really happy to be here with Moitza. So Moitza is one of the members and helpers of my client group program, ABC MasterHeart. And yeah, I've been referring people to Moitza over the years because she's a great coach and supporter and guide. And well, I just wanted to kind of have her celebrate recent, you know, progress and share some insights and share what kind of new offerings she has right now. So Moitza, I'll let you introduce yourself more. Yeah. Take it away. Thank you, George. First of all, so nice to be here with you and the people that are watching this. Thanks for inviting me. Yes, so celebrating, right? So when I was kind of thinking of this interview coming up I was like, wow, what do I have to celebrate? It's not much to celebrate. And then I'm thinking, I am a coach always when I start my client sessions, like first three things that went well since we last spoke. And a lot of people really have to kind of, I had to train them and then they were doing, okay, three things that went well and then, okay, and I'll speak about three things that have been challenging, but it's such a good practice to actually stop and reflect on what has gone well. And when I did that, even though things were not top of mind because I've been so busy and my attention hasn't been 100% on my coaching business, but other freelance opportunities that I've taken on. There has still been so much to celebrate. And one thing I wanna single out is despite being super busy, I've still stayed committed to my business and have continued to grow it and taken on opportunities that sometimes feel like they fall into my lap, but I shouldn't play down my achievements by falling into my lap, right? So I think, yeah, one thing to celebrate is the good things that came into my life and work opportunities and projects in my coaching business, even if they felt effortless. I think that's probably why they felt effortless is because I love coaching so much and it feels kind of an effortless work to do. So anything I do towards it doesn't feel like work. And one more thing I wanted to celebrate is, so staying committed, which I really credit to your joyful productivity teaching storage, the TLC that I took, I think in 2022 has been transformative. And I know you from before in your work but that was really kind of a breakthrough moment for me and my own personal organization and being able to fit a lot more things into my life. Rather than going extreme into just one thing and then dropping everything else. So, yeah, that's been really good. And one thing, another, I guess, maybe the top thing I wanna point out that I'm celebrating is also inspired by you, I've held co-working sessions for the past, at least two months, if not three months with my actually past last year's MasterHeart team. And we've been really supporting each other. And it's, first of all, it's really effortless for me to do this, I'm working anyway and I love hanging out with people. So it's been really great. I got great feedback from the ladies that have been, right? For the members that have been attending. And to the point where one of them said, I do all my weekly work in these hours and I've held quite a long open hours for like two to three hours actually for like three times a week. And what that did actually was in conversations with these participants. I was inspired to include that into one of my offerings. So actually, it's such, to me, it's like, it must be my strength to host this, to hold space for people. And I like engaging or not even, it's not an engaging work alongside each other, but to be in community with people. It's something I kind of do naturally. I love people. And what this did, I didn't even notice that this could be offered to other people that might wanna space where they can co-work with others. And then one of the ladies said, well, this is super valuable. Why don't you offer this to people? So I did include it in one of my offers actually. And yeah, it's currently open to the public. Oh, that's great. I wanna hear more about that because first of all, I think a lot of people watching this, hopefully know what co-working is. I talk about it occasionally, but maybe you could describe it from your own perspective. What is it, what is it? How does it work when you facilitate it? And then what is available now that besides the master heart group, but what's available to the public now? Yes. So yeah, so co-working is really people coming together to work together, right? There's certain kind of parameters of how the session is run. People in your circles, probably everyone knows about FocusMate and I'm also a user of FocusMate, even though now less that I have had this for the past few months. But yeah, it's really coming together and working for about 15 minutes. So taking in the beginning of the session, sharing what each person is working on for the next hour or 15 minutes and then debriefing at the end of the hour, sharing what they got done. And I've had the opinion of an opinion feedback from the women that are coming to this session was that it feels, they feel more accountable because we know each other than they do in FocusMate with a stranger. So that was interesting. And so how it works is I offer, yeah, like I said, between two to three hours at a time because I quite like long stretches of work and I might work on one project, I might split it and work on different things per hour, that's almost beside the point, but I like long stretches of work with brief pause in between. So yeah, it's how I said, checking in the beginning, then debriefing like five minutes to the hour, then a quick stretch break and then starting again five past and then 50 minutes. So it's kind of 10 minutes break in between the working sessions. And what is an offer, I guess, part of my coaching offering is I have this coaching offering that I'm really excited about. It's about, and it really came with kind of a combination of looking back at, you know, you know me, George, I've kind of danced around different niches over time and like I can be everything to everyone. And then I actually look back at who I help most or best, who I enjoy working with best. And it's creatives that have these projects they wanna, you know, bring to life and life gets in the way or they get busy with other things and just don't get to the thing they want to do and offer their stress that's in the, at play, there's anxiety, you know, different things kind of, they just enmeshed in things and don't have the clarity or the plan to actually do the stuff they really want to do. And why this coworking fits so well and I didn't see it and this I'm important to add to me is because, so the offering is, I offer these two sessions where people, I help people get clarity and actual, there's like a planning session included as well where I really help them break things down into, you know, milestones into create kind of a structure for work. And then these coworking are kind of added as a bonus, if you will, they can come as often as they please but it's really to work on the plan that they created in the coaching sessions. So, yeah, it's about putting things into action and one month of coaching or not coaching coworking sessions is included in addition to those two sessions. Yeah, I think it's a really good, they complement each other. Exactly, it's both the strategy and the implementation, you know, that's included, which is great. Tell us more about, yeah, this framework you use when you are coaching creatives. I mean, lots of people watching this are creatives as well, they're creating a business or creating some art within a business. There's lots of creative projects, of course. So, when you work with a client and so kind of maybe walk us through that, I'm sure it's gonna be enlightening for a lot of us here.  I mean, we'll start from there. Let's say, yeah, you just got a new creative client. What do you do now? Yes, so it depends, right, where they're starting at. Depends what is getting in the way for them, but first step is always, always to identify. It also get them fired up about what is the vision? Because often when things are kind of getting in the way, we lose track of where we were going and it just feels like we're in this kind of forest, dark forest of everything's kind of not going so well and you can get bogged down and all of that. I mean, I'm also speaking from personal experience, I don't know how this happens, but they come to me because they still have that glimmer of desire, hope, I want to do this, I know I can. I just don't know how and they feel usually kind of lost. So it's about really connecting them to the vision. This would be if I worked with a client usually over a little bit longer time maybe, the thriving creator, the two sessions plus planning, I suppose it's also always two, one part is the inner work, connecting to the vision, connecting to the resources that they have. So they focus more on what they'll be have going for them rather than focusing on all the things that are in the way to really fuel themselves with an energy of possibility. And I use so many different tools, it's not like prescriptive, I always use the same, but yeah, I have some favorites. And then the second step, again, it depends either in the scope of these two sessions, the second step is always then to translate all those insights and that vision into concrete steps into a plan. So this has been invaluable for all the clients that I've worked with. They're like, oh, I feel so like I know what I'm doing. Like they feel empowered because they actually, you know, either the same day or the next day they didn't know what to do. So it's very practical in that sense. There's inner work, but then there's also practical. And yeah, yeah. No, no, this is really helpful. So talk us through a little bit about, I mean, I guess we could maybe cover a little bit about both sides of it, the inner work and the practical. So tell us some of the things that you see from your clients being struggling with in terms of the inner parts of it, the inner parts of their creative project. Mm-hmm. Well, a huge one is like the belief that they don't like structure or yeah, that's a huge one. You probably see that as well, George. I mean, I think we all have this different, you know, different parts, you probably heard me talk about that before I'm a Boisela facilitator as well as a coach. This is one of my modalities. And I just see, you know, human personality through this lens of different parts. And it's really which parts were strengthened as we were growing up. It doesn't mean we don't have potential for, not the opposite, but complementary parts. We just need to know how to unlock them, how to invite them into our lives. So if a person, you know, says they don't like structure, maybe realize that they're probably coming to coach because they realize they need something else than what they currently have, right? So what they have is not quite working. Then I help them kind of access those resources or invite those, what's already there, latent within them into their life. And obviously this, you know, needs to happen through practice. It's not like just a light switch, just turn on, right? It's about, sometimes it's literally getting in touch with those energies within you. That's the inner work. But it's also about establishing habits and practices that support that in the daily life. Yeah, well, this is a big topic because yeah, I think the creatives that have experienced enough of just trying to create by whim or just by inspiration, eventually they look at more successful creators, perhaps successful in their field and they do notice more consistency. And so the structure, this idea of structure comes in and I'm wondering what is your perspective about that? Because yeah, someone says, yeah, and the parts is very interesting too. So let's take it from that point of view. Like what are the different parts that a client might have within them? Parts that are resistant to structure, parts that welcome it. How might you describe that more? Yeah, so also one would definitely be the free spirit. Free spirit doesn't like to be kind of tied down and it can feel that the structure would tie down, right? Constricted, limited. But actually that's just one perspective of this free spirit part of the person, right? And it doesn't have the full picture. It only has its own experience or view of their life. And it's a really valuable energy and part and it contributes a lot to our lives. It allows us to kind of, yeah, flow and get spontaneous and discover things kind of, yeah, like we didn't expect, right? It's also has, you know, curious selves are also there kind of mixed in. But the structure one actually, my view is the structure is actually a container that can hold those, let's say, creative parts or even the free flowing one, which can bring a lot in. I think you speak about that, George, when you say you show up and then you allow yourself to play, right?  And I have another analogy that I like to use. I feel that like those, the creative force, right?   It's warm, like sun is shining and it's kind of, it's nice and warm. But if you give it a structure, like a magnifying glass, that's what an analogy like to use, when you really focus the sun ray through the magnifying glass, you can, you know, literally burn the paper underneath it. Like it's so focused, the energy is so focused it can produce real impact and real difference. And that's exactly what I see with my creative clients as well. Yeah, I love that. Yeah, go ahead, please. I just wanted to say that when I say creative, it's not only artists. I do work with, yeah, people in creative professions, writers, you know, architects or sorts of different creative expressions, but I see creativity as an approach to life, being, you know, living creatively, living consciously with choice. Yeah, that's kind of my understanding of creative. I love it. And so moving into like the more practical aspects of it, so not only do you work with their parts and helping them become more conscious of it and work with it, then the practical aspects. So let's say now they have this big creative project and they want, they need your help to make practical steps. What do you see yourself doing? Like what have you noticed clients most needing in that aspect of it? They need clarity on what to do is, and that like usually like the big, oh, I want to do this something huge or often having so many choices like probably too many choices to like trying to juggle them all and they're going from one to the other, making little impact with each. And again, I can relate to that. It's, yeah, it is from a personal experience and knowing that there's a better way. It's about, yeah, it's about helping them to kinda focus, like I said, with the magnifying glass, all that creativity, yeah, being able to prioritize, being able to sequence things in time, like when things, you know, everything can have its time, but not all at once. So, yeah, we literally, we break bigger things, very coaching styles and we break a bigger goal, if you will, or vision into smaller pieces, milestones, evaluate them. Are they really like, why, even why are they going after it? It's not why can something would be wrong, but how aligned is it really? Because sometimes people pursue things for the wrong reasons without knowing. They may think it will bring them something and then they get that and it doesn't. Why not check before, is it really aligned with your values, like why are you really going after it? So that check is in place, so they, yeah, so they really pursue the things, because also when the things that are going after aligned with their values, they're gonna be more motivated. When things get tough, they know why they're doing it. It's so important, because the values are the things that are really important to us in life. So that's one of the key things that do with all clients, yeah. Yeah, I like that a lot, because values is kind of an eternal energy source and it's sort of an eternal goal, the way I see it. Like if you align your actions with values, even if the actions don't produce the intended results, so-called, you still acted with values, you know, it's like you still pursued the path that was deeply meaningful and aligned with purpose. So I really like that, that you have that focus. Okay, so that's really good. So let's talk a bit more about, like, okay, so the client, they come to you, they are creative with a big project or they're overwhelmed with lots of different things. They begin working with you, you help them with these parts within themselves and you help them clarify the sort of the steps along the way, so there's a clear plan. And then you offer the co-working that they can come to. And how many, by the way, how many hours per week do you offer the co-working again? I offer two sessions per week, sometimes three. Yeah, at least two, so I kind of promise in the offer eight sessions within a month. So two sessions of at least two hours, but sometimes I offer three hours, yeah. But so at least, what is that? Eight times two? That's like four hours at least per week. Four hours per week of co-working, which is people can get a lot done in those four hours. Okay, so then you have this coaching offer and then in terms of like what you are, and I mean, I think what I like about you as a coach because I mean, breaking down tasks means that you have a wide range of experience that you can help them gauge what might be more effective than others because you've helped people build businesses, you've helped people with creative projects, yourself as well. And so I think that experience comes to bear and it's really helpful. So I know on your offerings page, you have like several different offerings. Do you wanna talk about anything else there that's available, or maybe that's like unified into one offering? Yeah, actually I wanna, yeah, the main offering that I'm, I guess, I guess this one, the differences between thriving creator and the other kind of coaching, which is a bit longer is, it's really just the length of how deep they wanna go. And also, which really depends on how big the things that they're working on, or how much support people feel they need, right? So if they feel, oh, I have this, I'm stuck on this one thing, I just need this much support, then the two sessions plus co-working is all they need. If they feel like this is a long-term thing, I have this big kind of aspiration or something I would like to do, but I'm not quite clear and they don't feel like two hours in the court. You know what I mean? Like some people are more self-directed than others or not in general, but with a specific project. So then a longer thing. But what I would like to actually share is something that I recently learned from one of the ABC members, Caroline Leon is, and I want to integrate into my business, is gift sessions, which I don't know, just when I read that, I don't know why it's never occurred to me, but I find I love the concept so much. So stay tuned. My website's gonna have, yeah, gift session offers, which will be a limited number of sessions per month. I'm not sure if I'll do per month, a certain number per quarter that I can commit to that. And because I just, I love working with people and I want everyone to be able to experience working with me if they want to. That's wonderful. Yes, absolutely. It's a little similar to, I guess I would call it like tapering strategy, perhaps where there's like multiple options on a page. I mean, I use it for tapering strategies a little bit more complex, which is like on a single offerings page, there's like multiple possibilities and one of them could be gift, could be gift or low price or something like that. But no, it's really gracious of you to do that. I think people are gonna be very lucky to be able to work with you to try this out with you. So I will have the links below, of course, for those who are interested. Anything else you wanna share as we close out this conversation, any other kind of tips or insights that you wanna bring here? Yeah, I just wanna mention about the ABC, right? I've been so busy this year. Since the end of last year actually, just been so like, I feel like so many things at times. Oh my God, am I overwhelmed or what's going on? And I'm kind of, yeah, obviously using all the tools I have to get through that in one piece and then still thrive and I can still smile, which is great. But I want to give credit as well to almost like this invisible safety net that ABC feels, just the community, it feels like, I have the community, the supportive community and even if I don't go sadly to all the calls and as many as I would like to, it still feels I'm in this fold together with you, George and with the others. And I know that if I need feedback on something, I can post it somewhere and ask and it just so supportive to be in this community, even if it's virtual and we don't see each other so frequently, it still energetically feels very supportive. And I think that's very important for probably every business person to have. Thank you for saying that. I love providing that space. And I've heard from others too. There's, it's like, you know, it's always going to be there to support you and people are amazing in the community. So thank you, thank you for being one of those people. Thank you so much, Moetza. I am grateful to be able to have your support in the community, your presence there. And I think your clients are lucky to have you work with them. So I will, I hope people who are watching this can check out the links below, take a look at Moetza's website, social media, et cetera. And thank you for the work that you do and how you do it. Thank you so much, George. Thank you.


welcome back to the craft box today we are gonna be going down to the bottom of this area which is somewhere is somewhere to get some jewels and stuff and things and things and stuff and stuff and things yes that sounds about right um yeah let's run over there hi rose welcome how are you how's it going today um what do you think of new stitch i finally finished it i finally found just the right boots to match all i had to do was just craft the vanguard boots who would have thought who would have thought um i need to turn on names okay haha my notification was late no it wasn't why was it late why was it late i literally just sent it out like literally just before why was late please explain why was late why was late please explain um we can just meteor strike easy quiet but usually it's early before you actually start streaming yeah that's because i used to do starting screen and i'm like i'm trying out not doing starting screen so people just come and see oh he's live already even better let's stay that is planned so yeah i didn't do starting screen today i just i just had space on all time i just had game there all time ready to go i am prepared so yeah that's why it was late even though it wasn't late because i literally had only just pressed start streaming and um only just got the notification just a minute ago for when i started streaming about a minute ago so you know and i i pushed the discord one before i even pressed go live so that one wasn't late for sure um you're just getting jewels yeah i am just getting jewels we need some pierce jewels for my fire um because then i can be good and if i am that would be great because yes i have recently re-changed all of my gear on this character not all of it but a lot of the gear on this character it's been updated changed i've also changed my stitch on this character so yeah now i am now i am clockwork clockwork destroyer machine master andrew rainrider that is me that is me i am currently rocking um 161 damage is just because of the damage thing when novice comes it'll be actually properly um does anyone know when novice drops live rum probably in about two weeks i would say that's usually about how long it is in um testrum but yeah i am currently rocking the merciless hat the malice dev robe the vanguard boots um could get the dragoon boots but not really necessary too much um it's like what one extra damage one extra power pip and that's literally it that's all i'm losing a little bit of health i think as well so it's not crazy there's a bug bug flying around um merciless fire wand merciless fire fm uh which we need to ps2 was for and we have the delightful rope and the merciless firing which we need a ps2 full and then my pet which i've added uh this one which is i can't even remember what this the chief focus one which i had um which is power pip and uh dragon lance i needed the power pip chance because i was down to like under under 100 if i didn't have it because yeah so just subtract five from that and it would be where i was so yeah that is my gear on my fire it is getting ready for novus um have wizard or pirate 101 had any tie ins and other mediums like comics there is no comics of either game technically unless the one unless you mean like the abracadoodle and the puppet pirates i guess um they they operate in the same universe um and a couple of characters you know have floated between the games more more characters have floated over from um from was to pirate like miamiati etc um yeah what are we grinding for we're currently grinding for pierce jewels for my fire because we need them in order to have more than like three pairs so yeah that is what i am grinding for it just doesn't stop the grind doesn't stop we must always grind for more should i hit then probably not i was farming these guys for like three hours yesterday didn't get anything at all so that was cool that was fun so i decided hey today i'll just stream it and you can suffer with me uh-huh uh-huh um you mean outside of the game itself there's no other medium outside the game itself there is no medium outside the game itself at all for either game we'll stop there's none of it none of it um yeah nothing we love getting nothing it is so good it is so cool how much piss we are at the moment we're at 13 and we need three six percent so three times six is uh maths 12 no that's two 18 yeah 18 so we'll be up to whatever i said before plus 18 which will be cool so yeah the ps ones usually drop in packs no or is drop rate horrible they do drop in packs but also i've spent on this gear set alone i have spent ridiculous amounts of crowns and i'm not spending anything more than that because that is ridiculous i um yeah who spent way too much crowns i didn't want to farm their power draconian so i opened the lemuria world pack for the f-ame um and got it in 11 packs which was kind of nice but they're like 599 crowns which is ridiculous um and then i bought a hat specifically for the stitch from the crown shop because you couldn't die the other ones that i found um that looked like this um the wand is from the new bundle which i had to buy um and the robe is from the accursed play gauntlet bundle which i technically already had but then had to buy crowns for that or had to buy it technically um um yeah so i'm not opening jewel packs for this character that's just crazy that's just crazy no thank you especially when these guys are not exactly hard to farm they're super easy you just wait a couple of rounds and then hit with the dragon or something so yeah yeah is good easy peasy um has the death skull been restored after malastare attack you would think that after arc one they would have at least tried um no i don't think they would do that either because um the halloween event is in the chasm so they would have to change where that is so that just opens up a whole bunch of extra issues that they would have to figure out i don't think that i think the death skull is going to stay in night side 100 percent i don't think i don't see them ever moving the death skull especially since we technically don't even we're not even at ravenwood anymore so it's like completely outside of the scope of any future updates really because it's just not something that they need to do um yeah just my opinion though um aren't you afk farm or is that not allowed what do you mean afk farm what do you mean by this what do you mean by this i would never use those sort of auto clicker cheat engine type things i would never do that also that's boring why would you just afk farm when you can just like you know stream or just have like youtube like i was doing yesterday for three hours just had youtube i've been watching youtube for like for like five five million years three hours while doing this passes the time very quickly all i have to do is just had a quick a few cards every once in a while that's pretty afk already like that's pretty chill if i don't go first i just blade and then dragon if i go first i just meteor pretty simple not that difficult um how are we taught death isn't that one of the classes we choose from yeah you go to night side the the death school still exists it always has it's just not in ravenwood the same with balance it's just not there but it's still existing it's just in a different location um i heard that you can clip certain cards before hand then get it overnight yeah you could do that but then also i don't want to die either because if i die then that's kind of screwed up and i would die because these guys stun you a whole bunch and then what if i physical you know upsetting upsetting also there's not really how the game should be played in my opinion you know the game is not here to be an idle clicker game it may feel like that sometimes but it's not necessarily an idle clicker game also knowing my luck i would just fill up my jewel pouch before i even got anything thus meaning that it was completely wasted because i couldn't get any jewels that would happen to me that a hundred percent would happen to me a hundred percent um um right they did bye bye bye bye bye little katties little katties bye bye damage nope we need damage i was my jewel pouch going not too bad not too bad i haven't got any right no i haven't cool sometimes i have to check because i'm i i go like i haven't seen any yet so i'm like have i got any and i just didn't notice because that is a possibility honestly wouldn't put that past me that would happen to me a hundred percent um have you ever thought about playing other mmo's if you want to start i can recommend a few i play runescape i've played runescape for a long time um and i still play that to this day um i play pirate and was other than that i don't really have time for any games like i just i just do not have time and like going into next year i will not have any time at all full stop so yeah i just don't have time to play that also i'm not really i'm at the time where i'm not really interested in putting a whole bunch of time into it like another mmo at this point i just it's just too much time if it for me and i just cannot do that just cannot do that on top of everything else that i have to do i'd prefer to play games like with friends or or just games that like i don't have to put like crazy amounts of like work into you know like i don't have to farm gear every every year or whatever you know because it on like several different characters because it's tedious and annoying sad life as adult i know i know right i know right that's crazy but yeah next year next year is going to be really really interesting next year i think is probably going to be like the most the most craziest year of my life i think i think it's going to be the most craziest year of my life 100 it's going to be crazy absolutely crazy so i don't know how much i'll be streaming next year but i will try i will try is is key i will try oh my gosh myth wow if only i was a myth character actually i'm going to keep that for my myth character that's the first that's the first one i've got well farming this for like three hours plus 13 minutes probably a little bit longer the first one i've gotten it's crazy crazy we need one cooking stream dude i'm gonna i'm thinking next year i'm going to do a lot more like iRL stuff because i think that would be kind of cool and that breaks away from this like you know i'll still do a whole bunch like mainly wizard pirate stuff but also i want to start like branching out into doing more like iRL sort of stuff have kings are made more games outside of pirate 101 and wizard 101 yes they are all closed down now they were mobile games they got closed down when gimme go brought some of them got closed down before but most of them most of the ones that remain got closed down before when gimme go brought um kings are because that was not their focus oh my gosh now we're getting pierce jewels what the heck geez all i have to do is start streaming and i just get pierce jewels it's what happened on my death 100 percent it's ridiculous absolutely ridiculous for animal cove animal cove was kind of good honestly it was a pretty good game that was the only mobile game that i actually actively played oh my gosh what the heck thank you kings i'll i appreciate you so much for this of course i go first yep that's cool thanks game appreciate it um yeah but they're all closed down the only games that kings i'll have currently is pirate 101 and wizard 101 those are the only two there are no more no more so yeah well they meant more in the future i don't know i don't know i have no clue the blam destroyed get wrecked goodbye feel well feel well another one no that was a that was just a random life on cool well that was all of our luck that was all of our luck for the day you're gone time to wait another 45 minutes and we'll get nothing just watch it happen watch it happen that's gonna happen trust me trust me blam bye bye bye kitty please give me give me give me no no oh my gosh give a steady so much tungsten though which is kind of nice uh let's just remove that don't need it don't need it don't need it at all blam did you see my steps rose are you proud of me are you proud of me i am big and strong i am strong i'm so strong my piet has not cast it's may cast yet which is kind of interesting i'm wondering when it's gonna first do that you were writing houses super fast so i could log off and get back to work fair enough i'll show you i'll show you i've managed to get over a hundred percent power poop so i am i am good now i am good you cannot complain that i am not good because i am good i am very good hi betsey welcome to a different account how's it going today hope you're doing well hope you're doing well all i did was i simply put put a jewel on piet equals equals equals more power but problem solve it is great so now i have 103 i'm not even wearing trigoon boots because i'm like i can't be bothered crafting the i was crafting the vanguard boots and i'm like i really can't be bothered farming for trigoon boots it's just not worth it because the vanguard ones give the um the sharpen blade and i'm like when do i ever really use traps anyway i don't need a potent a potent so yeah i gave up on that dream so now i've just got vanguard which is kind of good because it's only it's only when there's damage and when there's power poop and i a little bit of health maybe it's not crazy so yeah hi dylan welcome is this mirage yes this is mirage we're just getting um jewel three fire piercing jewels is what we need or this character when we get them i'll be great if you ever decide to go for it i'm not going for i don't want to go for it i don't want to go to the catacombs anymore at this stage i'm not going for it it's not happening it's not happening it's just tedious and painful and i don't like it way too tedious getting vanguard boots is enough that's all i would only get one extra damage and one extra power pip and power pip doesn't matter in damage well am i really gonna miss one no so yeah we'll test from be back on monday yeah test from we'll be back at monday um sometime during monday it's not going to be like bang on like midnight because they have to actually like launch it themselves and no one's in the office at midnight usually so it's usually around it's usually in the morning like 10 am the central i would say by then it would probably be up i don't know the exact time but yeah it'll be back on monday which is tomorrow so yeah um how are you going dylan how are you going it's usually in the morning when they release test drum again um and it may have another update to it as well mate because usually they do a little bit of an update on monday to test drum just to fix any bugs that happened hopefully they fix the dead click bug that would be so nice that would be so nice i play on test drums all day on monday because i got a lot of the night shipper force or death spells on test drum fair enough they won't transfer over to your live rum character just be aware they will stay on your test drum character and then get deleted once test drum ends because those characters do not progress over i'm right nothing nothing nothing sad so sad hopefully they fix the dead spell sound that would be great that would be very cool that would be amazing if they did i can tell them to please keep it that's not how it works that's not how it works test drum character is a copy of your character that gets deleted after test drum closes you you do not keep your progress that you got on test drum it's it doesn't happen it gets deleted the character that's on test drum gets deleted after test drum closes they said i keep it they didn't they didn't say that because that's not how test drum works how did you like novice i put out a tweet on my thoughts of novice novice novice novice what did i say what did i say i said i said completed novice up to spoiler wool amazing world apart from one boss who reduces your damage to 500 randomly the round i hit three times in a row um i didn't get it tragic um really loves the subtle pirate 101 lore to expand that part of the spiral since canes defeat most importantly the music was 1000 out of 10 best music in game love trying to pick up pick out all of the parts of the original songs big props to making the Polaris battle music even better i didn't know you could make perfection even more perfect overall in world ratings this is currently my new favorite world mainly because of the twists in the story which were foreseeable for those who are paying attention but not too predictable um i should have done dragon oh well um the music and also expanding on the pirate story the new pip system is really fun to play with loving casting a two pip reshuffle whenever i was a bit skeptical when i read about it but in practice it's very well done some of the new spells are definitely unfinished and need to be tidied up but i'm sure that will happen before release um would get uh would like to know what the heck what is this it would be really nice to get more than just pick snacks and music throws every fight how about some other assets as housing items and some more gear drops i only got about four pieces in my of gear in my whole questing not counting jewels or pins yeah i should have done a dragon um pins seem interesting would be cool if it could be rolled out uh for more than just level one six to gear i feel like it would be a very good way to to get dual school stats early in earlier worlds like celestia to azteca that is that is my official response to nervous you can go and read that and more on my twitter zcraft underscore pops onto it you can do that um yeah that is that is my official stance on nervous currently pop favorite world apart from that one boss who randomly reduces your health to five randomly reduces your damage to five hundred and it does it every time you win just before i hit three times so other than that best world but we're not talking about story today um can you do beast moon i can't because beast moon is not on at the moment it's decaethon it is decaethon so i physically cannot do beast moon um hi ducks welcome how's it going how are you oh my gosh i'm gonna actually lock that because i do not want to get rid of that where is it um piercing jade onyx piercing onyx where is it piercing onyx lock lovely that'll be good for my death later sometime what the flip there's a new world yeah there's a new world is on test drum at the moment test drums close for the weekend but it'll be back um on monday um yeah i must have been living under a rock more than u brain because i haven't heard of new boss um what you mean what you mean by living under a rock more than me i don't live under a rock i just live in new zealand okay it's very rude to say that i live under a rock that's australia will you be on test drum when it's done fix it i will probably not be on test drum again no i've done my test drum stream that's it i am waiting i'm not gonna do the end of um nervous until it comes to live rom because i i want to see it when it's like 100 done i don't want to like test it i just want to see it when it's done when i get there um on my fire that that's what i want to do so i won't be on test drum again test drum i did one test drum stream and that's that's all of the test drum stream there there will be no more test drum stream i'll be making an update notes video which i was meant to write that and also the lemuria story so far today but then i got distracted doing other stuff which is just typical um so yeah new zealand under rock all the same no it's not the same it's different it's different i swear it's different oh my gosh can i please just get at least one piercing drill right now this is crazy this is actually ridiculous oh my gosh what is my luck everyone's like oh just farm for gear it's easy you know just go to mount Olympus and get your gear and three three tries me never happens dirty tries nope still not got it dirty tries i might have one piece of gear so sad so sad so sad i swear i have the worst gear like in this game 100 percent 100 percent the worst gear like like i just cannot get anything ever it's ridiculous absolutely ridiculous at least these guys are easy to kill friend opens up i literally opened up 30 on my death and didn't get any piercing drills full stop not even baby ones i didn't get any i opened up 30 on my death when i was going for this like like two months ago didn't get any 30 packs didn't get any absolute scam i got scammed it's terrible absolutely terrible but yeah you know open up one pack get pixie like what is this what is this i said i after that happened that i've lost all of my whiz luck and it is true i have lost all of my whiz luck now there is no luck anymore it has run out i am i am just exist now i don't get anything i have to brute force it it's like even if i craft those jewel like the randomized jewels i still don't get it still don't get it i crafted i think i crafted like a hundred of them on my death didn't get a single piercing jewel it's astounding it's absolutely astounding how unlucky i am absolutely astounding not a single piercing jewel from that it's actually crazy i think i got like one from crafting but like after a hundred and i'm just like yep no that's not a good way to go it was ridiculous absolutely ridiculous pixie and one pack and headless and four so lucky that there's no higher luck than that yeah but then it all caught back up to me with shipper pulls which was like way too much way too many packs to open to get that it's just not cool not cool zero out ten terrible terrible terrible luck now you see op auto clicker you're getting it i i don't understand the use of an auto clicker i just don't get it then you also got the purple winter that's a cool mount i will agree but like oh there's the last one yep we're gonna get all of their skulls before fire hundred percent hundred percent we've got what myth death shadow life ice now we're only missing storm just get me a storm one why don't you game just to really rub it in watch this next drop be a storm one and then i start getting double ups of them and i still don't get a fire one i just need two fire ones the three fire ones is that too much to ask i guess it is i guess it is too much to ask really way too much to ask devastating absolutely devastating whoa one thousand out ten stitch thank you thank you thank you i finally figured out how to incorporate boots into the stitch the boots were the boots were the hardest part um when i crafted the vanguard boots because i'm like i need to use them um and i put them on and i'm like actually actually actually that fits well so the boots are literally unstitched but i think it looks good yeah i also bought a new mount just for the stitch i have a problem i have a problem this whole stitch i don't think i'm ever going to be able to change just simply based on how much crowns and irl money i have spent on the stitch like it is ridiculous absolutely ridiculous i bought a whole new bundle technically too because of the accursed robe um the accursed um gauntlet robe that i'm wearing but i had that ages ago for the gauntlet anyway um i had to buy a whole gear set from the crown shop just for the hat and then my ethame i bought was a merciless ethame because i didn't want to farm power draconian i bought it from the pack which took 11 packs of 599 crowns each which is crazy then i bought a whole map i have a problem uh i have a problem you verified your channel you just put a tick in your name congrats on putting a tick in your name very very clever very clever very clever very clever just gonna say if that was a storm pierce drill honestly was gonna scream is that the toothpaste it is the toothpaste 100% the verified toothpaste just until youtube's like hey with youtube premium you can now verify your channel for for 8.99 a month haha yeah take that twitter we can do it too and then everyone can be the toothpaste the real toothpaste um yeah just watch it happen watch it happen the funny thing is i would then be verified just because youtube premium i think is just such a good product because i cannot sit through ads ads are terrible and dreadful just watch youtube do it it would be so funny if they did it though um yeah i put you on my toothbrush every day oh my gosh um right i need to use a potion after this because i am dying i'm dying here oh no oh no this is devastating but yeah i'm super happy with how the stitch turned out i'm really happy with this i wasn't actually expecting it to to look this good when i just got the wand i'm like you can try and make it work and i went through like four different iterations and i think this is the best one so yeah the worst is the election commercials in america they have them here as well and it is terrible that's and it's only the parties that i don't support that ever i ever see so that was actually part of the reason why youtube premium originally because i'm like i have to watch you on tv and also and also on youtube no no not happening not happening so i got youtube premium just to stop it because i ain't i ain't doing that i ain't doing that just not happening not happening they have them in new zealand so i figured yeah they do they we have we have elections too guys don't worry it's not just america who has elections we have them too every three years then actually technically it's ever like two and about two because we've got the local elections which for this year and then next year is the actual like general election where we elect prime minister um yeah but yes we have elections too and political parties use facebook and youtube and twitter and all of the above to advertise and it is so annoying and i hate it so annoying plus on tv all the time as well it's ridiculous it's ridiculous the thing that i hate more is when they win when political parties or political groups advertise like before the election as well it's so annoying because like i just want to i just want to vibe okay i don't want to have politics shoved out my throat all the time no not good enough so yeah literally i see a political ad in my days exactly exactly i see them on the road in the billboards and the road and i'm just i am so mad i just wish one thing that i really dislike really really dislike like adamantly is billboards on the side of the road i hate them i hate them with a passion okay it's bad enough that there's ads on the radio every five minutes let alone you go down the road just any road and you see a billboard with a big freaking sign on it advertising something i hate it stop stop getting money off me driving i don't like it the other thing this this is actually a really bad experience that i had with billboards which makes me hate them more um the other day i was driving home from work late at night because i work late night sometimes it's like nine not like super late but like nine nine ten p.m. it's like pitch black there's this billboard it's like an led wall billboard thinking about it is bright white like bright white just plain white that's it and it was blinding like so blinding i nearly had to put my sunglasses on at nine o'clock at night just so i could see because it was so freaking white and bright like it was like light mode on steroids it was ridiculous i was this close to complaining to the billboard people because that was like that was borderline dangerous i just could not see absolutely could not see because the thing is with those billboards they like change um so it was like something that was like actually okay like you know a darker thing um and then all of a sudden they just changed like suddenly into like a bright bright light bright white light and i'm like whoa hello that was not cool it was not cool or good not cool or good um what's annoying is i mean they just demonized the other party instead of promoting themselves exactly i think that's the most the the worst thing about like all of the ads that are that are like political nowadays it's always just like bashing the other party saying ha they suck i'm like cool but like that doesn't tell me that you don't suck you know like at least at least do something constructive you know um yeah in the us we have like three elections at once but the president election is every two to four years yeah you have like you have the midterms which was like the other day and that's first selecting like the the house and half the senate or something and some of the governors and then you have the like the the other elections which uh then like two years time and that's for the president and the other half of the senate and like some other governors and stuff right something like that something like that um yeah i'm pretty sure that's how it works politics with print um i would never wake up and be like hmm i sure hope i see a politician today i don't think anyone should ever think that like ever if you wake up and think i wonder which politician i'll see today you were the problem you were the problem then i see 10 posters on someone's front lawn i i i have to say the one thing that i like about election time is i can i like to see who's who's supporting which party like you know i like to see oh that person supports this party i know exactly what who they are like as a person i i like that i find that really funny um i was actually saying to my boss the other day um that like one year when i get a house i'm just going to put all of the parties on my front lawn just to confuse people just for fun because um i know in like america you only have like two parties um really we we have like we have so many here it's ridiculous we have one two three five in parliament at the moment plus like about five or six other like main sort of parties that are outside of parliament um so like i could i could just fill my whole lawn with like a whole bunch of different parties just for fun just for fun and i feel like that would be kind of funny um but yeah that's the only political advertising i will i will allow and that's the billboards on the side of road for the very short amount of time that they're allowed them because eventually they go away whereas there's a sign these billboards in town where they're like led walls they don't go away they stay there my my local mp has been on a billboard for like six months she's just been there she's just been there i don't know why she's there but she's there because it's not even in her area but she's just there she just exists on billboard now there's a crazy i i feel like one day i'm just gonna put all of the political billboards on my side on my yard i feel like that would be so funny it would just be like just like a whole row of them i think it would be super duper funny because then i can be completely neutral ground i don't support anyone i support everyone but no one but everyone that would be funny that would be so funny i don't know if the other i don't know if they were do they like i would i wonder if they like vet your vet your place like yeah no you can't do that because surely surely they would do that right surely they would because what happens if you put like put it next to a statue or something and it's like a really like inappropriate thing and then you just put the put the sign up next to it or something so they must vet your property right you think maybe the stream is falling apart oh no my lifelong dream to support every party whilst at least they were supporting one is is falling apart ah um you used to have 350 years ago you've got to work on the politics yeah it happens it happens um that guy is not taking any damage you must have had a big boy absorb big boy absorb are we going to get a fire pierced drill in in the next 15 minutes i don't think we are we really don't think we are so sad so sad that will be devastating will be absolutely devastating i'm going to be finishing the stream without getting anything well i mean i did get a little bit pierced so that's good we have 15 minutes 15 minutes can i do it can i do it i don't know if i can i don't think it's gonna happen i have no hope unless i get super lucky super lucky in my unluckiness because theoretically should have got these ages ago because i've got every single other one except storm now and two myth ones so that's fun yeah we're farming for pierced drills or i'm farming for pierced drills i need three for my fire i need three more once i've got them then i'm all all sorted and my fire is ready for no this but it's a lot easier said than done because these guys hate me 100 hate me i've got every other school but but um storm which is fine because i have to farm for these on my storm anyway so i don't really care if i don't get storm ones but it's a bit annoying that i've got two myth ones now it's a bit annoying but also kind of nice because i need to farm for them on my myth anyway but you know i would like just fire ones just two fire ones or whatever that would be great that would be very good that would be fantastic honestly would be ideal get out of here losers aha i mean hey that was close oh no that was close okay two myth two death whatever i'll take those i need i need more death ones and myth ones anyway because i have a death one i'll have to change out my death gear eventually and need more pierced drills so whatever that's fine i really wish there was more more pierced drill like like better better numbers of them because what accuracy goes up to like 15 now but like pierced drills still six and still only farmed and like mirage like and they're also like level 95 plus kind of crazy kind of crazy in my opinion i should have just made you a first round whoops i didn't realize i was going first um yeah pain pain pain pain pain i'm surprised there's not seven pierced drills nowadays yeah i am too honestly i feel like this is another death one are you kidding me are you having a giggle mate oh my gosh myth ice where's fire where's fire where's storm i don't really care about storm but with fire oh my gosh oh my gosh these guys are literally killing me killing my brain cells this that means that i'm gonna get a fire one now right now i'm gonna get a fire one hundred percent either that or another myth one it's gonna happen no nothing okay okay game okay how about we just like chill just a suggestion get into the fight loser poppin loser we've got cats to

check his cheats real fast um hold up let me just put an uh hopefully i will be good hopefully yikes i was thinking it was either gonna be morgue or the marshmallow dude that's what my thoughts were

this cheats can't be late um random power shield you almost solid him you just failed yeah his pain here's a hundred percent pain i can remember this all on this guy my death it was terrible it was absolutely terrible he had three minions yeah he's dreadful why do i have a buck oh it's because he's here that's why as a deaf peppy is just a blur and you don't even really know what's happening or you know that it was easy i have to say morgue was a little bit hard to solo on my death i did do it i'm pretty sure but it was a little bit challenging was a little bit challenging i hope i have a reshuffle in did anyone see if i had a reshuffle because otherwise all i've got is a um i don't have a reshuffle that's cool a meteor after this with no buffs which probably won't kill the eye robots this is old men have been not men have been found over old piano must be its cheddar you go ahead for robots okay okay cool oh it's a men have been one cute cute i've been solo for lots of this world but this guy's hard yeah this guy's hard i will a hundred percent agree with you on that one oh my gosh baby hi hi child that did a lot of damage you're really hurting me baby yikes the marshmallow is a side boss but yeah he's he's challenging that's actually not a marshmallow sugar cube man sugar cube boy who looks absolutely terrifying but he uses the same model as the marshmallow from caramel that's why i call a marshmallow man even though it's not a marshmallow now that i think about it blading for a good burr hundred percent hundred percent okay i don't know how much this is gonna do you

Hello my name is Ginny and I live in South Africa. I have been working as a freelance editor at Inego for the past four years. I hold a master's degree in biomedical sciences. My dissertation focused on the molecular epidemiology of everything swine fever and I published the results in the Journal of General Virology and in Archives of Virology. I originally qualified as a biomedical scientist with a specialization in clinical pathology. I have previously worked in pathology laboratories and have also run a molecular biology lab in the zoology department at a university. We're up for laboratory and molecular biology techniques including DNA sequencing, PCR and phylogenetic analysis to students and postdocs. I have also worked in the scientific role at a production facility for hepatitis C linozacids. We're up for technical and scientific support. I was also involved in equipment and process validations as well as the writing of protocols and procedures to meet ISO standards. My interests are molecular biology, epidemiology, pathophysiology, microbiology, clinical chemistry and hematology. I enjoy my work as an editor and sharing my expertise with others. I look forward to helping you publish your research.

Leave a positive comment down below for a chance to get a post notification shout out at the end of today's video. So guys, today I'm gonna be doing something that I've been holding back on for like four to five months and that is completely cutting off all my hair.  Like having the broccoli top sometimes is too much to maintain. It honestly gets like really annoying at times where I have to like try to do it real fast if like I'm in a rush or if I wanna wear a hat, I can't really wear a hat. If I wanna wear a hoodie, I can't wear a hoodie because if I end up taking that stuff off, my hair looks horrible. And I like wearing hats and I like wearing hoodies, that's what like, I don't know, that's kinda like my style. And I feel like having the curly hair, the broccoli top, it kinda stops me from like wearing like, you know, hats and stuff that I like. But either way, I brought the camera because Janice is at home, she was just getting up when I left the house.  She has no idea that I'm actually about to take off all this hair. This is gonna be crazy, guys. So I brought the camera so when I go back home, I can catch her reaction. And I also think it'll be cool when I'm editing the video, I can kinda see like a before and after of like how I look and then I'll actually be able to tell which one I like better. I already know that the short hairstyle is gonna be way easier to maintain. It's just way more convenient for me. But then there's something about the broccoli top, I always like the, I don't know why. But yeah, guys, right now I'm sitting in front of the barber shop, I'm actually about to go in right now. I'm actually six minutes late for my appointment, so I'm gonna get going, guys. So here's a before, and you guys are gonna see the after right about now. All right, guys, and here's the after. Oh my God, yo, I look 12. This is crazy. I'm looking at myself in the viewfinder, guys. I don't know how I feel about it, to be honest. I really don't. I don't know if I like it, if I wanna keep it. I feel like it has to, I don't know. I don't know. What do you guys think? Comment down below what you guys think. Should I stay with this, or should I let it grow back out? I don't know. I feel like it's two completely different looks. I really don't know which one I like the best. With all that being said, guys, I'm about to drive back home right now. We're gonna go get Janice's reaction. Comment down below as well how you think she's gonna react. The moment we've all been waiting for. Okay, it looks like she's in the bedroom. Hang in there. Babe. Are you home? Yes, I am. I'm hiding behind the wall. Why? Because, come. Is that still in your hair? What? Um, no, close. What do you mean close? Come to the living room. So I can show you, because I'm getting your reaction. To what? Stay right there. I'm gonna come from around the corner. Okay. All right, ready? Okay. Close your eyes first. Close them. Okay. Like, put your hands on your face.  I can see you. I'm looking at you through the camera. All right, ready? No peeky. Okay. All right, hold on. Hold on. All right. Now on three. I'm scared. Open your eyes on three. Okay. One, two, it's crazy. I feel like I look like Bloop.  Am I ugly? It's out of the truth. I'm smaller. My head looks smaller. Yeah, it does. My head does look smaller. Oh my God. Oh my. Crazy. I still don't know if I like it or not. Like, it's a clean cut. It's just like, is it me? Is it me? I don't know. Why are you backing up like that? What do you feel about it? How do you feel? Talk to me. I don't know how I feel about it. I don't know if that's good or bad. I feel like that's bad. Your hair is sticking out. I know. He told me that was gonna happen. I don't know if you guys can see like the frizz.  So he was like, it may take a couple of days before it stays down.  I look like what? You gotta like to cut it. Oh, I thought you said something about like a chicken. No. But I don't... What? It's different. I don't know like... It is different. I just wanna get rid of the frizz. That's all I wanna get rid of. Ooh, what if I could do waves in your hair? I had waves before. Remember the last time? When I cut my hair, I had waves. I like the first thing I'm thinking of is hmmm projects. Oh my God. No, no, no. Nene! Nene, you like daddy's haircut? You like daddy's haircut? Do you see daddy? He's like, yeah, yeah, yeah. Just play with me. All right guys, with all that being said that is the end of today's video. So seriously, how do you feel about it? I like it. You sure? I feel like you look like how you did when I first met you. Back at next school? Yeah, I'm getting like, I don't know. I'm reminiscing. Like I'm getting like the vibe. Nostalgic. Yeah, yeah, that's weird. Nostalgic. So guys, if you guys enjoyed today's video make sure you guys smash that thumbs up button. Comment down below what you guys think yourselves. Now it's time for today's post notification shout out. Today's post notification shout out goes out to Judith Campanones. I'm sorry if I butchered that last name girl but I'm trying. Shout out to you, thank you for all the love and support.

Look, most people when I say the words hafnium say gesundheit and really it's not quite as bad as that. It's actually a very interesting metal when you get into it and I think I won't be embarrassing you or insulting you by saying probably 99.99% of you have never heard of it before and I probably hadn't until starting on this project many, many years ago. But what I'm going to try and do today is give you a very brief overview of the metal and where its applications are and then just finish up by showing how it fits into our Dubbo project which is, as Tracey said, one of the world's most advanced polymetallic projects that will produce zirconium, hafnium, niobium, yttrium and the complete rare earth suite. So it's a very interesting project. So just background, I'm not going to dwell on this, go through this, the name was derived from the Latin name for copenhagen, I think that's very valuable information. It's a very dense metal, the key things there, high thermal neutral absorption, high stability in strength and the temperature, it's thermal electric, high dielectric and you'll see where this goes in a moment, going down that path of applications for the metal. Current traded is crystal bar, hafnium oxide and then hafnium tetrachloride. In the middle you can actually see a hafnium oxide product that we produced off our pilot plant and it'll make more sense further on when you see the flow sheet. So where does hafnium come from? Well basically hafnium and zirconium go hand in hand, they're chemically almost identical and in nature they basically occur together. Most hafnium is located within zirconium, that's about 1 to 50 to 1 ratio zirconium to hafnium and hence the manufacture of hafnium or the recovery of hafnium really depends on what happens to zirconium and the processing of zirconium and if you look at the zirconium industry on the right hand side in that little triangle, that pyramid, you can see it goes through a suite of different zirconium chemicals and you end up at zirconium metal and zirconium metal is used in nuclear reactors, it's the metal tubing that holds the nuclear fuel in place and the reason it's used is because it has a high temperature resistance but is for us to neutrons. Hafnium on the other hand is a complete opposite to that, while it has high temperature resistance it absorbs neutrons, so it gets used in the control rods in a reactor. But the reason I'm talking about this is because zirconium to refine it to nuclear grade you have to get the hafnium out, as I said you can see how having it in there would damage the structure of the tubing. So about 1,000 tonnes of zirconium metal produces about 50 tonnes or 60 tonnes of hafnium. The process of recovering hafnium therefore is part of recovering zirconium metal and it's very complex. It's a carbon chlorination process, chemical vapour deposition which basically recovers the zirconium and then the hafnium comes out and goes down through another flow sheet, a very similar flow sheet to pretty use again what we call nuclear grade hafnium and there are many opportunities down that path to take off both the zirconium and the hafnium for other uses and other replications. So the current demand and again surprisingly superalloys are the big driver for hafnium have been for the last 10 so years, regardless most people relate to the nuclear industry but really hafnium is used in superalloys and I'll show you a bit more about that in a moment and various other applications that I'll try and give an overview but the principle of 67 tonnes a year is the current known demand and as I'll try and demonstrate the demand is really limited by supply. How filling out in the marketplace talking to end users around the world is that the demand for hafnium would be much greater if there was guaranteed and sustainable supply. So these are just running through the applications, industrial gas turbines, in other words the high temperature part of a gas turbine, nickel cobalt alloys are used, if you throw in 1 to 2% hafnium into that you raise its operating temperature from 1,400 degrees to 2,000 degrees centigrade. So it has fuel efficiencies, emissions minimisation and just general overall better operability. The same applies to jet engines, same principle, same process although I should add that the bigger use of hafnium is in industrial gas turbines. Then to rocket nozzles, the SpaceX Falcon 9 uses about a niobium hafnium alloy, it's an 80 to 20% niobium to hafnium or 90 to 10% depending who you talk to and people like SpaceX and all the other different new generation space companies are looking at these and much bigger demand for that kind of alloy going forward in rocket nozzles. Plasma art cutting tools, hafnium oxide, catalyst for making things like plastics, PVCs and those sort of things, again I'm not going to go into the technical details of those because first of all I'm incapable of doing that and secondly I don't have time, fortunately. Nuclear industry, I've already talked about the applications in the nuclear industry, not a big driver currently as you'd appreciate the nuclear industry has gone a little bit flat in the last 10 or so years but certainly places like China, huge building effort going on into the nuclear industry presently 170 planned nuclear reactors in the next 20 odd years or 30 years. And then to next generation, some of the interesting things about hafnium oxide and hafnium is its ability to act as a dielectric which then can be used for memory storage, for computer chips and we're already seeing it creeping into the industry. What was probably asked 10 years ago by a fund manager in New York, do we have any hafnium and I said well yes but why and he said well I think it's going to impact on the IT industry in the next decade or so, we've probably bit out of his timing but we're now starting to see fairly dramatic changes, fairly dramatic interest in developing these science of the business and you won't be able to read that but really it's what it's saying up there is this new ferroelectric capacity of hafnium oxide does make it ideal for memory storage, they can do amazing things, they can do atomic layer deposition, you can put it in molecular thicknesses which means both your storage systems, your processing systems become smaller, lighter, less energy required, no heat, all of those sort of things which you can see going forward will be very interesting in the computing industry. The ferroelectric capacity of hafnium oxide, really interesting, it converts heat energy into electricity so you can use it in automobiles, engines, large things and one of the things we've started to hear about in the last probably only six months is the potential to use it for like solar applications, can you imagine putting it on the roof of a house or an apartment, you can coat the roofing material with hafnium oxide, it basically will absorb the heat and generate electricity so you're talking about a different kind of solar panel. Now reality on time zone, I've got no idea but certainly some of the people that understand this think it's a high probability going forward into the future. So the car industry, okay we're talking about electric cars, we're talking about replacement of the internal combustion engine but certainly in the short term capturing that heat, just the waste heat coming off the exhaust system of a car or truck can be converted into electricity. It may help replace the use of batteries, it may help replace the use of alternators in the vehicle engine. It sounds counterintuitive to where we're going down the electric car industry but certainly the big motor manufacturers have been looking at these applications for a number of years. The radiative cooling, basically you can put hafnium oxide film on glass such that the incoming solar radiation hits the glass, the light penetrates into the inside of the building but the energy, the heat energy gets reflected back off that glass but it goes back at a frequency that doesn't reheat the atmosphere. In other words you've got the incoming heat but you're not reflecting energy back into the atmosphere to reheat it again and the reverse component of that can be used for air conditioning inside a building. You can actually absorb the heat out of the building and convert it to electricity and do away with air conditioning, internal air conditioning. These things are in development, there's no commercial applications of these but there are things that we're seeing may come into fruition in the next 10 or so years. I'm sorry I think you've most have finished your lunch fortunately but it's cancer treatment application so what happens is that you can insert hafnium oxide nanoparticles inside a tumour, it becomes a focus for x-rays and radiation and then the hafnium oxide absorbs that radiation and then it pumps out radioactivity and radioisotopes from inside the tumour so you're basically killing the tumours from the inside and this is an application that we have so it's starting to be used and starting to become, I won't say common but certainly the medical fraternity are becoming aware of it. Pricing structure, who knows? I mean if you think the rare earth industry is opaque, hafnium industry is extremely opaque and one of the reasons for it is such small volume traded, there are very few limited suppliers of the material, it gets into strategic applications so you start talking strategic, you start talking defence and you find very quickly that nobody really knows in terms of volumes and pricing but you can see there it's probably sitting today hafnium metal at around about $1,1100 a kilogram, hafnium oxide generally is probably about half that price depending on its quality. So the supply, the big supplier is a reaver in France coming out of its new, as a zirconium nuclear plant and then ATI in the US also out of its nuclear zirconium plant. Westinghouse was a smaller producer, we're not sure about Westinghouse's future but outside of that you can see some coming out of Russia, some coming out of China. There is an interesting statement there, it says recycling or revert, nobody can show us where that's coming from so that mysterious 20 tonnes or 10 tonnes I think it is really not sure if that is recycling, we don't believe it is recycling. And the total world supply on a yearly basis will fit in that 40 foot C container so we're not talking about large volume commodity material, we're talking about something that's very finite, relatively small tonnage but with the potential to be much greater. So that graph there says the supply is about 70 tonnes, you saw the demand on an earlier slide saying about 67 tonnes, as I said before, we're very convinced that as the supply increases the demand will also escalate. So there's a graph, the bottom graph shows some guesstimate and that's the best way to describe it of where half the industry is going to go. The top green line is called the high expectations, I'm sure that if that was analysed again today or in the next six months that would start to look like being a realistic expectation that somewhere over the next 10 years we'll see that a demand go from 70 tonnes a year to probably 160 tonnes a year, it may even go greater and again I don't want to get too excited about the volume but it's interesting in terms of value, it is a high value product of great increasing strategic and scientific demand. So where does that leave us, why is Alcain here talking about happening and it basically goes back to our Dubbo project, it's located in what we call the central west region, the east coast and the state of New South Wales, about 400 kilometres from Sydney, it's a great place to operate, it's Dubbo itself is a city of about 45,000 people, it has great infrastructure, it's a major agricultural centre, power, gas, water, engineering and cost people and the project is located about 25 kilometres south of the town, it's a very big resource, our open pit resource is probably 100 years, but a million tonnes a year we can produce these metals for almost forever, we talk about a 35 year reserve life and that's just an interim number to satisfy the financiers and again just to explain why we've gone down the Hafnium path, probably four years ago an aerospace company came to us and asked that question, what are you doing with your Hafnium, we said well it goes with the Zirconium product, it just goes out as part of the Zirconium products in that ratio 40 to 150 to one that's in the ore body and they said well we think there's a growing demand, if you guys think you can recover it then there's a potential for us to be buyers of that material, so we progressed from there, it became an add on if you like and in a moment I'll show you the revenue stream, it's an add on and basically in the meantime we've charged off, we've gone, we're working through the project and current status is we've run the pilot plant now for eight years and Adrian talked about Anstow, that pilot plant's been located at Anstow and people often ask me why eight years, why is it taking so long and it's really not taking so long, it's a function of de-risking, optimising the products because we have quite a complex product suite coming out, we have multiple customers, we don't have one or two or three customers, we've probably got about 40 currently on our books, so you're talking about different products, different quality, different particle size, different chemistry right across the board so you have to be very strong technically managing each of the material, so going through that all of our approvals in place, state and federal, front end engineering and design was done about two years ago, that's leading now into a bankable study and I'll show why at the moment, we've got Utatec, the large finished technology engineering company working with us to provide us for the EPC and SMBC are our financial advisers and these guys based in Sydney and I'll show you an interesting development of probably the last 12 months about our modular design and our staged build, first of all just going back to the flow sheet, it actually, that's a cartoon of course obviously, it's actually simpler than what it seems, it's a sulfuric acid roast leached process, so basically we take whole of all, we crush it up, we grind it, we mix it with sulfuric acid, we heat it up, we take that material, we wash that with water and in doing that we get all of the metals that we want are all in solution and fortunately we don't get too many other contaminants, so the solvent extraction stage is going forward from that, are relatively straightforward, this is not, I'd use the words, rocket science but it is a workable and demonstrable flow sheet that we've now operated for a number of years and down the right hand side you can see the products, a number of zirconium products, the hafnium product and just a quick explanation, as I showed before, hafnium recovery from zirconium metal plants is very complex flow sheet, we actually do standard solvent extraction technology, this is something that we've developed with Anstone, it works well, we basically are getting from probably 80% or 90% of our hafnium recovered at a product quality level at presently which we can sell, further on you can see ferronive in which we may can sell and then on the rare earths on site because of lanthanum cedar in pricing structure we'll basically separate those out and leave them, the yttrium we will use probably ourselves to make stabilised yttrium zirconium products and then the main core of the rare earths, the prasinium, the adenium etc, right through the lutetium go off to our partner in Vietnam for separation and recovery. So I mentioned the modular design, so that flow sheet that I showed you, if we did that at a million tons a year it's about a billion dollar US project, a big project, a high-cost project, so trying to reduce that explosion, reduce that front-end risk we decided to look at a modulus type construct and basically we are talking about building it in trains, now if you know the LNG industry, the LNG industry builds its processing facilities in trains, a big LNG plant might have 10 trains and it's because they do it in stages, we're looking to the train one, train two, up to what we call stage one which is a half million ton a year operation and then train three and train four which become second stage and in doing that we can sort of bring the capital cost down to manageable levels for a company of alcane size, we can certainly get to those sorts of numbers and we're talking about 500 to 600 million dollar market, sorry capital cost for stage one and I won't try and go through and explain it but you can see that stage one includes some components of that plant, some plants that operation which are a million ton a year, so it's already in place to do the full capacity. The timing, we should be in production if all goes well in 2019 and then the stage two should come on stream sometime 22, 23 after we go forward. Output and again this is a talk about hafnium, so you can see hafnium is highlighted, yes we can produce 200 tonnes a year or 250 or 300 tonnes a year, obviously no point in doing that in a market which is currently 80 tonnes, so our start up capacity is somewhere around about 25 tonnes to 50 tonnes at full operation, so we've scaled and we'll scale that output to make sure that we don't go in and sort of demolish the market and you can see the other products that I've just listed down there, I won't go into those at this stage. It's worth just showing this, this is our revenue pie chart if you like, so you can see this goes back to what we were talking about earlier, it's a polymetallic deposit which gives it a revenue stream, a diverse revenue stream which is one of our great advantages going forward. We're not driven by two or three magnet rare earths to drive the economics of the project, we're not driven by zirconium for example, but the hafnium and the niobium are equally important, they're valuable attributes, that hafnium by the way the 10% is only in there about 25 tonnes a year, that's something like $500 or $600 a kilogram, so way below the current mental price. The revenues, stage one revenues, it generates margins of $100 million a year out of that, once you go to stage two you're talking about $200, $250 million a year revenue margin. That's a very good project in terms of something that's going to have a total capital cost of around a billion dollars. So I'm sorry to sort of drift it offline, but the idea was to bring the double project into the scheme of things at the end, but we think it's a fascinating project. 15 years of really hard work's gone into it to get to where we are today, we are construction ready and we're putting together financing. Thank you.


The volcanic structures around the world release volatile substances into the environment, both during their passive and active degassing phases. The island of Volcano is characterized by sulfotaric degassing, primarily occurring in the summit region, Fossa Crater, and in the peripheral area near Levant Bay. This degassing is normally interrupted by periodic geochemical crises caused by increased volcanic input, resulting in a sudden increase in the degassing rate. During these events, the volatile substance emission rate increases significantly, reaching levels of 89 tons per day of sulfur dioxide, SO2, and 11,596 grams per square meter per day of carbon dioxide, CO2. These high rates of emission were observed in November 2021, with the mean monthly flux of SO2 from the volcanic plume increasing to 89 tons per day and the mean monthly flux of CO2 from the soil rising to 11,596 grams per square meter per day. The average annual baseline value of SO2 output was estimated at 7,700 tons per day during. This article was authored by Fabio Vita, Benedetto Schiavo, Claudio Inguaggiato, and others.
