Interview with Diane R. Garrett, President & CEO of Hycroft MiningOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/hycroft-mining-nasdaqhymc-nevada-giant-eliminates-debt-targets-2026-production-milestone-8914Recording date: 18th February 2026Hycroft Mining (Nasdaq: HYMC) has published an updated Mineral Resource Estimate confirming 55% growth in Measured and Indicated gold and silver resources at its Hycroft Mine in Winnemucca, Nevada. The deposit now stands at 16.4 million gold ounces and 562.6 million silver ounces in the M+I category, with inferred resources of a further 5.0 million gold ounces and 132.8 million silver ounces. The MRE was prepared by independent third parties and is based on commodity prices of US$3,100/oz gold and US$36/oz silver.The update incorporates results from 70 drill holes and reflects a geological reinterpretation that has fundamentally changed how management and institutional investors view the asset. In late 2023, Hycroft announced the discovery of two new high-grade silver systems, Brimstone and Vortex, within the existing resource footprint. After just 14 months of drilling, those systems have already yielded an initial high-grade M+I silver resource of 90.2 million ounces. Critically, both systems remain open along strike and at depth, and no results from the current 2025-2026 drill programme are yet incorporated into the MRE.Metallurgical test work using Pressure Oxidation has confirmed recoveries of 83% for gold and 78% for silver - robust figures for a refractory sulfide deposit and a key de-risking milestone ahead of a feasibility study. The company is also evaluating a roasting alternative that could convert a processing cost into a by-product revenue stream through sulfuric acid production.Financially, Hycroft is well-positioned to execute. The company holds approximately US$200 million in cash with zero debt, following the retirement of legacy liabilities in October 2024. The institutional shareholder base, led by Eric Sprott at 43%, with BlackRock, Schroders, and Franklin Templeton also on the register, reflects sustained conviction in the long-term thesis. Project economics on the large-scale operation are expected by end of Q1 2026, with an underground mining assessment of the high-grade systems also underway.—View Hycroft Mining's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/hycroft-mining-holding-corporationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Recording date: 6th February 2026The precious metals and mining sector experienced notable volatility in early February 2026, but institutional investors view the pullback as a tactical opportunity rather than a fundamental shift in market dynamics. Derek Macpherson, Executive Chairman, and Samuel Pelaez, President and CEO of Olive Resource Capital, characterize the recent correction as a normal return to established trend lines following an extended rally.The turbulence stems from temporary liquidity withdrawal by the Treasury Department and seasonal factors, particularly the Chinese New Year in mid-February, which historically coincides with reduced market participation and liquidity drawdowns. However, key global liquidity risk indicators—including option-adjusted spreads and high yield bond indices—show no systemic concerns. The Treasury Department is expected to provide net liquidity throughout 2026, while March and April historically represent strong months for commodities.Stabilizing valuations have unlocked significant M&A activity after a volatile January rally made share-exchange negotiations impractical. Three transactions highlight evolving sector dynamics:Eldorado Gold surprised markets by acquiring Foran Mining's zinc-copper project at zero premium to the previous Friday close. The move raises strategic questions as the gold-focused producer diversifies into base metals during a strong gold bull market, though the permitted mine expected to produce later in 2026 will boost cash flow.Goldsky Resources completed a transformative acquisition of full control over the Barsele deposit in Sweden from Agnico Eagle, consolidating nearly 2 million ounces. The transaction elevates Goldsky from explorer to tier-one developer with a market capitalization under $1 billion, suggesting substantial re-rating potential.CANEX Metals secured 51.93% of Great Basin Resources through a hostile takeover, positioning the company to transform a 1.5-2 million ounce Arizona asset currently in cease trade. Strong financial backing including Eric Sprott provides capital to address anticipated issues.For investors, the environment favors selective accumulation in quality names and transformation stories with defined catalysts, emphasizing jurisdiction quality, asset scale, and capital access.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Maura Kolb, President, of Dryden Gold Corp (TSX.V: DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF), joins me for an exclusive video update recapping the recent exploration results from early 2026, key takeaways from the prior 2025 exploration program, and the larger fully-funded 2026 work program at the 3 regional areas: Gold Rock Camp, Sherridon, and Hyndman across their Dryden Gold District, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada. We also review the constructive signal seen when a few key stakeholders topped their company investments in recent capital raises and through the exercising of warrants. Maura provides a brief overview of the larger district-scale land page and the exploration potential at each of the 3 key regional areas of focus. We start off reviewing some the key targets drilled in last season's 15,000 meter program along both the Big Master and Elora Gold trends at the Gold Rock Camp, incorporating the data sets from the D1, D2, and new understanding of the D3 structural faulting trends. Maura then highlights the prior drill results from around the Elora-Jubilee Target, Pearl Target, and Laurentian Mine Target; mostly on the hanging wall side of the main trends in multiple parallel trends. On February 4, 2026 Dryden announced new drill results which tested the Pearl zone in the Gold Rock Target Area. Results show continued expansion of the mineralization at Gold Rock with the discovery of two new footwall zones parallel to the main Elora shear structure at Pearl. This is the first significant mineralization discovered in the footwall of the Elora Shear at Pearl establishing another high-grade exploration target at Gold Rock. Further interpretation of existing data and this new drilling has revealed a second high-grade pod on the main Elora shear zone. The highlighted intercepts are near surface from 15 to 70 meters vertical depth. Highlights of the recent 2026 drilling at the Pearl target: Hole DGR-032 returned 6.4 g/t gold over 3.30 meters including 15.10 g/t gold over 1.00 meters in new high-grade footwall zone at Pearl Hole DGR-031 returned 77.90 g/t gold over 0.50 meters in a second footwall zone at Pearl Hole DGR-032 returned 1.61 g/t gold over 16.40 meters including 6.81 g/t gold over 2.50 meters in the Elora shear at Pearl We discuss the significance of the broader bulk tonnage mineralization that is then being upgraded by the multiple high-grade intercepts along the hanging wall and foot wall trends, and why it is encouraging to keep seeing both types of mineralization for the overall continuity of the deposit. Next we reviewed the results released on January 20th from the next 3 holes drilled at Sherridon regional area; which compliment the data collected from the first 3 drill holes put in later last year. This included a broad interval of near surface gold mineralization in hole DSH-004 which returned 1.10 g/t gold over 15.50 metres, including 0.50 metres grading 25.20 g/t gold. Testing to date has focused on only a small portion of the 5km trend, leaving the Sherridon area open in all directions. Additional drill targets for this year will be designed based on analyzing results from the first 6 drill holes in tandem with geological interpretations from soil sample geochemistry, mapping, surveys, and re-logging of historic core. Then we shifted over the Hyndman area, as a 3rd area of focus for this year's program. Maura outlines that the first 6 holes were just drilled, following up on the detailed mapping from 2024, overlaid with the data from the 2025 channel sampling program along existing outcrop exposures. Maura outlines where these first 6 drill holes were just completed at Hyndman on the map, and that assays are anticipated to be returned back from the lab in about a month. We wrap things up with outlining the strength of the management team and board of directors, as well as the very strong list of high profile shareholders like Eric Sprott, Rob McEwen, Bob Quartermain, a number of key funds and institutions, and their 2 key strategic shareholders in Centerra Gold and Alamos Gold. The company is fully funded for the 32,000 meter drill program and regional exploration initiatives for the balance of 2026. * If you have any questions for Maura regarding Dryden Gold, then please email them into us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.

Welcome to Proven and Probable. I'm your host Maurice Jackson, and today I'm joined by Ross McElroy, President & CEO of Apollo Silver. Apollo Silver has just closed a $27.5 million financing, bringing its treasury to nearly $60 million, with participation from some of the most respected names in the precious metals space — including Eric Sprott and Jupiter Asset Management, Apollo's two largest shareholders.
Rick Rule says the U.S. dollar and global fiat system are in their final phase. This isn't a normal correction. It's a quiet collapse where trust dies long before the headlines notice. Most investors are waiting for currencies to "stabilize." That's the fastest way to get trapped. Capital is moving fast. Gold and silver are breaking out. They are no longer just protection; they are opportunity as real value replaces paper promises. Rule highlights deeply mispriced U.S. community banks and beaten-down Canadian oil equities. He also shares lessons from legendary investors like Eric Sprott and Peter Cundill on how wealth survives and multiplies when the system starts coming apart. _ Sign up for my free weekly newsletter. _ WHERE TO FIND BEN MUMME
Interview with Gerald Panneton, Executive Chairman of Gold Terra Resource Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/gold-terra-resources-tsxvygt-resource-update-pea-in-612-months-ahead-of-newmont-option-8117Recording date: 7th January 2026Gold Terra Resources is advancing a compelling high-grade gold opportunity in Canada's historic Yellowknife district, where the Campbell Shear system produced 14 million ounces at 14-22 grams per tonne before shutting down in 2003 at $340 gold. With gold now exceeding $4,400 per ounce, CEO Gerald Panneton is executing a strategic pivot that transforms previously sub-economic mineralization into a robust production opportunity.The company is positioning to acquire the Con Mine by 2027, leveraging critical infrastructure advantages including existing mining lease and surface rights that eliminate major permitting hurdles. Gold Terra has identified approximately one million ounces at 5-7 g/t between surface and 1,000 meters by re-evaluating historical drilling with lower cutoff grades that remain economically robust at current prices. Key target areas include the Yellorex zone with 500,000-700,000 ounces and Zone 103 with another 500,000 ounces - both areas that were considered sub-economic when the mine closed.The 2026 execution plan centers on systematic de-risking through 15,000 meters of drilling focused on resource conversion and expansion, with an updated mineral resource estimate targeted for September and a preliminary economic assessment by year-end. The conceptual operation would process 2,000 tonnes per day, producing approximately 140,000 ounces annually with breakeven costs estimated at $1,500-$2,000 per ounce - implying margins exceeding $2,000 per ounce at current gold prices.Blue-chip mining investors including Eric Sprott, David Harquail, and Mackenzie Funds have validated the strategy through a recent $7 million financing, with 95% participation from existing shareholders. The company has already invested $20 million in 30,000 meters of drilling, establishing a substantial technical database.Panneton, who developed the Detour Lake mine into a 30-million-ounce discovery, projects that Gold Terra could achieve billion-dollar market capitalization as a cash-flowing producer by 2029-2030, representing substantial upside from current valuation of approximately $30 per ounce of resources.View Gold Terra's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/gold-terra-resource-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
In this year-end 2025 wrap-up, Craig Hemke for Sprott Money is joined by legendary investor Eric Sprott to dissect a historic year for precious metals. With gold up 65% and silver soaring, Eric discusses why the price of gold and silver are just getting started. From record-breaking physical silver demand in India to unprecedented delivery requests on the COMEX and Shanghai exchanges, Sprott believes the silver market is out of control—and that's just the beginning. Eric predicts a return to a 15:1 gold-silver ratio, suggesting silver could reach $300 if gold hits $4,500. They cover the latest on solid-state battery technology, China's silver export ban, and why mining stocks remain significantly undervalued despite the silver price doubling. If you're wondering whether now is the time to buy gold, buy silver, or dive into silver mining stocks, this is the must-watch podcast. With keywords like gold price, silver price, buy gold, buy silver, and precious metals investing front and center, you won't want to miss Eric's actionable insights. Note: This podcast was recorded on Thursday, 18th December 2025.
[Recorded December 17th, 2025]: Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins me to update us on the value proposition he see in 3 gold exploration stocks, based around recent press releases and milestones. He sees this newsflow and fundamental catalysts as much more relevant for any changes to the company's valuation (either up or down), rather than the improving sentiment within the backdrop of rising underlying precious metals price environment. The companies we discuss in this interview are: Amex Exploration Inc. (TSXV: AMX) (FSE: MX0) (OTCQX: AMXEF) – On December 16th announced the closing of its acquisition of a 100% undivided interest in the 324 non-contiguous mining claims comprising 8,392.92 hectares in the Abbotsford and Hepburn Townships in the province of Ontario. These adjacent Abbotsford and Hepburn Projects will compliment their land concessions at their flagship Perron Gold Project in Quebec. Additionally, on December 17th, Eric Sprott announced that, 2176423 Ontario Ltd., a corporation beneficially owned by him, sold 14,868,200 common shares of Amex Exploration Inc., through a private agreement, at $4.00 per Share for total consideration of $59,472,800. On the same day, Eldorado Gold Corporation (TSX: ELD) (NYSE: EGO) acquired ownership of 14,868,200 common shares of Amex Exploration Inc. at a price per Share of C$4.00, for total consideration of C$59,472,800, pursuant to a private agreement with a third party (which were Eric Sprott's shares). First Nordic Metals Corp. (TSXV: FNM) (FNSE: FNMC SDB) (OTCQX: FNMCF) and Mawson Finland Limited (TSXV: MFL) (FRA: PM6) – On Dec. 16, 2025 announced the successful closing of the previously announced acquisition by First Nordic of all of the issued and outstanding common shares of Mawson by way of a court-approved plan of arrangement. The Transaction consolidates a large and prospective gold development and exploration portfolio in Sweden and Finland, including First Nordic's Barsele Project, a joint venture with Agnico Eagle Mines Limited and its Gold Line Belt projects in northern Sweden and Oijärvi Project in Finland, and Mawson's Rajapalot Project and surrounding Rompas-Rajapalot Property in northern Finland. In connection with the Transaction, the Company will change its name to Goldsky Resources Corp., subject to receipt of the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. FireFox Gold Corp. (TSX.V:FFOX) (OTCQB:FFOXF) – On December 8, 2025 reported results from an additional four holes of its 2025/26 diamond drilling program at the Company's 100%-held Mustajärvi Gold Project in Lapland, Finland. Drill hole 25MJ005 is among the best holes yet drilled on the property, extending both shallow and deeper high-grade gold zones well to the west from previous drilling at the East Zone. We went on to speculate on how Agnico Eagle may be willing to negotiate turning over their JV interest on Barsele in Sweden with First Nordic, to focus on a regional consolidation in Finland of Firefox, Rupert, and Aurion into a district camp. Agnico already has a strategic position in both Rupert and Firefox. * In full disclosure, the companies mentioned by Erik in this interview, are positions held in his personal portfolio, and also may be site sponsors of The Hedgeless Horseman website at the time of this recording.

[Webinar Replay from December 4th, 2025] Trey Wasser, CEO, and Maura Kolb, President, of Dryden Gold Corp (TSX.V: DRY) (OTCQB: DRYGF), join us for an exclusive Webinar recapping the key takeaways from the 2025 exploration program in this comprehensive visual update with management. We touch upon all the various work programs that were completed this year at the 3 regional areas: Gold Rock Camp, Sherridon, and Hyndman across their Dryden Gold District, in Northwestern Ontario, Canada. We kick things off with Trey outlining the strength of the management team and board of directors, as well as the very strong list of high profile shareholders like Eric Sprott, Rob McEwen, Bob Quartermain, a number of key funds and institutions, and their 2 key strategic shareholders in Centerra Gold and Alamos Gold. Next Maura dove into an expanded review of some the key targets drilled this season's 15,000 meter program along both the Big Master and Elora Gold trends at the Gold Rock Camp, incorporating the data sets from the D1, D2, and new understanding of the D3 structural faulting trends. Maura highlights the drill results from around the Elora-Jubilee Target, Pearl Target, and Laurentian Mine Target, and the recent results at the drilling done testing the gap areas between those targets. We also discuss the significance of the broader bulk tonnage mineralization that is then being upgraded by the multiple high-grade intercepts along the hanging wall and foot wall trends. We then shifted up to the initial drilling done this year at the Mud Lake target area, and how these same 3 geological deformation faults and folds are present here as well, further northeast along the Gold Rock Camp trend. There are 4 drill holes here awaiting assays to come back from the lab in the near-term. Maura highlights that there is a periodicity to this larger system along the 20kms of strike length, which demonstrate similar geological properties to the Elora Gold Shear Zone, and they'll be following up to exploration work and targeting on more areas of interest in the year to come. Pivoting out to the regional targets, we discussed the 3rd area of focus from this year's program at Hyndman, following up on the detailed mapping from 2024, and the channel sampling program along existing outcrop exposures. Maura outlines where the first drill holes will be drilled at Hyndman in the 2026 season. Next we reviewed the first 3 drill holes put in at the Sherridon regional area, which is hosted within a large geophysical anomaly with a strike length of five kilometers. Testing to date has focused on a small portion of that trend leaving the Sherridon target open in all directions. Additional drill targets for next year will be designed based on this seasons drill results and geological interpretations from expanded mineral assays, geochemistry and re-logging of historic core. Wrapping up Trey discussed the financial health of the company and that when the strong cash position of the company is combined with the recent exercise of in-the-money warrants, that the company is fully funded for exploration initiatives heading into 2026. If you have any questions for Trey or Maura regarding Dryden Gold, then please email them into us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.

Hycroft Mining has undergone one of the most significant turnarounds in the precious metals sector. In this in-depth conversation, Hycroft CEO Diane Garrett sits down with Trey Reik to explain how the company: Wiped out over $200M in inherited debt Rebuilt the technical and operating team behind her past success at Remarco Secured support from major long-only institutional investors, including Eric Sprott, BlackRock, Franklin, and Tribeca And made high-grade silver discoveries that may reveal the deeper feeder zone driving one of the largest precious metals systems in the U.S. With 10 million ounces of gold and almost 400 million ounces of silver in a Tier-1 Nevada jurisdiction, and new drilling suggesting the system may be higher-grade and larger than previously understood, Hycroft is now positioned for a major re-rating.
Ian Wagner interviews Zayn Kalyan of Scorpio Gold (SGN) to discuss the transformative period for the company, which is now focused exclusively on the Manhattan Project in Nevada following the sale of Mineral Ridge and securing strategic financing from investors including Eric Sprott and Ross Beattie. The conversation unpacks the recently released mineral resource estimate (MRE) of 740,000 ounces at 1.26 grams per ton, a grade considered very high when compared to the average Nevada grade of 0.6 grams per ton. Scorpio Gold is pursuing an ambitious target to reach 2 million ounces by the end of next August by drilling a minimum of 50,000 meters over the next 12 months and capitalizing on the district-scale potential of the eight and a half kilometer mineralized structure. Kalyan details that the company is fully financed and ramping up operations, expecting three drills to be running by early November to consistently deliver assay results while also working toward a potential cross-listing to increase exposure in the US market
Interview with Shawn Khunkhun, CEO of Dolly Varden Silver CorporationOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/dolly-varden-silver-tsxvdv-targets-top-10-global-producer-status-7537Recording date: 12th September 2025Dolly Varden Silver Corporation has emerged as a compelling consolidation story in the precious metals sector, delivering exceptional returns while positioning for significant growth in an improving silver market. Under CEO Shawn Khunkhun's leadership since February 2020, the company has systematically transformed from a $20 million market cap explorer into a $550 million silver platform, generating 650% share price appreciation for shareholders.The company's strategic approach centers on consolidating high-grade silver assets in British Columbia's Golden Triangle, accumulating five past-producing mines through methodical acquisitions. Khunkhun's contrarian timing proved prescient, entering the market when $16 silver prices provided minimal exploration incentives for major producers. "We've raised $150 million, and the idea has been, let's create an instrument where investors could get exposure to silver," he explained, describing the systematic vehicle construction.Technical fundamentals support the growth trajectory. The company's assets demonstrate exceptional metallurgy with 88% silver recovery rates, backed by 196,000 meters of drilling and strong community support in a region seeking economic development. A robust $40 million treasury provides flexibility for both organic growth through a 55,000-meter drill program and strategic acquisitions.The institutional investor base reflects confidence in management execution, with 50% institutional ownership including Fidelity, US Global, and Eric Sprott's 10% stake. The April 2025 US listing delivered an immediate 38% share price bump, enhancing access to American capital markets.With only ten primary silver producers globally, Khunkhun sees a clear path to becoming "the 11th" through continued consolidation. Management targets ambitious but achievable goals: $2 billion market cap, 400% share price appreciation, and production status within 18 months. As silver trades at $42 per ounce and generalist investors increase precious metals allocations, Dolly Varden appears positioned to capitalize on both sector rotation and metal price appreciation.Learn more: http://cruxinvestor.com/companies/dolly-varden-silverSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Recording date: 12th September 2025The precious metals mining sector is experiencing a fundamental transformation as institutional capital floods into gold equities and junior exploration companies secure financing levels unseen in over a decade. Olive Resource Capital, reporting their strongest performance since inception, exemplifies the sector's momentum with exceptional returns through traditionally challenging summer months.Junior mining companies now routinely raise $20-30 million compared to historical norms of $3-4 million, enabling drilling programs of 100,000+ meters annually versus previous budgets limited to 5,000 meters. This capital influx positions well-funded exploration companies to potentially transform million-ounce discoveries into tier-one deposits exceeding 5 million ounces, attracting major producer acquisition interest.The Anglo American-Teck merger announcement signals accelerating consolidation activity, with both companies essentially placing themselves in acquisition play. Cash-rich gold producers are shifting from capital discipline messaging toward growth strategies, fundamentally altering the M&A landscape. Companies previously considered acquisition targets, such as IAMGOLD, now possess the balance sheet strength to become buyers themselves, dramatically expanding the potential acquirer pool.Silver sector opportunities are multiplying as $40 silver prices make virtually every global silver company economical, attracting significant investment including backing from Eric Sprott across multiple ventures. The sector benefits from both improved economics and the crypto community's embrace of gold as "natural bitcoin."Institutional participation extends beyond traditional resource funds, with generalist money driving gold equity outperformance versus the underlying commodity. New faces at industry conferences indicate capital sources outside the typical mining investment circle are entering the space.The upcoming Denver Gold Forum will reveal whether major producers formally pivot from capital discipline rhetoric to growth-focused strategies, potentially triggering additional M&A activity as the sector matures into a more sophisticated phase of the current bull market cycle.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Interview with Jeff Swinoga, President & CEO, Exploits Discovery Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/inside-exploits-discoverys-csenfld-new-growth-strategy-4m-cash-680k-oz-gold-3-provinces-7217Recording date: 9th September 2025Exploits Discovery Corp. has completed a remarkable strategic repositioning that transforms the company from a resource-light Newfoundland explorer into a diversified Canadian gold company with substantial assets and compelling valuation metrics. The transformation positions the junior miner to capitalize on the current favorable gold price environment, with gold reaching $3,600 per ounce.The cornerstone of this transformation was the strategic sale of Newfoundland assets to New Found Gold for $7 million in upfront shares plus an additional $1.8 million upon delivery of remaining properties, along with a 1% net smelter return royalty. This transaction created immediate shareholder value while allowing management to focus on higher-potential assets.Most significantly, Exploits Discovery went from zero resources to controlling 680,000 ounces of gold across four high-quality properties in just four months. The flagship Hawkins property in Ontario hosts 300,000 ounces in the McKinnon zone within a 60-kilometer property package near Timmins. The property benefits from established infrastructure and was discovered by Don McKinnon, co-founder of the successful Hemlo gold mine.Complementing the Ontario resource base are three Quebec properties under option from Cartier Resources, offering exceptional high-grade exploration upside. The Fenton property has delivered impressive results including 356 grams per tonne gold over 6 meters, while the Wilson property features similar high-grade chimney-style mineralization.From a valuation perspective, the company presents a compelling opportunity with approximately $10-11 million in treasury value against a current market capitalization of just $9 million, creating an immediate discount to net asset value. Combined with $3.6 million in cash and backing from Eric Sprott's 14% shareholding, the company has substantial financial flexibility to pursue aggressive exploration without near-term dilution pressure.The systematic exploration approach across both jurisdictions, supported by an experienced technical team including property-specific experts, positions Exploits Discovery for multiple value creation catalysts in the favorable gold market environment.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/exploits-discoverySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Under CEO Victor Cantore's leadership, the company has successfully transitioned from pure exploration to a development-stage opportunity with clear pathways to cash flow generation and minimal traditional mining risks.The investment case centers on the world-class Champagne Zone, containing 831,000 ounces of measured and indicated resources grading 16.2 grams per ton. This extraordinary grade represents more than eight times the quality of typical modern gold operations, translating directly into superior project economics with a pre-tax payback period of just 2.5 months. The resource quality eliminates the need for additional definition drilling, allowing management to proceed directly to feasibility study and development.Strategic location advantages differentiate Amex from typical mining developments. Situated 5-6 km from Normétal, Quebec, the project benefits from established hydroelectric power infrastructure, local workforce availability, and proximity to existing mining operations. This eliminates expensive fly-in, fly-out operations and construction of worker accommodation facilities, with local employees able to return home daily. The infrastructure advantages significantly reduce both capital requirements and operational complexity.Management's phased development strategy demonstrates capital discipline while maximizing early cash flow generation. The initial toll milling approach requires only $146 million in upfront capital, avoiding the complexities of mill construction and tailings management facilities. This phase is designed to operate for four years, with generated cash flows self-funding construction of an on-site processing facility by 2031-2032. The toll milling approach also simplifies permitting processes, with feasibility study completion expected within six months rather than typical longer timelines.Market validation comes through significant institutional backing from established mining industry participants. Eldorado Gold has nearly doubled its position from 9% to 17% ownership, while respected resource investor Eric Sprott maintains approximately 10.5%. This institutional support provides both financial resources and strategic validation of the project's technical and economic merits.Beyond immediate production potential, Amex maintains substantial exploration upside. The company has expanded its land package from 45.6 to 197 square kilometers, with current reserves supporting a 17.5-year mine life and strong production scheduled for the decade. All mineralized zones remain open along strike and at depth, providing opportunities for resource expansion and mine life extension.The investment opportunity aligns favorably with current gold market dynamics. With production targeted for 2028, Amex is positioned to enter production during continued strong precious metals pricing driven by monetary policy uncertainty, geopolitical tensions, and central bank purchasing. The combination of rapid payback economics and high-grade ore provides significant downside protection against commodity price volatility.Amex Exploration offers investors exposure to exceptional resource quality, strategic infrastructure advantages, and disciplined development execution. The company's ability to demonstrate industry-leading economics while maintaining exploration upside creates a unique investment profile addressing both near-term production cash flows and long-term growth potential in a supply-constrained gold market.View Amex Exploration's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/amex-explorationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

This investment increases Sprott's ownership from 19% to 23%, officially making him a "control person" following shareholder approval at the company's recent annual general meeting. Combined with the $63 million bought deal completed in May, New Found Gold now has substantial financing to execute its development plans through next year.The company has also strengthened its board with the addition of Tamara Brown, a seasoned mining executive with experience at Superior Gold and Orla Mining, and currently with Oberon Capital. CEO Keith Boyle emphasized Brown's strategic thinking abilities and comprehensive understanding of mining operations, capital markets, and investor relations, describing her diverse background as valuable for advancing the company toward production.Operationally, New Found Gold remains laser-focused on achieving cash flow as quickly as possible from its high-grade deposit. The company is currently conducting resource upgrade drilling, which was temporarily paused due to regional fire risks but has since resumed following recent rainfall. Parallel efforts include advancing permitting activities and baseline environmental work in preparation for submitting their environmental assessment application early next year.The development timeline positions 2025 as the key permitting and financing year, with early construction work planned, leading to full construction beginning in 2027. Management reports strong institutional support for this accelerated development strategy, with over 10% of shares represented at the recent shareholder meeting and positive feedback from both existing and prospective institutional investors.

Interview with Keith Boyle, CEO of New Found GoldRecording date: 13th June, 2025New Found Gold Corporation has undergone significant leadership changes and adopted a development-focused approach under new management. The company appointed Keith Boyle as CEO in January 2025, following a complete board changeover in December 2024. Boyle brings four decades of mining experience and a track record of developing eight previous projects, describing his team as "mine builders."The company's flagship asset spans 110 kilometers in Newfoundland, containing 1.4 million ounces of indicated gold resources and 600,000 ounces of inferred resources. What sets this deposit apart is its exceptional grade distribution, with 75% of ounces concentrated in just 25% of the tonnage. This characteristic enables selective mining approaches that can prioritize high-grade material early in the mine life, supporting rapid cash flow generation.New Found Gold recently secured $63 million through a bought-deal financing led by major shareholder Eric Sprott, who maintained his 19% stake and committed an additional $20 million. This financial backing provides adequate capital to advance through development studies and supports the company's 80/20 capital allocation strategy - directing 80% toward project advancement and 20% toward high-grade exploration targets.The company benefits from strong government support, with Newfoundland targeting five new mines by 2030, and enjoys robust community backing through quarterly stakeholder meetings. Located just 15 kilometers from Gander, the project has access to skilled labor, with 80,000 people living within an hour's drive, many of whom are experienced mining professionals currently working fly-in/fly-out rotations elsewhere.A preliminary economic assessment due by June 2025 will provide the first comprehensive economic evaluation, examining various development scenarios including toll milling arrangements and optimal mine sequencing. The deposit's surface accessibility and visible high-grade zones reduce geological uncertainty, while multiple vein clusters offer flexibility in development approaches. This combination of proven management, high-grade accessible resources, and supportive operating environment positions New Found Gold to capitalize on favorable gold sector dynamics.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/new-found-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

In this company update from TriStar Gold (TSX.V: TSG - OTCQB: TSGZF), President and CEO Nick Appleyard joins me to discuss the company's the closing of a $10 million financing, including a $5 million investment from Eric Sprott - his first position in TriStar. This marks one of the largest financings in company history and signals renewed investor interest in advanced-stage gold developers. Key topics covered: Use of funds from the financing: Launching an upcoming drill program focused on high-grade step-outs at the Esperança South zone of the Castelo de Sonhos Project in Brazil. Advancing toward feasibility: Timeline and permitting strategy for Tristar's goal of completing a full Feasibility Study in 2026, including additional infill drilling and community engagement. Market sentiment shift: Eric Sprott and several new funds participating in the raise reflect growing interest in the developer space as gold prices remain strong and M&A activity picks up. News flow ahead: Drilling is expected to begin by July, with updates throughout the second half of the year. Nick also shares thoughts on how TriStar is scaling its investor relations efforts to increase visibility and attract strategic interest as momentum builds in the gold sector.

Interview with Nick Appleyard, President & CEO of TriStar Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/tristar-gold-tsxvtsg-moving-through-permitting-process-4713Recording date: 30th May 2025Tristar Gold (TSXV: TSG) has emerged as a compelling investment opportunity in Brazil's mining sector following the release of updated project economics and successful resolution of permitting challenges at its Castelo de Sonhos gold project. The company recently completed a $10 million financing round that will fund strategic drilling programs and advance the project toward feasibility study completion.The updated Preliminary Feasibility Study released in May 2025 demonstrates exceptional project economics with a 40% post-tax internal rate of return at $2,200 gold prices. With current gold trading around $3,200 per ounce, management estimates returns could exceed 70%, supported by over $1 billion in pre-tax cash flow generation and $600 million post-tax net present value. The project targets average annual production of 120,000 ounces over 11 years, with higher-grade output of 150,000 ounces during initial years.A significant milestone involved successfully defending the environmental permit against a public prosecutor challenge regarding indigenous consultation. Despite recommendations for suspension, the permit remained valid as multiple parties confirmed no impact on indigenous lands located hundreds of kilometers from the project site. This resolution strengthens Tristar's regulatory position and eliminates a key development risk.The company benefits from exceptional infrastructure advantages, sitting just 15 kilometers from a major highway with existing power lines and road access developed for the regional soybean industry. These factors support a sub-$300 million capital cost estimate while eliminating major infrastructure development requirements.Management has clearly articulated its strategy as a project developer rather than mine builder, actively seeking partnerships with established mining companies over the next 12 months. This approach recognizes that optimal value creation comes through partnering with experienced operators capable of funding and operating the project through production.The recent financing included participation from Eric Sprott, taking approximately 10% of the company, providing third-party validation of the investment opportunity. With permitting resolved and drilling programs commencing, Tristar expects improved news flow to drive valuation re-rating as the company advances toward strategic partnership.View Tristar Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/tristar-gold-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
Glenn Jessome, President and CEO of Silver Tiger Metals (TSX.V:SLVR – OTCQX:SLVTF), joins me to outline the quality of the participants in their recently closed $15 Million bought deal financing, and why this was the right time to the raise capital. We expand the conversation to break down how the funds will be deployed in the ongoing exploration and development work at their 100% owned, silver-gold El Tigre Project in Mexico. The syndicate of underwriters in this Offering was led by Stifel Canada and Desjardins Capital Markets, as co-lead underwriters and joint bookrunners, and BMO Capital Markets, SCP Resource Finance LP, Ventum Financial Corp., and Canaccord Genuity Corp. Eric Sprott also participated as a key strategic shareholder in this financing, with a show of support for the project and business strategy; after having come in during the prior capital raise back in 2020. Glenn discusses that this interest from institutions and key stakeholders came in as a result of meetings and presentations at overseas mining conferences in Switzerland. He mentioned that when considering the backdrop of macroeconomic volatility and uncertainty in the markets, that it really was the right time to execute on this financing. We reviewed how the Project was advanced and how many Company milestones were achieved from the prior capital raised; and how these funds would allow the operations team to hit the ground running with many key lead items and initiatives on the open-pit mine build, just as soon as the permits are received. Wrapping up we focus on the ongoing work programs as they await their open-pit permits. Glenn is lining up and analyzing financial term sheets for the capex needed to build the open-pit mine at El Tigre. Additionally, the company is continuing to drill from underground targeting the high-grade silver veins, and the Sulfide and Shale Zones that will feed into the upcoming PEA on the second phase of underground mining, due out by June of this year. If you have any follow up questions for Glenn about Silver Tiger, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.

Interview with President & CEO, Paul Huet & Eric SprottOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/americas-gold-silver-the-turnaround-team-6588Recording date: 3rd April, 2025Americas Gold & Silver is positioning itself as a compelling turnaround opportunity in the silver mining sector under new leadership. The company operates two primary assets - the Galena mine in Idaho's historic Silver Valley and the Cosala mine in Mexico - with a renewed focus on operational improvements and efficiency.Led by CEO Paul Huet, who brings successful experience from previous turnarounds at Klondex and Karora Resources, the company is implementing a straightforward "mining 101" strategy. This approach focuses on strengthening management, updating equipment, introducing more efficient long-hole mining methods, installing a paste plant, improving shaft capacity, maximizing mill utilization, and recovering valuable byproduct metals.The company faces significant operational inefficiencies that present clear improvement opportunities. At Galena, current mining methods yield only 80-100 tons per blast compared to neighbors' 10,000-ton stopes, while mill utilization is limited to just three days per week. Management has already increased shaft hoisting rates from 42 to 60 tons per hour and targets 110 tons per hour by year-end.A major untapped opportunity involves recovering copper, antimony, and gold currently present in concentrate but not being monetized. By capturing these metals, the company believes it can potentially reduce silver production costs to below $10 per ounce.Financially, Americas Gold & Silver recently raised $50 million and has eliminated approximately $43 million in liabilities. The company is seeking debt financing to fund 24 months of operational improvements without equity dilution. Capital allocation priorities include exploration ($3-5 million per asset), waste development, equipment upgrades ($7 million), a paste plant ($8 million), and shaft improvements ($7 million).Eric Sprott, who owns 20% of the company, maintains a bullish outlook on silver prices. He cites a persistent 200 million ounce annual supply deficit and growing industrial demand. Sprott believes silver could reach $50-200 per ounce from its current $30 level, noting the current gold-to-silver ratio of 90:1 is far from the historical 15:1 ratio or natural mining ratio of 8:1.Despite doubling since September, management considers the stock significantly undervalued at 0.4-0.5 times NAV compared to peer silver producers at 1-1.5 times NAV. With institutional ownership increasing from 8% to 60% in just 75 days and management holding significant positions, Americas Gold & Silver offers investors leverage to rising silver prices while operational improvements potentially drive substantial value creation.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/americas-gold-silver-corporationSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Ian Harris, CEO and President, Outcrop SilverOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/outcrop-silver-tsxvocg-leveraging-high-grade-silver-in-colombia-in-growing-global-demand-5930Recording date: 3rd of March, 2025Outcrop Silver is developing its flagship Santa Ana project in Colombia, positioned as one of the world's highest-grade primary silver projects. With 75% of its value derived from silver and exceptional recovery rates of 96-99% for both silver and gold, the project represents a rare opportunity for investors seeking pure silver exposure.The company has secured significant backing from prominent silver investor Eric Sprott, who holds a 19.9% stake—the maximum allowable before triggering takeover provisions. According to CEO Ian Harris, this makes Outcrop among Sprott's top five investments last year despite the company's relatively small size.For 2025, Outcrop has allocated an ambitious $12 million exploration budget to drill 24,000 meters using two drilling rigs. The company employs a systematic approach to target prioritization, analyzing factors such as grade, thickness, success rate, and strike length to calculate potential ounces and drilling costs. Their goal is to convert targets to resources at approximately 50 cents per ounce, well below their market valuation."The goal is to do it at around 50 cents... basically our cost to convert to resource, and our valuation is much higher than that number," Harris explained. "We are putting in a plan that securely will create more value for less money than we're spending."Harris emphasized the advantages of being a true primary silver project, which creates greater leverage to silver prices. He noted silver's potential for explosive price movements compared to other metals: "If I said do you believe that it's possible that silver could double in price this year, the argument would be yes. Is there a possibility of copper going two times this year? No."The company sees potential for industry consolidation among the small peer group of quality primary silver companies to improve capital access. Harris suggested combining companies with complementary attributes could be beneficial in the current capital-constrained environment.Outcrop operates within a unique silver market characterized by structural supply-demand imbalances. Primary silver mines represent less than 25% of global production, with the majority coming as byproducts from base metal operations. Meanwhile, industrial demand continues growing, with solar panel manufacturing accounting for approximately 25% of consumption.With Colombia's presidential election approaching in 14 months, the company is well-positioned to benefit from potential renewed interest in mining investment while advancing its high-grade project toward resource expansion.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/outcrop-silver-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Shaun Heinrichs, President and CEO of 1911 Gold Corp (TSXV: AUMB) (OTCBB: AUMBF), joins me to introduce this junior exploration Company that is advancing their True North Project, which includes a permitted mine and mill complex located on the Company's 100%-owned Rice Lake Gold property, spanning 61,647 hectares within and adjacent to the Archean Rice Lake greenstone belt in Manitoba, Canada. Shaun outlines how 1911 Gold believes its land package is a prime exploration opportunity, with the potential to develop a mining district centered on expanding resources and eventually moving back into the development of the past-producing True North complex. In addition to the permitted mine, there is a 1300 tpd permitted mill in place, which is expandable to 2250 tpd, which would have access to cheap hydroelectric power, and there is a permitted tailings area. There is an ongoing aggressive exploration program underway at surface for shallow high-grade targets as well as at depth, to keep expanding the known resources of around 1.1 million ounces of gold in all categories. There will be a steady stream of exploration updates over the balance of this year. Additionally, this exploration date will be fed into future resource updates and mining and engineering models as the company works towards a PEA, anticipated by year-end. There is also the exploration upside across the larger land package with idea to provide organically funded regional scale exploration for a hub and spoke approach once the True North mine and mill moves back into production. The company is financially sound, with Eric Sprott, 3 institutional investors, and 2 corporate gold producers all in as strategic shareholders in the company. The treasury is cashed up with around $8 million raised the end of last year, and partners that will help provide access to capital on further financings.

Interview with Andrew Thomson, President & CEO of Palamina Corp.Recording date: 20th December 2024Palamina Corp (TSXV:PA), a Canadian junior mining company, is focused on making significant gold discoveries in Peru's under-explored Puno Orogenic Belt. The company has recently completed a 2,300m drill program at its flagship Usicayos project, where it encountered high-grade gold intercepts of up to 24 g/t.Led by President Andrew Thompson, an entrepreneurial geologist who has successfully sold eight companies including Soltoro Ltd. to Agnico Eagle, Palamina benefits from a highly experienced management team. The company has strategically assembled a large land package comprising seven gold and copper-silver exploration projects in the Puno Belt, an area attracting increasing interest from major mining companies.The company's recent progress includes constructing a new access road to the Usicayos project, which is expected to help reduce drilling costs to $300/m compared to the $600/m average in Nevada. This cost advantage positions Palamina to accelerate its resource definition efforts when drilling resumes in 2025.Beyond its gold assets, Palamina is developing a significant copper-silver portfolio. The company plans to spin these assets into a separate subsidiary to maximize shareholder value. A key asset in this portfolio is the Pluma project, acquired from Aurania Resources in September 2024, which lies along trend from copper-silver deposits being explored by Hannan Metals.The company also holds strategic land positions in the Santa Lucia district, near Aftermath Silver's Berenguela copper-silver project. This district has attracted significant investment from major mining companies and could provide additional value through discovery or strategic partnerships.Palamina's investment case is strengthened by its tight share structure and the backing of prominent resource investor Eric Sprott, who owns 12.3% of the company.

The company is also positioned to benefit from potential copper-silver discoveries by other companies in the district.Operating in Peru, Palamina benefits from the country's supportive stance toward mining and recently streamlined permitting processes.

Despite the current challenging market for junior miners, Palamina's strategic position in an emerging mineral belt, combined with its experienced management and strong financial backing, presents an interesting opportunity for investors seeking exposure to both precious and base metals.

Kerry Lutz hosted a discussion on Eric Sprott's potential to rival tech billionaires like Elon Musk in wealth and influence through his strategic investments in precious metals, particularly gold and silver, which he views as essential stores of value amid economic instability. The conversation highlighted Sprott's successful transition from finance to becoming a multi-billionaire by investing in undervalued mining firms, suggesting that his fortune could grow significantly with an anticipated rise in precious metal prices. The speakers also examined the geopolitical factors affecting the gold market, including inflation, global economic uncertainty, and conflicts, while expressing optimism about silver as a valuable investment.
