Barrick engaged in arbitration as Malian gold complex placed under state control
Barrick Mining has confirmed that the International Centre for Settlement of Investment Disputes (ICSID) arbitration process is fully under way after a tribunal ruling placed the Loulo-Gounkoto complex under temporary provisional administration at the request of the Malian Government. The Bamako Commercial Tribunal's ruling transferred operational control of the complex from Barrick's subsidiaries to an external administrator. The arbitration, initiated under the binding mining conventions between Barrick subsidiaries and the State of Mali, is critical for the company in safeguarding its rights amidst escalating tensions, the company stated. The arbitration tribunal has been constituted, and Barrick has submitted a request for provisional measures to prevent further escalation and to safeguard its rights under binding mining conventions with the State of Mali. Despite Barrick's subsidiaries remaining the legal owners of the mine, the Malian Government's recent actions, including blocking gold exports and seizing gold stocks, have led to the temporary suspension of operations. The company said in a statement: 'These developments occurred despite Barrick's ongoing efforts to reach a constructive and sustainable resolution. While the company has made a number of good faith concessions in the spirit of partnership, it cannot accept terms that would compromise the legal integrity or long-term viability of the operations.' Barrick has expressed deep concern over the ongoing detention of its employees, which it claims are being used as leverage in the dispute. The detention of employees and the government's increasing demands are seen as lacking factual and legal foundation by Barrick. The company has warned that unilateral actions by the government risk damaging Mali's economic credibility and its standing as an investment destination. While the ICSID process is in progress, Barrick is still open to engaging with the Malian Government to find a mutually acceptable solution. The company has said that it prefers resolving differences through engagement based on mutual respect, legal certainty and a shared commitment to long-term partnership.

Aussie stars in hunt for Royal Ascot riches
The Henry Dwyer-trained Asfoora is making her return to Royal Ascot in a bid to defend her crown in the Group 1 King Charles III Stakes (five furlongs), race three on the program. Dwyer said he has seen gradual improvement in Asfoora in the time the mare has been in the UK but feels she may be a length-or-two off her best. 'Last year we had seven or eight weeks before Ascot for her to get ready for it and even by the time Ascot rolled around, she still wasn't 100 per cent going into it,' Dwyer said. Know the news with the 7NEWS app: Download today 'She still presents a bit scrubby and bit wintry, but she's put on 10 kilos in the last seven days, or so, and looks a lot better for it. 'She's going the right way, not the wrong way, but it would have been nice to have an extra week or two up our sleeve. 'It's hard to quantify, but my gut feel is she's a length or two below her best, but I think it's a length or two weaker this year, so it might even itself out. 'Her gallop last week was brilliant, her trial before she left was just, but that was without blinkers and I reckon she's looking for them now, so we've put them on. 'It will be interesting to see how she goes. I reckon she will run well, but whether she wins or not, I just feel like she's going to improve a length or two throughout the season.' Meanwhile, another Aussie horse is 'ready to explode'. They were the words from Will Bourne as he discussed Carl Speckler ahead of the Group 1 Queen Anne Stakes over a mile at Royal Ascot on Tuesday night (Australian time). Bourne, who is trainer Ciaron Maher's Head of Bloodstock, said the Irish-bred galloper who has raced exclusively in the US registering eight wins from 12 starts, was in a good headspace ahead of his UK debut. Leading Australian-based jockey James McDonald is booked to ride the entire and partnered Carl Speckler in some work on Monday morning (UK time). 'He's switched on, bright, well, healthy and there is a level of confidence around the team with that horse,' Bourne told RSN. 'There are the factors of the mile and the straight for the first time, but he's going to run a race, whether that's fourth or winning, but he's shown he's very fit, well and bright.' Carl Speckler is not the only 'Australian interest' in the opening race of the Royal Ascot meeting with Docklands an opponent to be ridden by Mark Zahra. Docklands is owned by the OTI Syndicate and is trained by Harry Eustace, the brother of now Hong Kong-based David Eustace, the former training partner of Maher. Trainer Harry Eustace says Docklands is an Ascot specialist. Credit: Getty Images The five-year-old ran second in the Queen Anne last year before making his way to Australia, finishing fifth in the Cox Plate and Moonee Valley and sixth in the Champions Stakes at Flemington. Eustace feels Docklands is back in the same form that produced his second in last year's contest but has acknowledge this year's race is a tougher contest. 'Arguably, his first-up run this year, and I'm not a huge figures man, but the figures people say it was a very big performance and on the numbers was his best ever performance,' Eustace said. 'That was very encouraging to hear. 'We were unlucky at Epsom 10 days ago, so at the very least it feels like the same Docklands is going to rock up, but I think it's a deeper race on paper. 'He's got his work cut out, but he is an absolute Ascot specialist, and you can never rule him out because of that. 'There are a number of Group 1 winners rocking up against each other and we're very excited to be involved in it.' - With RAS NewsWire

MSD begins Phase III trial of dengue vaccine
Merck & Co (MSD) has initiated the randomised MOBILIZE-1 Phase III trial to assess the immunogenicity, efficacy, and safety of the investigational quadrivalent vaccine, V181, designed to prevent dengue disease. The disease is caused by any of the four serotypes: DENV-1, DENV-2, DENV-3, and DENV-4. Also referred to as V181-005, the study has started enrolling its first subjects in Singapore. The placebo-controlled, double-blind trial aims to enrol approximately 12,000 healthy individuals aged two to 17 years old. They will be randomised and given either a single dose of the vaccine or a placebo. More than 30 trial sites across dengue endemic regions in the Asia-Pacific, including Indonesia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand and Vietnam, are planned to be part of the trial. The trial's primary goal is to determine the efficacy and safety of a single dose of the vaccine in preventing symptomatic virologically confirmed dengue (VCD) of any severity, caused by any dengue serotype, and without consideration of previous dengue exposure. A key secondary efficacy endpoint is the evaluation of V181's ability to prevent symptomatic VCD caused by each serotype. Additional secondary goals of the trial include the assessment of V181 in preventing symptomatic VCD with severe VCD, warning signs, and hospitalisation due to dengue. The live attenuated quadrivalent vaccine is intended to be administered in one dose. MSD Research Laboratories' global clinical development infectious diseases and vaccines senior vice-president Dr Paula Annunziato said: 'Approximately half of the world's population lives in areas with a risk for dengue, making it a serious public health threat. 'The initiation of the MOBILIZE-1 study, the first Phase III trial in our clinical development programme, marks a key milestone in our work to help address this widespread mosquito-borne disease. 'If successful, V181 could provide an important single-dose option for at-risk populations, regardless of previous exposure to dengue, to help reduce the significant burden around the globe.' MSD's investigational KRAS G12C inhibitor has recently shown signs of anti-tumour activity when used both alone and in combination with other oncology drugs.
