    Blackstone Minerals (ASX: BSX) fast-tracks new copper-gold project in the Philippines (w/ Scott Williamson)

    Blackstone Minerals (ASX: BSX) managing director Scott Williamson joins Small Caps to discuss the company's early successes at the new Mankayan copper and gold project in the Philippines. Just over two months after acquiring Mankayan, the company has unveiled promising historic assay results from the deepest hole drilled at the project. The previously unreleased significant intercept included a highlight 1.25% copper equivalent hit at 432m. The results from the hole drilled in 2013 by Goldfields were identified by Blackstone in its early assessments of Mankayan. Blackstone’s study of the project has led the company to assess Mankayan as one of the best undeveloped copper-gold projects globally. Notably, Mankayan remains open at depth and along strike to the north and Blackstone is preparing to quickly follow-up that potential. Mankayan's development will be supported by Blackstone’s extensive experience in base metals mine development, particularly in Southeast Asia.

    Terra Uranium (ASX: T92) identifies high-grade gold-silver-tin at Ottery mine in NSW (w/ Andrew Vigar)

    Terra Uranium (ASX: T92) executive chairman Andrew Vigar joins Small Caps to discuss the recent acquisition of the proven Ottery project in NSW. The company is following up the historic identification of gold, silver and tin potential of the project.Terra made the strategic decision to add Ottery to its portfolio with a binding term sheet to acquire 100% of the issued capital of LCT Metals in mid-March. The move has allowed the company to build on its uranium exploration success with the opportunity to target not only tin, but also gold and silver, with the precious metals only lightly targeted in the past. The next stage of understanding the project's upside will see a focus on historic activities undertaken by EZ (now part of Rio Tinto) in the 1980s.

    Wellnex Life (ASX: WNX) executive director Zack Bozinovski joins Small Caps to discuss the company's recent expansions and the receipt of key market authorisations (MA). Most recently it received a MA approval for its liquid paracetamol plus caffeine soft gel. That approval builds on the company's previous MAs for liquid paracetamol, liquid paracetamol plus ibuprofen and liquid mini-ibuprofen. The liquid paracetamol plus caffeine soft gel approval is expected to drive additional revenue opportunities for Wellnex Life alongside the existing MAs being utilised by domestic and international companies like Chemist Warehouse and Haleon. The unique product is expected to provide opportunities not only to use in the company’s own brands but also opportunities to license it to third parties. Wellnex Life recently delivered its TGA registered paracetamol soft gel liquid analgesic to Haleon and the UK market. The company also recently acquired leading Australian topical pain relief brand Pain Away. In addition, Wellnex Life reported record sales of $3 million per month for November and December 2024, with 56% of the revenue coming from its own high-margin brands.

    International Graphite (ASX: IG6) receives $4m government grant for mine-to-market battery graphite plans (w/ Andrew Worland)

    International Graphite (ASX: IG6) managing director and chief executive officer Andrew Worland joins Small Caps to discuss the recent $4 million grant from the Western Australian government to help fast track development of its Springdale-Collie mine-to-market battery graphite supply strategy. That WA support took the company’s total funding support from Australian state and federal governments to $17.2 million. The new funds will pay for essential activities to help propel the company’s mine-to-market strategy through feasibility to commercialisation. The new grant will also be applied to the installation of Australia’s first demonstration-scale spheroidiser at the company’s graphite processing and research and development facility at Collie. The Collie plant is a key component of the company’s fully-integrated graphite supply strategy which will see graphite mined at the world-class Mason Bay and Springdale Central deposits in southern WA and then processed at  the first purpose- built commercial graphite micronising plant in Australia at Collie. The fully integrated graphite supply strategy has already attracted the attention of potential customers and finance partners from destinations such as North America, Japan and Korea.

    Terra Uranium (ASX: T92) ready to take its projects to the next level in 2025 (w/ Andrew Vigar)

    Terra Uranium (ASX: T92) executive chairman Andrew Vigar joins Small Caps to discuss the company's successes in 2024 and its growth plans in 2025. The company is entering an exciting new phase of growth and discovery after expanding its footprint and deepening its knowledge as it moves closer to unlocking the immense potential of a world-class portfolio. 2025 will see Terra Uranium advance its recent transformative agreements with Atha Energy under which it will explore their Spire & Horizon projects and drill its core Pasfield project. The exploration programs at Spire & Horizon are considered a game-changing milestone for Terra, adding significant near-surface prime uranium exploration areas with good year-round access and proximity to existing uranium mining and milling infrastructure to its portfolio. An initial work program has been completed at Spire & Horizon with airborne geophysics comprising a gravity, magnetics and radiometrics survey and surface prospecting confirming anomalous high-grade boulder trains and prospecting up the ice-flow direction to narrow airborne geophysics targets. Surface samples in the Spire & Horizon areas contain impressive historical results, with boulder sample grades of up to 3.53% U3O8, and Terra is confident that this deposit holds much more. The company has also made significant progress on its our core projects - HawkRock, Pasfield and Parker. Terra's rapid growth plans come at a time when the uranium market has shifted significantly, with prices surging to levels not seen in over a decade.
