Gold miners working in the Yukon regularly find ancient ground squirrel burrows throughout the permafrost, many containing fossilized feces. Researchers analyzing these well-preserved poop piles found they contain some of the oldest DNA ever recovered, dating from 30,000 to 700,000 years ago. Tucked inside were traces of a wide range of ancient animals, including woolly mammoths, grasshoppers, steppe bison, ancient horses, American cheetahs, as well as hundreds of plant species.PLUS:‘Super-good, ice-making microbes' may trigger snow and rain, or help freeze foodWe're a hotbed of mutations, and scientists are leveraging that for our healthGoing out on a limb.

David D'Onofrio, CEO and Director of  White Gold Corp. (TSX.V: WGO) (OTCQX: WHGOF) (FRA: 29W) joins me for comprehensive overview of its 3 million ounces of gold across 4 near-surface deposits, and the commencement of its fully-funded 2026 exploration program.  This will be their largest ever drill program, consisting of 20,000 meters across its district-scale land package in the emerging White Gold District in Yukon, Canada. We also discuss the upcoming value drivers of a Preliminary Economic Assessment in a few months, as well as the spin-out of their critical minerals properties into W2 Critical Minerals Corp.   We start off with the backstory and journey of how their 21 properties were assembled under Shawn Ryan's geological prowess, searching for the source of all the placer gold in the Yukon. The company has drilled around 90,000 meters to date, delineating over 3 million ounces of gold in 4 main resource areas comprised of the Golden Saddle, Arc, Ryan's Surprise, and VG deposits.   The primary objectives of this year's drill program with will be resource growth and expansion testing areas adjacent and in close proximity to the Company's known four gold deposits, both along strike and down-dip. In addition to resource growth, a portion of the exploration program will be focused on further advancing discovery-stage targets, as well as towards evaluating high priority early-stage prospects for discovery potential. The program is fully funded and supported by their strategic partners including Agnico Eagle Mines Limited (TSX: AEM, NYSE: AEM) and Power One.   The Company is also continuing to advance its maiden Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA),  on the White Gold Project, which is expected to be released in the next few months. Additionally, things are moving forward with the spin-out of its critical mineral properties into a dedicated standalone vehicle, We also discuss the upcoming value drivers of a Preliminary Economic Assessment in a few months, as well as the spin-out of their critical minerals properties into W2 Critical Minerals Corp., which current White Gold shareholders will get shares in.   David shares the background of a few team members and technical advisors, as well as his background as an executive with the PowerOne Group; where he developed a depth of knowledge in representing, advising, and assisting emerging companies in accessing capital, advising on mergers and acquisitions and managing their businesses.     If you have any follow up questions for David regarding White Gold, then please email those to me at  Shad@kereport.com.     Click here to follow the latest news from White Gold Corp   For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Flow Metals Corp CEO Scott Sheldon joined Steve Darling from Proactive to discuss the company's flagship Sixty Mile Gold Project in Yukon and ongoing exploration efforts at its New Brenda copper project in British Columbia. Sheldon highlighted Sixty Mile as a compelling exploration opportunity located within one of Yukon's historic placer gold districts. While the region has produced significant placer gold over many years, the primary bedrock source of that mineralization remains largely undiscovered. According to Sheldon, the project benefits from a combination of “legacy, scale and momentum.” Over several years, Flow Metals has consolidated approximately 140 square kilometres of prospective ground and applied modern geological interpretation techniques to extensive historical exploration data. This work has helped identify multiple drill targets across a large gold-bearing trend. The company has also expanded its land position through acquisitions and strategic staking, increasing its control over a major thrust fault corridor to approximately 20 kilometres of strike length. Management believes this structure served as a key pathway for mineralizing fluids and could play an important role in localizing gold deposits. Importantly, Flow Metals has secured a Class 3 exploration permit that allows for significant drilling activity over the coming years. While the company has not yet secured financing for a drill program, Sheldon noted that the project is drill-ready and positioned for future advancement. The discussion also covered the New Brenda copper project in British Columbia, where Flow Metals is evaluating a potential blind copper porphyry system using geophysical surveys while continuing permitting activities. The company believes the project hosts characteristics consistent with large-scale porphyry mineralization and remains a key component of its exploration portfolio. With advanced permitting, expanded land holdings, and multiple exploration targets identified, Flow Metals believes both Sixty Mile and New Brenda offer significant discovery potential as it advances its exploration strategy. #proactiveinvestors #flowmetalscorp #cse #fwm #newbrenda #SixtyMileGold #GoldExploration #CopperExploration #YukonMining #BritishColumbiaMining #MiningNews #GoldDiscovery #PorphyryCopper #ResourceExploration

And while KCIBR is not a gravel ride, the Yukon has more than enough rough roads, back roads, construction zones, and in-between terrain to make a gravel bike feel right at home.In this conversation from our archive, originally released in 2022, then-host Karen McColl speaks with Ian Parker about the rise of gravel biking , or, as he calls it, mixed-surface riding.

Interview with Janet Lee Sheriff, Director & CEO of Verdera EnergyOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/verdera-energy-tsxvv-premium-uranium-portfolio-with-20m-to-spend-9385Recording date: 22nd May 2026Verdera Energy is emerging as a uranium development company focused on unlocking the potential of New Mexico, a jurisdiction that management believes could play an increasingly important role in future US uranium supply. At a time when energy security, nuclear power expansion, and artificial intelligence-driven electricity demand are becoming major investment themes, the company is positioning itself to benefit from a growing emphasis on domestic uranium production.The foundation of the investment case is the company's substantial resource base at approximately 88 million pounds of historic and known uranium resources across multiple projects in New Mexico. The flagship West Largo project is currently undergoing modernization through an updated NI 43-101 technical report, while additional work is being completed to evaluate resource expansion opportunities and future development pathways.A key differentiator for the company is its focus on in-situ recovery (ISR) uranium projects. ISR has become one of the preferred uranium extraction methods due to its potential for lower capital requirements and reduced environmental disturbance compared to conventional mining techniques. Management believes West Largo represents one of the most attractive ISR opportunities in the United States and could become a significant asset as domestic uranium demand grows.Beyond its resource base, Verdera possesses a potentially valuable strategic asset in the form of historical geological information. According to management, the company controls more than 90% of the proprietary uranium exploration data available in New Mexico. This extensive database, accumulated from previous operators including Kerr-McGee and URI, may help reduce exploration risk, improve targeting efficiency, and accelerate project advancement.The broader opportunity extends beyond individual projects. Management believes New Mexico remains an underappreciated uranium jurisdiction despite hosting substantial uranium resources and important nuclear-related infrastructure. As the United States seeks to reduce dependence on imported uranium and strengthen domestic supply chains, jurisdictions capable of supporting large-scale uranium production may receive increasing attention from investors, industry participants, and policymakers.Another important aspect of Verdera's strategy is its emphasis on community engagement and social licence. The company recognizes that historical uranium mining activities created concerns among local communities and Indigenous groups. CEO Janet Lee Sheriff brings approximately three decades of experience working with Indigenous communities in Canada's Yukon and is applying a similar relationship-based approach in New Mexico. Through educational initiatives, stakeholder engagement, and industry conferences, management is seeking to build trust and support for future development activities.Looking ahead, investors should monitor several potential catalysts. These include updated resource estimates, technical studies, permitting milestones, drilling programs, infrastructure planning, and potential strategic partnerships. The company is also evaluating opportunities involving central processing facilities and possible joint ventures that could support future project development.As nuclear energy continues to gain support as a reliable, low-carbon power source and as electricity demand rises from emerging technologies such as artificial intelligence, domestic uranium production is becoming increasingly important. With a large resource base, significant proprietary data holdings, experienced leadership, and exposure to a strategic uranium jurisdiction, Verdera Energy offers investors a way to participate in the evolving US  uranium development story.View Verdera Energy's company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/verdera-energySign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Manhattan Metals - A New Angle on Nevada's Overlooked Gold & Silver Deposits

Interview with William Sheriff of Manhattan MetalsRecording date: 22nd May 2026Manhattan Metals Corp is a pre-IPO gold and silver company with a business model that is straightforward in concept but rare in practice: acquire small, high-grade gold deposits in Nevada that major mining companies overlook, and process them through a centrally owned mill to generate near-term cash flow. The company was founded by Bill Sheriff, a veteran geologist with decades of exploration experience in Nevada and a track record of executing this exact model in the Yukon.The core insight behind Manhattan Metals is that Nevada, one of the most gold-rich states in the US, with more than 300 identified gold districts, contains hundreds of viable deposits that sit idle because they do not meet the scale requirements of major producers. A deposit of 250,000 ounces of gold is worth over one billion dollars at current prices. Yet without a mill and without institutional-scale tonnage, it generates nothing. Manhattan Metals is positioning itself as the entity that provides the missing infrastructure.The company has already acquired a 400-ton-per-day gravity flotation mill which is a tangible hard asset that distinguishes it from the majority of junior mining companies whose primary asset is a future promise. The mill needs to be relocated and repermitted, a process expected to take approximately two years, and site selection is the near-term priority before a public listing proceeds. A smaller 20-to-25-ton-per-day circuit is also planned for exceptionally high-grade, low-tonnage material.Manhattan Metals currently controls seven Nevada properties, including one with a historic resource of several hundred thousand ounces and an underexplored high-grade vein system with only three drill holes completed. Beyond its owned assets, the company has identified more than 50 additional candidate deposits and owns an in-house reverse circulation drilling rig to validate them cost-effectively. The technical team includes a senior metallurgist with international milling and heap-leach experience which Sheriff acknowledges is in short supply across the industry.The investment case rests on several distinct pillars. First, the strategy addresses a segment of the market with no meaningful competition, as both major miners and conventional juniors are oriented toward different scale targets. Second, the model is designed to generate revenue relatively quickly compared to traditional junior mining timelines, reducing the dilution risk that characterizes most early-stage resource companies. Third, management has signaled a long-term intention to pay dividends, an unusual and investor-friendly commitment in this sector.The primary risks are permitting timeline uncertainty, the pre-revenue nature of the company, and the operational complexity of moving and reestablishing a milling facility. These are real and material considerations. However, the combination of a proven operator, owned infrastructure, an in-house drilling capability, and a clearly defined pipeline of assets positions Manhattan Metals as one of the more substantively prepared pre-IPO mining companies currently approaching public markets.For investors seeking gold exposure grounded in operational execution rather than speculative exploration, Manhattan Metals represents a proposition worth evaluating closely as it moves toward its public listing.Learn more: https://cruxinvestor.comSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Good Bobby, Bad Bobby: Evan Thomas on the Greatest Riddle in 20th Century American Politics

“He didn't just say it, he meant it, he felt it — and the combination of the power guy, the ruthless power guy, and the profound idealist was fascinating, and also hard for him.” — Evan Thomas on Bobby Kennedy Who was the greatest riddle in 20th century American political life? Judging from the ever-expanding library of Bobby biographies, Robert Francis Kennedy ranks very high on that list. Indeed, according to Evan Thomas, one of RFK's most acclaimed biographers, this third Kennedy son is, indeed, the most sphinx-like riddle in 20th century America. In his classic 2000 biography, Robert Kennedy: His Life, Thomas unravels the good and the bad Bobby. But, rather than presenting parallel narratives, his portrait treats the Machiavellian and the idealist as the same riddle. Raised by his father to exercise raw power, RFK discovered that mid-century America wasn't living up to its own ideals. The contradiction of the ruthless Kennedy machine politician and the profound idealist was what continues to make him so intriguing to Americans of every political stripe. Bobby concurred with Churchill's dictum that courage is the greatest virtue because, without it, you can't have the other virtues. So he lived a life of ridiculous physical and moral courage — taking insane risks that would terrify ordinary mortals. And, of course, his most insanely courageous act was his last — running for President in 1968 knowing that he was likely to be assassinated. Where have you gone, Bobby Kennedy? A nation turns its lonely eyes to you. Five Takeaways •       The Central Paradox: Power Guy and Idealist in the Same Man: Bobby Kennedy was raised by his father to be the henchman of the Kennedy machine — doing the dirty stuff in Boston politics to keep Jack floating free and grand. He was pretty ruthless about it. At the same time, in mid-century America, he discovered that the country was not living up to its own constitution, and he wanted to make things right, and genuinely felt it. The combination of the machine politician and the profound idealist was what made him so endlessly fascinating. It also made him hard for himself: a man permanently at war with his own nature. •       Courage: The Only Word That Mattered: No word was more important to Bobby Kennedy than courage. Churchill: it's the greatest virtue, because without it you can't have the others. Kennedy believed in physical courage, emotional courage, mental courage. He was a runty little kid at the wrong end of the dinner table — Jack and Joe and Kick at the golden end with the father, Bobby with the nuns and the mum. He got kicked out of prep school for cheating. He was not the athlete, not the golden one. Real courage comes from suffering. It took courage just to overcome being the loser. That was the source. •       Making Up for Missing the War: Physical and Moral Courage: Bobby missed World War Two, basically. He got in at the very end and ended up scraping the deck of a destroyer in the Caribbean, far from combat. His brother Jack is a war hero on steroids — PT boat cut in half by a Japanese destroyer, rescues his men, written about in The New Yorker and Reader's Digest. Joe volunteers for a secret dangerous mission to replicate Jack's glory and dies. Pretty high bar of courage. Bobby spends the rest of his life making up for it — swimming the Colorado River, climbing Mount Kennedy in the Yukon, jumping overboard off the coast of Maine to save Jack's jacket. Sometimes stunts. But increasingly, moral courage — which is the greater thing. •       The Mob, Joe Kennedy, and the Beehive: When Bobby starts poking around in the mob as a Senate aide, J. Edgar Hoover is only too happy to point out: keep going here, you know where it's going to end up. With Joe Kennedy. Bobby's investigation of Giancana and Frank Sinatra starts grazing against his own father. Thomas's reading: whether conscious or unconscious, there is an element of rebellion. Bobby, appointed henchman, doing the dirty stuff for pop, resenting it, starts poking the beehive that might expose him. It never fully landed. But it started. And Hoover used it to blackmail the Kennedys. •       The Ripple of Hope, and RFK Jr. as Tragedy: Bobby's trip to South Africa — apartheid everywhere, the freedom movement barely existing, everybody in prison. His speech: every time somebody does something brave or heroic, it causes a ripple, and that gives you hope. A young Margaret Marshall, later Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, was in the audience. He gave us hope where there was none. That is the ghost Andrew went looking for at Hickory Hill and didn't find. The contrast with RFK Jr. is, for Thomas, simply sad. Poignant. His own family has disavowed him. Caroline Kennedy made a broadcast accusing him of crimes. The idea of Robert Kennedy Jr. is tragic. About the Guest Evan Thomas is an American writer and historian. He was Washington bureau chief of Newsweek for ten years and a writer and editor there for thirty-three years.

(Jens Odegaard / Oregon State University) A group of Siletz Indians in Oregon are holding a presentation this Saturday to honor a humpback whale that washed ashore in Lincoln County last fall and died. As KLCC's Brian Bull reports, it is to help non-Natives understand the historical and cultural significance of these mammals. The Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians (CTSI) sent a team in mid-November to do a traditional salvage of the whale, a common practice for coastal Native people for centuries. Lisa Norton, CTSI's chief administrative officer, and several others will discuss whales through storytelling, in a welcoming and open space near the Amanda Trail in Yachats. Norton hopes the audience leaves with one main takeaway. “Gaining and understanding of what it meant to us as a people, as individuals. And for those who were already connected with the whale, to understand that connection a little bit deeper or maybe understand that that connection isn’t over. And that it will live on in the stories that we do tell.” Norton says CTSI's cultural and natural resources department will eventually decide what will be done with the whale's bones and other materials. Ḵaayák'w Brandon Gomez introduces the Wind Dancer yaakw and asks permission to come ashore at Auke Recreation Area on June 2, 2026. (Photo: Yvonne Krumrey / KTOO) Thirteen canoes bringing Alaska Native paddlers from across Southeast Alaska and Canada arrived in Juneau, Alaska Tuesday afternoon. The canoes landed in two separate groups — one in downtown Juneau and the other at a traditional Aak’w (AHK) village site, north of town, as KTOO's Yvonne Krumrey reports. Áak'w Kwáan Elder Seikoonie Fran Houston waits on the shore at Auke Recreation Area as yaakw (canoes) enter the bay. “It’s going to be good to see family and family and family and friends, and it’s a beautiful day, so the ancestors are happy also.” Every other June, more than 100 paddlers arrive in Juneau this way to kick off Celebration, a gathering of Alaska Native people celebrating cultural revitalization. Sealaska Heritage Institute started the event more than four decades ago. They come to Celebration the old-fashioned way — paddling yaakw that were carved for this occasion. Some travel from as far north as the Yukon. “My name is Ughąts'etsӓna Ma. I'm Crow Clan. We’re from Dakwäkäda, Haines Junction, Yukon… We’re looking to celebrate now.” Ughąts'etsӓna Ma Cheyenne Sparvier-Kinney introduces her boat to the shore. Later, she reflects on the multi-day journey down Lynn Canal. “The journey was great. It was really a healing journey for a lot of us, not just our boat, but from the experiences that we’ve shared together. Yeah, it’s a healing journey for all of us.” Others, like ShaaL'aanee Brandon Ware, are from as far south as Petersburg. This was the community's first time sending a canoe to Celebration. “Gunalcheesh for having us. We are so grateful to be here. Forgive me if I miss protocol, this is our first journey in over 100 years.” In downtown Juneau, three yaakw make their way to shore as hundreds stand watching. As the yaakw neared, Shangukeidí Casey Moats stands up to greet the crowd. “I had heard that I would never know my language, I’d never belong to a clan, I’d never have a name, I wouldn’t know my songs, and to do this means everything in the whole world.” X'ash Kugé ka Yaanasax Barbara Cadiente-Nelson is a council member and secretary at Douglas Indian Association. She was one of the original planners for the first-ever Celebration in 1982. As she watches the yaakw arrive downtown, she says that for Alaska Native culture to continue to flourish, the next generation has to be grounded in place. “When you take a look around and you see our people of all ages and our youth, we are, yeah, and the young people that are singing and dancing, that they’re connected to place, they’re understanding and growing in their responsibility as Lingít, Haida, Tsimshians.” Celebration officially starts Wednesday, with a Grand Entrance parade into Centennial Hall downtown. Over the coming days, there will be numerous events and ceremonies dedicated to honor and uplift Alaska Native culture.

Eight years. Four hundred episodes. And Spencer still can't quite believe it.  For the 400th episode, Spencer sits down to reflect on the podcast that has shaped him as much as he has shaped it and revisits four conversations that moved him, changed him, and that he hasn't been able to stop thinking about.  None of this happens without the people who have shown up every single week for eight years behind the camera, behind the scenes, behind every idea that made it to air. Four hundred episodes is built on trust and a team that believed in this long before the numbers did.  Spencer says these are the guests that educated him, challenged him, and broke his heart open. The ones that reminded him why this podcast exists in the first place not just to learn, but to feel, to connect, and to find hope in other people's stories.  There is a CMO who told their sales team something they didn't want to hear. A CEO who played the organ for the Pope and then went back to managing a quarter of a million passengers a day. An entrepreneur who built seven companies past a million dollars without a single penny of funding. And a father who counted his daughter's last breaths and then ran 109 miles in her name.  Four hundred episodes in and the conversations are only getting bigger, bolder, and more human.

Photo: U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola addresses a crowd during a meet and greet in Petersburg on May 26, 2026. Peltola is running for U.S. Senate. (Taylor Heckart/KFSK) Former U.S. Rep. Mary Peltola (D-AK) visited Petersburg, Alaska Tuesday in her campaign to unseat incumbent U.S. Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-AK). Peltola addressed a group of more than fifty people at Petersburg's Alaska Native Brotherhood John Hanson Sr. Hall as part of a one-hour meet and greet. She encouraged residents to get out and vote this year. “So many of the things that we are working on in Alaska just become political footballs for people in the lower 48 or some administration, and we’re better than that. We’re bigger than that. We are going to put our foot down and not be used as a political football.” During her speech, Peltola emphasized supporting elders, children, and addressing affordability. Peltola's campaign told KFSK she was not available for questions from local media during her visit. Local assembly member James Valentine says Peltola made time to talk to local leaders about a wide range of issues before the event. Valentine says he spoke with her about outmigration in the region. “Me, as a younger assembly member and a young, I guess, community leader, I asked her, and just more of stating, just my concerns about the younger generation retention in Southeast Alaska, and then she’s from Western Alaska, and I know she feels the same way.” That same day, Peltola also hosted a meet and greet in Wrangell, Alaska on a neighboring island. This week, she visited other Southeast Alaska communities including Ketchikan and Sitka – and she will be in Haines on Friday. The Senate primary takes place in August, and the general election is in November. This story was provided by KFSK's Taylor Heckart. An aerial view of the Yukon River as it breaks up downstream of Beaver, Alaska on May 10, 2026. (Courtesy U.S. National Weather Service Alaska) The thick winter ice of the Yukon River has washed out to the Bering Sea, signaling the end of breakup season on the Yukon Delta. Last week, communities along the Yukon River experienced ice jam related flooding. For some, it was among the most severe breakup impacts in recent memory. The communities of Holy Cross and Pilot Station saw water enter homes and in some cases, cover airport runways, but as of Tuesday evening, significant ice jams close to the mouth of the Yukon gave way and the water began to recede. Mike Ottenweller is a meteorologist with the Alaska Pacific River Forecast Center. He has been part of the River Watch team doing daily aerial surveys, tracking the Yukon River's breakup. “We watched the very last little bit of the ice run that was at one point 40 miles long, and maybe even if you go back a couple weeks, 90 miles long at some points, but we watched that clear out to the coastal areas and past those last villages and making its way out to the Bering Sea.” Overall, he says this year's Yukon River breakup trended toward dynamic and was about five days later than average, which was expected coming out of this year's frigid winter. Laura Havameister with the State Department of Homeland Security and Emergency Management says though the flooding is receding, the recovery process is still ongoing. She points to Alukanuk, which experienced flooding on some roadways. “We could not make it into town, unfortunately, just because of that flooding. So we’re working with the city manager and with the SAR team to really understand those, those inundation areas.” From shuttling the team from the airstrip to providing on-the-ground updates, Havameister with the state says the community aspect of the operation is a powerful one. The team concluded their aerial surveys for the 2026 Yukon River breakup on Tuesday. This story was provided by KYUK's Samantha Watson. Get National Native News delivered to your inbox daily.

Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Underground Alpha, joins us for our monthly longer-format discussion on different macroeconomic factors and market reactions to the war in the Middle East, his key takeaways from 2 different site visits to South Dakota and Wisconsin, and investing strategies in select copper, gold, and critical minerals stocks.   We start off reviewing the mix of macroeconomic movers and knock-on effects from geopolitics as it relates to the closure of Strait of Hormuz, the US/China meetings last week, projections around central bank monetary policy options, rising bond yields and interest rates, a strengthening US dollar, GDP growth, rising inflation, sovereign debt loads, and AI datacenter buildouts.      The US stock markets have shrugged off most of these economic datapoints and geopolitical news, continuing to blast up to new all-time highs over the last week. He points out that the CRB commodities index has also been strong lately, lead by base metals, soft commodities, and the energy space.     When reviewing the commodities,  it has been hard to ignore the strength in the copper pricing, which has been up at all-time highs over the last few weeks of May, and Nick shares his approach is to investing in the copper equities.   For exposure to the base metals producers he has been positioned in the iShares MSCI Global Metals and Mining Producers ETF (PICK), which has performed quite well over the last year and especially in 2026. Nick reiterated points from our prior conversation about 2 of the copper developers with good investor engagement, solid pounds in the ground resources, and good fundamental catalysts being: Gunnison Copper Corp. (TSX: GCU) (OTCQB: GCUMF) and Aldebaran Resources Inc.  (TSX-V: ALDE) (OTCQX: ADBRF).   Nick highlighted the recent acquisition of Arizona Sonoran Copper Company Inc. (TSX:ASCU | OTCQX:ASCUF) by Hudbay Minerals Inc (TSX, NYSE: HBM) and how that may be used as a good case study and lens for consideration of other advanced copper development assets and what kind of projects and jurisdictions may interest the senior producers. Gladiator Metals Corp. (TSXV: GLAD) (OTCQB: GDTRF) is a copper and gold exploration story in Nick's portfolio that just released some high-grade intercepts in the Yukon, and still has a lot of drilling on tap for this season as a catalyst. When reviewing why he prefers safer jurisdictions in the Americas for copper investing, he did point out a company like Ivanhoe Mines (TSX: IVN) (OTCQX: IVPAF) is an exception, due to the quality of the management team to navigate the risks when operating in Africa.   Next we got a boots-on-the-ground recap of Nick's 2 recent company site visits: Lion Rock Resources Inc. (TSXV: ROAR) (FSE: KGB) (OTCQB: LRRIF) – The company recently announced Phase One drill results at their Volney Project in South Dakota. The system features high-grade lithium, tin and tantalum hosted within spodumene-bearing LCT (Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum) pegmatites. GreenLight Metals Inc. (TSXV: GRL) (OTCQB: GRLMF)- GreenLight is a Wisconsin-focused exploration company advancing copper-gold and gold projects across the Penokean Volcanic Belt-one of North America's most prospective VMS districts. GreenLight's Wisconsin portfolio includes the Bend copper-gold deposit, the Reef high-grade gold project, and the Lobo and Lobo East massive sulfide targets.   We wrapped up getting the near-term technical price support levels that Nick is watching for in gold.  For now he is not concerned about gold falling into a true bear market, and he is treating the pullback we've seen in the precious metals a buying opportunity. Any short-term consolidation in pricing should be juxtaposed against the fundamental structural drivers for the longer-term precious metals bull market that are all still solidly in place. He's been using periods of sector weakness in the PMs to add to positions in both GDXJ and Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD), along with some other junior precious metals stocks.   Click here to follow Nick's analysis and publications over at Digest Publishing     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad's resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

Houston can feel nonstop, so we went looking for the kind of drives that make the city fade in the rearview mirror fast. We lay out five scenic cruises around Houston you can actually do without sacrificing the whole weekend, starting with the Bluewater Highway Coastal Drive between Galveston and Surfside Beach for beach, marsh, and fishing-town views that hit especially hard at sunrise or sunset. If you've been searching for Houston day trips, scenic drives near Houston, or an easy coastal escape, this route belongs at the top of the list. From there we head inland to FM 149 through Sam Houston National Forest, where the payoff is quiet back roads, seasonal color in spring and fall, and the simple luxury of fewer cars. We also talk through the Bolivar Peninsula ferry route with its free crossing, ship-channel watching, and the chance of spotting dolphins, plus what to know if you're tempted to drive on the beach and don't want to get stuck in soft sand. Then we stretch the day trip north with the Texas Independence Trail toward Washington-on-the-Brazos for farmland scenery, bluebonnet fields, and small-town stops, and we finish the travel portion with the San Jacinto River and Lake Houston loop that delivers big water views shockingly close to home.

Small Cap Breaking News You Can't Miss!Here's a quick rundown of the latest updates from standout small-cap companies making big moves today:Power Metallic Mines Inc. (TSXV: PNPN) (OTCBB: PNPNF) (Frankfurt: IVV1)Power Metallic is expanding its summer 2026 exploration program at the Nisk Project in Quebec with three advanced geophysical surveys — SQUIDs, gravity, and Ambient Noise Tomography — designed to pinpoint deeper Ni-Cu-PGE mineralization. These surveys run alongside a 30,000-metre diamond drill program already being mobilized for Q2 and Q3 2026. Investors in the critical metals space should take note as the company systematically targets extensions to the high-grade Lion Zone and new discoveries across the enlarged land package.Minaurum Silver Inc. (TSXV: MGG) (OTCQX: MMRGF) (FSE: 78M0)Minaurum has reported high-grade drill results from the Europa Sur Vein Zone at the Alamos Silver Project in Sonora, Mexico, highlighted by 3.20 metres of 882 g/t silver equivalent including a peak of 2,423 g/t AgEq over 0.95 metres. Elevated gold and copper values suggest the presence of a high-temperature feeder structure, substantially boosting resource expansion potential within the ongoing 50,000-metre Phase II drill program. Alamos already hosts a 55.4 Moz AgEq inferred resource.Sitka Gold Corp. (TSXV: SIG) (FSE: 1RF) (OTCQX: SITKF)Sitka Gold's first 2026 drill hole at the Blackjack deposit returned 94.0 metres of 1.79 g/t gold including 19.3 metres of 5.04 g/t gold from 1,093 metres depth — the deepest hole ever completed at the RC Gold Project in Yukon. The result extends high-grade gold approximately 370 metres below the existing resource pit and confirms strong continuity with last year's deep discovery. With four rigs active on a fully funded 60,000-metre program, the company is rapidly advancing a district-scale gold system hosting over 5.1 million ounces across indicated and inferred resources.CopAur Minerals Inc. (TSXV: CPAU)CopAur released a Preliminary Economic Assessment and a 52% increase in Mineral Resource Estimate for its Kinsley Mountain Gold Project in Nevada, now totaling 742,000 indicated ounces at 1.11 g/t gold. At the current spot gold price of US$4,500/oz, the project delivers a post-tax NPV of US$147 million and an IRR of 66% with a 1.5-year payback on pre-production CAPEX of US$81.8 million. For a small-cap company with a modest market capitalization, owning 100% of a permitted Nevada heap-leach gold project with these economics represents a potentially significant value proposition.Bottom Line: Today's stories highlight a sector in full motion — high-grade silver and gold drilling campaigns advancing in Mexico and the Yukon, paired with a Nevada gold project delivering compelling PEA economics. Critical metals exploration and near-term gold production potential are the dominant themes.Stay ahead of the market — follow AGORACOM for more breaking small-cap news and insights.

Pierre Lassonde: “$17,000 Gold Is the Floor”

Legendary gold investor Pierre Lassonde joins Wealthion's Trey Reik to explain why he believes gold's bull market is far from over — and why his $17,000 gold target may be more floor than fantasy. Lassonde argues that today's market has eerie similarities to the 1970s: energy shocks, sticky inflation, rising deficits, financial repression, and a political system with little will to tackle the debt. He says those forces are reshaping the investment landscape and could drive gold dramatically higher as investors seek protection from currency debasement and declining confidence in paper assets. In this conversation, Lassonde breaks down his Dow-to-gold ratio framework, why he believes the Federal Reserve may not be able to stop inflation the way Paul Volcker did, and why gold remains one of the clearest signals of stress in the global monetary system.

A great car museum visit is part history lesson, part design tour, and part road trip excuse and the Savoy Automobile Museum in Cartersville, Georgia checks all three boxes. We sit down with Mary Agrusa to talk about how the Savoy has grown into one of the most interesting automotive museum destinations near Atlanta, with modern galleries, educational exhibits, and a rotating collection that keeps bringing people back. If you love classic cars, race cars, concept cars, and the stories behind them, this conversation is packed with details you can actually use to plan a visit. We also preview the Savoy's big September 12 car show, which is aiming for about 500 show cars outside while the indoor exhibits keep rolling. Mary explains the real logistics behind hosting a massive car event, plus what's changed at the museum over the last year, including leadership transitions and the legacy of the museum's founder. Along the way, we connect the dots between the Savoy and the wider Cartersville museum scene under Georgia Museums Incorporated, making this an easy weekend itinerary for anyone who wants more than a quick stop. Then we get into the kind of behind-the-scenes museum stories car people love: how long rotating exhibits stay (about four months), why borrowing cars from private owners can be tricky during show season, and what happens when a rare vehicle needs to leave early for a special appearance. Mary also shares what it's like when GM Heritage cars come through the doors, including the strict rules around handling and even dusting, plus a fascinating Corvette development connection tied to Bill Mitchell. We round it out with Jeff's Motor Minute on a 1964 Mercury Comet with a lifetime warranty strategy that paid off for decades and a 2026 GMC Yukon AT4 Ultimate review covering the 6.2L V8, ride comfort, tech, towing, fuel economy, and what $100K-plus really buys in a full-size SUV. Subscribe for more real-world car talk, share this with a friend planning a road trip, and leave a review so more enthusiasts can find us.

Yukon prospector Bernie Kreft joins Mining Stock Daily for a long-form conversation on mineral exploration, project generation, and the decades of persistence required to build successful discoveries in Canada's north. Bernie reflects on the early struggles of the business, from borrowing money for Christmas presents while raising young children to eventually helping generate projects tied to discoveries like Banyan, Sitka, and American Eagle's NAK copper-gold system. The discussion dives deep into how Bernie evaluates ground today, why permitting and access matter just as much as geology, and how years of field experience have shaped his instinct for identifying scalable mineral systems. He also shares stories from decades spent prospecting throughout the Yukon and British Columbia, including the realities of placer mining, following gold-bearing systems back to their source, and recognizing when a property truly has mine-building potential. Bernie explains why he believes the best prospectors think from the “top down,” focusing not only on discovery but on whether a project can realistically become a mine decades into the future. The conversation also highlights the role family plays in the Kreft business, with Bernie working alongside his sons while now thinking about future generations and building something that extends far beyond a single discovery or market cycle. From couch-side deal negotiations to prospecting trips with his children and grandchildren, this episode captures the deeply personal side of exploration and why the search for mineral wealth remains as much about legacy as geology.______Terrahutton empowers junior mining companies to secure investment with immersive, interactive, and visually striking storytelling.

Interview with Graham Downs, President & CEO, Cascadia MineralsRecording date: 12th May 2026Cascadia Minerals is making significant strides in the central Yukon following its merger with Granite Creek Copper to acquire the Carmacks copper-gold deposit. As major mining companies increasingly seek reliable assets in stable jurisdictions, Cascadia is positioning itself as a prime player with this road-accessible, high-grade project located just 10 kilometers from grid power.Unlike typical broadly disseminated porphyry systems, the Carmacks deposit features upgraded, structurally controlled zones averaging 50 meters wide at approximately 1.5% copper. The project currently boasts a resource of 651 million pounds of copper and 300,000 ounces of gold at over 1% copper equivalent. Because the deposit comes to the surface with clean granite contacts, future mining operations and wall rock characterization are expected to be notably straightforward.To unlock the project's full potential, Cascadia launched a 15,000 to 20,000-meter drill program for 2026, aiming to double the existing resource to 1.5 billion pounds of copper. Thanks to the site's excellent infrastructure, drilling costs have plummeted to $400 per meter—a stark contrast to the $500,000-plus per hole often required at remote, helicopter-accessed projects. A key focus of this year's program is Zone A, located 11 kilometers north of the main deposit. Historical drilling here revealed exceptional grades, including 22 meters of 2% copper and 2 grams per ton of gold.Agnico Eagle has recognized the project's potential, taking a 14% strategic stake to fund exploration through 2027. This partnership also includes a $12 million earn-in option for Cascadia's grassroots Stikine terrain projects. With this financial backing and a resource that is already mostly in the measured and indicated categories, Cascadia plans to bypass a Preliminary Economic Assessment. Instead, the company will leverage existing baseline environmental work to advance directly to a Pre-Feasibility Study, fast-tracking the timeline for this promising North American copper asset.Learn more: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/atac-resources-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com

Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube Channel is back with two more amazing encounter stories. Be sure to check out Fred's channel using the link below to see all his videos.In this episode, Fred shares two chilling accounts from the wilds of Alaska involving what many Native communities have long referred to as the “hairy man.”The first story follows Rodolfo, a Filipino immigrant who joins an Alaska Native friend on a moose hunt near Grayling Creek off the Yukon River. What begins as a routine hunting trip quickly turns unsettling when the men hear strange whistling in the dark, spot a massive shadowy figure, and witness Rodolfo's friend panic after shining a spotlight on what appears to be an angry, towering creature. As the encounter escalates, gunshots are fired when the figure comes within ten feet of them.Later, Rodolfo sees the creature from a distance, only for the terror to continue that night near their landing area, where he reports eyeshine, a nearly ten-foot-tall figure baring its teeth, brushing dirt from itself, and letting out a terrifying scream before the men arrange an early pickup by radio.The second account centers on Alvin and Myrna, an Athabascan couple hiking Devil's Creek Trail in February 2020 with their nine-month-old Tibetan Mastiff. During the hike, something begins mimicking Myrna's voice in an apparent attempt to lure the dog away. Moments later, the animal is snatched, leaving the couple shaken and desperate for answers.Alvin later catches sight of the creature and hears a scream echo through the valley, turning a peaceful outing into a nightmare they would never forget.These stories serve as a powerful reminder of how vast, remote, and mysterious Alaska's wilderness truly is.
