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

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Liam Garman sits down with Futurerent CEO, Godfrey Dinh, to discuss how investors can rapidly leverage their rental income to grow their portfolios. The duo begins by explaining the concept of Futurerent, which offers an alternative to traditional bank refinancing by providing a streamlined, hassle-free method for investors to unlock capital from their properties. The process uses a “concurrent lease” agreement, where Futurerent provides an upfront rental prepayment, which investors repay over a set period, ensuring immediate cash while maintaining steady rental income. Throughout the podcast, Godfrey highlights success stories, including one where a client renovated a property to increase rent, enhancing both income and borrowing capacity for future investments. Godfrey said that Futurerent's philosophy is based on the “POWER” method – Potential, Oxygen, Wealth Creation, Equity, and Recycle – allowing investors to grow their portfolios, gain quick access to capital, and promote long-term wealth creation.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant sits down with mortgage expert Eva Loisance from Finni Mortgages to explore the advantages of refinancing and how it can help investors grow their property portfolio. The co-hosts talk about the growing trend of refinancing as many investors seek to secure lower interest rates, particularly with the recent RBA rate cuts, while discussing 10 other reasons to refinance beyond just securing a better rate. One reason to refinance is to secure a higher property valuation, which lowers the loan-to-value ratio (LVR) and unlocks better equity, with Eva pointing out that different banks have varying valuation methods, which can significantly impact a property's value. Refinancing also allows consolidating high-interest debts, like credit cards and car loans, into a single loan with lower repayments. Additionally, it enables extracting equity to fund new investments, accelerating property growth without needing a large deposit. Other reasons to refinance include consolidating bad debts, better policy terms, boosting capacity, and resetting the interest-only period. The co-hosts said investors who refinance their loans can access better mortgage products, improve loan features like offsets, and even switch to more favourable lenders by refinancing.

Home renovations can substantially increase your equity and cash flow on a rental property, but when doing one, there are two key things you need to pay attention to: budgets and timelines. Today, rookie real estate investor Rene Hosman is back to teach you how to do both after just finishing a three-month, $36,000 rental renovation where she turned an outdated apartment into a cash-flowing condo! Rene was able to rehab the entire unit (two bedrooms, one bathroom) with a budget of around $30,000, and although she may have gone slightly over, her returns look nothing less than phenomenal. How did she do everything—new floors, electrical, bathroom, AND furnishings—with such a reasonable budget? If you're ready to renovate your home or rental property, take her tips. Rene goes through every aspect of the project: the good (renting it out right after finishing) and the bad (a BIG flood in the master bedroom), plus everything in between. She'll share what she chose to DIY, what was smarter to hire out, and how she paid for it all. We also get the final numbers of the renovation—what the property appraised for AND how much it's renting for now! In This Episode We Cover: How to stay on budget and on timeline when doing your next home renovation Unexpected costs that led to thousands of more dollars in renovation expenses Whether you should buy the materials or let your workers buy them instead (cost-saving tip!) Furnishing your rental property for cheap and where Rene finds low-cost, quality furniture How to negotiate with your bank so you can get a LOWER interest rate when you refinance How much cash flow Rene will make off of this small (but mighty) medium-term rental And So Much More!
