AngloGold Ashanti (NYSE: AU) has withdrawn from three early-stage projects in Argentina currently held by Canadian junior Latin Metals (TSXV: LMS), citing a shift in the group’s greenfield exploration strategy. This week, AngloGold provided informed Latin Metals that it plans to terminate its option to acquire a majority interest in the Organullo, Ana Maria and Trigal properties, effective in three months.

Angola’s state diamond company Endiama has submitted a formal bid for Anglo American’s (LON: AAL) majority stake in De Beers, in a sharp shift from its earlier position of seeking only a minority share. Endiama chief executive officer, José Manuel Ganga Júnior, told Bloomberg News the company had presented “a concrete and well-defined proposal” to Anglo and was moving ahead with “subsequent actions.” The move intensifies the scramble for control of the world’s largest diamond producer, pitting Angola against neighbouring Botswana, which already owns 15% of De Beers. Botswana holds the right to match any external offer and has framed its potential bid as a “matter …

Angola’s state diamond company Endiama has formally submitted a bid for a minority stake in De Beers, intensifying the scramble for influence over the world’s largest diamond producer as parent company Anglo American (LON: AAL) prepares to sell. The mineral resources ministry confirmed Wednesday that Endiama lodged a “fully financed offer.” Minister Diamantino Pedro Azevedo said the proposal aims to build a pan-African ownership model that prevents any single country from dominating De Beers while safeguarding its independence and competitiveness. “Our bid is designed to foster a partnership in which Botswana, Namibia, South Africa and Angola all participate mean…

Animoca Brands, a crypto gaming heavyweight based in Hong Kong, has announced plans to go public in the United States by merging with Currenc Group. The move is structured as a reverse merger, with Currenc set to acquire 100 percent of Animoca’s shares. Once the dust settles, Animoca’s shareholders would hold around 95 percent of the newly formed public company. The deal is targeting a 2026 close, pending approval from both shareholders and regulators. Speed Over Tradition Rather than go through the longer process of a traditional IPO, Animoca is opting for a quicker route to the Nasdaq. This reverse merger gives them a faster track while still unlocking access to U.S. c…

Solana (SOL) is attempting to reclaim a strong resistance zone for the fourth time, which has led some investors to suggest that the rally won’t last long. Nonetheless, on-chain data suggests that SOL’s next leg up could be starting. Solana Breaks Out Of Triangle Pattern On Thursday, Solana hit a six-month high of $216 after breaking out of one of its most crucial resistance zones. The cryptocurrency bounced 16% from Monday’s lows and reclaimed the $200 barrier as support on Wednesday, closing the day above this area. SOL briefly reclaimed this level during the early August breakout, but the recent market corrections dragged its price to the $175-$195 area. Amid Thursd…

Log in to today's North American session Market wrap for October 11 Markets kicked off the week with a TACO rebound — Trump Always Chickens Out — following a bloodshed Friday that briefly ended the euphoric “everything rally.” Last week closed with fearful price action after days of relentless gains. US–China trade war tensions resurfaced, shaking risk sentiment and triggering a massive wave of crypto liquidations that saw some altcoins plunge 40–70%, while ETH and Bitcoin wicked down nearly 20% around 16:45 ET on Friday. But sentiment turned fast. A calming post from President Trump downplaying the severity of the trade spat helped markets breathe again over the wee…

Log in to today’s North American session Recap for July 8, 2025 After a volatile past day session, this one was way calmer as Trump announced yet another delay in tariff deadlines – From the approaching July 9th to August 1st, apparently the final warning. The session began with the US Dollar leading to the upside, followed by general mean-reversion all across asset classes, it seems that participants will be awaiting for more headlines/economic data before moving further. The biggest winner of the day was Copper which got propped up by the latest announcement of 50% tariffs on all US Imports – CME Futures finish the session up close to 10%, marking session highs at $…

In another (bold) move towards institutional acceptance of digital assets (during an obviously turbulent phase), Goldman Sachs has announced a $2 billion acquisition of Innovator Capital Management. What does this move mean? It will essentially help the Wall Street giant expand its presence in the crypto ETF market. In a 1 December 2025 announcement, Goldman Sachs said that the acquisition will add $28 billion in assets under supervision (AUS) to Goldman Sachs Asset Management’s broad range of custom portfolio solutions and active ETF capabilities. The deal is expected to close in the second quarter of 2026. It will bring 159 ETFs into Goldman Sachs’ AUM. More importa…

Ethereum is showing renewed strength after days of intense selling pressure and widespread uncertainty across the crypto market. Following a sharp drop below the $3,300 level, bulls are now attempting to reclaim $3,600, with the next major objective set at $4,000 — a level that could confirm a shift in market momentum if conquered. Amid this recovery effort, key on-chain data highlights a surprising move from one of the market’s most closely watched traders — the so-called Anti-CZ Whale. This investor gained notoriety for shorting ASTER shortly after Changpeng Zhao (CZ) — the former CEO of Binance and one of the most influential figures in crypto — publicly mentioned bu…

The crypto market faced a violent downturn, with Ethereum breaking below the $3,100 level while Bitcoin lost the critical $100,000 mark, triggering widespread liquidation and fear-driven selling. Panic quickly rippled across the market, and sentiment flipped sharply bearish as traders rushed to reduce exposure, price targets vanished from social media, and risk assets saw a cascade of exits. In moments like these, emotions often outweigh fundamentals — and this week was a clear reminder of that dynamic. However, even in periods of sharp fear, not all market participants behave the same. Some notable players have begun shifting their stance, hinting that strategic positi…

Ethereum has officially broken below key support levels, and market sentiment is rapidly deteriorating as major assets across the crypto landscape continue to slide. Analysts are increasingly calling for the arrival of a new bear market, noting that both Bitcoin and the leading altcoins have lost critical technical zones that previously held the broader structure together. ETH, now trading at multi-month lows, is feeling the full weight of cascading liquidations, strong sell-side volume, and evaporating investor confidence. Adding to the growing uncertainty, Lookonchain reports a striking development: in just 10 days, more than $61 million in profit has disappeared for …

Aster has come under heavy selling pressure after an abrupt price spike triggered by Changpeng Zhao’s comment on Sunday, in which the Binance founder publicly stated he bought ASTER with his personal funds. The comment initially sent the token sharply higher as traders reacted to the endorsement, but the rally was short-lived. As broader market weakness intensified and Bitcoin and Ethereum led a widespread downturn, ASTER retraced aggressively, erasing most of its post-announcement gains. The reversal has fueled speculation that speculative flows are unwinding just as risk appetite evaporates across crypto. Major assets are under pressure, with BTC losing key support zo…

Overview: After selling off sharply last Friday, the US dollar consolidated on Monday and Tuesday before taking another leg lower yesterday. It remains under pressure today, though it has stabilized in late European morning turnover, though even a dismal German industrial production report was unable to deter the euro from rising to almost $1.17. It bottomed near $1.14 last week. The greenback is softer against most the G10 and emerging market currencies. The prospect of a Bank of England rate cut shortly has not deterred the market from extending sterling's recovery. Three regional Fed presidents (Daly, Cook, and Kashkari) appear to be favoring a September rate cut. US r…

Larvotto Resources (ASX: LRV) this week determined the viability of tungsten as a byproduct at its past-producing 100%-owned Hillgrove antimony and gold project in New South Wales, which it aims to bring into commercial production in Q2 2026. The company reported 90% tungsten recovery with a 16X increase in feed grade delivered in recent metallurgical testwork, which it said also indicates a simple and cost-effective processing circuit would produce a saleable tungsten concentrate. Tungsten is the material of choice for a key defense application – what the military calls penetrators – high-density, armour-piercing projectiles. As with other critical minerals key …

The ore will complement feed from the existing Esperanza South pit, strengthening Centinela’s production profile.

To understand whether any major buyers remain in the cryptocurrency market, it's enough to look at the latest report. According to the data, US Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) recorded a net outflow of $869.9 million on Thursday. This marks the second-largest outflow in history, which explains why no one seems willing to buy Bitcoin—even below $97,000. According to SoSoValue, Mini Trust led the withdrawals with $318.2 million in outflows. BlackRock's IBIT saw a net outflow of $256.6 million, while Fidelity's FBTC lost $119.9 million. Grayscale's GBTC, along with ETFs from Ark and 21Shares, Bitwise, VanEck, Invesco, Valkyrie, and Franklin Templeton, also recorded ne…
