Interview with George Bee, President and CEO, US Gold CorpOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/us-gold-corp-nasdaqusau-permitted-gold-copper-project-targets-january-dfs-with-17moz-reserve-8558Recording date: 2nd December 2025US Gold Corp is positioning itself as one of the few fully permitted gold development projects in the United States as it prepares to release a feasibility study for its CK Gold Project in Wyoming. President and CEO George Bee, speaking at the Resourcing Tomorrow conference in London, outlined the company's timeline for transitioning from developer to producer while maintaining significant exploration upside in Nevada.The feasibility study, expected in January 2026, incorporates advanced Jameson cell flotation technology that delivers improved recovery rates with lower capital and operating costs compared to conventional processing methods. The company has also optimized its tailings management system, switching to continuous belt filtration for enhanced efficiency. While inflation will impact some cost estimates, Bee emphasized that rising gold, copper, and silver prices more than offset these increases.The CK Gold Project benefits from exceptional infrastructure, located just 90 minutes from Denver International Airport via interstate highways. This strategic positioning enables a daily commuting workforce, eliminating remote camp costs while providing access to established mining services. The local utility will provide power infrastructure through a substation connection, with the company paying only demand charges rather than capitalizing construction costs.Development activities have commenced with access road construction beginning December 2025 using existing treasury funds. Following financing completion in the first half of 2026, heavy earthworks will progress through 2027, with major equipment installation occurring year-end 2027. Commissioning is scheduled for late 2027, positioning the project for commercial production in 2028.The operation will produce approximately 110,000 gold equivalent ounces annually over an initial 10-year mine life, generating a clean copper-gold concentrate attractive to smelters. Once CK generates cash flow, management plans to self-fund exploration at the Keystone project in Nevada, located 11 miles from Barrick's Cortez complex in the same geological environment as world-class Carlin-type deposits. This strategy allows US Gold to pursue district-scale discovery potential without shareholder dilution while maintaining its near-term focus on construction execution.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/us-gold-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Recording date: 1st December 2025Olive Resource Capital has delivered exceptional performance in 2025, with Executive Chairman Derek Mcpherson and President/CEO/CIO Sam Pelaez reporting record third-quarter results during their December 1st "Compass" podcast discussion. The fund achieved 61.8% gains in Q3 and 113.5% year-to-date returns, driven primarily by the rising gold market and strategic portfolio positioning.Despite generating $5.2 million in net income during Q3 against a market capitalization of just $7-8 million, management believes the share price trading around $0.07 significantly undervalues the fund's performance and asset base. This disconnect represents what Mcpherson characterizes as a meaningful opportunity for investors willing to recognize the fund's accomplishments.The discussion emphasized Olive's investment philosophy of identifying companies undergoing transformation before markets fully price in the changes. This approach has proven successful with holdings like AngloGold Ashanti, which has delivered over 200% returns year-to-date, alongside other transforming companies including K92 Mining, Orion Resources, and CanX Resources.A significant portion of the conversation analyzed Barrick Gold Corporation's announced plans to potentially spin out its North American assets, including Nevada Gold Mines, Pueblo Viejo, and the Fourmile project. The managers estimate this portfolio represents approximately 2 million ounces of annual production with an enterprise value of $40-50 billion.While Newmont emerges as the most logical acquirer given existing joint venture partnerships, the analysis revealed surprising complications. Newmont currently trades at lower valuation multiples than Barrick despite producing 50% more gold, creating challenges for structuring an accretive transaction. However, the deal could provide Newmont with 33-50% production growth impossible to achieve through any other single transaction.Management maintains conviction in continued commodity strength, supported by global liquidity expansion, central bank accommodation, and the recent end of Federal Reserve quantitative tightening. They see no material macro developments disrupting their bullish thesis on commodities entering 2026.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

C'est un conflit qui opposait depuis deux ans les autorités maliennes et le groupe minier canadien Barrick Gold à propos de l'exploitation de la mine d'or de Loulo-Gounkoto. « Un chapitre particulièrement tendu des relations entre l'État malien et Barrick Mining Corporation vient de se refermer, pointe le site malien Bamada. Après de longues négociations, des échanges parfois rudes et près de deux années de confrontation juridique et administrative, les deux parties ont annoncé, lundi, à l'hôtel des Finances à Bamako, la conclusion d'un accord global mettant fin à l'ensemble de leurs différends (…). Pour le gouvernement malien, cette issue marque un tournant majeur, relève encore Bamada : le pays espère désormais des retombées économiques estimées à 220 milliards de FCFA par an, un montant qui devrait renforcer durablement les recettes publiques et consolider la transition vers une gestion plus souveraine des ressources naturelles ». 430 millions de dollars « Le compromis prévoit des concessions mutuelles importantes, précise pour sa part Malijet : Barrick Gold s'engage à abandonner son arbitrage en cours auprès du Centre international pour le règlement des différends relatifs aux investissements. En retour, le gouvernement malien s'engage à retirer toutes les accusations portées contre Barrick et à libérer immédiatement quatre de ses employés qui étaient retenus. Par ailleurs, l'accord met fin à la mise sous administration provisoire du complexe Loulo-Gounkoto, restituant le contrôle opérationnel complet à Barrick ». Enfin, précise encore Malijet, « bien que les détails financiers précis du partage des revenus n'aient pas été divulgués, l'accord est expressément aligné sur le nouveau code minier malien, adopté en 2023 ». En fait, d'après Bloomberg news, Barrick Gold a accepté de verser au Mali la somme de 244 milliards de francs CFA, soit 430 millions de dollars. Une somme qui se répartirait de la façon suivante : 144 milliards de FCFA versés dans les 6 jours qui suivent l'accord ; 50 milliards supplémentaires proviendront de compensations de crédits de TVA, tandis qu'un acompte du même montant avait déjà été versé l'année dernière. Une souveraineté retrouvée Et la presse malienne crie victoire… Le site Mali Actu s'enthousiasme : « la résolution de ce bras de fer est cruciale pour notre économie, fortement dépendante des revenus miniers. En janvier dernier, Barrick Gold avait suspendu ses opérations. En juin, un administrateur provisoire avait dû être nommé pour maintenir l'activité. L'accord signé lundi signifie la fin d'un chapitre conflictuel et la relance pleine et entière de la production à Loulo-Gounkoto. Cet épilogue ouvre la voie à une ère de coopération plus sereine et durable, essentielle pour le développement économique du Mali et la pérennité des investissements étrangers dans son secteur minier stratégique ».

Un secteur stratégique En tout cas, relève SeneNews à Dakar, « pour les deux camps, l'urgence était réelle. Barrick Gold faisait face à un manque à gagner considérable en raison de l'interruption partielle de ses activités sur le site de Loulo-Gounkoto. Et de son côté, rappelle le site sénégalais, le Mali est confronté depuis trois mois à un blocus instauré par des groupes armés affiliés au Jnim, qui entrave les transports, perturbe l'économie et fragilise la production d'or — un secteur stratégique qui représente environ un quart du budget national ».

The EU's antitrust chief, Teresa Ribera, says changing regulations on US tech is not on the cards. This comes after US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick tied a loosening of tech rules to lower US tariffs. Also, mining giant Barrick reaches an agreement with the Malian government to resume operations at the Loulo-Gounkoto gold mining complex. Plus we head to Finland, where economic stagnation won't necessarily mean the country will lose its title as the world's happiest country.

In this KE Report daily editorial, I am joined by Jeff Christian, Managing Partner at CPM Group, to break down what's driving gold and silver as both metals consolidate near their highs. Jeff shares data-backed insights on ETF inflows, global equity trends, and new investor behavior shaping the precious metals market. Key Discussion Highlights: Record gold ETF inflows - Strong Q3 momentum with billions added globally; driven largely by short-term and momentum-oriented investors seeking liquidity. Shift to larger US-listed ETFs - Investors rotating out of smaller regional funds and into GLD/IAU for liquidity and regulatory confidence. Macro outlook supports higher investment demand - CPM Group expects rising geopolitical and economic stress into 2026, sustaining demand for gold and silver. New entrants emerging - Tether taking stakes in royalty companies and Elliott Management targeting Barrick highlight changing investor profiles. Silver near $50 faces real-world limits - Industrial users adjust at higher prices, capping runaway upside despite strong investment demand. Investors hedging, not selling - With gold near $4,000 and silver at $50, large investors prefer downside protection while holding core positions.

Coffee with Samso | Episode 212 | UWA Club, Crawley, Western Australia. Guest: Darren Cooke – CEO, FireFly Metals Ltd (ASX: FFM) Introduction In this episode of Coffee with Samso, we continue our Exploration Discovery Series with one of the most fascinating stories to come out of Western Australia's goldfields — the Pegasus gold discovery. This story is special. Not because Pegasus was a greenfields success, but precisely because it wasn't. It was hiding in plain sight — within the Swiss cheese of decades of drilling in the Kundana gold camp. In 2014, Pegasus was recognised as one of the most significant discoveries of the decade. At the time of its unveiling, the project hosted a resource of 2.1 million tonnes at 11.4 g/t Au, containing approximately 763,000 ounces of gold. Northern Star Resources (ASX: NST) would later prove what Bill Beament said at the time — that this would be a million-ounce deposit just 350 metres from their Rubicon mine. To unpack this milestone discovery, I spoke with Darren Cooke, CEO of FireFly Metals and the former geology and long-term planning manager for Barrick at Kundana during the Pegasus discovery years. This conversation isn't just a walk down memory lane. It's a technical, strategic, and cultural deep dive into how great discoveries can be made in places everyone thinks they already know. Chapters 00:00 Start 02:39 Introduction 04:03 Introduction to Darren Cooke. 04:54 The early days of the Discovery - Pre 2011 07:11 The Unlocking of the Historical Dataset - 2011 to 2012 08:32 The Duration of the Work to "work" the data. 9:45 What was the structural concept? 10:47 Was the narrow mineralisation of Kundana the key to thinking differently? 11:58 With hindsight, was Pegasus easy to define/discover? 12:38 The double plunging mineralisation is the thinking that helped other discoveries? 13:48 Well Drilled Does Not Mean Well Explored - Quality of Data 14:46 Time is required to understand historical data 15:42 Geological Models are only a good guide. 16:58 How much confidence did Management know about the Pegasus potential? 18:43 The Northern Star "Thinking". 22:15 Was Anton Billis a good JV partner? 23:11 Was the purchase price of AUD $75M cheap? 24:25 Was there something that could have made Pegasus not a discussion? 25:52 Is there more discoveries left to discover from "Brownfield" projects? 27:10 Is there another Pegasus still out there like a Never Never? 28:16 A different view to a Brownfield project? 29:41 Brownfield projects should be more about a Brownfield new discovery not a reintroduction of the old concepts. 31:08 A Mineral System Is Always More Than One Success. 32:30 The FireFly Story. (Take out the bit I said about "Dont spoil the Story" 34:00 Is Northern Star the new generation of Western Mining in terms of quality work. 35:38 The skillset required in developing a Mining of Mineral Resources 36:59 The culture DNA of Northern Star. 37:45 Words of Wisdom to the new generation of geologists. 39:14 A Special DNA to Find the Solution. 40:29 Darren last Words 40:56 Conclusion Setting the Scene – Kundana in the 2000s - The Pegasus Gold Discovery The Kundana Province is no stranger to gold. By the early 2000s, it was already a 10Moz gold camp. The ground around Pegasus was peppered with drill holes — hundreds of them — yet the discovery remained elusive. In 2005, Placer Dome drilled the first hole into what would later become Pegasus. But they walked away. Fast-forward to 2011–2012, a new team at Barrick re-examined the data. What followed wasn't a stroke of luck but a combination of fresh geological thinking, technical persistence, and the right mindset to challenge old assumptions. "It wasn't that Pegasus wasn't drilled. It was that no one had looked at the data differently. We just saw what others missed." – Darren Cooke Unlocking the Historical Dataset (2011–2012) When Darren stepped into the Barrick geology and planning role, the first thing the team did was dig through the database — not for something new, but for something overlooked. 100+ drill holes were already in the area. Most were shallow and targeted under a subvertical plunge model. Hits were dismissed because follow-up holes below were barren. No one questioned whether the plunge direction was wrong. Darren's team challenged the model. By recognising a double-plunging shoot orientation, they unlocked a structure that others had effectively drilled around. "It was a classic case of model bias. Everyone was fitting data to the model rather than re-examining the model itself." The Turning Point – Geological Insight Meets Practical Pressure Pegasus wasn't just a technical story. It was also a story about operational necessity. The Barrick Kundana team was running out of ore. The long-term planning and geology groups collaborated closely to rethink their targeting strategy. It was this internal pressure that drove them to rework the historical data. The double plunge model that emerged: Explained the original hit and subsequent misses. Predicted mineralisation at depth offset from previous holes. Led to rapid resource definition once drilling resumed. The result: a million-ounce gold system hiding between existing infrastructure and old drill collars. "Well Drilled" Does Not Mean "Well Explored" One of the most powerful takeaways from this conversation is the difference between density of drilling and quality of exploration. "Well drilled doesn't mean well explored. You can have a pin cushion of holes and still miss the prize." This statement resonates across WA discoveries: Hemi sat beside 1.4Moz of known gold. Never Never was hidden in existing data. Pegasus was 350m from Rubicon and hiding in plain sight. Brownfields areas are full of opportunity, but only for those willing to break models and reframe the geological story. From Discovery to Development – The Northern Star Effect In 2014, Barrick sold the Kundana assets to Northern Star Resources for $75 million. Barrick described the assets as "high-cost, short-life." Northern Star saw the opposite: long-life, company-making assets. The cultural difference was stark: Within weeks, Northern Star doubled drill rigs at Pegasus. Approved an underground decline for drilling access. Backed the geological team to prove the model quickly. "Every mine has its right size owner. For Barrick, Pegasus was peripheral. For Northern Star, it was core." The entrepreneurial mining mindset turned geological opportunity into economic reality. Brownfields Discovery – A Playbook for the Future The Pegasus story mirrors many of WA's recent major discoveries. It shows:

Stop-Loss, Schlaglöcher, Safe Haven: "Was jetzt in Nestlé, Barrick & Co. steckt" Heißes Doppel im Heiko-Thieme-Club: Ritschy Dobetsberger, einer der erfolgreichsten wikifolio-Trader, erklärt seine fokussierte "Umbrella"-Strategie (6-12 Aktien) mit strikt gesetzten, chartbasierten Stop-Loss: "Ich springe der Straßenbahn nach - und steige an der nächsten Station aus, wenn der Trend bricht." Rheinmetall, Tesla, Apple und Barrick Gold profitieren vom Mix aus Geopolitik und Ausbruchssignalen. Heiko Thieme kontert antizyklisch, respektiert aber Ritchies Disziplin: "Beides funktioniert - Hauptsache konsequent." Zur Lage: Trump-Zollrhetorik sorgt für Schlaglöcher (-5 bis -6 % möglich), dennoch sieht Thieme bis Jahresende Chancen: "DAX 25.000 ist nicht unrealistisch." Bitcoin bleibt für ihn "wertlos - aber bis zu 3 % zulässig". Konkretes: Nestlé mit ~25 % Potenzial (in drei Tranchen), Gerresheimer für Langfristige weiterhin haltbar; China nur gering gewichten wegen Systemrisiken. Thieme über Dobetsberger als Beimischung: "Bis zu 5 % Portfolioanteil sind vertretbar."

In this 75th episode of the Paul Zimnisky Diamond Analytics Podcast, independent mining journalist David McKay joins the show from Johannesburg, South Africa.

Recording date: 2nd October 2025Welcome back to Compass, Olive Resource Capital's weekly markets and portfolio insights show, hosted by Derek MacPherson (Executive Chairman) and Sam Pelaez (President, CEO & CIO). Each week, we cut through the noise in mining and metals, highlighting the most important macro developments and drilling down into the companies shaping our portfolio.In this episode, we unpack a week of pivotal news for both major gold producers and junior explorers. At the very top of the market, Newmont and Barrick—two of the world's largest gold companies—announced leadership changes on the same day. Newmont's move was a planned succession from COO to CEO, signaling stability and continuity as the company enters a new phase of growth. Barrick, however, surprised the market with an interim appointment following the sudden departure of Mark Bristow. This contrast highlights the broader cycle shift from defensive, balance-sheet-focused leadership to growth-oriented CEOs ready to capitalise on a bull gold market.The coincidence of both announcements has reignited speculation about deeper industrial alignment. With Nevada Gold Mines and Pueblo Viejo already jointly operated, strategic synergies are clear. A combined or further integrated entity could also benefit from passive investment flows, with Newmont's S&P 500 inclusion forcing index-tracking funds to increase their exposure. While no deal has been announced, the industrial and financial rationale for closer alignment between Newmont and Barrick is stronger than ever.Beyond the majors, the week delivered extraordinary news from Olive's portfolio companies. Sterling Metals announced a discovery hole at its Soo Copper project in Ontario - 262 metres at 1% copper equivalent—re-rating the stock by more than 200% in a single day. Years of geological groundwork positioned the company for this success, underscoring the importance of disciplined preparation.Prospector Metals delivered another standout intercept: 44 metres at 13 g/t gold with 1.8% copper at its Mike Lake project. Shares surged nearly 280% and have held those gains. As part of the Discovery Group, Prospector demonstrated how systematic geological work and strong stewardship can unlock transformative discoveries.By contrast, Midnight Sun Mining illustrates the risk of overextended valuations. The company reported nearly 40 metres at .5% copper from its Dumbwa target in Zambia, yet shares fell around 20% as the market had already priced in perfection. The case highlights why entry point and expectations matter as much as geological success.The financing environment also shows renewed strength, with over C$100 million raised across juniors in the past week. With seasonal drill programs now underway, investors should expect a steady cadence of results through year-end. Majors may also lean further into M&A, project acceleration, and capital returns as gold prices remain near record highs.

U.S. Gold Corp. Chairman Luke Norman joined Steve Darling from Proactive to provide an update on the company's two flagship assets, highlighting steady progress at the CK Gold Project in Wyoming and a renewed strategic focus on the Keystone Project in Nevada. Norman reported that U.S. Gold is moving “full steam ahead” into the final stage of its Definitive Feasibility Study (DFS) at CK Gold. Site preparation is now underway, supported by a newly signed agreement with Black Hills Energy to secure long-term power transmission for the project. In addition, road construction has begun, ensuring critical infrastructure will be in place as the project advances. With the DFS nearing completion, Norman confirmed that financing decisions are expected before year-end, setting the stage for CK Gold's transition into development. Turning to Nevada, Norman emphasized the district-scale potential of the company's Keystone Project, located just across from Barrick Gold's world-class Cortez Complex—one of the richest gold-producing regions on the planet. He drew attention to recent exploration success in the area, noting Barrick's high-profile Four Mile discovery, which has added significant value to its nearby operations. Keystone, Norman explained, shares geological similarities with Cortez, including a massive arsenic anomaly that he described as “the richest endowment of arsenic that many geologists in Nevada have ever seen.” Such anomalies are considered strong indicators of gold mineralization in Carlin-type systems, which have historically hosted some of Nevada's largest and most profitable gold deposits. While historical drilling at Keystone has been relatively limited, U.S. Gold now controls a fully consolidated district-scale land package, positioning it to systematically explore a property with the right geological markers for a potentially transformative discovery. Norman acknowledged that advancing Keystone will require new capital, but underscored its potential as a long-term growth driver for the company. #proactiveinvestors #usgoldcorp #nasdaq #usau #mining #gold #copper USGoldCorp, #Mining #CKGoldProject #MiningInvestment #GoldMining #FeasibilityStudy #PowerInfrastructure #ProjectFinancing #MiningDevelopment #GoldStocks #WyomingMining

Fresh from the US, mining veteran Peter Major joins Alec Hogg to unpack the week's biggest stories. Was Mark Bristow pushed out of Barrick by pressure from Mali's military junta? Are Orion Minerals' copper and zinc riches worth the political risk? And what do gold at $4,000, a new Chinese giant, and South Africa's battered mining policies mean for investors? Major doesn't hold back on the risks - or the opportunities.

Stijn Scmidt welcomes Adrian Day to the show. Adrian Day is CEO of Adrian Day Asset Management & Manager of EuroPacific Gold Fund. In this comprehensive discussion, Day provides insights into the current precious metals market, highlighting several key trends and investment opportunities. Day argues that the fundamental reasons for gold investment remain strong, particularly from central banks and wealthy individuals concerned about fiscal instability. Central banks continue to diversify away from dollar assets, with dollar holdings in foreign reserves dropping from 75% to around 47.5% in recent years. This trend, coupled with geopolitical tensions and concerns about dollar weaponization, suggests continued gold purchasing. Regarding market dynamics, Day notes that generalist investors are beginning to show increased interest in gold. Recent data shows significant inflows into gold-related ETFs, with $3.3 billion entering the GLD in just one month. He believes the current economic environment - characterized by potential interest rate cuts, stubborn inflation, and a weakening dollar - creates an ideal scenario for gold investment. Day sees significant potential in gold mining stocks, arguing that despite recent price increases, valuations remain attractive. He highlights opportunities in both large-cap producers like Barrick and intermediate-sized companies like Equinox and B2. For silver, he suggests the market remains promising, with potential for meaningful price increases due to unique supply and demand characteristics. In the exploration and junior mining sector, Day sees substantial untapped potential. Many companies remain undervalued, and he believes the broader sector has yet to experience a significant uplift. He emphasizes the importance of patience and quality management when investing in exploration companies. Regarding other metals, Day expresses particular enthusiasm for silver and maintains a neutral stance on oil, preferring to focus on gold, silver, copper, and uranium. His investment approach remains globally diversified, sector-agnostic, and focused on understanding the fundamental value of potential investments.

Interview with Andrew Cox, President & CEO of Rio2 Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/from-mega-mines-to-lean-machines-rio2-ltd-vista-golds-blueprint-for-fast-track-gold-production-7298Recording date: 10th September 2025Rio2 Limited presents a compelling investment opportunity as one of the few genuine new gold producers emerging in a market increasingly characterized by consolidation rather than organic growth. The company's Fenix Gold project in Chile is approaching first production in January 2026, positioned to capitalize on record-high gold prices exceeding $3,600 per ounce—more than double the $1,800 assumptions used in the original feasibility study.The project demonstrates exceptional execution discipline under CEO Andrew Cox's leadership, maintaining its production timeline while operating slightly under budget. Construction has progressed systematically with completed earthworks across 12 hectares of leach pads and process solution ponds, while mineral movement to the pad has already commenced. The company's $50 million funding arrangement with Wheaton Precious Metals eliminates typical development-stage financing uncertainties, providing clear visibility to cash flow generation.The management team's 11-year partnership and proven track record of building two previous operations with the same contractor relationships significantly reduces execution risk. This experience is evident in their methodical construction sequencing, targeting solution circulation by November and gold room completion by late December 2025.Fenix Gold targets 20,000 tons per day processing capacity, achievable by August-September 2026 through heap leach technology. The 90-day leach cycle provides relatively rapid cash flow generation, with approximately 50% of gold recovery occurring within the first 30-40 days of production. This operational profile, combined with current gold pricing, creates substantial cash generation potential from the project's 5 million ounce resource base.The most significant value driver lies in the project's expansion potential. Rio2 is advancing partnerships with two desalination providers in Copiapó to secure water supply for expanded operations. The proposed 160-kilometer pipeline infrastructure, requiring approximately $350 million in capital, would enable production of 300,000 ounces annually for 10 years—creating an estimated $3 billion in additional value.This expansion case transforms Rio2 from a mid-tier producer into a significant gold operation, supported by substantial inferred resources requiring conversion and exploration upside in boundary areas and depth extensions.Rio2's emergence occurs during unprecedented industry consolidation, where major producers like Newmont, Barrick, and Kinross pursue growth through acquisitions rather than organic development. This environment creates strategic optionality for Rio2, whether through independent expansion or potential acquisition by larger producers seeking established operations with growth potential.The company's single-asset concentration, while presenting risk, also provides focused execution and clear value catalysts. Management actively evaluates acquisition opportunities to diversify the asset base while maintaining commitment to the Fenix expansion.Rio2 offers investors a unique combination of near-term production certainty and transformational expansion potential. The company's disciplined execution, experienced management, and strategic timing during favorable gold market conditions create multiple pathways for value creation. With production approaching and expansion studies advancing, Rio2 represents both income generation and significant growth optionality in a proven geological setting during an optimal market environment for gold producers.View Rio2 company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/rio2-limitedSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this episode, we chat with Greg Lang, President and CEO of NOVAGOLD, who are a well-financed precious metals company focused on the development of its 60% owned, federally permitted Donlin Gold project in Alaska. Greg brings a wealth of experience, having held senior leadership roles at some of the world's largest mining companies, including Barrick Gold. Today, we explore his journey to the helm of NOVAGOLD and delve into what makes the company's vision distinct in today's mining landscape. We'll discuss pivotal moments like Barrick's exit from Donlin, the strategic role of Paulson Advisers LLC, and how NOVAGOLD is navigating the project's future—from ESG commitments and permitting milestones to community partnerships and long-term economic development in Alaska. KEY TAKEAWAYS NOVAGOLD is primarily focused on the development of the Donlin Gold project in Alaska, which is recognised as one of the largest and highest-grade undeveloped gold deposits globally The company has established strong partnerships with local Native corporations, such as Callister Corporation and the Casco Wind Corporation NOVAGOLD has made significant strides in the permitting process, having completed federal permitting and received a record of decision from the Army Corps of Engineers and the Bureau of Land Management NOVAGOLD emphasises sustainability and community engagement as foundational elements of its operations, actively involving local communities BEST MOMENTS "I was always fascinated by the scale of the asset. You know, I've been around a lot of gold mines that ultimately got to 40 million ounces, but none of them ever started that big." "Barrick's decision to divest Donlin marked a major turning point... they had other competing priorities, and now with Paulson and NOVAGOLD, we are totally aligned on taking this project forward." "Donlin is located in a very impoverished part of the state of Alaska... there's no economic engine on the horizon that will create the kind of employment that Donlin will." "Sustainability is increasing, pivotal in the mining sector" VALUABLE RESOURCES Mail:        rob@mining-international.org LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-3a26a68/ X:              https://twitter.com/MiningRobTyson YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DigDeepTheMiningPodcast  Web:        http://www.mining-international.org GUEST SOCIALS  https://novagold.com/ https://x.com/novagold https://www.facebook.com/NovaGold https://www.linkedin.com/company/novagold/ CONTACT METHOD rob@mining-international.org https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-tyson-3a26a68/ Podcast Description Rob Tyson is an established recruiter in the mining and quarrying sector and decided to produce the “Dig Deep” The Mining Podcast to provide valuable and informative content around the mining industry.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he breaks down today's biggest stories shaping America and the world. Trump Rejects Epstein Obsession, Fires Comey's Daughter President Trump lashes out at MAGA supporters still focused on the Epstein case, calling them “past supporters” duped by a hoax. Meanwhile, the DOJ fires Maurene Comey, James Comey's daughter and a former Epstein-related prosecutor. Bryan notes how bizarre the case has become, especially with Ghislaine Maxwell now appealing to the Supreme Court under Epstein's old plea deal. Trump Uses IRS Data to Locate and Deport Illegal Immigrants The administration is now using IRS records, including ITIN filings, to track down updated addresses for undocumented migrants. Democrats warn of racial profiling and mass arrests, but a court has upheld the program. ICE arrests are climbing toward an annual pace of 330,000, with new policies encouraging self-deportation and long-term detention for those apprehended. Eswatini Accepts U.S. Deportees the World Refuses to Take The African kingdom of Eswatini has agreed to imprison deportees that countries like Cuba, Yemen, and Laos refuse to accept. King Mswati III has taken in five convicted criminals for now. Bryan praises the move as a brilliant deterrent: mess with America and end up in a country you can't find on a map. Riots in Spain as Migrant Violence Sparks Vigilante Justice After a 68-year-old Spaniard was beaten by Moroccan migrants, vigilante attacks erupted in Torre Pacheco. Bryan frames this as part of a larger European backlash against open borders and leftist immigration policies that ignore cultural and national identity. Gaza Stampede Kills 20 as Humanitarian Aid Crisis Deepens Armed militants reportedly triggered a deadly panic at a Gaza aid site. Israeli leaders and military officials blame disorganized aid distribution and lingering Hamas interference. Peace talks remain deadlocked over the group's future role and the governance of Gaza. Mali Junta Uses Helicopters to Steal $117M in Gold from U.S. Miner Mali's ruling junta seized a ton of gold from Barrick's mine after a profit-sharing dispute. The theft underscores growing instability and radicalism in Africa, where Russian meddling and Islamic terror groups are driving waves of migration into Europe.

La presse malienne est dithyrambique après la pose de la première pierre d'un complexe de transformation aurifère situé à Sénou, commune VI du district de Bamako. « Ce 16 juin 2025 restera gravé dans l'histoire du Mali, s'exclame L'Aube, comme un retour au passé glorieux de Kankou Moussa, demeuré jusqu'à aujourd'hui l'homme le plus riche du monde. Un record jamais égalé et toujours détenu par celui qui était jadis à la tête de l'Empire du Mali. » L'Aube fait donc allusion à Kankou Moussa, roi des rois de l'empire malien au XIVe siècle, considéré par certains comme l'homme le plus riche de tous les temps, avec une fortune évaluée à 400 milliards de dollars. Une fortune principalement constituée d'or. Retour au présent : désormais, poursuit L'Aube, « Bamako ne se contentera plus d'être un simple exportateur de matières premières. Dans un geste empreint de détermination et de conviction, le Général d'Armée Assimi Goïta a officiellement lancé les travaux de construction de la première raffinerie d'or de l'industrie minéralogique malienne. Cette raffinerie, conçue pour être la plus grande d'Afrique de l'Ouest avec une capacité de traitement de 200 tonnes d'or par an, est le fruit d'une stratégie nationale bien pensée, poursuit le quotidien malien, qui repose sur un partenariat stratégique avec la Fédération de Russie, à travers le groupe industriel Yadran. Le Mali détiendra une participation majoritaire de 62% du capital. Dans un contexte mondial où les ressources naturelles sont souvent synonymes de prédation, cette collaboration représente un acte d'indépendance économique significatif pour Bamako. » Offensive économique La symbolique est forte, renchérit Sahel Tribune. Pour un pays classé 3e producteur d'or en Afrique, mais longtemps confiné à l'exportation de minerai brut, cette raffinerie incarne un saut qualitatif vers la souveraineté économique. (…) Cette raffinerie s'inscrit dans la continuité des réformes initiées par le gouvernement de transition, pointe encore le quotidien malien. Depuis 2022, Bamako multiplie les initiatives : audit des contrats miniers, relèvement des parts de l'État, obligation pour les exploitants d'affiner l'or localement… une ligne claire s'impose, insiste Sahel Tribune : faire de l'or un levier de développement maîtrisé et redistributif. » Exit les compagnies occidentales ! Et pour ce faire, la junte malienne a opéré un grand coup de balai. « Progressivement, Bamako avance ses pions, relève L'Infodrome à Abidjan, pour reprendre le contrôle de ses ressources naturelles. » Avant-hier, « dans le bras de fer entre l'État malien et le groupe canadien Barrick, le tribunal de commerce de Bamako a ordonné la mise sous administration provisoire de la mine de Loulo-Gounkoto pour une durée de six mois. Cette décision, sollicitée par les autorités maliennes, vise à relancer les activités d'extraction sur ce site stratégique situé à l'ouest du pays, à l'arrêt depuis janvier. » « Les juges ont ainsi nommé Zoumana Makadji administrateur provisoire de la mine d'or, précise Jeune Afrique. Ancien ministre malien de la Santé et de l'Hygiène publique au Mali, Zoumana Makadji est un expert-comptable jouissant d'une bonne réputation à Bamako, présenté comme "intègre et doté d'une moralité". Avec cette décision, Barrick, jusque-là opérateur de Loulo-Gounkoto, n'a plus la main sur la gestion du site, d'un point de vue opérationnel comme financier. » Pression maximale C'est le dernier épisode en date d'un long bras-de-fer. Depuis son arrivée au pouvoir, la junte exerce une pression maximale pour tirer un meilleur profit des revenus de l'industrie minière. « Il y a deux ans, rappelait récemment Le Monde Afrique, le président Assimi Goïta avait introduit une réforme du code minier permettant à l'État de prendre jusqu'à 30 % des parts dans les nouveaux projets et réduisant les avantages fiscaux des entreprises étrangères. Le gouvernement malien exige que les contrats existants soient renégociés, quelles que soient les conventions passées avec les administrations précédentes. Une revendication exprimée sur fond de hausse continue des cours de l'or, dont le Mali est le troisième producteur africain et qui constitue 75 % de ses recettes d'exportation. »

Interview with Darren Cooke, CEO, FireFly MetalsRecording date: 5 May 2025FireFly Metals has emerged as a compelling turnaround opportunity in the Canadian mining sector following its strategic acquisition of the Green Bay copper-gold project in Newfoundland. The company acquired the asset from administration in August 2023, securing an unencumbered deposit after clearing all previous debt and unfavorable contracts that had plagued the former operator.Under CEO Darren Cooke, a seasoned geologist with experience at Northern Star, Barrick, and Newmont, FireFly has transformed the project's prospects through aggressive resource expansion and strategic infrastructure planning. The company has grown the resource base by 50% from 40 million tons to 60 million tons through a comprehensive 90,000-meter drilling program, with recent results indicating the ore body extends at least 200 meters beyond current boundaries.The previous operator's failure stemmed from a fundamental infrastructure mismatch—operating a 500,000 ton per annum processing plant against a 40+ million ton resource. Cooke illustrated the problem succinctly: "So it would take 80 years to actually process what they had when we bought it." FireFly's solution involves building a right-sized 1.8 million ton per annum processing plant on-site, eliminating transport costs and reducing port access from 140 kilometers to just 6 kilometers.The project's high-grade nature, averaging approximately 2% copper with gold credits, provides significant economic advantages over large-scale porphyry deposits that require decades and billions in capital for development. Recent market conditions further support the project's value proposition, with negative treatment charges reflecting strong demand for quality copper concentrate.FireFly recently completed a $77-80 million capital raise led by institutional investors from Canada, the US, and London, with BlackRock as the largest shareholder. This funding provides runway through feasibility studies and early construction phases, positioning the company for rapid production timeline in a jurisdiction known for favorable mining conditions and skilled workforce availability.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/firefly-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Jon Deluce, Founder & CEO of Abitibi Metals Corp.Recording date: 3rd June 2025Abitibi Metals Corp (CSE:AMQ) presents a compelling copper development opportunity through its control of Quebec's B26 deposit, a substantial resource that recently entered public markets for the first time after two decades of government development. The company's combination of asset scale, jurisdictional advantages, and patient capital positioning addresses key investor priorities in the current copper market environment.*Asset Quality and Scale*The B26 deposit represents one of Canada's larger undeveloped copper resources, with 18.5 million tons grading 2.18% copper equivalent. Located in Quebec's established mining region, the asset benefits from strong metallurgical characteristics including 98% copper recovery and 90% gold recovery rates. Significant gold credits in inferred resources enhance overall project economics while expanding potential acquirer interest beyond traditional copper companies.The deposit's technical profile ranks in the top 10% of VMS opportunities globally according to management, with a 1.6-kilometer continuous strike length open in both directions. This expansion potential distinguishes B26 from typical junior-developed assets, as systematic exploration has been limited during its government development phase.*Financial Strength and Deal Structure*Abitibi maintains exceptional financial positioning with $18.4 million cash funding operations through Q1 2027, eliminating near-term dilution pressure. Abitibi Metals completed and confirmed in collaboration with its partner SOQUEM that all requirements to earn a 50% interest in the B26 Polymetallic deposit have been successfully fulfilled. The company has completed over $10 million of its $14.5 million work commitment to progress 80% ownership of B26 ahead of schedule.  This partnership structure provides both government backing and clear pathways to 100% ownership while aligning with Quebec's economic development objectives. The province's mining-friendly regulatory environment and established infrastructure reduce development risk compared to more remote or jurisdictionally challenging locations.*Operational Development and Strategy*CEO Jon Deluce brings relevant industry experience including operational exposure with Kirkland Lake Gold and Barrick, while recent executive additions from O3 Mining and Agnico Eagle strengthen the team's development credentials. The company has transitioned from contractor reliance to full-time operational capabilities, addressing previous execution challenges that impacted market performance.Abitibi's immediate drilling program targets 400-1,000 meter depths using directional techniques to optimize cost efficiency while testing both near-term economic zones and longer-term expansion potential.Investors OutlookThe company's current valuation at approximately half its cash position suggests significant disconnect between asset quality and market recognition. Management is pursuing multiple value catalysts including engineering studies to demonstrate economic viability, aggressive resource and  expansion drilling.Quebec's advantages as a tier-one jurisdiction become increasingly valuable as supply chain security concerns drive premiums for politically stable copper sources. With limited comparable opportunities in the Canadian market and growing institutional interest in copper-gold assets, Abitibi's combination of resource scale, financial strength, and jurisdictional security positions the company favorably for revaluation as operational catalysts unfold through 2025.View Abitibi Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/abitibi-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

The CK Gold Project, located just outside Cheyenne, Wyoming, has now cleared every major regulatory hurdle — including air, water, and environmental approvals — and is ready to move toward development.Luke Norman walks us through how U.S. Gold Corp transformed CK from an exploration-stage “science project” into a shovel-ready mine with a 1.5Moz reserve and a robust economic profile. What makes this story different is not just the asset, but the location. With paved roads, nearby rail, grid power, and a skilled local workforce, this is a low-cost build with very few logistical headaches.We also dig into the asset breakdown: about 70% of the economics come from gold and 30% from copper, based on $2,100/oz gold and $4.10/lb copper assumptions. The projected AISC is just $940/oz, and the initial 10-year mine plan is designed for 100,000 oz/year gold equivalent production. But as Luke points out, the current reserve is drill-constrained — and the mineralization continues well beyond the existing pit shell.One key focus of the conversation is how the company plans to finance development without blowing out the share structure. With only 14 million shares outstanding and $15 million in cash, U.S. Gold Corp is looking to raise the ~$300M capex through non-dilutive options like concentrate offtake agreements, federal/state grants, and Wyoming's municipal bond program.We also touch on the broader macro backdrop. Both gold and copper have now been designated as critical minerals in the U.S., with copper demand rising rapidly due to electrification, AI infrastructure, and energy transition. CK Gold is well positioned to meet that demand from a domestic source, with low environmental risk and strong local support.What stood out in this discussion is the company's execution discipline and capital alignment. Luke and CEO George Bee (former builder of Barrick's Goldstrike mine) aren't chasing flashy exploration headlines. They're focused on building a mine — on budget, on time, and with real revenue in sight.We also talk about community support, local benefits (like royalty payments to Wyoming schools), and the unique permitting advantages that come with being located on state ground. CK Gold isn't just a mine — it's a strategic U.S. asset, with real economic and social upside.If you're looking for a near-term U.S. gold-copper story that's fully permitted, tightly structured, and run by experienced mine builders — this is a conversation worth your time.US Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/us-gold-corp

In this episode, we have a returning guest who appeared back in Episodes 298 and 451, Alex Walker, CEO of East Star Resources, are focused on the discovery and development of VMS, porphyry and sediment hosted copper deposits in Kazakhstan.A former captain in the Australian Army Reserves, Alex has more than 15 years of investment banking, mining finance, and management experience before joining East Star in 2021. He gives us an update since we last spoke in July 2024, updates on their drilling campaigns, ESG, and how Kazakhstan is developing as a mining jurisdiction. KEY TAKEAWAYS Kazakhstan is emerging as a favourable mining jurisdiction, attracting significant investment from major companies like Fortescue, Barrick, and Ivanhoe. The country has made strides in improving its regulatory framework, including digitising applications and maintaining a stable royalty rate. The company is utilising modern exploration techniques, including AI data processing and advanced geochemical sampling, to enhance target identification and reduce fieldwork time. These technologies are helping to refine their understanding of potential deposits. East Star is committed to integrating Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into its operations. The company emphasises community engagement, social responsibility, and minimizing environmental impact, particularly by leveraging existing infrastructure in the region. In the short to medium term, East Star Resources plans to initiate drilling at multiple targets, including Rulikha and Talovskoye, while continuing to refine its resource model for Verkhuba. The company aims to grow its resource base and advance towards feasibility studies within the year. BEST MOMENTS "Kazakhstan is a fantastic place. The people are very welcoming, very friendly. It's quite a melting pot... and certainly our friendship group here is quite diverse as well." "We think that Kazakhstan ticks that box massively... It's probably one of the few jurisdictions globally that you could say is moving in the right direction." "Copper is entering a multi-generational bull market... The new oil is copper because we need that to decentralise the grids." "We would like to start pushing that through scoping studies and into feasibility work. So I hope that we can do all of that this year."

Interview with Walter Coles, Executive Chairman of Skeena Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/skeena-resources-tsxske-fully-funded-high-grade-gold-poised-for-production-5657Recording date: 29th May 2025Skeena Gold & Silver is developing the Eskay Creek Mine in British Columbia, positioned to become one of the world's largest gold-silver mines when production begins in early 2027. This project represents a compelling investment opportunity with exceptional economics, significant upside potential, and multiple near-term catalysts that could drive substantial share price appreciation.The project's economics are truly remarkable. At $3,200/oz gold price, Eskay Creek boasts an after-tax NPV of $4.5 billion and an extraordinary 72% internal rate of return. This translates to a payback period of just over six months on the $700 million construction cost. Most impressively, Skeena's all-in sustainable cost per ounce is projected at less than $600 for the first six years of production, compared to approximately $1,700 for major producers like Barrick and Newmont. "We have a project that's super super low on the cost curve, enormously profitable per ounce of production.", explains Coles. This cost advantage creates exceptional profit margins even at much lower gold prices.Skeena has secured comprehensive financing through Orion Resource Partners, removing a major uncertainty that typically impacts junior developers. The $750 million package includes equity, a gold stream, and debt facilities. Since announcing this funding, Skeena's stock has nearly tripled from around $6 to $17 Canadian. The company is now exploring refinancing options to reduce its cost of capital as the project de-risks.Beyond the base case, Skeena is advancing several value-enhancement initiatives. The company plans to extend the mine life from 12 to 15-16 years by incorporating the high-grade Snip deposit and the Albino Lake waste facility. Additionally, Skeena has identified significant antimony, lead, and zinc content worth potentially 2.2 million tons of waste tailings that could be recovered with minimal additional costs.Investors can look forward to several near-term catalysts such as final permits expected in Q4 2025, refinancing of the Orion loan facility in Q1 2026, updated feasibility study in the first half of 2026, and production commencement in early 2027.Skeena's partnership with the Tahltan First Nation adds another layer of strength to the project. The company signed the first agreement in Canada giving a First Nation formal consent rights over a mining project, creating a true partnership that reduces social and political risk factors.For investors seeking exposure to precious metals with significant upside potential, Skeena offers a rare combination of exceptional grade, economics, and execution capability in a tier-one jurisdiction. As the company advances toward production and begins generating substantial cash flow, the valuation gap with producing peers is likely to close, potentially delivering substantial returns to investors who position themselves ahead of these developments.View Skeena Gold & Silver's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/skeena-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Today we're reconnecting with a guest who many of you will remember from one of our most popular episodes a couple of years ago. Sara Barrick, formerly Sara Bidler, has returned to share more of her invaluable insights. Since we last spoke, Sara has published her book "Demystifying Misophonia," which I highly recommend to all our listeners. As a licensed marriage and family therapist specializing in misophonia and trauma healing, Sara brings a unique perspective on understanding misophonia as a complex syndrome rather than a single condition. In our previous conversation, she opened many eyes to the role of the nervous system and implicit learning in our reactions to triggers. Today, we'll dive deeper into these concepts and explore the pathways toward healing that Sara has discovered through her work.Book website: Demystifying MisophoniaLink to purchase on AmazonInstagram: @misophoniahealing Facebook: Sara Barrick -----Web: https://misophoniapodcast.comOrder "Sounds like Misophonia" - by Dr. Jane Gregory and ISupport the podcast at https://misophonia.shopEmail: hello@misophoniapodcast.comSend me any feedback!
