These include strategic partnerships with neighboring operators, infrastructure sharing agreements, independent development scenarios, or potential acquisition by major mining companies seeking domestic critical mineral exposure.With approximately $15 million invested against a current market capitalization of C$63 million, Stillwater represents compelling value creation potential. The combination of substantial resources, institutional backing, policy support, and proven management positions the company to capitalize on America's critical mineral security imperative while delivering significant investor returns through systematic project advancement and strategic value realization.View Stillwater Critical Minerals' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/stillwater-critical-mineralsSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Surge Battery Metals CEO Greg Reimer joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the release of the 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment for the company's flagship Nevada North Lithium Project —a major milestone that confirms the project's strong economic potential as a scalable, long-life, and low-cost lithium operation. The PEA outlines a compelling development scenario for a conventional open-pit mine paired with dry-stack tailings and on-site sulfuric acid leach processing to produce battery-grade lithium carbonate equivalent. The proposed operation leverages Nevada's mining-friendly jurisdiction and infrastructure, setting the stage for North American-based supply of critical battery materials. Reimer detailed that the project is structured around a 42-year mine life, with production split into two major phases. In Phase 1, the mine will process 2.58 million tonnes per annum (Mtpa) of ore. Phase 2, which kicks off in Year 4, will double processing throughput to 5.15 Mtpa, supporting significant increases in production volumes. The operational strategy prioritizes the shallowest and highest-grade lithium zones, ensuring early cash flow and optimal economics. As a result, production of battery-grade LCE peaks at 109,100 tonnes in Year 6, with an average of 86,300 tonnes/year over the life of mine. In total, the project is projected to deliver 3.63 million tonnes of LCE at a recovery rate of 82.8%. One of the most notable figures in the report is the net present value (NPV) of the project: US$9.21 billion, based on the latest assay results received in January. The project's internal rate of return (IRR) and capital efficiency metrics are expected to be detailed in subsequent reports, but the current valuation already positions NNLP among the most promising lithium development assets in North America. Looking ahead, Reimer emphasized that Surge Battery Metals is committed to rapidly advancing and de-risking the NNLP through upcoming Pre-Feasibility and Feasibility studies. The company will focus on refining process efficiencies, optimizing mine design, and engaging with potential strategic partners to support future development and financing. #proactiveinvestors #surgebatterymetals #tsxv #nili #otcqb #otcqx #nilif #Lithium #NevadaNorth #Mining #CriticalMinerals #BatteryMetals #LithiumInvesting #MiningNews #ProactiveInvestors #ResourceEstimates #MiningPEA #GregReimer #EVMetals #CleanEnergy

Michael Rowley, President and CEO of Stillwater Critical Minerals (TSX.V: PGE – OTCQB: PGEZF), joins me to review the recent news from last week's Executive Order on critical minerals from the white house putting their flagship Stillwater West Ni-PGE-Cu-Co + Au project in Montana into focus for domestic development.   This Executive Order signed by United States President Donald J. Trump on March 20, 2025, titled "Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production," invokes emergency powers to prioritize and accelerate domestic production of minerals listed as critical to the United States, with the objective of reducing reliance on imports. This Executive Order is the government's strongest action yet towards restoring America's domestic mining industry and is intended to counter the overwhelming control that other countries have over the supply of a number of minerals listed as critical to the economic and national security interests of the United States.  The order describes funding initiatives for domestic mining projects and calls for accelerated permitting and clarifications to the Mining Act, among other actions.   Mike outlines that their Stillwater West Project is a very large polymetallic resource with a substantial copper inventory and the largest nickel project in an active U.S. mining district, in addition to palladium, platinum, rhodium, chromium, cobalt, and gold plus as yet unquantified amounts of ruthenium and iridium. Overall, Stillwater West is uniquely positioned to become a primary source of nine commodities now listed as critical given our location immediately adjacent to Sibanye-Stillwater's operating mine complex in a historic American mining district where the production of critical minerals dates back to the 1880s.   With regards to this year's exploration focus, Mike shares that multiple large-scale magmatic sulphide targets generated from a property-wide MobileMTm magneto-telluric ("MMT") geophysical survey were completed in late 2024 by Expert Geophysics Limited at Stillwater West. Data from the 2024 MMT survey was processed and incorporated into the Company's 3D geological model of the lower Stillwater Igneous Complex to prioritize targets with a focus on expanding current mid-grade and high-grade mineral resources.  There will be about 6,000 meters of drilling this year focused on those higher-grade targets, with plans to still update the resources from last year's drilling in 2025, and then further update the resource again with 2025's drilling and move towards a Preliminary Economic Assessment in early 2026.     If you have any questions for Mike regarding Stillwater Critical Minerals, then please email me at  Shad@kereport.com.     Click here to follow the latest news from Stillwater Critical Minerals

Northisle Copper and Gold CEO Sam Lee joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the results of a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment for the company's North Island Project, highlighting strong economics from a two-phase development approach. The 2025 PEA outlines the staged development of the Northwest Expo and Red Dog deposits, followed by the Hushamu deposit alongside a plant expansion. Lee explained that the PEA considers processing 753 million tonnes of mineable material from three open-pit deposits over a 29-year mine life. Phase 1 targets a throughput of 40,000 tonnes per day, requiring an initial capital expenditure of approximately $1.1 billion. During this phase, production will include gold doré and gold-rich copper concentrate, with a rapid payback period of just 1.9 years and operating cash flows of approximately $400 million annually—enabling self-funding for Phase 2 construction beginning in year five. In Phase 2, the company plans to twin the mill, doubling throughput to 80,000 tpd by year six. This phase will focus on producing copper concentrate containing significant payable gold, additional gold doré, and molybdenum concentrate. The phased approach is designed to maximize cash flow and enhance long-term project viability. Looking beyond the PEA, Northisle sees significant exploration upside across its property. The company is fully funded for its 2025 exploration program, with a budget of $7 million focused on the Northwest Corridor. Exploration efforts will include testing for the causative intrusion at Northwest Expo, expanding the footprint of West Goodspeed both along strike and through fault offsets, and infill drilling to improve resource continuity. The discoveries within the Northwest Corridor have already contributed to improving overall resource grade and margin, with near-surface mineralization presenting an opportunity to further enhance the project's economics. #proactiveinvestors #northislecopperandgoldinc #tsxv #ncx #mining #CopperGoldMining #MiningNews #PEA #BritishColumbia #GoldInvesting #CopperProjects #SamLee #ProactiveInvestors #ResourceExploration

First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share updates on the company's Bégin-Lamarche Phosphate Project in Quebec. The company has filed its Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) Technical Report, outlining the potential for open-pit mining to produce phosphate concentrate and recover magnetite as a secondary product. The PEA projects an annual average production of 900,000 tonnes of beneficiated phosphate concentrate with 40% P₂O₅ content and 380,000 tonnes of magnetite with 92% Fe₂O₃ content. The mine is expected to operate for 23 years and deliver strong economic results, including a pre-tax internal rate of return (IRR) of 37.1% and a pre-tax net present value (NPV) of $2.1 billion at an 8% discount rate. These projections are based on a three-year trailing average phosphate price, with a premium for purity and supply security, and a two-year trailing average magnetite price with a similar premium. The project is also expected to generate $700 million in after-tax cash flow during the first three years of operation, with a payback period of 2.9 years post-production. Pre-tax cash flow for the same period is estimated at $783 million, with a 2.6-year payback period. Additionally, the project has no outstanding royalties or financing streams, simplifying its path to profitability. Passalacqua stated that the PEA demonstrates the strong economic viability of the project, highlighting its potential to meet global demand for high-purity phosphate and magnetite.

Brad Rourke, President and CEO of Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT – OTCQB:SCTSF), joins us to review the recent assay results at the Blueberry Contact Zone and around the Scottie Gold Mine area, from this year's 10,000 meter drill program located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia.  We also discuss the larger Company strategy of consolidating much of the prior drilling to date along with this year's drilling all building towards a Maiden Resource Estimate that is targeted to be out by the end of Q1.   We start off noting that the Blueberry Contact drillhole SR24-355 intersected 59.2 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 2.50 meters (m) at the Fifi vein zone. Then Blueberry Contact drillhole SR24-356 intersected 35.2 g/t gold over 2.00 m at the Lemoffe vein zone, and 2.27 g/t gold over 8.60 m at the at the Fifi vein zone.   These high-grade gold intercepts over mineable widths helped fill in remaining gaps in mineralized data and will support the calculation of Scottie's maiden resource estimate for the Scottie Gold Mine Project.   Next we discussed more recent drill intercepts from Scottie Gold Mine area, where drillhole SR24-345 intersected 20.2 (g/t) gold over 2.60  (m) at the O Zone, and where drillhole SR24-339 intersected 9.50 g/t gold over 3.00 m at the M Zone, and 4.50 g/t gold over 4.00 m at the N Zone, including 16.7 g/t gold over 1.00 m.  These O Zone, M Zone, and N Zone results will also factor into the upcoming Maiden Resource Estimate.   Brad points out that they anticipate around a million ounces of gold in their first resource estimate, but that there are still results from multiple veins and around the Blueberry Contact Zone and the Scottie Gold Mine area, along with the C and D Veins, the Golden Buckle Zone, and the Domino area that are not going to be included in the resource, because they still need more drilling density.  This means there is definite upside to the mineralized inventory beyond what will show up in the first pass resource report, and those growing areas will be the focus of future drill programs.  The strategy is simply to get out a study on the lowest hanging fruit for the resources thus far, and then wrap some earlier stage economics around the project with a Preliminary Economic Assessment later in the year.   If you have any questions for Brad regarding Scottie Resources, then please email them in to us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Scottie Resources at the time of this recording.   Click here to follow the latest news from Scottie Resources

Interview with Bradley Langille, President & CEO of GoGold Resources Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/gogold-resources-tsxggd-advancing-district-scale-silver-production-3931Recording date: 17th December 2024GoGold Resources, a Canadian silver and gold mining company, is strategically positioned to expand its operations in Mexico under the country's new pro-mining political environment. With President Claudia Sheinbaum's election in 2024 and her anticipated support for mining development, including open pit mines, the company sees significant growth opportunities ahead.The company operates the Parral tailings project, an environmental remediation initiative that reprocesses historical mine waste. Following the implementation of a new zinc recovery circuit, the project now generates monthly free cash flow of US$1.5 million. The project's innovative agglomeration heap leaching technology has caught the attention of Mexican mining authorities, potentially opening doors for future opportunities.GoGold's growth strategy centers on developing two mines at its Los Ricos property. The Los Ricos South project, currently completing its Definitive Feasibility Study, is expected to produce 8 million ounces of silver equivalent annually at an all-in sustaining cost of $12 per ounce. With a capital cost estimate of just over $200 million and an after-tax net present value of $350 million, the underground mine is poised for development. The company, holding $72 million in cash and access to debt financing, plans to break ground in Q1 2025.The second development project, Los Ricos North, shows potential for another 8 million ounces of annual production from an open pit operation, according to its Preliminary Economic Assessment. If both projects are developed as planned, GoGold's total production could reach 16 million ounces annually, elevating it to mid-tier producer status alongside companies like First Majestic Silver and Hecla Mining.Adding to its growth potential, GoGold is conducting exploration drilling 300 meters below the Los Ricos South deposit, where historical records suggest high-grade silver mineralization. The company is investing $3 million in this program, planning approximately 20,000 meters of drilling.CEO Bradley Langille emphasizes the company's strong position, noting that Sheinbaum's administration understands the importance of a strong mining sector to support Mexico's environmental and social initiatives. With a solid balance sheet, near-term production growth prospects, and exploration upside, GoGold appears well-positioned to capitalize on Mexico's improving mining environment and contribute to the country's mineral development while maintaining environmental and social responsibilities.View GoGold Resources' profile page: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/gogold-resourcesSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Sam Lee, President & CEO of NorthIsle Copper & Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/northisle-copper-gold-tsxvncx-strategic-phasing-reduces-capital-requirement-6133Recording date: 11th December 2024NorthIsle Copper & Gold (TSX-V: NCX) is advancing one of British Columbia's largest copper-gold porphyry deposits not currently owned by a major mining company. The company is implementing a strategic phased development approach at its North Island Project, focusing initially on higher-margin resources to optimize project economics.The company recently secured a significant $10 million financing from two major institutional investors - one from the US and one from Canada - demonstrating strong market confidence in the project. These funds will support ongoing exploration and development activities throughout 2025.The initial development phase targets the Northwest Expo and Red Dog zones, which contain approximately 70-100 million tonnes grading 0.50-0.55% copper-equivalent, with a notably higher gold component. This strategic focus on higher-grade mineralization aims to enhance early-stage project economics while reducing initial capital requirements.CEO Sam Lee has outlined the company's transition from its earlier development concept. The previous 2021 PEA envisioned a larger operation with $1.1 billion NPV and $1.4 billion capex, producing approximately 100 million pounds of copper and 100,000 ounces of gold annually. The new approach aims for a more manageable 40,000 tonnes per day operation, compared to the original 70,000-80,000 tonnes per day plan, with increased gold production in the early phase.The project benefits from its location in British Columbia, historically recognized as Canada's copper mining hub. The site leverages over $100 million in existing infrastructure, including paved roads, a deep-water port, and hydroelectric power, significantly reducing development risks and capital requirements.A key upcoming catalyst is the updated Preliminary Economic Assessment, scheduled for Q1 2025. This study will incorporate recent exploration successes and demonstrate the economic advantages of the phased development approach.The investment thesis is supported by strong macro fundamentals, particularly the growing copper demand driven by global electrification and decarbonization initiatives. With few large-scale copper projects available in stable jurisdictions, NorthIsle is well-positioned to benefit from these market dynamics.The company's strategy follows the successful model implemented by Artemis Gold at their Blackwater project, focusing on a phased approach to reduce initial capital requirements while maximizing returns. This approach, combined with strong institutional backing and significant infrastructure advantages, positions NorthIsle to potentially deliver substantial value as it advances toward development.The updated PEA in early 2025 is expected to be a significant milestone in quantifying the economic benefits of this revised development strategy.View NorthIsle Copper & Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/northisle-copper-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Brad Rourke, President and CEO of Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT – OTCQB:SCTSF), joins us to review the assay results from a new multipurpose exploration drill hole that encountered  a new zone and more high-grade gold mineralization across multiple zones at the Scottie Gold Mine area. These exploration results are from this year's 10,000 meter drill program located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia.  We also discuss the larger Company strategy of consolidating much of the prior drilling date along with this year's drilling to build towards a Maiden Resource Estimate and the derisking work leading to an eventual Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).    These new assays released today related to a single drill hole SR24-353; drilled from the south of the mine, testing new concepts and targeting areas inaccessible to previously drilled orientations. The hole resulted in the discovery of the new Wolf Zone, boasting an intercept of 6.85 g/t gold over 5.85 metres, and a strong N Zone intercept of 37.6 g/t gold over 4.1 metres. The particular hole was very long and meant to test the potential for parallel vein zones south of the historic mine, to test lower parts of the L and N Zone's, as well as testing for the continuation of the M Zone beneath the Morris Lake Fault. The orientation of the drill hole was unique, and as such it had the opportunity to test hundreds of meters of rock that hadn't been drilled before. The intersection of the new Wolf Zone opens up a new high-grade drill target in close proximity to the Scottie Gold Mine.  This hole #353 also highlights the very high-grade N Zone intercept, and  is complementary to many other holes and new intercepts from this year that will help bolster the upcoming resource estimate at the Scottie Gold Mine.   We discuss how all of the recent and historic drilling is now pulling together at both the Scottie Mine area and Blueberry area as the company builds toward the Maiden Resource Estimate next year.  Brad points out that while they anticipate around a million ounces of gold in their first resource estimate, that there are areas like the P Zone O Zone and  other veins around the Scottie Gold Mine, along with the C and D Veins, the Golden Buckle Zone, and the Domino area that are not going to be included in the resource and still need more drilling.  This means there is definite upside to the mineralized inventory beyond what will show up in the first pass resource report will be the focus of future drill programs.  The strategy is simply to get out a study on the lowest hanging fruit for the resources thus far, and then wrap some earlier stage economics around the project with a Preliminary Economic Assessment later next year.      If you have any questions for Brad regarding Scottie Resources, then please email them in to us at Fleck@kereport.com or Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Scottie Resources at the time of this recording.   Click here to visit the Scottie Resources website and read over all the news.

Brad Rourke, President and CEO of Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT – OTCQB:SCTSF), joins me to review the next batch of high-grade gold drillhole assays released today from the M Zone, N Zone, and O Zone around the Scottie Gold Mine area from this year's 10,000 meter drill program located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia.  We also discuss the larger Company strategy of consolidating all the prior drilling date along with this year's drilling to build towards a Maiden Resource Estimate and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).    Highlights:   SGM – drillhole SR24-330 intersected 8.30 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 9.70 meters (m) including 10.30 g/t gold over 6.01 m in the N Zone and intersected 7.52 g/t gold over 6.47 m at the O Zone SGM – drillhole SR24-332 intersected 10.9 g/t gold over 4.20 m in a wider zone of 6.19 g/t gold over 8.70 m at the O Zone M Zone SGM drillhole SR24-327 intersected 26.1 g/t Au over 2.00 m The Scottie Gold Mine Project's MRE planned for late Q1 2025 will be a combination of the historic Scottie Gold Mine deposit and the newly discovered Blueberry Contact Zone   Brad points out that while they anticipate around a million ounces of gold in their first resource estimate, that there are areas like the P Zone L Zone and more around the Scottie Gold Mine, and the C and D Veins, the Golden Bucket Zone, and the Domino area that are not going to be included in the resource, so there is definite upside to the mineralized inventory beyond what will show up in the first pass report.  The strategy is just to get out the lowest hanging fruit for the resources thus far, and then wrap some earlier stage economics around the project with a Preliminary Economic Assessment later next year. We talk about other expansion areas and even untested targets that the exploration team will want to pursue moving forward with next year's drill program.   Wrapping up I have Brad outline the rationale behind the share consolidation on a 6:1 basis that was announced on November 20th, to attract a wider roster of high-net-worth investors and funds that need a tighter share-structure.  Then there are other value drivers the company is moving forward with in tandem like a technical study to outline permitting requirements, viability and timeline for potential mining of the historic Scottie Mine tailing piles, and initiating technical and market studies for the direct ship ore (DSO) sales and tolling through the Stewart export terminal for Asian markets.   If you have any questions for Brad regarding Scottie Resources, then please email them in to me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Scottie Resources at the time of this recording.   Click here to visit the Scottie Resources website and read over all the news.

Interview with Sam Lee, President & CEO of NorthIsle Copper & Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/northisle-copper-gold-tsxvncx-high-grade-expansion-drilling-in-major-copper-gold-porphyry-5445Recording date: 28th October 2024NorthIsle Copper & Gold (TSXV:NCX) is advancing a district-scale gold-copper project in British Columbia through a strategically phased development approach that prioritizes higher-margin zones while maintaining significant expansion potential.The company controls a 35-kilometer mineralized trend containing indicated resources of 7 million ounces of gold and 3.5 billion pounds of copper. Rather than pursuing immediate large-scale development, NorthIsle is following the successful model demonstrated by Artemis Gold's Blackwater project, focusing initially on higher-grade areas to reduce capital requirements and enhance project economics.The first phase of development will center on the Northwest Expo and Red Dog deposits, which contain rock with an average NSR value of $45 per tonne against a cutoff of $11.50, indicating robust margins. The company is evaluating throughput scenarios between 20,000 and 40,000 tonnes per day for this initial phase, with results to be detailed in a Preliminary Economic Assessment due in early Q1 2025.A key differentiator for NorthIsle is the project's significant gold content, representing approximately 44% of the resource value. As CEO Sam Lee notes, "Gold is the most critical currency out there right now. You could fund big projects with very low cost capital because gold acts like a currency, not a commodity." This gold component provides financing flexibility and potential funding options for future copper development.Recent exploration success at the West Goodspeed zone has extended mineralization to a one-kilometer strike length, with results suggesting potential connectivity to the Red Dog deposit. This could create a seven-kilometer mineralized trend, significantly enhancing the project's scale and economics.The project benefits from extensive existing infrastructure, including roads, power, and port facilities, representing hundreds of millions in prior government investment. This significantly reduces capital requirements and development timelines.Beyond the near-term development focus, NorthIsle's Pemberton Hills target represents a deeper porphyry opportunity characterized by a 6.5km by 1.5km lithic cap. The company is in discussions with potential partners to advance this exploration target while maintaining focus on their primary development priorities.Near-term catalysts include PEA delivery in Q1 2025, ongoing exploration results from West Goodspeed, potential partnership announcements for Pemberton Hills and additional drilling results from Northwest Expo. The company's phased development strategy addresses key investor concerns about capital risk in mining development while maintaining exposure to both gold and copper upside. The location in British Columbia, a stable mining jurisdiction, adds another positive dimension to the investment thesis.With the company currently valued at approximately C$120 million market capitalization, successful execution of the phased development strategy could provide significant re-rating potential, following the path of similar projects like Blackwater which saw substantial value appreciation through development.View NorthIsle Copper & Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/northisle-copper-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Hugh Agro, President & CEO of Revival Gold Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/revival-gold-tsxvrvg-us-acquisition-more-than-doubles-production-target-5215Recording date: 10th September 2024Revival Gold (TSXV:RVG) presents a compelling investment opportunity in the gold mining sector, advancing two significant projects in mining-friendly jurisdictions of the Western United States. With a combined resource base of 6.2 million ounces of gold and a clear path towards production, the company offers investors exposure to a growing gold development story with substantial exploration upside.The company's flagship Beartrack-Arnett project in Idaho benefits from existing infrastructure and a history of past production, significantly de-risking the project and reducing capital requirements. The current plan envisions an open-pit, heap leach operation producing approximately 63,000 ounces of gold annually over an 8-year mine life. With a modest initial capital requirement of just over $100 million and strong economics (24% after-tax return at $1,800 gold), Beartrack-Arnett offers a quick path to production with significant exploration potential.Revival Gold recently acquired the Mercur project in Utah for $22 million, a strategic move to diversify its portfolio and accelerate its path to production. Mercur brings several key advantages, including simplified permitting due to its location on private land, additional heap leach potential, and proximity to infrastructure. The acquisition increases Revival's targeted production to over 150,000 ounces per year from both projects combined.Key near-term catalysts include a Preliminary Economic Assessment for Mercur expected by the end of Q1 2025, ongoing permitting preparations for Beartrack-Arnett, and continued exploration at both projects. The company estimates that permitting for Mercur could be completed in about three years, with potential to improve on this timeline.The current gold mining industry dynamics, characterized by rising gold prices and increasing scarcity of quality deposits, position Revival Gold favorably. Major producers are actively seeking to replenish reserves, leading to increased M&A activity in the sector. This trend underscores the value of Revival Gold's projects and positions the company as a potential acquisition target.Financially, Revival Gold recently restructured its obligations related to Beartrack-Arnett, converting $27 million cash payment into 0.3% Net Smelter Return royalty. This move significantly reduces the near-term capital burden and aligns payment with future production. Despite its significant resource base and advancing development plans, Revival Gold currently trades at a conservative valuation of approximately $7 per ounce of gold in the ground. With a market capitalization of around $50 million, there appears to be significant upside potential as the company achieves key development milestones. The company is actively engaged in discussions with potential strategic and financial partners to fund project advancement.Investors should consider Revival Gold for its large resource base, advanced-stage projects in excellent jurisdictions, clear path to production, and exploration upside. The experienced management team, potential for corporate transactions, and conservative current valuation add to the investment appeal. However, as with all mining investments, risks remain, including potential delays in permitting or development, fluctuations in gold prices, and the need for additional capital.As Revival Gold continues to advance its projects and achieve key milestones, it offers investors an opportunity to gain exposure to a growing gold development story with the potential for significant value appreciation in a favorable macro environment for gold.View Revival Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/revival-gold-incSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Andrew Pollard, President and CEO of Blackrock Silver (TSX.V:BRC – OTCQX:BKRRF), joins us to unpack the positive Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) at its 100% controlled Tonopah West Project, located along the Walker Lane trend, in one of the largest historic silver districts in North America, located on private land in Nye and Esmeralda counties, Nevada; approximately 1 kilometer (km) northwest of Tonopah.   At the base case gold price of $1,900 per ounce and silver price of $23 per ounce, the Project commands an after-tax net present value ("NPV") discounted at 5% of $326-million on a low initial capex of $178-million (including $22-million contingency) with a payback of 2.3 years and an after-tax internal rate of return ("IRR") of 39.2% At a gold price of $2,280 per ounce and a silver price of $27.60 per ounce (base case +20%), the economic profile of the Project escalates to an after-tax NPV 5% of $495-million and an after-tax IRR of 54.0%. All-in Sustaining Costs ("AISC") of $11.96 per silver equivalent ounce basis. Over the approximately 8-year life of mine ("LOM"), production from the mining and processing of approximately 4.1 million diluted tonnes of material containing 75.4 million silver equivalent ("AgEq") ounces (silver/gold ratio of 90/1) which equates to 66.8 payable AgEq ounces.  Recoveries of 96.1% for gold and 88.9% for silver from a 3-stage crushing circuit and processing plant.   We discuss that the updated resource estimate at Tonopah West contains a total of 57,000 ounces of gold and 48.5 million ounces of silver, for a total of 100.04Mozs of silver equivalent. However, some of those resources, including the near 12million ounces of AgEq from the Northwest Step Out deposit, were excluded in this PEA.  The Company is working on de-risking an initial 3 years of production and bridging a 1km mineralized strike potential to the NW step-out zone that could bring additional ounces on and into the mine development plan in future economic studies. 3 drills are at site currently engaged in an ongoing 20,000 meter resource expansion and conversion program aimed at further growing the project.   We also discussion the various project derisking that their team is doing in the background like metallurgical testing and process flowsheet, hydrology studies, environmental studies, permitting, site infrastructure and the potential placement of a decline and processing mill, all in tandem with the exploration strategy.   The Company just raised $10Million in May, bringing in a larger stake from Eric Sprott, and so it is cashed up to do this large drill program and future derisking work.   If you have any follow up questions for Andrew regarding Blackrock Silver, then please email us at Fleck@kereport.com or  Shad@kereport.com.   For full disclosure, Shad is shareholder of Blackrock Silver at the time of this recording.   Click here to visit the Blackrock Silver website to read over the recent news we discussed.

First Phosphate Corp CEO John Passalacqua Chief Geologist Gilles Laverdiere joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce that all results from the drilling program at its Bégin-Lamarche project are now available. The 99-hole drill program, totaling 25,929 meters, has uncovered a significant high-quality igneous phosphate deposit. The drilling has shown continuous phosphate mineralization over a length of 2,400 meters, spread across three mineralized zones. Laverdiere explained that a NI 43-101 resource estimate is currently underway and will be immediately followed by a Preliminary Economic Assessment. A total of 23 drill holes were completed in the Mountain Zone, totaling 5,023 meters. The Mountain Zone exhibits grades of more than 10% P2O5 over widths ranging from 7 meters to 99 meters. In the Southern Zone, drilling was conducted at 100-meter spaced sections over a length of 1,700 meters, with 57 drill holes totaling 15,219 meters. Passalacqua says the company anticipates having the resource estimate completed in the coming months, marking a significant milestone in the project's development. #proactiveinvestors #firstphosphatecorp #phosphate #BéginLamarcheproject #CEOInterview #CompanyUpdate #StrategicGrowth #SustainableMining #GreenApproach #FirstPhosphateCorp, #Mining, #DrillingProject, #Phosphate, #Quebec, #ResourceEstimate, #Geology, #MiningIndustry, #MineralExploration, #SustainableMining, #IndustrialBase, #SaguenayPort, #RioTinto, #CathodeMaterials, #EconomicAssessment, #MiningTechnology, #PhosphateMining, #CanadianMining, #ResourceDevelopment, #MiningSuccess #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

Nevada Lithium CEO Stephen Rentschler joined Steve Darling from Proactive to announce the commencement of the company's 2024 Drill Program at the Bonnie Claire lithium project in Nevada. This year's program has already seen the completion of one deep core hole and the initiation of a second, focusing on the deep high-grade lithium and boron mineralization identified in the 2023 drill campaign. Rentschler explained that Hole BC2401C, a 450-metre step-out hole, aims to test the extent of mineralization beyond the previously drilled boundaries. Meanwhile, Hole BC2402C, an infill hole, is designed to examine the continuity of mineralization between existing holes BC 2301C and BC 2303C. The primary goals of the 2024 Drill Program are to confirm the continuity of deep, high-grade lithium-boron mineralization, explore the mineralization to the northeast of the current resource zone, and increase confidence in grade continuity between existing drill holes. Success in these areas could result in an upgrade of the resource classification from Inferred to Indicated or Measured. The updated mineral resource estimation is a key component of the ongoing efforts towards an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment, which the company expects to complete by the Fall of 2024. This work is critical in advancing the Bonnie Claire project and providing valuable data to support its economic potential. #proactiveinvestors #nevadalithiumresourcesinc #cse #nvlh #otc #nvlhf #lithium #mining #BonnieClareProject #LithiumMining #Boron #DrillingProgramme #ElectricVehicles #BatteryStorage #ResourceUpdate #MineralExploration #MiningIndustry #USPolitics #EVDemand #LithiumPrices #BatteryDemand #ResourceAssessment #SustainableEnergy #MiningProjects #Fall2024 #EnergyStorage #NaturalResources #MarketOutlook #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

George Ogilvie, President and CEO of Arizona Sonoran Copper (TSX:ASCU – OTCQX:ASCUF), joins me outline the updated resources at the Cactus Project in Arizona, that contains over 11 billion pounds (“lbs”)  of copper in all categories – 7.3 billion lbs of copper in measured and indicated, and 3.8 billion lbs in the inferred category.   We start off discussing the key metrics and takeaways from this updated resource estimate, and George outlines that it is because of all the drilling the company has done at the MainSpring Property, had not been included in this study yet, which brought in 1.9 billion lbs of copper.  Since Mainspring was amenable to open pit mining, this also allowed for Parks-Salyer to be transitioned into an open pit scenario as well, bringing in an additional 1.5 billion lbs of copper. Now that there is an enlarged pit, it confirms Parks/Salyer and MainSpring as one deposit, renamed to “Parks/Salyer.” This transition to open pit mining increases the efficiencies, improves costs, reduces capex, and takes away the need to put in the twin declines initially proposed.   There will be a Preliminary Economic Assessment coming out in the next few weeks that will wrap some economics and other mine development data around the combined project.  After that PEA, then all of the ongoing infill drilling at MainSpring and also deeper at Cactus West looking for more sulphide resources will all factor into a larger combined PFS for the whole Cactus Project, Parks Salyer, and Mainspring, both as a stand-alone project, and in concert with the Nuton leaching technology in 2025. That PFS study for next year will also review the optionality to improve the process with the investment by Nuton LLC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rio Tinto) and subsequent option to Joint Venture (“JV”) the Cactus Project to Nuton LLC using their proprietary leaching recovery methods.   George also provides some updates on permitting for the project, and the importance of it being on private land to help expedite the process.   If you have any follow up questions for George about Arizona Sonoran, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com  and I'll get those forwarded along to the company.   In full disclosure, Shad has a position in Arizona Sonoran Copper at the time of this recording.   Click here to visit the Arizona Sonoran website to read over all the recent news.

Zak Mir spoke to Metals One PLC CEO Jonathan Owen as the company which is advancing strategic minerals projects in Finland and Norway, announces a maiden JORC Inferred Mineral Resource for the P5 area of the Finland - Black Schist Project of 29 Mt1. This brings the total Black Schist Project resource to 57.1 Mt, more than double the previous estimate. Metals One doubles its Black Schist project's resource estimate in Finland to 57.1 million tons, increasing its value to around $3 billion. The company is fast-tracking a Preliminary Economic Assessment, aiming to complete it by the year's end, crucial for development metrics and EU project status. Metals One plans a phased expansion with multiple satellite pits, ensuring low-cost, high-volume mining inspired by successful nearby operations. The interview with Jonathan Owen, CEO of Metals One, conducted by Zak Mir. The discussion focuses on the company's recent progress and strategic plans. Key Points: MRE Upgrade and Doubling Resource: Metals One has announced a significant upgrade, doubling their mineral resource estimate (MRE) for the P5 area of the Finland Black Schist Project to 57.1 Mt. Funding and Strategic Decisions: The company cancelled a farm-in with Gend and directors participated in a subsequent fundraiser. This strategic decision was to ensure immediate cash availability for planned work programs rather than waiting for delayed cash flows. Project Development and Goals: Metals One aims to develop a primary economic assessment this year, supported by the new funding. They have a 93.75% stake in the Black Projects and can reclaim the remaining 6.25% from Gend at a predetermined price.

First Phosphate Corp Chief Geologist Gilles Laverdiere joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the latest results from the company's Bégin-Lamarche project in Quebec. The company has completed a 25,929-meter drill program ahead of schedule in April, with all samples now shipped to the lab for analysis. A 43-101 resource estimate will soon be initiated, followed by a Preliminary Economic Assessment. Both studies are expected to be completed by the end of fiscal Q4 2024. Laverdiere highlighted that significant phosphate layers were intersected in all but two holes continuously across the 3 km magnetic trend at Bégin-Lamarche. A total of 23 drill holes have been completed in the Phosphate Mountain Zone, with data from 20 drill holes showing grades over 10% P2O5, with widths ranging from 7 m to 99 m. The Phosphate Mountain Zone has been drilled for a total length of 250 m so far and is beginning to merge with the Northern Zone, where a 500 m thick phosphate mineralized envelope exists. This envelope has delineated up to five individual layers ranging from 60 m to 100 m in thickness, starting at the surface and continuing down to a depth of 300 m. The overall strike length of the Phosphate Mountain Zone and the Northern Zone is approximately 600 meters. Laverdiere expressed optimism about these results, emphasizing that they showcase the robust potential of the Bégin-Lamarche project.

Southern Silver Exploration Corp President Larry Page joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share results from its updated Preliminary Economic Assessment on its Cerro Las Minitas project. The study is based on an updated Mineral Resourse with Indicated - 13.3Mt averaging 102g/t Ag, 0.07g/t Au, 0.17% Cu 1.3% Pb, and 3.1% Zn totaling 43.4Moz Ag, 32Koz Au, 49Mlb Cu, 374Mlb Pb and 921Mlb Zn; and Inferred - 23.4Mt averaging 111g/t Ag, 0.14g/t Au, 0.21% Cu, 1.1% Pb and 2.1% Zn totaling 83.4Moz Ag, 104koz Au, 111Mlb Cu, 582Mlb Pb and 1,106Mlb Zn. Page told Proactive the project's Robust Economics has a Base Case1: after-tax NPV5% of $501M and IRR of 21.2%with a 48-month payback. The company says this latest economic update of represents a new milestone in the ongoing evolution and development of the project which is the culmination of a number of smaller technical improvements, developed over the last 18 months, which together result in a significant increase in the value of the Cerro Las Minitas asset. This includes the addition of new mineral resources from the North Felsite zone as first reported in March 2023; the standardization of the metallurgical recoveries and charges across each of the deposits, including the addition of gold revenues into the project cash-flow; improvements in the mine scheduling and optimization both the Operating and Capital costs of the project. Page feels infill drilling is needed, specifically on the portions of the deposit that fall within the Inferred category of classification will increase confidence in the Mineral Resource estimate, will further de-risk the project and potentially increase the value of the project. Page emphasised that the property is free from net smelter return royalties, making it more attractive for future deals. The focus is now on securing favourable agreements to maximise shareholder value. #proactiveinvestors #southernsilverexplorationcorp #tsxv #ssv #Mining, #Silver, #Gold, #Zinc, #Copper, #Mexico, #CerroLasMinitas, #LarryPage, #Investment, #MiningDevelopment, #Exploration, #Minerals, #WesternSilver, #Goldcorp, #Shareholders, #NetSmelterReturn, #MiningProperty, #MineralExploration, #SteveDarling #invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

George Ogilvie, President and CEO of Arizona Sonoran Copper (TSX:ASCU – OTCQX:ASCUF), joins me to recap the economic studies and development work completed to date and the work plan to come in 2024 and early 2025 at the Cactus Project in Arizona.   The Company put out a Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) at the Cactus Project in February, that demonstrated an initial Life of Mine of 21 years, recovering 1,153 k tons or 2.31 billion pounds of Copper LME Grade A cathode onsite via heap leach facility and SXEW.  That gave the economics on the project a post-tax Net Present Value (“NPV”) of $509 million (CA$687 million) using an 8% discount rate and an internal rate of return (“IRR”) of 15.3% and using a $3.90/lb flat long-term copper price.  There would be total revenues of $9.0 billion over 21 years, and post-tax unlevered Free Cash Flow of $2.4 billion, with All-In Sustaining Cost (“AISC”) of $2.34/lb.   George mentioned that with sensitivities close to today's copper prices, if we assumed $4.50/lb. copper prices it jumps up to an NPB of $970 million and an IRR of 22%.   However, it should be noted that all the drilling the company has done at the MainSpring Property, has not been included in this study yet, and there will be a Preliminary Economic Assessment coming out in Q3 of this year.   That study will also review the optionality to improve the process with the investment by Nuton LLC (a wholly-owned subsidiary of Rio Tinto) and subsequent option to Joint Venture (“JV”) the Cactus Project to Nuton LLC using their proprietary leaching recovery methods.   After that PEA, then all of the ongoing infill drilling at MainSpring and also deeper at Cactus West looking for more sulphide resources will all factor into a larger combined PFS for the whole Cactus Project, Parks Salyer, and Mainspring, both as a stand-alone project, and in concert with the Nuton leaching technology.   We also discussed some optionality around developing MainSpring as an open pit providing operational flexibility and gaining lower cost access to the Parks/Salyer deposit, so that bringing MainSpring into the mine plan potentially improves operational and financial synergies within the Cactus Project.  This idea will be explored further in these upcoming economic studies, and as more definition and infill drilling is completed in the gap zone between the projects. George also provides some updates on permitting for the project, and the importance of it being on private land to help expedite the process.   If you have any follow up questions for George about Arizona Sonoran, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com  and I'll get those forwarded along to the company.   In full disclosure, Shad has a position in Arizona Sonoran Copper at the time of this recording.   Click here to visit the Arizona Sonoran website to read over all the recent news.

Elaine Ellingham, President and CEO of Omai Gold Mines (TSX.V: OMG) (OTC: OMGGF), joins me for an introduction to this junior resource company focused on exploration and derisking the both the Wenot and Gilt Creek Projects across a vast mineralized gold trend in Guyana, South America.   We start off discuss the large resource in place between the 2 Projects, at over 4.3 million ounces of gold, across this brownfields and past-producing site.   Then we dive into the key metrics on the first pass Preliminary Economic Assessment, that is just on the open pit Wenot Project, and does not yet incorporate the Gilt Creek underground project economics at this point.   >> PEA Highlights for Wenot Open Pit After-tax NPV5% of $556 million and after-tax IRR of 19.8% based on $1,950/oz gold with a sensitivity case at $2,200/oz gold giving an after-tax NPV5% of $777 million and IRR of 24.7% Initial capital ("Capex") of $375 million and sustaining capital of $172 million over life-of-mine Projected average gold production of 142,000 oz per year over a 13-year mine life After-tax payback of 4.3 years at base case $1,950/oz gold (3.5 years at $2,200/oz gold) Average cash operating costs of $916/oz gold and all-in sustaining costs of $1,009/oz Cumulative cash flow of $1.07 billion after-tax over 13 years on base case assumptions Total payable gold production of 1.84 million ounces Average head grade of 1.51 g/t Au and 92.5% process recovery Average strip ratio for the open pit life-of-mine estimated at 7.8:1   Next we talk about the infrastructure and social advantages of this brownfield site in Guyana, the support of locals and the government to move this mine back into production. We touch upon the ongoing permitting,  metallurgical work, and other derisking work the company is doing in the background, in addition to the exploration upside at both the Snake Pond and Blueberry Hill areas that could bring more shallow high-grade ounces into the front end of the mine plane and further improve the project economics.   Elaine also gives us her industry background along with profiling the experience of Omai Gold Mine's management team and board of directors.  Additionally, she breaks down their relationship with strategic shareholder Silvercorp Metals, and Sandstorm Gold, in addition to other key strategic institutional funds and high net worth shareholder. We wrap up getting the financial health of the company, share structure, and key news on tap in the year to come.    If you have any questions for Elaine regarding Omai Gold Mines, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to see the latest news from Omai Gold Mines.

Interview with George Ogilvie, President & CEO of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/arizona-sonoran-tsxascu-more-copper-in-new-resource-update-pfs-coming-soon-4250Arizona Sonoran is rapidly advancing the Cactus Mine project in Arizona to capitalize on forecast copper supply deficits within the next few years.ASCU President George Ogilvie outlined plans to reach commercial production at the historic brownfield site in 3-4 years. A recently completed Pre-Feasibility Study models a 21-year mine life producing 55,000 tonnes of copper cathode annually. This doubles the outdated 2019 Preliminary Economic Assessment's 28,000 tonne per year plan, reflecting resource expansion.The PFS generates robust economics at a $3.80/lb copper price, including a $665M NPV and 15.3% IRR with a 2.4 year payback. The $515M initial capex ranks at the low end globally, enhancing the project's advantage versus competing copper projects requiring intensive capital.Beyond the base case, Arizona Sonoran is testing a proprietary leaching technology (called "Newton") to boost the recovery of copper sulfides. This could significantly increase production at a fractional capital cost uplift. Initial tests suggest Newton could achieve 70-85% recovery from sulfide minerals versus nil in the base case.ASCU also has a partnership with Rio Tinto funding Newton's optimization. This provides $33M upfront to ASCU plus the option for Rio to earn a 40% project interest on favorable, non-dilutive terms. The structure drastically reduces ASCU's equity needs and facilitates debt financing.With analysts widely forecasting large copper deficits emerging within 2-3 years as electrification drives demand higher, ASCU is positioned to capitalize on the pending supply-demand imbalance. As copper prices rise, the project's strong fundamentals and leverage to higher prices make it an attractive copper investment.—View Arizona Sonoran's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/arizona-sonoranSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Rick Howes, President & CEO of Reunion Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/reunion-gold-rgd-gold-discovery-and-resource-estimate-in-guyana-update-3198Recording date: 12th January 2024Fast-Tracking Oko West: Reunion's Path to Gold ProductionReunion Gold has firmly set its sights on reaching gold production at its Oko West project in Guyana by 2027. What sets the company apart is a methodical execution strategy to advance Oko West through studies and permitting to support this aggressive timeline.With approximately 4.3 million ounces of gold outlined since discovery in 2021, the deposit offers ample scale to underpin a meaningful mining operation. The resource estimate continues growing. While details will be forthcoming in a Preliminary Economic Assessment expected in Q2 2024, Reunion envisions both open pit and underground mine scenarios, affirmed by over $70 million raised last September to fully fund these studies.President and CEO Rick Howes attributes being sufficiently capitalized to continue advancing Oko West without further dilution as a key accomplishment in 2023, setting the stage for near-term development. The raise came despite volatile markets, aided by key support from La Mancha after extensive due diligence.Howes highlights 2024 as a pivotal year on the path to production. In addition to the PEA, Reunion is negotiating a minerals agreement to define project fiscal terms and economics. Baseline environmental field studies wrap up this quarter in preparation for submitting a formal EIA report in Q3 2024.The feasibility study launches in Q3 2024 on the heels of the PEA. Howes stresses exercising prudence defining project parameters and costs at this phase. By maintaining realistic assumptions and detailed engineering, he expresses confidence in keeping Oko West on budget and schedule.The final pieces include receiving key permits around year-end 2024 while finishing the feasibility study in Q1 2025.

Aclara Resources CFO Francois Motte joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share exciting news regarding the company's resource expansion through a significant discovery of ionic clay in Brazil. This discovery has led to the Inferred Resource Estimate for the Carina Module, reported in accordance with NI 43-101 guidelines, which stands at an impressive 168 million tonnes with a total rare earth oxide content of 1,510 ppm. Of particular importance is the presence of substantial quantities of critical rare earth elements such as Dysprosium, Terbium, Neodymium, and Praseodymium within the Carina resource. These rare earth elements hold significant importance in the manufacturing of electric vehicles and wind turbines, making this discovery highly relevant to the clean energy sector. Motte highlighted that Aclara's rare earth recovery process aligns seamlessly with the company's patented and successfully demonstrated processing technology at a pilot scale. This technology is specifically designed to minimize both cost and environmental impact. Notably, the ionic clays rich in rare earths will be extracted from a shallow open pit using mechanical excavation. Importantly, this process does not generate tailings, eliminating the need for a tailings storage facility. Looking ahead, Aclara Resources has ambitious plans to further enhance the resource base. This includes adding resources at depth through a reverse circulation (RC) drilling program already in progress and scheduled for completion in Q2 2024. Additionally, the company aims to produce samples by piloting Carina's ionic clays at Aclara's pilot plant in Chile during December 2023 and January 2024. These steps will pave the way for the completion of an initial Preliminary Economic Assessment in January 2024. This remarkable discovery and resource expansion highlight Aclara Resources' commitment to supplying critical rare earth elements essential for the growth of clean energy technologies while embracing environmentally responsible mining practices. #proactiveinvestors #aclararesourcesinc #tsx #ara #mining #RareEarthsDiscovery, #BrazilIonicClay, #ResourceExploration, #EconomicImpact, #GlobalResources, #MiningInnovation, #CFOInterview, #KarinaMemorialProject, #TechnologicalAdvancements, #MiningTechnology, #SustainableResources, #EconomicGrowth, #InvestmentOpportunity, #MineralExploration, #GreenMining, #EnvironmentalImpact, #FutureOfMining, #IonicClayDeposits, #MineralResources, #SustainableDevelopment, #MineralEconomics, #ResourceIndustryNews, #MiningUpdate, #StrategicMinerals#invest #investing #investment #investor #stockmarket #stocks #stock #stockmarketnews

OM.V 4 Aug 2022, 08:19 Osisko Metals Reports First Infill Drill Results at Gaspé Copper Highlights include: Of the sixteen drill holes reported below, fourteen extended disseminated/stockwork copper-silver mineralization outside the current pit-constrained resource model, including up to 170 metres in drill hole 30-0991 below the currently designed pit floor. All fourteen holes ended in mineralization above or within the C Zone skarn horizon. Drill hole 30-0977, located 142.0 metres south of the modelled pit, intersected 375.3 metres grading 0.20% Cu and 1.31g/t Ag. This hole stopped in mineralization and can be extended if warranted. Drill hole 30-0985 intersected 528.0 metres grading 0.26% Cu and 1.72g/t Ag, including 46.5 metres grading 1.1% Cu and 6.19g/t Ag in skarn-style disseminated mineralization in the C Zone. This hole extends 122.0 m below the currently designed pit floor and stopped in mineralization. Robert Wares, Chairman & CEO, commented: “We are very pleased with the initial results of our 30,000-metre drill program at Gaspé Copper. Most of the reported results are from holes collared on top of Mount Copper, where historical drilling was relatively scarce. We can now confirm that this area is mineralized with limited oxide copper and that the potential for further expansion of the deposit appears to be significant as most of these holes ended in mineralization. With four drill rigs on site currently, I am excited to build upon what is already the largest undeveloped copper resource in Eastern North America.” About Osisko Metals Osisko Metals Incorporated is a Canadian exploration and development company creating value in the critical metals space.

Integra Resources is a development-stage mining company focused on the exploration and de-risking of the past producing DeLamar Gold-Silver Project in Idaho, USA. Integra Resources is led by the management team from Integra Gold Corp. which successfully grew, developed and sold the Lamaque Project, in Quebec, for C$600 M in 2017. Since acquiring the DeLamar Project, which includes the adjacent DeLamar and Florida Mountain gold and silver Deposits, in late 2017, the Company has demonstrated significant resource growth and conversion while providing a robust economic study in its maiden Preliminary Economic Assessment. The Company is currently focused on resource growth through brownfield and greenfield exploration and the start of advanced studies designed to de-risk the DeLamar Project and move it towards a potential development decision. For additional information, please reference the “Technical Report and Preliminary Economic Assessment for the DeLamar and Florida Mountain Gold – Silver Project, Owyhee County, Idaho, USA (October 22, 2019).”

Search Minerals controls a rapidly emerging Critical Rare Earth Element (CREE) District in SE Labrador that is road accessible and on tidewater. The FOXTROT Deposit, on which a favourable Preliminary Economic Assessment was completed in April 2016, was the first of three important discoveries. Based on surface expression, the other two, Deep Fox and Fox Meadow, appear to be at least as large as FOXTROT. Surface channel sample assays at Deep Fox yielded grades 15% higher than channels at FOXTROT. Search has identified more than 20 other prospects in this highly accessible District and has developed a proprietary, scalable, hydrometallurgical process to optimize every opportunity to position as a competitive low-cost supplier of CREEs well into the future.The Company enjoys tremendous support from the Government of Canada and the Province of Newfoundland and Labrador, both of which have financially supported the development of our proprietary metallurgical process. In addition, Search personnel on the ground have built strong relationships with local communities and with the Nunatukavut Community Council who represent the local aboriginal people. All of these factors will help to ensure that our project can be brought into production at relatively low capital and operating costs and in a timely manner.
