Zak Mir interviews Ajax Resources CEO Ippolito Cattaneo
<div> <p>Zak Mir talks to Ippolito Cattaneo, CEO of Ajax Resources, as the natural resources investment company announces it has entered into a binding preliminary agreement to exchange its Puna Metals portfolio, including the Eureka Project, for the Rachaite Prospect and El Salto Project in Argentina, with no immediate cash consideration.</p><p>This strategic move aims to consolidate Ajax’s land position in a prospective copper-silver district, immediately adjoining its flagship Macacha Copper-Silver Project with the El Salto acquisition, and provides an alternative route to acquire the Rachaite polymetallic project.</p><p>The transaction is subject to a 90-day mutual due diligence period and a 120-day exclusivity period, with the final structure to be determined during due diligence.</p><p><strong>Highlights<br></strong><br>· Binding preliminary agreement executed with MMSA in respect of the proposed acquisition of the Rachaite/Chocaya and El Salto mining projects.</p><p>· 90-day mutual due diligence period covering technical, legal, environmental, corporate, financial and commercial matters.</p><p>· 120-day binding exclusivity period, extendable by mutual agreement.</p><p>· El Salto is located immediately adjacent to Ajax’s flagship Macacha Copper-Silver Project and would materially strengthen the Company’s strategic land position, providing the opportunity to evaluate the broader geological potential of the district.</p><p>· Rachaite/Chocaya comprises the Rachaite Prospect and the Mina Chocaya exploration licence in Jujuy Province and has previously been announced by the Company as a highly prospective polymetallic exploration project.</p><p>· The Company is evaluating the optimal transaction structure, including whether the consideration will entail the transfer of the shares of Puna or, alternatively, the transfer of the underlying mining rights comprising the Puna portfolio, with the final structure to be determined during the due diligence process and reflected in the definitive transaction documentation.</p><p>· The Proposed Transaction would provide an alternative mechanism to complete the previously announced acquisition of Rachaite while simultaneously acquiring El Salto.</p><p>· The Proposed Transaction involves no immediate cash consideration, allowing the parties to complete a reciprocal exchange of mining assets while preserving the Company’s capital for exploration, resource definition and project advancement.</p><p>· Completion of the Proposed Transaction remains subject to the satisfactory completion of due diligence, execution of definitive documentation and satisfaction of customary closing conditions.</p><p><strong>Ippolito Ingo Cattaneo, Chief Executive Officer of Ajax Resources Plc, commented:<br></strong><br>“Since acquiring the Eureka Project and the adjoining La Escondida licences for aggregate consideration of US$250,000, Ajax has secured the environmental approvals required to commence exploration, become the first company in the project’s history to drill the property following more than 400 years of historic mining activity, expanded the licence package through the acquisition of the La Escondida 1 and La Escondida 2 exploration licences and commenced the permitting process for a proposed alluvial gold operation. These achievements have materially advanced Eureka and created the opportunity to consider how the value generated by the project can best be redeployed across the Company’s wider portfolio.</p><p>The Proposed Transaction would complete our previously announced acquisition of the Rachaite Prospect while expanding our flagship Macacha Copper-Silver Project through the acquisition of the immediately adjoining El Salto Project. We believe this would create a larger and more strategically coherent exploration position in north-west Argentina, providing the opportunity to evaluate the broader geological potential of the Macacha district.</p><p>The Proposed Transaction involves no immediate cash consideration, preserving the Company’s capital for exploration and project advancement. Our objective is to concentrate exploration expenditure on larger, district-scale opportunities that are more advanced and have greater near-term production potential. We look forward to working with Madero Minerals to complete our due diligence and negotiate the definitive transaction documentation.”</p><p><a href="https://www.share-talk.com/zak-mir-interviews-ajax-resources-ceo-ippolito-cattaneo/">https://www.share-talk.com/zak-mir-interviews-ajax-resources-ceo-ippolito-cattaneo/</a></p></div>

Zak Mir speaks with Orcadian Energy CEO Steve Brown
<div> <p>Zak Mir talks to <a href="https://www.investegate.co.uk/announcement/rns/orcadian-energy--orca/earlham-orwell-gas-development-concept-/9671317">Steve Brown, CEO of Orcadian Energy (AIM: ORCA)</a>, as the company announces it has commenced the Assessment Phase for the Earlham and Orwell gas fields, with a preferred development concept involving an offshore power station with carbon capture to fuel a co-located data centre, creating an "Earlham Gigagrid."</p><p>This project aims to monetize the gas resource, estimated at 114 billion cubic feet for Earlham and 31 billion cubic feet for Orwell, by generating approximately 200 MW of low-carbon power for a data centre, with captured carbon dioxide reinjected into the Earlham reservoir. </p><p>The company has also agreed to a deferred repayment schedule for approximately £1.34 million in loans from The Independent Power Corporation Limited, now due by December 31, 2027, with interest fixed at 8.5% per annum.</p><p><strong>Orcadian Begins Assessment Phase for Offshore Gas-to-Data Centre Project<br></strong><br>Orcadian Energy has commenced the Assessment Phase for the development of the Earlham and Orwell gas fields on its 100%-owned licence P2680.</p><p>The company’s preferred development concept is an offshore power station with integrated carbon capture, fuelled by gas from Earlham and Orwell, to supply a co-located offshore data centre. Orcadian said the project could form the first phase of an islanded, low-carbon offshore grid, branded the Earlham Gigagrid.</p><p>The concept is designed to monetise Earlham gas, which has a high carbon dioxide content, by generating power at the field, capturing the carbon dioxide and reinjecting it into the reservoir.</p><p>The company said a power station at Earlham could supply around 200MW of electrical power, or IT load, to an offshore data centre.</p><p>Orcadian and its consultants have conceived a platform complex capable of supporting a 200MW offshore data centre hall and providing the energy for that facility.</p><p>The group is establishing a new company, Earlham Gigagrid Ltd, to incubate the project and enable potential direct investment from third parties.</p><p>Orcadian estimates Earlham contains 114bcf of methane resources, while the previously depleted Orwell field could produce a further 31bcf.</p><p>The company said the proposed scheme could reduce pressure on the national grid while supporting rising demand for compute power driven by artificial intelligence.</p><p>Chief executive Steve Brown said the concept could be transformational for the value of licence P2680 and may ultimately attract interest from hyperscalers and specialist AI cloud infrastructure providers. He added that Orcadian will engage with the NSTA and other relevant regulators as part of the concept select process.</p><p>The project remains subject to NSTA approval, a Letter of No Objection for the selected concept, regulatory consents, commercial agreements and financing.</p></div>

Iofina reports record year as CEO discusses results with Zak Mir
<div> <p>Zak Mir talks to <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/tom-becker-7420607/">Dr Tom Becker, President & CEO, Iofina</a>, in the wake of the specialists in the exploration and production of iodine and manufacturers of speciality chemical products, announcing its audited full-year results for the 12 months to 31 December 2025. This included another record year: Production up 17%, Revenue up 22% and Adjusted EBITDA up 56%.</p><p>Iofina has been quietly doing the hard yards for years, and the market is now starting to pay attention.</p><p>Following its audited full-year 2025 results, the specialist iodine producer and chemical products business reported another record year, with <strong>production up 17%</strong>, <strong>revenue up 22%</strong> and <strong>adjusted EBITDA up 56%</strong>. That is the headline. The more interesting story sits underneath it: a company that has executed a very specific growth plan, built capacity at pace, and is now looking to accelerate again.</p><p>At the centre of that story is a simple idea. Iofina operates in a niche market, but one with critical end uses, steady demand, and room for disciplined expansion. For a business still valued at under £100 million, that combination is understandably beginning to attract attention.</p><p>Iodine is niche, but it matters more than most people realise</p><p>Iodine is not a commodity that gets discussed every day, yet it plays an essential role in a surprisingly wide range of industries. The global market is relatively small at around <strong>40,000 metric tonnes</strong>, but demand is underpinned by applications that are difficult to replace.</p><p>The single biggest end market is <strong>human healthcare</strong>. In particular, iodine is heavily used in <strong>x-ray contrast media drugs</strong>. These are the agents used in CT scans and certain x-ray procedures when doctors need clearer imaging. That application alone accounts for roughly <strong>38% of the market</strong>.</p><p>Beyond that, iodine shows up in many places people barely think about:</p></div><ul> <li> <strong>Disinfectants</strong>, including the familiar brown antiseptic used on cuts and before surgery</li> <li> <strong>LCD screens</strong>, where iodine-based polarising film is used</li> <li> <strong>Nutrition</strong>, because iodine is needed in the diet to support thyroid function</li> <li> <strong>Pharmaceuticals</strong> and <strong>biocides</strong>, where it serves a range of specialised purposes</li> </ul><div> <p>So while iodine may be a niche market, it is tied to healthcare, technology and industrial applications that give it resilience. That is a useful backdrop for any producer looking to grow production over time.</p><p>How Iofina produces iodine</p><p>Iofina’s model is one of the more interesting parts of the business. Rather than mining iodine in the traditional sense, the company extracts it from <strong>briny water produced by the oil and gas industry</strong>.</p><p>This water is effectively a co-product, or waste stream, from oil and gas operations. In the right areas, it contains iodine in concentrations that can be extracted economically. Iofina builds plants to process that brine and recover the iodine.</p><p>At present, the company has <strong>eight iodine plants in operation</strong>, all located in <strong>Oklahoma</strong>. A <strong>ninth plant</strong> is under construction in the <strong>Permian Basin</strong>, spanning southwest Texas and southeast New Mexico, which is one of the most significant oil and gas regions in the world.</p><p>That approach gives the company a clear link between operational execution and growth. If it can continue identifying suitable brine streams and building plants at an attractive return, production can keep climbing.</p><p>From 500 metric tonnes to 1,000 metric tonnes</p><p>Over the last four to five years, Iofina has roughly doubled its production profile.</p><p>The business was producing about <strong>500 metric tonnes</strong> several years ago. Once the Permian plant comes online, management expects that to rise to around <strong>1,000 metric tonnes</strong>.</p><p>That is not a theoretical target. It has come from a concrete build-out programme:</p></div><ul> <li>Three plants built in three years</li> <li>A fourth, larger plant making it effectively four plants in four years</li> <li>A balance sheet that has remained in sound shape while growth has been funded by reinvesting profitability back into the business</li> </ul><div> <p>This matters because scaling production is often where smaller resource and speciality chemical companies stumble. Capital can become stretched, timelines can slip, and growth stories can get ahead of operating reality. What stands out here is that management’s strategy has been rooted in repeatable execution.</p><p>As Dr Tom Becker put it, the company has had a specific goal of increasing iodine production in a market that continues to grow, and the team has delivered against that plan.</p><p>The next goal: 2,000 metric tonnes in the next few years</p><p>Reaching 1,000 metric tonnes is not being treated as the finish line. It is being treated as the foundation for the next stage.</p><p>The vision now is to move towards <strong>2,000 metric tonnes</strong> over the next few years. To get there, Iofina is looking to increase the pace of plant development. In other words, not just building one plant a year, but building more frequently where the economics support it.</p><p>The Permian Basin project is a good illustration of that next phase. It is expected to produce around <strong>200 metric tonnes</strong> once fully online, making it a larger opportunity than some of the company’s previous builds.</p><p>If the company can continue replicating that model, its standing within the global iodine market changes meaningfully.</p><p>Why scale matters in the global iodine market</p><p>At current levels, Iofina accounts for about <strong>2.5% of global iodine production</strong>. Management sees a realistic path towards roughly <strong>5%</strong> over the next number of years.</p><p>That may not sound dramatic at first glance, but in a market of this size and specialisation, it is significant. Moving from a 2.5% player to something closer to 5% changes how the company is perceived by customers, suppliers and the wider market.</p></div>
