The Only Uranium Project in Guyana, But Can They Drill There?

October 21, 2026

U92 Energy’s flagship asset is the Kurupung uranium project in Guyana’s Cuyuni-Mazaruni region. Kurupung has about 129,000 metres of historical drilling (just over 40,000m by Cogema and about 88,000m by U3O8 Corp), which stopped work after Fukushima. The historical estimate is 10.6M lb indicated at 0.072% U3O8 plus 10M lb inferred, for 20.6M lb at a 0.03% cut-off, across four Aricheng deposits. At the originally recommended 0.05% cut-off it falls to about 16M lb. None of it is U92’s own drilling. In this interview, I asked about the history of the asset, the current state of the permits, and their plans for the future.

Visible Gold in New Holes, But Can the Assays Confirm Scale?

October 21, 2026

Dreadnought Resources’ flagship asset is the Star of Mangaroon, a small high-grade gold deposit in the Gascoyne that Black Cat Syndicate would mine, haul and process at its Paulsens mill. Metzke’s Find at the Illaara project is lined up as a second potential small cash source. The bigger goal is using that cash to fund exploration for a multi-million-ounce discovery at Mangaroon and Illaara. The company also holds rare earths and niobium at Yin and Gifford Creek, and a nickel-copper project at the Money Intrusion that Teck is earning into. In this interview, I asked about the share structure, the Black Cat relationship, why Star is late, the cash position, the exploration pipeline and the main risks.

October 21, 2026

Lundberg is a stockwork sulphide deposit tied to the VMS system that fed the old Buchans mine. That makes it different from the higher-grade massive sulphide lenses that were mined there for 50 years. In this interview, I asked the CEO about the recent resource upgrade, their plans for the future, and what else they have going on.

In this interview, I asked for an update on the drilling, as well as about the first drill program at Gold Standard, Eric Sprott’s investment, and the plan for 2027.

In this conversation, I asked the upcoming first drill program, the financing that just closed, insider alignment, and why the ground was never drilled before.
