by Dr. Allen Alper, PhD Economic Geology and Petrology, Columbia University, NYC, USA
Chatham Rock Phosphate Limited (TSXV: NZP, NZAX: CRP) is the custodian of New Zealand’s only material resource of ultralow cadmium, environmentally friendly pastoral phosphate fertilizer, and aims to be the premier supplier of direct application phosphate to the New Zealand and global agricultural sector. The low-cost resource located 400 meters under the water offshore New Zealand, represents one of New Zealand’s most valuable mineral assets and is of huge strategic significance because phosphate is essential to maintain New Zealand’s high agricultural productivity. We learned from Mr. Chris Castle, who's President and CEO of Chatham Rock Phosphate, that once they are fully permitted they will be able to operate in three or four years' time with no capital cost, and with established markets for their product in several countries of Asia-Pacific and Australasia, particularly India, Pakistan, Indonesia, Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Australia, and New Zealand. The recent decision of the European Union and European Council to put restrictions on the level of cancer-causing cadmium in phosphate excludes rock from most of the major phosphate exporters around the world and gives Chatham Rock Phosphate a huge advantage in the industry.

Interview with Rick Rule about the Sprott Natural Resource Symposium
by Allen M. Alper Jr, President of Metals News
I had the pleasure of talking with Rick Rule about the Sprott Natural Resource Symposium that will take place in Vancouver on July 30 - August 2nd, 2019. There will be top-notch speakers, and the living legend panel, made up of people who have built multi-billion-dollar natural resource based businesses from scratch. Each of almost 80 public company exhibitors at the conference is an issuer that is owned in Sprott managed accounts, which guarantees that Sprott has vetted every single exhibitor. According to Rick Rule, the Sprott Natural Resource Symposium is the world's most important annual event for high-net-worth retail investors in the natural resource business. It has stood the test of time for nearly 30 years, and, this year, it could be especially useful to investors because current share prices are at real lows coming out of a long bear market.
