FPX Nickel (TSX-V: FPX, OTCQB: FPOCF) just announced and closed a $16 million strategic equity investment from major global stainless steel producer Outokumpu. FPX has issued 26,800,000 common shares in the capital of the company to Outokumpu at a price of C$0.60 per common share, for gross proceeds of C$16,080,000. Upon completion of the private placement, Outokumpu now owns approximately 9.9% of FPX’s issued and outstanding common shares on a non-diluted basis. CEO Martin Turenne stated: ““This strategic investment by Outokumpu represents a significant technical validation of FPX’s Baptiste Nickel Project, and underscores Canada’s critical role as a supplier of choice to allied industrial partners in Europe and the United States, Outokumpu is a large and highly-regarded global operator, with a robust track record of producing the world’s most sustainable stainless steel, and is one of the largest single consumers of nickel in the world. Our partnership with Outokumpu testifies to Baptiste’s potential to produce a premium nickel product that can bypass the intermediate smelting stage, thus becoming a highly sought-after feedstock for the responsible production of low-carbon finished products in multiple consumer and industrial markets, including stainless steel. FPX is pleased to be Outokumpu’s preferred partner as they look to secure the sustainable, long-life nickel units which are best aligned with their strategic objectives.” 0:00 Introduction 1:24 Outokumpu invests $16mm into FPX Nickel 3:01 Why Outokumpu wanted to invest in FPX 4:46 Drawbacks to doing deal with a stainless steel partner? 6:55 FPX’s low-cost renewable energy source 9:03 Electrified mining fleet=even lower carbon emissions 10:26 Advancing through the mining development cycle 13:05 Lithium stealing nickel’s luster? 15:01 Hunting for “nickel elephants” with JOGMEC 18:42 $33mm in the treasury 20:32 “We may never have to do a traditional capital raise again” Company website: https://fpxnickel.com/ Press release found here: https://fpxnickel.com/news/ FPX Nickel Presentation: https://fpxnickel.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/FPX-Presentation-Q2-2023-v1.pdf Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 FPX Nickel is an MSE sponsor.

“The pure coal plays are trading at a huge, huge discount to inherent values. The price to earnings tends to be about 1.5 to 2 for these companies, which means you are getting as much as 50% of the share price in cash and after-tax earnings every year” explains analyst Jayant Bhandari. In this interview Jayant gives his view on the mining sector’s current M&A landscape, security of supply, geopolitical risk, cash allocation in a portfolio, his top picks and much more.

“In our sector [junior mining] it’s never different. And so its very, very predictable corporate behavior and investment behavior. It’s trying to having a layer of objectivity to understand where you are in that cycle and invest accordingly. And so when you start to see, I’ll call it ‘low-risk M&A’, that’s normally the sign that you are at the beginning of a sustained movement in the underlying commodity price and obviously those equities tend to follow that,” shared Dr. Adshead-Bell Nicole Adshead-Bell is the Director of Cupel Advisory. She is a PhD geologist by trade and has worked in the resource sector for more than 24 years. Her roles within the sector have varied from analyst to M&A facilitator to junior resource company board member.

Regenx Tech Corp. just commissioned module one of a four module plant in Tennessee. Commercial production from module one is expected to begin within 90 days. This is the first of a minimum of four plants Regenx expects to build throughout the USA. Each plant will yield around US$15mm/year and clean tech companies can expect to receive a 15x cashflow multiple. Some clean tech companies over a billion-dollar market cap receive a 60x multiple. CEO Greg Pendura says that as Regenx executes its growth plan over the next 3-4 years the company’s market cap should rise from its C$30mm market cap to over $1billion. Regenx has proprietary clean technology which it is employing at its plant in Tennessee to recover platinum and palladium from used diesel CCs. Historically, smelting has been the dominate commercial method to recover Pd and Pt from used CCs. But smelters have a limited capacity, are environmentally hazardous and now refuse to accept diesel CCs due to the processing inefficiencies they create. This opens up a projected US$39.3 billion per year used diesel CC market by 2025. Regenx is poised to capitalize on the massive opportunity in the used diesel CC market via its processing and supply chain competitive advantages. First, Regenx has, via its proprietary technology, an ability to precipitate Pt and Pd into concentrate and recover about 90% of the metals in an environmentally-friendly manner. Second, Regenx has an exclusive partnership with Davis Recycling which will provide more spent diesel CCs than the company will initially be able to process.
