Large seed dispersers are disproportionately affected by human disturbances like habitat loss and poaching. At the same time, a disproportionate number of tropical tree species rely on animals for seed dispersal. What happens when these animals disappear from an area? Do forests suffer and how might this impact things like carbon cycling and climate? Join me and Dr. Evan Fricke as we explore these questions and more.

John Miniotis, President and CEO of AbraSilver Resource Corp (TSX: ABRA) (OTCQX: ABBRF), joined us to review the new expanded Mineral Resource Estimate, development work building towards the Definitive Feasibility Study, and the ongoing 20,000 meter Phase 5 drill program at their wholly-owned Diablillos property in Salta Province, Argentina. The updated MRE now totals 104 million tonnes ("Mt") of ore, containing approximately 199 million ounces ("Moz") of silver and 1.72 Moz of gold (350 Moz silver-equivalent "AgEq") in the Measured & Indicated ("M&I") category. This total includes a maiden heap leach Mineral Resource estimate and reflects significant increases across five deposits (Oculto, JAC, Fantasma, Laderas and Sombra) located at Diablillos. Key Highlights of the Updated MRE (Combined Tank and Heap Leach): Total M&I Mineral Resources (tank and heap leach) now stand at 104 Mt grading 59 g/t Ag and 0.51 g/t Au, containing 199 Moz Ag and 1.72 Moz Au (350 Moz AgEq). Tank leach Mineral Resource estimate totals 73 Mt grading 79 g/t Ag and 0.66 g/t Au, containing 186 Moz Ag and 1.55 Moz Au (327 Moz AgEq). Maiden heap leach MRE adds 31 Mt grading 13 g/t Ag and 0.16 g/t Au, containing 13 Moz Ag and 162 koz Au (23 Moz AgEq). Based on lower-grade material contained with the constraining Whittle open pit, previously classified as waste, now recognized as potentially recoverable though a low-cost processing route. Key Changes Compared to Prior MRE (Tank Leach Only): 25% increase in contained silver in M&I Mineral Resources to 186 Moz Ag from 148 Moz Ag. 14% increase in contained gold in M&I Mineral Resources to 1.55 Moz Au from 1.36Moz Au. 27% increase in M&I silver-equivalent ounces to 327 Moz AgEq from 258 Moz AgEq. With three drill rigs now active across the broader Diablillos land package, and the potential to add a fourth rig in the future, the Company is entering another exciting new phase of exploration growth. In addition, the Company is doing all the derisking work programs in parallel with exploration for their ongoing Definitive Feasibility Study due out in early 2026, which will be followed by a PEA on the heap-leach economics, and another updated to the mineral resource once all the Phase V data is incorporated into that study.

Mark Brennan, Founder, CEO, and Director of Cerrado Gold Inc (TSX.V: CERT) (OTCQX: CRDOF), joins me to review the Q2 2025 operations and 20,000 meter expansionary exploration program at the producing Minera Don Nicolas gold mine in Argentina, and the value proposition key upcoming development catalysts at the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project in Portugal and the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium project in Quebec. Q2 2025 M.D.N. Operating Highlights: Gold Equivalent Ounce ("GEO") Production of 11,437 GEO for the 2nd Quarter 2025 Underground Development has commenced and production set to ramp up in H2/2025 Expanded crushing and agglomeration capacity should expand tonnages to the leach pads and improve recoveries at the Heap Leach operation 2025 Production Guidance of 55,000 - 60,000 GEO remains in place, production weighted to H2 2025 as underground ramps up 20,000m Exploration Program underway at MDN targeting potential significant resource growth opportunities Mark and I review their Minera Don Nicolas producing gold project in Argentina, and the record heap leach gold equivalent ounce production for the quarter. We discuss the positive impact that the newly installed secondary crusher has brought to production starting at the tail-end of Q2, but then will continue to be impactful on a move-forward basis in Q3 and beyond, with the quantity of ore being placed on the pad having increased. The production profile will also keep growing in Q3 with the underground mining having now commenced. With higher gold prices, the CIL plant continued to process lower-grade stockpiles and is planned to continue processing low grade stockpiles through Q2/25, after which it will be blended with new high-grade material from the underground mining operations, and this will increase the average grade throughput at the mill. Another area of future growth will be the 20,000 meter drill program that is exploring the open pit resources, as well as identifying for more satellite open-pits at surface. Having gone underground, there is also now the potential for underground exploration work to begin targeting new areas of mineralization or further defining existing areas of mineralization. Next we unpacked the growing value proposition at the Lagoa Salgada VMS Project in Portugal, with a Post-tax NPV of US$147 million and a 39% IRR in the current Feasibility Study. This Project adds both substantial precious metals resources along with critical minerals exposure (42 % Gold & Silver, 24% zinc, 14% copper, and 5% tin) to the future production profile. We also discuss the 2 areas that will be addressed in the resubmission of their Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) where approval is expected after upcoming political elections, and there will be an optimized Feasibility Study released in Q3, a construction decision by year end or early next year. Construction is targeted for Q2 of 2026, with first production slated for H2 2027.* We wrap up discussing the underappreciated value and ongoing derisking work that is moving towards a Bankable Feasibility Study in Q1 of 2026 at the Mont Sorcier Iron-Vanadium in Quebec. Recent metallurgical test work, has reaffirmed the potential to produce high-grade and high-purity iron concentrate grading in excess of 67% iron with silica and alumina content below 2.3%.

Scott Emerson, President and CEO of Kingsmen Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KNG) (OTCQB: KNGRF) (FSE: TUY), joins me for an introduction to this newly formed junior exploration company focused on silver and gold discoveries across the Parral District, in Chihuahua, Mexico. We start off with Scott sharing some of the background on how this company came together, where he consolidated 15 mining concessions around the prior-producing Las Coloradas Mine to form their flagship Las Coloradas Project, and ensure that their land package has district-scale size potential. After a few years of work consolidating the land, sampling and mapping, and reviewing historical data from Asarco, the Company is now engaged in a 3,000 meter drill program, with 6 priority holes along the strike of the old mine, and upwards of 11-14 holes in total, that may also test beneath the water table. Next we discussed the secondary Almoloya Gold-Silver Project, that has about 3 times the land position as Las Coloradas, and also involved consolidating several large concessions, including the prior-producing Cigarrero Mine. The mineralization is considered prospective for CRD types of polymetallic deposits, with the potential for near-surface oxide precious metals mineralization. Wrapping up I had Scott share his background in the industry, highlight a few of the key members of the management team and board of directors, key stakeholders, and the financial health of this new exploration company. The company is cashed up to execute on this exploration program, and drilling is underway.

Seed dispersal is a vital ecological process no matter what scale you look at. From the genetic diversity of plant populations to the impact of forests on climate, how plants move around the landscape and regenerate is one of the most important processes on Earth. So, what happens when plants lose seed their seed dispersers? How do things like poaching and habitat loss affect these ecological relationships? These are the kinds of questions that drive Dr. Therese Lamperty's research. Join us for a fascinating look at the challenges in studying what it means for plants and the ecosystems they comprise to lose their seed dispersers.

Brad Rourke, President and CEO of Scottie Resources (TSX.V:SCOT – OTCQB:SCTSF), joins me to review a number of key takeaways from recent newsflow on the further derisking work building towards an upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) and the largest ever drill program exploring and expanding resources at the Scottie Gold Mine Project located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. We start off reviewing that drilling has been underway with 3 diamond drill rigs on the property and a 4th drill rig is being added in the next week focused at targets around the past-producing Scottie Gold Mine and the adjacent, high-priority Blueberry Contact Zone-is located just 35 kilometres north of Stewart, British Columbia. Brad points out that a big percentage of the planned 25,000-30,000 meters will be focused on upgrading the resources from inferred to indicated categories as well as resource at the Blueberry Contact Zone, with a focus on the open pit and upper portions of the underground resources at both Blueberry and Scottie, and detailed testing of the siltstone side of the contact zone. We also review follow-up step-out drilling on the Wolf Zone target discovered in 2024 at the Scottie Gold Mine area. Ongoing geotechnical and hydrogeology drilling will also provide data to inform mine design and assist efforts with the recent initiation of Baseline Environmental Studies. With all this exploration and fieldwork now underway, the Company remains on track to deliver a low-capex PEA based on a Direct Shipment Ore (DSO) scenario in October. Brad reiterates that the management team and board believes this coming economics study will clearly highlight the significant, untapped value of the Scottie Gold Mine Project. Next we touched on the big news out to the market today on July 24, 2025, which announced that Scottie Resources has received all required permits from the government of British Columbia to proceed with a 10,000-tonne surface bulk sampling program. The Bulk Sample is slated to be taken from the road accessible, outcropping Bend Vein located on the north end of the Scottie Gold Mine Project, and is expected to produce 3,000 - 4,000 tonnes of mineralized rock. This will be a nice opportunity to learn more about a number of metrics and provide a nice proof of concept, as well as generating some non-dilutive capital for the Company in the process. When reviewing their direct-ship ore strategy, Brad highlighted that Scottie has one of the closest gold projects to a deep-sea shipping terminal, which based on its location is positioned in one of North America's cheapest commercial shipping lanes to Asia. In addition to the ease of a proposed open-pit mine, which already has an existing mine permit, there is also key external infrastructure in place, such as power lines and hauling roads right to site. Wrapping up we review the importance of the recent financing announced on July 9th, for a $16.8 million non-brokered private placement financing, of which a lead order of $6 million, translating to $8.4 million in charitable flow-through funding, will be provided by Ocean Partners UK Limited. Brad outlines that Ocean Partners, in addition to their participation in the recent financing, has entered into a binding term sheet with Scottie to provide a commercial offtake agreement 100% production for first 8 years of commercial production, and has made available a construction loan and overrun facility of USD$25 million, to advance the Scottie DSO Project towards production. If you have any questions for Brad regarding Scottie Resources, then please email them in to me at Shad@kereport.com.

Shaun Heinrichs, President and CEO of 1911 Gold Corp (TSXV: AUMB) (OTCBB: AUMBF), joins me to for a comprehensive exploration and development update for advancing their True North Project, which includes a permitted mine and mill complex located on the Company's 100%-owned Rice Lake Gold property, spanning 61,647 hectares within and adjacent to the Archean Rice Lake greenstone belt in Manitoba, Canada. Shaun outlines how 1911 Gold believes its land package is a prime exploration opportunity, on a brownfield site, with the potential to develop a mining district centered on expanding resources and eventually moving back into the development of the past-producing True North complex. In addition to the permitted mine, there is a 1300 tpd permitted mill in place, which is expandable to 2250 tpd, which would have access to cheap hydroelectric power, and there is a permitted tailings area. There is an ongoing aggressive exploration program underway at surface for shallow high-grade targets as well as at depth, at their 2 new discoveries: the San Antonio West and San Antonio South East. The ongoing drilling is expanding the known resources of around 1.1 million ounces of gold in all categories. There will be a steady stream of exploration updates over the balance of this year. Additionally, this exploration date will be fed into future resource update slated for early in 2026. The next major milestone for the company will be incorporating mine modeling and engineering models as the company works towards a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), anticipated by year-end. Shaun also highlights that after the PEA in Q4, and the resource estimate update in Q1, that another key future milestone will be 2 different trial mining and bulk samples slated for the middle of next year. These will be crucial in confirming and comparing to the data outlined in the PEA, for acting as a proof-of-concept, and the bulk samples will be processed at their mill and bring in non-dilutive capital to the company during the learning process. The company is financially sound, and cashed up for all work initiatives through those bulk samples next year. If you have any questions for Shaun regarding 1911 Gold Corp, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com. Click here to follow the latest news from 1911 Gold Corp
Jason Jessup, CEO and Director of Magna Mining (TSX.V: NICU) (OTCQX: MGMNF), joins me for a review of H2 2025 guidance and an operations update at their producing McCreedy West copper mine in Sudbury, Canada. We also review the ongoing exploration and development work at the Levack Mine, working towards and updated resource estimate in Q3 and mine restart plan by year-end for potential production in 2026. We also review the news out today about the closing of the acquisition of a package of development and exploration projects from NorthX Nickel Corp. We kick off the conversation with a review of production and cost guidance for the second half of 2025 a their McCreedy West Mine. Highlights (in USD unless otherwise stated): Quarterly ore sales from the 700 Copper Zone are expected to be between 80,000 and 92,000 tons in the second half of 2025. Contained copper equivalent grade expected to be between 2.9% to 3.4% in Q3 2025, and 3.8% to 4.4% in Q4 2025. Cash costs (per copper equivalent pound) expected to be $3.85 to $4.40 in Q3 2025, reducing to $3.11 to $3.66 in Q4 2025. AISC (per copper equivalent pound) expected to be $4.95 to $5.49 in Q3 2025 and $3.85 to $4.47 in Q4 2025. Jason discusses the primary focus at McCreedy West for this year is really getting all the development work completed to be able to really ramp up production in a big way in 2026. The company has invested capital into underground equipment and additional development, hired additional people to support a 24-7 operation at the mine, and they are seeing the benefits of this plan materialize. The mine plan for this year is evolving, where a 3rd party contractor has been brought in to get in front of 6+ months of extra underground development, with the plan to get access to mining areas that have better grades like the area to the west of the 700 Copper Zone. Jason explains that they expect all-in sustaining costs to decrease in 2026 after concluding their accelerated capital development program and achieve our optimization goals. There will still be ore processed each quarter, but the operations teams wants to get enough stopes opened up through development for the balance of this year to have options in accessing mineralization from different parts of the mine. We also reviewed how in addition to the high-grade copper area of the mine in the 700 Copper Zone, that there is the Intermain Nickel Zone and a Precious Metals Zone, with platinum, palladium, and gold that can be accessed down the road at the right metals prices and margins. Next we transitioned over to all the exploration focus at the past-producing Levack mine and Jason outlines the Company strategy to keep aggressively drilling and delineating mineralization with a targeted Resource Estimate for Q3, while also continuing with engineering work to then put out a Mine Restart Plan by year end or the beginning of next year. This is all leading towards the pathway for bringing the Levack Mine back into production in 2026. Additionally, the team is still advancing similar derisking and development work at their Crean Hill Project where, depending on financial market conditions, it could be on a dual track for production in late 2026 or early 2027. Wrapping up we reviewed a few of the exploration and development properties included in their acquisition which closed today with portfolio of properties located in the Sudbury Basin from NorthX Nickel Corp. (CSE: NIX). The NorthX properties being acquired represent 304 km2 of mineral claims, leases and patents in the Sudbury area. The acquisition of the NorthX property portfolio brings Magna's aggregate holdings in the Sudbury area to 584 km2. Several properties host known exploration targets within Sudbury Breccia units in the footwall of the Sudbury Igneous Complex (SIC), including the Wisner, Blezard, Frost Lake and Creighton South properties. The Wisner property historically produced 295,000 tonnes grading 0.9% Cu and 4.1 g/t Pt + Pd + Au from the surface Broken Hammer Zone (Technical Report on Wallbridge's Sudbury Area Properties, Ontario (Canada), 2017). The Blezard and Creighton South properties cover portions of the footwall environment near the known Blezard and Creighton contact deposits, which have measured and indicated resources of 7.9 million tonnes grading 1.0% Ni, 0.7% Cu and 6.2 million tonnes grading 4.5% Ni, 3.3% Cu, respectively.

Their ancestors once dominated the coal swamps of the Carboniferous Period, growing into massive trees that could reach upwards of 160 feet (50 m) into the canopy. Today, the quillworts (Isoetes spp.) are all that remains of this lineage. Though cosmopolitan in their distribution, quillworts can be hard to find unless you know where to look. Luckily, there are people like Dr. David Wickell who have placed them at the center of their scientific focus.

Self-Incompatibility is a means by which some plants prevent self-fertilization and promotes outcrossing. It has evolved independently in many different groups and plays a very important role in the ecology, evolution, and conservation of different species. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Grace Bergin to explore the multitude of ways she is trying to understand self-incompatibility in the genus Phlox. Join us for a fascinating deep dive into what it takes to understand this phenomenon in Phlox.

Terry Harbort, President and CEO of Talisker Resources (TSX: TSK) (OTCQX:TSKFF), joins me to highlight the key milestone of the first development ore being milled at Nicola Mining's Craigmont Mill located in Merritt, British Columbia. Talisker announced on July 7th that the Company has commenced milling and processing of run of mine material from the Mustang Mine vein material extracted from the 1060 and 1075 development levels. We unpacked this major positive milestone for the Company, and what the ramp up in to production will look like for the second half of this year. Talisker continues to develop on the 1060, 1075, 1105 and 1120 levels with in-vein development active on the BK vein on the 1075 level and both the BK and BK9870 veins on the 1105 level. Long-hole drilling in preparation for the mining and extraction of the first stope is underway targeting the 3264 stope from the Alhambra vein located between the 1060 and 1075 levels. Blasting and extraction of the first stope is expected to occur later this week. We review that main area of focus for the development declines and work up until this point in time has been in the unmined area, between the historically mined Bralorne and King mines, now referred to as the Mustang Mine. We shift over to the measured ramp-up of throughput from mined ore at the Mustang Mine with throughput now above 200 tonnes per day (tpd) and the goal to get that up to 250 tpd by year-end. Moving into next year it is anticipated that throughput can rise from 300 tpd, up to 500 tpd, and then eventually 750 tpd in the years thereafter. That will involve pulling in material from the unmined areas between the historic Bralorne and Pioneer mines as a second eventual area of focus. In addition to being amenable to toll milling at nearby processing centers with spare capacity, there is a second study underway looking at upgrading the ore on site using ore-sorting technology, so that higher-grade material, with less associated waste would make it more economical to be shipped to additional processing centers. An economic study is slated for later this year that will explore some of these concepts in more detail. Wrapping up we discuss the key milestones and news on tap for the balance of this year.

Shawn Howarth, President and CEO of Excellon Resources (TSXV:EXN) (OTC:EXNRF)(FRA:E4X2), joins me to overview their 4 precious metals projects, with an emphasis on the recent closing in May of the acquisition of the past-producing Mallay Silver Mine, with plans to move this mine back into production by Q2 of 2026. We then review the large exploration potential across their other 3 projects: Tres Cerros, Kilgore, and Silver City. We kick things off having Shawn highlight why the company updated their project profile to focus on the jurisdiction of the Cerro de Pasco area of Peru, when acquiring both the Mallay Silver Mine and Tres Cerros exploration projects in the transaction announced in October of 2024, and closed on in May of this year. Excellon has been a producing silver company in the past, and the management team and board had solid in-county experience in Peru, this transaction seemed like a perfect fit for taking the company to the next level. Mallay was built and operated by Buenaventura from 2012 to 2018, with US$115 million of historical investment. The mine went into care and maintenance in 2018 due to low silver prices (~US$16.00 per ounce) and a change in strategic priorities at Buenaventura. Annual production by Buenaventura (2013 to 2017) averaged 1.3 million ounces of silver, 9,100 tonnes of zinc and 6,500 tonnes of lead. Excellon announced a few months back that it has secured off-take agreements with Glencore for their concentrates, and is working to put a NI 43-101 economic study in place this year, to outline specific metrics for the move back into production. Shawn outlined that their internal studies project a run-rate of 600 tonnes per day of production, producing approximately 2-2.5 million silver equivalent ounces per year, and with a target All-In Sustaining Cost (AISC) of US$17 per AgEq ounce. Shawn points out that they will also be engaging in an aggressive exploration program to demonstrate the resources can be grown and the mine life extended in a substantial way. The Tres Cerros Project is a highly prospective gold-silver exploration project approximately five kilometers northwest of the Mallay Mine. The project's prime area of interest is a 2.5 kilometer by 500 meter corridor of gold-silver mineralization and coincident IP/resistivity anomalies, indicative of a bulk tonnage, high sulfidation epithermal system. Numerous historical grab samples were taken across the 2.5 kilometer fault, which are being analyzed to determine further follow-up exploration work. Kilgore, is an advanced gold project in Idaho with over 1 million ounces of gold delineated in all categories, and the Company is considering bringing in a JV partner to assist with moving this project forward in exploration and further derisking. Silver City, a high-grade epithermal silver district in Saxony, Germany, with a long history of almost 800 years of silver production. Shawn has stated publicly that they are looking at various options, but are entertaining the idea of spinning out this asset into a new European-focused exploration vehicle. Wrapping up we reviewed the industry experience the Excellon management team and board has in both moving projects into production as well as a pedigree of exploration success. We discussed that the company is cashed up after their financing and off-take agreement, to conduct the key work and studies on tap over the next 6-9 months as the company moves toward a production decision.

Andrew Pollard, President and CEO of Blackrock Silver (TSX.V:BRC – OTCQX:BKRRF), joins me to discuss the final set of assay results released from its Resource Expansion Program showing significant width and high-grade silver and gold drill intercepts in step-out drilling at its 100% owned Tonopah West Project in Nevada, United States. Blackrock's resource expansion program at Tonopah West, which commenced in September 2024, consisted of 18 drillholes totalling 10,802 meters (35,438 feet) of drilling, targeted expansion potential along a one-kilometer northwest trend between the Denver-Paymaster and Bermuda-Merten vein groups ("DPB") south resource area and the Northwest (NW) Step Out resource area. HIGHLIGHTS: TXC25-144 cut 10.12 metres grading 467 grams per tonne (g/t) silver equivalent (AgEq) (283 g/t silver (Ag) & 2 g/t gold (Au)), including 3.51 metres of 1,020 g/t AgEq (620 g/t Ag & 4.43 g/t Au); TXC25-145 encountered multiple zones of high-grade mineralization which included 0.67 metres of 3,264 g/t AgEq (2,008 g/t Ag & 13.93 g/t Au) within 11.58 metres grading 327 g/t AgEq (186 g/t Ag & 1.56 g/t Au) and 2.32 metres grading 401 g/t AgEq (242 g/t Ag & 1.76 g/t Au); TXC25-153 drilled 0.7 metres of 724 g/t AgEq (437 g/t Ag & 3.18 g/t Au) within 5.73 metres of 156 g/t AgEq (96 g/t Ag & 0.67 g/t Au); Step-out drilling has established continuity of high-grade gold & silver mineralization over significant widths that runs 500 metres along drill-defined strike from the existing DPB resource shell to the northwest; and Targeting is now underway to bridge mineralization on remaining 500 metres of vein corridor to NW Step Out resource area. We review that in addition to higher confidence ounces, where there is now tighter drill spacing and ounces are going to be moving into the measured and indicated categories from inferred, that the resources will be growing in size, raising the overall high-grade deposit to even higher average grades, and there is more up-dip mineralization that will be factoring into the early year economics of the Project. These various data points will be incorporated into the upcoming updated resource estimate incorporating the M&I drilling due out by September, and then there will be a second resource update early next year that incorporates all the expansion drilling towards the NorthWest Step Out, and the Eastern Expansion area off DPB South towards the Ohio mine area. After both resources have been released, then all of that data, combined with recent hydrology work, permitting work, and other derisking will be factored into an updated PEA. We wrap up discussing the larger vision to get permitted to go underground and start working a trial mining study, where the bulk sample should be sizeable, and will verify assumptions on geology, ground conditions, recovery rates, and will be a payable event from the processed mineralized material. These various catalysts are all opportunities for the company to rerate higher, in addition to just rerating more in alignment with the metrics the handful of other high-grade silver peers are receiving at present. If you have any follow up questions for Andrew regarding Blackrock Silver, then please email them into me at Shad@kereport.com.

Roger Rosmus, Founder, CEO, & Director of Goliath Resources (TSX.V: GOT) (OTCQB: GOTRF), joins me to review the news out July 7th that announced the re-logging of drill hole GD-24-280 assayed 8.31 g/t Au over 23.00 meters, including 15.69 g/t Au over 11 meters, including 37.45 g/t Au or 1.20 oz/T over 4 meters in a third rock package within the high-grade gold Bonanza Zone and Surebet Discovery on the Golddigger Property located in the Golden Triangle of British Columbia. This leads to a larger discussion about prior press releases related to the overall 75 hole relogging program, and then the early visual results from the ongoing, 60,000 meters of new drilling, which will be the largest exploration program to date. The increase to this year's early exploration focus on relogging these holes is in light of the newly discovered widespread abundant visible gold seen with the naked eye in multiple reduced intrusion related gold (RIRG) dykes, as well as in the calc-silicate altered breccia which now means there is gold in 3 distinct rock pages on the property. Roger describes the news release from back on June 23rd as really being the roadmap of what to expect as anticipated previously drill holes of interest and highlights a number of holes that are pending assays back from the lab. This re-logging initiative of core drilled between 2021 – 2024 is significantly expanding the area of strong gold potential, and takes the number of holes that have now intercepted ‘visible gold' up to 94%. Then we shifted over to the larger 60,000 meter drill program that is currently underway and still at the early stages, but Roger highlights the press release from July 2nd, where dill hole# GD-25-302 intersected 6 occurrences of gold visible to the naked eye within a 96.50 meter mineralized interval from 89.50 meters to 186.00 meters within sulphide rich calc-silicate veins in altered andesite with high density veining. This hole is still in progress and is the first deep hole drilled on Surebet designed to go to a depth of 1,000 meters to test the area believed to have strong potential to contain the Motherlode magmatic source responsible for the 1.8 km2 area of high-grade gold mineralization that remains wide open at the Surebet Discovery; assays are pending for drill hole GD-25-302. There will be a flood of assays coming in from both the relogging initiative, as well as the new holes being drilled this season, so click on the link down below to follow along with all the news from the Company as it hits the newswires. If you have any questions for Roger about Goliath Resources, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com and then we'll get those answered or covered in a future interviews.

Glenn Jessome, President and CEO of Silver Tiger Metals (TSX.V:SLVR – OTCQX:SLVTF), joins me to outline the importance of the imminent Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) on the underground mine at their 100% owned, silver-gold El Tigre Project in Mexico. We then expand the conversation to highlight some upcoming blue-sky regional drilling that the exploration team will commence this fall around the La Protectora historic mine on trend with El Tigre. Wrapping up we also have Glenn separate the facts from the media hyperbole as it relates to mining and permitting in Mexico. With the open-pit Pre-Feasibility Study (PFS) solidly in place at El Tigre, and the operations team ready to hit the ground running just as soon as the final permits are received, the focus then shifted to building towards the upcoming PEA on the underground mine. The team has been compiling the last 5 years of work delineating the 113 million ounces of silver equivalent resources in the high-grade veins, shale, and sulphide zones underground portion of El Tigre, the metallurgical studies, and engineering work to be able to release the PEA by month's end. This report will center around the already permitted underground scenario utilizing an 800 tonnes-per-day (tpd) mill, and focusing on the initial first 10 years of mine life. Glenn points out that during the PFS study on their open pit at El Tigre, that the 3rd-party qualified contractor noted when also reviewing their underground resources that they could add between 73-100 million more ounces simply by tightening up the drilling density in a number of areas. We discuss the clear expansion potential beyond what will be highlighted in these initial economics. Next we widened the vision of the company to their large district scale land position and how El Tigre is focused on just 2.5kms of a 20+ kilometer trend, peppered with a number of historically producing mines to both the south and the north. The board has decided the time is right to step out and start doing regional exploration at the next key target of interest; around the La Protectora mine, located to the north of El Tigre. Glenn mentioned that their exploration team has been on site there for the last couple months, mapping, sampling, and doing some targeting work to be able to start drilling there this Fall. Wrapping up we focus on the misunderstandings from investors and the media with regards to the operational and permitting environment in Mexico, how the positive meetings between the government and mining companies have been ignored, and why the hyperbolic statements from some market commentators and the media have made a big deal about the “no new concessions” will be granted, not understanding the most mining concessions have already been granted for tens or hundreds of years now, so that won't really matter, and doesn't have anything to do with permitting on existing concessions. If you have any follow up questions for Glenn about Silver Tiger, then please email me at Shad@kereport.com.

Ken MacLeod, President and CEO of Sonoro Gold Corp (TSXV: SGO) (OTCQB: SMOFF), joins me to review the value proposition for their flagship Cerro Caliche Gold Project, and the exploration and development initiatives to move it into open-pit gold and silver production within ~12 months of receiving their final permit in Mexico. This 1,400-hectare property confirms a broadly mineralized low-sulphidation epithermal vein structure and over 25 northwest-trending gold mineralized zones along trend and near surface. With only 30% of the property's identified mineralized zones drilled and assayed, the Company filed an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) in March 2023 based on a total 55,360 meters of drilled data, including 498 drill holes, 17 trenches and assays for 53,865 meters of the drilled data. In October 2023, the Company filed a new Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) demonstrating the potential viability for a 9-year open pit, heap leach mining operation. Using a gold price of US $1,800 per ounce, the project has an after-tax net present value discounted at 5% (“NPV5”) of US $47.7M and an Internal Rate of Return (“IRR”) of 45%. Using a gold price of US $2,000 per ounce, the project has an after-tax NPV5 of US $77M and an IRR of 63%. We discussed that with precious metals prices so much higher that the project has grown in value considerably, and the Company is working on an updated PEA for Q3 of this year, factoring in the ability to bring in material previously sterilized, and the cost efficiencies of the higher gold and silver prices. Ken reviews the potential for resource expansion once the mine is in production, funded through organic revenue generation. We also discussed the bench strength and experience of the management team and board, the strong inside ownership and separate the signal from all the media noise as it relates to permitting in Mexico and their anticipated receipt of their MIA for environmental impact later this year.

Ali Haji, CEO of American Tungsten Corp. (CSE:TUNG) (OTCQB:DEMRF) (FSE:RK9), joins me to introduce the exploration and development company focused on bringing onshore tungsten mining and production capabilities to the United States through its derisked past-producing IMA Mine in Idaho. We start off discussing the dynamics around this strategic defense metal, where the majority of tungsten supply is controlled by China, and is a necessary component in a wide array of defense applications, including but not limited to the production of ammunition, armored equipment, artillery, and space exploration. Today, tungsten is a classified critical metal by the U.S Department of Defense due to its strategic military importance, lack of domestic production capabilities, and growing tensions with China; in November 2024, China announced a global ban on all of its tungsten exports Next we shifted over to the tungsten, molybdenum, and silver resources in place and the infrastructure advantages of the IMA Mine as an advanced, past producing brownfields site, located on patented mining claims in Idaho. There has been a substantial amount of capital has spent over many years to advance and build the project by various mining companies, including the Bradley Mining Company, Inspiration Development Co. (subsidiary of Anglo American PLC), and American Metal Climax. There is solid infrastructure including roads, tier-1 low-cost power supply, water rights, and a mining-oriented labor force nearby, which can help fast-track this project back into production, with a low capex anticipated to be ~$20 Million. There is planned 6,000 foot drilling program for this summer, to expand the tungsten, molybdenum, and silver mineral resources, and this will be utilized for an updated Resource Estimate, and the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) due out later this year. The company will also be conducting a trial mining and bulk sample exercise where mineralized material will be shipped to 2 different smelters for processing, and will also bring in non-dilutive capital to the company. Ali highlights that all these factors demonstrate the potential for a readily permittable short-term, small scale tungsten production operation of around 500 tonnes-per-day to start with as soon as 12 months out. Wrapping up, we focused on Ali's professional background, and the experience of members of the management team and board, as well as the financial health of the company. The company has a financing in place to fund the immediate financial needs for this year's exploration and derisking work, and is pursuing the debt package for the capex needed to rehabilitate the mine and move it back into production. Additionally, there is the opportunity to secure key strategic partnerships and non-dilutive financing with the U.S. Department of Defense, Department of Energy, and Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency and those discussions have begun and applications are being filed. If you have any questions for Ali regarding American Tungsten, then please email those in to me at Shad@kereport.com. Click here to follow the latest news from American Tungsten
Fireflies are among the most celebrated organisms on Earth. What is not to love about their incredible light displays? However, fireflies can't exist without habitat and plants are that habitat. Revisit a conversation between Dr. Sara Lewis and me as we discuss some of the intriguing connections between fireflies and plants.

Fred Bell, CEO of Elemental Altus Royalties (TSX.V:ELE) (OTCQX:ELEMF), joins me to unpack the transformative news announced on June 12th, where Tether Investments has just positioned as their largest strategic shareholder and cornerstone investor. We discuss what this deal means for the precious metals and royalty sector where a crypto company can deploy such large sums of capital, and more importantly what it means for future deal flow and acquisitions for Elemental Altus Royalties. Tether completed the acquisition of 78,421,780 common shares of Elemental Altus from La Mancha Investments S.a.r.l. at a price of C$1.55 per share, representing approximately 31.9% of the issued and outstanding common shares. When combined with the 4,360,511 shares already owned by Tether, Tether will now own an aggregate of 82,782,291 common shares, representing approximately 33.7% of the issued and outstanding shares in the Company. Tether has further announced that it has entered into an option agreement with AlphaStream Limited and its wholly-owned subsidiary Alpha 1 SPV Limited pursuant to which Alpha 1 granted Tether the option to acquire, subject to certain conditions, an aggregate of 34,444,580 common shares owned by Alpha 1. On exercise of this option, Tether would own 117,226,871 common shares, representing approximately 47.7% of the issued and outstanding common shares. We also touched on the news out on June 24th where Gleason & Sons LLC announced it had acquired nearly one million common shares of Elemental Altus Royalties via ongoing open market purchases. The rationale from Stefan Gleason was that the Company has paid off all debt, booked its most profitable quarter ever in Q1, and streamlined its governance structure. Fred and I discussed the rationale behind Tether positioning both dollars and gold in their 2 stablecoins, and that Elemental Altus was them positioning using their Teather Investments vehicle for longer-term appreciation, and that they were very keen on the lower risks and high revenue per employee ratio of royalty companies for acquiring more exposure to future gold equivalent ounces of production. The mandate that they reiterated to the management team of Element Altus Royalties was to keep growing the business in a responsible and efficient manner. We spent the balance of the discussion talking about what this means for future deal flow and acquisitions. Fred highlighted the size and scale of potential future deals with their already strong balance sheet, cash on hand and free cashflow generation on tap for this year, and their revolving credit facility, giving them upwards of $80 million in funding for deals moving forward; before Tether even got involved. If you have any follow up questions for Fred regarding Elemental Altus Royalties, then please email them to me at Shad@kereport.com. In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Elemental Altus Royalties at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.

The Joshua tree (Yucca brevifolia) has attained celebrity status in recent times, but that hasn't always been the case. For over a century, the Joshua tree was viewed as a useless and repulsive plant that bucked all attempts to tame it. How our relationship with Yucca brevifolia went from hatred to worship is the topic of "Yuck", in which author Barret Baumgart dives into the history of this species, how it has changed over the years and how climate change and rampant tourism may spell disaster for Yucca brevifolia in the future. Join us for a philosophical dive into what the Joshua tree can teach us about our relationship with nature.

This episode we're covering Friday the 13th Part VII The New Blood. This film holds a lot of nostalgia for Shad and is one of the more historically significant entries in the series. It's Kane Hodder's first appearance as Jason and the most heavily censored in the whole series. How does it hold up? Tune in to hear why Shad and Betty disagree on this one.

Whether you realize it or not, our lives depend on the native plant communities that comprise and support regional biodiversity. As we lose habitat, we lose species, and we lose the checks and balances that keep the living world functional. Scientists are increasingly uncovering the links between human health issues like infectious diseases and biodiversity loss and that is exactly what Dr. James Shepherd and I discuss in this episode. Join us as we explore the links between habitat loss, native plant communities, and infectious diseases like Lyme disease.

On face value, flower colors would seem to have everything to do with pollination, but it is far more complex than that. The pigments that give flowers the colors we can see can have many different functions and how they evolve is a fascinating realm of research. Join me and Dr. Andrea Berardi as we explore floral coloration in two genera - Silene and Petunia.
