AuKing Mining in the thick of the uranium action

AuKing Mining Ltd

AuKing Mining Ltd (ASX:AKN) CEO Paul Williams tells Proactive the company has been granted three new prospecting licences at its Mkuju Uranium Project in Tanzania, establishing a significant position in an emerging uranium hotspot. These new licences, granted by the Tanzanian Mining Commission, are east of AuKing’s existing portfolio of tenures and span more than 345 square kilometres. The additional tenure features radiometric highs similar in appearance to the world-class Nyota uranium deposit to the immediate northeast. “Our work to date has already established a strong correlation between radiometric anomalies and uranium mineralisation," Williams said. "In particular, the radiometric anomalies in these new areas bear a striking resemblance to the radiometric high that sits over the world-class Nyota uranium deposit.” Contact Details Proactive Investors Jonathan Jackson +61 413 713 744 Jonathan@proactiveinvestors.com

Cara Veterinary Pioneers Modern Pet Care Through Comcast Business Solutions

Comcast Pacific Northwest

Comcast Business today announced that it is providing Cara Veterinary, one of Washington’s leading veterinary care networks, with Ethernet Dedicated Internet (EDI) at its 10 locations across Washington state. The technology powers network connections and technology-dependent veterinary care services across all of Cara Veterinary’s locations, helping to enhance the efficiency and reliability of Cara Veterinary’s network of clinics. Rooted in the Irish word for 'friend,' Cara Veterinary understands that pets are increasingly considered irreplaceable family members – for many, pets are closer to children than they are animals. As a result, Cara Veterinary has continually evolved its veterinary practice since its establishment in 2018 to ensure that its health care model addresses both the medical needs of animals and the emotional needs of humans. With 10 clinic locations across the greater Seattle region, Cara Veterinary is committed to listening to its clients with empathy and treating them like family. The company is known for prioritizing the health and happiness of pets, approaching its work with compassion, as well as being active in the communities it serves. This approach ensures that Cara Veterinary can offer pets and their owners unparalleled care, and foster relationships built on trust and expertise. While the veterinary industry has always relied on technology to help conduct pet exams, over the past several years, the operations side of the industry has further evolved to become more tech-forward. For Cara Veterinary, that shift presented further opportunities to connect with and listen to their clients by using technology to create even stronger customer connections. Paper-based files have become electronic medical records that both clinics and customers can access, and communication between clinic staff and customers has expanded from phone calls to online booking platforms, chats and emails. Additionally, in the pursuit of re-imagining what veterinary care looks like, Cara Veterinary often experiments with new ways of delivering care and communicating with its customers, incorporating pioneering technologies and modernized operations into its ecosystem of clinics. Cara Veterinary recognized that a reliable network backbone would be essential to supporting these business needs and their ongoing mission of compassionate care. The company turned to Comcast Business for technology that could handle both current and future bandwidth demands. “Our intricate technology ecosystem, which spans from patient records to diagnostic lab results and multi-faceted customer communications, is the pulse of our operations, so we need an advanced network powering our workflow,” said Peter Brown, president of Cara Veterinary. “Comcast Business not only assures us the network speed we need, but also peace of mind thanks to its reliable infrastructure.” With EDI from Comcast Business integrated across all Cara Veterinary locations, the technology helps guarantee lightning-fast network speeds for staff and customers alike. Beyond just connectivity, the tech-infused synergy between the clinics facilitates operational cohesion, like cross-location bookings. Moreover, by automating and streamlining many administrative tasks, Cara Veterinary’s staff can shift their focus from paperwork to personalized client and pet interactions, making every visit more memorable. In spring 2024, Cara Veterinary will open the doors of its 11 th clinic location in the greater Seattle area. Comcast Business is set to provide EDI at the newest location and support Cara Veterinary as it integrates the clinic into its broader network of facilities. The expansion is a testament to the demand for Cara Veterinary’s services, and to Comcast Business’ ability to evolve its solutions in tandem with its customers’ growth. “The real power of technology lies not just in automation, but in its potential to forge deeper, more meaningful interactions between businesses and the people they serve,” said Rob Brenner, vice president of Comcast Business for Comcast’s Pacific Northwest Region. “Cara Veterinary's approach to serving its customers is a prime example of how technology can foster genuine human connections. Comcast Business is proud to provide the technological backbone that allows Cara Veterinary to create those invaluable human-to-human moments.” Comcast Business offers a broad suite of technology solutions to keep businesses of all sizes ready for what’s next. With a range of offerings including connectivity, secure networking, advanced cybersecurity, and unified communications solutions, Comcast Business is partnering with business and technology leaders across industries and integrating Masergy, a leader in software defined networking, to help drive businesses forward.

Comcast Expands Broadband Access in Silverdale

Comcast Pacific Northwest

Comcast today announced it has begun construction to expand its smart, fast and reliable fiber-rich network to more than 450 additional homes and businesses in Silverdale. The majority of homes are expected to be serviced by early next year. The network expansion will offer Xfinity Internet services with residential broadband speeds faster than 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) and Comcast Business Internet speeds up to 100 Gbps. Residential customers will be able to take advantage of Xfinity’s full suite of internet products, including the company’s Internet Essentials program that provides low-cost, high-speed broadband for income-constrained households. Since its inception in 2011, the program has connected nearly 10,000 Kitsap County residents, many for the first time. Comcast also participates in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which provides qualifying households with a $30 monthly credit toward internet and mobile services. “I am so excited at the opportunity to make the switch to Xfinity. It was a great decision to have Silverdale be included in Comcast's expansion project. Whether it's faster and more reliable internet access to be able to work from home, or to better connect with friends and family over video calls, this improvement will make a huge difference in our daily lives,” said Silverdale resident Cheryl Christian. “We can’t wait to bring out powerful fiber-rich network to more homes and businesses in Silverdale. We’ve been working hard to expand on the Kitsap Peninsula and are proud to be part of the community, providing our services, working with local community organizations, and connecting as many people as we can in the area,” said Juan Key, senior director, Business Development, Comcast Pacific Northwest Region. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, affordable, reliable broadband internet service is fundamental to modern American life. It ensures rural schoolchildren have equal access to comprehensive educational opportunities and allows rural communities to provide the best health outcomes – at reasonable cost – to their residents. High-speed internet service stimulates job creation and sparks innovation that enhances rural economic development. Comcast’s network expansion in Silverdale is the latest example of the company’s investment to expand broadband access. The company is investing $280 million in 2023 to offer multi-gigabit Internet speeds to more than four million locations, expand broadband and video services to more than 60,000 additional homes and businesses, and provide donations and in-kind services to communities throughout Oregon and Washington. “Connecting people to the power of technology is important and life-changing,” said Rodrigo Lopez, Senior Regional Vice President of Comcast’s Pacific Northwest Region. That is why Comcast is investing $280 million this year to expand broadband and video services to more than 60,000 additional homes and businesses, enhance our network to offer multi-gigabit Internet speeds, and advance digital equity in communities throughout Oregon and Washington.” Powered by the Xfinity 10G Network Comcast’s network and Internet experience are powering homes and businesses today and into the future: Ultimate Capacity: Xfinity customers connect nearly 1 billion devices across the company’s network annually. The Xfinity 10G Network with the next-generation Xfinity gateways deliver the most advanced WiFi technology carrying three times more bandwidth to power streaming, gaming, videoconferencing, and more, simultaneously. Fastest Internet: More than a third of Xfinity Internet customers subscribe to gigabit speed products, and symmetrical gig speeds are planned to come to the first homes later this year. Unprecedented Coverage: The latest Xfinity Gateway provides a more reliable connection throughout the home. Customers can get wall-to-wall WiFi coverage with a powerful Xfinity WiFi Boost Pod that extends coverage to hard-to-reach areas, with plans for an offering of increased support for in-home WiFi through a “boost guarantee” later this year. Most Reliable Connection: Comcast is scaling the nation’s largest and most reliable network – the Xfinity 10G Network – that passes 60 million homes and businesses and counting. The company plans to launch a new device that is “storm ready” with cellular and battery backup to help keep customers connected even when the power goes out. Ultra-Low Latency: The Xfinity 10G Network and the latest Xfinity Gateway are a powerful combination that deliver ultra-low latency for those moments when response times matter most like video games, a fast-growing category with Xfinity households averaging more than one gaming console per home. For local businesses, Comcast Business offers a suite of connectivity, cybersecurity, managed solutions and Comcast Business Mobile products designed specifically for their employee’s needs. Powered by the nation’s largest Gig-speed broadband network, and backed by 24/7 customer support, Comcast Business is the nation’s largest cable and Internet provider to small and mid-size businesses and one of the leading providers to larger organizations in the Enterprise market. Comcast Business has been consistently recognized by industry analysts and associations as a leader and innovator, and one of the fastest growing providers of Ethernet services.

Cobalt Blue sees huge opportunity for waste stream business

Cobalt Blue Holdings Ltd

Cobalt Blue Holdings Ltd (ASX:COB, OTC:CBBHF) projects acquisition manager Helen Degeling tells Proactive the company will proceed to the next stage of testing its proprietary minerals processing technology on Hudbay Minerals Inc’s Flin Flon tailings storage facility in Manitoba, Canada, after positive results from preliminary roasting test-work. The completed roasting tests achieved greater than 90% conversion of the pyrite into pyrrhotite and elemental sulphur with these results warranting further evaluation. In late June, COB entered into a test-work co-operation agreement with respect to Hudbay’s wholly-owned Flin Flon tailings storage facility. Degeling's comments follow the statement of COB chief executive officer Joe Kaderavek: “Reprocessing mining waste containing pyrite and recovering metals remains a focus for our business. Generally, the opportunities include cobalt-containing pyrite, along with other base and precious metal sulphides such as copper, zinc and gold.” Contact Details Proactive Investors Jonathan Jackson +61 413 713 744 jonathan@proactiveinvestors.com

Mayur Resources Ltd managing director Paul Mulder sat down with Proactive’s Andrew Scott to discuss the company’s significant newsflow from the past month. Mulder outlines the Investment Agreement with Vision Blue Resources for a proposed investment of US$40 million for a 49% equity share in Mayur’s Central Lime Project (CLP). He also discusses the recent exclusive non-binding term sheet with Appian Capital Advisory to fund the CLP. This US$90 million total debt funding package is to be made available with US$70 million drawn initially to support the CLP’s ‘base case’ of 400,000 tonnes of Quicklime per annum and a further US$20 million available for quicklime kiln expansions. Finally, the company secured a financing package of $10 million from a consortium of professional and sophisticated investors.

At the time of the Vision Blue announcement, Mulder said "We are thrilled to partner with Vision Blue on the Central Lime Project. Vision Blue recognises the pivotal role the Central Lime Project can play in meeting the escalating demand for Lime across various environmental and renewable energy sectors.

News Release

crawless’™ Distributed, All-In-One Web Automation Platform Enables Businesses to Easily Scale Web Automation Tasks

Prodigy Press Wire

With huge advancements in technology in recent years, many businesses are looking to automate many aspects of their operations to become more efficient and benefit from increased cost, time, and manpower savings. One such form of automation is web automation, where software robots perform predefined actions and processes on a web browser or web application, such as visiting websites and gathering data from them, a process known as web scraping. In web scraping, robots are programmed to extract data from web pages, as well as reorganize and store that data in a way that is useful for businesses. This data may include contact information of potential leads, commodity prices, product reviews, weather data, and many more. Traditionally, businesses employed multiple people to gather this data, but the repetitive nature of this task introduces the element of human error, such as data duplicates or missed tasks, which impact productivity. Used ethically, web automation presents huge benefits to businesses. However, owners of websites often do not want bots “snooping around” on their websites for bandwidth and data security concerns, so they employ various programs to filter out and block all web automation bots, regardless of purpose. crawless™, a web automation technology startup headquartered in Singapore, has developed an edge computing-based web automation solution, built on top of Google’s open-source web browser. Most web automation solutions employ cloud computing, which uses centralized data centers, leading to websites easily recognizing the bots and blocking them. crawless™ uses edge computing, which is the opposite of cloud computing. Computation is done at the “edge” of the network, which, in crawless™ case, are numerous personal computers. Using this distributed edge computing model, crawless™ bots are more easily able to mimic human behavior, reducing the chances of getting blocked. Furthermore, according to crawless™ Founder and CEO Andrei Stalbe, a distributed model such as edge computing is a huge advantage for any business. In this model, businesses don't have to buy or rent servers in advance, resulting in cost savings. Andrei says that most businesses do not have a consistent, daily need for web automation and scraping – they only need it at certain times. If they buy a server from a cloud service, they pay the same amount whether they use it or not. On the other hand, crawless™’ solution only charges businesses for the resources they use, making it very easy to scale up or scale down their web automation operations. “With cloud, businesses have to set up their web automation platforms from scratch, and they have to pay for it in advance. In our business model, the infrastructure is already present, and ready to be used at any time. Our application is installed on many devices, but we and our clients are not paying for those devices unless we are actively using their computation power,” Andrei says. Andrei adds that other web automation tools in the market today are highly technical, requiring businesses that use them to make heavy investments in their IT capabilities to make it work. crawless ™ created an integrated development environment (IDE) for web automation, allowing for easier programming of web automation tasks. crawless™ IDE also allows users to work entirely inside the browser. Because they don't have to switch environments just to test their programs, it minimizes the risk of errors. Andrei shares that one of their recent clients, a US-based dropshipping company, worked with crawless™ to develop a web automation algorithm for its process of buying, listing, selling, and shipping its products. This allowed the company to automate the work of a 30-person team, with only one person monitoring the process. Interested parties can book a discovery call with Andrei here to find out more about how crawless™ can do the same for them. “Through our edge computing solution, crawless™' clients spend five times less on development and spend virtually nothing on deployment compared to users of other solutions,” he says. “Our decentralized edge infrastructure enables clients to scale up or down as fast as they want, depending on their needs. They don't need to spend a lot of time and money on setting up their web automation infrastructure, allowing them to concentrate their resources on growing their business.” Media contact: Name: Andrei Stalbe Email: hi@crawless.com Release ID: 816567
