Fort Mojave Indian Tribe Fights for Water Rights Amidst Colorado River Disputes

Fort Mojave Indian Tribe Fights for Water Rights Amidst Colorado River Disputes

The Fort Mojave Indian Tribe is actively fighting for its water rights along the Colorado River, which flows for 17 miles through its reservation spanning Arizona, California, and Nevada. Chairman Timothy Williams highlights the tribe's reliance on the river for economic and cultural sustenance, including a significant alfalfa and upland cotton operation that funds essential services like healthcare, housing, and education. Despite having substantial water rights—133,000 acre-feet annually—the tribe faces challenges as water levels drop, making it difficult to pump water for their crops. Last winter, the tribe's pump was inoperable for four months due to low water, a first-time occurrence. The tribe is often excluded from negotiations between states and the federal government regarding the river's future, despite 22 out of 30 tribes having established water rights, with others still having unresolved claims. The Secretary for the Fort Mojave Indian Tribal Council, Colleen Neolge Garcia, emphasizes the trib...

Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy Highlights Graphite Creek Project for U.S. Critical Mineral Security

Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy Highlights Graphite Creek Project for U.S. Critical Mineral Security

Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy has emphasized the strategic importance of Graphite One's Graphite Creek Project in Alaska. This project is identified as a potentially significant domestic source of graphite, crucial for strengthening U.S. critical mineral supply chains and reducing reliance on foreign sources. Governor Dunleavy's support for the project includes its nomination as a federal High-Priority Infrastructure Project, leading to its acceptance as a 'covered project' under the federal FAST-41 permitting process in June 2025. This designation makes it the first Alaska mining project listed on the FAST-41 Permitting Dashboard, which aims to enhance federal agency coordination, increase permitting transparency, and provide a comprehensive permitting timetable for infrastructure projects. According to the U.S. Geological Survey, Graphite Creek is the largest known graphite deposit in the United States, and new estimates suggest it could meet the nation's graphite needs for a century. The U.S. currently ...

Philadelphia Region Gas Prices Reach Record High on Labor Day, Drivers Express Frustration

Gas prices in the Philadelphia region reached a record high on Labor Day, causing significant frustration among drivers. According to AAA spokesperson Jana Tidwell, this marks the highest Labor Day gas price on record. Drivers in the five-county Philadelphia region are paying an average of $4.36 per gallon, while South Jersey averages $4.24, and Delaware drivers are paying approximately $4.15 per gallon. These prices are at least $1 per gallon higher than they were at the same time last year across all three regions. Drivers like Jerome Battle and James Thompson expressed their dismay, noting the continuous increase in prices. Shana Bridges from North Jersey considered delaying her fill-up due to the high costs and is contemplating trading in her SUV, citing the cumulative burden of high rent, groceries, and fuel.

Viking Mines Advances Towards Becoming a Domestic U.S. Tungsten Producer

Viking Mines Advances Towards Becoming a Domestic U.S. Tungsten Producer

Viking Mines (ASX:VKA) is progressing its Linka tungsten project in Nevada, aiming to become one of the first domestic tungsten producers in the United States. The company acquired the Linka asset, which includes three brownfields tungsten mines, in December of the previous year. Recent test work has confirmed a 56.9% tungsten trioxide (WO3) concentrate at a 76% recovery rate, indicating the project's metallurgical potential. The Linka mine, which ceased production in the 1950s due to falling prices, is believed to still hold significant mineralization. Viking Mines is currently undertaking its first drilling program at the project in over 40 years, with an initial plan for approximately 63 drill holes and over 3,000 meters of drilling. The primary target areas are around the historical Linka mine to confirm past drill results and to test areas where mineralization extends under cover. The company is also working on environmental studies and other metallurgical tests in preparation for submitting a mining ...
