MiningNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Gold prices have surged to record and near-record levels in recent months as persistent inflation concerns, geopolitical uncertainty and strong central-bank demand continue to drive investor interest in the precious metal. Major financial institutions have raised their outlook for bullion, with some analysts forecasting significantly higher prices over the next few years as global debt levels rise and economic volatility persists. In this environment, gold developers and emerging producers are working to strengthen their asset bases and accelerate projects that can respond to strong market conditions. Among those is LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (Profile), which has taken several notable steps to advance its position within Québec’s prolific Abitibi Gold Belt. The company recently released a positive Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) for its Swanson Gold Project sourcing mineralized material from its nearby gold mill, confirmed strong drilling results that reinforce the deposit’s growth potential and continued advancing refurbishment work at its fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill. Together, these developments reflect LaFleur’s strategy of combining exploration success with existing infrastructure as it works toward restarting gold production and strengthening its foothold in a rising gold market. LaFleur joins a strong group of operators in the gold space, including Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE: B) (TSX: ABX), Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX.V: ECR), Seabridge Gold Inc. (TSX: SEA) (NYSE: SA) and Wheaton Precious Metals (NYSE: WPM) (TSE: WPM.CA).

• LaFleur hits major catalyst with March 2026 positive Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”) on the proposed development of the Swanson Gold Deposit, leveraging the company’s 100%-owned Beacon Gold Mill.
• The PEA shows strong economics with C$101 million NPV (5%), 65% IRR and rapid 1.8‑year payback at a relatively low C$31 million CAPEX, outlining a capital-efficient, low-complexity mine-to-mill development pathway with strategic CN rail access near Val-d’Or, supporting a scalable, high-return gold production profile.
• Swanson remains the exploration and development engine behind LaFleur’s strategy, reinforced by a refurbished gold mill only 60 kilometers away about to restart production.
• While the PEA and drilling program were advancing the geological and economic case, LaFleur was also progressing toward restarting gold pour at its Beacon Gold Mill.
• Beacon is more than just a processing plant; the mill is fully permitted, wholly owned and already physically in place, with a design capacity of 750 tonnes per day, with optionality to scale to more than 3,000 tonnes per day longer term.
• LaFleur strengthened its financial position after closing C$7.8 million end of last year as it moves towards restarting gold production and shifts into revenue generation.

MiningNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The most powerful moment to get involved in a mining company’s story is often not at the earliest discovery stage, or even after production is fully established, but at the precise inflection point when a company transitions from explorer to producer. This is the stage where geological risk has been substantially reduced, infrastructure decisions have been made and capital is finally aligned with execution, creating the conditions for outsized valuation re-ratings. Solid funding is essential at this juncture, as it allows management teams to shift from conceptual planning to tangible value creation. This scenario is now taking shape at LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0) (Profile), a Québec-based gold company that recently completed an oversubscribed and upsized $7.8 million financing and is now funded to restart production at its Beacon Gold Mill, positioning the company at exactly the point where upside potential historically accelerates. LaFleur stands out in a crowded junior mining landscape because it controls a rare combination of advanced exploration assets and fully permitted, refurbished production infrastructure in one of the world’s most prolific gold regions. The company owns the Beacon Gold Mill outright, a modern facility in excellent condition that has already undergone substantial upgrades, while also advancing its wholly owned Swanson Gold Project as a near-term source of mineralized material. Despite being years ahead of many regional peers that are still navigating permitting and infrastructure hurdles, LaFleur continues to trade at a discount to the underlying value of its assets, creating what appears to be a compelling disconnect between market valuation and operational readiness. LaFleur is at a strategic inflection point as it transitions to near-term revenue generation in Canada’s largest gold-producing region, sits among a strong group of gold-focused mining companies dedicated to being leaders, including Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE: B) (TSX: ABX), Cartier Resources Inc. (TSX.V: ECR), Seabridge Gold Inc. (TSX: SEA) (NYSE: SA) and Probe Gold Inc. (TSX: PRB) (OTCQB: PROBF).

Disclosure: This does not represent material news, partnerships, or investment advice.

• LaFleur’s near-term strategy is built around a simple but powerful concept: feeding its fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill with mineralized material from its own Swanson Gold Project.
• The Swanson Gold Project represents LaFleur’s flagship exploration and development asset and forms the geological backbone of its vertically integrated production model.
• As LaFleur moves closer to production, the company is taking deliberate steps to de-risk its development pathway through bulk sampling and advanced economic analysis.
• The Beacon Gold Mill is central to LaFleur’s investment thesis and is arguably its most distinctive asset, sitting at a replacement valuation nearly twice the company’s current market cap.
• LaFleur’s restart plan for the Beacon Gold Mill is both defined and achievable, with trial runs of processing on-site stockpiled material targeted for Q12026.

Funding the Leap to Production

The past few months, gold prices have surged to record highs, with spot gold climbing above $4,600 per ounce and major financial institutions and analysts projecting further gains throughout this year. Analysts have forecast that gold could trade above $5,000 per ounce in 2026, driven by continued macroeconomic uncertainty, central bank buying and safe-haven demand, while 2025 saw one of the strongest gold rallies in years. As gold prices hit these historic levels and forward guidance remains bullish, producing gold-mining companies, particularly those nearing or in production such as LaFleur, stand to benefit from expanded margins and stronger cash flows.

LaFleur’s near-term strategy is built around a simple but powerful concept: feeding its fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill with mineralized material from its own Swanson Gold Project to create a vertically integrated, low-cost production model. This approach eliminates many of the uncertainties that plague junior miners, including reliance on third-party processing facilities and delays caused by permitting new infrastructure. By controlling both the source of ore and the processing facility, LaFleur is positioned to capture value across the production chain in one of the most established gold districts globally.

The company recently completed a C$7.8 million financing that marks a strategic inflection point as it transitions from exploration toward near-term gold production and sustained value creation. This financing included the previously announced closing of an upsized LIFE offering with gross proceeds of approximately C$4.7 million, an oversubscribed flow-through offering generating about C$2.2 million and a final hard-dollar tranche of roughly C$900,000. Collectively, these transactions provide the financial momentum required to advance both mill restart activities and continued development of the Swanson Gold Project without immediate dilution pressure.

This funding milestone arrives as LaFleur prepares to complete its Preliminary Economic Assessment (“PEA”), which is intended to outline a comprehensive and economically grounded plan for sourcing mineralized material from Swanson and processing that material at the nearby Beacon Gold Mill. The PEA is expected to incorporate updated geological data, mining scenarios, metallurgical performance and cost assumptions, providing investors with a clearer picture of project economics, benefiting from current gold prices. Importantly, the PEA is not an abstract study but one anchored in existing, permitted infrastructure, significantly reducing execution risk compared with greenfield development models.

LaFleur’s timing aligns with broader structural trends in Canadian gold mining. Canada maintained its position as a top global gold producer in 2024, posting a year-over-year increase in output, with Ontario and Québec remaining at the heart of production. The Abitibi Greenstone Belt, in particular, continues to attract capital, consolidation and major acquisitions. Recent regional transactions involving established producers underscore the strategic value of advanced projects with infrastructure, while rising gold prices add further leverage to near-term producers. Against this backdrop, research coverage has highlighted LaFleur as a potential beneficiary of a near-term re-rating as it moves decisively toward production.

The most compelling moment for investors to engage with a mining company is often during its transition from explorer to producer, a period when value can inflect sharply as an organization shifts from discovery to cash flow. Explorers that successfully cross this development threshold tend to realize significant re-ratings because they de-risk their story, demonstrate reliable production capability and create a foundation for recurring revenues. For many interested in the mining space, entering at this stage allows participation before the substantial upside typically associated with the first years of production is fully priced in. This moment becomes particularly attractive when a company controls key infrastructure, is advancing toward production in a tier-one jurisdiction and trades at a valuation meaningfully below the replacement cost of its assets. That dynamic is now unfolding around LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0) (Profile), which owns a fully permitted and refurbished gold mill in Québec’s Abitibi region and is positioned well ahead of neighboring peers still working through early development stages. With a district-scale land position, an advancing flagship deposit and near-term production plans, LaFleur offers meaningful leverage to the explorer-to-producer inflection point, which historically delivers some of the best returns in the mining sector. LaFleur is among a strong group of companies working to become leaders in the mining space, including Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE: B) (TSX: ABX), West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (TSXV: WRLG) (OTCQB: WRLGF), Pirate Gold Corp. (TSXV: YARR) (OTCQB: SICNF) and Abcourt Mines (TSX.V: ABI) (OTC: ABMBF).

• LaFleur’s core strategy is built around a vertically integrated development model anchored by its wholly owned Beacon Gold Mill and its nearby Swanson Gold Project.
• To advance Swanson toward production and enhance geological confidence as primary source of mineralized material required for the mill restart, LaFleur initiated a 7,500-meter diamond drilling program this year, targeting more than 50 prospects, as well as a twin hole program for the purpose of its ongoing PEA.
• As part of its transition toward production, LaFleur has begun permitting for a bulk sample of approximately 100,000 tonnes from the Swanson deposit.
• One of LaFleur’s most significant competitive strengths is its ownership of the Beacon Gold Mill, a fully permitted and recently refurbished facility in Val-d’Or.
• LaFleur has finalized a comprehensive restart plan for the Beacon Mill, budgeting between C$5 and C$6 million to complete the six-to-eight-month recommissioning process.

AUSTIN, Texas, December 9, 2025 – via IBN – IBN, a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Nikolas Perrault, CFA, Executive Chairman of Fairchild Gold Corp. (TSX.V: FAIR) (OTC: FCHDF), a mineral exploration company focused on acquiring, exploring, and developing high-quality mineral properties in mining-friendly jurisdictions across North America.

To begin the interview, Perrault provided a clear overview of Fairchild Gold’s mission and current focus.

“Fairchild is a TSX Venture–listed company which started trading a few years ago on the exchange, but very rapidly it’s pivoted and has been focusing its efforts in Nevada,” he said. “Over the past less than 15 months, the company has made three acquisitions in Nevada, where it’s really building its home… We’ve been very busy the last 15 months building this portfolio in Nevada, which is probably one of the best mining jurisdictions in the world.”

He then explained how the company allocates capital across its newly assembled Nevada portfolio.

“Nevada Titan, which is the original anchor flagship project, is an exploration-stage project where we’re essentially rediscovering an old historic mining district. That’s where we’ve been concentrating most of our budget over the last 12 months… We just completed geophysics—round one, if you will—with a drone magnetic survey. We’re going to be following up with some additional geophysics to further refine the zones that we’ve identified as priority. Then, we will begin to prepare for drill permitting targeting the second quarter.”

Building on that, Perrault discussed the company’s development-stage assets and why they represent near-term catalysts.

“The Golden Arrow project is very different. It’s really an advanced stage project. There’s already a historic measured and indicated resource which was really not relevant or economic, we believe, at $2,000 gold—but at $4,000 gold, I think the game is completely changed and this asset could be very, very profitable… We’re basically looking at this as a development-stage project where the first phase for us will be to conduct a preliminary economic assessment of the project… There’s a lot of exploration upside with the multiple targets already identified at Golden Arrow, but it isn’t going to be our immediate priority. We’ll wait on the results of the PEA to guide our next steps on that one.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Nikolas Perrault, CFA, Executive Chairman of Fairchild Gold, for a conversation on the company’s Nevada-focused strategy, its staged exploration and development plans, and the catalysts that may shape the road ahead.

AUSTIN, Texas, December 9, 2025 – via IBN – IBN, a multifaceted communications organization engaged in connecting public companies to the investment community, is pleased to announce the release of the latest episode of The MiningNewsWire Podcast as part of its sustained effort to provide specialized content distribution via widespread syndication channels.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Nikolas Perrault, CFA, Executive Chairman of Fairchild Gold Corp. (TSX.V: FAIR) (OTC: FCHDF), a mineral exploration company focused on acquiring, exploring, and developing high-quality mineral properties in mining-friendly jurisdictions across North America.

To begin the interview, Perrault provided a clear overview of Fairchild Gold’s mission and current focus.

“Fairchild is a TSX Venture–listed company which started trading a few years ago on the exchange, but very rapidly it’s pivoted and has been focusing its efforts in Nevada,” he said. “Over the past less than 15 months, the company has made three acquisitions in Nevada, where it’s really building its home… We’ve been very busy the last 15 months building this portfolio in Nevada, which is probably one of the best mining jurisdictions in the world.”

He then explained how the company allocates capital across its newly assembled Nevada portfolio.

“Nevada Titan, which is the original anchor flagship project, is an exploration-stage project where we’re essentially rediscovering an old historic mining district. That’s where we’ve been concentrating most of our budget over the last 12 months… We just completed geophysics—round one, if you will—with a drone magnetic survey. We’re going to be following up with some additional geophysics to further refine the zones that we’ve identified as priority. Then, we will begin to prepare for drill permitting targeting the second quarter.”

Building on that, Perrault discussed the company’s development-stage assets and why they represent near-term catalysts.

“The Golden Arrow project is very different. It’s really an advanced stage project. There’s already a historic measured and indicated resource which was really not relevant or economic, we believe, at $2,000 gold—but at $4,000 gold, I think the game is completely changed and this asset could be very, very profitable… We’re basically looking at this as a development-stage project where the first phase for us will be to conduct a preliminary economic assessment of the project… There’s a lot of exploration upside with the multiple targets already identified at Golden Arrow, but it isn’t going to be our immediate priority. We’ll wait on the results of the PEA to guide our next steps on that one.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Nikolas Perrault, CFA, Executive Chairman of Fairchild Gold, for a conversation on the company’s Nevada-focused strategy, its staged exploration and development plans, and the catalysts that may shape the road ahead.

MiningNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Global electricity demand is entering a historic inflection point. The International Energy Agency (“IEA”) now forecasts that worldwide data center electricity consumption will nearly double by 2030, with AI-driven centers multiplying their energy use more than four-fold over the same period, a pace that strains already overloaded grids across the United States, China, Europe, Southeast Asia and elsewhere. The constraint is no longer bandwidth or chip capability — it is electricity itself. Amid this tightening energy landscape, a compelling new frontier is emerging: natural hydrogen, a geologic form of hydrogen being generated continuously within the Earth’s subsurface. Unlike manufactured hydrogen, geologic hydrogen can be produced without electrolysis and emits only water when used for energy production. It may represent the first scalable, low-carbon baseload power source for AI-era demand. That is why MAX Power Mining Corp. (OTC: MAXXF) (CSE: MAXX) (profile) has become the first publicly traded company in North America to advance a massive land package (1.3 million acres) permitted specifically for natural hydrogen exploration and development, including a commercial-scale natural hydrogen well, positioning itself at the forefront of a new energy class. MAX Power is working to establish itself as a leader among well-known companies that are innovating and leading in the AI space, including Microsoft Corporation (NASDAQ: MSFT), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), NVIDIA Corporation (NASDAQ: NVDA) and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG).

Disclosure: This does not represent material news, partnerships, or investment advice.

• MAX Power has made a landmark contribution by drilling into natural hydrogen in Canada’s first-ever well dedicated to this potential new primary energy source.
• The company reported natural hydrogen across multiple horizons at its Lawson location, supported by gas sampling, chemical analysis and downhole logging tools capable of identifying trace hydrogen concentrations.
• MAX Power’s permitted acreage across the province spans 1.3 million acres, with an additional 5.7 million acres under review, creating the opportunity to evaluate whether the region hosts a large-scale hydrogen system.
• The company has attracted collaboration from respected scientific institutions, including the Colorado School of Mines, as interest in natural hydrogen grows.
• MAX Power CEO Ran Narayanasamy is highly regarded and well connected in the global energy sector.

The Global Energy Crunch Meets a New Resource

Artificial intelligence is expanding at a pace that far exceeds the design capacity of existing electricity systems. In addition to IEA’s forecast, Bloomberg projections suggest that U.S. data centers alone could consume as much as 9% of all American electricity by 2035, a dramatic increase that underscores the shifting energy footprint of digital infrastructure. The IEA also reports that per-capita U.S. data-center usage could reach 1,200 kilowatt-hours per year, greatly surpassing consumption levels in most other countries and highlighting the intense energy requirements of emerging technologies.

Hydrogen is often highlighted as a key decarbonization tool, yet nearly 99% of global hydrogen production comes from fossil fuels, resulting in significant emissions and high costs. Green hydrogen, while cleaner, requires large amounts of renewable electricity and is expensive to scale. This widening mismatch between electricity supply and clean-energy demand is prompting rapid scientific and commercial interest in geologic hydrogen.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features John D. Kuhns, Chairman, CEO, and Founder of Numa Numa Resources Inc., a mining and infrastructure development company focused on unlocking transformational opportunities in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville.

To begin the interview, Kuhns offered a clear overview of the company’s mission and the opportunity ahead.

“Numa Numa Resources is focused on infrastructure development in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, which is currently a political unit of Papua New Guinea, although they want to be independent,” he said. “The reason we’re focused there is because Bougainville has very, very significant resources, not just mineral resources, which a lot of people know about, but also fisheries, exotic timber, and so forth. It’s a real opportunity if one can put up with the pretty limited economic development currently going on.”

He then explained how trust, legitimacy, and alignment with Bougainvillean priorities form the core of the company’s strategy.

“Getting the trust and respect of Bougainvilleans is obviously critical to not only our mission, but the mission of anybody who wants to do business in Bougainville. The way to do that is not to be presumptuous enough to think that what you want to do is the most important thing, but rather to appeal to the Bougainvilleans and ask them what they would like to see… They suffered through a civil war about 40 years ago, so they need to rebuild their economy to develop a prosperous way of life and to hopefully enable them to become independent from Papua New Guinea.”

Building on that, Kuhns discussed how this foundation creates a path toward future development and the company’s near-term trajectory.

“Our mission is to not only develop resources with them in Bougainville but certainly take advantage of the current rabid appetite for the metals which can be mined and found in Bougainville—namely copper, gold, and silver—and to use that to become a public company sometime in the next six to eight months.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and John D. Kuhns, Chairman, CEO, and Founder of Numa Numa Resources, for a conversation on Bougainville’s resource potential, Numa Numa’s integrated development strategy, and the company’s roadmap toward public markets.

About Numa Numa Resources

Numa Numa Resources Inc. is a mining and infrastructure development company focused on unlocking transformational opportunities in the Autonomous Region of Bougainville, where the company is headquartered and where its management has lived and worked for 10 years.

Bougainville, a resource-rich archipelago in the South Pacific, is perhaps best known as the home of the Panguna Mine. Developed by Rio Tinto, the Panguna Mine was the largest open cut copper and gold mine in the world when it operated from 1972 to 1989 before being shuttered due to a civil war, called “the Crisis,” between Bougainville and its parent government Papua New Guinea. In 2001, the Bougainville Peace Agreement ended the war and awarded Bougainville limited autonomy, including its own constitution, by which ownership of the mine reverted to its customary landowners. A majority of the Panguna Mine’s copper, gold, and silver ore resources remain within its walls, making the fully explored and developed Panguna Mine one of the largest ore bodies in the world, today worth approximately $100 billion. Most geologists who have studied Bougainville believe that other nearby locations such as Mainoki and Karato are highly prospective and may contain ore deposits similar in size and scale to those of the Panguna Mine.

NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Artificial intelligence (“AI”) runs on gold and silver, the same metals found in every chip, data center, and iPhone, yet global reserves and refining capacity are tightening faster than demand models can adjust. Silver is the irreplaceable conductor woven through photovoltaic cells and high-speed interconnects, while gold remains the corrosion-proof standard in connectors, bonding wire and high-reliability electronics. In 2024, technology demand for gold climbed to roughly 326 tonnes, up 7% year over year, which equates to about 10.5 million ounces consumed by industrial and electronic uses according to the World Gold Council. As that demand base widens with AI hardware scaling globally, ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) (Profile), enters the picture with a plan tailored to serve this deepening pull on gold and silver through a fully funded, fully permitted project designed for near-term cash flow and longer-term growth. The company joins an impressive group of both producer and user companies, including Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL), Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT) and Alphabet Inc. (NASDAQ: GOOG), that are playing key roles in the global chain that transforms mined metals into indispensable materials for modern technology and electrification.

Disclosure: This does not represent material news, partnerships, or investment advice.

• ESGold positions its flagship Montauban Gold-Silver Project to deliver near-term supply without multiyear permitting or financing overhangs.
• ESGold’s model inverts the traditional model by targeting early revenue from tailings reprocessing to self-fund exploration while cleaning up the environment.
• By concentrating on already mined, historical material, ESGold has stripped away layers of typical exploration risk, including uncertain discovery, extended timelines and capital drag, while preserving geological upside across the district.
• ESGold reports that advanced 3D geological modeling of the Montauban district is nearing completion, integrating geophysical and historical datasets to illuminate deeper targets and potential new discovery.
• Few preproduction companies can credibly claim to be fully permitted, fully funded and advancing on schedule; that scarcity is part of the ESGold argument.

AI Buildout Makes Metals the Bottleneck

As the data economy accelerates, the limiting factor is no longer software innovation but the physical supply of metals that make intelligence tangible. Goldman Sachs Research projects that global power demand from data centers will rise by as much as 165% by 2030 versus 2023, reflecting a rapid build-out of high-density, AI-optimized facilities.

That scale-up cascades into servers, switches and accelerators packed with gold-plated contacts and silver-rich solders, all components whose reliability depends on those metals’ unique properties. This is not a marginal change; it’s an infrastructure wave that elevates materials from background cost lines to front-page risks. In simple terms, when supply gets squeezed, manufacturing demand cannot pause, so tech companies will pay up and scramble to lock in materials.

The pressure is visible beyond forecasts. U.S. utilities have begun reworking growth plans around AI-driven load, while analysts warn that consumption from data centers will more than double globally by 2030. Even in the spot market, tightness has flared: In October 2025, Reuters reported a silver liquidity squeeze in London severe enough to justify air-freighting bars, with lease rates spiking as prices hit records before modestly easing. For manufacturers, these signals translate into procurement urgency, not optionality. When interconnects must be gold plated and solders must be silver bearing, production lines cannot simply delay shipments until inventories normalize.

Electronics and clean energy add persistent pull. World Gold Council data show technology demand for gold at 326 tonnes in 2024, approximately 10.5 million ounces, while the Silver Institute reports industrial silver demand at a record 680.5 million ounces in 2024, the fourth straight year of structural market deficit. In parallel, smartphones alone embed meaningful volumes of gold, with a typical handset containing about 7–34 milligrams. At roughly 1.4 billion units per year, phones are a steady, noncyclical sink, before considering PCs, servers and network gear, along with the added pull from investment demand. The cumulative effect is a tighter materials stack that increasingly defines the pace and cost of the AI, EV and solar rollouts.

NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Artificial intelligence (“AI”) isn’t just changing technology — it’s rewriting the global energy equation. The world’s smartest machines now require staggering amounts of electricity, pushing grids to their limits as nations and corporations scramble to secure clean, scalable power to meet both industrial growth and net-zero commitments. Among the emerging contenders in this power space, one stands out for its simplicity and promise: natural hydrogen. And at the forefront of this discovery effort is MAX Power Mining Corp. (OTC: MAXXF) (CSE: MAXX) (profile)—the first public company in North America focused on commercial-scale natural hydrogen development. MAX Power controls Canada’s largest permitted land package for natural hydrogen in the pro-energy province of Saskatchewan, highlighted by the 275-mile (475 km) Genesis Trend that’s now believed to extend into Montana and the Dakotas. MAX Power has just commenced drilling its first dedicated natural hydrogen well at its Lawson target on Genesis, kicking off a historic multi-well program targeting what could become the world’s first commercial discovery of this clean, emissions-free energy source. MAX Power is working to become a powerhouse among other energy leaders committed to provide stable, sustainable energy, including Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ: TSLA), Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM), Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) and Shell PLC (NYSE: SHEL).

Disclosure: This does not represent material news, partnerships, or investment advice.

• MAX Power has emerged as the first North American-based public company to drill a natural hydrogen well.
• With 1.3 million acres permitted in Saskatchewan, and another 5.3 million acres under application, MAX Power owns the most attractive natural hydrogen land portfolio in North America, an unmatched regional-scale opportunity.
• Natural hydrogen’s transition from theory to reality depends on scientific validation, and MAX Power’s partnership with the globally recognized Petroleum Technology Research Centre is designed to provide that.
• The company’s ability to move first stems from its combination of experienced technical leadership and high-conviction capital from billionaire mining investor Eric Sprott.
• Natural hydrogen could represent the next great baseload energy revolution, a clean, scalable power source arriving just as AI, EVs and data centers push grids to their limits.

A New Frontier in Clean Baseload Power

Global energy systems are under increasing strain. While solar and wind are reshaping the generation mix, they still face intermittency challenges, and natural gas remains carbon intensive. With AI data centers, semiconductor fabrication and advanced manufacturing driving exponential electricity demand, the world’s appetite for firm, clean power has never been greater. The International Energy Agency (“IEA”) projects that electricity use from data centers alone will roughly double by 2030, reaching about 945 terawatt-hours, a level comparable to Japan’s entire national consumption. AI-optimized data centers could more than quadruple their draw during the same period.

Renewables are ramping quickly, but transmission delays and storage limitations hinder reliable grid expansion while congestion and permitting hurdles threaten the rollout of new generation and high-voltage infrastructure. Meanwhile, large tech firms are signing multibillion-dollar energy supply agreements to secure future power for data and compute clusters.

As the search for scalable, clean baseload energy intensifies, attention is turning underground. Natural hydrogen, also called “geologic” or “white” hydrogen, is generated through natural reactions, such as groundwater interacting with iron-rich rocks in processes such as serpentinization. Unlike “green” hydrogen produced by electrolysis, or “blue” hydrogen derived from fossil fuels with carbon capture, natural hydrogen is formed by Earth’s own geology. It offers the potential of emissions-free energy, with only water as the combustion byproduct, and possible lower production costs.

Natural hydrogen’s potential economics are striking. Early studies suggest that it could potentially be produced at very low cost, in the range of $0.50–$1.00 per kg in some cases. Research shows that blending hydrogen into existing natural gas infrastructure is technically feasible and is being modeled as an economic pathway to monetize early hydrogen discoveries. If the exploratory cost and speed-to-market assumptions hold true, natural hydrogen could offer a clean, scalable baseload energy source with lower cost, faster deployment and zero direct carbon emissions when used in a fuel cell or turbine — an attractive prospect for high-demand sectors such as AI data centers and heavy industry.

NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: Over the past year, gold, silver and other precious metals have staged a consistent up-move that is reshaping the investment case for the mining sector. Driven by inflation pressures, global uncertainty, central-bank buying and tight supply, the precious-metals complex today offers more than a safe-haven hedge: it presents a credible growth opportunity. While equities remain volatile and many sectors face structural headwinds, mining companies tied to precious metals are emerging as both compelling and relatively stable investment options. Amid this backdrop, the timing of a mining company’s transition from exploration to production becomes especially significant. It is precisely when a junior miner pivots into producer status — when it has defined assets, a processing route and imminent cash flow — that the upside potential is often greatest as earlier exploration uncertainty has been resolved and asset value starts to convert from potential into concrete economics. One company offering a striking example of this pivot is LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (Profile). LaFleur holds a fully permitted and recently refurbished gold-processing mill, is years ahead of many of its peer explorers who have yet to secure production assets, and presently trades at a discount to its asset value. By combining a near-term producer trajectory with undervalued assets, Lafleur is strengthening its position with others operating in the mining space, including Nicola Mining (OTCQB: HUSIF), West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. (OTCQB: WRLGF), ESGold Corp. (OTCQB: ESAUF) and Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE: B).

• LaFleur Minerals is actively advancing its pivot from explorer toward near-term gold producer status.
• LaFleur’s flagship Swanson Gold Project is a high-quality advanced exploration asset with a strong historical data base and clear upside potential.
• A critical advantage for LaFleur is the ownership of the fully permitted, recently refurbished Beacon Gold Mill.
• The company has laid out a clear and executable plan to restart the Beacon Mill.
• LaFleur has commenced the permitting process.

Sustained Momentum and Mining’s Appeal

Gold and silver are riding one of the strongest rallies in recent memory, and the broader precious-metals complex is showing durable strength. The precious metals are recognized by many investors, who “have turned to both gold and silver because it may provide a hedge in a potential economic or market downturn, as well as during sustained periods of rising inflation.”

In addition, platinum and other metals show similar upward trends, underlining how the precious-metals family is broadly in favor.

For investors, this rally reinforces the enduring appeal of the mining sector. Unlike many high-beta industry plays, gold and silver miners offer a hedge against inflation, currency depreciation and macro volatility. As capital markets rethink exposures, mining companies tied to precious metals may be benefitting from scarcity, rising costs and renewed investor interest as precious-metals returns have markedly outperformed the broader commodities space in 2025.

Mining companies that hold operating or near-operating assets, particularly in safe jurisdictions, are especially attractive. They can offer leverage to the underlying metal price, while also offering tangible asset value such as a permitted mill or producing mine. That scenario is less speculative than pure exploration and more scalable than simply holding bullion. Within this context, LaFleur’s business model, owning both a high-quality mill and a mineral deposit in a prolific gold district, becomes salient.

LaFleur Minerals controls two critical production pillars: a fully permitted, refurbished gold mill and a mineral project within Canada’s most prolific gold-producing region. That dual ownership and integration advantage is rare among juniors. As many peers remain stuck in permitting or exploration phases, LaFleur is positioned ahead of the curve. This progression into the production phase offers both the potential for upside and the relative stability of turning assets into economics.

NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The AI revolution isn’t running out of processing power; it’s running out of electricity, and the race is on to find the next great source of clean, limitless energy. Data centers are devouring power faster than utilities can supply it, straining aging grids, driving up household energy bills and exposing a simple truth — the digital world needs a new source of real-world power. One breakthrough stands apart: natural hydrogen. According to the International Energy Agency (“IEA”), global data-center power consumption is projected to more than double by 2030, to roughly 945 terawatt-hours (“TWh”), and the subset of AI-optimized centers could quadruple over the same period. Meanwhile, in the United States, power demand from data centers may well double by 2035 as well, potentially consuming around 9% of national electricity demand. In short: Compute demand is outpacing expansion in grid capacity. This is why the big names in tech and capital are now racing to secure energy itself — and one of the most promising sectors in that energy race is natural (geologic) hydrogen. Enter MAX Power Mining Corp. (OTC: MAXXF) (CSE: MAXX) (profile). This first-mover North American public company is focused on commercial natural hydrogen. MAX Power controls approximately 1.3 million permitted acres in Saskatchewan, including the 200-km-long Genesis Trend, which lies adjacent to an existing industrial corridor and a proposed Hydrogen Hub, with multiple ranked targets. With its focus on providing energy for AI demand, MAX Power joins a group of leaders operating in the AI space, including NVIDIA Corp. (NASDAQ: NVDA), Microsoft Corp. (NASDAQ: MSFT), Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL) and Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ: AMZN), whose involvement spans hardware, software, infrastructure, research, investment and product rollout.

• AI’s rapid expansion is redefining global energy demand, forcing a rethink of how the world generates and delivers power.
• MAX Power is North America’s public company leader in taking natural hydrogen to commerciality, a potential major breakthrough in clean, baseload energy.
• With the largest natural hydrogen portfolio on the continent, MAX Power controls Canada’s most prospective ground in this emerging frontier.
• The company’s partnership with the Petroleum Technology Research Centre (“PTRC”) and billionaire investor Eric Sprott brings world-class validation and government connectivity to accelerate development.
• Backed by proven leadership and aligned capital, MAX Power is positioned to pioneer the next major shift in global energy.

The Macro Opportunity: Geologic (Natural) Hydrogen

AI’s rapid expansion is redefining global energy demand, forcing a rethink of how the world generates and delivers power. The IEA estimates that in 2024, global data centers were responsible for roughly 1.5% of worldwide electricity consumption. By 2030, data center electricity is projected to climb to about 945 TWh, more than the entire electricity demand of Japan today. In fact, the IEA highlights that “AI-optimized” data centers could more than quadruple their power draw during this period.

This means the bottleneck isn’t compute hardware or cooling systems so much as power availability, reliability and scalability. The IEA statement that “it’s about power now” has moved from a whisper to a full-throated consensus across the data center industry. In the U.S. context, data-center growth alone may drive nearly half of incremental electricity demand by 2030, a striking figure that underscores how compute growth is reshaping grid planning and energy investment flows.

To meet this kind of demand, and the 24/7 baseload nature of hyperscale compute facilities, the industry must look beyond simply adding more renewables or expanding transmission. That means exploring energy sources that are dispatchable, flexible and scalable. Enter the concept of geologic (natural) hydrogen, a resource that until recently was mostly academic but is increasingly being framed as the next frontier of energy. Geologic hydrogen exists in subsurface reservoirs formed by interactions between water and iron-rich rocks and potentially in quantities large enough to rival proven natural-gas reserves.

This isn’t manufactured hydrogen via electrolysis or fossil-fuel derived (grey/blue) hydrogen. Natural hydrogen requires no electricity to produce and offers near-zero lifecycle emissions once flowing. The appeal for AI-era power is clear: a low-carbon, on-site, non-intermittent baseload source that ensures consistent uptime and energy security for the world’s fastest-growing industry. One startup, Koloma, backed by Bill Gates and Jeff Bezos, describes it as “a global gold rush for buried hydrogen.”

In essence, as AI compute demand scales faster than grid expansion, the energy industry must shift from marginal renewables to foundational new supply. Geologic hydrogen could be that supply. Natural hydrogen offers the chance to deliver clean, dispatchable energy exactly where it’s needed, near compute clusters, industrial corridors and heavy-power zones. It’s not just about clean power; it’s about unlocking a new energy paradigm around compute-first infrastructure. The numbers, the grid-constraints and the compute growth trajectory all point to this moment being more than just another energy transition. It’s the foundation layer for the AI era.

• At Montauban, ESGold’s fully funded, fully permitted tailings processing is structured to begin generating cash flow before full-scale exploration ramps up.
• The company has a binding MOU with Planta Magdalena S.A.S. in Colombia, to jointly reprocess permitted gold- and silver-rich tailings, now moving through validation phase.
• To support its dual-track strategy, ESGold has in place its critical financing and sales arrangement with Ocean Partners UK for the Montauban project.
• Multiple catalysts lie ahead as the company transitions from buildout to production.
• ESGold’s dual-track approach, combining a low-capex, high-margin tailings production model with systematic exploration upside, is designed for replication across legacy districts in the Americas.

Gold’s Defensive Strength Before Downturns

Historically, gold has served as a safe haven during recessions and periods of financial stress. Yet in this cycle, gold (and often silver) is rising before a downturn arrives, reflecting investor anticipation rather than reaction. The rotation toward safety is not retroactive; it is unfolding in real time, as more capital seeks stable, de-risked exposure.

Because many investors are already hedging against inflation, debt and instability, precious metals are poised to become one of the largest beneficiaries of global capital realignment. Juniors with production capability are especially attractive in this environment, offering both leverage to a rising metals price and the potential for cash flow even in volatile markets.

Within the junior space, speculative explorers have long outnumbered real operators. But the new paradigm is different: Companies with high potential for success may be those with low-capital intensity models, high margins and the discipline to fund exploration from operating cash rather than constant dilution. These are the operators rewriting the traditional model.

ESGold represents a clear evolution in that theme. The company is fully funded and permitted, advancing its Montauban project toward production while simultaneously validating its Colombian joint venture. Montauban’s fully permitted tailings and remaining near-surface mineralization provide a clear path to near-term revenue. Few juniors reach this dual status — permitted, financed, diversified — while still trading with upside potential rather than execution risk.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Sandy McVey, CEO and COO of West Vault Mining Inc. (TSX.V: WVM) (OTCQX: WVMDF), a development-stage gold company focused on maximizing shareholder value through a low-risk, cash-conservative strategy.

To begin the interview, McVey outlined West Vault Mining’s mission and how it stands apart from other junior miners in the sector.

“The overall mission and vision are very much focused on safe shareholder investment. We look after our shareholders; that is the primary objective, taking a leaf out of Warren Buffett’s famous saying, ‘do not lose shareholder money,’” he explained. “There are many junior gold mining companies here in Vancouver. It’s a great business to be in, but it is speculative and risky… We differentiate in that we are much lower on any risk profile.”

“We are very risk averse. We believe we’ve got a very fine project. It’s permitted, and it’s in the best, safest jurisdiction in the world. It has very robust economics, and it’s simple… Our chairman believes and has reason to believe, given the recent rising gold, that we are in a secular bull gold market that has been going on for a number of years and will likely continue for a number of years. We bought this project when gold was about $1,100. We’re knocking on the door of $4,000 gold. It’s foreseeable sometime in the near future.”

“How do you capitalize on that? One of the best ways is owning gold. Owning gold is risk free, except that when you own gold in a gold-backed ETF, there are quite significant annual holding costs. We have gold. It’s in the ground. It’s very accessible. Somebody could go ahead and mine it. We could… But I see the sense in not building it, because the gold is there — it’s high-quality gold in the ground at a lower holding cost, given our very efficient use of capital… It’s actually cheaper to hold gold in the ground in Hasbrouck than in a gold-backed ETF on an annual basis.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Sandy McVey, CEO and COO of West Vault Mining, for a conversation on de-risking development, gold market dynamics, and long-term value creation.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Sandy McVey, CEO and COO of West Vault Mining Inc. (TSX.V: WVM) (OTCQX: WVMDF), a development-stage gold company focused on maximizing shareholder value through a low-risk, cash-conservative strategy.

To begin the interview, McVey outlined West Vault Mining’s mission and how it stands apart from other junior miners in the sector.

“The overall mission and vision are very much focused on safe shareholder investment. We look after our shareholders; that is the primary objective, taking a leaf out of Warren Buffett’s famous saying, ‘do not lose shareholder money,’” he explained. “There are many junior gold mining companies here in Vancouver. It’s a great business to be in, but it is speculative and risky… We differentiate in that we are much lower on any risk profile.”

“We are very risk averse. We believe we’ve got a very fine project. It’s permitted, and it’s in the best, safest jurisdiction in the world. It has very robust economics, and it’s simple… Our chairman believes and has reason to believe, given the recent rising gold, that we are in a secular bull gold market that has been going on for a number of years and will likely continue for a number of years. We bought this project when gold was about $1,100. We’re knocking on the door of $4,000 gold. It’s foreseeable sometime in the near future.”

“How do you capitalize on that? One of the best ways is owning gold. Owning gold is risk free, except that when you own gold in a gold-backed ETF, there are quite significant annual holding costs. We have gold. It’s in the ground. It’s very accessible. Somebody could go ahead and mine it. We could… But I see the sense in not building it, because the gold is there — it’s high-quality gold in the ground at a lower holding cost, given our very efficient use of capital… It’s actually cheaper to hold gold in the ground in Hasbrouck than in a gold-backed ETF on an annual basis.”

Market positioning and flows have already changed. Miners-focused ETFs and equity baskets saw large inflows earlier in the cycle and have remained a vector for investor exposure even as flows have rotated between metal ETFs and miners’ ETFs. Strategists note that miner earnings power and price-to-NAV multiples remain a focal point for rerating discussions among institutional investors. The re-emergence of gold and silver as portfolio hedges and speculative banks for inflation/FX risk has put a premium on companies that can demonstrate near-term production and low capital dilution. 

ESGold Corp. is an example of the kind of company that can benefit from this macro setup. ESGold’s strategy centers on a tailings-first approach with Montauban in Quebec as the primary near-term development, designed to generate low-capex, high-margin cash flow early. That business model reduces the typical capital drag that delays value capture and lowers dilution risk, two attributes the market rewards in a rising metals cycle.

ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) is a fully permitted, preproduction resource company at the forefront of clean mining and exploration innovation. With proven expertise in Quebec, the company is advancing its projects toward production and feasibility while delivering long-term value through sustainable resource recovery and exploration.

The junior mining sector is notoriously high risk, with fewer than 0.1% of exploration projects ever becoming producing mines. Many juniors become stuck in perpetual drilling cycles, diluting shareholders without ever reaching production. For investors seeking real returns, this creates frustration and underscores the importance of selectivity.

This is where ESGold stands out. With cash flow expected in early 2026, fully funded and fully permitted operations, exploration upside without dilution, and a scalable model applicable to legacy mining assets worldwide, ESGold has emerged as part of a new class of near-term producers designed to thrive in this cycle.

LaFleur’s flagship Swanson Gold Project is an advanced exploration-stage asset with significant upside. Located near Abitibi’s prolific gold operations, Swanson has more than 36,000 meters of historic drilling and a current mineral resource estimate of 123.4 Koz Au Indicated and 64.5 Koz Au Inferred, with strong potential to increase resources beyond one million ounces. The property covers more than 18,300 hectares, including a mining lease and 445 claims, making it a dominant land position in one of Canada’s most productive gold belts.

The project’s exploration potential is supported by multiple gold-bearing regional structures and opportunities to expand the known resource base. LaFleur’s land package has grown steadily, more than three times since its acquisition, and the company continues to consolidate claims in the area to create a district-scale exploration play. This approach is designed to maximize resource potential while leveraging the nearby Beacon Gold Mill, giving LaFleur the ability to fast-track production once sufficient resources are proven.

About LaFleur Minerals Inc.

LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0) is focused on the development of district-scale gold projects in the Abitibi Gold Belt near Val-d’Or, Québec. The company’s mission is to advance mining projects with a laser focus on its resource-stage Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill, which have significant potential to deliver long-term value. The Swanson Gold Project is approximately 16,600 hectares (166 km2) in size and includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines and Globex Mining. LaFleur has recently consolidated a large land package along a major structural break that hosts the Swanson, Bartec and Jolin gold deposits and several other showings that make up the Swanson Gold Project. The Swanson Gold Project is easily accessible by road with a rail line running through the property allowing direct access to several nearby gold mills, further enhancing its development potential. Lafleur Minerals’ fully refurbished and permitted Beacon Gold Mill is capable of processing more than 750 tonnes per day and is being considered for processing mineralized material at Swanson and for custom milling operations for other nearby gold projects.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Tony Giardini, President and CEO of Trilogy Metals Inc. (NYSE American: TMQ) (TSX: TMQ), a North American mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing high-grade copper and critical mineral assets in Alaska.

To begin the interview, Giardini provided an overview of Trilogy’s mission and projects in Alaska.

“Trilogy Metals is focused on a number of critical metals. We have two large exploration deposits in the great state of Alaska. One is a polymetallic deposit called Arctic… Then we have an advanced-stage exploration project called Bornite, which is a copper-cobalt deposit… The real story for us is about the exploration potential in the district and the opportunities that we have there.”

He went on to discuss Trilogy’s strategy in partnership with South32, highlighting the capital allocation approach between the Arctic and Bornite projects.

“Australia-based South32 is a large multinational that contributed $145 million to create a 50/50 JV on the district. In addition to that, they invested $30 million in exploration spending, plus they own 11% of Trilogy outright. We look at that as validation of what we have up in the Ambler Mining District, because they’ve done their due diligence on the opportunities and upside. It’s really about how we move things forward… We have advanced engineering studies done at the JV level on the Arctic project, and we’re at the cusp of starting the actual mine permitting process... which we hope will happen in the near term.”

Giardini also shared insights into how Trilogy is positioning its projects amid growing demand for domestic critical minerals.

“The U.S. has really designated… copper, zinc and recently lead and silver as critical metals. So, we see those as being very important to U.S. domestic supply considerations, and we think there’s an opportunity to bring this project forward at a critical time… When we look at a deposit like ours—whether Arctic or Bornite—we see that it has the potential to provide domestic sources of these critical metals to the U.S. economy.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Tony Giardini, President and CEO of Trilogy Metals, for a conversation on unlocking Alaska’s copper resources, advancing strategic partnerships, and fueling America’s critical minerals supply chain.

About Trilogy Metals

Trilogy Metals Inc. is a metal exploration and development company holding a 50 percent interest in Ambler Metals LLC, which has a 100 percent interest in the Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects in northwestern Alaska. On December 19, 2019, South32, a globally diversified mining and metals company, exercised its option to form a 50/50 joint venture with Trilogy. The UKMP is located within the Ambler Mining District which is one of the richest and most-prospective known copper-dominant districts in the world. It hosts world-class polymetallic volcanogenic massive sulphide ("VMS") deposits that contain copper, zinc, lead, gold and silver, and carbonate replacement deposits which have been found to host high-grade copper and cobalt mineralization. Exploration efforts have been focused on two deposits in the Ambler Mining District – the Arctic VMS deposit and the Bornite carbonate replacement deposit. Both deposits are located within a land package that spans approximately 190,929 hectares. Ambler Metals has an agreement with NANA Regional Corporation, Inc., an Alaska Native Corporation that provides a framework for the exploration and potential development of the Ambler Mining District in cooperation with local communities. Trilogy's vision is to develop the Ambler Mining District into a premier North American copper producer while protecting and respecting subsistence livelihoods.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Tony Giardini, President and CEO of Trilogy Metals Inc. (NYSE American: TMQ) (TSX: TMQ), a North American mineral exploration and development company focused on advancing high-grade copper and critical mineral assets in Alaska.

To begin the interview, Giardini provided an overview of Trilogy’s mission and projects in Alaska.

“Trilogy Metals is focused on a number of critical metals. We have two large exploration deposits in the great state of Alaska. One is a polymetallic deposit called Arctic… Then we have an advanced-stage exploration project called Bornite, which is a copper-cobalt deposit… The real story for us is about the exploration potential in the district and the opportunities that we have there.”

He went on to discuss Trilogy’s strategy in partnership with South32, highlighting the capital allocation approach between the Arctic and Bornite projects.

“Australia-based South32 is a large multinational that contributed $145 million to create a 50/50 JV on the district. In addition to that, they invested $30 million in exploration spending, plus they own 11% of Trilogy outright. We look at that as validation of what we have up in the Ambler Mining District, because they’ve done their due diligence on the opportunities and upside. It’s really about how we move things forward… We have advanced engineering studies done at the JV level on the Arctic project, and we’re at the cusp of starting the actual mine permitting process... which we hope will happen in the near term.”

Giardini also shared insights into how Trilogy is positioning its projects amid growing demand for domestic critical minerals.

“The U.S. has really designated… copper, zinc and recently lead and silver as critical metals. So, we see those as being very important to U.S. domestic supply considerations, and we think there’s an opportunity to bring this project forward at a critical time… When we look at a deposit like ours—whether Arctic or Bornite—we see that it has the potential to provide domestic sources of these critical metals to the U.S. economy.”

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Pat Ryan, P.Eng., Chairman and CEO of Ucore Rare Metals Inc. (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF), a critical metals technology company developing scalable rare earth element (“REE”) refining infrastructure in North America.

To begin the interview, Ryan explained how his background helped shape Ucore’s mission.

“As I looked more closely at the supply chains for electric vehicles, I realized there are no metallic supply chains to feed these particular vehicles. I was a board member of Ucore at that time… and encouraged the board to look at actually building manufacturing plants, processing, and moving forward… Rare earth is just another market, but a very new one, and it needs a 21st-century digital manufacturing approach.”

He then detailed how Ucore’s refining platform gained validation from the U.S. government.

“The U.S. DoD put a bid out… to find the technology for processing and refining in the mid-market, something that’s very competitive. We had a $4 million U.S. contract to run our commercial demonstration plant using multiple feedstocks… generating heavy and light rare earth products and running thousands of hours. The DoD came to our Kingston plant and to central Louisiana, where we’re essentially doing a copy and paste of Kingston, and they really liked what they saw… They invested $18.4 million in mid-May, and by the end of May, we had a groundbreaking in Louisiana.”

Finally, he described how Ucore is transitioning from early-stage discussions to integrated commercial partnerships, with direct involvement from the U.S. Department of Defense.

“We have an MOU. Now, we’re moving to definitive agreements. Not just one-off transactions, but multiple-prong opportunities to bring supply back to the Western world. We’re putting those building blocks together to create definitive partnerships that allow us to get the job done very effectively. We continue to discuss with DoD on a biweekly basis… what the next part of their journey looks like.”

Join IBN’s Stuart Smith and Pat Ryan, Chairman and CEO of Ucore Rare Metals, for a conversation on rebuilding rare earth infrastructure, advancing digital refining, and leading the Western critical minerals race.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals Inc. (NYSE American: SVM) (TSX: SVM), a Canadian mining company producing silver, gold, lead, and zinc, with a long history of profitability and growth.

During the interview, Shaver shared how Silvercorp is evolving beyond its silver-focused roots into a diversified, multi-asset producer.

“We’re a growth company in transition. Our recent acquisition brought us into Ecuador, and we remain very active in pursuing new opportunities to grow the company and expand our asset base… We really like to deliver for our shareholders — to be a multi-asset, multi-jurisdiction company within a couple of years.”

He went on to explain the financial strategy behind Silvercorp’s current expansion efforts.

“The roughly $240 million in capital estimated for El Domo… $175 [million] of that will be funded by Wheaton. There’s a stream arrangement in place… The balance — $75 million — we can easily fund that out of cash on hand. So, that will allow us to continue to look at new targets for growth as well as pay our dividend, which arguably is a bit symbolic at present… but it’s really meant to show that good times and bad in the silver market, we intend to give our shareholders a return on their investment.”

Shaver also emphasized what sets the company apart from peers in the sector.

“In addition to being a good operator and a consistent operator with a long track record… we’ve shown through our M&A efforts really a good nose for surfacing value. We’ve seen a number of targets that we thought were good acquisition targets. We didn’t always get them because we didn’t chase them and overpay, but I think we’ve done a good job at finding good opportunities and trying to bring them into the company for our shareholders.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Lon Shaver, President of Silvercorp Metals, for a conversation on building a multi-asset portfolio, managing capital efficiency, and delivering value across cycles.

“We’re an interesting company in the fact that we have an advanced gold project in Québec’s Abitibi Gold Belt and a nearby permitted mill,” he said. “That puts us in a strong position as a near-term gold producer.”

Malhi, who is also the founder of Bullrun Capital, then detailed how LaFleur acquired its flagship assets and how the company is positioned for rapid development.

“Two years ago, I started looking at the opportunities in the gold mining sector. I didn’t want to go and acquire a grassroots project… but I did come across a bankruptcy,” he explained. “We were able to win a bid on the Beacon Gold Mill, which Monarch had invested $20 million into upgrading. It’s fully permitted and ready to rock. We also acquired a nearby gold deposit called the Swanson Gold Deposit… We’ve turned that project into LaFleur Minerals. Now, with gold prices surging, the economics have changed phenomenally — and we may look at producing not just from our own property, but also from others in the region.”

Ténière closed by emphasizing LaFleur’s accelerated timeline and production-ready infrastructure.

“We have a mining lease at Swanson, which allows us to get into production much faster than we could otherwise,” he said. “With gold hitting over $3,000 an ounce, it makes a lot of these deposits very economically viable… It’s an exciting time to be in gold, and we’re in a great position to move quickly.”

Join IBN’s Stuart Smith for a conversation with LaFleur Minerals Chairman Kal Malhi and CEO Paul Ténière on restarting gold production in Québec, scaling a district-scale asset, and accelerating into the gold producer category.

About LaFleur Minerals Inc.

LaFleur Minerals Inc. is focused on the development of district-scale gold projects in the Abitibi Gold Belt near Val-d'Or, Québec. The company’s mission is to advance mining projects with a laser focus on its resource-stage Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill, which have significant potential to deliver long-term value.

The Swanson Gold Project is approximately 16,600 hectares (166 km2) in size and includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining. LaFleur has recently consolidated a large land package along a major structural break that hosts the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits and several other showings which make up the Swanson Gold Project. The Swanson Gold Project is easily accessible by road with a rail line running through the property allowing direct access to several nearby gold mills, further enhancing its development potential.

LaFleur Minerals' fully-refurbished and permitted Beacon Gold Mill is capable of processing over 750 tonnes per day and is being considered for processing mineralized material at Swanson and for custom milling operations for other nearby gold projects.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Kimberly Ann, Founder, CEO, President & Executive Chair of Lahontan Gold Corp. (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF), a Canadian mine development and exploration company advancing a portfolio of gold and silver assets in Nevada’s Walker Lane, one of the world’s most productive and mining-friendly regions.

To begin the interview, Ann outlined Lahontan Gold’s mission and strategic approach in Nevada’s Walker Lane.

“At Lahontan Gold, we’re doing something so special,” she said. “I have a very extensive background in running successful businesses across the board, and this one is just a perfect storm of great assets, the best jurisdiction in the world, and the best timing with our new administration that’s so pro-mining. Gold is finally on the critical metals list, and we have a past producer — perfect asset — that I’m so excited to tell everybody about.”

Ann went on to describe the Santa Fe Mine’s history and potential.

“The Santa Fe mine was a past producer from 1988 to 1994, open-pit style heap leach. It’s the lowest cost style of operation you can have. It shut down from pure economics, because gold was at $340. They left a lot of gold and silver in the ground,” she explained. “Right now, we have 2 million ounces that we’re reporting to the world. We obviously have a lot more internally that we’re working on, but really, it’s a very simple story in that we have enough to have a mine again now, and we’re fast-tracking it.”

She also emphasized her business-first mindset and the importance of focusing on outcomes.

“I’m not emotional about it. I’m not in love with the project. I’m not thinking of anything but making money and making the company successful,” she added. “I have a unique perspective in that, yes, I understand the geology. Yes, I understand the engineering background. But, more importantly, I understand the business and how to get to the finish line.”

Join IBN’s Stuart Smith and Kimberly Ann, Founder, CEO, President & Executive Chair of Lahontan Gold, for a discussion on unlocking the potential of past-producing mines, leveraging Nevada’s mining advantages, and driving shareholder-focused growth.

Gold’s meteoric rally, fueled by waning confidence in U.S. fiscal policy and soaring inflation, has not only pushed prices past the historic US$3,300 per ounce mark in early 2025 but also opened the door to even more ambitious forecasts. Some analysts now predict a climb to US$4,000 within the next 12 to 18 months. With this in mind, gold-focused equities and Canadian gold producers are gaining renewed attention for offering high leverage to rising bullion prices within a stable jurisdiction known for quality deposits and operational reliability. Among these, LaFleur Minerals Inc. (CSE: LFLR) (OTCQB: LFLRF) (FSE: 3WK0) (Profile) stands out with its fully permitted gold mill situated in Canada’s most prolific gold-producing region — a combination that aligns perfectly with today’s market demands, providing investors both near-term production potential and exposure to the upside of surging gold. LaFleur Minerals is laser focused on positioning itself as a strong contender in a space known for quality gold-mining operations, including Barrick Mining Corporation (NYSE: B) (TSX: ABX), Royal Gold (NASDAQ: RGLD), Nicola Mining (TSX.V: NIM) (OTCQB: HUSIF) and ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF).

About LaFleur Minerals Inc.

LaFleur Minerals Inc. is focused on the development of district-scale gold projects in the Abitibi Gold Belt near Val-d’Or, Québec. Our mission is to advance mining projects with a laser focus on our resource-stage Swanson Gold Project and the Beacon Gold Mill, which have significant potential to deliver long-term value. The Swanson Gold Project is approximately 16,600 hectares (166 km2) in size and includes several prospects rich in gold and critical metals previously held by Monarch Mining, Abcourt Mines, and Globex Mining. LaFleur has recently consolidated a large land package along a major structural break that hosts the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits and several other showings which make up the Swanson Gold Project. The Swanson Gold Project is easily accessible by road with a rail line running through the property allowing direct access to several nearby gold mills, further enhancing its development potential. Lafleur Minerals’ fully-refurbished and permitted Beacon Gold Mill is capable of processing over 750 tonnes per day and is being considered for processing mineralized material at Swanson and for custom milling operations for other nearby gold projects.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Peter Espig, CEO and Director of Nicola Mining Inc. (TSX.V: NIM) (OTCQB: HUSIF), a junior resource company focused on monetizing high-grade mineral assets in British Columbia.

To begin the interview, Peter outlined Nicola Mining’s mission: delivering shareholder exposure to gold, silver and copper while maintaining a disciplined, cash-flow-first approach.

“We aim to provide shareholders exposure to gold, silver and copper with a strong foundation of cash flow,” he said, citing his background in distressed debt. “We’ve worked hard to get the company where it is today. We have all our permits, we’re producing, and we’re generating operating cash flow that reduces the need for dilution.” He added that Nicola still offers “the upside of an explorer” through its copper asset and is now actively monetizing — a position many peers haven’t yet reached.

Peter went on to discuss the company’s infrastructure advantage: owning and operating British Columbia’s only provincially permitted mill capable of processing gold and silver from across the province.

“Our permit reads: Nicola Mining has the right to accept and process gold and silver mill feed from anywhere in British Columbia,” he explained. “There’s no need for additional testing or consultation — we’ve already completed that.” Production at Nicola’s Merritt-based mill resumed in June 2025, marking a shift to consistent operations at the centrally located New Craigmont site, which also hosts the company’s copper exploration project.”

He also framed Nicola as a hub for smaller high-grade projects that can’t justify mill construction. “We’re the airport, and all those high-grade projects not backed by billion-dollar companies are the airplanes,” he said. “They need a place to land, and that material comes to us.” As cash flow scales, Nicola plans to take a measured acquisition approach, targeting near-production assets that can be integrated over time to build long-term value around its milling infrastructure.

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Peter Espig, CEO and Director of Nicola Mining, for a discussion on ramping up gold production, advancing key B.C. assets and building long-term value through disciplined growth.

Earlier this year, ESGold closed on C$3.45 million financing earmarked to advance its Montauban Project toward production. This successful closing marked a pivotal point for the company, providing the necessary capital to initiate mill circuit construction and mobilize the final phase of development at Montauban. Located in Quebec, Montauban is a past-producing gold-silver mine with surface and underground mineralization and more than 900,000 tons of historical tailings.

With much of the funding in place, ESGold has already begun on-site construction and assembly at Montauban, a key milestone that moves the company into the execution phase of its accelerated production strategy, targeting near-term cash flow within the next six months. The construction and mobilization stage is expected to last about a month. According to the company, this is the final major phase of infrastructure development before production begins, transforming Montauban from a legacy mine site into one of Canada’s next active gold and silver operations.

“This is the moment we’ve been working toward — breaking ground and moving decisively toward gold and silver production,” a member of ESGold’s leadership team stated in a news release. “Our team, contractors and stakeholders are aligned and energized to deliver on our strategy. We are building a clean, scalable and modern operation that reflects the new era of mining in Quebec. With production targeted for Q4, Montauban is on track to become a model for sustainable redevelopment of legacy mines.”

About ESGold Corp.

ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) is a fully permitted, preproduction resource company at the forefront of clean mining and exploration innovation. With proven expertise in Quebec, the company is advancing its projects toward production and feasibility while delivering long-term value through sustainable resource recovery and exploration. ESGold’s flagship Montauban property, located 80 kilometers west of Quebec City, serves as a model for responsible mining practices, combining near-term production with district-scale discovery potential.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Brad Kitchen, President and Director of ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF), a fully permitted, pre-production resource company on a clear path to near-term gold and silver production.

To begin the interview, Kitchen outlined ESGold’s unique approach—prioritizing near-term production from historic tailings to fund future exploration and long-term growth.

“We’re different from every other junior resource company in that we are looking for gold and silver, but we’re actually going to be in production first and then follow up with our exploration,” Kitchen said. “We’re in a very unique situation in that we’re fully permitted… We’re actually taking the revenue from tailings. Montauban was a mine for 80 years. There’s roughly $100 million worth of tailings sitting on the ground that needs to be reprocessed.”

Kitchen noted that while production is still ramping up, ESGold’s return to Montauban is already having an impact on the local community.

“Not that we even started in production yet, but there’s that small little element that we’ve already brought to the community that we want to continue,” he added. “We’re not generating a ton of jobs—it’ll be about 20 to 30—but they’re good, solid jobs, and the numbers will likely increase as we do more exploration and potentially do some mining on the site.”

Kitchen next detailed his goals for the company.

“We have three key components. One is to get into production; two is to explore and develop a model of the resource; and three is to make sure everybody knows about it,” Kitchen said. “We’ve developed an extremely good operations plan. We’ve mirrored that with our marketing plan, so people will be aware of what we’re doing. This isn’t rocket science. It’s taking an existing product and extracting so much value—especially in today’s market.”

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Brad Kitchen, President and Director of ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF), a fully permitted, pre-production resource company on a clear path to near-term gold and silver production.

To begin the interview, Kitchen outlined ESGold’s unique approach—prioritizing near-term production from historic tailings to fund future exploration and long-term growth.

“We’re different from every other junior resource company in that we are looking for gold and silver, but we’re actually going to be in production first and then follow up with our exploration,” Kitchen said. “We’re in a very unique situation in that we’re fully permitted… We’re actually taking the revenue from tailings. Montauban was a mine for 80 years. There’s roughly $100 million worth of tailings sitting on the ground that needs to be reprocessed.”

Kitchen noted that while production is still ramping up, ESGold’s return to Montauban is already having an impact on the local community.

“Not that we even started in production yet, but there’s that small little element that we’ve already brought to the community that we want to continue,” he added. “We’re not generating a ton of jobs—it’ll be about 20 to 30—but they’re good, solid jobs, and the numbers will likely increase as we do more exploration and potentially do some mining on the site.”

Kitchen next detailed his goals for the company.

“We have three key components. One is to get into production; two is to explore and develop a model of the resource; and three is to make sure everybody knows about it,” Kitchen said. “We’ve developed an extremely good operations plan. We’ve mirrored that with our marketing plan, so people will be aware of what we’re doing. This isn’t rocket science.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Frank R. Hallam, Co-Founder, Director, President, and CEO of Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM), operator of the Waterberg Project, a bulk underground palladium and platinum deposit located in South Africa.

To begin the interview, Hallam provided an overview of the platinum industry in South Africa and explained why the Waterberg Project offers such promise.

“The platinum industry in South Africa provides about 70% of the world's platinum. It's mined primarily in two mineralized layers, or reefs, as we call them – the Merensky Reef and the UG2 Reef,” he said. “They're typically mined at about one-to-three-meters thick, and they're getting deeper now. They’ve been mining in these zones for 50 to 100 years. It’s very labor intensive and dangerous work.”

“We discovered the Waterberg deposit in 2011. It’s a brand-new discovery. It’s shallow, at about 140 meters vertical, but the most important feature about it is that it’s thick – over 100 meters thick in places. Because it’s shallow and thick, we can access the deposit with declines, kind of like a tunnel going into a mountain rather than a vertical shaft.”

“You can use machinery, remote mucking, large trucks, and multiple drill jumbos. All of these things are kind of like force multipliers for men. We can mine with far fewer people. We can keep them away from the rock face and let the machines do the work. It’s very efficient, low cost, and safe.”

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Nicole Brewster, President and CEO of Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR) (OTCQB: RFHRF), an active mineral exploration company engaged in the exploration and development of the company's wholly owned multi-commodity mineral properties in Canada.

To begin the interview, Brewster provided an overview of Renforth’s business model.

“Renforth is a junior exploration company, but that is a little misleading. We’re not exploring. We have two fantastic assets with proven mineralization and resources, and we're in the process of developing those through the exploration cycle – adding and creating resources – at which point we will try to take them into production and/or look for a partner,” she said. “The business model really is the advancement of the assets toward production.”

Brewster next discussed her background in the mining industry and those of the Renforth team.

“I have literally grown up in the exploration business. My father is a successful exploration geologist who worked all over the world, and that's what we talked about at the kitchen table when he was in the country. I'm an entrepreneur. I run a consulting company and a couple other businesses. One of my entrepreneurial endeavors is that I'm a contractor in the exploration business, which led me to become the president of Renforth some time ago. Under my leadership, we've acquired, looked at and, in fact, discarded several assets. We also acquired an asset, established the first resource and sold that asset at a profit. The funding from that transaction allowed us to acquire our critical minerals property, which we hold in Quebec. We also hold a gold deposit in Quebec. It's been a process of increasing the company’s asset base.”

“The team around me consists of numerous geologists, both as advisors and as field geologists for the company, and we have relationships in the business, in part because my family’s been in this business for a while, that we can draw on and bring any expertise we require to bear. It's very effective, and, since the CFO and I get paid in shares, we're completely aligned with shareholders in that regard.”

Join IBN’s Stuart Smith and Nicole Brewster, President and CEO of Renforth Resources Inc., to learn more about the company’s recent milestones and operational goals for the balance of 2024 and beyond.

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Dr. Arthur Halleran, CEO and Director of Trillion Energy International Inc. (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF), a Canadian oil and gas exploration and production company with operations primarily focused in the Republic of Türkiye.

To begin the interview, Halleran discussed the company’s project portfolio.

“Trillion Energy is an oil and gas producer with operations in Türkiye. We have the SASB Gas Field in the Black Sea, and then we also have an oil field on shore. The field has been producing since around 2007, with another series of drilling in 2011. Trillion took over the field in 2017. In 2022-23, we drilled another five wells to tag into new gas pools and also re-completed one. They were long reach, directionally drilled wells.”

“When we acquired the company holding these assets in Türkiye, the gas field didn't have any economic gas production or a reserve report. The facilities were written off… We got a new reserve report and operated the drilling… Leveraging recent technological advancements, we were able to produce the borehole onto the platforms, into the pipelines, onto our gas facilities, and right to the sales line… Right now, we're producing about 6-6.5 million cubic feet per day from three of the wells. After some upcoming refinements, we expect production to be in the order of about 12-15 million cubic feet per day, and we anticipate that level of constant production for a couple of years.”

Halleran next detailed his background and those of the Trillion team.

“I'm a geologist by trade. I have about 44 years of experience, and I have a Ph.D. in petroleum geology. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in about 39 other countries. Over half of my experience is on international projects. I started with Trillion Energy in 2011 as a director, and in 2017, I took over as the CEO… My CFO is David Thompson. He has about 50 years of experience in the industry. He previously worked with Sea Dragon Energy in Egypt and numerous other companies. He’s joined on the team by Scott Lower, the president of our subsidiary in Türkiye. Then, we have a whole series of directors, which you can see on the website, all very experienced in the industry, as well.”

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Dr. Arthur Halleran, CEO and Director of Trillion Energy International Inc. (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF), a Canadian oil and gas exploration and production company with operations primarily focused in the Republic of Türkiye.

To begin the interview, Halleran discussed the company’s project portfolio.

“Trillion Energy is an oil and gas producer with operations in Türkiye. We have the SASB Gas Field in the Black Sea, and then we also have an oil field on shore. The field has been producing since around 2007, with another series of drilling in 2011. Trillion took over the field in 2017. In 2022-23, we drilled another five wells to tag into new gas pools and also re-completed one. They were long reach, directionally drilled wells.”

“When we acquired the company holding these assets in Türkiye, the gas field didn't have any economic gas production or a reserve report. The facilities were written off… We got a new reserve report and operated the drilling… Leveraging recent technological advancements, we were able to produce the borehole onto the platforms, into the pipelines, onto our gas facilities, and right to the sales line… Right now, we're producing about 6-6.5 million cubic feet per day from three of the wells. After some upcoming refinements, we expect production to be in the order of about 12-15 million cubic feet per day, and we anticipate that level of constant production for a couple of years.”

Halleran next detailed his background and those of the Trillion team.

“I'm a geologist by trade. I have about 44 years of experience, and I have a Ph.D. in petroleum geology. Throughout my career, I’ve worked in about 39 other countries. Over half of my experience is on international projects. I started with Trillion Energy in 2011 as a director, and in 2017, I took over as the CEO… My CFO is David Thompson. He has about 50 years of experience in the industry. He previously worked with Sea Dragon Energy in Egypt and numerous other companies. He’s joined on the team by Scott Lower, the president of our subsidiary in Türkiye. Then, we have a whole series of directors, which you can see on the website, all very experienced in the industry, as well.”

To begin the interview, Horsley discussed the company’s flagship project.

“Our Duquesne West project is our flagship. People are always talking about location, location, location, and we happen to be in the Southern Abitibi of Quebec, in the heart of this district surrounded by 15 gold producing mines – an area that's produced 200 million ounces of gold.” he said. “Our Duquesne West gold project has a historical resource of 727,000 ounces of gold, and what's really crucial is that it's very high grade, with an average of 5.42 grams of gold per ton and a robust average thickness of 5.7 meters.”

“Our mission is to grow this resource as quickly, cost efficiently and strategically as possible. Our resource was based on a 3.0-gram cutoff grade in a 2.5-meter thickness, and it was also based on $960 gold back when that historical report was done in 2011. What is really exciting is that, since 2011, gold is up 150%.”

“We are planning to have an updated mineral resource estimate out by Q1 2025. In that updated MRE, we are planning to significantly lower the cutoff grade of 3.0 grams, potentially to 2.0, because it should open up a whole bunch of resources at lower grades that are potentially mineable in the future. We're quite excited to have this unique asset in the most prolific and productive gold mining camp in Canada. It's a special opportunity.”

Join IBN’s Carmel Fisher and Alex Horsley, Head of Corporate Development and Director of Emperor Metals, to learn more about the 2011 mineral resource estimate for the company’s flagship Duquesne West gold project, as well as its recent milestones and near-term goals.

About Emperor Metals Inc.

Emperor Metals Inc. is an innovative Canadian mineral exploration company focused on developing high-quality gold properties situated in the Canadian Shield. For more information, visit the company’s website at www.EmperorMetals.com

The MiningNewsWire Podcast features revealing sit-downs with executives who are shaping the future of the global mining industry. The latest episode features Malcolm Dorsey, President, CEO and Director of Torr Metals Inc. (TSX.V: TMET), a mineral exploration company dedicated to advancing its 100% owned, district-scale copper-gold porphyry and orogenic gold projects in highly accessible mining regions of Canada.

To begin the interview, Dorsey discussed Torr Metals’ founding and his vision for the company.

“Torr Metals was really founded with the vision to capitalize on the increasing demand that we can all see for copper and gold,” he said. “Our goal was to identify and develop underexplored project areas with high potential for new discovery. What we've found is that historical areas with high drill density often have a known deposit that's already there, or they’ve got geological targets that have been tested multiple times by previous explorers. This really limits the potential for major new discovery, which we think will deliver the most value for our shareholders.”

“Instead, Torr Metals focuses on district-scale areas with low exploration maturity and excellent access to highways, power grids, and mining infrastructure. So, enough there to indicate some great potential with multiple targets, but still early stage with very low cost to exploration. This maximizes our opportunities to make one or more discoveries, especially as we are able to organically build very large projects with multiple prospective targets. This is all done at a very low cost, usually staking. With that, we don't have to pay into any expensive acquisition agreements or anything like that. We keep low dilution on our share count while putting as much money into the ground as possible. Our ultimate goal here is to discover and develop a significant new copper and gold resource and bring that value to our shareholders.”

“My background is in structural geology. Fundamentally, this is a specialization in figuring out where the best potential lies for potential deposits that often remain hidden, and I think this is where the industry is really starting to move. Many of the easier sites have already been found over the past decades. Finding new ones is going to really require unraveling the puzzle to find the needle in the haystack, and that's what structural geology is all about. Our ability to find that needle has already been demonstrated over the past 11 months since acquiring our Kolos copper-gold and Filion gold projects. At Kolos, our 2023 soil sampling revealed four potential porphyry centers with geophysical anomalies extending over a kilometer deep. Surface samples confirmed the presence of 0.38% copper and 0.22 g/t gold. Meanwhile, at Filion, we've identified six parallel gold-bearing structures with soil anomalies up to 1.32 g/t gold, extending up to 1.2 kilometers, aligning with historical channel samples of over 91 g/t gold across 0.3 meters. These findings, all of which are road-accessible and untested by drilling, highlight our success in uncovering previously unrecognized targets in underexplored prolific areas.”

Torr Metals released a reporting highlighting the final assay results from a total of 33 rock grab samples collected during 2024 reconnaissance programs. The results revealed additional high-grade rock grab assays within the Kirby, Rea and Clapperton exploration target zones as well as a new copper-gold discovery in the northern portion of the Kolos Copper-Gold Project, which is called the Sonic Zone. Highlights of the report show new Sonic Zone discoveries, the expansion of exploration targets at the Clapperton Zone and the confirmation of multiple areas with strong mineralization.

“The latest results from our 2024 reconnaissance sampling programs not only reaffirm the high-grade potential of the Kolos Project but also highlight significant untapped exploration opportunities across multiple zones,” stated Torr Metals president and CEO Malcolm Dorsey in the press release. “The discovery of the Sonic Zone is particularly promising, as it opens up a new area of mineralization that bears geological similarities to the high-grade New Afton copper-gold porphyry deposit, located just 27 kilometers to the north. These findings underscore the vast potential for untouched new discoveries within the project area, and as we advance into the 2024 field season, we anticipate delivering substantial value to our shareholders through continued exploration of these exciting new targets as well as development of our already established zones.”

Torr Metals announced last week that the Ontario government had approved the exploration permit. The three-year permit means the company can now drill on the Filion Gold Project, which is ideally situated adjacent to excellent infrastructure with direct road access from the Trans-Canada Highway 11, paralleled by the regional railway and provincial power grid. The project is located approximately 30 kilometers from the town of Kapuskasing. According to the release, after obtaining the project in October 2023, Torr Metals moved forward with a first-ever systematic humus soil program that indicated historical results, including rock grab samples that assayed 9.1 g/t gold (Au) and channel sampling that reportedly yielded 91.4 g/t Au over 0.3 meters.

“The granting of this exploration permit opens up a tremendous opportunity for Torr to build o our promising work from late last year at the Filion Gold Project,” said Torr Metals president and CEO Malcolm Dorsey. “We are very excited to further advance our exploration, especially after identifying extensive kilometer-scale gold soil anomalies that have yet to be drill tested along-trend of historical high-grade rock and channel samples. We are in the process of finalizing exploration plans and look forward to the coming months as we keep the market updated on our progress.”

Torr Metals has announced the final assay results from its 2023 rock sampling program and delineation of a robust ZTEM geophysical anomaly at the newly defined Vik Zone, which is part of the company’s wholly owned Kolos Copper-Gold Project. In addition, the company reported that it has completed its early reconnaissance field-sampling program. The program included coverage over newly acquired ground to the north and east assays pending for 27 outcrop and float rock grab samples.

“We are strongly encouraged by these promising results, which validate our meticulous exploration strategy at the Kolos Project,” said Torr Metals president and CEO Malcolm Dorsey. “The rock grab sample grades are in-line with comparisons we have made in the region, and we have confirmed surface mineralization in outcrop within all of our high-priority target zones, positioning us with prime starting locations for future drilling. With the recent expansion we have identified and sampled new exploration targets, strengthening our position for the upcoming 2024 field season with potential for multiple new grassroots discoveries in addition to our established drill-ready targets, significantly enhancing the long-term growth potential of our project and driving further value for our shareholders.”

Torr Metals has announced the final assay results from its 2023 rock sampling program and delineation of a robust ZTEM geophysical anomaly at the newly defined Vik Zone, which is part of the company’s wholly owned Kolos Copper-Gold Project. In addition, the company reported that it has completed its early reconnaissance field-sampling program. The program included coverage over newly acquired ground to the north and east assays pending for 27 outcrop and float rock grab samples.

“We are strongly encouraged by these promising results, which validate our meticulous exploration strategy at the Kolos Project,” said Torr Metals president and CEO Malcolm Dorsey. “The rock grab sample grades are in-line with comparisons we have made in the region, and we have confirmed surface mineralization in outcrop within all of our high-priority target zones, positioning us with prime starting locations for future drilling. With the recent expansion we have identified and sampled new exploration targets, strengthening our position for the upcoming 2024 field season with potential for multiple new grassroots discoveries in addition to our established drill-ready targets, significantly enhancing the long-term growth potential of our project and driving further value for our shareholders.”

To begin the interview, McEwen discussed his extensive background in the mining sector.

“When I was 10 and 11, my father had me charting stocks; he was in the investment industry. At 12, I made my first investment. Around the dining room table, there were discussions of investments, and one particular area was gold and gold shares,” McEwen said. “I followed him into the investment industry after college… I ran a closed-end investment company and used it to jump into a hostile takeover battle. I ended up with control of two gold mining companies and a couple of other companies which, over a period of eight years, I consolidated into a company called Goldcorp. We went from a market cap of $50 million to $8 billion, then I decided to step out. We had $400 million in cash, no debt and were one of the lowest cost gold producers in the world.”

McEwen next turned his attention toward McEwen Mining’s project portfolio.

“We have an underground gold mine in Northern Ontario, Canada, that we call Fox Complex; we have an open pit gold mine in Nevada called Gold Bar; we have a mine on care and maintenance in Mexico that we will be reactivating shortly; and we have a joint venture in southern Argentina, an underground gold and silver mine, operated by our partner, Hochschild Mining, where we own 49%; we own 100% of all the others. In addition, we have a very large copper project that we've been financing and developing independently of McEwen Mining. McEwen Mining owns 48% of this project.”

He then examined the mining industry’s reputation relating to environmental stewardship and detailed McEwen Mining’s efforts to promote change.

“The mining industry has a horrible reputation with most people; they view it as a destroyer of the environment. We have this large copper asset, considered the eighth-largest undeveloped copper deposit in the world, located in Northern Argentina. We were looking at how best to develop it, and, two years ago, I asked an architect who is considered the Steve Jobs of the green building movement to sit down with our project engineers, our consultants and our senior management. My instruction to him was to help us redefine mining, to help us build a mine that will be like a jewel on the hillside rather than a scar. We aim to reduce its water usage, power generation and carbon emissions – to develop a regenerative copper mine. Today, mining is much more careful with the environment, spending a lot more time and money to protect it during the operations.”

Torr Metals has significantly increased the size of its British-Columbia-based Kolos Copper-Gold Project by 75% from an approximate 140 km to 240 km. The company announced that new mineral claims focus on northern expansion, following an extension of the north-trending Fanta Fault, an orientation identified by the company as a major structural control on copper (Cu) and gold (Au) mineralization in the area.

“By securing these new claims at low cost, we've strategically expanded our footprint to include highly prospective ground to the east and north, incorporating the historical Ram soil anomaly as well as multiple new exploration targets,” stated Torr Metals president and CEO Malcolm Dorsey. “While our main focus remains on the more advanced drill-ready Lodi, Kirby, Ace, Rea, and Clapperton Zones, the new discovery of the Vik Zone demonstrates the effectiveness of our exploration model in finding highly anomalous mineralization in unexplored areas. As such this expansion further enhances our long-term growth potential and places us in a favourable position for potential new grassroots discoveries in the upcoming 2024 field season.”

The recommendation follows the DSMB’s pre-specified futility analysis of unblinded (to the DSMB only) efficacy and safety data in the Company’s trial of Berubicin versus Lomustine, a standard of care in patients with recurrent GBM. More specifically, the DSMB reviewed the primary endpoint of overall survival (OS) and secondary efficacy measures progression-free survival (PFF) and overall response rate (ORR), as well as safety data in evaluable patients. In order to support continuing the trial, Berubicin’s efficacy had to be at least comparable to Lomustine’s on the primary endpoint (OS).
