Hi northfork, I hope you're doing well? I'm still battling to get to the truth with the medical profession! Wish me luck! But I'm like a dog with a bone, I won't give up, until I have answers, and some heads have rolled, as I hate continual cover ups.

I really hope HE1 starts to come up trumps! It has all the hallmarks of a good investment, but time will tell. Let's hope the time is now! Time to get the PR rolling at HE1.

Peter Bleksley ex Met Detective is doing his latest tour "The Makings Of A Murderer, The Undercover Detective" starting tonight. I'm gutted he's not at a theatre near me, but if you've seen him on GB News on Saturday nights, you'll know he says it as it is, so his roadshow should be really entertaining! Venues are listed through entertainers.co.uk and if anyone goes, please let me know what you thought, as I'd love to see him in the flesh one day!

I'll repost once he's gone, as he's likely to try and get both threads pulled down. What a really sad and rude individual this person is.

He's after having the thread pulled down. Clearly doesn't like the reference to the possibility of US involvement and funding! I hope we've all reported!

Government documents show LNG exports could deliver multi-billion-dollar annual revenue once operational, depending on market prices and final project configuration. The Paris-based International Energy Agency (IEA) forecasts global LNG demand to rise more than 25% between 2022 and 2030, with Asia expected to account for over 80% of incremental consumption.

Tembo Nickel, operated under a framework with Kabanga Nickel, targets one of the world’s higher-grade undeveloped nickel sulphide deposits. Tanzania has required that downstream processing occur locally, with the project expected to supply feedstock for stainless steel and battery-grade materials. Nickel demand for EV batteries is projected to increase substantially over the next decade, driven by cathode-chemistry trends.

Mahenge Graphite is part of a cluster of graphite assets in the Ulanga area, which has attracted investors due to high ore purity and suitability for anode-grade processing. Tanzania ranks among the world’s largest natural graphite holders, and government policy aims to expand domestic beneficiation to capture more value from global battery-supply chains.

Talks between Hassan and Lentz also addressed maritime security, counter-terrorism cooperation, health partnerships and academic links, The Star reported. The United States has supported Tanzanian port and coastal-surveillance upgrades as part of wider Indian Ocean security initiatives.

US commercial presence in Tanzania has grown, with more than 400 American companies operating in energy, logistics, agri-processing, finance and technology. Improved investment-climate indicators, including streamlined licensing and revised local content rules, have been cited by US businesses as factors boosting confidence.

As bne IntelliNews previously reported, Tanzania is expanding domestic processing as part of its minerals industrialisation agenda. A nickel and copper smelting plant in Bahi District, Dodoma Region, is 85% complete, with commissioning of the first production line due in February 2026. The plant will process 300 tonnes of ore per day and provide upstream support for critical minerals supply chains."

Tanzania and the United States have advanced negotiations on three major investment projects following talks between President Samia Suluhu Hassan and Acting US Ambassador Andrew Lentz at Chamwino State House, The Citizen reported on December 9.

Tanzania's State House described the meeting as a “defining step” in bilateral economic cooperation, signalling renewed momentum behind long-running project discussions.

Officials cited by the newspaper said negotiations covered Tanzania’s proposed $42bn LNG development, the $942mn Tembo Nickel project Black Rock Mining’s (ASX:BKT) $300mn Mahenge Graphite mine. Collectively, the three schemes represent a significant share of Tanzania’s medium-term investment pipeline, which the government has estimated at over $60bn across energy and strategic minerals.

US commercial engagement has increased in the region, with Tanzania identified by US agencies as a priority East African market for energy investment, infrastructure financing and supply-chain diversification. “The United States is committed to a relationship based not on aid dependency but on shared prosperity,” Lentz, accompanied by senior US officials, is quoted as saying.

While no specific commitments have been made public, future US involvement could centre on development finance, with the US International Development Finance Corporation and EXIM Bank positioned to support LNG-linked infrastructure and mineral-processing facilities through long-tenor loans, guarantees and export financing tied to US equipment.

Given that Washington has identified nickel and graphite as strategic minerals, there is also scope for supply-chain partnerships, offtake arrangements and technical support for downstream processing. Such involvement would align with US efforts to diversify battery material sourcing under recent industrial and climate legislation.

US private-sector engagement may also occur through engineering firms, liquefaction-technology providers, and mining-services companies that supply project equipment and expertise. Investor interest is expected to depend on risk-mitigation tools and clarity on Tanzania’s local-content and beneficiation rules.

President Hassan said Tanzania is prepared to complete the remaining procedural steps to progress the projects. “As a non-aligned country, Tanzania is open, ready and committed to working with all partners who respect our sovereignty and share our vision for prosperity,” she said. Her administration has been revising fiscal and regulatory frameworks since 2021 to attract capital to the energy and mining sectors.

Tanzania holds an estimated 57 trillion cubic feet (1.61 trillion cubic metres) of recoverable natural gas, mostly offshore in blocks operated by majors including Equinor (NYSE:EQNR, OSE:EQNR) and Shell (LSE:SHEL, NYSE:SHEL).

Let's hope it comes to pass, the US shows interest, and may be even Elon will provide the cheque book. GLA. Holding long and strong.

Thanks, but there are many contributors here who would be equally worthy of such an accolade, so thank you so much, but I'll share the accolade with all of them :)

Surely with our Blue Star involvement, we have to be a front runner for American investment and purchase agreements?

At this moment in time, I don't think I would mind moving to Tanzania!

Not sure why that post about the tanker was removed, it's not as though there's much to discuss here at present, and as far as world affairs go, that news is something for us all to keep an eye on, imo.

Acquisitions are hotting up in the US!

"Pulsar Helium enters Michigan with Hybrid Hydrogen buy

By Dominic Ellis

on Jan 05, 2026

Pulsar Helium has entered the Michigan market after buying exploration firm Hybrid Hydrogen for $80,000.

Hybrid’s primary asset is an exclusive mineral rights option to lease around 5,742 gross acres in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, targeting non-hydrocarbon gases – primarily helium.

Pulsar Helium said the acquisition fits with its strategy of leveraging expertise from its Topaz project “into geologically similar regions.”

Thomas Abraham-Jones, President and CEO, said the deal enabled it to strengthen its helium exploration portfolio “for a modest price”.

Its Topaz Project in northern Minnesota, with a stream that contains helium-4, helium-3 and carbon dioxide, is targeting production early 2027. It received expression of interest financing worth $12.5m from Michigan-based University Bank to fund plant construction last August."

A post flash up suggesting that HE1 have received an offer for its acquisition? Did anyone else see it? I pressed on chat to update a few minutes ago, and it flashed up but then disappeared as quickly as it appeared.

I'm firmly convinced now that the only way of making any money in the markets is in rare earth metals and gases, especially helium. I believe we are in the right place folks, at the right time, imo, we just need this to come to fruition before the world falls in to a massive black hole of conflict. Come on HE1, bring us some joy at last! By the way, this is not intended as financial advice, it's just on seeing how the world is unravelling very quickly, with talk of more and more war/conflict, it strengthens my belief in my personal investment here. Anyone else feeling this right now?

Whoknowswhy if youre wanting to get back in with Grannysnuffer and the rest of the TW crew, keep working on it, as you're failing miserably presently. I'm certain there will be a rise in sp very soon :) at least I've posted lots of factual info over the past 2/3 years, whilst you've posted none!

I'm still wondering if we might be aiming to buying out Blue Star? Their current mcap is around 22 mill Aus dollars which is around 12 mill sterling, so it wouldn't be an impossibility with the right backing of an injection of funds for us from a major investing in Tanz operations. Is this just wishful thinking on my part? Is this why there is a hold up with the signing ceremony in Tanz whilst everything fits in to place both in Tanz and US? and is this why Nishant was brought in, to act as an enabler, with many connections, especially in the Middle East?
