-- 巴里克礦業公司(NYSE:B,多倫多證券交易所代碼:ABX.TO)週二宣布,已任命多位高管,並更新了其北美黃金資產持有公司新股權首次公開發行(IPO)的計劃進度。 該公司表示,已任命一支專門負責巴里克北美業務的高階主管團隊。 “他們已成功合作數月。該團隊由經驗豐富、業績卓著的巴里克資深人士組成,在運營、勘探和開發方面擁有深厚的專業知識。” 該團隊向巴里克總裁兼首席執行官馬克·希爾匯報工作,成員包括:首席營運官蒂姆·克里布;首席財務官韋塞爾·哈曼;首席法務官兼公司秘書喬·赫肯多恩;首席技術官梅根·蒂博爾斯;首席人力資源官理查德·巴利;勘探副總裁哈維爾·奧爾圖扎爾總裁;以及可持續發展副總裁阿曼達·斯蒂恩森。 巴里克表示,北美巴里克公司將包含四個位於北美頂級礦業管轄區的一級黃金資產:內華達金礦綜合體的卡林金礦、科爾特斯金礦和綠松石嶺金礦,以及位於多明尼加共和國的普韋布洛維耶霍金礦。北美巴里克公司的資產預計在2025年將生產約200萬盎司黃金,這些黃金歸屬於巴里克的權益。 北美巴里克公司還將包含巴里克全資擁有的位於內華達金礦綜合大樓(NGM)附近的福邁爾金礦計畫。巴里克表示:“福邁爾金礦是本世紀最重要的黃金發現之一,並將成為北美巴里克公司資產組合中一個重要的高品位、低成本增長機會。預計福邁爾金礦最終將根據NGM合資協議注入NGM合資企業。” 巴里克表示,該公司已確定其認為最適合北美資產首次公開發行(IPO)的架構。北美巴里克公司預計將在紐約進行首次公開發行(IPO),並在多倫多進行二次上市,但需通過美國證券交易委員會(SEC)的常規註冊程序和加拿大招股說明書的資格審查程序。巴里克公司補充說,公司正按計劃推進IPO,預計將於2026年底前完成,但需視市場和其他條件以及必要的審批情況而定。 公司預計,此次IPO將遵守巴里克合資協議中的所有適用承諾。 「巴里克的領導層一直在與紐蒙特礦業公司(Newmont)的對口官員會面,討論如何提升紐蒙特礦業公司的業績、擬議的IPO以及Fourmile礦區出售的時間表。雖然巴里克可以單方面推進IPO,但它正與合資夥伴密切合作,以確保為各方創造並最大化價值。」 巴里克公司股票昨日在加拿大下跌1.2%。昨日在美國交易下跌1%,截至發稿時,美國盤前交易下跌1.6%。

Biofuels Update: Chicago Soybean Complex Slips on High Supply; Palm Oil Up Slightly
The Chicago soybean complex weakened on Tuesday due to ample supply, with US soybean planting at a record pace and the Brazilian harvest almost complete.Pulling away from crude oil prices, the May soybean contract on the Chicago Board of Trade declined 0.19% to $11.75 per bushel. The May soybean oil contract inched down 0.08% to 72.20 cents per pound.Soybean planting in the US has progressed 23% as of April 26, up from the previous year's pace of 17% and the five-year average of 12%, according to US Department of Agriculture data.A more aggressive soybean planting in the US could raise domestic stock levels if China does not increase its purchases, according to DuWayne Bosse of Bolt Marketing, as cited by AgWeb. US President Donald Trump and Chinese leader Xi Jinping are set to meet in mid-May, with market participants hoping for a positive outcome from trade discussions.For the current marketing year through April 23, agriculture data showed that the US has inspected 32.8 million metric tons of soybeans for export, down from 43.2 mmt recorded in the year-ago period.In Brazil, a record crop harvest was nearly completed, and the country was entering its peak soybean export season, according to price reporting agency MySteel.Contrary to Brazil's progress, harvest in Argentina has reportedly slowed to 25% from a normal average of 55% due to persistent rainfall.Weather patterns will be key to global production going forward, with the looming El Nino phenomenon likely to impact supply levels."If El Nino conditions do persist into late 2026, Brazilian soybean production for the 2027 harvest could also be affected. No significant impact on US crops is expected under current conditions," Kpler said.The research firm said there was a 93% chance of the weather phenomenon emerging in Q4, higher than the 20% probability in Q2.In Asia, Malaysian palm oil futures were little changed on Tuesday, as weaker fundamentals weighed on the market.The Bursa Malaysia Derivatives' May and June crude palm oil contracts were up 0.07% to 4,468 Malaysian ringgit ($1,130.85) per metric ton and 4,508 ringgit/mt, respectively.Cargo surveyors reportedly estimated that Malaysian palm oil shipments for the first 25 days of April declined between 15.7% and 16.8% from a month earlier. This followed robust export demand in Q1, which rose 29.1% year over year, according to the Malaysian Palm Oil Council.Improving production outlook following a seasonal low also weighed on sentiment.Nonetheless, Indonesia's plan to raise palm-oil-based biodiesel blending to 50% from the current 40% will serve as a tailwind, boosting domestic consumption and reducing exportable supplies.However, sources cited by The Edge Malaysia said the target rollout of B50 by July faces challenges, including a war-driven shortage of methanol used in biodiesel production and high levels of unsold byproducts in storage tanks.The higher biodiesel program, once implemented, could absorb an additional 3 million metric tons per year of palm oil, according to the MPOC.In terms of production, the USDA said in its annual oilseeds report that Indonesia's palm oil output may reach 48 mmt in the 2026/27 marketing year, a 3% increase from the previous year's 46.7 mmt.The government's move to seize illegal plantations and a possible drought related to the El Nino weather phenomenon pose supply risks.This week, palm oil prices are expected to remain rangebound, "with a slightly bearish bias," due to weak export demand and expectations of higher near-term supply, according to PhillipCapital."However, support may come from firmer crude oil prices and steady energy sector demand, which could help limit further downside," Phillip Capital said.Jim Teh, senior palm oil trader at Interband Group of Co., as cited by Bernama, projects palm oil prices to range from 4,200 ringgit/mt to 4,300 ringgit/mt this week due to profit taking, while the MPOC expects prices to approach 4,500 ringgit/mt in the near term.In the US, the May-dated ethanol futures on the NYMEX jumped by a further 2.43% to about $2.01 per gallon on Monday, tracking a recent rally in crude oil prices.
