The project aims to capitalize on the record-high gold prices. CEO Rudy Diesel emphasized that the official commencement of production at the Kara Shoal underground gold mine in South Africas "Gold City" marks a new chapter of growth for the South African gold mining industry. Diesel pointed out that as the first newly built underground gold mine in South Africa in 15 years, the Kara mine proves that South Africa can still build safe and modern underground mining operations, creating long-term value for the economy and local communities. The mine is expected to contribute over US$1.15 billion to the South African economy over its 17-year mining cycle, with an estimated annual output of 70,000 ounces during its stable production phase (the first 12 years). Since the team was formed in July 2025, the project has progressed rapidly, with the first ore hoisting completed in October 2025, and the necessary underground infrastructure established. The surface ore stockpile is already substantial, and is expected to reach 30,000 tons of reserves before the planned first gold production in March 2026.EIA Natural Gas Report: For the week ending November 28, total U.S. natural gas inventories were 3.923 trillion cubic feet, down 12 billion cubic feet from the previous week and down 18 billion cubic feet from the same period last year, a year-on-year decrease of 0.5%, while 191 billion cubic feet higher than the 5-year average, an increase of 5.1%.

Binance has signed on as the Recording Academy's first official cryptocurrency exchange partner.


Binance will be sought out by the Recording Academy to spearhead Web3 efforts.


Binance's collaboration with the Recording Academy is the latest in a series of K-Pop collaborations aimed at increasing fan interaction.


Binance, one of the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges, was in the news again today. Despite recent clashes with regulators in a number of locations, Binance continues to push the crypto envelope.


To raise brand exposure, cryptocurrency exchanges have targeted mainstream events. eToro, FTX, Coinbase, and Crypto.com were featured in Super Bowl LVI in February, with the crypto exchanges purchasing half-time ad time.

Binance Sponsors the Grammys in the US

Binance became the Recording Academy's first-ever official crypto exchange partner today, according to news reports. The Grammy Awards, the only peer-recognized music honor, are organized by the Recording Academy.


Binance and the Recording Academy will apparently use Web3 to boost music fan engagement, as revealed by the Recording Academy on Twitter.


The Grammy Awards attracted only 8.8 million viewers in 2021, down from 18.7 million in 2020.


The previous low was 17 million in 2006, according to the New York Times. Staples Corner, currently known as Crypto.com Arena, hosted the event in 2021.


Similar trends have been observed in other broadcast award shows and significant athletic events.


While viewership for Super Bowl LVI dropped to a 15-year low, crypto exchanges experienced a surge in visitors shortly after their commercials aired. Binance is looking for the same thing.


Web 3 is not new to the Recording Academy. The Academy and Tezos-based NFT platform OneOf struck a three-year contract in November.


After forming relationships with K-Pop, Binance supports the Grammy Awards.

Music Industry and Global Fan Base Binance

Binance and KStarLive announced the release of "THE SHOW FanBox NFT Collection" in late 2021.


THE SHOW FanBox NFT Collection was FEATURED's first K-Pop performance NFT release. Binance's innovation arm, FEATURED, is a non-custodial, on-chain NFT platform.


SM Brand Marketing and YG Entertainment have also developed strategic collaborations with Binance.


Binance and SM Brand Marketing are working together to create a global Play-to-Create (P2C) ecosystem. Users will be able to generate content and items such as games, music, dance, and merchandise that can be converted into NFTs using P2C.


YG Entertainment, a K-pop label, and Binance are collaborating to build Metaverse, NFT, and gaming options.


Binance provides K-Pop with a worldwide platform for fan retention and engagement.


Binance will be looked to by the Recording Academy to spearhead similar projects in order to keep the Grammys at the forefront of the music business.


The 2022 Grammy Awards will be held on April 3 in Las Vegas.
