the AI-infrastructure boom.
“We were laughed at a year ago… now that’s all anyone’s talking about,” he said, highlighting how industry sentiment has since shifted as grid constraints and soaring power demand become central issues across North America.

Gray confirmed that New Era is currently in active discussions with multiple potential tenants, including major technology operators evaluating the company’s West Texas assets. However, he emphasized the rigorous due-diligence process required for hyperscale and AI-compute clients, who assess power reliability, infrastructure scalability, and long-term energy economics before committing to multi-year leases.
On the financing front, Gray made it clear that New Era’s build-out will be funded primarily through institutional and asset-level project financing, rather than relying heavily on equity raises. This approach, he said, is designed to protect shareholders from unnecessary dilution while generating compelling returns from long-term data-center revenue streams.

Gray added that New Era’s strategy—combining energy-sector expertise, behind-the-meter power, and a high-growth digital infrastructure model—has attracted the attention of tier-one financial institutions, private credit providers, and major technology firms, all of whom are seeking scalable power solutions for AI and high-performance computing.

      <title>Meren Q3 results: Shahin Amini talks Prime amalgamation, Nigeria assets &amp; $100m dividend</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Meren Energy Inc (TSX:MER, OTCQX:MRNFF) investor relations manager Shahin Amini talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s third-quarter results, highlighting the strategic and financial significance of its Prime Oil & Gas amalgamation.

Amini described the deal as “transformational,” saying it doubled the company’s reserves and production base. Importantly, it also gave Meren full control over financial decision-making at Prime, which holds key assets in Nigeria, including the Agbami, Egina, and Akpo fields operated by Chevron and TotalEnergies.

He confirmed that Meren has declared its fourth quarterly dividend for 2025, totalling approximately $25 million and bringing the full-year distribution to $100 million. The company also reduced its outstanding OPL debt facility as part of its strategy to maintain a robust balance sheet and minimize interest expenses.

Discussing growth, Amini said: “We try to secure our organic growth opportunities without stretching the balance sheet.” He pointed to Namibia’s Venus development, where TotalEnergies will fund Meren’s share through to first production, as a prime example.

Looking ahead to 2026, Amini highlighted exploration opportunities in Namibia, South Africa, and Equatorial Guinea, noting that success in these regions could be transformational for the company’s reserve base and future production outlook.

      <title>How PT Asset Management targets 5–6% returns in bonds</title>
      <description><![CDATA[PT Asset Management CEO Sean Dranfield talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about navigating the current interest rate environment through the company’s Performance Trust Total Return Bond UCITS ETF.

Dranfield outlined how the fund is outperforming its benchmark despite recent market headwinds, attributing this success to a deliberate balance of offensive and defensive allocations. “We’re trying to source total return from these nontraditional sources,” he said, noting the unpredictability of interest rates as a key consideration in their approach.

He highlighted that elevated yield levels across the curve make today’s bond market a more compelling environment than in previous years. On the offensive side, Dranfield pointed to the steepness of the yield curve—particularly in the 20-year Treasury and municipal bond space—as an underappreciated driver of total return that traditional yield and duration metrics often miss.

On the defensive end, he noted that interest-only commercial mortgage-backed securities (CMBS) and very short investment-grade corporates offer yield without significant rate risk. These instruments help the fund remain rate-agnostic while still targeting total returns in the 5% to 6% range.

Dranfield also expressed concern about tight spreads in investment-grade corporates, prompting the team to look elsewhere for opportunities with better risk-reward dynamics. “There are some really interesting opportunities both offensively and defensively right now,” he noted.

      <title>Oriole Resources CEO says £1.8m capital raise is a strong endorsement of Cameroon projects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Oriole Resources PLC (AIM:ORR) CEO Martin Rosser talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s successful £1.8 million capital raise and how the funds will support key gold exploration activities in Cameroon.

Rosser confirmed a £1.8 million placing and a further £200,000 retail offer, both priced at the previous day’s closing bid with warrants attached. "We're delighted that we've announced a £1.8 million placing today and a further retail offer... not being done at a discount," he said.

Institutional participation, particularly from RAB Capital, which now holds a 2.1% stake, was described as a strong endorsement. Rosser highlighted that institutional backing is “vital if we are to grow the value of Oriole for the benefit of all shareholders.”

The proceeds will fund the MB01-N drilling campaign, aimed at converting an existing exploration target of 372,000 to 605,000 ounces of gold into JORC-compliant resources. Further work is planned at MB01-S and across nearby licences - Pokor, Ndom and Tenekou - all within the same regional trend.

Funds will also support surface sampling and advanced studies at the Bibemi project to back its exploitation license application. Rosser described the upcoming program as a "busy and productive time" with significant news flow expected.

      <title>EnergyPathways CEO on KBR &amp; Hazer tie-up; MESH update</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EnergyPathways PLC (AIM:EPP) CEO Ben Clube talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s progress on its MESH hydrogen and graphite project, including engineering work now underway with partners KBR and Hazer. 

The company is advancing a methane pyrolysis-based hydrogen production plant that also yields graphite as a valuable by-product. Clube said the technology offers a “low-cost form of producing hydrogen,” which the company believes can be delivered at a fraction of the cost of green hydrogen via electrolysis.

The discussion covered how KBR and Hazer will now undertake engineering design work for the hydrogen and graphite facilities. According to Clube, the hydrogen produced could serve two key markets: low-carbon ammonia production — a capability the UK currently lacks following the closure of its last ammonia facility — and hydrogen-to-power applications within the broader MESH project. He noted that the UK presents an opportunity to establish domestic industrial capacity for both hydrogen and low-carbon ammonia.

Clube also highlighted the scale and strategic importance of the graphite by-product. EnergyPathways is targeting output of 60,000 tonnes per year. With the UK producing none of its own graphite and classifying it as a critical mineral, Clube emphasised that the company can offer a domestic supply solution. 

The company expects concept design studies to conclude early next year, with the MESH components targeted for operation in 2030 in line with UK clean-power ambitions.

      <itunes:subtitle>EnergyPathways PLC (AIM:EPP) CEO Ben Clube talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s progress on its MESH hydrogen and graphite project, including engineering work now underway with partners KBR and Hazer. 

The company is advancing a methane pyrolysis-based hydrogen production plant that also yields graphite as a valuable by-product. Clube said the technology offers a “low-cost form of producing hydrogen,” which the company believes can be delivered at a fraction of the cost of green hydrogen via electrolysis.

The discussion covered how KBR and Hazer will now undertake engineering design work for the hydrogen and graphite facilities. According to Clube, the hydrogen produced could serve two key markets: low-carbon ammonia production — a capability the UK currently lacks following the closure of its last ammonia facility — and hydrogen-to-power applications within the broader MESH project. He noted that the UK presents an opportunity to establish domestic industrial capacity for both hydrogen and low-carbon ammonia.

Clube also highlighted the scale and strategic importance of the graphite by-product. EnergyPathways is targeting output of 60,000 tonnes per year. With the UK producing none of its own graphite and classifying it as a critical mineral, Clube emphasised that the company can offer a domestic supply solution. 

The company expects concept design studies to conclude early next year, with the MESH components targeted for operation in 2030 in line with UK clean-power ambitions.

      <title>Immunic CEO on Q3 highlights, ECTRIMS 2025 and upcoming milestones</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX) CEO Dr Daniel Vitt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s third-quarter highlights, with a particular focus on the progress of its oral MS treatment, vidofludimus calcium.

Dr Vitt noted the company had a strong presence at the 2025 ECTRIMS conference, presenting important new data from several clinical studies. These included results from the phase 2 CALLIPER study, which showed a statistically significant effect on confirmed disability improvement, and promising data in primary progressive MS patients showing a numerical benefit in slowing disability worsening.

He also referenced findings from the EMPhASIS phase 2 open-label extension trial. According to Vitt, “144 weeks later, still 92.3% of the patients were free of 12-week confirmed disability worsening,” highlighting the durability of the drug’s effects and its favorable safety and tolerability profile.

Discussing the upcoming ENSURE phase 3 trials in relapsing MS, Vitt explained the company is targeting statistically significant results on the primary endpoint of time to first relapse, with topline data expected in 2026. Secondary endpoints aim to confirm the drug’s neuroprotective potential.

He also pointed to recently granted US patents, which strengthen commercial protection for vidofludimus calcium in both relapsing and progressive MS, potentially extending exclusivity beyond 2041.

      <title>Millennial Potash welcomes U.S. Geological Survey’s inclusion of Potash on critical minerals list</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Millennial Potash Chairman Farhad Abasov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s support for the U.S. Geological Survey’s decision to add potash to the 2025 List of Critical Minerals, recognizing its strategic importance to global food security and supply chain resilience.

Abasov said the inclusion underscores growing international efforts to diversify supply and reduce reliance on dominant producers such as Canada, Russia, and Belarus. Potash is a vital agricultural input used in fertilizer production, essential for maintaining crop yields and global food supply stability.

Millennial also highlighted a recent Financial Times report referencing the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation’s (DFC) commitment of US$3 million in project development funding for Millennial’s Banio Potash Project in Gabon. The funding is aimed at supporting feasibility studies and de-risking the project, with the potential to unlock additional U.S. financing in the future.

The DFC, a U.S. government agency that supports private-sector initiatives in developing regions, has invested approximately US$13 billion across 300 projects in 26 Sub-Saharan African countries.

Located on Gabon’s Atlantic coast, the Banio Project offers direct shipping access to key markets in the United States, Brazil, and Africa. A Preliminary Economic Assessment released in April 2024 outlined an after-tax NPV (10%) of US$1.07 billion and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 32.6%, based on operating costs of US$61 per ton of granular potash.

Abasov added that a revised mineral resource estimate is currently in progress, following recent drilling that revealed potash-rich horizons up to 100 meters thick, further underscoring the project’s large-scale potential.

      <title>Quantum Blockchain cuts time-to-market for miners with &apos;software only&apos; version of Method C</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest breakthrough — a software-only version of Method C AI Oracle, which enhances Bitcoin mining efficiency without requiring hardware changes.

Gardin explained that this new version allows the integration of Oracle at the operating system level of mining rigs. “The energy required is the same… but the number of quality hashes… is higher,” he said, referring to their lab-tested 10% improvement in mining efficiency.

This advancement significantly reduces the time-to-market from 18 months to just a few weeks, enabling miners to implement upgrades much faster than traditional ASIC-based improvements. Gardin noted that their method increases "quality hashing" — a performance measure based on hash difficulty rather than speed alone.

He added that all major ASIC manufacturers they've approached are receptive to testing the Oracle directly on their own machines, as QBT is not prepared to disclose proprietary details. Testing is currently being performed on legacy S9 miners as a proof of concept, and Gardin is in Dallas attending the Mining Disrupt conference to advance commercial discussions.

With implementation timelines of 4–6 weeks once a machine is received, Gardin highlighted that companies lagging behind market leader Bitmain view Oracle as a potential opportunity to close the competitive gap.

      <itunes:summary>Quantum Blockchain Technologies PLC (AIM:QBT) CEO Francesco Gardin talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company&apos;s latest breakthrough — a software-only version of Method C AI Oracle, which enhances Bitcoin mining efficiency without requiring hardware changes.

Gardin explained that this new version allows the integration of Oracle at the operating system level of mining rigs. “The energy required is the same… but the number of quality hashes… is higher,” he said, referring to their lab-tested 10% improvement in mining efficiency.

This advancement significantly reduces the time-to-market from 18 months to just a few weeks, enabling miners to implement upgrades much faster than traditional ASIC-based improvements. Gardin noted that their method increases &quot;quality hashing&quot; — a performance measure based on hash difficulty rather than speed alone.

He added that all major ASIC manufacturers they&apos;ve approached are receptive to testing the Oracle directly on their own machines, as QBT is not prepared to disclose proprietary details. Testing is currently being performed on legacy S9 miners as a proof of concept, and Gardin is in Dallas attending the Mining Disrupt conference to advance commercial discussions.

With implementation timelines of 4–6 weeks once a machine is received, Gardin highlighted that companies lagging behind market leader Bitmain view Oracle as a potential opportunity to close the competitive gap.

      <title>Pinnacle Silver and Gold extends 500m mineralized zone at El Potrero with new La Dura mine sampling</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Pinnacle Silver and Gold CEO Robert Archer joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share results from new sampling at the historic La Dura mine within the company’s high-grade El Potrero gold-silver project in Durango, Mexico.

Archer said the identification of another gold-silver zone at La Dura has extended the mineralized strike length along the Dos de Mayo vein structure to nearly 500 metres, significantly expanding the project’s potential. The newly defined zone remains open, with large gaps between the three principal mines—Pinos Cuates, Dos de Mayo, and La Dura—which have yet to be drill tested. Notably, the Dos de Mayo vein has never been previously drilled, marking a key exploration opportunity.

The La Dura mine consists of a main adit following the vein for roughly 60 metres along strike northwest of the portal, plus two smaller adits about 10 metres above and to the southeast, collectively referred to as La Dura 2. Compared to the more developed Pinos Cuates and Dos de Mayo mines, La Dura has seen limited underground work, with 146 of 722 total underground samples on the project taken there.

Of those, 40 samples were collected from the two small adits, including six composite channel samples along an exposed 12-metre strike length. Results returned an average width of 1.3 metres and average grades of 1.98 g/t gold and 98 g/t silver, with individual samples up to 4.51 g/t gold and 269 g/t silver over 0.5 metres. Very fine visible gold was observed in several locations.

Archer noted that given only 12 metres of the mineralized zone is currently exposed, there is strong potential for expansion through further underground development and future drilling. He added that these preliminary grades at La Dura 2 are consistent with other low-sulphidation epithermal systems in Mexico and reinforce the high-grade nature of the El Potrero project.

      <title>Medicus Pharma gains U.K. approval to expand trial of Doxorubicin Microneedle for skin cancer</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Medicus Pharma CEO Dr Raza Bokhari joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that the company has received full regulatory and ethical approvals in the United Kingdom to expand its ongoing Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating its Doxorubicin Microneedle Array technology for the non-invasive treatment of basal cell carcinoma of the skin.

The study, known as SKNJCT-003, is already underway across nine clinical sites in the United States and will now broaden to include additional sites in the U.K., following this latest approval milestone.
Dr. Bokhari explained that approvals were issued by the Medicines and Healthcare products Regulatory Agency , the Health Research Authority (HRA), and the Wales Research Ethics Committee. 

The MHRA’s authorization came after a comprehensive scientific review of the Investigational Medicinal Product Dossier and clinical protocol, while WREC issued a favorable ethical opinion. The HRA subsequently granted study-wide governance approval, confirming full compliance with U.K. Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and National Health Service (NHS) capacity and capability standards.

The Phase 2 trial is designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multi-center study enrolling up to 90 patients with BCC. It aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of two dose levels of D-MNA compared to a placebo control. Participants will be randomized into three groups in a 1:1:1 ratio, a placebo-controlled group, a low-dose group, and a high-dose group.

Dr. Bokhari highlighted that the 200 μg high-dose level represents the maximum dose previously tested in Medicus Pharma’s Phase 1 safety and tolerability study, which was successfully completed in March 2021.
The company views the U.K. expansion as a significant step toward advancing its novel microneedle drug delivery platform and potentially transforming the treatment landscape for non-melanoma skin cancers through a minimally invasive, localized therapy that may reduce the need for surgery and improve patient outcomes.

      <title>First Phosphate supports investment in second Port Saguenay Wharf to strengthen Quebec supply chain</title>
      <description><![CDATA[First Phosphate Corp. CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share that the company is welcoming the Government of Canada’s $57.6 million investment to construct a second wharf at the Port of Saguenay, Quebec.

The new wharf will be located directly adjacent to First Phosphate’s planned phosphoric acid plant, a strategic placement that will enhance the company’s export logistics and support the efficient transportation of future phosphate concentrate, phosphoric acid, and lithium iron phosphate (LFP) products to markets across North America, Europe, and beyond.

Passalacqua noted that the announcement underscores the federal government’s commitment to advancing Canada’s critical minerals infrastructure and coincides with the recent visit by Tim Hodgson, Canada’s Minister of Energy and Natural Resources, to Port Saguenay.

The CEO also highlighted that First Phosphate has recently finalized an industrial land option agreement with Port Saguenay, securing the site for the company’s planned phosphoric acid plant. The facility will utilize advanced clean technology licensed from Prayon SA of Belgium and will be engineered and implemented by Ballestra S.p.A. of Italy, both leaders in global chemical process design and execution.

This milestone also follows significant policy developments in the U.S., where the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, acting through the U.S. Geological Survey, has added phosphate to the Final 2025 List of Critical Minerals. The decision—based on recommendations from the Departments of Energy, Defense, and Agriculture—aligns the United States with Canada, South Korea, the European Union, and the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, all of which have formally recognized phosphate as an essential mineral for energy transition and food security.
Passalacqua said this alignment between Canadian and U.S. policy frameworks reinforces First Phosphate’s position as a key contributor to the North American LFP battery materials supply chain and supports the company’s goal of building a fully integrated, clean, and secure phosphate production ecosystem in Quebec.

This milestone also follows significant policy developments in the U.S., where the U.S. Secretary of the Interior, acting through the U.S. Geological Survey, has added phosphate to the Final 2025 List of Critical Minerals. The decision—based on recommendations from the Departments of Energy, Defense, and Agriculture—aligns the United States with Canada, South Korea, the European Union, and the provinces of Ontario and Quebec, all of which have formally recognized phosphate as an essential mineral for energy transition and food security.
Passalacqua said this alignment between Canadian and U.S. policy frameworks reinforces First Phosphate’s position as a key contributor to the North American LFP battery materials supply chain and supports the company’s goal of building a fully integrated, clean, and secure phosphate production ecosystem in Quebec.

      <title>Tertiary Minerals MD on &apos;fantastic&apos; copper results from Mushima North; next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Tertiary Minerals PLC (AIM:TYM, OTC:TTIRF) managing director Richard Belcher talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest phase of drilling at the Mushima North Project, where the company has recorded encouraging early copper and silver results from Target A1. Belcher said the team managed to complete four holes before heavier-than-expected rains halted the ten-hole programme, but he emphasised that “these are fantastic results for us,” highlighting an interval of 95m at 0.41% copper from just 10m below surface.

Tertiary said the portable XRF readings delivered the strongest copper values the company has seen from the project so far, with visible copper mineralisation observed throughout the drill chips. Laboratory assays, which will include silver results, are now pending. Belcher explained that the early findings support previous drilling and expand the known mineralised footprint, which already measures 450m by 400m.

Belcher also discussed the company’s decision to accelerate work on a JORC exploration target during the rainy season. He said this will provide a useful range of tonnes and grades and will guide the next steps as the company progresses toward its goal of defining a maiden resource in 2026.

Looking ahead, Tertiary expects assay results, further mineralogical studies, and discussions around potential joint ventures across the wider Zambian portfolio to form the key milestones through late 2025 and into 2026.

      <title>Graphene Manufacturing Group CEO says Beijer Ref collaboration is a big milestone for its coatings</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Graphene Manufacturing Group Ltd (TSX-V:GMG, OTCQX:GMGMF) managing director and CEO Craig Nicol talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest milestone — a commercial collaboration with global HVAC distributor Beijer Ref.

Nicol said the agreement marks a key step in deploying GMG’s graphene-based coating technology across the heating, ventilation, air conditioning, and refrigeration (HVAC-R) sector. Starting mid-November, Beijer Ref customers in Australia will be able to opt for the coating on condenser and evaporator coolers.

"This is a big time milestone for the company for actually graphene coating and also for the air conditioning industry," Nicol noted.

The rollout will cover Beijer Ref’s 73 Australian locations. Nicol said the partnership offers customers energy efficiency benefits and a five-year warranty when applied by certified contractors. He added that GMG's Spray Academy, now running both in-person and online training, is crucial to ensuring consistent application standards.

Nicol also outlined how GMG’s coating fits into broader energy efficiency goals. With 24% of Australia’s electricity usage linked to air conditioning, and grid strain during peak heat driven by inefficient units, GMG’s solution targets significant reductions in power demand.

Over time, GMG hopes to expand the rollout to additional countries and partners.

      <title>ACG Metals unlocks $300m from waste processing; raises $15m in oversubcribed placing</title>
      <description><![CDATA[ACG Metals Ltd (LSE:ACG, OTC:ACGAF) chairman and CEO Artem Volynets talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the release of a scoping study that showed how the company can generate up to $300 million in free cash flow from high-grade waste at its Gediktepe project using a SART (Sulphidisation, Acidification, Recycling, and Thickening) plant. 

“It’s very simple. You process waste,” he said. “With a little bit of investment… we add very significant cash flow and NAV because we do not have mining cost — this stuff has already been mined out.”

The news followed the company’s oversubscribed $15 million capital raise and the strong market response to its Enriched Ore Treatment Project. Volynets noted that the project requires minimal capital expenditure — $39 million across two phases — and could add $200 million in net asset value, a 60% uplift. The technology is described as low-risk and already proven in Turkey, and the company is targeting first cash flows by the end of next year.

Looking ahead, Volynets said a key milestone will be achieving commercial production of copper and zinc concentrates from the sulphide layer by mid-next year, while also continuing M&A activity.

      <title>Giyani Metals&apos; dual product plan for battery market</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Giyani Metals Corp (TSX-V:EMM, OTC:CATPF) chief development officer Sean Thijsse talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's recent milestone in producing high-purity manganese sulfate monohydrate (HPMSM) at its demonstration plant in Johannesburg.

Thijsse described this achievement as a “big leap forward” in the commercialization of its manganese project, adding that “our potential offtake partners have been waiting for” this product. The demo plant also delivered key technical insights that will help optimize the full-scale design for the definitive feasibility study (DFS), expected by the end of Q1 2026.

He highlighted that the company has successfully completed Phase 1 of a three-phase qualification program with US battery tech firm Charge CCCV (C4V). The initial testing showed that Giyani’s HPMSM product delivered performance “remarkably consistent” with C4V’s baseline cathode material.

The company is now progressing to more advanced phases of cell testing over the coming months. Alongside this, Giyani is also supplying material to multiple offtake partners and is seeing positive feedback.

Thijsse also discussed the strategic benefit of offering both HPMSM and HPMO (high-purity manganese oxide), which allows flexibility across different battery chemistries. Over the next 6–12 months, investors can expect updates on the DFS, offtake agreements, project finance, and early infrastructure work in Botswana.

      <title>Crypto ETP demand defies market drop – Fineqia&apos;s Matteo Greco provides insights</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Fineqia International Inc (CSE:FNQ) senior associate Matteo Greco talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about how institutional demand for regulated crypto investment products is holding steady, even amid broader market volatility.

Greco noted that although the overall crypto market value declined by 5.5% in October, crypto ETP assets only dipped by 2.5%, highlighting a shift in appetite among traditional finance players. “The demand for crypto ETP products still remains somewhat stronger compared to the underlying itself,” he said.

Bitcoin ETPs, in particular, have held their ground and now account for around 7% of total Bitcoin supply. According to Greco, the approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the U.S. in early 2024 opened access for larger capital bases, significantly boosting institutional involvement. He also mentioned treasury plays and unlisted funds as additional vehicles contributing to institutional holdings.

On Ethereum, Greco explained that its ETP assets saw nearly 90% growth this year, as investors seek to diversify after gains in Bitcoin. “There’s been a rotation and a higher demand on Ethereum,” he said, underscoring Ethereum’s rising credibility in traditional finance.

He also addressed the recent trend of investors shifting from altcoin-specific products toward basket ETPs that include Bitcoin and Ethereum, citing geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainties as driving a "flight to quality."

      <title>EnWave signs two new royalty-bearing licenses expanding reach in New Zealand and U.S. snack market</title>
      <description><![CDATA[EnWave Corporation CEO Brent Charleton joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the signing of two new royalty-bearing commercial license agreements, marking another step forward in the company’s ongoing expansion into international markets and diversified applications of its proprietary Radiant Energy Vacuum dehydration technology.

Charleton shared that the first agreement was signed with Shinyway International Limited, a cannabis processing service provider based in Christchurch, New Zealand. Under the terms of the commercial license, Shinyway has been granted the rights to use EnWave’s patented REV™ technology to produce premium cannabis products in New Zealand. Shinyway will pay royalties consistent with similar existing EnWave licenses, and both companies will collaborate closely to optimize product development and process performance.

In addition to the Shinyway agreement, Charleton announced a second royalty-bearing commercial license with a U.S.-based snack company developing an innovative line of ultra-healthy, fruit- and vegetable-based snack products. The Licensee has received legal confirmation allowing it to claim its product as the “healthiest salty snack ever produced.”

EnWave has worked in close partnership with the Licensee for several months to refine and perfect the dehydration process for its proprietary formulations. Following these successful trials, the Licensee has purchased a 10kW Radiant Energy Vacuum machine for initial commercial production. Installation is scheduled at a large third-party contract manufacturer in Mexico before the end of 2025.

The Licensee intends to launch its first REV™-dried products in Mexico in early 2026, with expansion into the U.S. market planned for 2027.

      <title>Standard Uranium sets 2026 exploration plans after successful 2025 season in Athabasca Basin</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Standard Uranium Vice President of Exploration Sean Hillacre joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share details of the company’s upcoming 2026 exploration programs and to summarize key milestones achieved across its 2025 activities in the Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan.

Hillacre said the company’s 2026 plans will include high-resolution geophysical surveys and targeted diamond drilling across multiple uranium projects, highlighted by the fully drill-ready Davidson River property and partner-funded exploration at the Corvo and Rocas projects. Drilling campaigns are scheduled throughout the year as Standard Uranium continues to advance its extensive portfolio across the Basin.

At the Davidson River project—Standard Uranium’s flagship asset—new high-priority target areas have been delineated along the Warrior, Bronco, and Thunderbird conductor corridors through the first-ever Exosphere Multiphysics survey completed in the southwestern Athabasca. With all required drill permits secured and Exploration Agreements signed with the Clearwater River Dene Nation, the company plans to commence an 8,000-metre drill program in early spring 2026.

At the Corvo project, a ground gravity survey spanning more than 29 kilometres of conductive strike is set for December 2025. A 3,000-metre winter 2026 diamond drill program will follow—marking the first drilling on the property in over 40 years—with targets including the Manhattan Showing and newly identified radioactive zones.

Meanwhile, at the Rocas project, following a 2024 gravity survey and interpretation work by Convolutions Geoscience, a 1,800-metre drill program is planned for winter 2026 to test high-priority anomalies along a 7.5-kilometre magnetic low and EM conductive corridor that hosts multiple uranium showings.

In addition, Standard Uranium will continue advancing its Sun Dog project through 3D modeling and inversion of EM and gravity data collected in 2024 and 2025. These efforts will refine targets ahead of a future partner-funded drill campaign.

Hillacre said the company’s exploration strategy remains focused on disciplined, data-driven target generation and partnership-supported programs aimed at unlocking new uranium discoveries across Canada’s premier uranium district.

      <title>Sterling Digital eyes AQSE listing as it fuels off-grid Bitcoin mining assets with stranded gas</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Sterling Digital Plc CEO Stefan Michaelides joined Stephen Gunnion in Proactive's studio with more on the company’s unique approach to off-grid Bitcoin mining and its upcoming listing on the Aquis Growth Market. 

Sterling Digital is distinguishing itself from traditional miners by utilising stranded natural gas from oil fields, primarily in the United States, to power its operations. According to Michaelides, this model provides a cost advantage and addresses an environmental challenge by capturing methane-rich gas that would otherwise be vented or flared.

He explained, “We’re not only solving an environmental issue, but creating a valuable asset at the same time.” The company sources the gas at prices under one dollar per MCF, which translates to approximately half a cent per kilowatt-hour—significantly lower than grid-based energy costs.

Michaelides also discussed the scalability of Sterling Digital’s operations, noting that a series of assets are already lined up, setting a clear path for the next 12 to 18 months. While future international expansion is being considered, the focus remains firmly in the United States for now.

Sterling Digital plans to hold its mined Bitcoin as part of a treasury policy, potentially lending to liquidity providers to earn yield. The company's ticker on the Aquis exchange will be ASIC.

      <itunes:subtitle>Sterling Digital Plc CEO Stefan Michaelides joined Stephen Gunnion in Proactive&apos;s studio with more on the company’s unique approach to off-grid Bitcoin mining and its upcoming listing on the Aquis Growth Market. 

Sterling Digital is distinguishing itself from traditional miners by utilising stranded natural gas from oil fields, primarily in the United States, to power its operations. According to Michaelides, this model provides a cost advantage and addresses an environmental challenge by capturing methane-rich gas that would otherwise be vented or flared.

He explained, “We’re not only solving an environmental issue, but creating a valuable asset at the same time.” The company sources the gas at prices under one dollar per MCF, which translates to approximately half a cent per kilowatt-hour—significantly lower than grid-based energy costs.

Michaelides also discussed the scalability of Sterling Digital’s operations, noting that a series of assets are already lined up, setting a clear path for the next 12 to 18 months. While future international expansion is being considered, the focus remains firmly in the United States for now.

      <title>Delivra Health CEO on strong Q1 sales growth, sustainable momentum</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Delivra Health Brands Inc. (TSX-V:DHB, OTCQB:DHBUF) CEO Gord Davey talked with Proactive about the company’s latest quarterly performance, highlighting strong growth across its Dream Water and LivRelief product lines. He noted that revenue momentum is being driven by both digital and retail channels, with over 1,000 new stores added to the company’s retail footprint in the last quarter.

Davey pointed to expanding innovation as a key contributor, citing the introduction of new Dream Water SKUs, including Dream Water Gummies, Immunity, and Beauty products. On LivRelief, pricing strategy has helped increase both revenue and unit volumes.

E-commerce is also becoming a more dominant channel. “We’re really driving strong, strong drivers in our e-commerce business,” said Davey, as Dream Water online sales rose by 74% and LivRelief by 16%. The company plans to capitalise on seasonal peaks such as Black Friday and other retail events.

Looking ahead, Davey addressed a temporary dip in infused product sales due to a distribution transition, but noted a relaunch is expected in early 2026. The company also posted adjusted EBITDA of $56,000, with Davey expressing confidence in continued profitability and cash flow.

      <description><![CDATA[Seeing Machines Ltd's (AIM:SEE, OTC:SEEMF) CEO Paul McGlone and CFO Martin Ive talked with Proactive about the company’s latest KPI update, automotive momentum and a new US aftermarket deal.

McGlone said that while aftermarket volumes saw some Q1 slippage, it was due to contract complexity and timing, noting, “We’re actually very confident that we will get to where we want to be by the end of this year.”

A key focus of the interview was the company’s new aftermarket customer in the US, with an initial order of 1,100 Guardian units. “Our technology was proven through trial in a competitive environment,” McGlone explained, adding that full deployment potential with this fleet could reach the high tens of thousands of units.

In automotive, McGlone reported growing royalty volumes and reaffirmed confidence in volume growth as the EU’s General Safety Regulation (GSR) deadline of July 2026 approaches.

The CFO confirmed the company remains on track to hit its cash flow breakeven run rate by the end of 2025. Ive outlined operational targets, including 750,000 units in auto royalties and 6,000 Guardian unit sales in Q2, stating: “We expect to achieve that number of Guardian sales.”

      <title>Greencoat UK Wind warns on RO reform impact; updates on capital plans</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Greencoat UK Wind PLC (LSE:UKW) co-head Stephen Packwood talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the UK government's proposed changes to inflation indexation under the Renewables Obligation (RO) and Feed-in Tariff schemes, and their potential impact on investor sentiment and consumer bills.

Packwood said the government is considering switching the indexation from RPI to CPI, including the possibility of applying CPI retrospectively, which would effectively fix current RO levels for the next 9 to 10 years. He noted, “Retrospective changes such that this typically lead to an increase in the cost of capital.”

He warned that these changes could raise electricity costs and harm consumers, especially as energy demand increases due to the electrification of heating, data centres, and electric vehicles.

As an alternative, Packwood pointed to a voluntary Contract for Difference scheme, allowing generators to agree to fixed prices below wholesale levels, which could save around £30 annually per household. He said this would be “relatively fast and relatively simple” to implement.

He also discussed the company's capital allocation strategy, highlighting £220 million in disposals and nearly £200 million in share buybacks, along with debt repayments of over £100 million.

      <title>hVIVO’s Andrew Catchpole on HMPV &amp; RSV research</title>
      <description><![CDATA[hVIVO PLC (AIM:HVO) chief scientific officer Andrew Catchpole talked with Proactive about the company’s latest developments in human challenge models across multiple viral pathogens.

Catchpole explained that hVIVO presented new data at the European Scientific Working Group on Influenza (ESWI) and the World Vaccine Congress, highlighting the role of challenge models in expediting vaccine and antiviral development. “Challenge models give a really good opportunity to get fast proof of concept data very, very quickly,” he said.

He detailed progress on several new models, including those for RSV B, HMPV, and Omicron. The HMPV model addresses a critical unmet medical need, as there are currently no approved treatments or vaccines. Catchpole said the model supports fast-tracked development of interventions for at-risk populations such as infants and the elderly.

The finalised Omicron challenge model reflects real-world conditions, targeting vaccinated or previously exposed individuals. This enables the evaluation of next-generation or pan-coronavirus vaccines.

Catchpole also outlined how the RSV B model complements existing RSV A research, particularly for assessing combination vaccines across both strains. These models can serve both early-stage proof of concept and as supplementary data to traditional phase 2 or 3 studies.

Looking ahead, hVIVO is expanding into respiratory conditions like asthma and COPD, and through its acquisition of CRS, is moving into cardiometabolic and renal disease models. The company is also extending its lab capabilities with next-generation sequencing and digital PCR tools.

      <title>HIVE Digital mines record 289 Bitcoin in October as it scales to 24 Exahash</title>
      <description><![CDATA[HIVE Digital Technologies Ltd chief financial officer Darcy Daubaras talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's latest performance and strategic direction, highlighting the strength of its dual-engine model.

The company produced a record 289 Bitcoin in October, up significantly year-over-year, with Daubaras noting that HIVE now operates at 24 Exahash capacity, with 25 installed. He said this scale is providing strong cash flow, enabling further investment into its growing high-performance computing (HPC) segment.

"We've got this incredible 24 Exahash of Bitcoin mining capacity, which is pushing off cash from those operations. And we're using that cash to build up our high performance computing data centers," said Daubaras.

He explained that the company is leveraging low-cost, hydroelectric power in Paraguay, which supports its green energy goals. At the same time, Bitcoin revenues are helping to fund a phased build-out of Tier 3 HPC data centers across Montreal, Sweden, Toronto, and New Brunswick.

The interview also covered operational efficiency, with HIVE maintaining over 2% of the global Bitcoin network at 17.5 joules per terahash. Daubaras emphasized a focus on continuous miner upgrades and proactive efficiency management.

The company’s strategy remains focused on sustainability, low leverage, and building out infrastructure using internally generated cash flow, rather than excessive debt. He also noted growing demand in Canada for sovereign data infrastructure, driven by institutional and government-backed customers.

      <title>American Resources strengthens role in global critical metals with Uzbekistan tungsten partnership</title>
      <description><![CDATA[American Resources Corp (NASDAQ:AREC) CEO Mark Jensen talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s new partnership with Uzbekistan's TMK LLC to advance the supply and refinement of tungsten and potentially other critical minerals.

Jensen said the agreement further establishes the company’s growing role in the global critical minerals supply chain, underpinned by its modular and scalable refining facilities developed through its ReElement division. “Tungsten is an element and a product that's desperately needed,” he explained, citing its role in shipbuilding and national defense applications.

The CEO noted that the company’s strategic relationship with the US government and other international stakeholders continues to grow. He emphasized that American Resources is taking ownership stakes in feedstock sources, with more developments expected to be announced soon.

Jensen also detailed how ReElement’s unique flow sheet development technology positions it to refine a range of elements, including germanium, gallium, rare earth elements, and now tungsten. The Marion, Indiana, facility serves as a hub for this expanding capability, which the company aims to deploy globally.

He added that a joint working group has been set up to assess feasibility and funding structure, with tungsten development following a similar path to other products like antimony and germanium.

      <title>Nextech3D.ai CEO buys more shares to take advantage of strong growth outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Nextech3D.AI (CSE:NTAR, OTCQX:NEXCF) CEO Evan Gappelberg talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s recent momentum across AI, 3D modelling, event tech, and spatial computing, as he increased his stake in the company through share purchases.

Gappelberg highlighted how AI innovation has sharply reduced 3D model production costs—from $50 to under $5 in some cases—unlocking opportunities for high-volume, low-cost client needs. “Our AI breakthroughs have slashed our 3D modeling costs,” he said, pointing to ongoing improvements that support future scalability.

He also detailed growth in the company’s events division, where expanded offerings now include blockchain ticketing, on-site badging, and AI matchmaking. This shift has pushed average ticket values from $2,500 to between $15,000 and $50,000, with Gappelberg noting, “We’re landing deals on almost a daily basis.”

The CEO cited personal conviction in the company’s outlook, underlined by his recent open-market share purchase. “I want to own more of it,” he said, believing current market valuations don’t reflect Nextech3D.ai’s progress and potential. His ownership now stands at approximately 29 million shares.

Looking ahead to 2026, Gappelberg identified multiple growth drivers, including the maturing 3D modelling market, event tech demand, and the expected impact of spatial computing as new AR glasses from Meta enter the market.

He concluded that Nextech3D.ai is positioned for sequential quarterly revenue growth starting in 2026, with both infrastructure and product offerings now in place to support long-term expansion.

      <title>Buccaneer Energy CEO on Allar #1 well results and next steps</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Buccaneer Energy Plc (AIM:BUCE) CEO Paul Welch talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the results from the Allar #1 well and the company’s forward strategy. Although the well did not encounter commercial hydrocarbons, Welch explained that it yielded valuable subsurface data that confirms the positioning of a key bounding fault.

Welch said, “As we got closer to that fault, the sand thinned and became shale-ier. And so there just wasn't special amount of hydrocarbons here to complete the well in this location.” Despite the outcome, he noted the findings were instrumental in refining the placement for future wells.

He also discussed the upcoming Fouke #4 well, which is expected to replicate the performance of Fouke #1 and #2, potentially delivering 124 barrels per day at field allowable rates, with a net of 40 barrels per day to Buccaneer. At current prices, that equates to approximately $55,000 per month in net cash flow.
Operational constraints mean a sidetrack from Allar #1 would require partner approval, but Welch remains optimistic about reaching a productive zone slightly west of the original bore.

Turning to current production, Welch said the Pine Mills field is generating steady cash flow with low operating costs. He highlighted the potential to double output from Fouke #2 once a gas gathering system is installed to reduce backpressure.

      <title>Rainbow Rare Earths CEO says addition of yttrium boosts Phalaborwa&apos;s economic value</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Rainbow Rare Earths Ltd (LSE:RBW, OTC:RBWRF) CEO George Bennett talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest resource update at its Phalaborwa project, which now includes yttrium — a rare earth element recently added to China’s export control list.

Bennett noted that yttrium, alongside samarium and gadolinium, is considered a critical mineral by the US government due to its importance in defence and strategic technologies. The inclusion of yttrium in the Phalaborwa model enhances the value proposition of the project, with Bennett stating: “We’re getting very, very good payability levels quoted to us, higher than what we originally had in our feasibility study.”

This update not only improves the financial projections for Phalaborwa but also supports Rainbow’s broader strategy of supplying medium and heavy rare earths outside of China. Bennett shared that there is “heightened interest in offtake for the SEG+ group”, coming from global OEMs and strategic partners in regions including South Korea, Japan, North America, and Europe.

With similar SEG+ profiles expected from its Brazilian project at Uberaba, Rainbow positions itself as a potentially significant contributor to secure global rare earth supply chains.

      <title>Caledonia Mining CEO on strong Q3 financials due to gold price and production gains</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Caledonia Mining Corporation PLC (AIM:CMCL, NYSE-A:CMCL, VFEX:CMCL) CEO Mark Learmonth talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s financial and operational highlights for the third quarter of 2025.

Caledonia Mining reported a strong financial performance, with profit after tax rising to $18.7 million, up significantly from $3.3 million in the same quarter last year. Learmonth said this solid result was driven by strong production and a favourable gold price. The company produced just over 19,000 ounces of gold and sold around 20,000 ounces, with revenue exceeding $70 million, a more than 50% increase.

EBITDA rose to $33.5 million for the quarter, and for the nine months of 2025, the company has now generated just under $100 million in EBITDA. 

On cost management, Learmonth discussed the changes in Blanket mine’s structure since the commissioning of the central shaft, noting the increased depth and tonnage being hoisted. He outlined several cost-control measures, including reducing diesel use, better electricity monitoring, and improving worker efficiency through new clocking systems.

The interview also covered updates on Bilboes, where an announcement is expected imminently, and on exploration progress at Motapa. Learmonth also highlighted the appointment of July Ndlovu as a non-executive director, citing his valuable project experience.

      <title>Abacus Global Management CEO on strong Q3 growth, maiden dividend, and bullish outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Abacus Global Management (NASDAQ:ABL) CEO Jay Jackson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's tenth consecutive quarter of earnings and the continued momentum into 2026.

Abacus posted a 124% year-over-year increase in third-quarter revenue, along with 60% growth in adjusted net income. Jackson said that six of the last ten quarters have delivered earnings beats above 30%, highlighting this as part of a long-term trend, not a one-off result.

A key contributor to this performance has been Abacus’ ability to actively manage and resell contracts at high margins—recently reporting a margin of nearly 37%. The company has also raised over $500 million in new capital this year, driven by institutional demand for uncorrelated yield.

Abacus also announced its first-ever dividend, representing a little over 20% of adjusted net income, and noted that 15% of its revenue is now recurring. “We're growing year over year... but we're also being great stewards of capital,” said Jackson.

Recent strategic moves include the acquisition of AccuQuote and digital origination capabilities, aimed at expanding lifecycle coverage and origination sources. Jackson also discussed a $50 million securitization deal, which he described as the start of a scalable funding platform.

      <title>First Phosphate CEO says strategic $2M capital raise supports 30,000-meter drill program</title>
      <description><![CDATA[First Phosphate Corp. (CSE:PHOS, OTCQX:FRSPF) CEO John Passalacqua talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about a strategic capital raise aimed at accelerating exploration and development at the company's phosphate resource. Passalacqua confirmed that an existing investor is stepping in to "top up" their position, with potential participation from other shareholders.

The additional capital will help fund a 30,000-meter drill program designed to support a block model and ultimately a feasibility study, which is expected by mid-2026. “Basically, these funds will help us… finish off the drilling so that we can build a block model for the resource,” Passalacqua explained.

He also highlighted the company's broader ambition to support a fully integrated North American LFP (lithium iron phosphate) battery supply chain using domestic critical minerals. Notably, First Phosphate has already produced batteries using phosphate from its property, marking a key validation step. The company aims to start production by 2029.

Passalacqua emphasized the strategic importance of domestic supply, particularly in light of China’s recent threats to cut off supplies of rare earths and tech components. He added that First Phosphate holds a “really pure igneous phosphate resource” which enhances its competitive position.

The company is currently well-capitalized with between $18 to $19 million in the bank and expects this latest raise to extend its runway through 2026.

      <description><![CDATA[GoviEx Uranium Inc (TSX-V: GXU, OTCQB: GVXXF) CEO Daniel Major spoke with Proactive’s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s future following the Supreme Court of British Columbia’s approval of its arrangement with Tombador Iron.

Major described the transaction as “transformational” for GoviEx, built around four key pillars: improved access to capital, enhanced technical expertise, a refreshed leadership team, and a streamlined share structure.

He noted that the company’s upcoming ASX listing, under the new name Atomic Eagle, will place it alongside peers such as Deep Yellow and Bannerman, giving it exposure to a market that understands African uranium projects.

The new entity will start with A$10.5 million in cash from Tombador and an additional A$10 million raised through the transaction—funds that will support continued exploration and development of GoviEx’s Muntanga Project in Zambia.

Major also highlighted the importance of Matador Capital becoming a significant shareholder group, bringing a track record of success from projects including Boss and Lotus. “We needed to complement our existing strengths—and this partnership achieves exactly that,” he said.

The deal received overwhelming shareholder support, with 99% voting in favour. For investors, no action is required during the transition.

      <title>Immunic CEO talks BIO-Europe 2025, MS trials, and IMU-856</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Immunic Inc (NASDAQ:IMUX) CEO Dr Daniel Vitt talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s strong presence at BIO-Europe 2025 and the growing momentum behind its late-stage clinical programs. The conversation centred on the progress of its lead asset vidofludimus calcium, particularly its ongoing ENSURE Phase 3 trials for relapsing multiple sclerosis, which are fully enrolled and expected to report data at the end of 2026.

Vitt described the Vienna-based conference as “a very exciting, active, energetic meeting” and highlighted its international scope. He noted that while Immunic is US-focused, BIO-Europe provided valuable networking opportunities within the European investor and biotech community.

Much of the investor and partner interest at the event was directed towards Immunic’s multiple sclerosis program. “It’s a unique growth story and has the ability to address here a multi-billion market opportunity,” said Vitt, referring to vidofludimus calcium, which he described as “a dual acting molecule” and “first in class Nurr-1 activator.”

In addition, Vitt pointed to continued progress in Immunic’s gastrointestinal program, IMU-856, which has shown promising early clinical data in celiac disease and GLP-1 upregulation. The company is exploring further development and potential partnerships for this asset.

      <title>Argentina Lithium &amp; Energy CEO on shift from exploration to development at Rincon West project</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Argentina Lithium & Energy Corp (TSX-V:LIT, OTCQX:LILIF) CEO Niko Cacos talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s shift from exploration to development at its Rincon West lithium project in Argentina.

Cacos highlighted that the company has already announced its maiden resource estimate, marking a significant milestone. He explained that Argentina Lithium is now focused on selecting a direct lithium extraction (DLE) partner, with pilot testing to follow. "We've examined a whole plethora of them, and now we've narrowed this choice down to just a very few," he said.

Work is also ongoing on environmental baseline studies and preliminary engineering. Cacos confirmed that financing discussions are underway to support the project through to the feasibility stage.

He expressed full confidence in the choice of DLE technology, noting its economic and environmental advantages, particularly given that neighbouring lithium operations - such as Rio Tinto's nearby $6 billion project - are using the same method.

Cacos also discussed the significance of the partnership with Stellantis, stating that the automotive company has been actively supporting Argentina Lithium’s progress and financing efforts. "They have a strong belief in the quality of the projects that we have," he said.

The company is targeting a preliminary economic assessment in early 2026, with key steps ahead being DLE selection and securing funding.

      <title>Alvopetro Energy CEO on record October sales volumes, Q3 performance and outlook</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Alvopetro Energy Ltd (TSX-V:ALV, OTC:ALVOF) CEO Corey Ruttan talked with Proactive about the company’s third-quarter production results, new well performance, and expansion plans across Brazil and Canada.

Ruttan highlighted that the company achieved an average production of 2,343 barrels of oil equivalent per day. October marked a record high of over 2,900 barrels of oil equivalent per day, driven by strong output from the 183-D4 well at the Murucututu project in Brazil.

Ruttan explained that the 183-D4 well, drilled higher on the structure, produced nearly 1,100 barrels of oil equivalent per day over its first 30 days, almost double pre-drill expectations. He said: "We completed the well using some leading-edge North American completion technologies that were brought to bear for the first time ever in Brazil."

This success supported an amendment to Alvopetro’s long-term gas sales agreement with Bahiagas, increasing delivery obligations and driving strong financial performance. The company continues to benefit from high realized natural gas prices, exceeding US$11 per MCF in Q3.

Ruttan also spoke about Alvopetro’s strategic entry into Canada’s Mannville Stack heavy oil play. He said the move complements the Brazilian operations, offering a low-cost, scalable development opportunity with over 74 square miles of prospective land and multi-lateral drilling potential.

Discussing capital allocation, Ruttan confirmed that Alvopetro aims to maintain a 50/50 balance between shareholder returns and reinvestment, with dividends supported by strong cash flow.

The transaction is set to give Europa access to a portfolio of producing and near-producing critical minerals projects across Africa, including copper, lithium, tantalum and manganese assets.

Campion described the deal as “transformative” and noted that the company had been actively seeking near-term cashflow opportunities. He highlighted the Kinusi copper mine in Tanzania, which is already in production and yielding high-grade direct shipping ore (DSO), with grades of 20-30% copper.

He also pointed to the Blesberg lithium-tantalum mine in South Africa, which holds a 250,000-tonne surface stockpile grading up to 6% lithium. A processing plant is already in place. Additionally, the Kilifi manganese asset in Kenya is expected to operate as both a processing hub and a producing asset.

Europa intends to return capital to shareholders following the recent $3.2 million sale of its Spanish asset. The AGM, scheduled before year-end, will define the initial capital distribution. Campion said: “So it is pretty transformative… We’ll come out the other side as a completely different company, with some very good cash flows coming through.”

Looking ahead, the company is preparing for due diligence, technical reports and regulatory steps to progress the RTO. It is also exploring a rare earths opportunity as part of the agreement with Marula.

      <title>Cindrigo IPOs on LSE: CEO discusses geothermal growth plans and clean energy future</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Cindrigo Holdings Ltd (LSE:CINH) CEO Lars Guldstrand talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's debut on the London Stock Exchange's Main Market and its strategy to grow within the European clean energy space.

Cindrigo’s core business is focused on delivering clean baseload energy, particularly through geothermal and waste-to-energy projects. Guldstrand explained that the company’s main assets are based in Finland and Germany, and said Cindrigo is now entering an important growth phase.

“We have today a very solid operating platform in Finland ready to go in operation and the projects in Germany,” Guldstrand stated. He said the London listing would support Cindrigo’s future expansion by boosting its credibility and ability to raise capital.

Guldstrand pointed to two key operational milestones over the next 12 to 18 months: the start-up of the waste-to-energy facility in Finland, and securing funding, followed by drilling for the geothermal project in Germany.

While the company’s primary strategy is focused on organic development, Guldstrand said partnerships could play a role, particularly with new projects.

He highlighted that the biggest risks include potential delays in the Finland plant start-up and unsatisfactory drilling results in Germany, although he noted the strong government support available.

Cindrigo is positioning itself to meet growing demand for baseload clean energy across Europe, with Guldstrand citing the company’s strong asset base, experienced team and board, and favourable market conditions.

      <title>Bluefield Solar investment manager James Armstrong on strategic sale process</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Bluefield Partners' managing partner James Armstrong talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the decision to initiate a strategic review and formal sale process for the Bluefield Solar Income Fund (LSE:BSIF).

Armstrong explained the move follows extended consultation with shareholders and stems from Bluefield Solar’s continued share price discount to net asset value (NAV), which has persisted for over three years. Despite the fund’s strong performance since its IPO, the board concluded that "doing nothing is not an option", citing the lack of a clear market catalyst for a re-rating.

He noted the aim is to assess how to best unlock shareholder value and improve liquidity through potential sale routes or other strategic alternatives. “It is about trying to work out how do we maximise shareholder value for the shareholders in what is a persistent, persistently difficult market,” Armstrong said.

He also outlined key attractions for potential buyers, including Bluefield’s high-quality UK operational portfolio, a large development pipeline, and the possibility of rolling in the wider Bluefield platform into any deal. This integrated offering, Armstrong explained, may appeal to capital sources beyond traditional asset buyers.

As the formal process progresses, Armstrong confirmed that financial advisers would lead market communications, with regular updates expected for shareholders.

      <title>Oriole Resources secures key BCM deal for Cameroon gold projects</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Oriole Resources PLC (AIM:ORR) CEO Martin Rosser talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest agreement with BCM International and its impact on gold exploration projects in Cameroon.

The agreement secures $900,000 in cash and a further $300,000 in direct drilling expenditure, providing full funding for a 2,950-metre maiden drilling program at the MB01-N target. Rosser said the deal was “a clear validation of our exploration strategy in Cameroon” and underlined BCM’s continued confidence in the Bibemi and Mbe projects.

Rosser described the partnership with BCM as one based on shared commitment and technical expertise, highlighting that BCM’s operational and financial support allows Oriole to progress drilling and metallurgical work without shareholder dilution.

The MB01-N program, expected to commence in December, aims to convert an exploration target of 370,000 to 605,000 ounces of gold into a maiden JORC-compliant resource. This follows a previously reported 870,000-ounce JORC Inferred resource at nearby MB01-S, which Rosser described as “a transformational step” for the company.

      <itunes:summary>Oriole Resources PLC (AIM:ORR) CEO Martin Rosser talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about the company’s latest agreement with BCM International and its impact on gold exploration projects in Cameroon.

The agreement secures $900,000 in cash and a further $300,000 in direct drilling expenditure, providing full funding for a 2,950-metre maiden drilling program at the MB01-N target. Rosser said the deal was “a clear validation of our exploration strategy in Cameroon” and underlined BCM’s continued confidence in the Bibemi and Mbe projects.

Rosser described the partnership with BCM as one based on shared commitment and technical expertise, highlighting that BCM’s operational and financial support allows Oriole to progress drilling and metallurgical work without shareholder dilution.

The MB01-N program, expected to commence in December, aims to convert an exploration target of 370,000 to 605,000 ounces of gold into a maiden JORC-compliant resource. This follows a previously reported 870,000-ounce JORC Inferred resource at nearby MB01-S, which Rosser described as “a transformational step” for the company.

Looking ahead, Oriole will continue preparatory work at MB01-N, conduct metallurgical testing at Bibemi, and advance its exploitation licence application in Cameroon.

      <title>Amazing AI’s bold move: Bitcoin treasury strategy with options leverages volatility</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Amazing AI Plc (AQSE:AAI) CEO and founder Paul Mathieson talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s unique approach to digital asset investment and its dual business model rooted in US consumer lending.

Mathieson explained that Amazing AI continues to operate a licensed lending business across six US states. The company has expanded its model by launching a digital asset treasury strategy that uses advanced options trading. Rather than directly purchasing Bitcoin, the company uses call and put options to gain leveraged exposure—up to 100 times—to a basket of digital assets including Ethereum, XRP, Solana and potentially gold-linked and AI-based tokens like Tal.

“We’re not just reliant on the performance of Bitcoin. We have a strategy that makes money if it goes down or up,” Mathieson said.

He described Amazing AI’s strategy as “Treasury 3.0”, which focuses on diversification and institutional-level trading mechanics, contrasting with other companies that simply buy and hold crypto. The company is also looking to acquire undervalued treasury businesses that can no longer meet new stock exchange rules, integrating those assets into its balanced model of lending and digital asset trading.

Mathieson added that Amazing AI would deploy capital over the next two months using a dollar-cost averaging approach to take advantage of current market conditions.

      <title>Arizona Gold &amp; Silver CEO discusses high-grade zone potential at Philadelphia project&apos;s Perry vein</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Arizona Gold & Silver Inc (TSX-V:AZS, OTCQB:AZASF) CEO Mike Stark talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the latest drill results at the company’s Philadelphia project.

The company intersected over 34 metres of the Perry vein in its latest drill hole, continuing to demonstrate strong continuity and potential for high-grade mineralisation. Stark said, “We have a very solid vein with what appears to be some very nice high grade, very much similar to 156.” He explained that while final assays from hole PC25-157 are still pending, early visual indicators such as colour and texture are promising.

The new results follow a previous intersection of 38 metres, and Stark noted the consistency between these recent holes is encouraging. Plans are now in place to continue drilling through holes PC25-158 and PC25-159 up to the end of the year.

Looking ahead, the company expects to receive a key permit in January that would allow them to drill down dip on hole 156. Stark said this could be significant, adding that geologist Greg Hahn believes the vein may extend at least another 1,000 feet.

This update signals a potentially expanding system, with Stark calling it “extremely exciting for shareholders.”

      <title>Animoca Brands eyes Nasdaq in reverse merger move with Currenc Group</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Animoca Brands Corporation Ltd CEO of Investments Robby Yung talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s proposed reverse merger with Currenc Group Inc. (Nasdaq:CURR), which would lead to a listing on the Nasdaq.

Yung explained the strategic reasoning behind the move, citing improving regulatory clarity in the United States as a major factor. “We see a huge opportunity to lean into that regulatory clarity and pursue a listing in the US,” he said, referencing developments like the Genius Act and clearer frameworks around stablecoins and tokenisation.

Animoca shareholders are expected to own around 95% of the combined company post-merger, and Yung noted this may unlock value for long-standing investors. He highlighted that US capital markets are deeper and more liquid, offering stronger access to capital compared to Australia.

Yung also spoke about Animoca’s large digital asset portfolio and its focus on real world asset (RWA) tokenisation. He mentioned joint ventures such as Nuva on the Providence blockchain and projects tied to home equity loans in the US, as well as partnerships with entities like Standard Chartered.

In addition, Yung highlighted upcoming growth areas including AI and Web3 gaming. He said, “Web3 is really the way to unlock some of that value,” referring to a potential resurgence in gaming tokenisation.

      <title>Magna Terra Mineral CEO on company&apos;s dual strategy for exploration growth</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Magna Terra Minerals (CVE:MTT) President and CEO Lew Lawrick talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about recent developments across the company’s project portfolio.

Lawrick detailed significant progress at the Humber Copper-Cobalt Project in Newfoundland, where surface sampling returned grades of up to 5% copper. The surface copper zone now extends over 2.2 kilometres, underpinned by a completed VTEM airborne survey revealing multiple conductive targets. “We've extended that surface copper zone now over two kilometres,” Lawrick said, describing it as a “very exciting” early-stage discovery.

Turning to New Brunswick, Rocky Brook has been the focus of data-driven exploration. Magna Terra used AI tools to process years of historic data, identifying high-priority VMS targets. Follow-up fieldwork, including geochemical sampling and trenching, is underway with results expected later in the year.

Lawrick also discussed the company’s partnership strategy. In Argentina, Luna Roja is being advanced by Andean Metals, while Great Northern in Canada is being developed by Gold Hunter. Magna Terra expects to receive almost $5 million in cash and securities from that option deal by mid-2026.

The company continues to review additional partnership opportunities, maintaining a tight capital structure while expanding project exposure.

      <itunes:summary>Magna Terra Minerals (CVE:MTT) President and CEO Lew Lawrick talked with Proactive&apos;s Stephen Gunnion about recent developments across the company’s project portfolio.

Lawrick detailed significant progress at the Humber Copper-Cobalt Project in Newfoundland, where surface sampling returned grades of up to 5% copper. The surface copper zone now extends over 2.2 kilometres, underpinned by a completed VTEM airborne survey revealing multiple conductive targets. “We&apos;ve extended that surface copper zone now over two kilometres,” Lawrick said, describing it as a “very exciting” early-stage discovery.

Turning to New Brunswick, Rocky Brook has been the focus of data-driven exploration. Magna Terra used AI tools to process years of historic data, identifying high-priority VMS targets. Follow-up fieldwork, including geochemical sampling and trenching, is underway with results expected later in the year.

Lawrick also discussed the company’s partnership strategy. In Argentina, Luna Roja is being advanced by Andean Metals, while Great Northern in Canada is being developed by Gold Hunter. Magna Terra expects to receive almost $5 million in cash and securities from that option deal by mid-2026.

The company continues to review additional partnership opportunities, maintaining a tight capital structure while expanding project exposure.

      <title>The Vaccine Group unveils cattle vaccine trial success</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Jeremy Salt, CEO of The Vaccine Group (TVG), a Frontier IP Group PLC (AIM:FIPP) portfolio company, talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company's recent vaccine trial results targeting Bovine Respiratory Syncytial Virus (BRSV).

Salt highlighted that BRSV is a major cause of bovine respiratory disease, responsible for annual losses of approximately £54 million in the UK alone, and nearly £6 billion globally. "This is a critical disease," Salt said, referencing data from the Pirbright Institute.

The trials, conducted with the Animal and Plant Health Agency in the UK, involved vaccinating calves and subsequently exposing them to high levels of the virus under controlled conditions. The study assessed clinical outcomes, virus shedding, and lung pathology, using a well-recognised industry model.

Salt emphasized that the company’s new vaccine offers advantages over existing options. Traditional vaccines, especially live or inactivated ones, have struggled due to maternal immunity interference and administration challenges. However, The Vaccine Group’s injectable candidate bypasses these issues by using a viral vector that avoids neutralisation by maternal antibodies, without the practical drawbacks of intranasal delivery.

The company is now exploring licensing deals and commercial development opportunities, with Salt noting that additional funding could enable internal development through contract manufacturers.

      <title>Moon Inc pushes global strategy forward with U.S. exposure and crypto-integrated products</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Moon Inc CEO John Riggins joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC studio in New York City to outline the company’s rapid expansion into the U.S. and broader Asia-Pacific region, alongside meaningful adoption of Bitcoin-focused financial products.

Moon Inc., a Hong Kong–based telecommunications provider with more than 30 years of operating history, is transforming its business model by integrating cryptocurrency solutions into its established SIM card and mobile top-up distribution network. 

Riggins detailed the company’s recent advancements — including the rollout of a prepaid Bitcoin card that doubles as a physical cold-storage wallet, enabling secure Bitcoin ownership without complicated setup. The product is positioned for both personal use and gifting, with demand growing among first-time crypto adopters.

In support of this strategy, Moon Inc. has continued to increase its Bitcoin holdings as a long-term balance-sheet asset. “We acquired more Bitcoin this past Friday,” Riggins shared, emphasizing management’s conviction that owning the digital asset aligns with the company’s future-forward positioning.

The company is also accelerating geographic expansion, broadening its presence into Thailand and Korea. Riggins highlighted new partnerships and investments — including collaboration with CP Group in Korea and an equity stake in Bit Planet — designed to grow the retail footprint for both telecom and cryptocurrency products across key Asian markets.

Alongside operational scale-up, Moon Inc. has expanded its access to U.S. investors through its new listing on the OTCQX market under the ticker MXXNF, complementing its existing Hong Kong Stock Exchange listing (1723.HK). “One thing we’ve consistently heard from investors is that they want easier exposure to Moon Inc. in U.S. dollars,” said Riggins, noting that the new listing is expected to increase liquidity and broaden the company’s investor base.

      <title>HIVE Digital reaches 23 EH/s, accelerates AI compute expansion across global operations</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Hive Digital Technologies Executive Chairman Frank Holmes joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a significant milestone amid what he describes as the accelerating AI super cycle: the company has now reached 23 exahash per second (EH/s) in global Bitcoin-mining capacity, representing 283% year-to-date growth and positioning HIVE among the sector’s performance leaders in 2025.

Holmes also shared that HIVE has finalized the acquisition of 32.5 additional acres in Grand Falls, New Brunswick, adjacent to its current operations. The expanded site is being developed as a cornerstone Tier III+ high-performance computing (HPC) campus capable of supporting more than 25,000 next-generation GPUs. Powered by renewable energy, the location is strategically aligned with the accelerating demand for hyperscale-ready infrastructure to support global AI deployment.

HIVE is rapidly advancing its Tier III+ HPC roadmap across multiple regions. In Boden, Sweden, the company is converting an existing Tier I facility into a liquid-cooled data center that will be able to support 2,000 high-performance GPUs for European AI workloads, targeting a 9-to-12-month deployment timeline — significantly faster than a full greenfield data-center build.

In Toronto, the BUZZ data-center acquisition is expected to bring 2,000 GPUs online in 2026, while a new Bell colocation partnership is set to add another 2,000 GPUs over the next nine months. By the end of 2026, HIVE anticipates operating 6,000 next-generation GPUs across these new facilities, complementing its existing fleet of 5,000 GPUs already in operation.

With the planned mining-to-HPC conversion at Grand Falls — projected to achieve a power usage effectiveness (PUE) of 1.3 — the site alone could host an additional 25,000 GPUs, giving the company long-term capacity for approximately 36,000 high-performance GPUs globally.
Holmes emphasized that HIVE’s strategy is built for the moment: in the AI super cycle, HPC infrastructure is not optional — it is the essential engine driving innovation.

      <title>OPT achieves AUVSI certification to provide professional training for uncrewed maritime systems</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Ocean Power Technologies CEO Philipp Stratmann joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share that the company has been officially certified by the Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) as a Trusted Uncrewed Maritime Systems Operator Training Provider — marking a key milestone in the formalization and professionalization of uncrewed surface vehicle operations.

With this designation, OPT joins a select group of organizations authorized to deliver AUVSI-aligned operator training under the nation’s first industry-led standards framework for uncrewed maritime systems. The programs are designed to serve government, defense, commercial, and academic customers seeking proficiency certification for uncrewed surface vehicle operations.

Stratmann explained that training will leverage OPT’s proprietary WAM-V® or Wave Adaptive Modular Vessel platform, valued for its versatility, stability, and adaptability across diverse mission requirements and sea conditions. Courses — which generate a new recurring revenue stream — will be provided at both OPT’s Pacific and Atlantic coastal facilities, as well as directly at customer locations.

The AUVSI Trusted UMS Operator Program establishes a unified benchmark for operational competency, ethics, and safety, advancing workforce development and aligning operators with evolving regulatory and security standards across the maritime autonomy sector.

Stratmann says becoming a certified training provider enhances U.S. preparedness and supports the rapid growth of defense and commercial applications for uncrewed maritime technologies.

      <itunes:summary>Ocean Power Technologies CEO Philipp Stratmann joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share that the company has been officially certified by the Association for Uncrewed Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI) as a Trusted Uncrewed Maritime Systems Operator Training Provider — marking a key milestone in the formalization and professionalization of uncrewed surface vehicle operations.

With this designation, OPT joins a select group of organizations authorized to deliver AUVSI-aligned operator training under the nation’s first industry-led standards framework for uncrewed maritime systems. The programs are designed to serve government, defense, commercial, and academic customers seeking proficiency certification for uncrewed surface vehicle operations.

Stratmann explained that training will leverage OPT’s proprietary WAM-V® or Wave Adaptive Modular Vessel platform, valued for its versatility, stability, and adaptability across diverse mission requirements and sea conditions. Courses — which generate a new recurring revenue stream — will be provided at both OPT’s Pacific and Atlantic coastal facilities, as well as directly at customer locations.

The AUVSI Trusted UMS Operator Program establishes a unified benchmark for operational competency, ethics, and safety, advancing workforce development and aligning operators with evolving regulatory and security standards across the maritime autonomy sector.

Stratmann says becoming a certified training provider enhances U.S. preparedness and supports the rapid growth of defense and commercial applications for uncrewed maritime technologies.

      <title>Santhera Pharmaceuticals provides hope for DMD sufferers with AGAMREE treatment</title>
      <description><![CDATA[Santhera Pharmaceuticals chief medical officer Dr Shabir Hasham talked with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion about the company’s progress in launching AGAMREE, a dissociative corticosteroid for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD).

Santhera is a Swiss specialty pharmaceutical company focused on treatments for pediatric rare diseases. Its lead product, AGAMREE, aims to offer comparable efficacy to traditional corticosteroids while reducing the debilitating side effects often associated with long-term steroid use in DMD patients. Hasham noted that current treatments are frequently discontinued or reduced after a few years due to growth stunting, weight gain, and other complications.

“Our drug AGAMREE is a corticosteroid, but we’ve been able to modify the structure of it… we offer the same efficacy… but we are able to avoid many of the debilitating side effects,” said Hasham.

The treatment has already launched in Germany, Austria, and the UK, with further European rollouts expected in the coming months. Commercialisation in the US is underway via a partnership with Catalyst Pharmaceuticals, and entry into China has begun through Spirit Genetics.

New long-term data from the Guardian study shows patients treated for up to eight years exhibited no growth stunting and significantly fewer fractures. Hasham said the data may encourage wider use in countries where steroid uptake has been low and added, “This will make a very positive impact in terms of our ability to roll the drug out.”
