Interview with Justin Reid, President & CEO of Troilus Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/troilus-gold-tsxtlg-700m-debt-secured-for-quebec-gold-copper-mine-6856Recording date: 6th May 2025Troilus Gold stands at the forefront of copper-gold development in Canada, with the company making remarkable strides toward production at its flagship project in Quebec. The company has secured a game-changing $700 million US debt package backed by export credit agencies and led by SOCGEN, KFW, and Export Development Canada. This financing structure, relatively rare for junior miners, leverages Troilus Gold's strategic position as the only near-term copper concentrate producer in Eastern Canada at a time when global smelters face severe supply constraints following the closure of major operations like Cobre Panama.Recent high-grade drill results have enhanced confidence in the project's first five years of production, with CEO Justin Reid noting that "the higher grade is larger than we thought," providing greater certainty for both lenders and shareholders. The company is progressing through Quebec's permitting process with anticipated approval by mid-2026, targeting construction by early 2027. Significantly, Troilus isn't waiting for final permits, having already begun early works under existing exploration permits to de-risk the timeline and reduce future capital expenditures.The project benefits from its history as a previously producing mine with 14 years of successful operation, substantially reducing technical risk. This historical performance provides valuable data on metallurgy, processing, and geotechnical aspects that new developments typically lack. The company has assembled an exceptional leadership team, including VP Operations Andy Fortin, who worked at the original Troilus operation and built major Quebec mines including Meadowbank, and construction leader Denis Rivard, who recently completed Montreal's REM rail project on time and on budget.Troilus Gold has established strong partnerships with the Cree Nation, whose traditional territory hosts the project. With 25% of the current workforce from Cree communities and three major contracts with Cree partners already in place, the company has built a genuine relationship that goes beyond mere consultation. This partnership represents a significant advantage in a time when indigenous relationships are increasingly recognized as essential to successful mine development in Canada.From a market perspective, Troilus offers investors exposure to both copper and gold – combining industrial demand from electrification trends with monetary hedge characteristics. The company's market capitalization has grown to approximately $250 million, aligning with historical valuations of other major Quebec gold developments at similar stages. With copper fundamentals particularly strong due to global supply constraints and multiple near-term catalysts including offtake agreement finalization and environmental assessment filing, Troilus Gold presents a compelling opportunity for investors seeking exposure to critical minerals in a tier-one jurisdiction with a clear path to production.—View Troilus Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/troilus-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Troilus and Cressida continued.

Justin Reid, President and CEO of Troilus Gold Corp. (TSX: TLG) (OTCQX: CHXMF), joins me for a comprehensive update on a key project financing milestone building up the capital stack, additions to personnel with ongoing derisking initiatives, detailed engineering underway, permitting progress, political tailwinds, and more drilling success at the Gold-Copper Troilus Project located in northcentral Quebec, Canada.   Troilus announced on March 13th, that they have secured a US$700MM ( CDN$1BB) project financing syndicate underwritten by Societe Generale ( Paris), KfW Ipex-bank ( Frankfurt) and Export Development Canada.  These lead arrangers will act as the agent via direct lending to the ECA's for which we have an LOI ( Finnvera, EKN, Euler Hermes and EIFO).”   We review the expanded 80-person Troilus team at present working full steam ahead, including the addition of 4 new members of the management team, and complimented by 50 employees of a 3rd-party contractor that are working on the detailed engineering studies.  Justin paints the picture of how significant the Troilus Project will be for jobs in Quebec, with ~1400 jobs over the 2-year construction process, and then 680 jobs over the 22-year life of mine.    This leads into a discussion on the recent bipartisan consensus on the need to streamline permitting and enable the timely advancement of strategic projects that support Canada's energy transition, economic growth, and global competitiveness. Notably, the Copper-Gold Troilus Project was recently identified as one of ten key natural resource developments of interest in a CPC proposal to simplify and accelerate permitting and development. This recognition follows similar indications of support for a more efficient regulatory framework from the LPC who has publicly endorsed a “one project, one review” permitting system.   Wrapping up we touched up on the importance of the recent high-grade infill drill results that were just released from the SouthWest Zone, in terms of gaining higher confidence ounces in the resource and for the higher-grade near-surface intercepts having a positive impact on the early years in the mining sequence.   Southwest Drill Intercept Highlights:   Hole SW-25-688 intersected 2.44 g/t gold equivalent (“AuEq”) (2.03 g/t Au, 2.55 g/t Ag, 0.23 % Cu) over 56 meters (m), including 3.28 g/t AuEq (2.74 g/t Au, 3.38 g/t Ag, 0.29 % Cu) over 34 m. This is the best drill intercept in the history of the Southwest in terms of linear grade.   Hole SW-25-679 intersected 1.22 g/t AuEq (1.13 g/t Au, 0.81 g/t Ag, 0.04 % Cu) over 51 m including 15.39 g/t AuEq (15.25 g/t Au, 0.60 g/t Ag, 0.08 % Cu) over 1 m, and 8.18 g/t AuEq (7.33 g/t Au, 8.50 g/t Ag, 0.44 % Cu) over 1 m starting at 9 metres downhole.     If you have any questions for Justin regarding Troilus Gold, then please email them over to me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Troilus Gold at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow along with the latest news from Troilus Gold

Our previous episode: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/us-resource-equities-poised-to-rally-on-permitting-changes-and-project-pipelines-6275Recording date: 24th March 2025Compass, Episode 9Gold and copper prices have reached or are approaching all-time highs, creating favorable conditions across the mining industry. This price environment is beginning to positively impact equity valuations, particularly for producers adding cash to their bottom line at these record commodity prices.A significant indicator of market cycle progression is the accelerating pace of mergers and acquisitions. The M&A trend has evolved from producer-to-producer transactions to producer-to-developer deals, representing a natural maturation in the mining cycle. Recent notable transactions include Calibre-Equinox, Gold Fields' offer for Gold Road, Spartan's acquisition by Ramelius, and Northern Star's purchase of De Grey.What's particularly noteworthy is the increasing scale of these deals, with several multi-billion dollar transactions resetting expectations for developer valuations. The Australian market appears to be leading this trend.Several cash-rich producers remain positioned to make acquisitions, including Lundin Gold, Dundee, Iamgold, Barrick, and Centerra. With gold at all-time highs, producers are experiencing improved cash flows, making acquisitions easier to justify.The current market conditions are especially advantageous for single-asset producers looking to diversify and grow into multi-asset, mid-tier companies. Companies like Lundin Gold and Torex can leverage their strong market capitalizations to acquire additional properties, following a path similar to B2 Gold in previous cycles.Jurisdiction has become increasingly important, with a growing emphasis on secure Western locations. Recent policy developments in North America are enhancing project attractiveness, with Trump signing an executive order to streamline US permitting and Canada's federal government reducing its role in the permitting process. Finland and Sweden also represent favorable jurisdictions with straightforward regulatory frameworks.Three companies highlighted as particularly well-positioned in this environment include Troilus (with 13+ million ounces of gold in Quebec), Arizona Sonora (a copper project in the US with Rio Tinto involvement), and Omai (a gold project showing resource growth potential).As the market matures, investors are advised to position themselves in promising developers and explorers ahead of broader capital flows. While some companies have already seen significant share price appreciation, quality projects in favorable jurisdictions with clear paths to production remain available at attractive valuations.The progression from producer-focused to developer-focused M&A signals a maturing bull market that should benefit quality development projects, creating opportunities for investors who can identify valuable assets before they're recognized by the broader market.Sign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Interview with Justin Reid, President & CEO of Troilus GoldOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/troilus-gold-tsxtlg-binding-lois-change-everything-6626Recording date: 14th March 2025 Troilus Gold stands at an inflection point as it advances its flagship copper-gold project in Northern Quebec toward production. With a recently secured $700 million debt financing package and gold prices reaching $3,000 per ounce, the company represents a compelling investment opportunity in the precious metals sector. The Troilus project boasts impressive scale and economics, including a 22+ year mine life producing over 350,000 gold equivalent ounces annually, an after-tax NPV of $3 billion, and potential for $350 million in annual free cash flow.Troilus has systematically addressed key developmental risks, creating a clear pathway to production. With $700 million in debt secured with favorable terms, permitting in final review stages, and an experienced development team assembled, the company has positioned itself for success. Pre-construction activities include detailed engineering with BBA (engineers behind Detour and Malartic) and active site preparation including pit dewatering.Management has crafted a sophisticated financing approach that minimizes dilution while ensuring adequate funding. Using a 70-30 debt-to-equity structure on the $1 billion capital requirement, finalizing offtake agreements for concentrate sales, and strategically positioning to monetize a new royalty or stream for up to $400 million, Troilus has created multiple funding options beyond traditional equity raises.With a current market capitalization of approximately $165 million against an after-tax NPV of $3 billion, Troilus presents a compelling valuation opportunity. CEO Justin Reid draws comparisons to similar-stage peers that have seen significant revaluation upon financing completion. Several macroeconomic factors further enhance the investment case, including rising gold prices, global copper concentrate shortages, the expanding margins created by Canadian dollar weakness, and increasing focus on secure critical minerals supply chains.The next 12 months present several potential catalysts that could drive revaluation, including finalization of offtake agreements, completion of royalty/stream financing, financial close on the debt package, final permitting approvals, and ultimately a construction decision. As Troilus Gold transitions from developer to producer, investors have a rare opportunity to participate in a gold-copper project that combines scale, economics, jurisdictional advantages, and strategic relevance in today's commodity environment.—Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.com/companies/troilus-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Justin Reid, President and CEO of Troilus Gold Corp. (TSX: TLG) (OTCQX: CHXMF), joins me for a comprehensive update of the key derisking work programs, additions to personnel, detailed engineering, more drilling initiatives, permitting updates, and working on building the capital stack for the Troilus Project located in northcentral Quebec, Canada.   We start off discussing four new team members on Troilus that will be bringing in key experience on the engineering, development, construction,  and execution on the move to take the project into a producing mine over the next few years. On January 28th the Company announced that it has awarded BBA Inc. (“BBA”) the contract for basic and detailed engineering work for the copper and gold Troilus Project; which is a key milestone on the path to construction. BBA is a leading Canadian engineering consulting firm with over 40 years of experience that played a significant role in the development of some of Canada's most successful and largest gold operations, including the Canadian Malartic Mine and Detour Lake.   Next we touched up on the importance of infill drilling for gaining higher confidence ounces in the resource and for the mining sequence, as well as near-pit drilling where he touched upon the positive drill results forming part of a 1,866-metre exploratory drill program on its newly discovered “West Rim” VMS (Volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposit) target, located within 150 metres of the North Reserve Pit Shell.   We also get into the permitting timelines, where Justin highlights the ongoing work the company has been doing for years, in tandem with maintaining the already fully permitted areas of the Project.   The last big receivables for the permitting being the environmental and mine closure permits will be kicking off soon with a look to receive them back in late 2025, or more likely early 2026   Wrapping up we discuss the capital stack starting to come together and reviewed the 4 different LOIs adding up collectively to US$1.3billion that were each announced in November news releases from the German export credit agency (“ECA”) Euler Hermes, the Finland ECA, Finnvera plc and the Swedish export credit agency, EKN, and  Export Development Canada (EDC).  Justin goes on to explain how they will not need to utilize all those ECA funds,  where they can also strike the balance between those inputs being converted over to tradition debt, equity, forward sales, and royalty or streams that will be coming together to form the capital stack for project construction.  This also highlights the importance of the copper concentrate components of the copper to these other organizations, even more so than the gold, and makes the Troilus Project very financeable.    * If you have any questions for Justin regarding Troilus Gold, then please email them over to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow along with the latest news from Troilus Gold

Interview with Justin Reid, CEO of Troilus Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/troilus-gold-tsxtlg-multi-decade-gold-copper-mine-with-c2b-npv-potential-5431Recording date: 30th January 2025Troilus Gold is advancing one of North America's most significant gold and copper development projects, positioned at a crucial time when new mine supply is scarce and metal prices are strengthening. The Quebec-based project, with 13 million ounces equivalent in resources, represents a rare opportunity for investors to gain exposure to a large-scale development story in a tier-one jurisdiction.The project's economics are compelling, particularly in the current market environment. At $2,000 gold, the operation is projected to generate $150 million US in annual free cash flow, with that figure rising to approximately $300 million US at current gold prices. This scalability in the project's economics provides investors with significant leverage to metal prices while maintaining robust returns even at more conservative price assumptions.What sets Troilus apart from many development peers is its strong financial backing and clear path to funding. The company has secured $1.3 billion in letters of intent from European Export Credit Agencies and Export Development Canada, with plans to take on $700-850 million in debt. This level of financial support is particularly noteworthy and is driven largely by the project's strategic copper component. European smelters, facing critical concentrate shortages due to the loss of major suppliers like Copper Panama, view Troilus as a vital future source of supply. As CEO Justin Reid emphasizes, "Copper's going to fund this, gold's going to drive the value."The development risk profile is mitigated by several factors. Being a brownfield site provides approximately $500 million in infrastructure savings and simplifies the permitting process. The company has assembled an experienced technical team, including recent additions of Andy Frontin as operations manager and Denis Rivard for project development. The engagement of BBA for detailed engineering, leveraging their experience with similar projects like Detour and Malartic, further strengthens the technical execution plan.The project also benefits from its location in Quebec, a premier mining jurisdiction, and the current macroeconomic environment. With costs denominated in Canadian dollars and revenue in US dollars, the operation stands to benefit from current currency dynamics. As Reid notes, "Selling our product in US dollars are costs in Canadian dollars. Right now, I want leverage to Canadian gold miners who are actually benefiting from the current economy."For investors, Troilus offers multiple potential catalysts and value creation opportunities. The company's critical minerals status enhances access to government support and strategic financing options. The project's scale and strategic importance make it a potential acquisition target for major producers seeking growth. Furthermore, ongoing detailed engineering work is already identifying opportunities for optimization beyond the feasibility study base case, while the property maintains exploration upside potential.With 70% institutional ownership, strong financial backing, and clear development milestones ahead, Troilus represents a compelling opportunity for investors seeking exposure to both gold and critical minerals in a tier-one jurisdiction. The company's systematic de-risking approach, combined with strategic importance in the copper market, positions it well for potential revaluation as it advances toward production.—View Troilus Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/troilus-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Additionally, we review again the key metrics from their recent Feasibility Study, and some recent news on the different components coming together for the capital stack to build the project and the timeline to permitting.   We start off discussing the ongoing dewatering work and pumping out of the J4 pit the last few months which will be followed by the dewatering of the larger Z87 in 2025.  Justin then discussed the installation of an alternative solar and wind energy generation system at the Troilus site, in collaboration with Tugliq Energie Co, that will augment their hydroelectric power.  We also touched up on the importance of infill drilling for gaining higher confidence ounces in the resource and for the mining sequence, as well as near-pit drilling where he touched upon the positive drill results forming part of a 1,866-metre exploratory drill program on its newly discovered “West Rim” VMS (Volcanogenic massive sulfide ore deposit) target, located within 150 metres of the North Reserve Pit Shell.   Next we got into the 4 different LOIs adding up collectively to US$1.3billion that were each announced in November news releases from the German export credit agency (“ECA”) Euler Hermes, the Finland ECA, Finnvera plc and the Swedish export credit agency, EKN, and  Export Development Canada (EDC).  Justin goes on to explain how they will not need to utilize all those ECA funds, and strikes the balance between those inputs, tradition debt, equity, and royalty or streams that will be coming together to form the capital stack for project construction.  This highlights the importance of the copper concentrate components of the copper to these other organizations, even more so than the gold.    Wrapping up we get into the permitting timelines and the ongoing work the company has been doing for years, in tandem with maintaining the already fully permitted areas of the Project.   The last big receivable for the permitting will be kicking off soon with a look to receipt back in late 2025, or more likely early 2026 as the final step to then commence the construction.   If you have any questions for Justin regarding Troilus Gold, then please email them over to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow along with the latest news from Troilus Gold  

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for September 22, 2024 is: heinous • HAY-nus • adjective Heinous describes things—such as acts, deeds, or crimes—that are hatefully or shockingly evil, or in other words, deserving of hate or contempt. // The former dictator will stand trial for the role he played in his government's heinous treatment of political dissidents. See the entry > Examples: “‘I didn't say anything at the time,' Fyodor said. ‘But I don't agree with you. I think killing people is wrong. It is always wrong. Even if you do something really awful or heinous. Nobody should get to kill you.'” — Brandon Taylor, The Late Americans: A Novel, 2023 Did you know? For eons, humans have contrasted love with hate and good with evil, putting love and good on one side, and hate and evil on the other. The association of hate with evil is baked into the etymology of heinous, which English gained directly from Anglo-French in the 14th century with the meaning we still know today; its source is the Anglo-French noun haine, meaning “hate.” Haine in turn comes from a verb of Germanic origin, hair, also meaning “to hate.” (The similarity between this hair and the other hair is coincidental.) Chaucer's poem “Troilus and Criseyde” provides an early example of heinous in English: “He rang them out a story like a bell, against her foe who was called Polyphete, so heinous that men might on it spit.”

Justin Reid, CEO and Kyle Frank and VP of Exploration and Corporate Development of Troilus Gold Corp. (TSX: TLG) (OTCQX: CHXMF), join me for a video segment that highlights the primary value proposition of the main Project attributes, key takeaways from the recently released Feasibility Study, and a comprehensive exploration update near the existing pits, but also regionally across their land package.   We start off looking at the site location and infrastructure layout of the Troilus Project located in northcentral Quebec, Canada.   Justin outlines the advantages they have in a development scenario due to them being a brownfields site, in a tier-one mining district along a prolific mineralized trend with many other operating mines.   He then dives into the key metrics in the Feasibility Study released to the market on May 14th, as well as economic sensitivities to higher gold and copper prices down the road.    Kyle then guides us through a summary of the key exploration work the team completed in 2023, and all the areas for expansion around the existing pits and proposed pits, and some new discoveries the team has made that will be getting follow up work.  Additionally, there are numerous regional targets ranging from grass roots geochemical anomalies to early-stage drill targets that are actively being explored and advanced, representing significant future upside potential across their land package.   ** Click here to see the YouTube Video of this discussion for the visuals   If you have any questions for Justin or Kyle regarding Troilus Gold, then please email them over to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow the latest news from Troilus Gold

Troilus and Cressida @ Shakespeare on the Bluff - 7.7 out of 10! Above Average! July 20, 2024. www.latheatrebites.com

René Girard wrote a book of literary criticism of Shakespeare titled "Theatre of Envy: William Shakespeare." The book makes centuries of Shakespeare critics look like fools while confirming the bard himself as a monumental literary figure. This podcast summarises some of the big points of Girard's analysis of Shakespeare.Shakespeare dramatised and reflected on what Girard calls the mimetic nature of desire ("love through others' eyes"), using it as a key plot device in many of his works. In this episode we talk about a few of them, including Two Gentlemen of Verona, The Rape of Lucrece, Romeo and Juliet, Midsummer Night's Dream, Troilus and Cressida.Furthermore, Girard analyses Shakespeare's depictions of what he calls mimetic crises and sacrificial murder. We discover these elements in Troilus and Cressida and Julius Caesar.This episode is Part 1 of 2 (for now) on the topic of Shakespeare interpreted by Girard.

Interview with Justin Reid, CEO of Troilus Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/troilus-gold-tsxtlg-charging-ahead-with-resource-expansion-and-restart-4245Recording date: 23rd May 2024Troilus Gold Corp (TSX:TLG) offers investors a compelling opportunity to gain exposure to a large-scale, advanced-stage gold-copper project in the top-tier mining jurisdiction of Quebec, Canada. The company recently released a positive feasibility study on its wholly-owned Troilus project, outlining a robust 22-year mining operation with strong economics and free cash flow generation potential.The study envisions a 50,000 tonne per day open pit mine producing an average gold production of 244,600 ounces, 17.3 million pounds of copper and 446,700 ounces of silver annually over a 22-year mine life. All-in sustaining costs are estimated at $1,148/oz AuEq, putting Troilus among the lower half of the industry cost curve. The initial capex of $1.08 billion is reasonable for a project of this scale, with a chunk of the costs already covered by existing infrastructure.From an economic standpoint, the feasibility study delivers a base case after-tax NPV5% of $885 million and 14% IRR at $1,950/oz gold. While the IRR is on the low end, CEO Justin Reid argues that the market is undervaluing the true long-term cash flow potential of the asset. Over the life-of-mine, Troilus is estimated to generate a cumulative $2.2 billion in free cash flow at conservative gold prices and over $3.5 billion at spot prices, with annual FCF averaging $150-200 million. This FCF profile is very attractive for a company with a current market cap of just $150 million.To fund mine construction, Troilus is pursuing multiple avenues including potentially bringing in a strategic partner, securing offtake and stream financing, and tapping debt from Quebec government institutions. Management believes they can raise a significant portion of the required capital while limiting equity dilution. They are already in active discussions with several interested parties.The Troilus project benefits from its location in the Frotet-Evans greenstone belt, a prolific mining district that hosts several large gold and base metal deposits. As a past-producing mine, Troilus already has extensive infrastructure in place including power, roads, and a tailings facility. This reduces both capex and development risk.Importantly, the current mine plan and economics are based on only about half of the project's 13 million ounce resource base.

(TSX: TLG) (OTCQX: CHXMF), joins me to take a deep dive into the key metrics and takeaways on the Feasibility Study released to the market on May 14th on the gold-copper Troilus Project located in northcentral Quebec, Canada.  The Study incorporates an initial mineral reserve estimate that supports a long life, large scale, 50,000 tonnes per day open-pit mining operation; a project in a tier-one mining jurisdiction that stands out in the Quebec and Canadian mining landscapes.   This is a wide-ranging discussion where Justin addresses head on some of the questions or potential concerns that have been raised by the market about the lower IRR number, drop in grade from the PEA to the FS, and large capex to build the project, and puts these numbers in context with several other large open-pit bulk tonnage projects built in Canada like Detour Lake, Malartic, Cote', Magino, and Greenstone.   These are the kinds of mines that actually get built and become key contributors in the gold space, and having the copper and silver exposure, as well as the 70% institutional partners and stakeholders, gives the company a number of levers to pull for raising the capital stack needed in a non-dilutive manner.    Justin encourages listeners to think beyond the typical flashier headline numbers from higher-grade underground mine economic studies that regularly hit the markets from other companies, and take a closer look at the details and look under the hood of this study.  For example, he notes how the grade and economics ramp up in years 3-8, and then are stead for more than another decade.  The value  extends far beyond the typical 10 years a company gets in a discounted cash-flow scenario, as this is a 22 year mine life at present and growing.  Justin points out that with only half of the 13 million gold equivalent resources included in the reserves at this point, that the mine life will eventually extend well beyond 30 years, with more definition and infill drilling to upgrade categories of the resources into the reserves.  We also discuss the dichotomy between how retail investors reacted and commented, versus how the Company's institutional investors responded to this study.   Strong Economic Results Base Case after-tax NPV5% of USD$884.5 million and IRR of 14%, reflecting long-term forecast prices of US$1,975/oz Au, $4.05/lb Cu, $23/oz Ag and $0.74 USD/CAD exchange rate. After-tax NPV5% of USD$1.55 billion and IRR of 19.5% at April 2024 average metal prices (Au: $2,332/oz; Cu: $4.30/lb; Ag: $27.50/oz). Cumulative after-tax cashflow of $2.2 billion on base case assumptions; increasing to $3.4 billion using average metal prices for April 2024.  Open pit mine life of 22 years with the potential for future underground development. Life-of-mine  average payable gold production of 244,600 ounces annually, 17.3 million pounds of copper and 446,700 ounces of silver annually. Peak annual payable gold production of 456,100 ounces, 31.8 million pounds of copper and 613,600 ounces of silver in year 7. Open pit mine, processing 50,000 tonnes-per-day (“tpd”); a 43% larger scale operation than the 35,000 tpd processing rate contemplated in the Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) from 2020. An economical and energy-efficient process to produce a desirable gold-rich copper concentrate for sale to smelters, with a cyanide-free gravity concentration circuit to produce doré after Year 1. Supported by an initial Mineral Reserve estimate of 380Mt grading 0.59 g/t gold equivalent (“AuEq”) (0.49 g/t Au, 0.058% Cu and 1.0 g/t Ag) for a contained 7.26Moz AuEq (6.02 Moz Au, 484 Mlbs Cu and 12.2 Moz Ag).1 LOM total payable gold of 5.4 million ounces, 382 million lbs of copper and 9.9 million ounces of silver. Average LOM strip ratio of 3.1:1. Low-Cost Production All-in sustaining cash operating costs (“AISC”) of $1,109/oz. Average operating costs of $19.06/t milled ore. Attractive Capital Intensity Given Inflationary Environment and Scale of Operation Initial development capital of (“CAPEX”) of $1,074 million, including all mine pre-production costs, net of existing infrastructure. Existing and upgraded infrastructure, including powerlines and 50MW substation, all-weather access roads and tailings facility among other infrastructure, reduce capital requirements for the project and overall capital intensity. Exploration Upside: Numerous targets ranging from grass roots geochemical anomalies to early-stage drill targets are actively being explored and advanced, both near mine and regionally, representing significant future upside potential.   If you have any questions for Justin regarding Troilus Gold, then please email them over to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to follow along with the latest news from Troilus Gold

Director Jemma Levy discusses her incredibly successful production of Shakespeare's problem play Troilus and Cressida for the Atlanta Shakespeare Tavern in the fall of 2023. Jemma reveals what makes the play so complicated to pull off; how she managed to craft a through-line for it with the help of talented actors and and wise dramaturgical archeology; the frustration of not knowing any of the Trojan War's inside jokes; the problem of the title; the complication of not knowing who to root for; the play's many shifts of tones; the ability to edit the play and give it a better focus; the degree to which Troilus and Cressida can be considered satire, pastiche, or parody; and the best way to handle “constant awful” – by laughing at it.

Interview with Justin Reid, CEO of Troilus Gold Corp.Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/troilus-gold-tlg-advancing-gold-project-in-quebec-with-strong-financial-backing-3233Recording date: 17th October 2023Troilus Gold has announced a large increase to the mineral resource estimate for its past-producing gold-copper mine in Quebec. The new resource totals 13 million ounces of gold equivalent, with 11.2 million ounces in the indicated category. This represents substantial growth compared to the last estimate in 2020, thanks to extensive drilling by Troilus over the past four years.According to CEO Justin Reid, the average grade stands at a respectable 0.69 g/t gold equivalent for indicated material. 99% of the resource is contained within open pit shells, given the project's Brownfield location. This bodes well for lower-cost mining scenarios as Troilus advances feasibility studies and permitting.New High-Grade Zones DiscoveredSeveral new zones discovered in the past year have driven the resource expansion. Notably, the X22 zone uncovered 2.5km from the main orebody has grown rapidly from 600,000 ounces to over 2 million ounces. The first holes hit exceptional high-grade intercepts up to 30 meters of 4.3 g/t gold from surface. While most of Troilus' mineralization follows a northeast-southwest trend, X22 sits along a cross-cutting structural zone. More exploration around X22 is warranted as Troilus looks to add resources in the future.Incorporating these new high-grade zones has increased engineering complexity. As lower-grade material is encompassed in larger pit shells, the average grade drops below what Troilus initially envisioned for underground mining. For example, the X22-J zone-Connector zone will likely merge into one huge 3 by 1.5km pit. Despite the challenges, Troilus has completed sufficient metallurgy and geotechnics to incorporate the new zones into its upcoming feasibility study.Feasibility Study On Track for Early 2023 ReleaseAccording to Reid, Troilus remains on schedule to publish the feasibility study results early next year. The base case scenarios examine a 35,000 tonne per day operation utilizing as much existing infrastructure as possible. This includes roads, power lines, tailings facilities and other items inherited from the past producing mine.Leveraging this infrastructure is expected to keep capital costs below comparable projects. Reid suggests the existing infrastructure carries a replacement value around $500 million. Adding in typical industry cost inflation, he estimates the initial capital cost for Troilus will range from $600-700 million. Accounting for the infrastructure, Reid sees this as effectively a $1.2 billion project. By comparison, Equinox Gold's Greenstone project of similar scale in Ontario is projected to cost over $1 billion.Attractive Economics from Gold and Copper ProductionThe study will assess economics from both gold and copper recovery. Copper is expected to contribute 15-20% of revenue, although proportions vary by zone mined. The copper concentrate will assay approximately 17% copper, 140 g/t gold and 250 g/t silver. Reid anticipates strong demand and margins from concentrate sales, given declining global inventories. Troilus also benefits from acquiring a prior 2.5% royalty from First Quantum in 2020, further boosting potential profits.Permitting Tracking Toward Mid-2023 SubmissionOn permitting, Troilus has already filed detailed project descriptions with regulators and completed substantial baseline work. The goal is to submit the full environmental impact assessment by mid-2024. Reid expects provincial permits first, followed by federal approval. He notes permitting timelines in Canada is difficult to predict but sees a clear path for Troilus as a Brownfield project with consistent community support.Financing and Partnerships Under DiscussionAs the technical work advances, Troilus has pivoted focus to financing options. Third parties are evaluating the resource as part of due diligence for potential debt solutions. Off-take agreements are under discussion for the copper concentrate output. While some early interest from royalty financiers exists, Reid views this as a last resort given the strong project economics.Troilus hopes to announce a complete financing package in the first half of 2024, after the feasibility study and permitting milestones are met. A project of this scale, at over $1 billion, may require a producing partner to co-develop the asset. Reid reports active partnership talks are already underway, with deals in place at other projects like IAMGOLD's Cote Lake and Equinox's Greenstone. With Reid's proven mine building experience, Troilus appears well-positioned to advance this emerging district-scale opportunity in mining friendly Quebec.—View Troilus Gold's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/troilus-goldSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

This morning Troilus Gold reported their updated mineral resource estimate for the Troilus Project in northcentral Quebec, Canada, within the Frôtet-Evans Greenstone Belt. Total indicated resource now sits at 508.3 Mt at 0.69 g/t AuEq for 11.21 Moz AuEq, representing an increase of 126% in ounces and a 187% increase in tonnes compared to the 2020 MRE. Justin Reid of the company connects with MSD's Paul Harris for his corporate comments on the report and what the company expects to accomplish next in the project's development.

Geoffrey Chaucer's narrative poem Troilus and Criseyde.

Allas, of me, unto the worldes ende,Shal neither been ywriten nor ysongeNo good word, for thise bokes wol me shende.O, rolled shal I been on many a tonge;Thurghout the world my belle shal be ronge;And wommen most wol hate me of alle.Allas, that swich a cas me sholde falle!(Alas! Until the end of the world, no good word will be written or sung about me, because these books will utterly shame me. Oh, I will be rolled on many a tongue, throughout the world my bell will be rung — and women will hate me most of all. Alas, that such a thing should happen to me!)Geoffrey Chaucer's narrative poem Troilus and Criseyde tells a love story — if by “love” you mean romantic obsession, coercion, and worse — all set during the Trojan War.

Chaucer's 14th century tale of ‘double sorrow', Troilus and Criseyde, set during the siege of Troy, is the subject of Irina and Mary's ninth episode of Medieval Beginnings. Based largely on Boccaccio's Il Filostrato, Chaucer's novelistic long poem displays a psychological realism that would make Henry James envious, and, with the matchmaker-uncle Pandarus, introduces a character of startling and often perplexing opacity.This is an extract from the episode.

This past week the opera world was plunged into mourning over the sudden death of Renata Scotto. Originally I had intended this week's episode to be devoted to her memory. But I can't even speak her name without bursting into tears. In other words, I need more time as I try to come to terms with her demise. I have decided to feature the matchless singing actor in the first episode of Season Five. In the meantime, we have another momentous occasion (and artist) to acknowledge: the 90th birthday of the English Rose: the phenomenal Janet Baker. Given that I could probably devote an entire podcast to Dame Janet, and given the wealth of material in my personal collection featuring this artist, much of it rare and unusual, I have chosen to feature this beloved artist in her third full Countermelody episode. There are few vocal artists in the history of classical music who have exhibited greater versatility than Janet Baker; this episode features many rare performances across the entirety of her long career of repertoire in which she had virtually no equal, as well as music in which she also excels but which might prove surprising. Thus we hear the expected mélodie, Lied, British song and Bach aria alongside Purcell's Dido and pants roles by both Mozart and Richard Strauss. But we also hear such surprises as Monteverdi's Poppea (sinuously and surprisingly sexy), Bellini's Romeo (opposite Beverly Sills), William Walton's Cressida (in the 1976 version of his opera Troilus and Cressida refashioned expressly for Baker), and a sublime extended orchestral song by Respighi, as well as the ultimate jaw-dropper, Rossini's Cenerentola! We wish long life and continued health and vitality to one of the greatest mezzo-sopranos of the twentieth century! Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

The power and beauty of Homer's imagery in the Iliad is undeniable, and his scenes of battle often prompt vexing questions about ancient and modern virtues. Can killing and dying in war be beautiful? Is a just cause required for glory to be gained? Is war a courageous way of fulfilling human nature and, ultimately, of embracing the reality that death awaits us all? This episode, in which Annapolis host Louis Petrich and tutor Erica Beall delve into the dramatic contrasts that make Homer's work powerful and war potentially beautiful, invites us to question our own modern perspectives on this ancient text. Those perspectives may reflect Shakespeare's Trojan war play, Troilus and Cressida, which shows the reality of war as ugly, its fabled glory a concoction of poets that charms men into fighting. And yet Homer's Iliad remains a perennial favorite of Johnnies, who often return to it multiple times after graduation. In fact, it is the only text in Continuing the Conversation to headline two episodes.  

“The only thing you can control is what you take into [the audition], I always like to think, like the work that you've done – and as you say – who you are. You can control that, you can work on that. Often we put that to the side and go, what do they want to see? What do they want to hear? What do I need to do in order to be able to impress them enough to get this job? And if you don't get things, you then go, ‘Oh is it because I'm not X, Y, Z?' And then the danger is that you can start to change without even really clocking it, and overtime you can drift away from what you originally were.” -- Giles Terera, Episode 88 of Dear Multi-Hyphenate The industry is not just New York or LA.

Geoffrey Chaucer is one of the most famous figures in English literature, and remains widely lauded for his major works such as The Canterbury Tales and Troilus and Criseyde. However, a dark shadow looms over Chaucer's story: a possible case of sexual assault. Dr Euan Roger of The National Archives and Prof Sebastian Sobecki of the University of Toronto, have just published some new findings that provide us with a new take on this – David Musgrove caught up with Euan to discover more.
