Last update: 9 hours agoMining & Exploration: Greenheart Gold has started a 2,000m diamond drilling program at its Tosso Creek Project in Suriname, beginning at the Walaba target and moving next to Swalanga, aiming to test structural controls, check mineralization continuity at depth, and feed future drill planning after soil sampling, trenching, mapping, LiDAR interpretation and drone magnetics. Digital History & Genealogy: The Dutch National Archives launched a new online portal for Curaçao ancestry and slavery research, bringing together digitized registers and archives (including slavery and emancipation records from 1839–1863 and manumission details) with name-search access and links to related civil registry resources. Health & Food Tech: A multiethnic study from Amsterdam-based cohorts reports that higher intake of non-sugar-sweetened drinks is linked to a higher risk of developing type 2 diabetes, with stronger associations among younger adults and non-Dutch origin participants. Environment & Wildlife: New research finds microplastics in Amazonian wildlife—including fish, tapirs, crabs and bats—even inside protected areas, suggesting spread across aquatic and terrestrial food chains. Fisheries Data Skills: A CRFM workshop in Georgetown (with partners including UWI and FAO) trained fisheries teams from Guyana, Suriname and Trinidad & Tobago to use length-based methods for groundfish stock assessment in data-limited settings.
