IGO’s Year of Hell + the Return of David Flanagan!
Plenty of mining news for us to sink our teeth into in our final day for the year (we’ve got some cracking interviews to release in the coming days!) First cab off the rank is IGO (IGO), who’ve capped a tough year with another poor announcement regarding their Cosmos operation. Next up we couldn’t help but discuss the news that David Flanagan is back in the arena with Arrow Minerals (AMD) looking to build something big and very good in Guinea. The AVL/TMT got some airtime as AVL chucked in a best & final sweetener to get the deal done, while West African Resources (WAF) released a maiden resource at M5 South to add ounces at their Sanbrado operation. Our last story for the day was Spartan Resources (SPR) who shared additional assays from Never Never, as the market awaits their resource upgrade announcement.

Today’s episode is our first venture into the world of energy.

Evolution buy Northparkes + Reward wraps up Kalium Lakes
We go deep on 2 deals today, first up the big one, Evolution spending up to secure Northparkes. As the Money Miners would expect, we go deep into all the details, including why they’ve bought it, what the streaming does and what the actual price is. Our second deal to dive into was the acquisition of the Beyondie potash project by Reward Minerals. Our chief potash expert, Travis Riccardinho, took great pleasure in pulling apart the deal to assess what it actually means for previous equity & debt holders, and to see if anyone is winning.

Who’s failing AGM season? + Not believing the “substantial” PLS hype
We round out an eventful week by calling out all those company’s whose shareholders voted down remuneration resolutions for exec’s. Next up we speak about Euro Manganese’s (EMN) funding announcement to lighten their mood then onto the Balmaine (Ballarat) gold mine administration process. We say some headlines around “AusSuper going substantial on Pilbara Minerals (PLS)” which we had to call out as well as one of the more eventful AGMs at Magnis (MNS) which we weren’t able to attend. The game has changed a bit at OreCorp (ORR) so that got a mention and lastly we had to mention the award of the Mt Marion decline by MinRes (MIN) to Develop (DVP).
