Applied Graphite Technologies Corporation

Applied Graphite Technology Corporation CEO Don Baxter joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a significant milestone for the company. Applied Graphite has closed a non-brokered private placement with a strategic investor for $300,000. The net proceeds will be used for the exploration of the Queens Mine Complex graphite project.

Golden Arrow Resources Corp

Golden Arrow Resources Corporation Vice President of Exploration and Development Brian McEwan joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's exploration activities in Chile and Argentina. McEwan revealed that the company is currently drilling the second hole of a 10,000-meter diamond drilling campaign aimed at facilitating the first Mineral Resource estimate for the San Pietro project later in 2024. The drilling campaign follows a successful 4,000-meter program in 2023, which identified significant extensions to known mineralization at the advanced Rincones target. Notably, hole SP-DDH-12 returned promising results, with a 64.2-meter interval averaging 0.86% copper, 0.20 g/t gold, 196 g/t cobalt, and 26.9% iron, starting at 42.8 meters downhole. In addition to the San Pietro project, Golden Arrow Resources Corporation is actively exploring the Yanso Project in San Juan province, Argentina. The project comprises 9,800 hectares across four non-contiguous concessions. Extensive reconnaissance mapping, sampling, and geophysical surveying have been conducted, resulting in the identification of multiple targets based on data from over 2,000 rock chip and channel samples, as well as IP-Resistivity and ground magnetic surveys. Furthermore, the company provided an update on the Potrerillos Project, which includes 4,000 hectares of 100%-controlled claims in the Valle de Cura district, located just 8 kilometers east of Barrick's Veladero gold mine and Pascua-Lama development project. Previous exploration campaigns identified high-grade structures, anomalous samples, and large areas of alteration. In the current field season, historic targets are being re-evaluated to update the project database and assess potential for continued work or joint ventures in the evolving exploration climate. Golden Arrow Resources Corporation's robust exploration efforts underscore its commitment to advancing its projects and unlocking the potential of its mineral assets in Chile and Argentina. With promising results and a strategic focus on resource development, the company is poised for further growth and success in the region.

Giyani Metals Shifts to EV Battery Manganese Processing, Secures new key members for Board

Giyani Metals Corp

Giyani Metals CEO Danny Keating joined Steve Darling from Proactive to highlight a significant transformation within the company, reflecting its shift from mining to processing high-purity manganese for the electric vehicle (EV) battery market. Over the past year, Giyani Metals successfully raised $26 million, welcomed new shareholders, and secured a strategic investor in the IDC group from South Africa. This evolution necessitates changes in the board composition to align with the company's new strategic direction. As part of this transition, several board members will step down, allowing for the infusion of fresh expertise, particularly in the EV battery market and project financing. Mark Burnett, an experienced professional in these areas, will join as interim chair until the Annual General Meeting (AGM). Giyani Metals is focused on constructing a demonstration plant in Johannesburg, aimed at showcasing its processing capabilities and products to potential offtake partners. This initiative plays a pivotal role in the company's broader objective of reaching a Final Investment Decision (FID) by mid-next year. Supported by mining permits, licenses, and a definitive feasibility study, Giyani Metals is strategically positioning itself to capitalize on the growing demand for battery-grade manganese. In the coming months, Giyani Metals will accelerate its program, complete the demonstration plant, and actively engage with customers to secure offtake agreements. These efforts are geared towards de-risking the project for future financing, underscoring the company's commitment to becoming a leading player in the EV battery materials market.

Jonathan’s Baker 'Fate The Movie' Plays Homage To Quentin Tarantino’s Vista Movie Theater

Baker Entertainment Group

“Nothing happens by accident” - Jonathan Baker. Jonathan Baker is a visionary director who is celebrated for his unparalleled filmmaking techniques. He is known for his hands-on approach, a keen eye for details and crafting compelling narratives that resonate deeply with audiences. His ability to immerse himself in every aspect of production ensures that his creative vision is flawlessly translated from the script to the screen. One of Baker’s biggest inspirations is visionary filmmaker, Quentin Tarantino for his innovative filmmaking approach. In his second to last directorial venture “Fate”, Baker is paying homage to Tarantino’s Vista Theater through the film's main location, The Vista Hotel and the casting of Harvey Keitel. Keitel, an esteemed actor who brings a commanding presence and depth to his character, enriching the film’s atmosphere and working to elevate the performance of the entire cast. The Vista Hotel becomes more than a location, but a central character. "The Vista Hotel was born out of Quentin Tarantino's visionary movie theater," says Baker. "It serves as a creative through-line, connecting the past with the present and infusing our film with a sense of nostalgia just as Harvey Keitel did”. Keitel's connection to both Baker and Tarantino adds a layer of authenticity to "Fate The Movie”.
