Happy Friday!

We had a busy day yesterday with back to back meetings in Sydney roadshowing one of our portfolio companies around town.

It’s always a little disappointing coming back from 31 degree weather to sideways rainfall here in Melbourn.

Across markets

Australian shares are poised to drop, in line with losses in New York, after the latest US inflation data renewed bets that the Federal Reserve is not yet done lifting interest rates.

Core consumer prices, which exclude food and energy, rose 0.3 per cent last month. Headline prices were 0.4 per cent higher. Both metrics were forecast to rise 0.3 per cent.

“I think the [Fed’s policy committee] would look at this and still conclude that underlying inflationary pressures remain too hot for their liking,” Scotiabank’s Derek Holt said. “Core CPI is bouncing back and more important is the evidence on underlying service prices.”

ASX futures were down 60 points or 0.8% to 7065 near 6.45am AEDT.

  • On Wall St at 3.55pm: Dow -0.5% S&P -0.6% Nasdaq -0.6%
  • In New York: BHP -1.4% Rio -0.9% Atlassian -6.3%
  • Tesla -1.6% Apple +0.5% Amazon +0.4% VIX +4.5%

The local currency plunged 1.6 per cent; the Bloomberg dollar spot index leapt 0.7 per cent. The US dollar was set to post its best session in five weeks, and snap a six-day losing streak. The NZ dollar, British pound and euro also tumbled against the greenback.

  • Drill core samples from Godolphin’s Narraburra clay rare earths project have been sent to ANSTO for the second phase of test work
  • Initial leach test highlighted exceptional recoveries earlier this year
  • Planned work designed to provide a greater understanding of Narraburra’s rare earths extraction alternatives

Godolphin has begun metallurgical test work on samples from the Narraburra rare earths project, which pulled in ‘some of the best’ recovery rates from an Australian weathered clay hosted REE deposit earlier this year.

Godolphin Resources’ (ASX:GRL) Narraburra project northeast of Temora in central west NSW hosts a 94.9Mt resource at 739ppm TREO, which includes a higher-grade component of 20 million tonnes at 1,079ppm TREO.

The project has been explored since 1999, when programs by its previous owner revealed the Devonian Age rocks, upwards of 350 million years ago, to host a cornucopia of rare earth elements.

They included neodymium and praseodymium, the key light rare earth metals prized for their use in permanent magnets for EV motors and wind turbine generators.

Other critical metals included zirconium, yttrium, niobium, dysprosium, terbium, most importantly very low levels of the radioactive uranium and thorium which are inherent to many rare earth deposits.
