Cooper Metals sows seeds for busy June quarter amid heavy drilling activity

COOPER METALS LIMITED

Cooper Metals Ltd (ASX:CPM) managing director Ian Warland is back in the Proactive studio to recap drilling activities and the explorer’s latest quarterly report.Cooper has just completed its third drilling campaign of the year, targeting copper-gold mineralisation across four regional targets at its Mt Isa East project in northwest Queensland. The prospects in question — Raven, Mafic Sweats North, Mafic Sweats South and Yarraman — were together the focus of 12 reverse circulation holes and around 1,800 metres of drilling.Following the campaign, more than 500 one-metre samples were dispatched for analysis to a laboratory in Mt Isa, primarily from the prominent Mafic Sweats South prospect. While a busy exploration season has hampered lab turnaround times, Warland is excited to bring fresh results to the market in the current quarter.Recapping the last three months of activity, the MD highlighted regional drilling endeavours and sampling efforts across the project portfolio. He also called out the Brumby Ridge and Guru targets, where the explorer hopes to be on the ground again in short order.Looking ahead, Warland noted that the company is well funded to keep the momentum going, with A$4.4 million in the bank thanks to a recent capital raise. The company looks forward to delivering more assays, completing regional geochem and mapping programs and building on its portfolio of drilling targets before the end of the financial year.

OCEAN innovates: Bitcoin miners offered first ever Lightning Payouts using BOLT12

Bitcoin Ocean,LLC

OCEAN [ link ], the Bitcoin mining pool backed by Jack Dorsey and spearheaded by longtime Bitcoin Core developer Luke Dashjr, released its latest innovation offering miners payouts over the Bitcoin Lightning network using cutting edge Lightning tech BOLT12. Lightning is a network that sits on top of Bitcoin enabling higher throughput of transactions at lower cost. Lightning allows users to have hundreds or even thousands of interactions while carrying out fewer base layer transactions, effectively solving the scalability problem that will help Bitcoin fulfill its potential as a secure, decentralized, peer to peer network. According to OCEAN co-founder Luke Dashjr, “Pools traditionally have held miners’ bitcoins like a bank, while on-chain Bitcoin transactions get increasingly expensive as the demand for Bitcoin rises. For small miners, the problem is exacerbated since in some cases the cost of the transaction fee is higher than the reward that they earn. This is unsustainable because it creates lock-in to custodial pools. OCEAN helps overcome this risk using Lightning.” While not a nascent technology in Bitcoin, much of the development in Lightning has focused on infrastructure or rails upon which users can transact. OCEAN’s latest development solves a complimentary challenge by creating another path of liquidity from Bitcoin to miners. Perhaps the most innovative part of OCEAN’s upgrade is BOLT12 integration. BOLT12 is a nextgen upgrade in Lightning which solves previous limitations that restricted Lightning’s utility and adoption. OCEAN is the first mining pool to use it, and has done so in an effort to respect the core tenets of decentralization and miner-sovereignty. Bitcoin Mechanic, Global Head of Sales for OCEAN, added, “Using BOLT12 also allows us to prove to the world that a payment was made, the size of the payment, the node to which it was paid, and that it was paid by us. This means we can continue to offer fully transparent and verifiable pooled mining while no longer being restricted by the base layer.” Since its launch 5 months ago, OCEAN has created a paradigm shift in what’s possible with mining pools, offering transparency, non-custodial mining rewards, permissionless access, and miner-chosen block templates; now with Lightning via BOLT12, miners can also get liquidity directly into a Lightning channel without having to rely on third party custodians. This latest announcement aligns with OCEAN’s overarching goal of increasing miners’ sovereignty while promoting greater transparency and decentralization in the world of Bitcoin mining. About OCEAN: OCEAN empowers miners to take back control of the intelligent parts of mining, and is designed to be non-custodial, transparent, and permissionless. OCEAN is operated by Bitcoin Ocean, LLC, a subsidiary of Mummolin, Inc., a Wyoming corporation and a successor to the Eligius Bitcoin mining pool which operated from 2011 to 2017.

Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals outlines significant progress with HEMO-CAR-T in 2023

HemoGenyx Pharmaceuticals

Hemogenyx Pharmaceuticals PLC CEO Dr Vladislav Sandler tells Proactive's Stephen Gunnion that 2023 was a significant year for the company, marked by notable progress with its HEMO-CAR-T product candidate. The key achievement for the year was the submission of a new Investigational New Drug (IND) application to the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) to commence a phase one clinical trial for the treatment of relapsed refractory acute myeloid leukemia. However, the process faced a setback due to issues with lentivirus purity, resulting in a clinical hold. After re-manufacturing the lentivirus, Hemogenyx successfully addressed the FDA's concerns and received approval to proceed with the clinical trials. Furthermore, Sandler reported a successful fundraising which will support the upcoming clinical studies. The company also entered a service agreement with Prevail Infoworks for the clinical trials. In addition to its advancements in HEMO-CAR-T, Hemogenyx continued developing other programs, such as its proprietary Chimeric Bait Receptor (CBR) platform, showing promise in treating non-Hodgkin lymphoma and exploring applications in solid rare tumors. For 2024, the primary focus remains on advancing these clinical trials, particularly the phase one studies, with an immediate goal to initiate patient treatment.

Fah Mai Holdings CEO calls for greater regulation in whisky cask trading

Fah Mai Holdings Group Inc

Fah Mai Holdings Group Inc (OTC:FMHG) CEO Louis Haseman discusses the need for regulating the whisky industry, particularly focusing on the trade of whisky casks. In an interview with Proactive's Stephen Gunnion, Haseman highlighted a significant issue with scams involving non-existent whisky casks, referencing a public statement by Fergus Ewing of the Scottish National Party about £4 million worth of fictitious casks sold last year. Haseman emphasized that this figure likely underestimates the true extent of fraud in the industry. Current regulations primarily cover the production and storage of Scotch whisky but do not adequately address the trading of whisky casks, which has minimal oversight. This lack of regulation makes the market susceptible to fraudulent activities. Haseman argued for increased transparency in the trading process to ensure that investors are aware of the actual existence and value of the casks they purchase. He noted the innovative efforts by Vikki Bruce, who developed 'CaskNet', a platform aiming to provide transparency and potentially mitigate scams by verifying casks. This initiative represents a step towards improving industry standards and protecting consumers. Contact Details Proactive UK +44 20 7989 0813 UKEditorial@proactiveinvestors.com
