Chris Temple: Fed’s “Dovish” Rate Hike, Bond Market Backlash & Energy-Driven Inflation: What Investors Need to Know
The Prospector News Michael Fox and Chris Temple of the National Investor break down the Fed’s latest quarter-point “dovish” rate hike, why Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent is losing credibility with bond market vigilantes, and how surging oil prices and global energy shocks are fueling inflation despite accommodative Fed policy. They compare today’s playbook to the Fed’s 1970s mistakes, assess the political crosswinds heading into the midterms and November elections, and explain why long-term Treasury yields near 5% reflect massive credit demand from the U.S. Treasury and tech giants—not just “strong U.S. credit.” Plus: what rising mortgage rates, regulatory headwinds, and commodity volatility mean for portfolios, and why the Fed remains the buyer of last resort even as it warns on inflation.

Wes Adams: Visionary Metals CEO on Wyoming’s First Nickel Sulfide Discovery, 2026 Drill Strategy & $6M War Chest
Wes Adams, President and CEO of Visionary Metals (TSX-V: VIZ), joins Michael Fox on the Prospector Podcast to break down Visionary’s 2026 drill campaign across its King Solomon and Tin Cup nickel–copper projects in Wyoming—the site of the state’s first nickel sulfide discovery in 2022 (44 m incl. 17 m @ 0.4% Ni). Adams outlines an airborne and ground survey–led program targeting eight conductive bodies (three at King Solomon, five at the larger Tin Cup targets), with drilling already underway at King Solomon before shifting to Tin Cup and returning to finish at King Solomon ahead of winter. He also details Visionary’s strategic alliance with Tech Resources (70% earn‑in via $6M/project in development drilling), a $250,000 Wyoming state grant supporting expanded target testing, and the company’s strong balance sheet after a $7.5M June 2026 raise (~$6M cash, ~12 months runway), while flagging the high‑grade Slipstream porphyry Cu‑Au project in Utah for 2027 drilling.Follow Visionary Metalshttps://visionarymetalscorp.com/

Hugh Broadhurst: Aclara Resources Building a Western Heavy Rare Earths Supply Chain | EV Magnets, Dysprosium & Terbium
Michael Fox sits down with Hugh Broadhurst, COO of AclaraResources (TSX:ARA), to unpack how Aclara is developing two ionic‑clay heavy rare earth mines in South America and pairing them with a vertically integrated separation, metals and alloys hub in Louisiana to supply critical inputs for EV motors, wind turbines and advanced magnets. Hugh explains why heavy rare earths like dysprosium and terbium are essential for high‑temperature magnet performance, why China's ~99% control of Dy/Tb stems from processingdominance rather than mining alone, and how Aclara's proprietary chloride‑based separation and planned 2027–2028 Louisiana facility aim to deliver a secure, non‑Chinese source of these elements. The conversation also covers deposit‑specific processing challenges, the role of EXIM Bank financing, and the broader push to reindustrialize North America's critical mineral supply chains.

Ross Orr: Turning Mining Tailings into Valuable Products with BacTech Bioleaching Technology
In this episode of The Prospector Podcast, Michael Fox speaks with Ross Orr, President and CEO of BacTech Environmental (CSE:BAC) (OTCQB:BCCEF), about the company’s commercial bioleaching technology and its potential to transform mining waste into valuable products. Ross discusses BacTech’s Kazakhstan opportunity, the planned Ecuador facility, potential projects in Peru, and the Zero Tailings process being piloted in Sudbury, Ontario. The conversation explores how bacterial oxidation can recover gold, silver, copper, nickel and cobalt while converting iron and sulfur from legacy tailings into marketable products such as magnetite, sulfuric acid and fertilizer. They also discuss environmental remediation, arsenic-bearing concentrates, uranium-sector applications, project timelines, licensing opportunities and BacTech’s global growth strategy. This interview includes forward-looking statements; viewers should conduct their own research and due diligence.

Chris Temple: Trump’s Fed Ultimatum, AI Bubble Risks, Gold’s Monetary Role & US–Canada Trade Tensions
The Prospector News Michael Fox and Chris Temple of the National Investor kick off with travel plans for the Beaver Creek Precious Metals Conference before diving into President Trump’s September 4 threat to suspend trade with countries running surpluses against the U.S. unless the Federal Reserve cuts rates by the September 16 FOMC meeting—a move they warn could undermine the dollar’s reserve-currency status and destabilize Treasury markets. They unpack today’s economic volatility, from momentum-driven illiquidity in gold and AI stocks to the risk that a Republican midterm loss becomes a market sell signal, and examine how up to $3 trillion in off-balance-sheet “shadow” debt tied to AI could trigger forced selling and a broader correction if the bubble bursts. The conversation then turns to escalating global conflicts in the Middle East and Russia–Ukraine, strained US–Canada trade relations under Trump’s tariff and energy policies, and why traditional valuation frameworks are failing in a rate-, trade-, and war-driven regime. Wrapping up, they assess gold’s unique monetary attributes amid central bank repatriation, preview the critical September 15–16 Fed meeting, and share details on upcoming events in Beaver Creek (Sept 22–25) and Minneapolis’ “Better in Our Backyards” (Sept 29–Oct 2).

Dr. Dave Lawie: Critical Materials Gap, Mining R&D & Copper Tech Breakthroughs
Michael Fox and Dr. Dave Lawie chief Geoscientist at Imdex unpack the widening gap between today’s critical materials reality and government ambitions, spotlighting the resurgence of industrial policy as the U.S., Canada and Argentina lead new mining capex while red‑green tape and federal–state tensions (e.g., Minnesota nickel) slow progress. They reveal mining’s innovation deficit—only ~1% of revenue to R&D versus other sectors—and explore game‑changing technologies from eutectic solvents for e‑waste metals to Rio Tinto’s Nuton bio‑heap leach that can produce 99.99% copper cathode at the mine gate, potentially cutting smelting, water use and emissions but unlikely to transform supply within five years amid workforce and capital constraints. With AI and data centers driving copper and zinc demand and inflation squeezing project economics, the duo assesses how loans, guarantees and allied industrial policies may bridge the gap—and what it means for investors, engineers and the next generation of mining talent.

Chris Temple: Fed Rate Hike Incoming? Warsh Signals September Move After Jackson Hole
Michael Fox and Chris Temple break down Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh’s pivotal Jackson Hole speech, where he reasserted his commitment to fighting inflation and all but guaranteed a 25 basis point rate hike at the September 16 FOMC meeting. They explore how Warsh’s hawkish pivot could trigger market volatility, push long-term yields higher, and even spark tension with the White House, while analyzing the delicate balance between cooling inflation and avoiding a recession. The duo also discusses Warsh’s focus on price stability for everyday consumers, the absence of any mention of crypto or alternative payments, and why a short-term rate increase may be necessary despite political headwinds. Tune in for their full take on what to expect from the Fed’s September decision.

NWT’s Mining Future: Minister Caitlin Cleveland on Critical Minerals, $40B Opportunities & Arctic Infrastructure
Northwest Territories Minister of Industry, Tourism and Investment Caitlin Cleveland outlines the territory’s strategic shift from diamond mining to critical minerals as major diamond operations—including Diavik and Ekati—wind down earlier than expected. She highlights the urgent need for new all‑season infrastructure like the Mackenzie Valley Highway and the GraYS Bay Road/Port, which together form the Arctic Economic and Security Corridor to link NWT’s mineral deposits to global markets. With over $40 billion in investment opportunities on the horizon, Cleveland stresses workforce re-skilling, early Indigenous partnership building, and the territory’s streamlined, co‑managed regulatory system as key advantages for advancing brownfield and greenfield projects in silver, zinc, tungsten, and rare earths.#NorthwestTerritories #CriticalMinerals #MiningCanada #ArcticInfrastructure #CaitlinCleveland #DiamondToCriticalMetals #MackenzieValleyHighway #GraysBay #ArcticEconomicAndSecurityCorridor #NWTMining #IndigenousPartnerships #WorkforceDevelopment #CanadianMining #ResourceSector #InvestInCanada
