Companion Article: https://juniorresourceinvesting.subst...
Thesis Gold CEO Ewan Webster joins me again for a company update. Thesis continues its growth - both of its Lawyers-Ranch project (4.7m oz, 4.2m oz M+I) and of itself as a company and continues to offer a compelling valuation opportunity for investors - a lot of potential reward for not a lot of risk. Ewan discusses with me Thesis' recent hires (Dr. Evan Orovan as Chief Geo and Kettina Cordero as VPIR), their advanced efforts in taking Thesis through the feasibility studies process, neighbour Amarc Resource's incredible new porphyry discovery, Thesis' own future discovery plans, as well as a brief discussion of Thesis' finances

Founders Metals Bags Another Brand New Discovery, Plus an Intro to VPX Pascal Voegeli

Link to companion article: https://juniorresourceinvesting.subst... The rate that Founders continues to put new discoveries on the board is impressive, this time the impressive initial results coming out of the Da Vinci target that has seen strong grade in all 5 holes released to date, including 21m of 3.24 g/t Au and 36.0 m of 2.21 g/t Au. CEO Colin Padget joins me again along with VPX Pascal Voegeli for the first time. This one is a must listen - lots of great insights into their methodology and updates on a wide range of soon-to-be drilled targets. It seems strange to say after the run Founders has had, but they might yet be at another inflection point in terms of the potential and demonstrated scale of their Antino land package. And with four rigs and four surface teams, the rate of discovery is only going to get faster in 2025.

Giga Metals: Getting Back to Business to Search for New High Grade

With nickel sentiment and price continuing to suffer, CEO Mark Jarvis joins me to discuss Giga’s recent plans to explore for game-changing high grade. Giga's Turnagain deposit is one of the largest nickel deposits in the world, but with mediocre grade, its bulk tonnage advantages are muted in such dramatic nickel downturns as now. So, rather, than sitting still and waiting for nickel sentiment and price to return, Mark Jarvis and his team at Giga have proverbially decided to play offence instead of defence and have brought in international nickel expert Dr. Steve Beresford to approach Turnagain with a fresh perspective dedicated at discovering heretofore unfound high-grade deposits around and beneath its massive Turnagain project. CEO Mark Jarvis joins me to discuss these plans and what it will take to develop a new slate of drill-ready targets.

I have on Cassiar Gold Corp for the first time. If you’ve been active in this space the past few years, there’s a good chance you have come across this one. They burst onto the scene with new management and a new land package just in time for the mini-bull run from 3 or so years ago. However, like many in the junior explorer sector, good work has fallen on deaf ears the past few years. CEO Marco Roque joins me to discuss Cassiar and why it remains on track to successfully discover, expand, and sell a major resource.

Prismo Metals Update: Palos Verdes is Officially Being Drilled, with big Further Discovery Potential

Companion Article and Written Summary: https://juniorresourceinvesting.subst...
Prismo Metals have officially begun drilling their Palos Verdes project immediately adjacent to Vizsla Silver’s Panuco project. With 3000 meters budgeted, this drill campaign will test the property at depth and along strike in ways it has never been before. Success with this campaign will very materially grow any future resource in this very high-grade silver-gold district. With Vizsla as a formal partner offering technical expertise and guidance - including allowing Prismo to drill from its land to target at depth properly - this is a pretty exciting drill campaign which I also believe has a pretty high likelihood of success.

Thesis Gold Updated PEA: “This is One of the Best Development Projects in North America."

Join the Community at:   / discord  
Companion Article and Summary at: https://juniorresourceinvesting.subst...
Published Sept. 21, 2024
Thesis Gold (TAU.V) has had a pretty good run over the past month or so since my site visit, rising some 60% from 60 cents to $0.95. Obviously someone has caught wind of the deep value imbalance that was (and still is, though not quite so extreme) here. A big part of this no doubt was the updated PEA Thesis put out a couple weeks ago that formally united Lawyers and Ranch and demonstrated some pretty compelling numbers. Below is my conversation I had with CEO Ewan Webster about that PEA, as well as the TAU’s future.
