    Trillion Energy announces light oil discovery in Türkiye and strategic shift to oil exploration
    Apr 14 2026
    Trillion Energy International President Scott Lower joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce a significant light oil discovery at the Çetinkaya-1 (C-1) well in southeast Türkiye, alongside a strategic realignment toward high-impact oil exploration. Lower explained that the C-1 exploration and appraisal well, located on Block M47C3,C4 in Şırnak Province, has confirmed the presence of 32.4° API light oil within the Cretaceous Beloka and Mardin Group carbonate formations. A comprehensive wireline logging program was completed, including gamma ray, resistivity, density, neutron porosity, sonic, spontaneous potential, and caliper measurements. Log analysis, conducted using Archie’s equation calibrated to formation conditions, confirmed hydrocarbon-bearing intervals in both target formations. The well identified approximately 38.0 metres of net oil pay within a 76.6-metre gross reservoir interval, representing a net-to-gross ratio of about 50%. Fracture-adjusted estimates indicate gross pay of approximately 40.6 metres and net pay in the range of 36.0 to 38.5 metres. Drilling reached a depth of 2,455 metres before being halted due to loss of circulation, intersecting only about 38 metres of the targeted 250–350 metre reservoir section. As a result, more than 160 metres of prospective reservoir remains untested. To further evaluate the discovery, the company is planning a follow-up sidetrack well (C-1ST), targeting a structural crest approximately 75 to 100 metres higher, where a thicker oil column is anticipated. The discovery marks an important step in Trillion Energy’s strategy to prioritize oil-focused exploration opportunities with strong potential upside. #proactiveinvestors #trillionenergyinternational #cse #tcf #otcqb #trlef #OilDiscovery #TurkeyEnergy #LightOil #OilExploration #EnergySector #Hydrocarbons #DrillingResults #Reservoir #OilAndGas #ExplorationUpdate #EnergyTransition #Upstream #ResourceDevelopment #EnergyMarkets

    Kodal Minerals CEO on Bougouni Lithium Project delivering record month
    Apr 14 2026
    Kodal Minerals PLC (AIM:KOD) CEO Bernard Aylward joined Proactive's Stephen Gunnion to discuss a strong Q1 at the Bougouni Lithium Project in Mali, headlined by record monthly output of 10,900 tonnes in March. Operational improvements across mining, processing and logistics are now bearing fruit, with the company targeting shipments of 15,000 to 20,000 tonnes every six to eight weeks. Revenues since export began have exceeded $51 million, with lithium prices strengthening over that period. Looking further ahead, Kodal is advancing plans for a Phase Two flotation plant that Aylward says could support a mine life of more than 14 years — a significant milestone for a project still in its early export phase.

  • Snail USA expands beyond ARK franchise with focus on original game development

    Snail USA expands beyond ARK franchise with focus on original game development
    Apr 14 2026
    Snail USA Chief Financial Officer Heidy Chow joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company’s evolution from a successful video game publisher into a more diversified developer with a growing pipeline of original titles. Chow explained that Snail Inc., headquartered in California, has built a strong foundation through its flagship titles ARK: Survival Evolved and ARK: Survival Ascended. However, the company is now focused on expanding beyond the success of the ARK franchise and evolving into a game developer, creating a diverse portfolio that spans from indie titles to AAA games. As part of this strategy, Snail has increased investment in internal development and established its Poland-based subsidiary, Donkey Crew, to create new titles. A key milestone in this effort was the 2025 launch of Bellwright, which Chow described as a strong success. The company is now working to expand the game’s reach by bringing it from PC to console platforms. Looking ahead, Snail has three new AAA titles in the final phases of development, with one AAA in-house title targeting a 2027 release. This long-term growth strategy is supported by increased investment in research and development, with profits being reinvested into future projects. Chow also highlighted improved financial efficiency, noting that the company reduced licensing costs associated with ARK: Survival Ascended, generating approximately $6 million in annual savings. These funds are being redirected into development and operations. In addition, Snail continues to grow revenue through in-game content while exploring opportunities in video initiatives and broader IP rebranding efforts. #proactiveinvestors #snail #nasdaq #snal #SnailInc #GamingIndustry #VideoGames #GameDevelopment #ARKSurvivalEvolved #ARKAscended #Bellwright #AAA Games #IndieGames #GameStudio #DigitalEntertainment #GamingNews #IPDevelopment #TechInnovation #GamePublishing
