Israel terus mempertimbangkan pilihan dan waktu serangan terhadap Iran setelah panggilan Biden-Netanyahu Berita

Israel terus mempertimbangkan pilihan dan waktu serangan terhadap Iran setelah panggilan Biden-Netanyahu

(SeaPRwire) - Rincian panggilan telepon antara Presiden Biden dan pada hari Rabu, di mana respons yang tertunda dari Yerusalem atas serangan Iran minggu lalu dibahas, tetap terbatas. Bacaan dari panggilan itu mencatat "komitmen besi" Biden terhadap keamanan Israel, menambahkan bahwa Biden "mengutuk dengan tegas serangan rudal balistik Iran terhadap Israel pada 1 Oktober." Sebelum bacaan itu, ketika ditanya tentang rincian diskusi tersebut, Wakil Presiden Kamala Harris – yang ikut dalam panggilan tersebut – mengatakan bahwa dia tidak dapat membahas "percakapan diplomatik pribadi," dan mengatakan kepada CNN bahwa itu adalah "panggilan penting."Sekretaris pers Gedung Putih Karine Jean-Pierre juga tidak banyak memberikan rincian, mengatakan bahwa keduanya "melanjutkan diskusi mereka tentang respons terhadap serangan Iran" dan bahwa itu adalah "percakapan yang jujur dan langsung."IRAN BERPOSISI UNTUK MENAKLUKKAN BASIS AS DI TELUK, PERINGATAN DARI MANTAN KOMANDAN CENTCOMSetelah serangan dari Teheran, di mana lebih dari 180 rudal yang ditembakkan ke sana, Netanyahu bersumpah untuk membuat Iran "membayar," yang langsung memicu spekulasi tentang seperti apa serangan balik itu.Tidak ada korban yang dilaporkan di Israel, meskipun seorang warga Palestina tewas di Tepi Barat, dan Biden telah mendesak Netanyahu untuk tidak mengeluarkan apa pun selain serangan balik yang "proporsional." Namun, spekulasi telah meningkat tentang jenis serangan yang dapat dilakukan Israel terhadap Iran, dan analis keamanan telah mulai meninjau pilihan serangan yang berkisar dari menyerang situs militer, infrastruktur penting bagi rezim Iran seperti kilang minyak dan pelabuhan, hingga bahkan serangan terhadap Menurut penilaian oleh Foundation for Defense of Democracies (FDD), Iran memiliki lebih dari selusin instalasi nuklir di seluruh negeri, termasuk tambang uranium, pabrik pengayaan bahan bakar, reaktor dan pabrik produksi air berat, serta beberapa fasilitas persenjataan – yang semuanya dapat menjadi sasaran Israel. Namun, AS telah memperingatkan perdana menteri Israel atau fasilitas minyak karena kekhawatiran bahwa hal itu dapat memicu perang regional. Setelah serangan Iran pada bulan April, di mana Iran melancarkan sekitar 300 rudal dan drone ke Israel, Yerusalem menanggapi seruan Barat untuk menahan diri dengan menyerang pertahanan udara Iran dan menghancurkan sebagian sistem pertahanan udara jarak jauh S-300.Namun, serangan presisi, yang tampak teredam dibandingkan dengan peluncuran rudal yang dilancarkan oleh Iran, kemungkinan mengirimkan pesan yang keras kepada Teheran setelah Israel berhasil menyerang salah satu sistem pertahanan Iran yang paling didambakan, yang secara strategis ditempatkan di antara situs nuklirnya.Sistem S-300 secara permanen ditempatkan di Pangkalan Udara Isfahan, hanya 60 mil selatan dari pabrik pengayaan Natanz dan kurang dari 10 mil utara dari Pusat Teknologi Nuklir Isfahan, dua situs yang konon berada di jantung program nuklir Iran, oleh Center for Strategic and International Studies.Namun, bahkan mengingat pentingnya serangan sebelumnya, satu ahli menduga respons Yerusalem kali ini akan lebih "publik," bahkan ketika Israel terus bertengkar dengan sekutu terbesarnya, AS."Tidak diketahui target apa, atau dalam urutan apa, atau dengan tujuan politik atau militer apa yang tepat, Israel mungkin memilih untuk menyerang balik Republik Islam," ahli tentang masalah keamanan Iran-Israel dan rekan senior di FDD, Behnam Ben Taleblu, mengatakan kepada Digital. "Yang tampaknya pasti, bagaimanapun, adalah bahwa Israel bermaksud untuk membalas tembakan dan kemungkinan dengan cara yang lebih besar dan lebih publik daripada yang dilakukannya pada bulan April," katanya, menambahkan bahwa kemungkinan Israel kembali mengejar kemampuan pertahanan udara dan rudal Iran. Ketegangan antara AS dan Israel telah muncul selama berbulan-bulan atas meningkatnya kekhawatiran tentang jumlah kematian warga sipil di Jalur Gaza, dan laporan menyebutkan bulan lalu bahwa AS dibiarkan dalam kegelapan atas operasi pager Israel yang diduga terhadap Hizbullah pada akhir September di mana sekitar tiga lusin teroris terbunuh dan 3.000 lainnya terluka.Selain itu, Washington dengan keras memperingatkan Israel terhadap setiap serangan darat ke Lebanon, meskipun Yerusalem mengabaikan seruan internasional untuk meredakan pertempuran dan berpendapat bahwa operasinya terhadap Hizbullah diperlukan untuk memastikan kembalinya 60.000 warga negara yang terpaksa mengungsi dari rumah mereka di dekat perbatasan. Terlepas dari keberatan AS atas serangan darat di Lebanon, AS untuk membela Israel dengan lebih baik menjelang serangan Iran. Pertanyaan tentang bagaimana AS akan mendukung atau menanggapi serangan Israel terhadap Iran tetap tidak jelas seperti jenis serangan balasan yang akan diluncurkan Yerusalem ke Iran. Menteri Pertahanan Israel Yoav Gallant pada hari Rabu mengeluarkan peringatan yang suram kepada Iran dan mengatakan, "Serangan kami akan kuat, tepat, dan yang terpenting – mengejutkan. Mereka tidak akan mengerti apa yang terjadi dan bagaimana hal itu terjadi."Ben Taleblu mengatakan keputusan Israel mendatang tentang apa yang akan diserang akan "memberi tahu analis banyak hal jika Israel membayangkan ini sebagai operasi versus kampanye," serta berfungsi sebagai indikator tentang seberapa terlibat pemerintahan Biden dalam serangan balik tersebut. "Perencana militer Israel, menurut perkiraan saya, kemungkinan akan mengeksplorasi pilihan yang memungkinkan mereka untuk melakukan sebanyak mungkin kerusakan sambil menjaga AS tetap berada di pihak mereka," katanya. "Tetapi kemampuan Israel untuk menandakan kerentanan perusahaan senjata nuklir Teheran melalui cara lain yang lebih kreatif tidak boleh diremehkan."Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Bhd. (“ConTeh”) to acquire in aggregate 175,896,000 ordinary shares in LPI Capital Bhd (“LPI”), representing approximately 44.15% equity interest in LPI, for a total cash consideration of RM1.72 billion (“Proposed Acquisition”).LPI, a company listed on the Main Market of Bursa Malaysia, has been in operations for over 60 years and is mainly involved in the underwriting of general insurance. It currently has 21 branches throughout Malaysia, 1 branch in Singapore and also operates in Cambodia through an associate company.Speaking at the press conference after the SPA signing ceremony, Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Tay Ah Lek, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer of Public Bank said, “The Proposed Acquisition represents a strategic opportunity for Public Bank to further expand its general insurance segment into the Malaysian market through the LPI Group. This will allow the enlarged Public Bank Group to establish an immediate market presence and strong foothold in the general insurance segment in Malaysia as a comprehensive complementary service to its current financial services and Family Takaful offerings.”He further added that, “The Proposed Acquisition is also in line with our Group’s plans to expand beyond just organic growth but through strategic acquisitions to expand our product and service offerings as evident by our recent completion of the acquisition of Public Bank Securities Vietnam Company Limited which allowed our Group to expand our financial services offering in Vietnam with the inclusion of securities trading services.”Tan Sri Tay concluded by saying, “This strategic acquisition of LPI Group, a long-established and leading general insurance player in Malaysia, represents a clear and unique opportunity for us to accelerate our vision to move towards a “Universal Banking Model” that offers comprehensive and diverse range of financial and other related products and services under the same group.With our existing network of over 260 branches located throughout the country, LPI Group would be able to leverage and expand its distribution channels and further grow its general insurance business in Malaysia.

Should the Proposed Acquisition be approved at the EGM, Public Bank will be obliged to extend an unconditional mandatory take-over offer (“MGO”) (“Proposed Offer”) for the remaining equity interest in LPI not already owned by it.It is pertinent to note that Public Bank has received the approval from the Ministry of Finance and Bank Negara Malaysia for the Proposed Acquisition and is expected to complete this corporate exercise in the 1st quarter of 2025.Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the Proposed Acquisition is expected to be value accretive and contribute positively to the future earnings of the Public Bank Group.At the same press conference, Teh Li Shian Diona, the youngest daughter of the late Tan Sri Dato’ Sri Dr. Teh Hong Piow also announced that the Estate and ConTeh intends to undertake a restricted offer for sale (“ROFS”) of a portion of their Public Bank Shares, progressively over a 5-year period and will be in compliance with the Financial Services Act.Diona Teh said, “My father often said that the success of Public Bank was not his alone – it is built on the trust and loyalty of its shareholders and the relentless commitment of its employees, or as he would like to call them his “corporate family”.“To honour his legacy and to show our deep appreciation and gratitude, we will be undertaking an exercise to distribute a portion of our Public Bank shares at a discount to all employees, directors and eligible shareholders of the Public Bank Group. This initiative aims to ensure that Public Bank remains in the hands of those who have nurtured its growth and success over the years, enabling us to continue building our legacy together.”She further added that, “Although we will be streamlining our stake, I would like to take this opportunity to reiterate our firm and unwavering commitment to continue as the major shareholders of Public Bank. This is not just a role or title for us – it is an honour and a responsibility that we deeply cherish. We are devoted to upholding my father’s legacy and continuing the stewardship of this esteemed institution.”“For this, we are deeply grateful to Bank Negara Malaysia and the Ministry of Finance for their trust in us by granting us the approval to continue helming Public Bank. With their support, we will perform our utmost best to lead Public Bank with the same passion, integrity, and vision that has defined the PBB group thus far.”Issued By: Swan Consultancy Sdn.

Lexus Introduces Enhancements to the LX Series and the All-New LX 700h Featuring a Newly Developed Advanced Hybrid System JCN Newswire

Lexus Introduces Enhancements to the LX Series and the All-New LX 700h Featuring a Newly Developed Advanced Hybrid System

TOKYO, Oct 10, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Lexus brings new enhancements to the LX and introduces the LX 700h, featuring the brand's newly developed hybrid system, which was announced on October 10th. A phased rollout across various regions is scheduled to begin in late 2024.Since its founding in 1989, Lexus has consistently upheld a spirit of innovation, continually striving to provide customers with new technologies and value. With the aim of achieving a carbon-neutral society and the desire to enrich automotive lifestyles with one's car, we will continue to provide a diverse range of options to meet the needs of customers around the world.The LX is a flagship SUV based on the concept of "effortless and refined driving on any road around the world." It combines driving performance that can handle any road in the world, while still providing the signature refined comfort of a Lexus. It is now beloved by customers in over 50 countries across the globe.At the same time, it was also the only model in the Lexus lineup that did not have an electrified vehicle option.Introducing the LX 700h, Lexus has developed a new parallel hybrid system that prioritizes preserving the "reliability," "durability," and "off-road performance" that the LX series has cultivated over generations, even amidst the shift to electrification. By utilizing motor torque to achieve the signature Lexus driving experience, annual CO2 emissions across all global vehicles will be significantly reduced, further improving environmental performance.Lexus has further refined its distinctive Lexus Driving Signature by enhancing the core fundamentals, including the engine model. The "engaging driving dialogue" that reacts instantly to driver inputs has been further refined while the vehicle has been upgraded with the latest Lexus Safety System + (LSS+) for enhanced safety and peace of mind.To further meet the diverse needs of our global customers, we have added the new OVERTRAIL series. With the early launch of the GX and NX OVERTRAIL models, we will continue to expand the lineup of the LEXUS OVERTRAIL PROJECT.Takami Yokoo, Lexus International Chief EngineerIn 2021, the LX underwent a full model change based on the concept of "effortless and refined driving on any road," earning widespread acclaim from customers worldwide, for which we are sincerely grateful. However, it posed a challenge within the Lexus lineup, as it remained the only model without an electrified option―despite our commitment to achieving a carbon-neutral society. For those of us who have been deeply involved with the LX over the years, electrifying it for use in demanding global environments seemed both an immense challenge and a long-held aspiration.During development, we were determined in our commitment not to compromise the reliability, durability, and off-road performance that has defined previous LX models, even with electrification. Our goal was to ensure safe, reliable operation, allowing customers to return home safely, while preserving the true Lexus driving experience. The solution we reached, as a unified development team, was the development of a new parallel hybrid system along with upgrades to the GA-F platform.Three years after the release of the gasoline and diesel models, we have further refined the Lexus Driving Signature, while enhancing both safety and comfort features. Our extensive ongoing driving flavor refinements have been fully integrated into the HEV models, elevating the "engaging driving dialogue" with the car.

Wanita Kanada Didakwa Membunuh 3 Orang dalam 3 Hari, Dilabeli Pembunuh Berantai Berita

Wanita Kanada Didakwa Membunuh 3 Orang dalam 3 Hari, Dilabeli Pembunuh Berantai

(SeaPRwire) - Seorang wanita yang dituduh membunuh tiga orang dalam rentang beberapa hari dalam pembunuhan terpisah telah ditangkap, kata pihak berwenang minggu ini sebelum mencapnya sebagai pembunuh berantai. Sabrina Kauldhar, 30, ditangkap di sebuah hotel di Burlington, Ontario, setelah pembunuhan seorang wanita dan dua pria di sekitar wilayah Toronto, kata Layanan Kepolisian Regional Niagara pada hari Jumat."Saya pikir menurut definisi dia adalah pembunuh berantai," kata Kepala Kepolisian Regional Niagara Bill Fordy kepada wartawan pada konferensi pers. "Dua atau lebih pelanggaran, jadi menurut definisi, saya pikir itu adalah komentar yang adil."Serangan pembunuhan Kauldhar yang diduga dimulai pada 1 Oktober ketika pihak berwenang di Toronto merespons dan menemukan seorang wanita berusia 60-an tewas di dalam rumah. Keesokan harinya, penanggap pertama dipanggil ke keributan di John Allan Park di Niagara Falls.Ketika mereka tiba, mereka menemukan seorang pria dengan luka kritis. "Terlepas dari upaya intervensi medis oleh Layanan Medis Darurat Niagara dan Dinas Pemadam Kebakaran Niagara Falls, Lance Cunningham yang berusia 47 tahun meninggal di tempat kejadian," kata pernyataan Layanan Kepolisian Regional Niagara. Pembunuhan ketiga terjadi pada 3 Oktober. Seorang pria ditemukan tertusuk di tempat parkir di Hamilton, pinggiran kota Toronto. Korban, yang diidentifikasi sebagai Mario Bilich berusia 77 tahun, seorang guru pensiun, dilarikan ke rumah sakit tempat dia kemudian meninggal. "Penyelidik dapat menghubungkan pembunuhan Hamilton dengan pembunuhan baru-baru ini di John Allen Park di Niagara Falls, menentukan bahwa tersangka cocok dengan deskripsi dalam kedua kasus tersebut," kata polisi. "Hubungan tambahan dibuat dengan penyelidikan pembunuhan aktif dari 1 Oktober di Toronto." Penyelidik mengatakan Cunningham dan Bilich menjadi target acak tetapi korban Toronto dikenal oleh tersangka. Pihak berwenang kemudian mengidentifikasi korban pembunuhan Toronto tetapi belum mengungkapkan namanya untuk umum. Kauldhar didakwa dengan pembunuhan tingkat pertama untuk pembunuhan Hamilton dan untuk pembunuhan Toronto dan Niagara, kata polisi.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Korea Utara Bersumpah untuk Memblokir Perbatasan dengan Korea Selatan dan Membangun Struktur Pertahanan Garis Depan Berita

Korea Utara Bersumpah untuk Memblokir Perbatasan dengan Korea Selatan dan Membangun Struktur Pertahanan Garis Depan

(SeaPRwire) - mengatakan pada hari Rabu bahwa mereka akan secara permanen memblokir perbatasannya dengan Korea Selatan dan membangun struktur pertahanan garis depan untuk mengatasi "histeria konfrontasi" oleh pasukan Korea Selatan dan Amerika Serikat, sementara tidak mengumumkan revisi konstitusi yang diharapkan untuk secara resmi menunjuk Korea Selatan sebagai musuh utamanya dan mengkodifikasi perbatasan nasional baru.Meskipun langkah-langkah tersebut kemungkinan merupakan taktik tekanan, tidak jelas bagaimana pengaruhnya terhadap hubungan dengan Korea Selatan karena perjalanan lintas batas dan pertukaran telah dihentikan selama bertahun-tahun.Militer Korea Utara mengatakan akan "menutup jalan dan jalur kereta api sepenuhnya" yang terhubung dengan Korea Selatan dan "memperkuat area terkait di pihak kami dengan struktur pertahanan yang kuat," menurut Badan Berita Pusat Korea Utara (KCNA).Militer Korea Utara menyebut langkah-langkahnya sebagai "tindakan pertahanan diri untuk menghambat perang dan mempertahankan keamanan" Korea Utara. Dikatakan bahwa "pasukan musuh semakin berani dalam histeria konfrontasi mereka." Mereka mengutip apa yang disebut mereka sebagai berbagai latihan perang di Korea Selatan, penyebaran aset strategis Amerika Serikat, dan retorika keras para saingannya.Militer Korea Selatan mengatakan kemudian pada hari Rabu bahwa mereka tidak akan mentolerir upaya apa pun oleh Korea Utara untuk mengubah status quo. Mereka mengatakan Korea Selatan akan "menghukum secara luar biasa" Korea Utara jika mereka melancarkan provokasi. Sebuah pernyataan militer Korea Selatan mengatakan program nuklir dan rudal Korea Utara telah mengancam perdamaian di Semenanjung Korea.Pejabat Korea Selatan sebelumnya mengatakan Korea Utara telah menambahkan penghalang anti-tank dan memperkuat jalan di sisi perbatasannya sejak April dalam upaya yang mungkin untuk meningkatkan postur keamanan garis depannya dan mencegah tentara dan warga negaranya membelot ke Korea Selatan. Dalam sebuah laporan kepada parlemen pada hari Selasa, Kementerian Unifikasi Korea Selatan mengatakan bahwa Korea Utara telah melepaskan ikatan di sisi utara jalur kereta api lintas batas dan lampu di dekatnya dan menanam ranjau di sepanjang perbatasan.KCNA sebelumnya pada hari Rabu mengatakan Majelis Rakyat Tertinggi bertemu selama dua hari minggu ini untuk mengubah usia hukum warga Korea Utara untuk bekerja dan berpartisipasi dalam pemilihan. Tetapi tidak mengatakan apakah pertemuan tersebut membahas perintah pada bulan Januari untuk menulis ulang konstitusi untuk menghapus tujuan penyatuan Korea yang damai, secara resmi menunjuk Korea Selatan sebagai "musuh utama yang tak terubah" negara itu dan mendefinisikan wilayah kedaulatan dan teritorial Korea Utara.Di tengah perhatian luar adalah apakah Korea Utara membuat klaim hukum baru atas perairan yang saat ini di lepas pantai barat mereka. Batas laut barat yang ditandai dengan buruk adalah tempat tiga pertempuran laut berdarah dan dua serangan mematikan yang dipersalahkan pada Korea Utara terjadi dalam 25 tahun terakhir.Beberapa ahli mengatakan Korea Utara mungkin telah menunda revisi konstitusi tetapi yang lain berspekulasi bahwa mereka telah mengubah konstitusi tanpa mengumumkannya karena sensitivitasnya.Perintah Kim mengejutkan banyak pengamat Korea Utara karena dianggap sebagai pemutusan dengan impian lama para pendahulunya untuk mencapai Korea yang bersatu dengan syarat Korea Utara. Para ahli mengatakan Kim kemungkinan bertujuan untuk mengurangi suara Korea Selatan dalam kebuntuan nuklir regional dan mencari kesepakatan langsung dengan Amerika Serikat. Mereka mengatakan Kim juga kemungkinan berharap untuk mengurangi pengaruh budaya Korea Selatan dan memperkuat pemerintahannya di dalam negeri.Ketegangan di Semenanjung Korea berada pada titik tertinggi dalam beberapa tahun, dengan Korea Utara terus melakukan serangkaian uji senjata yang provokatif dan Korea Selatan dan Amerika Serikat memperluas latihan militer mereka. KCNA mengatakan Korea Utara pada hari Selasa menguji sistem artileri jarak jauh yang menurut pengamat menimbulkan ancaman langsung bagi Seoul, ibu kota Korea Selatan, yang hanya berjarak satu jam berkendara dari perbatasan.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Sejarah Hoxne Hoard, Koleksi Harta Karun Romawi Terbesar yang Ditemukan di Inggris Berita

Sejarah Hoxne Hoard, Koleksi Harta Karun Romawi Terbesar yang Ditemukan di Inggris

(SeaPRwire) - Hoxne Hoard adalah salah satu harta karun Romawi yang ditemukan di Inggris, bukan hanya karena nilainya, tetapi juga bagaimana harta karun itu ditemukan.Berbagai sumber mencatat Hoxne Hoard sebagai harta karun Romawi terbesar yang pernah ditemukan di Inggris. Koleksi harta karun ini sebagian besar terdiri dari koin emas dan perak, meskipun ada juga benda-benda lain, seperti peralatan makan dan perhiasan yang juga ditemukan.Bagaimana harta karun ini ditemukan menambah keunikannya.Pada 16 November 1992, Eric Lawes sedang menjelajahi sebuah ladang di desa Hoxne di Suffolk, bukan untuk mencari harta karun tersembunyi, tetapi hanya mencari palu yang hilang di lahan tersebut.Lawes sedang memindai area tersebut dengan detektor logamnya, ketika dia menemukan sebagian kecil harta karun dalam apa yang kemudian menjadi Hoxne Hoard.Setelah menyekop beberapa sendok perak dan koin emas yang dia temukan, dia segera melaporkan temuannya untuk digali dengan benar.Lawes dianugerahi £1,75 juta untuk temuannya, yang dia bagikan dengan petani yang memiliki lahan tempat harta karun itu ditemukan, menurut Smithsonian Magazine.Pada hari berikutnya, Layanan Arkeologi Dewan County Suffolk (SCCAS) berada di lokasi kejadian, menurut World History Encyclopedia.Bagian dari Hoxne Hoard beratnya sekitar 60 pon secara total, menurut Ancient Origins. Ada sekitar 15.000 koin Romawi sebagai bagian dari koleksi tersebut, menurut The British Museum, tempat banyak barang dipajang saat ini. Barang-barang tersebut dikuburkan pada abad ke-5 Masehi.Temuan unik lainnya termasuk perhiasan, seperti rantai tubuh, enam kalung, tiga cincin jari dan gelang emas, menurut sumber tersebut.Meskipun Hoxne Hoard sebagian besar terdiri dari koin, salah satu harta karun paling terkenal yang ditemukan adalah pot merica "Empress". Pot ini adalah salah satu dari empat yang digali dari situs tersebut, menurut The British Museum. Pot merica itu dibentuk dengan rumit untuk mewakili seorang wanita.Selain itu, ada banyak peralatan makan yang merupakan bagian dari harta karun tersebut, termasuk satu set 19 sendok, dalam kondisi baik, yang dihiasi dengan tema laut, menurut The British Museum.Para arkeolog percaya bahwa Hoxne Hoard dikuburkan tidak lebih lambat dari tahun 450 Masehi, menurut Ancient Origins.Pada akhir abad ke-4 Masehi, Kekaisaran Romawi Barat berada dalam ketidakpastian, dengan tentara Romawi meninggalkan Inggris, meninggalkan warga untuk mengurus diri mereka sendiri.Meskipun para ahli telah mengajukan berbagai hipotesis tentang mengapa harta karun itu dikuburkan, salah satu saran umum adalah bahwa hal itu dilakukan untuk perlindungan, dengan maksud pemiliknya mengumpulkan barang-barang berharga mereka lagi. Dalam kasus Hoxne Hoard, barang-barang tersebut tidak pernah diambil kembali oleh pemiliknya.Saat ini, Hoxne Hoard dipajang di The British Museum. Pameran ini berisi banyak koin, perhiasan, dan peralatan makan, serta palu Lawes, yang awalnya dia cari ketika dia menemukan penemuan yang jauh lebih penting.Artikel ini disediakan oleh penyedia konten pihak ketiga.

Empower your Heart Health with LAC This World Heart Day!

SINGAPORE, Oct 9, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - People often associate the matters of the heart with emotional experiences, but heart health is a critical aspect that often goes unnoticed until it is too late. Today, heart health is not only associated with high cholesterol levels and blood pressure. The difference in an individual’s ethnicity and lifestyle causes varying susceptibilities to cardiovascular diseases, further compounding the risk factors for heart health. In Singapore alone, cardiovascular diseases kill 1 out of every 3 people, a number that is not only shocking, but also worrying.While maintaining an active lifestyle and consuming healthy food are fundamental to improving the heart health of individuals, Singaporeans engaging in sufficient physical activity has decreased by nearly 10% since 2022. This lack of physical activity, coupled with increased stress levels and other socio-economic factors contribute to fat and plaque buildup in and around the heart and arteries, significantly increasing the risk of cardiovascular diseases.This World Heart Day on 29 September, LAC (pronounced as L-A-C) aims to support good heart health through LAC Activated® Heart Protect™.Heart attacks are typically caused by plaque build-up in the arteries, which restricts smooth blood flow to the heart and can eventually lead to blood clots. Alongside regular physical activity, LAC Activated® Heart Protect™ can support heart health. Formulated with Nattokinase, a powerful enzyme with anti-clotting properties, it helps to prevent blood clots and promote better circulation.In addition, the LAC Activated® Heart Protect™ also contains Hawthorn and Lecithin, which work together to manage cholesterol levels and promote healthy blood circulation.

Toyota to Exhibit at Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2024 JCN Newswire

Toyota to Exhibit at Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2024

Toyota City, Japan, Oct 9, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Toyota Motor Corporation (Toyota) has announced today that it will exhibit at Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2024, to be held at Makuhari Messe in Chiba Prefecture from Tuesday, October 15 to Friday, October 18.Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2024 is an event where the mobility industry and startups that will lead the next generation interact to co-create toward the shared goal of a sustainable future. At the event, Toyota will exhibit technology related to carbon neutrality from among its various sustainability initiatives.For Japan, a country with limited land and resources, "energy policy" is a significant challenge for both the nation and its industries. Given this situation, it is crucial for the mobility sector, which has a broad base and operates in the B to C market, to act as a pacesetter, fostering collaboration across the entire industry.In pursuit of achieving carbon neutrality through a multi-pathway approach, Toyota will promote co-creation with startups and other companies in the areas of 1) initiatives towards realizing a hydrogen society and 2) renewable energy management, both of which contribute to the stability of energy supply and the reduction of environmental impact. By fostering new partnerships and driving technological innovation, Toyota aims to strengthen its efforts to help create a sustainable future.The main exhibits will be as follows.1. Liquid hydrogen-powered GR CorollaToyota began racing with a hydrogen-powered Corolla running on gaseous hydrogen in 2021. Since 2023, it has been competing in endurance races in Japan and abroad using a liquid hydrogen-powered GR Corolla.The actual vehicle that has been competing in races will be on display at the JAMA joint exhibition booth, where Toyota will present its continued activities to refine cars and people through racing and to take on challenges and evolve together with partners in industry, government, and academia to achieve carbon neutrality.Liquid hydrogen-powered GR Corolla 2. Portable Hydrogen CartridgeToyota is working on research and development toward realizing a carbon-neutral society based on a multi-pathway approach with diverse viable energy options. Hydrogen is the ultimate clean energy that emits no CO2 during use, and CO2emissions can also be minimized during the production process when renewable energy sources such as wind and solar are used. Hydrogen can be used to generate electricity in fuel cell systems and can also be used as a combustion fuel.These portable hydrogen cartridges will be exhibited for the first time in Japan at this event. The technology Toyota has cultivated in the development of FCEVs is used to reduce the size and weight of hydrogen tanks, which were previously large and difficult to carry, to a size that can be carried by hand. They are designed to make hydrogen a familiar and safe energy source that can be used in a variety of everyday situations.Portable Hydrogen CartridgeA hydrogen-powered cooker developed together with Rinnai Corporation will also be exhibited as an example of hydrogen use, where hydrogen in portable cartridges is used for fuel cells to generate electricity or for cooking by combusting hydrogen gas in portable hydrogen cartridges.Through this exhibition, Toyota aims to find matches with the technologies and ideas of various companies and startups from a variety of perspectives, including both providing services and developing and selling devices using portable hydrogen cartridges. In doing so, Toyota will further strengthen its efforts to use portable hydrogen cartridges and help create a hydrogen society.3. Sweep Energy Storage SystemCreating a carbon-neutral society requires not only solving energy issues but also building a circular economy. Toyota emphasizes the circular economy in its car manufacturing as well, having long since worked on designs that minimize waste as well as the recycling and reuse of raw materials. In light of the rapid popularization of electrified vehicles in particular, including hybrid cars (HEVs), Toyota is carrying out initiatives such as developing resource-efficient and long-life batteries as well as reusing used batteries recovered from end-of-life electrified vehicles.The sweep energy storage system that will be exhibited at this event utilizes used batteries from electrified vehicles using Toyota's original sweep technology* for battery control. In this system, various types of used batteries with different degrees of deterioration can be reused to maximize each battery's remaining energy storage capacity. It will contribute to a stable supply of electricity and the spread of renewable energy in combination with solar, wind, and other renewable energy power generation systems, which tend to result in an unstable supply of electricity.Toyota has been conducting research and development on the sweep energy storage system together with JERA Corporation (JERA) since 2018. In 2022, the world's first large-capacity sweep energy storage system was installed at JERA's Yokkaichi Thermal Power Station for demonstration testing.Through the exhibition, Toyota aims to find matches with technologies and ideas that can improve the sweep energy storage system and allow more affordable and stable operation, such as traceability technology for used batteries and technology that can dramatically shorten and reduce battery replacement work. Toyota will contribute to carbon neutrality by building a circular economy to help create a sustainable future.*Technology to freely control the DC and AC charging and discharging of a series of batteries by rapidly switching them on and off in microseconds.Please visit the link below for more information on Japan Mobility Show Bizweek 2024. www.japan-mobility-show.com/en/ Copyright 2024 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Dhaka & Singapore, Oct 8, 2024 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Summit LNG Terminal II Co Ltd (“SLNG II”), a unit of Summit Group, has urged the Government of Bangladesh to reverse its decision to terminate the third Floating Storage and Regasification Unit (“FSRU”) project in the country.SLNG II said it had received a notice from the Bangladesh Oil, Gas & Mineral Corporation (“Petrobangla”) on 7 October notifying the termination of the project situated at Moheshkhali in Cox’s Bazar.The Moheshkhali terminal (“2nd FSRU”) in southeast Bangladesh is the second floating gas terminal project undertaken by Summit Group with a planned regasification capacity of 600 million standard cubic feet per day.In response to media queries, SLNG II wishes to clarify the following: 1) In late 2020, the Government of Bangladesh made a strategic decision to transition from coal-fired power generation to natural gas, a cleaner energy source. The initiative was also aimed at boosting gas supply to ensure energy security and support industrial growth. Summit Group submitted a proposal on 11 October 2021, to implement a FSRU on a Build, Own, Operate, and Transfer (BOOT) basis. The proposal was approved by the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs on 14 June 2023.The approval followed two years of extensive negotiations and consultations with international law firms to address the contractual and technical challenges.2) Summit, in collaboration with Petrobangla and Rupantarita Prakritik Gas Company Limited (“RPGCL”), finalized the Terminal Use Agreement (“TUA”) and Implementation Agreement (“IA”) on 12 October 2023. These were legally vetted and approved by the Cabinet Committee on 12 December 2023.3) SLNG II signed the TUA and IA on 30 March 2024 with Petrobangla and Government of Bangladesh (“GoB”) for the 2nd FSRU. On the same day SLNG II also signed a long-term Sale and Purchase Agreement (“SPA”) to supply 1.5 million tonnes of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) to Petrobangla, starting in October 2026.4) To fulfil the initial conditions precedent (“CPs”) of the agreements signed on 30 March 2024, SLNG II has to date committed investments of approximately USD 15 million to implement the 2nd FSRU.5) The termination notice received on 7 October 2024 was issued on the basis that the agreements signed on 30 March 2024 had not become effective as a performance bond was not submitted within 90 days as stipulated, i.e. on 28 June 2024. SLNG II said that as that date fell on a Friday (not a banking day in Bangladesh), the performance bond was delivered on the next possible working day, with acknowledgement by Petrobangla.6) SLNG II’s lawyers have confirmed that SLNG II had not breached any CPs of the agreements of 30 March 2024. Even if any CP was delayed, Petrobangla did not notify SLNG II within the agreed 30-day window and had therefore deemed the CP as accepted.“SLNG II is owned by Summit Power International Limited (“SPIL”), the largest private sector investor in energy in Bangladesh with a proven track record of developing long-term infrastructure projects in a responsible and transparent manner. SPIL has stated that our investments have helped to catalyse foreign direct investment (“FDI”) into Bangladesh. We respectfully urge the Government of Bangladesh to uphold the sanctity of contracts and to ensure that investors' rights are protected and treated fairly and equitably,” SPIL said.Media ContactWeR1 Consultants Pte LtdIsaac Tang and Shindy KaurWhatsApp (Text): (+65) 9748 0688summit@wer1.net Copyright 2024 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Fujitsu leverages data to secure stable and efficient power supply for Kansai Transmission and Distribution JCN Newswire

Fujitsu leverages data to secure stable and efficient power supply for Kansai Transmission and Distribution

TOKYO, Oct 9, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fujitsu today announced that it is developing a system based on “Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS” (1) to realize a stable and efficient power supply for Kansai Transmission and Distribution, Inc. The system will be launched in March 2025.As society confronts intensifying natural disasters, a declining labor population, and rising fuel costs, energy providers are facing challenges such as securing a stable supply of power in both regular and emergency situations, promoting the use of renewable energy, facility maintenance, and cost reduction.This system, currently being developed by Fujitsu, will utilize “Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS” to collect, store, and visualize data from Kansai Transmission and Distribution and support a stable and efficient power supply, making it possible to quickly detect and investigate equipment errors. In addition to this system, Fujitsu is working to increase energy resilience by assessing power usage data to calculate the effect of avoiding planned power outages through the utilization of remote amperage control, as Kansai Transmission and Distribution moves toward the full-scale implementation of next-generation smart meters (2). By leveraging data, the system enables analysis to be carried out from various perspectives (i.e., staff, manager, senior executive, etc.) thereby improving operations and accelerating decision-making.With this initiative, Fujitsu will support business transformation aimed at solving management issues using data and AI. In addition, Fujitsu plans to provide the electric power industry with new capabilities through its “Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS”, such as power demand forecasting and reduced-labor machine inspections using “Fujitsu Kozuchi”, its AI service from Mid-October 2024.Fujitsu’s initiatives at Kansai Transmission and Distribution:Rapid error detection and increased efficiency through the visualization of power usage data and error informationIn Japan, it has become increasingly common for private residences to generate their own electricity through solar power thanks in part to municipal government subsidies. At the same time, the number of skilled technicians is steadily decreasing year by year due to population aging. There is a heightened demand for energy companies to become more efficient in terms of how they inspect their business operations, including the operational status of equipment and power usage/generation measurements.Kansai Transmission and Distribution used “Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS” to collect data on power usage (30-minute increments) from electricity smart meters and linked and visualized equipment and construction work data with error data. This has made it possible for the company to efficiently detect signs of equipment failure using this linked information, instead of the conventional practice of receiving error detection, checking the details against multiple systems, and then dispatching staff to the site if necessary. Furthermore, by applying the results of field assignments to the “Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS” and collecting data, seeing and analyzing error trends becomes possible, and error extraction accuracy can be continuously improved. This system is based on a pilot developed by Fujitsu in June 2024 and the company is planning to deploy it for operation by March 2025.Figure 1: Diagram of the current vs. ideal situation of error detection servicesFigure 2: Error detection dashboard screen (3)Verifying the effectiveness of the amperage control capabilities of next-generation smart metersFujitsu verified the effectiveness of the remote amperage control capabilities of next-generation smart meters to achieve a stable and efficient power supply. Remote amperage control is expected to play a role in plans to replace planned power outages that are currently employed as a last resort when the balance between the supply and demand of power is not expected to recover.According to estimates by Japan’s Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) (4), avoiding planned power outages is expected to result in an economic benefit of approximately 135-150 billion yen over a ten-year period. The scheme requires the cooperation of consumers as they will need to reduce their power consumption to within the upper limit set on the remote amperage control unit in order to receive a steady power supply. To achieve this, energy providers, including Kansai Transmission and Distribution, must assess the impact that this initiative will have on users and calculate the optimal control values based on the amount of power that their supply capabilities will fall short by.In this verification, Fujitsu utilized “Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS” and developed a prototype application able to visualize the effects of reducing energy consumption while varying the adoption rate of next-generation smart meters and the upper limit amperage control values. This application is based on electricity usage data (30-minute increments) obtained from approximately 13 million smart meters already in use. Through this, Fujitsu was able to confirm the impact of the controls on whole areas at specific times of day more effectively, and ascertain specific time blocks where consumers will need to reduce their energy consumption and the impact of reductions. Securing data on actual seasonal patterns of electricity usage allowed for the targeted use of amperage control units which has the potential to reduce the impact of energy saving measures on the general public and clarify periods when other measures should be deployed, including those focused on companies and factories that use more electricity.Figure 3: Diagram of control values and suppression impactFigure 4: Remote amperage control simulation application screen(1) “Fujitsu Data Intelligence PaaS” :Fujitsu’s platform that is made up of three components, “Fujitsu Kozuchi”, Fujitsu’s AI service, “Fujitsu Track and Trust”, blockchain technology that enables the collection and traceability of data across companies and industries, and data infrastructure, such as “Palantir Foundry” and “Microsoft Azure”.(2) Next-generation smart meters :As the current electrical smart meters, which began to be used in 2014, start to reach the end of their operational lifespan, METI’s Agency for Natural Resources and Energy held a review committee for next-generation smart meter system from September 2020 to March 2022. In this review, experts and related parties in the industry studied the functions of the next-generation smart meters.(3) Applications built on “Palantir Foundry”. © Palantir Technologies Inc.(4) Estimates by METI: From the METI’s Agency for Natural Resources and Energy Review Committee’s summary of next-generation smart meter system review (published in May 2022).About FujitsuFujitsu’s purpose is to make the world more sustainable by building trust in society through innovation.

Three Kincora Partner Funded Drilling Programs Ramping Up

Partner funded programs support ~11,000 metres drill testing up to thirteen large-scale copper-gold porphyry targets before year-endDrilling commenced at the Nyngan Project with earn-in partner AngloGold Ashanti Australia (AngloGold Ashanti)New district-scale potential with initially up to eight large intrusive complex targets to be drill-tested for the first timeIncludes one existing high priority target covered by a Fleet Space Technologies Pty Ltd's (Fleet Space) Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) and gravity geophysical surveys with final interpretations pending6 to 8 drill holes for 4000-5000 metres planned before year endKincora is managing the program and will receive a 10% management feeFirst drilling program by Kincora in partnership with AngloGold AshantiNeighboring explorer drilling recommenced at the Duck Creek target adjacent to the Nyngan Project by Inflection Resources (Inflection) (in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti) following encouraging results, including intense hydrothermal alteration and sulphide mineralisation ~1.4km from license boundary 1Second phase drilling program commenced at the Cundumbul Project by Exploration Alliance partner Earth AI Pty Ltd (Earth AI) with step out diamond drilling5 drill holes for up to 3000 metres testing three targets scheduled to be drilled and reported before year endUp to $4.5m to be spent by Earth AI and up to 3% royalty earnt upon new drilling discovery (qualifying intersection), with Kincora retaining 100% project ownershipDrilling commenced at the Bronze Fox Project in Mongolia by Woomera Mining Limited (Woomera) testing the potential for a shallower higher-grade structural zone and resource expansion drilling coupled with a second mining license conversionApproximately 2250-3250 metres is planned before the winter year end breakIncludes a 900m deep hole stepping out testing the up dip and higher grade potential within an interpreted structural corridor to previous hole F62 which returned 929m @ 0.37% CuEq, including 318m @ 0.53% CuEq and 37m @ 1.01% CuEq 2Kincora is Woomera's largest shareholder and retains attractive asset level exposure to the Bronze Fox Project via an earn-in and joint venture agreementFurther value enhancing deals are proposed Review of new wholly owned Nevertire South Project confirms standout priority drill targetsDiscussions with potential technical and funding partners are progressingMelbourne, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - October 8, 2024) - Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) (Kincora or the Company) is pleased to provide an exploration update with partner funded drilling programs commencing across three of Kincora's portfolio of thirteen copper-gold projects and following a very favourable review of the newly secured Nevertire South Project.The ramping up of these programs marks an exciting transition point in the Company's strategy to create shareholder value through securing highly prospective projects in exploration and mining hotspots, executing deals with technical partners, securing partner funding to advance drilling and seeking to make globally significant discoveries.Sam Spring, President and CEO of Kincora commented: "Recent deals with four industry partners unlock up to $60 million of multi-year funding and we are transiting to a very exciting period with initial field activities now ramping up. These deals provide clear technical endorsement of, and value parameters for, these and our other wholly owned Kincora projects.Kincora shareholders now have immediate exposure to up to 11,000m of drilling before year-end across three projects and testing up to 13 large-scale porphyry targets.Kincora continues to seek to work with existing and new technical and funding partners to apply industry leading exploration techniques to systematically advance and de-risk our highly prospective large-scale project pipeline of porphyry targets.We are not finished. More deals, partnerships and projects with a clear value path are proposed.Our recent review of the new Nevertire South Project has been extremely positive supporting what we believe is the most attractive geologically supported target in the covered extensions of the Macquarie Arc. Other comparable earlier stage and higher risk projects have recently attracted five partner deals and potentially over $300m in exploration expenditure."Standout drill targets at the new Nevertire South Project(Macquarie Arc, Australia)Pegged as open ground, Kincora recently secured three bolt-on licenses covering a total of 1,377km2 (100% ownership), including the Nyngan West, Nyngan South and Nevertire South Projects. This creates a continuous north-south strike extent of over 100km of the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (NJNB), including the Nyngan and Nevertire Projects - see Figure 1.Of particular note was securing the Nevertire South Project (962km2), which consolidates the southern section of the Nevertire Magmatic Complex (NMC). Previous explorer drilling on the southern third of the NMC has returned anomalous mineralisation, favourable fertility, geochemical zonation and alteration confirming a copper-gold porphyry system setting with age dates confirming a prospective Phase 4 Macquarie Arc intrusive complex.Figure 1: Existing geophysics and limited drilling to date supports Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti's interpretation that the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt hosts the potential for multiple new composite volcanic and intrusive complexes with analogous aeromagnetic signatures and intrusive level cross arc structures to other Macquarie Arc porphyry complexes (eg Cadia, Cowal, Boda-Kaiser, Marsden etc) The Macquarie Arc is a proven Tier 1 terrane and Australia's foremost copper porphyry belt hosting a number of world-class mines in the southern, more exploration mature, of the Arc hosting over 160Moz gold equivalent endowmentTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/225944_figure1.jpgKincora has recently secured three prior Newcrest drill holes from the Cadia mine site for the Nevertire South Project. Relogging of these holes has been undertaken by Kincora's Technical Director, John Holliday, significantly upgrading the Project.The review of these holes, we believe the first since that of Newcrest's in 2006-09, supports Newcrest's previous view that its limited drilling "has identified lithologies, alteration and veining consistent with a setting similar to the Cadia-Ridgeway and Goonumbla porphyry Cu-Au deposits" 3.Subsequent age dates have confirmed an analogous setting to the Cadia and Northparkes/ Goonumbla deposits. Kincora's review confirms that the best of these prior holes (ACDNY006) has not been followed up despite a very encouraging intersection of anomalous copper mineralisation (from basement to end of hole), veining and magnetite alteration situated in a highly prospective high volcanic-hosted level.In Kincora's view this supports Nevertire South being the most advanced porphyry project and most attractive geologically supported target in the covered northern extension of the Macquarie Arc, and noting an untested strike for over 8km from these favorable prior drill results within the NMC. A priority drill program has been designed, including the ambition to either discover or create a vectoring pattern to a possible deposit stepping out from ACDNY006.Earlier stage targets in the Macquarie Arc have recently attracted five major earn-in/option and joint venture agreements supporting potentially over $300 million in exploration and development expenditure, including the recent option and joint venture agreements between Gold Fields and privately owned Gold & Copper Resources 4.Discussions with potential technical and funding partners are progressing.For further details and technical disclosures refer to the following Kincora release:September 9th, 2024, "Kincora Secures New Strategic Ground On Australia's Premier Porphyry Copper-Gold Province"AngloGold Ashanti earn-in and joint venture agreement for the Nyngan and Nevertire Projects(Macquarie Arc, Australia)The Nyngan Project was the first ground Kincora secured in NSW with regional geophysics strongly indicating the potential to hosts the largest volcano-intrusive complex of the Macquarie Arc (existing metal endowment of over 160Moz gold equivalent 5) and offering a new district-scale setting. Limited prior drilling activities have taken place, and are confined to the southern portion of the Project.In May 2024, Kincora signed a definitive multiple-phase Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreement over the Nyngan and Nevertire licences with a wholly owned subsidiary of AngloGold Ashanti plc (NYSE: AU), the world's fourth largest gold miner by production, which has a successful track record for Greenfields discovery success.AngloGold Ashanti has the right to spend up to A$50 million to earn an 80% interest through:A$25 million of exploration expenditure to earn a 70% joint venture interest (Phase I) including a minimum A$2 million expenditure obligation, with Kincora the initial operator for a 10% management fee.Completion of a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) or funding of a further $25 million of expenditure to earn an 80% joint venture interest (Phase II). Figure 2: Fleet Space's ANT and gravity surveys have covered a regionally significant priority drill target previously and separately identified by Kincora, AngloGold Ashanti and Fleet Space within the northern "Ace of Spades" region of the Nyngan Project. This target is to be very shortly drill tested as part of the first ever copper-gold focused drilling program within this region. As part of a permitted drill program for up to 16 holes, a 6 to 8-hole for an estimated 4000-5000m program is budgeted before year-end with earn-in partner AngloGold AshantiKincora and Inflection's recent real-time Fleet Space ANT surveys have generated a number of new, previously unrecognised potential target areas that are currently being reviewedTo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/225944_figure%202.jpgThe mobilised drilling program is focused within the northern portion of the Nyngan Project and the "Ace of Spades" region testing a wide range of untested, large intrusive-related copper-gold targets - see Figure 2.The program will comprise cost-effective mud-rotary drilling through the post mineral cover sequence with diamond core drilling upon refusal and testing of the targeted basement. The program seeks to confirm the potential for a series of new Macquarie Arc intrusive complexes and provide vectors for follow up drilling.Kincora notes neighbouring explorer drilling by Inflection has just recommenced at the Duck Creek target adjacent to the Nyngan Project (also in partnership with AngloGold Ashanti). This follows encouraging results, including intense hydrothermal alteration and sulphide mineralisation ~1.4km from license boundary in hole DCKDH020 1 - see Figure 2.Inflection has reported hole DCKDH020 returned a broad zone of elevated copper (max 788ppm) and arsenic values average 43.9ppm over a 448.5m interval (max 212ppm) noting these are "highly anomalous as 200m to 500m from the Cadia Ridgeway ore body (Newmont Corporation) reports arsenic in the 20ppm to 30ppm range and copper in the 200ppm to 300ppm range." DCKCDH020 is being followed up with a number of step-out drills to explore for a possible porphyry source for the alteration and geochemical data 1.For further details and technical disclosures refer to the following Kincora releases:August 14th, 2024, "Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti's First Drilling Program"May 28th, 2024, "AngloGold Ashanti to earn-in to the NJNB Project"Fleet Space proprietary geophysical partnership for the Nyngan Project(Macquarie Arc, Australia)Fleet Space was Australia's fastest growing company in 2023 6 and is widely recognised as Australia's leading space exploration company. Fleet Space seeks to revolutionise mineral exploration with its vertically integrated technology stack, ExoSphere, which combines the latest advances in satellite connectivity, 3D multiphysics data acquisition, and AI to map mineral systems in real-time.Kincora, in partnership with Fleet Space, has recently completed Fleet Space's first ever integration of Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) and ground gravity geophysical surveys within a portion of the "Ace of Spades" region of the Nyngan Project - see Figure 2.The surveys cover a regionally significant priority drill target previously and separately identified by Kincora, AngloGold Ashanti and Fleet Space, with final interpretations of the surveys pending.Within the immediate district Fleet Space has recently completed the world's largest real-time ANT copper survey with Inflection Resources, undertaken a total of four project level surveys (including for Waratah's Spur Project, Inflection's Duck Creek Project and Alkane's Boda-Kaiser deposits) and built a proprietary AI-powered district scale copper prospectivity map. The Fleet Space surveys complement Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti's earn-in and joint venture agreement and exploration approach.For further details and technical disclosures refer to the following Kincora releases:July 25th, 2024, "ANT and Gravity Geophysical Surveys at the Nyngan Project"Earth AI success based Exploration Alliance for the Cundumbul Project(Macquarie Arc, Australia)Earth AI is a private Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning explorer that has a vertically integrated approach to targeting, testing and verifying new critical mineral discoveries.Earth AI is the operator of the Exploration Alliance for the Cundumbul Project and has the right to contribute up to $4.5m of total exploration expenditure over a three-year period (having recently exercised an option for an additional year).Subject to a minimum of 1,500 metres of diamond drilling (already satisfied) and a Qualifying Drilling Intersection resulting in a new discovery (as defined within the Exploration Alliance Agreement), Earth AI is entitled to a Net Smelter Royalty (NSR) of up to 3% in connection with a to be agreed upon area surrounding the discovery (Area of Interest, size dependent on the extent of the newly discovered mineral system). Kincora retains 100% ownership of the Project.Field mapping, soil and rock chip sampling by Earth AI has identified a new 2.2km x 800m copper target in the central portion of the Cundumbul license with an ongoing multiple phase drilling program seeking to test three separate targets across a 750m strike associated with a zoned hydrothermal quartz breccia system (a key geological marker at the Boda-Kaiser deposits to the north in the same volcanic belt of the Macquarie Arc).For further details and technical disclosures refer to the following Kincora releases:May 20, 2024, "Exploration Alliance partner Earth AI drilling commenced at the Cundumbul project"October 6th, 2022, "Alliance with Artificial Intelligence Explorer for Cundumbul project"Woomera earn-in and joint venture agreement for the Bronze Fox Project(Southern Gobi, Mongolia)Following a successful strategic review process for Kincora's Mongolian assets, a definitive Earn-In Implement Agreement (EIA) was signed on September 30th, 2024, with ASX listed Woomera Mining Limited (Woomera, ASX ticker "WML").Woomera is a funded, successful and motivated partner with Kincora retaining attractive exposure to the Mongolian assets by becoming Woomera's largest shareholder and with an earn-in and carry/bullet payment and NSR model.Woomera has commenced a maiden drilling program with a three-pronged approach:Confirmation of a shallower, higher grade corridor: a single diamond drill hole for up to 900m depth is designed to confirm new high grade discovery potential within an open structural zone associated with a series of four prior drill holes which all returned intervals of over 1% copper, including prior hole F62 which returned 929m @ 0.37% CuEq including 318m @ 0.53% CuEq and 37m @ 1.01% CuEq 2.Woomera's designed hole seeks to test an open western strike for potential higher grades at shallower levels than prior drilling associated with a mapped vein corridor coincident with Induced Polarisation (IP), gravity and magnetic anomalies.Given the spacing and depth of the higher grade mineralisation returned in the series of four prior holes is excluded from the existing JORC Mineral Resource Estimate and the designed hole has the potential to demonstrate significant upside potential in volume and grade of the existing resource if successful.Expand existing shallow resource inventory: infill and expansion drilling is planned on the western higher-grade trend to the existing JORC Resource of 194Mt at 0.26% CuEq 2. The program is expected to increase both the tonnage and grade of the existing resource if successful.Securing mining licence: infill and expansion drilling is expected to be sufficient to satisfy the criteria needed to secure a mining license on the western exploration license, in addition to the existing mining license on the eastern license. Securing the second mining license would provide a minimum of 30-year security of tenure across the full Bronze Fox project, that covers ~175km2 and includes three large and near surface intrusive complexes.For further details and technical disclosures refer to the following Woomera releases:September 30th, 2024, "Woomera to Commence Drilling at Bronze Fox Project"August 20th, 2024, "Prospectus"References:1 Inflection Resources Provides Drilling Update from Phase II Duck Creek Exploration Program in New South Wales - press release October 3, 2024 2 Kincora Copper ASX Announcement: Mineral resource and updated exploration target for Bronze Fox, July 26th 2022 and Woomera Mining ASX Release: Woomera secures advanced copper / gold project in world-class Mongolian Copper Belt, August 12th, 20243 Newcrest Mining Limited final annual report (2009) for EL6337 (open file)4 Gold Fields H1 2024 Results - August 23, 20245 Sourced from MinEx Consulting for Kincora6 According to the Australian Financial Review (2023).About Kincora Kincora Copper is dual listed on the ASX and TSX-V (ticker "KCC") and is an active explorer and project generator focused on world-class copper-gold discoveries.
