Great Projects Don't Stop Growing: Why Founders Metals' Impressive Run is Just Getting Started

Founders Metals (FDR.V) is already a heck of a story and is just going to keep getting bigger. Honestly, that’s it in a single sentence. Of course, CEO Colin Padget and I talked about a lot more than that in our longform intro interview - historical mining, modern exploration success, permitting, mining tailings, future plans, and much more - but all roads lead back to Rome here. Which is to say that my discussions with Colin (and my DD work in general so far) have led me to the belief that Founders - far from being done in terms of exploration results leading to market appreciation - is just getting started. This is because Founders’ Antino gold project has all the hallmarks of a truly great project.
