As for meat and fish, she noted: "We were rationed of course. Article continues below "So we never had that much when I was young. Today I like a bit of meat. I'm not keen on fish but I eat a bit of it." Concluding her discussion on eating habits, the 101-year old, who appears remarkably youthful for her years, said: "I'm very careful with what I eat.

Zeotech, MSI sign MOU for kaolin and bauxite clay products sales
Emerging mineral processing technology company Zeotech has executed a non-binding memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Jiangsu Mineral Sources International (MSI) Trading, an international trading house based in China. The MOU outlines the framework for potential offtake or distribution agreements for Zeotech's low-iron kaolin, pink cosmetic grade kaolin, and bauxitic clay direct shipping ore (DSO) products. Under the agreements, MSI could purchase 800,000 tonnes (t) of low-iron kaolin DSO, 150,000t of pink cosmetic grade kaolin DSO, and 1.5 million tonnes of bauxitic clay DSO over five years. These commitments could sustain mining operations at Zeotech's Toondoon Kaolin project in Queensland, Australia. Zeotech CEO James Marsh said: 'We are excited to be able to work with MSI towards a pathway to early cashflow from our ready-to-mine kaolin resources, as we continue to progress with the accelerated commercialisation of our AusPozz high reactivity metakaolin project. 'Toondoon kaolin has an exceptional natural purity, which has led to this DSO opportunity, which is made especially compelling by including the materially higher-value cosmetic-grade pink kaolin and the bauxitic clay, which was initially considered overburden but now can add value to the overall mining project.' The sale of bauxitic clay DSO represents a strategic opportunity for Zeotech, potentially providing a revenue stream for a product that would otherwise be stockpiled. This could significantly enhance the overall economics of the mining operation, the company said. The company has been collaborating with Gladstone Ports at the Port of Bundaberg, utilising their bulk mineral conveyor, ship loading system, and DSO storage area, which are well-suited for the bulk kaolin business. The MOU is set to expire on 31 December 2025, with the option for either party to terminate by providing 30 days written notice. The Toondoon Kaolin project, which comprises ML 80126 and EPMs 27395 and 27866, is a high-grade kaolin deposit with an approved mining lease. Spanning over 28,000 hectares (ha) and located approximately 20km south of Mundubbera, Queensland, the project is a straightforward open-cut mining operation with minimal overburden. Zeotech owns the freehold land covering the entirety of ML 80126 and overlapping the adjacent EPMs, totalling approximately 682ha. This land provides direct access to local roads, supporting mining operations and offering potential for future expansion to meet demand.

A man was shot after approaching alleged vehicle prowlers. Police have third teen in custody
Tacoma Police arrested a third suspect Wednesday in a case officers are investigating as a homicide, after a man was fatally shot Jan. 9 on a residential street in Tacoma's North End. Officers were dispatched to the 4800 block of North 18th Street at about 2:30 a.m. Jan. 9 after a report of gunfire and a man lying in the street, whom they found suffering several gunshot wounds, The News Tribune reported. Police and Tacoma Fire personnel attempted life-saving measures but the man was declared dead at the scene. Crime scene technicians and detectives responded to the scene and opened an investigation. The victim was later identified as James Marsh, 53, of Tacoma, according to a release from the Pierce County Medical Examiner's Office. Police booked the third suspect, an 18-year-old man, into the Pierce County Jail Wednesday, according to the department's post on X. He joins another 18-year-old man whom officers booked into the jail Jan. 14, and a 17-year-old boy whom officers booked into Remann Hall Jan. 10. All three are suspected of murder in the second degree, the post said. Elijah Alexander Andrews, whom officers arrested Jan. 14, was charged in Pierce County Superior Court Jan. 15 with two counts of second-degree murder, The News Tribune reported. A plea of not guilty was entered on his behalf. The judge in the case ordered that the 17-year-old's name not be publicly released while the investigation is ongoing. The News Tribune is not naming the third suspect because he hasn't yet been charged with a crime. The News Tribune also reported based on court records that surveillance footage showed a person thought to be Marsh walking toward two people who were looking into and touching vehicles near his home, including his Land Rover Range Rover, on Jan. 9. It appeared that a third suspect was allegedly involved, prosecutors wrote in the probable cause affidavit. Detectives also learned that several vehicle prowls were reported in the area just before the homicide, according to court documents. The investigation is ongoing, according to the post. It requests anyone with information to contact Tacoma Police or Crime Stoppers of Tacoma-Pierce County.
