    sunday afternoon activists club     TL;DR > book club meets high tea for creative activism chats: Feb 1st 2015 at @ciahq

 in these dark times it's hard to know where to turn. you want to help others but you also worry about paying the rent and feeding your children. so what can you do?

 the sunday afternoon activists club is a light-hearted approach to activism. we know we can't change the world alone, but we also know we want to try, together.

 taking inspiration from book clubs, high teas, tweetups and blogmeets, we will be using this network to encourage physical gatherings and online sharing of the more positive and beautiful aspects of activism, in all its forms.

 this FREE gathering will launch at cia studios in Perth on Feb 1st 2015. 

 our first book will be "Beautiful Trouble: a toolbox for revolution" who have most generously offered to provide a discount code for their print or ebook edition. all reservations will receive this code on confirmation of their booking, plus tea and biscuits (after all, what kind of activist gathering would it be without endless cups of tea?!). 

 I will also give a brief update on the creative actions which have arisen from last year's Memefest14 in which we were invited to work with the Brisbane Aboriginal Sovereign Embassy and Grandmothers Against Removals.

 bring your smiles, creative naughtiness and any examples of beautiful troublemaking you care to share x

    Positive Birth Perth    This month's topic: When birth doesn't go to planCome and join us for an informal morning, where ALL parents-to-be, birth professionals and anyone who is passionate about birth regardless of their background, experience or choices— will come together and explore what makes for a positive birth experience—for Mum and Dad. We are part of the Positive Birth Movement which believes that every family deserves a positive birth. This involves freedom of choice, access to accurate information, and that the family is in control, powerful and respected. A birth that they approach, perhaps with some trepidation, but without fear or dread, and that they then go on to enjoy, and later remember with warmth and pride.Positive Birth Perth is facilitated by Nikki Hunt from Gentle Beings and Moran Liviani from 2Life Doula. We are both passionate about women's birth choices and our aim is to facilitate an environment in which families can come together to ask questions, listen to diverse opinions, feel protected and nurtured in a space that will hold no judgement. And all over tea and cake!

    S2R Networking Lunch - Platypus Minerals (ASX:PLP) MD Tom Dukovcic    “Investment Opportunity in Large Scale Copper-Gold Porphyry Potential in the East Pilbara and Peru”

 You are invited to a presentation by Tom Dukovcic, Manging Director of Platypus Minerals Ltd.

 About Platypus:

 Platypus is an ASX listed junior explorer (ASX:PLP) with two high quality projects, in Peru and in WA, both prospective for copper-porphyry style mineralisation. Specifically, Platypus is targeting large, high-value deposits that could have an enormous impact on the growth of the Company and its share price.

 Platypus has made the first discovery of 2015 at Gobbos in the east Pilbara and as a result their share price increased by more thna 30 per cent.

 The Peruvian tenements located in the San Mateo mining district cover more than 230 square kilometres and surround Inca Minerals Limited's (ASX:ICG) Chanape project which has confirmed a sizeable mineralised system. A $1.5M drilling program for Platypus is expected to commence in early CY2015 with any meaningful results to be viewed favourably by the market.

 More information is available from http://www.platypusminerals.com.au

 About Tom Dukovcic (pictured above)

 Tom is a geologist by training having graduated with a B Sc (Hons) degree from the University of Melbourne in 1982.

 He has accumulated over 25 years’ experience in exploration and development, working in diverse regions throughout Australia and internationally in south-east Asia and Brazil. During this time he has been directly involved with the management of gold and copper discoveries in Australia and gold in Brazil. Mr Dukovcic is a Member of the Australian institute of Geoscientists and a Member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors. He brings valuable geological, exploration and management experience and skills to the Board of Platypus.

 His initial experience was gained in the gold industry in Western Australia starting with Joe Gutnick’s Johnsons Well Mining and Geoff Stokes’ Mawson Pacific in the late 80s. He then moved on to Sons of Gwalia and later Finders Gold before striking out in 1996 with a group of associates to form Ashburton Gold Mines NL, which they intended to float on the back of gold exploration properties in the Ashburton region of WA.

 It was the wrong time to go to the market with an IPO, so Tom sought out a listed company suitable for merger.

 In 1999 Ashburton Gold Mines was involved in a reverse takeover of Zephyr Minerals NL resulting in a change of management and name change to Ashburton Minerals. Tom was appointed Executive Director of Ashburton Minerals in April 1999, and Managing Director in June 2003.

 In October 2013 Ashburton merged with unlisted company Platypus Resources Ltd, which held rights to a suite of concessions in Peru prospective for Cu-Au and base metal mineralisation within the rich Miocene Porphyry Belt of Peru. The Company changed its name to Platypus Minerals to reflect this new focus.

 Ashburton/Platypus is an active and versatile explorer, maintaining a philosophy of seeking out projects that show clear and substantial potential, but importantly also knowing when to move on if results so dictate. The Company has been involved with the following projects:

 Tom is pleased to be here to share this story in this exciting stage in the development of Platypus Minerals.

 Tom will dicuss:

 What is the inside story behind their exploration strategy? What the current market sentiment is with the junior exploration sector? What is the short, medium and long-term upside for the company? Where are the near-term value drivers for the business that are likely to increase the shareprice of Platypus? How you can invest in Platypus Minerals. FAQs
