Interview with Allen Sabet, CEO of Mogotes Metals Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/mogotes-metals-tsxvmog-26m-treasury-funds-drilling-in-one-of-worlds-largest-copper-discoveries-7941Recording date: 4th March 2026Mogotes Metals entered 2026 as an exploration company ready to drill. After three years and approximately C$25 million spent building geochemical, geophysical, and geological datasets across its Filo Sur project in Argentina's Vicuña district, the company now has three rigs operating along the same structural corridor that hosts Filo del Sol — the deposit that its joint venture owners describe as the largest copper discovery in 30 years.The drilling programme targets 6,000–8,000 metres this austral summer season across multiple ranked and permitted targets, with approximately 3,000 metres already completed. The season budget is approximately C$20 million, funded from a C$55 million treasury. That treasury was built with the participation of two strategically significant investors: CD Capital, a London-based fund that previously made approximately 15 times its money investing in Filo del Sol, and the Braun family of Argentina, a family office with direct regional knowledge. CD Capital's Carmel Daniele has joined the Mogotes board — the same role she held at Filo del Sol.The geological case rests on the north-south structural belt that connects Filo del Sol, Altar, Valeriano, and now Filo Sur. Mogotes holds the full strike projection of Filo del Sol's known mineralisation. The geophysical programme identified multiple high-chargeability, low-resistivity anomalies consistent with the subsurface signatures that defined the early drilling success at Filo del Sol and Valeriano. These are the targets now being drilled. CEO Alan Sabet has been measured in framing expectations — proximity to a tier-one discovery does not guarantee replication — but the technical approach mirrors the methodology that worked at comparable deposits across the Andes.The company's second announcement at PDAC 2026 was the option agreement on a copper-gold asset in Kazakhstan. The asset hosts an historic resource of approximately six million gold-equivalent ounces, with mineralisation beginning at approximately 40 metres depth and remaining open at depth and laterally. Drilling costs run at approximately US$80 per metre — a fraction of typical Andean costs — and the permitting environment supports a mining licence application within six months.For Mogotes, the strategic logic is clear. Filo Sur is a seasonal operation confined to the austral summer. Kazakhstan can be drilled year-round and provides continuous news flow during the months when Andean operations are dormant. It also provides a second value creation pathway: integrating existing unincorporated drilling data into a new resource estimate, step-out and depth drilling, and testing a separate porphyry target with potential high-grade gold.For investors, the near-term calendar is defined. Filo Sur drill results are expected in May and June 2026, representing the first direct geological test of the project's multi-year dataset. Kazakhstan work will begin in parallel, providing additional news flow through the second half of the year. The company enters this period with a well-funded treasury, institutional validation from directly comparable capital, and a disciplined deployment plan that preserves follow-up capacity regardless of what the first drill holes return.View Mogotes Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/mogotes-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Alberto Orozco, CEO, Capitan SilverOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/capitan-silver-tsxvcapt-60000m-drill-blitz-targets-20km-mexican-silver-system-in-2026-9013Recording date: 5th of March 2026Capitan Silver Corp is executing an aggressive exploration strategy at its Cruz de Plata project in Durango, Mexico, following a transformative 2025 that repositioned the company from dormancy to active development with institutional backing and expanded geological understanding.The company's resurgence began when Jupiter Gold and Silver Fund led a financing round at a 30% premium to market—a rare achievement for junior miners—providing capital to restart operations. CEO Alberto Orozco explained that management deliberately waited for favorable market conditions and the right institutional partner rather than advancing exploration during a weak silver market.The second critical catalyst was acquiring surrounding land from Fresnillo, which fundamentally changed the project's geological interpretation. What initially appeared to be a silver vein evolved into a complete mineral system, tripling high-grade silver structure targets from 7 kilometers to over 21 kilometers of cumulative strike length. The expanded land package revealed consistent surface expressions of mineralization around an intrusive body, supported by early geophysical data.Capitan Silver employed a strategic drilling approach focused on capital efficiency, using shallow reverse circulation drilling to maximize drill holes and data density rather than expensive deep holes. This methodology delivered high-resolution geological understanding, identified continuity along strike, and discovered new high-grade zones while maintaining budget discipline.For 2026, the company launched a 60,000-meter drill program, ramping from one rig to four with continuous operation. The expanded campaign will test depth extensions of known zones and evaluate new targets across the consolidated property, aiming to demonstrate the scale potential of what management describes as a rare, high-grade silver system.A distinguishing factor is management's operational pedigree. The core team previously built and operated three mines on time and on budget at Argonaut Gold in the same Mexican region, bringing mine-building expertise to an exploration-stage company. This experience informs their evaluation of Cruz de Plata's development feasibility, considering the project's easy access, nearby infrastructure, and favorable topography alongside its geological merit.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/capitan-silverSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Bill Powers interviews First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua following PDAC, where the company received a non-repayable C$16.7M grant and highlighted government support for critical mineral supply chains. Passalacqua says the funding de-risks the company through feasibility, permitting, and toward a final investment decision, with drilling nearly complete and a feasibility study targeted for December 2026. He explains LFP batteries are largely phosphate-based and that First Phosphate's high-purity igneous phosphate resource in Quebec is rare and advantaged by proximity to infrastructure and a deep-sea port. He discusses phosphate being added to Canada's critical minerals list and related tax credits for downstream facilities, outlines a 10,000 tpa LFP CAM plant concept pending tariff clarity, and reviews U.S. market access via OTCQX and a new 10:1 ADR, along with insider share purchases and recent stock highs. 00:00 Intro 00:54 Canada Grant Impact 02:11 Drilling and Feasibility Timeline 03:02 Why LFP Needs Phosphate 04:05 Infrastructure and Location Edge 05:29 Critical Minerals List Benefits 07:55 Downstream Plant and Tariff Pause 09:03 Europe and US Strategy 10:20 OTCQX Tickers and ADR Explained 14:07 Insider Buying and Alignment 15:05 Valuation and Execution Outlook 16:53 Wrap Up and Disclaimers First Phosphate Introductory Interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eD7t1Q7OZfU Press releases discussed: https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-nrcan-funding-16-7m/ https://firstphosphate.com/canada-critical-minerals-phosphate-clean-tech/ https://firstphosphate.com/first-phosphate-adr-program-fphoy-otcqx/ https://firstphosphate.com/ CSE: PHOS – FSE: KD0 – OTCQX: FRSPF – OTCQX-ADR: FPHOY Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor First Phosphate pays Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.

Watch on YouTubeGreat Western Mining #GWMO has just appointed Ed Loye as chief executive. A recent raise of more than £3 million has given him an ample warchest with which to get down to work on the company's suite of exploration assets in Nevada. Top of the agenda is to work up the tungsten opportunity at Defender, itself part of a large skarn which links to the company's existing copper resource at M2, a couple of kilometres away. Drilling is planned in the summer, and there will likely be plenty of newsflow in the run up to that work

Interview with Dev Randhawa, Chairman & CEO of F3 Uranium Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/f3-uranium-tsxvfuu-tetra-zone-discovery-advances-with-20m-financing-8639Recording date: 3rd March 2026F3 Uranium Corp. (TSXV:FUU) is a focused Athabasca Basin uranium explorer with a credible asset base, a fully funded exploration program, and a management team actively working to resolve the structural issue limiting its share price: it is too small to attract the institutional capital its asset quality arguably deserves.The company's JR Zone maiden resource of approximately 11 million pounds of uranium at 12% U₃O₈ is a material achievement. Grades at that level are exceptional by any standard in the Athabasca Basin, which already hosts the world's highest-grade uranium mines. The JR Zone also sits 25 kilometres from established milling infrastructure, meaning any future development pathway would not require construction of standalone processing facilities. A major operator has already approached F3 about applying a selective extraction method to the deposit, which underscores the project's practical viability even at its current modest scale.The 2025 exploration focus has shifted to the Tetra target, a newly identified conductor system on the same property. F3's team identified this system after prior operators walked away, having missed a large conductor obscured by a mudstone flare. Early drilling has confirmed two high-grade uranium intersections 15 metres apart, and the conductor extends at least 1.4 kilometres with room to grow. With 90% of the $12 million drill budget directed at Tetra and only one hole completed to date, investors are essentially looking at an early-stage discovery in progress. The Athabasca-style mineralisation is notoriously difficult to follow, and misses are common but so is the upside if the system proves to be large.F3's financial position reduces one of the more common risks for small-cap exploration companies. With $22 million in cash and no requirement to raise additional capital in 2026, the company can execute its program on its own terms. In a market where junior uranium equities have struggled to attract financing, this is a meaningful competitive advantage.The more pressing strategic challenge is scale. Several uranium-focused ETFs have set minimum market capitalisation thresholds that exclude F3, and the resulting selling pressure was visible in the sector in late 2025. CEO Dev Randhawa acknowledged this directly and is actively pursuing consolidation options, including mergers, acquisitions, joint ventures, and dual-listing in jurisdictions such as Australia, where comparable assets may trade at higher valuations. Three separate M&A discussions were underway at PDAC 2026.The macro environment provides a supportive backdrop. Big technology companies are now direct participants in the nuclear energy market, securing power purchase agreements for reactor output to fuel AI data centre infrastructure. This adds a demand vector for uranium that sits outside traditional utility procurement cycles and is largely insensitive to short-term spot price volatility.For investors, F3 presents a combination of a defined, high-grade asset, an active early-stage discovery drill program, and a management team with both the technical credentials and the strategic intent to grow. The near-term catalysts are Tetra drill results and any announced corporate transaction. Both warrant close attention in 2026.View F3 Uranium's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/f3-uranium-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Stephen Soock, VP Investor Relations & Development of Heliostar MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/heliostar-metals-tsxvhstr-self-funding-path-from-40k-to-300k-ounces-by-2030-8846Recording date: 2nd March 2026Heliostar Metals is one of the more clearly defined growth stories in the emerging mid-tier gold space. The company is producing approximately 50,000 ounces of gold per year from its La Colorada mine in Mexico and is on a stated path to 300,000 ounces annually by the end of the decade. That growth is to be funded through internal cash flow, without reliance on the equity markets — a commitment management describes with increasing conviction as gold prices remain elevated.The investment case centers on Ana Paula, the company's flagship development asset. A PEA outlined a project capable of producing 100,000 ounces per year over a nine-year mine life at an all-in sustaining cost of approximately $1,000 per ounce. At that cost profile, Ana Paula would rank in the lowest decile of the global gold cost curve, generating substantial free cash flow across a wide range of gold price scenarios. The company is now progressing directly to a full feasibility study, expected in H1 2026, which will serve as the basis for a construction decision. First production is targeted for H2 2028.The geometry of the Ana Paula orebody underpins its economics. Rather than a series of narrow veins requiring extensive underground development, the deposit hosts a wide mineralised breccia flooded with high-grade gold, allowing meaningful ore access with relatively limited lateral development. The high-grade zone grades approximately 5,000 ounces per vertical metre — one of the highest density metrics of any underground gold project globally. Drilling has also confirmed that high-grade mineralisation continues at depth, opening the possibility of expanding Ana Paula beyond its current mine plan toward a potential tier-one scale asset.Beyond Ana Paula, the growth roadmap layers in Cerro del Gallo as a third mine, funded by Ana Paula cash flow and targeted to add another 100,000 ounces per year before the end of the decade. La Colorada continues to provide near-term production stability, with the Veta Madre open pit cutback and subsequent Creston pit extending mine life and sustaining cash generation through the Ana Paula development period.The company has also been tidying its portfolio, recently divesting a package of non-core early-stage exploration assets that did not fit the growth pipeline. Underground decline development at Ana Paula is being restarted in H2 2026, providing tangible operational momentum well ahead of the feasibility study and construction decision.On the capital structure side, Heliostar's share register is now approximately 50% institutional. Generalist funds are beginning to participate, viewing the company as a preferred vehicle for gold growth exposure. The re-rating from developer to producer multiple — which management expects to begin as Ana Paula advances through feasibility — is the key valuation catalyst for current investors.Heliostar's Q1 2026 cash flow results, Ana Paula's feasibility study release, and the progress of project finance conversations in mid-2026 are the primary milestones investors should monitor in the near term. The company has built a credible platform. Execution is now the determining factor.View Heliostar Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/heliostar-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Kiran Patankar, President & CEO of Maple Gold MinesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/maple-gold-mines-tsxvmgm-undervalued-investment-series-with-kiran-patankar-9201Recording date: 1st March 2026Maple Gold Mines enters 2026 at an operational and financial inflection point. The company is executing a 30,000-metre drill program, more than double its 2025 output, across two Quebec gold projects, Douay and Joutel, with three rigs turning around the clock in the Abitibi greenstone belt. The program is fully funded by a $30 million treasury, built through a disciplined series of financings at progressively higher share prices. There is no near-term capital requirement, which removes a significant source of uncertainty for investors assessing a junior explorer in a volatile market.The central investment argument for Maple Gold rests on a gap that is both quantifiable and actionable. Douay's existing NI 43-101 resource of approximately 3 million ounces was last updated in 2022 at a US$1,800 gold price and was constructed from drilling across just 6 of 55 kilometres of strike length the company controls. Douay has seen approximately 275,000 metres in total. The exploration upside that implies is not speculative; it is a function of metres drilled relative to geological scale.Agnico Eagle's presence as a joint venture partner and strategic shareholder matters beyond its symbolic value. It reflects the assessment of a major producer with direct operating experience in the Abitibi that Douay is a district-scale asset worth a long-term commitment. That endorsement supports both the geological thesis and the eventual range of commercial outcomes, from standalone development to strategic consolidation.The 2026 agenda is structured around converting exploration momentum into economic credibility. A resource update incorporating all post-2022 drilling and built on a geologically driven block model will provide a restated ounce count at current gold prices, giving the market a fresh basis on which to assess the per-ounce valuation gap relative to peers. That update will be followed by a preliminary economic study, the first formal analysis of what an operation at Douay-Joutel might look like. CEO Kieran Patankar has been explicit that the study will present a realistic starter scenario such as a 5,000-tonne-per-day operation rather than an optimal but unfinanceable mega-project, keeping the analysis credible and actionable for Maple Gold's current market capitalisation of approximately C$200 million.Joutel, the past-producing high-grade component of the portfolio, adds a blending and grade-optionality dimension that the economics study will need to address. Early drilling results already indicate that mineralisation extends well beyond historical mine workings, and 32 of 39 completed holes are yet to be released, providing a near-term catalyst pipeline throughout the year.For investors, the combination of a funded multi-year drill program, a deeply under-explored Tier 1 asset, institutional backing from one of the world's leading gold producers, and a clear 2026 de-risking roadmap makes Maple Gold one of the more compelling risk-reward propositions currently available in the junior gold exploration space. The resource update and economic study are the milestones to watch.View Maple Gold Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/maple-gold-mines-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Jeffrey R. Wilson, President & CEO OF Precipitate Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/precipitate-gold-tsxvprg-positions-for-discovery-in-de-risked-dominican-republic-9049Recording date: 1st March 2026Precipitate Gold Corp. (TSXV:PRG) is a junior gold and copper explorer focused on two projects in the Dominican Republic. Entering 2026, the company is better capitalised, better connected, and closer to meaningful exploration results than at any point in recent years. For investors evaluating the junior gold space, the setup warrants attention.The company closed a $6.5 million financing in January 2026, distinguishing itself not by the amount raised but by the source. Dominican Republic generational-wealth families with diversified business interests and decades of in-country influence anchored the round. They now hold more than 20% of the share registry. These are not speculative mining investors. They have also backed neighbouring Goldquest at successively higher price points, and they have expressed willingness to support future capital requirements if the exploration programmes deliver results. That kind of aligned, long-term, in-country capital is rare for a company at Precipitate's stage, and it materially changes the company's operational and regulatory posture in the Dominican Republic.The first drill programme begins at Pueblo Grande in March 2026. The project sits immediately adjacent to Barrick Gold's Pueblo Viejo open-pit mine, one of the largest gold operations on the planet. Barrick previously spent approximately $7 million exploring this ground before returning it to Precipitate. In reviewing that dataset, Precipitate's geologists identified a chargeability anomaly of geophysical indicator of potential sulphide mineralisation that appears to have been overlooked or deprioritised. The anomaly is substantial: approximately 800 by 400 metres, beginning at around 100 metres depth and extending to 350 metres, sitting roughly half a kilometre from the pit edge. Precipitate confirmed it with independent geophysical surveying. An initial programme of approximately 2,000 metres across four to five holes will determine whether the target contains meaningful mineralisation. Management has been clear: this is a binary event. Positive results will expand the programme; negative results shift focus entirely to Juan de Herrera.Juan de Herrera is the company's flagship project and sits adjacent to Goldquest's Romero deposit, a reported resource of approximately 3.5 million gold-equivalent ounces. Precipitate has assembled an extensive exploration database there over several years—surface geochemistry, geological mapping, and multiple rounds of ground geophysics—on ground that has never been drilled by any prior operator. A 10,000-metre campaign across four to five targets is planned to run from Q2 through year-end 2026. Goldquest's own 2026 drilling activity at and around Romero will independently generate news flow that draws attention to the belt, functioning as an additional catalyst that costs Precipitate nothing.The broader context matters. The Dominican Republic's regulatory environment has shifted. Community opposition that stalled permits for years has been addressed through structured engagement. Permits are being issued. Institutional interest in the jurisdiction is growing. And gold's macroeconomic backdrop—sustained elevated prices, constrained supply from ageing deposits, and continued central bank demand—provides the most supportive exploration environment in nearly a decade.Precipitate enters 2026 with a funded balance sheet, strategic assets, quality backers, and two imminent drill programmes. The risk profile is that of a junior explorer: binary outcomes are possible at Pueblo Grande, and first-pass drilling at Juan de Herrera carries inherent uncertainty. But the conditions supporting a positive outcome—geological, financial, jurisdictional, and macroeconomic—are as well aligned as they have been in the company's history. Investors with appropriate risk tolerance should be watching closely as results begin to flow from March onward.View Precipitate Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/precipitate-gold-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Philippe Cloutier, CEO, Cartier ResourcesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cartier-resources-tsxvecr-market-economics-fuel-250000m-drilling-campaign-9002Recording date: 1st of March 2026Cartier Resources (TSXV: ECR) has emerged as a unique investment opportunity in Quebec's Abitibi Greenstone belt, positioned as the only remaining independent junior explorer in the 50-kilometer corridor between Val-d'Or and Malartic. The company finds itself surrounded by major producers—Agnico Eagle, Wesdome, El Dorado, and Fresnillo—whose combined market capitalization of $200 billion dwarfs Cartier's $130 million valuation.CEO Philippe Cloutier outlined a disciplined exploration strategy that prioritizes building per-share value over responding to retail investor pressure for aggressive drilling expansion. The company is systematically evaluating 10 targets representing four mineralization types along a single fault corridor, leveraging over 100,000 meters of historical drilling data from 600+ diamond drill holes spanning 15 kilometers. Rather than prospecting randomly, Cartier is developing a comprehensive camp-scale geological model by reassessing 80 years of historical discoveries around a past-producing gold mine.Cartier's 2026 program includes continuous drilling with two rigs, metallurgical testing integration, an updated resource estimate, and a refreshed preliminary economic assessment using current gold prices rather than the $1,750 assumption from the 2023 study. The company is evaluating multiple development pathways including toll milling, proprietary mill construction, bulk sampling, and direct shipping ore scenarios, with the Portal target's proximity to infrastructure offering near-term monetization potential.Significantly, senior producers are already reviewing Cartier's data room, seeking assets with 20-30 year mine lives. Recent M&A consolidation—including Fresnillo's acquisition of Probe Gold and IAMGold's purchase of Northern Superior—demonstrates the thinning pool of quality Canadian junior assets. The company has recently acquired ground enabling exploration of Canadian Malartic-type mineralization similar to discoveries that led to Agnico Eagle's Odyssey program.With 85% of budget directed to ground-based exploration and expanded marketing efforts in Europe and Asia, Cartier maintains strategic focus on controllable factors while positioning for potential acquisition by neighboring majors seeking to extend mine life in this proven tier-one jurisdiction.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cartier-resources-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Wesley Whymark, Director & CEO of Inventus MiningRecording date: 1st March 2026Inventus Mining is doing something most junior gold companies cannot: generating cash from its asset before it has a formal resource estimate, and using that cash to fund its own growth. At its Pardo Paleoplacer project in Ontario, Canada, the company extracts gold-bearing conglomerate from surface, crushes it on-site, and trucks it to McEwen Mining's nearby mill under a pre-sale arrangement. The first bulk sample returned approximately two dollars for every dollar invested. That single data point separates Inventus from the majority of its peers, who depend entirely on shareholder capital to advance their projects.The geology underpinning this model is straightforward and well-understood. The Pardo Paleoplacer project targets a conglomerate reef averaging 2 metres thick and grading 2.5 to 3.5 grams per tonne gold, sitting at or near surface. Drilling costs are low — a single rig can complete two to three holes per day at the current target depths of 0 to 50 metres. Gold recoveries at McEwen's mill are running in the mid-90% range, with 70% of gold captured in the gravity concentrate alone. The metallurgy is not a question mark here. It has been tested at scale through the bulk sampling program itself.The company has now completed 30,000 of its permitted 50,000 tonnes of bulk sample. With 20,000 tonnes remaining, management is prioritising grid drilling to define a maiden mineral resource estimate, targeted for Q3 2026. That resource estimate is the most important near-term event for investors. It will be the first time the market has a formal, independently verified number to attach to the asset, and it will form the basis of the subsequent production permit application targeting 200,000 tonnes of material. Ontario's permitting framework is efficient — once a third-party environmental report is submitted, Ministry approval can come within 45 days. A permit submission is targeted for late 2026, with production potentially commencing in early 2027.The shareholder base adds a further layer of conviction. Eric Sprott holds 16%. McEwen's founder personally holds 17%. McEwen Inc. holds approximately 10%. Together, these three positions account for roughly 43% of the company. These are not passive holders — McEwen's mill is the processing partner, and Sprott has been involved since approximately 2013. Their continued presence signals that those closest to the asset continue to believe in its scale and economic potential.Ore sorting represents the most significant unpriced optionality in the story. A 2018 scoping study showed XRF particle sorting could recover 93% of the gold from just 40% of the mined material — a 160% uplift in mill feed grade and a meaningful reduction in trucking and processing costs. Modern XRF sorters can now process 40 to 120 tonnes per hour, making commercial-scale deployment viable in a way it was not when the study was first conducted. Bulk-scale testing is planned, and the results will be a key secondary catalyst.The risks are real but manageable. McEwen's mill pace has been slower than hoped. The resource remains undefined. Modest additional capital may be needed. But for investors looking for gold exposure through a near-production junior that funds itself, operates in a top-ranked jurisdiction, and carries endorsement from two of the resource sector's most credible names, Inventus Mining presents a case worth examining closely.View Inventus Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/inventus-mining-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Silver North Resources Board Chair Mark Brown joined Angela Harmantas at the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada or PDAC conference in Toronto to share news about the company's latest high-grade silver drill results in the Keno Hill district of Yukon and the expanded exploration program now underway. Brown highlighted that recent drilling delivered exceptionally strong grades, including one of the standout intercepts of 13 metres grading over 800 grams per tonne silver, alongside lead, zinc and 1.5 grams per tonne gold. The company also reported multiple intercepts exceeding 500 grams per tonne silver, with seven successful holes out of eight drilled in the most recent campaign. Operating in one of Canada's most prolific silver-producing regions, adjacent to Hecla Mining's Keno Hill operations, Silver North Resources Ltd is now fully funded for two years of exploration. The company plans to drill between 5,000 and 7,000 metres annually, supported by a recently completed financing completed at an average price of $0.51 per share. Brown said the company is targeting four main areas across the project, explaining that each could potentially host significant silver mineralisation. “We actually hit on seven out of eight drill holes last year,” he noted, underscoring the consistency of results to date. With airborne geophysics set to identify additional fault structures and two drills being mobilised, investors can expect steady news flow throughout the summer and into the fall. #proactiveinvestors #tsxv #snag #otcqb #tarsf #pdac2026 #SilverNorthResources #SilverStocks #SilverExploration #KenoHill #YukonMining #HighGradeSilver #PreciousMetals #MiningNews #ResourceInvesting

New Frontier Minerals Senior Consultant Kevin Das joined Steve Darling from Proactive's OTC studio in New York City to provide an update on the company's growing copper and heavy rare earth strategy, highlighting expanding exposure to the U.S. critical minerals market. Das explained that New Frontier Minerals, listed on the Australian Stock Exchange, London Stock Exchange, and recently on the OTCQB, is focused on a dual approach: advancing copper projects in northwest Queensland while also developing heavy rare earth assets. In Queensland, the company is progressing a copper project that already hosts a mineral resource of 2.1 million tonnes at 1.1% copper, representing just under 22,000 tonnes of contained copper metal. Das highlighted a recently announced broader exploration target for the Northwest Queensland Copper Project, ranging from 12 million to 57 million tonnes at grades of 0.3% to 1.5% copper, supported by 14 prospective targets across the project area. Drilling plans and budgets are under review to expand and underpin the existing resource at the Big One Deposit. In addition to copper, New Frontier is advancing heavy rare earth exploration, having secured an option on a carbonatite rare earth property in Quebec. Das emphasized the company's strategic rationale for listing on the OTCQB, noting strong U.S. demand for critical minerals and positioning New Frontier to provide the right commodities to meet that need. Management believes the combined copper and rare earth strategy, coupled with expanded U.S. market access, enhances the company's global critical minerals footprint and supports long-term growth in both supply and investor visibility. #proactiveinvestors #newfrontierminerals #asx #nfm #otcqb #nfmxf #CriticalMinerals #CopperExploration #RareEarths #ASX #OTCQB #MiningStocks #NorthwestQueensland #CopperProject #ResourceDevelopment #USMarkets #EnergyTransition #MineralExploration

Millennial Potash Chairman Farhad Abasov joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the company has been granted the “Haute Banio” exploration permit, located adjacent to its core Mayumba exploration permit in southern Gabon. The Haute Banio exploration permit covers 261.39 square kilometres and is contiguous with the Mayumba permit. Strategically positioned, it fills the gap between the existing Mayumba exploration area and the Atlantic Ocean to the north, as well as the border with the Republic of the Congo to the south. A portion of the new permit also encompasses marine coastline areas, significantly enhancing the company's coastal access. Abasov explained that the addition of the Haute Banio permit is strategically important to Millennial's long-term development plans. With this award, the company now controls all of the western coastline areas tied to the project. He noted that the issuance of the permit reflects strong and ongoing support from the Gabonese government and recognizes the substantial progress the company has made advancing the Mayumba project. Drilling planned for the second half of 2026 will target the westward extension of the thick potash mineralization identified at Banio to date. The new permit also provides direct ocean access for potential future development requirements stemming from the ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study. In addition, it includes access to an existing road linking the project area to the local airport and the nearby town of Mayumba, supporting future logistics planning. The Haute Banio exploration permit is valid for an initial three-year term and may be renewed for two additional three-year periods. Millennial has committed to a comprehensive exploration program that will include geological and geophysical studies, seismic data reinterpretation, drilling, a new resource estimate, and the development of an Environmental and Social Management Plan. With this addition, Millennial Potash now controls approximately 1,500 square kilometres of exploration ground, fully covering the prospective potash-bearing units in Gabon and further consolidating its position in the region. #proactiveinvestors #millennialpotahscorp #tsxv #mlp #otcqb #mlpnf #potash #HauteBanio #MayumbaProject #GabonMining #PotashProject #ExplorationPermit #FertilizerMarket #CriticalMinerals #DFS #ResourceExpansion #CoastalAccess #MiningDevelopment #AfricanMining #SeismicStudies #Drilling2026 #InfrastructureAccess #EnvironmentalPlanning #GlobalAgriculture #ProjectGrowth

Arizona Gold and Silver CEO Mike Stark joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss new assay results that have enhanced the company's structural understanding of the Perry Zone gold system at its Philadelphia project in Arizona. Stark said the latest core holes, PC25-159 and PC26-160, were drilled along the northern and southern limits of the Perry Zone. Both holes intersected low gold grades within previously unrecognized east-west fault structures. These faults are now interpreted to vertically offset mineralization hosted within the Arabian Fault, the primary structural control for all known gold mineralization at Philadelphia. As a result of this new data, the Perry Zone is now defined as having an approximate strike length of 165 metres, truncated by sub east-west structural complexities that appear to crosscut and displace the Arabian Fault system. The company believes hole PC25-159 was drilled structurally above the main mineralizing system, meaning the depth to the core “pay zone” remains to be determined. Similarly, hole PC26-160 is interpreted to have encountered a down-dropped structural block to the south, suggesting it too may have been drilled above the most prospective portion of the system. Drilling is ongoing, with the current rig testing the shallower, up-dip portion of the Perry Zone above hole PC25-156. At depth, the company is awaiting a drill permit to construct new drill pads to the east. Stark said the permit is expected within months and will allow for cost-effective step-out drilling designed to test the system at depth. Based on the evolving structural model, Arizona Gold & Silver believes gold grades are likely to persist in that direction, potentially expanding the footprint of the Perry Zone mineralization. #proactiveinvestors #arizonagoldandsilverinc #tsxv #azs #otcqb #azasf #GoldExploration #PhiladelphiaProject #PerryZone #GoldExploration #ArizonaMining #AssayResults #StructuralGeology #ArabianFault #DrillingUpdate #GoldSystem #MiningExploration #StepOutDrilling #ResourceExpansion #PreciousMetals #ExplorationModel #GeologyInsights #NevadaAndArizonaGold

Small Cap Breaking News You Can't Miss! Here's a quick rundown of the latest updates from standout small-cap companies making big moves today.Tiger Gold (TSXV: TIGR)Tiger Gold may have just unlocked a major growth opportunity at its Quinchía Gold Project in Colombia. The company intersected a potential feeder zone beneath its existing Tesorito resource, highlighted by:16.9 metres grading 2.3 g/t gold and 0.25% copperIncluding 6 metres at 4.1 g/t gold and 0.43% copperWithin a broader 89.96 metres grading 0.9 g/t goldWhy it matters: These results sit below the current resource model and come in at higher grades than previously expected at depth. If confirmed with follow-up drilling, this could expand the deposit and strengthen the economics outlined in its 2025 PEA, which already projected a 10-year mine life and a post-tax NPV of $534 million at $2,650 gold.Drilling is ongoing, with multiple rigs turning and more results pending.Formation Metals (CSE: FOMO)Formation is building momentum at its N2 Gold Project in Quebec's Abitibi region — one of the world's most prolific gold belts.New drill results include:0.95 g/t gold over 61.1 metresIncluding 1.68 g/t over 26.5 metres1.3 g/t over 22.2 metres1.43 g/t over 19.4 metresThis supports a growing bulk-tonnage, open-pit gold model along an 8-kilometre strike corridor. Wide, consistent mineralization near surface is exactly what large-scale open-pit developers look for.Formation is fully funded with C$12.1M in working capital and no debt, and a 30,000-metre drill program is underway. A maiden updated resource estimate is targeted later this year.Gold Runner Exploration (TSXV: GOT)Gold Runner has secured regulatory approval to acquire a 100% interest in the Golden Girl Property in British Columbia's Golden Triangle — one of Canada's most famous gold districts.Highlights:8,471 hectares of highly prospective groundLocated near the historic Snip MineSurface samples up to 11.28 g/t gold and 3,262 g/t silver95% of the property remains unexploredThe company is fully funded for its 2026 exploration program, with fieldwork starting this summer and drilling planned next season. Early-stage, high-impact exploration in a proven district can offer significant upside if discoveries follow.Heliostar Metals (TSXV: HSTR)Heliostar delivered one of the strongest drill hits of the day at its Ana Paula project in Mexico:25.45 metres grading 8.26 g/t goldIncluding 8.30 metres at nearly 20 g/t goldThis was the company's first down-dip step-out hole into the Expansion Zone — and it hit outside the current mine plan. That suggests mineralization continues deeper than previously modeled.Additional strong results from the High Grade Panel include:55.35 metres at 9.71 g/t gold23.40 metres at 8.39 g/t gold40.85 metres at 4.73 g/t goldAll new results will be included in an upcoming Feasibility Study update. With production already coming from two Mexican mines, Heliostar is advancing Ana Paula as a key growth asset.BrandPilot AI (CSE: BPAI)Switching to tech — BrandPilot AI is gaining serious enterprise traction.The company announced:A Fortune 50 U.S. healthcare provider trialTrial-to-contract conversion rates exceeding 80%Client cost-per-click reductions of up to 90%BrandPilot's AdAi platform helps large enterprises identify inefficient digital ad spending and recover wasted budget.

In this episode of the By Any Means Coaches Podcast, Tyler and Coleman sit down with Dr. Job Fransen—skill acquisition researcher, professor at Charles Sturt University, and former consultant to the Oklahoma City Thunder—to unpack what skill actually is and how coaches can better design environments that develop adaptable players. Job draws a powerful distinction between technique and skill, reframing skill as adaptability within context rather than mechanical perfection. From perception-action coupling to the limits of “memory bank” thinking, this conversation challenges traditional motor learning narratives and encourages coaches to rethink how players truly self-organize under pressure.We also dive deep into the confidence–competence continuum and why intentional practice design matters more than specific drills. Job explains how drilling can boost short-term confidence while variable, high-error environments build long-term learning—and why elite coaches must learn to surf that continuum in real time. The conversation expands into group dynamics, team learning vs. individual development, practice quality, sparring partners, feedback culture, and why decontextualized “brain training” methods often fail to transfer to the game.

Interview with Jon Bey, CEO of Standard Uranium Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/standard-uranium-tsxvstnd-35m-raised-to-hunt-high-grade-uranium-7828Recording date: 17th February 2026Standard Uranium (TSXV: STND) is a Canadian uranium exploration company with 13 projects in Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin, the world's highest-grade uranium jurisdiction. With a market capitalisation of approximately $15–20 million, the company has structured itself to maximise exploration activity while minimising shareholder dilution through a project generator business model.Rather than self-funding all exploration, Standard Uranium invites third-party joint venture partners to fund drilling on most of its projects. Under a typical deal, a partner spends $6–7 million over three years to earn a 75% interest in a project, while Standard Uranium retains 25% equity, a 2.5% net smelter return royalty, and charges operator fees to run the program using its own geological team. Those fees — estimated at $1.5–2 million annually — are sufficient to cover the company's corporate overhead, reducing the need for repeated equity raises.The company's flagship asset, Davidson River, sits outside this JV framework. The wholly-owned project covers 30,000 hectares in the southwest Athabasca Basin, adjacent to NexGen Energy's Rook I project — a discovery that transformed NexGen from a 30-cent stock into a $10 billion company over 13 years. Standard Uranium plans to drill Davidson River from May to August 2026.Two additional drill programs are already underway in 2026. The Corvo project, under JV with Aventis Energy, commenced drilling in mid-February. The Rokas project, partnered with Collective Metals, is expected to begin drilling in early March. In total, JV partners are funding an estimated $7–10 million in exploration spend across the portfolio this year.The macro backdrop supports the investment case. The uranium spot price stands near $89–90 per pound, while global nuclear capacity is forecast to triple over the next two decades, driven by clean energy targets and surging electricity demand from AI data centres. Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin is positioned as a primary source of future uranium supply.View Standard Uranium's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/standard-uraniumSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Patrick Cruickshank, Director & CEO of Nine Mile MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/nine-mile-metals-csenine-vms-drilling-unlocks-expansion-potential-5410Recording date: 5th February 2026Nine Miles Metals (CSE: NINE) is emerging as a significant explorer in New Brunswick's Bathurst Mining Camp, controlling 140 square kilometers of continuous land across four volcanogenic massive sulfide (VMS) projects. Following a transformative year of advanced geophysical work, CEO Patrick Cruickshank has outlined an aggressive 2026 exploration strategy backed by recently completed $5.5 million financing providing two years of capital.The company's flagship Nine Mile Brook project hosts what Cruickshank describes as the highest-grade lens ever recorded in Bathurst: 12% copper, 38% lead-zinc, 1,200 grams per ton silver, and 2.4 grams per ton gold over 15 meters of solid mineralization. While these exceptional grades present processing challenges—the hybrid nature requires specialized milling solutions—the company is developing a unique bulk sample processing approach with updates expected shortly.The historic Wedge mine represents a different opportunity. This past-producing deposit operated by Caminco in the 1950s-60s was abandoned when its head pillar collapsed, leaving two-thirds of known mineralization in place. Recent drilling discovered an eastern extension with intercepts up to 134 meters, while a just-completed program tested depth and southwestern extensions with assays pending. Management targets proving 7-10 million tons at Wedge to reach economic thresholds.Nine Miles Metals' competitive edge lies in systematic application of modern technology. The company flew 1,400 line kilometers of UAV drone geophysics, identifying 11 new mineralized trends. This approach delivered an 80% drill success rate at California Lake East, hitting mineralization in eight of ten holes.With 185 million shares outstanding, reduced overhead ($300,000 annual savings from office relocation), and drilling costs of just $85-100 per meter in a jurisdiction offering 30-day permitting, the company is positioned to execute multiple 2026 catalysts: pending Wedge assays, April drilling resumption at both Nine Mile Brook and Wedge, and government-funded California Lake exploration—all while maintaining optionality for strategic partnerships or sector consolidation.View Nine Mile Metals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/nine-mile-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Keith Bodnarchuk, President and CEO, and Andy Carmichael, VP of Exploration of Cosa Resources Corp. (TSXV: COSA) (OTCQB: COSAF) (FSE: SSKU) , both join me to review the news released on January 28th which announced drilling has commenced at the Company's Darby project, with drilling at Murphy Lake North (MLN) to follow. Darby and MLN are joint ventures between Cosa and Denison Mines Corp. (TSX: DML) (NYSE American: DNN) and are located 10 kilometres west of Cameco's Cigar Lake Mine and three kilometres east of IsoEnergy's Hurricane Deposit, respectively, in the eastern Athabasca Basin, Saskatchewan. Cosa is the operator of both projects and holds a 70% interest with Denison holding a 30% interest in each.   Keith starts us up highlighting the prospective geology and historic exploration work that made the Darby Project a vital component of the JV transaction with Denison. The recent identification of new drill targets as results from further analysis supports Cosa's thesis that Darby is a mature, discovery-ready project that will receive drilling targeting uranium mineralization in the year to come.   We outline that approximately 2,500 metres are planned at Darby in winter 2026 to test initial priority targets identified that came as a result of extensive historical drill core and data review at the Delta and Charlie trends by Cosa's Chairman Steve Blower and VP Exploration Andy Carmichael; as they relogged all historical Darby drill holes from prior project operators in June of this year. Their work confirmed desktop interpretations and generated immediate follow-up targets.   Andy outlines that Priority targets are the immediate vicinities of drill holes which intersected zones of coincident sandstone alteration and anomalous uranium content proximal to significant graphitic basement faults. Up to four initial target areas will be evaluated during winter 2026.   Drilling plans at MLN will kick off after the Darby drilling is completed, and will comprise approximately 1,200 metres and will follow up summer 2025 results at the Cyclone trend where broad zones of structure and alteration were intersected over a two-kilometre strike length. Drilling will target a 1,200-metre gap in existing drilling where a lake prevents summer access. Drilling will also test a potential trend parallel to and approximately 100 metres south of Cyclone interpreted from intensely graphitic rocks and faulting intersected in the basement of MLN25-007.    If you have any questions for Keith or Andy regarding Cosa Resources, then please email them to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Cosa Resources   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Interview with Scott Caithness, Managing Director of Hawk Resources Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/hawk-resources-asxhwk-december-drilling-targets-five-prospects-in-historic-copper-district-8487Recording date: 20th January 2026Hawk Resources has successfully raised A$5 million to fund an aggressive exploration campaign across two high-potential critical minerals projects, with the capital raise closing within an hour of opening due to strong investor demand. The oversubscribed raise demonstrates market confidence in the company's dual-pronged strategy targeting near-term copper-gold catalysts in Utah alongside a potentially transformational scandium opportunity in Western Australia.Managing Director Scott Caithness confirmed drilling has commenced at the company's flagship Cactus copper-gold project in Utah, with a 4,000-meter program testing six previously undrilled targets. The project carries significant historical pedigree, having been mined between 1905 and 1920 at grades of 2% copper with meaningful gold credits. Recent verification drilling by Hawk intersected 30 meters at 1.8% copper from surface, confirming the presence of high-grade mineralisation that remains accessible for modern exploration techniques.The company has allocated approximately A$3 million toward the Cactus drilling campaign, with results expected to flow from March 2026 onwards. Hawk's systematic approach integrates geophysical data, historical drilling records, and the first-ever project-wide soil sampling program to identify high-priority targets. The Copperopolis target exemplifies this methodology—a large chargeability anomaly with encouraging surface geochemistry that has never been drill-tested, despite a 1974 hole nearby intersecting 30 meters at 2% copper.Complementing the Utah copper focus, Hawk has reserved A$1-1.5 million to advance its recently acquired scandium project in Western Australia. The asset features a 4 kilometer by 7 kilometer soil anomaly with scandium grades exceeding 500 parts per million, reaching peaks of 1,200 ppm in a commodity currently worth $3,400 per kilogram. Historical shallow drilling intersected significant scandium mineralisation, though verification through laboratory assays remains the immediate priority.Caithness positions Hawk as a critical metals company with copper focus, offering investors exposure to supply-constrained commodities essential for electrification and advanced manufacturing while maintaining strategic optionality through its diversified project portfolio.View Hawk Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/alderan-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Philippe Cloutier, President & CEO of Cartier Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/cartier-resources-tsxvecr-agnico-backed-junior-targets-mining-camp-scale-gold-discovery-8319Recording date: 19th January 2026Cartier Resources represents a compelling investment opportunity in Canadian gold exploration, combining exceptional drilling economics, strategic backing from Agnico Eagle Mines, and systematic execution of a mining camp-scale discovery programme across 15 kilometres of Quebec's prolific Cadillac Fault.The investment thesis centres on resource growth from the current 3.2 million ounce baseline at the flagship Chimo Mine toward 4-5 million ounces by year-end 2026, with longer-term potential for 12-15 million ounces across multiple deposits. Independent consultants have formally identified exploration targets for an additional 1.1 million ounces achievable through disciplined drilling, validating management's systematic approach to proving up a mining camp rather than a single-asset development story.Cartier's operational advantages stem directly from location within Val-d'Or's established mining infrastructure. The company has secured all-in drilling costs of C$105-110 per metre—from site preparation through assay results to press release—representing exceptional value in the current inflationary environment. This cost structure enables an aggressive 250,000-metre programme with two rigs currently operating 24/7 and plans to deploy four to six additional rigs, matching in one year the total drilling accomplished over the previous decade.Strategic validation from Agnico Eagle, which holds a 27% stake acquired through its O3 Mining purchase, provides both financial support and technical credibility. Monthly technical committee meetings enable rapid reallocation of drilling resources based on emerging results, whilst Agnico's involvement significantly enhances Cartier's profile amongst institutional investors who view major mining company participation at the exploration stage as validation of project quality and future acquisition potential.The company has initiated critical de-risking studies that progressively enhance project economics. Independent metallurgical testwork targets 96-97% gold recovery rates versus historic 93% recoveries, whilst evaluating toll-milling opportunities at four different processing facilities within 60 kilometres. Establishing toll-milling arrangements could reduce capital expenditure by approximately C$120 million by eliminating dedicated mill construction requirements. Environmental baseline studies and a preliminary economic assessment scheduled for 2026 delivery provide the technical foundation for various development scenarios.Cartier's recent surpassing of C$100 million market capitalisation represented a critical threshold that unlocked institutional investor access previously unavailable. The company has traded over 80 million shares since July 2025, representing complete shareholder base rotation toward sophisticated investors with longer time horizons and larger position sizes. This evolution provides improved liquidity, reduced volatility, and establishes the foundation for additional institutional participation as exploration objectives are achieved.Management has demonstrated disciplined capital allocation by optioning three non-core Windfall District projects to Exploits Discovery for C$2 million cash, nearly 10 million shares, and retained royalties whilst maintaining singular focus on the Cadillac Project. Integration of AI-driven targeting methodologies has already validated discoveries like the Contact zone, accelerating exploration timelines by six to eight months compared to traditional approaches.With C$10 million in treasury supporting aggressive drilling without near-term dilution, gold prices sustained above US$4,600 per ounce dramatically improving project economics, and multiple catalysts including ongoing drill results, metallurgical studies, and year-end PEA delivery, Cartier offers substantial upside leverage at current valuations. The company trades at significant discount to peers with comparable resource bases despite superior jurisdictional advantages, strategic backing, and cost structure. For investors seeking exposure to Abitibi gold discovery potential with clearly defined catalysts and multiple value realisation pathways, Cartier Resources represents a compelling core holding within precious metals portfolios during a critical value inflection period.View Cartier Resources' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/cartier-resources-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
