Founder @durinmining. Automating drill rigs to accelerate mineral discovery. It's time to MINE!
I am excited to announce Durin! Durin is my plan to solve the biggest challenges in mining, discovering mineral deposits necessary for national security and clean energy in record time and cost efficiency.
Interesting
Thrilled to be supporting @tbc415 and the Mariana team as they build the integrated, software-driven mining champion that America needs to secure its industrial future. It's time to mine ⛏️ a16z.com/announcement/i…

California should flourish. But right now, our cost of living is insane, wildfires rage, homelessness is everywhere, and red tape chokes our ability to solve any of it. I’m 6th generation Californian Dick Lucas and I’m running for State Assembly to unshackle California.

Well done to the MP Materials team. Transformational deal and critical to securing rare earth magnet supply for DoD. Funding, price floor, guaranteed offtake. 3 techniques needed to counter Chinese production.

Someone is upset he wasn't the 3rd or 4th check into Rainmaker
Cloud seeding in populated areas seems risky. I do wonder if we should be doing this kind of thing at all.
To those not familiar with @RainmakerCorp or @ADoricko let me fill you in. Augustus is one of the most upstanding and high integrity people I know. He/they would never do anything to harm people and his word is trustworthy. Do not fall for the fearmongering. Augustus is a…
The natural disaster in the Texan Hill Country is a tragedy. My prayers are with Texas. Rainmaker did not operate in the affected area on the 3rd or 4th or contribute to the floods that occurred over the region. Rainmaker will always be fully transparent.
The value of drilling
How 1 drill hole can change everything: • Confirms grade • Expands tonnage • Adds hundreds of millions in value • Unlocks institutional attention The market doesn't need maybes. It wants proof.
If the wolves come out of the walls, its all over. A large trading house offering structured credit facilities for the Americas sounds more like: "I will prey on pre-production pain" debt-trap financing with a sharp macro view, rather than benefaction to building the western…
Oil trader Vitol is getting into the mine finance game. The mining industry needs more capital flowing to Western projects, whether that's venture capital or petrodollars. Though the biggest gap is in exploration projects (unfort. not the focus here). bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
Tragic, idiotic, and needs to be reversed
Australia is de-industrialising because of net zero.
