Hello, everybody. Welcome into Commodity Culture. My name is Jesse Day. Today is August 11th, 2026, and my guest is the CEO of Visionary Metals, an exploration company advancing two nickel and copper sulfide projects in Wyoming and exploring a copper gold porphyry project in Utah. It's Wesley Adams. Great to have you on the show.

Thanks, Jesse. Thanks for having me on. Yeah, great to dive into what Visionary is doing in Wyoming and Utah and why we're excited about our upcoming drill program. Yeah, I cannot wait to dive into that. Before we do, I want to start with a high level overview of the critical minerals and metals space because there's obviously a lot going on geopolitically.

We were talking about it off camera before we began recording, but the supply chain is changing around the world at this point in time. How are you thinking about the growing recognition of the importance of critical minerals worldwide and the strain on supply chains currently underway? Well, I think, I mean, we're seeing the U.S. make a big push to fund critical metals projects and especially domestic ones.

You know, copper is really dominating the conversation right now. We're seeing genuine strain on supply, tight concentrate sales, Chinese smelting bottlenecks, and then interruptions that keep showing up in the market. Some of those are geopolitical and some of them are supply chain oriented, right? Nickel is a smaller market, but it's just as sensitive to those kind of disruptions.
