Rewind, a nature-powered carbon removal company, has launched the world’s first commercial deep mine carbon storage project, located 1.3 km underground in Georgia, a nation in the Caucasus region of the Black Sea’s coast. The facility, DMS Georgia, marks the first time certified carbon credits will be issued through the preservation of plant-based carbon in naturally oxygen-free underground environments. The milestone establishes a new global approach to scaling anoxic biomass storage, the company said, with its own low-energy, permanent carbon removal method. By preserving surplus plant matter in oxygen-free conditions that prevent decomposition, the company ach…

On Bloomberg’s “ETF IQ” on Monday, REX Financial chief executive Greg King made his most forceful public case yet for Solana’s role in real-world finance—especially for stablecoins—and explained why his firm built a 1940 Act, staking-enabled ETF around SOL rather than waiting for a traditional ’33 Act spot product. Solana Vs. Ethereum King did not hedge when asked to put the Solana-versus-Ethereum debate into plain language for mainstream investors: “Eth is the second biggest crypto. Solana is basically top five. A lot of people think Solana is the up and comer that will overthrow the area. It is a very controversial debate. I’ve probably made friends and enemies even su…

Rich Dad Poor Dad author Robert Kiyosaki says he’s buying more gold, silver, Bitcoin, and Ethereum as he prepares for what he believes could be a sharp economic downturn. In a post on X on Sunday, Kiyosaki warned that markets may be heading toward trouble. He said he’s shifting more of his money into what he calls “real money,” suggesting he sees these assets as safer than cash. Kiyosaki said his view on gold is influenced by economist Jim Rickards. He also repeated his long-held call that Bitcoin could reach $250,000, arguing that BTC acts as protection against what he describes as the Federal Reserve’s “fake money.” He pointed to growing interest in Ethereum, c…

Australia’s richest person is urging Rio Tinto’s (ASX, LON: RIO) incoming chief executive, Simon Trott, to move the company’s headquarters to Western Australia, while casting doubt on the miner’s Simandou iron ore project in Guinea. Gina Rinehart, whose Hancock Prospecting holds multiple iron ore joint ventures with Rio, made the comments as the miner reported its lowest first-half iron ore export volumes in a decade. Severe cyclones earlier this year caused widespread flooding and logistical disruptions, hitting Rio’s Pilbara operations hard. The company shipped 150.6 million tonnes of iron ore between January and June, down 4.9% from the same period last year. W…

Rio Tinto (ASX, LSE: RIO) has agreed to pay nearly $139 million to settle a long-standing class action lawsuit accusing the company of concealing development delays at its $7 billion giant copper mine in Mongolia. The lawsuit, led by US hedge fund Pentwater Capital, alleged that the Australian miner had failed to accurately disclose the status of the underground expansion of the Oyu Tolgoi mine over a one-year period between 2018 and 2019. Specifically, Pentwater claimed that Rio, together with its Canadian subsidiary Turquoise Hill Resources, had violated federal securities laws by making assurances that the expansion was going as planned, when it was in fact 2.5…

Rio Tinto (LON: RIO) (ASX:RIO) has approved a shift in underground development at its Oyu Tolgoi copper-gold mine in Mongolia, pausing progress in the Entrée Resources joint venture (JV) area due to ongoing delays in license transfers.

While limited development will continue in parts of Panel 1 outside the JV boundary, Rio Tinto confirmed that resources will now be reallocated…

Rio Tinto (ASX: RIO) is reportedly in talks with China’s state-owned Chinalco over an asset-for-equity swap that would cut Chinalco’s stake in the world’s second largest miner to about 11%. The deal, according to Reuters sources familiar with the matter, would see Chinalco exchange part of its Rio Tinto holdings for stakes in some of the miner’s key assets. The move could free Rio to restart share buybacks and pursue new strategic deals that have been constrained by its complex ownership structure. Neither Rio Tinto nor Chinalco provided immediate comment. The Chinese miner first acquired a near 15% stake in Rio Tinto Plc, the London-listed arm of the dual-lis…

Rio Tinto’s (ASX, LON: RIO) new chief executive Simon Trott has launched a sweeping overhaul of the miner’s structure, consolidating operations into three core divisions while placing several non-core assets under review.

Matthew Holcz has been appointed chief executive of iron ore, Rio Tinto’s biggest profit driver. The newly unified division will combine Western Australian operations with Iron Ore Company of Canada (IoC) and, once operational, the Simandou project in Guin…

Rio Tinto (ASX: RIO) will halt its development of the long-delayed Jadar lithium project in Serbia as the Australian miner looks to tighten its purse strings and shift focus elsewhere, according to media reports. On Thursday, Bloomberg reported that Rio intends to place the near $3 billion lithium project into “care and maintenance”, citing an internal memo that was later confirmed by a company spokesperson. Rio Tinto did not respond to MINING.COM’s request for comment. This move essentially ends Rio’s two-decade-long quest to tap into one of the world’s largest lithium resources. The company had estimated that Jadar could produce 58,000 tonnes of refined batt…

Rio Tinto (ASX, LON: RIO) chief executive Simon Trott has outlined a plan to generate $5 billion to $10 billion through divestments and productivity growth, as he moves to simplify the structure of the world’s second largest miner. Trott, speaking in his first major strategy briefing almost five months into the job, said he wants Rio to become the world’s “most valued” miner and that after executing his plan the company will be “stronger, sharper and simpler”. The strategy centres on narrowing Rio’s portfolio to iron ore, copper, aluminum and lithium while applying tighter capital discipline across the business. Rio shares jumped almost 4% in Sydney on Thursday t…

Rio Tinto (ASX, LON: RIO) and its partners in Guinea’s Simandou iron ore project have reportedly secured corporate tax concessions worth more than half off the standard rate for key parts of their $23.5 -billion development, regulatory filings show. Guinea’s ruling junta has approved a 15% corporate tax rate for the first 17 years of operations at the railway and port that will transport Simandou ore to global markets, the Australian Financial Review reports. That is well below Guinea’s usual 35% rate and less than half the 30% paid by major firms in Australia. News of the deal come just days after the government signalled Rio Tinto may be required to build a loca…

Rio Tinto (ASX: RIO) may be forced to make expensive downstream investments in Guinea as the military-led government pushes for local refining tied to the giant Simandou iron ore project. Authorities in the West African nation, which seized power in 2021, have demanded that miners present firm plans to build domestic processing facilities. Officials argue that smelters and refineries are essential for Guinea to capture more value from its resources and to drive broader economic development. The policy echoes a broader resource-nationalism trend across Africa, where governments are pressing companies to process minerals locally. In Guinea, the world’s second-larges…
