RareX (ASX: REE) chief executive officer James Durrant joins Small Caps to discuss the company's plan to significantly increase its niobium exposure with the acquisition of a district-scale project in Western Australia.
Already the holder of significant niobium and rare earths resources at its Cummins Range project in northern WA, RareX has now added six highly prospective tenements at the new Khaleesi project.
Khaleesi is located along strike from the rich Ponton Dyke, which has returned some of Australia’s best rare earth intersections.
RareX is already preparing to fast-track an exploration program which will target areas of elevated niobium within the project area.
Niobium is a critical metal that is considered rare and difficult to find. It is attracting growing interest around the world as new uses for its many unique capabilities are uncovered.
The global niobium market size was valued at $3.5 billion in 2022 and is tipped to reach $4.3 billion in 2028, with a CAGR of 3.78% during 2024-2030.
Niobium has been listed as a critical metal in many jurisdictions due to it being an essential component in many high-strength corrosion-resistant low-alloy (HSLA) steels and superalloys and because of its high supply risk; a single country, Brazil, is responsible for over 90% of global niobium production.
New technology uses for the metal are expected to drive market growth in coming years.

Anatara Lifesciences (ASX: ANR) executive chair Dr David Brookes joins Small Caps to discuss the progress of the company's trial of a potential treatment for the aptly named irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).
The company recently received the go-ahead to enrol patients for the second stage of its pivotal GaRP-IBS trial, which is to be conducted at 5 sites in Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane.
Anatara has received highly encouraging findings from Stage 1 of the GaRP-IBS clinical trial and Stage 2 of the trial will progress these promising developments to further efficacy claims .
Under the trial guidelines, participants will be randomly placed into two groups to take either the optimum dose of the GaRP product selected from Stage 1 or the placebo.
It is expected that each patient will take approximately three months to complete the trial, which involves a wash-out period and then 8 weeks on the product or placebo.
While IBS is a fairly common issue, with an estimated 5% to 10% of the world's population currently be suffering from the syndrome, many of those people may well be unaware of what the issue is.
April is annual IBS Awareness Month with the aim this year to help destigmatise the different types of syndrome people may be suffering.
Approximately 1 in 5 Australians experience the unpleasant symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) at some time.

Blackstone Minerals (ASX: BSX) managing director Scott Williamson joins Small Caps to discuss the strategy behind the company’s move to acquire a major Canadian nickel mining opportunity.
Under an option agreement with CaNickel Mining, Blackstone has agreed to make a cash payment of $1.3 million and to exercise an option to acquire 100% of the Wabowden project by making up to four staged payments.
Not only will the Wabowden nickel project in Manitoba provide a significant new mining venture, it will also provide Blackstone with a potential supplier of nickel to its refinery in Vietnam.
With a resource of 1.3 million tonnes of contained nickel, Wabowden, considered one of the most advanced nickel sulphide projects in North America, would substantially increase Blackstone’s global mineral resource as well as potentially providing the feed required for the Ta Khoa refinery, removing the company’s dependency on sourcing third-party feedstock.
Wabowden also ticks all the boxes when it comes to Blackstone’s “green” nickel ideals.

Lotus Resources (ASX: LOT) managing director Keith Bowes joins Small Caps to discuss the company’s restart definitive feasibility study for its Kayelekera uranium project in Malawi.
The company released the study findings last week and is now focused on fast-tracking engagements with nuclear energy utilities, arranging financing options and securing offtake deals to support the restart of the mine.
With an initial upfront capital cost of US$88 million, Kayelekera has been confirmed as one of the lowest capital cost projects of its kind in the world.
Other highlights of the study include a US$35.8 million upgrade in plant and infrastructure to improve project economics and process reliability.
Kayelekera is currently on care and maintenance since it ceased producing uranium in 2014.
A restart of the project is expected to result in an average production of 2.4 million pounds of uranium oxide per year for the first seven years of a 10-year mine life.

Egon Von Greyerz of Matterhorn Asset Management is predicting the biggest global economic bubble in history is just coming to an end and we are now entering a secular bear market for the world economy and for most asset classes such as stocks, bonds, property, private equity, and cash. According to Von Greyerz, the experiment of creating wealth by printing money and expanding credit will be revealed as the biggest fraud in economic history. In an attempt to stave off the inevitable central banks will print unlimited amounts of money. But this time it will fail. You can’t create prosperity by printing money and you can’t solve a debt problem by incurring more debt. Initially, we will see a collapse of most bubble assets as well as debt. After a period of hyperinflation, there will be a deflationary implosion of the financial system. The 100-year debasement of all currencies to zero will be completed in the next 5-6 years. Gold will play a major strategic role in coming years.
