Podcasts about executive chairman

This episode of Mining Stock Daily features Brandon Macdonald, the newly appointed Executive Chairman of the "almost forgotten" Tinka Resources. Macdonald details the recently closed, oversubscribed $14 million financing deal which served to recapitalize and reinvigorate Tinka following challenges in the capital markets. The discussion outlines a new strategic direction for the company's Ayawilca project in Peru, emphasizing the need to focus on high-grade "meaningful tons" rather than just increasing overall tonnage, and rethinking the approach away from a maximalist greenfield build. While the flagship Ayawilca project requires substantial desktop work before drilling commences in mid-next year, the immediate work plan focuses on commencing drilling soon at the secondary copper-gold project, Silvia

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

The truth about leadership, business, and becoming who you're meant to be.   What happens when a CEO stops optimizing for the quarter and starts optimizing for people?

Interview with Gerald Panneton, Executive Chairman of Gold Terra Resource Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/gold-terra-resource-tsxvygt-leveraging-rising-gold-prices-with-high-grade-yellowknife-project-6315Recording date: 25th September 2025Gold Terra Resources Corporation (TSXV:YGT) is advancing its Yellowknife gold project in Canada's Northwest Territories, capitalizing on dramatically improved economics driven by gold's rise to $3,750 per ounce. Executive Chairman Gerald Panneton sees significant opportunity to revitalize the historically productive mining district, which was shuttered in 2003 when gold traded at just $340 per ounce.The company has outlined 1.8 million ounces of combined indicated and inferred resources, with a strategic focus on 540,000 near-surface ounces in the Yellorex zone that can be accessed via ramp development within 3-4 years. This approach prioritizes cash flow generation over the more capital-intensive deep underground mining that characterized the original operation.Gold Terra's competitive advantage centers on the Con Mine, a cornerstone asset featuring existing mining lease and surface rights that could reduce permitting timelines from the typical 10-15 years for greenfield projects to approximately one year. "The biggest advantage Gold Terra has with the Con mine as a cornerstone property is that [they have] the mining lease and the surface rights," Panneton explained.Third-party validation came through OR Royalties' $2 million investment to increase their NSR royalty from 1% to 2%, with an option for additional investment to reach 3%. The endorsement followed an in-depth technical review, providing external confirmation of the project's potential.Current gold prices have transformed project economics, enabling potential cutoff grade reductions that could expand the Yellorex zone from 540,000 to 700,000 ounces. Management targets completing a resource update and preliminary economic assessment within 6-12 months, aiming to finalize the Newmont acquisition by 2026.With $3 million in treasury and improved market conditions, Gold Terra enters a critical development phase positioned to leverage both existing infrastructure advantages and gold's structural bull market through disciplined, phased development focused on near-term production potential.View Gold Terra's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/gold-terra-resource-corpSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Greg Martyr, Executive Chairman, Capital MetalsOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/capital-metals-lsecmet-strategic-alliance-advances-worlds-highest-grade-mineral-sands-play-7308Recording date: 22nd September 2025Capital Metals stands poised to make a final investment decision by end-2025 on its Taprobane Minerals project in Sri Lanka, representing what executive chairman Greg Martyr calls "one of the highest grade undeveloped mineral sands projects in the world." The company's exceptional 17.2% grade deposit dramatically exceeds the global average of less than 5%, creating substantial competitive advantages in an otherwise challenging market environment.The project's economics are compelling, requiring only $25 million in initial capital to generate projected annual revenues of $35-40 million against operating costs below $20 million. This translates to a base case net present value of $180 million, creating significant upside potential for a company trading at a market capitalization below £20 million.Capital Metals has secured crucial local partnerships, including a $4 million investment from Ambeon Capital for a 20% stake. The partnership brings legendary cricketer-turned-investment banker Aravinda De Silva to the board, providing essential government relations access in navigating Sri Lanka's regulatory environment.The regulatory landscape has improved markedly following the election of a new anti-corruption government that secured 75% of the vote. "The big picture is that the country is focusing on a mineral source of revenue for foreign direct investment which is what they need," Martyr explains, highlighting the administration's pro-business mining stance.Two critical approvals remain pending: mining license expansion and export rights for heavy mineral concentrate. Management expresses confidence these will be secured by year-end, enabling construction to begin in Q1 2026. The straightforward surface mining operation involves no blasting or chemical processing, with immediate environmental remediation capabilities positioning the project favorably in an ESG-conscious investment climate.With established markets for its four primary commodities—ilmenite, rutile, zircon, and garnet—the project offers investors exposure to a high-margin, environmentally responsible mining operation backed by exceptional resource quality and supportive regulatory momentum.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/capital-metalsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

From his journey growing up in a farm family to building the largest publicly traded farmland REIT, Paul shares powerful lessons on seizing opportunities, balancing vision with habits, and keeping perspective on agriculture's role in solving global challenges.Key TakeawaysHabits Over Long-Term Plans: Success isn't built on rigid 30-year plans, but on daily habits and the courage to seize opportunities when they arrive.Luck and Humility: Luck plays a major role in career success. Recognizing it fosters humility while reminding us not to discount solid “upper middle-class” achievements.Bridging Two Worlds: Paul combined his Wall Street deal-making expertise with deep agricultural roots to pioneer farmland investing through Farmland Partners.Agriculture's North Star: Feeding the world remains the industry's core mission, but the next frontier is improving nutritional quality alongside caloric and protein production.Intentional Leadership: True leadership comes from vision-driven individuals, not committees. Accountability, clarity, and a strong grasp of the other side's priorities are key to effective deals and relationships.Decision-Making Framework: Balance certainty with long-term goals—avoid chasing perfection, but don't settle for the easy path that drifts you off course.Work Ethic and Drive: A deep work ethic, instilled early by family, fuels resilience and the ability to take bold steps—even when that means quitting a “great” job to pursue true alignment.Notable Quotes“You don't set life goals—you set life habits that create the environment for success.” – Paul Pittman“If I need to teach you how to farm, I need a different tenant.” – Paul Pittman“The Sistine Chapel wasn't painted by a committee. It was painted by a guy.” – Paul Pittman“Being wealthy isn't about money. It's about happiness with your life.” – Paul PittmanAction StepsEvaluate your daily habits—are they aligned with the environment you want to create for success?Identify two or three “non-negotiables” in your business and relationships, and respect the same on the other side.Reflect on your career direction—are you drifting off course by taking too many “easy” decisions?Consider how your leadership style encourages accountability, vision, and individual responsibility.Listen If You AreA business or ag leader seeking lessons from someone who bridged Wall Street and farming.Interested in the future of agriculture—feeding the world and improving health.Looking for practical frameworks for negotiation, leadership, and decision-making.Curious about the mindset behind building a company from farmland roots to Wall Street success.

Story #1: American Bitcoin Co-Founder and Chief Strategy Officer, Eric Trump and Executive Chairman and Board Member, Asher Genoot join Will to discuss the launch of American Bitcoin on the NASDAQ. Eric also reflects on his friendship with Charlie Kirk and the threats facing his own family, while Asher explains why Bitcoin is the ultimate store of value and how their company aims to make crypto simple and accessible for everyday Americans. Story #2: Author and Host of "Your Welcome", Michael Malice sits down with Will to examine the deeper crisis in America. From calls for violence to the push for “hate speech” laws, Malice argues we've entered a dangerous phase where debate is collapsing. He explains why some ideas must be retired, why others can't be negotiated in good faith, and why this moment will likely mark a turning point in American history. Story #3: Will closes with a monologue on the limits of free speech, the line between hate speech and incitement, and the role of accountability in culture versus government. He calls out politicians like Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D-IL) and Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) for dangerous rhetoric, and argues that preserving civilization requires truth, responsibility, and a re-commitment to basic decency.

Interview with Arturo Préstamo Elizondo, Executive Chairman & CEO of Santacruz Silver Mining Ltd.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/santacruz-silver-tsxvscz-q1-revenue-hits-70m-as-turnaround-plan-delivers-results-7297Recording date: 11th September 2025Santacruz Silver Mining represents a compelling investment opportunity for investors seeking exposure to a financially disciplined silver producer with strong fundamentals and clear growth catalysts. The company has successfully completed a strategic financial restructuring that positions it as one of the cleanest balance sheet stories in the precious metals sector.The company's financial transformation is remarkable. Santacruz has completely eliminated its acquisition-related debt obligations, paying off the final $15 million of its Glencore asset acquisition ahead of schedule while securing an additional $40 million in savings through an acceleration clause execution. This achievement has resulted in a pristine balance sheet with no streaming agreements, no royalties, and minimal debt beyond a strategically structured $20 million promissory note in Bolivia that carries a negative implied interest rate.Operationally, Santacruz demonstrates impressive resilience and diversification through its portfolio of four producing mines and one ore sourcing company spanning Mexico and Bolivia. The company generates over 7 million ounces of pure silver annually alongside significant zinc credits, with management projecting $90-120 million in annual free cash flow. This operational strength was evidenced when recent flooding at two Bolivian veins was immediately offset by San Lucas trading operations, which sourced replacement ore from third-party miners to maintain full mill capacity utilization.The investment thesis is strengthened by favorable currency dynamics in Bolivia, where 80-85% of operational costs are denominated in Bolivianos. The recent devaluation of the Boliviano creates ongoing cost advantages that directly improve all-in sustained cash costs and enhance profit margins, particularly beneficial in the current rising silver price environment.Santacruz's primary growth catalyst centers on the advanced Soracaya brownfield project, which management characterizes as "advanced organic growth." This asset features existing 43-101 resource reporting and previous development work by Glencore, with full permitting expected within 7-10 months. Once operational, Soracaya will contribute an additional 4 million ounces of annual silver production - representing approximately a 60% increase in output - funded entirely through internal cash generation without equity dilution.The company's resource base offers exceptional longevity and expansion potential. Current reserves and resources provide approximately 12 years of mine life in Bolivia alone, supported by vein systems that allow for both deeper development and strike length extension. Notably, the Porco mine represents the longest continuously producing mine in the Americas with 500 years of non-stop operation, while other assets have maintained production for over 200 years, demonstrating the sustainability of these geological systems.From a valuation perspective, Santacruz appears attractively positioned with an enterprise value approximately six to seven times projected EBITDA of $110-120 million, trading at a discount to many precious metals peers. This valuation gap, combined with the company's strong cash generation capabilities and strategic flexibility for acquisitive growth, presents multiple pathways for value creation.The macro environment further supports the investment case, as silver benefits from dual demand drivers spanning both industrial applications and monetary hedge demand. Industrial consumption continues expanding through renewable energy infrastructure and electronics manufacturing, while supply constraints from primary silver operations create additional price support.For investors seeking exposure to a well-managed silver producer with proven operational capabilities, clean financials, and clear growth visibility, Santacruz Silver offers a compelling risk-adjusted opportunity in the current precious metals landscape.View Santacruz Silver Mining's company mining: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/santacruz-silver-miningSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with William M. Sheriff, MSc – Founder & Executive Chairman, enCore EnergyOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/encore-energy-tsxveu-us-uranium-leader-doubles-production-to-3700-lbsday-in-q2-turnaround-7356Recording date: 4th September 2025enCore Energy has emerged as a standout performer in the uranium sector, delivering remarkable operational improvements that increased daily uranium production by 200-300% while securing significant institutional investment. The company's transformation represents a compelling case study in operational excellence during a period of global uranium supply constraints.Following a strategic leadership overhaul in early 2025, enCore replaced key executives including the CEO and COO, implementing urgent operational improvements that dramatically enhanced production efficiency. The results have been striking: well completion times dropped from seven days to just 1.3 days, while the company expanded its drilling operations from 12-14 rigs to 29, with plans to reach 32 by October 2025.This operational discipline reflects both the rapid recovery characteristics of South Texas uranium deposits and the company's newfound focus on execution. As one of America's only two operational in-situ recovery (ISR) plants, enCore's ability to scale production quickly provides significant competitive advantages in an increasingly supply-constrained market.The company's operational success attracted unprecedented institutional interest, culminating in a $115 million convertible note offering at a 5.5% coupon rate—terms rarely seen in the uranium sector. Unlike typical convertible structures dominated by hedge funds, approximately 45% of this financing came from long-term oriented institutional investors, including funds managing $10-30 billion in assets.This institutional validation extends beyond immediate capital needs, introducing enCore to an entirely new class of generalist investors and creating relationships that could support future strategic initiatives.enCore recently completed acquisition of the Tacubaya project, immediately adjacent to its flagship Alta Mesa operation, adding significant uranium resources while providing critical geological continuity. The company has also enhanced its data analysis capabilities, identifying new productive trends within existing assets by examining thousands of drill holes on a more granular basis.The development pipeline includes a South Dakota project with Fast-41 federal designation, providing timeline certainty for permitting while leveraging enCore's established regulatory track record. The company has identified approximately 20 advanced exploration projects across the US for potential acquisition, positioning itself as a consolidation catalyst in the fragmented uranium sector.With uranium demand surging globally and few new producers successfully reaching commercial production, enCore's combination of proven operations, expanding resource base, and institutional backing creates sustainable competitive advantages in an industry where execution capabilities increasingly differentiate winners from development-stage competitors.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/encore-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Former Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Director Steve Francis dedicated his life to public service from a young age, rising to the pinnacle of US federal law enforcement.On this episode of TRM Talks, Steve joins Ari to reflect on a career defined by protecting the financial system, empowering agents in the field, and building innovative enforcement programs that span borders and sectors.Steve understood early that almost every crime is a financial crime and every investigation is about following the money. During Steve's tenure at HSI, cryptocurrency became a bigger part of that equation. Recognizing its growing role in transnational crime, Steve prioritized crypto-focused training for agents, built a cadre of blockchain intelligence experts, and championed the use of advanced investigative tools to track and disrupt illicit activity on-chain. That commitment to leveraging technology gave HSI new capabilities to keep pace with rapidly evolving threats.From uncovering Saddam-era money laundering in Iraq to leading operations against counterfeit PPE during the pandemic, Steve's leadership combined operational experience with strategic foresight. Now as Executive Chairman of IP House, he is applying that mission mindset to the private sector, building a 550-person global intelligence and enforcement network in just over a year.The conversation explores lessons in humble, high-impact leadership, the central role of crypto and cyber in modern investigations, how cross-agency collaboration has driven landmark cases, and the future of public-private partnerships. Whether you work in government, tech, or compliance, this is a masterclass in innovation, leadership, and mission-driven work.

As we take a brief hiatus from releasing new episodes this week, we thought it would be interesting to revisit this episode from December 2024 with Michael Saylor. Ahead of the Trump administration officially taking office, Michael explained why he thought the year ahead would be a seminal one in the history of Bitcoin. Was he correct? You be the judge. Summary: With a new, crypto-friendly administration incoming, 2025 may be the year we see Bitcoin integrate more fully into mainstream finance in America and globally. Though volatile, and with an uncertain future that will heavily depend on how macroeconomic conditions and regulatory policies play out across the year, there's reason to believe that Bitcoin could soon be more prominent than ever. Today's guest is here to tell us why.Michael Saylor is the Executive Chairman and co-founder of business intelligence company MicroStrategy (Nasdaq: MSTR), and a leading advocate of Bitcoin. MicroStrategy considers itself to be the world's first Bitcoin Company, and under Michael's leadership have adopted a unique Bitcoin acquisition strategy with approximately $42 billion in Bitcoin held to date. In this episode, Michael describes his journey from skeptic to Bitcoin maximalist, emphasizes the importance of understanding Bitcoin as a digital capital asset, and discusses its potential to disrupt traditional valuation methodologies in finance.Highlights:Michael recommends resources for Bitcoin beginners (2:37)Why fear of progress holds us back (3:55)Michael points out the clues suggesting Bitcoin is here to stay (7:11)What USD maximalists get wrong (13:15)How we can understand the potential of Bitcoin through an engineering lens (16:25)Why valuation methodologies need to adapt to include Bitcoin (18:48)How Bitcoin outperforms traditional investments (28:09)Why supportive regulatory environment is crucial for Bitcoin's growth (30:54)Michael explains why the current capital market structure favors a select few (34:59)Why sound money is critical for societal progress (39:00)Links:Michael Saylor LinkedInMicroStrategy WebsiteBook: The Bitcoin Standard by Saifedean AmmousICR LinkedInICR TwitterICR WebsiteFeedback:If you have questions about the show, or have a topic in mind you'd like discussed in future episodes, email our producer, joe@lowerstreet.co.

Welcome to this classic episode. Classics are my favorite episodes from the past 10 years, published once a month. These are N of 1 conversations with N of 1 people. Brad Jacob's simple principle of "think big, move fast" is one I think about often. Brad's resumé is remarkable. He has founded seven companies, all of which are billion-dollar or multibillion-dollar businesses. He has done 500 M&A transactions and raised $30 billion of debt and equity capital. Currently, he is the Executive Chairman of XPO, a commercial trucking company that he started in 2011 and has grown into one of the largest logistics businesses in the world. He is a true force of nature, and I hope you enjoy his episode.
