  • What I Did and What I Saw
    NEW GUINEA WHAT I DID AND WHAT I SAW Barry Craig, 2018 [email protected] Photos copyright B. Craig unless otherwise attributed I guess I was destined to be a walker from an early age ̶ I may have got that from my father. Boot camp, c.1941 Martin Place, Sydney, c.1941 Because my father fought at Sattelberg in the hills west of Finschhafen in 1943, I became fascinated by New Guinea and read avidly. After studying anthropology at the University of Sydney I went to PNG as an Education Officer in 1962. I asked to be posted to Telefomin. Languages of Central New Guinea I lived at Telefomin 1962-65. In 1963-64, Bryan Cranstone, British Museum, was based at Tifalmin west of Telefomin to research and collect items of material culture. His method of documenting things that he collected drew my attention to the house boards and shields of the region. He became my mentor. I was fortunate to witness the last of the male initiation ceremonies – dakasalban candidates with sponsor at left, otban at right. In 1964, I collected about 320 items of material culture for the Australian Museum, supported with photographs, and began a survey of all house boards and shields in the wider region, extended in 1967. This resulted in a Masters Thesis in 1969 and a booklet in 1988. At Bolovip, the board photographed by Champion in 1926 (left) was still there in 1967 (top right) but had been discarded by 1981.

  • Overview of the Nickel Market in Latin America and the Caribbean
    INSG SECRETARIAT BRIEFING PAPER April 2021 – No.35 Overview of the Nickel market in Latin America and the Caribbean Ricardo Ferreira, Director of Market Research and Statistics Francisco Pinto, Manager of Statistical Analysis 1. Introduction At the suggestion of the Group’s Brazilian delegation, it was agreed by members that a report, based on INSG Insight No. 26, published in November 2015 entitled “An overview of the nickel industry in Latin America”, be prepared by the secretariat. This would include an update of the operations that resumed production (e.g. Falcondo in the Dominican Republic), and also discuss how the emerging battery market might influence nickel usage in the region as well as the possibility of nickel scrap usage. This detailed and comprehensive Insight report, the 35th in the series of INSG Insight briefing reports, provides members with the results of that research work. In Latin America and the Caribbean, the nickel producing countries are Brazil, Colombia, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Guatemala and Venezuela. The Dominican Republic stopped nickel mining and smelting in October 2013 but resumed production at the beginning of 2016. Venezuela has not produced since mid-2015. All of these countries mine nickel and process it further to produce intermediate or primary nickel – mainly ferronickel. Most of the mined ore is processed within each country, and then exported to overseas markets, but Brazil and Guatemala also export nickel ore. In terms of usage only Brazil and Mexico are relevant regarding the global nickel market. The first section of this report briefly describes existing nickel deposits in the region.

  • Rebel Attacks on Nickel Ore Mines in the Surigao Del Norte Region
    Mindanao, Philippines – rebel attacks on nickel ore mines in the Surigao del Norte region The attacks On 3 October 2011, three mining firms located in and around Claver town in the Surigao del Norte region of Mindanao, Philippines were attacked by the rebel group known as the New People’s Army (NPA). It was reported that the attacks were prompted by a refusal of the mining firms to pay a "revolutionary tax" demanded by the NPA. The affected mining firms are the Taganito Mining Corporation (TMC), Taganito HPAL Nickel Corporation and Platinum Group Metals Corporation (PGMC)1. According to news reports and Gard’s local correspondent in the Philippines, some 300 NPA rebels wearing police/military uniforms staged coordinated strikes on the three mining facilities. The rebels attacked TMC’s compound first, burning heavy equipment, service vehicles, barges and buildings. Other rebel groups simultaneously attacked the nearby PGCM and Taganito HPAL compounds. Unconfirmed reports indicate that, unfortunately, casualties were also experienced during the attacks. All foreign vessels anchored near Taganito at the time of the attacks left the anchorage safely. The current situation The Philippine Government has stated that the situation is now contained and has deployed additional troops in the area to improve security and pursue the NPA rebels. However, according to Gard’s local correspondent in the Philippines, threats of further attacks made by the NPA in a press release are believed by many to be real. According to the latest press releases (Reuters on 5 October), Nickel Asia Corporation has resumed operations at its biggest nickel mine TMC and expects to ship ore in the next three weeks.

    Table1.—Attribute data for the map "Mineral Facilities of Asia and the Pacific," 2007 (Open-File Report 2010-1254). [The United States Geological Survey (USGS) surveys international mineral industries to generate statistics on the global production, distribution, and resources of industrial minerals. This directory highlights the economically significant mineral facilities of Asia and the Pacific. Distribution of these facilities is shown on the accompanying map. Each record represents one commodity and one facility type for a single location. Facility types include mines, oil and gas fields, and processing plants such as refineries, smelters, and mills. Facility identification numbers (“Position”) are ordered alphabetically by country, followed by commodity, and then by capacity (descending). The “Year” field establishes the year for which the data were reported in Minerals Yearbook, Volume III – Area Reports: Mineral Industries of Asia and the Pacific. In the “DMS Latitiude” and “DMS Longitude” fields, coordinates are provided in degree-minute-second (DMS) format; “DD Latitude” and “DD Longitude” provide coordinates in decimal degrees (DD). Data were converted from DMS to DD. Coordinates reflect the most precise data available. Where necessary, coordinates are estimated using the nearest city or other administrative district.“Status” indicates the most recent operating status of the facility. Closed facilities are excluded from this report. In the “Notes” field, combined annual capacity represents the total of more facilities, plus additional

IV 1965 BIBLIOGRAPHY OF SEPIK DISTRICT ART ANNOTATED FOR ILLUSTRATIONS, PART 1 by DOUGLAS NEWTON BIBLIOGRAPHY OF SEPIK DISTRICT ART ANNOTATED FOR ILLUSTRATIONS, PART 1 by Douglas Newton The Museum of Primitive Art This is a working list of material on the visual arts in the Sepik District of New Guinea published up to 31 December 1964, its purpose being the provision of a guide to the very considerable amount of documentation already in print. It does not ad­ here strictly to the administrative boundaries of the District: some items on the coastal area to the east of the Ramu have been included, since these are obviously stylistically related to work from the District itself. The first part, printed here, is a listing of individual documents, each followed by notes on the illustra­ tions it includes. The second part, to appear in the near future, will be an index, by provenience and class of object, to these notes. The entries are of two main kinds. The first consists of books and articles, whether illustrated or not, specifically devoted to the area. Here I have gone beyond the limitations implied by "the arts", and have included some works primarily dealing with general ethnology. To some extent this is unavoidable, owing to the authors' methods of presenting their material; but I have added rather generously to this cate­ gory in the hope that some items may provide background, or side-lights, for the sub­ ject.

BARNETT College of Marine and Environmental Sciences, James Cook University, Townsville, Qld, Australia TropWATER (Centre for Tropical Water and Aquatic Ecosystem Research), James Cook University, Townsville, Qld, Australia Abstract The Niugini black bass, Lutjanus goldiei Bloch, is an estuarine and freshwater fish species endemic to New Guinea and the surrounding islands. It is the focus of a growing sport fishing industry that has the potential to provide long-standing benefits to local people. Plantation agriculture, mining and logging are expanding in many catchments where L. goldiei is found, creating the potential for these industries to impact on L. goldiei and the environments it relies on. Understanding of the current status of the species, including its biology, ecology and distribution, is essential for its sustainable management.
