This discussion with Lobo Tiggre ranged across the oil shock tied to Middle East disruption, what that means for inflation and interest-rate expectations, why gold has been acting confused, whether uranium is actually the cleaner beneficiary of the whole mess, and why junior miners still live or die by jurisdiction and execution risk no matter how sexy the commodity headline of the week gets.
Killian told me that they are not treating Mirage as a finished asset at 52.2 Mt at 1.08% Li2O, they are already drilling Anatacau Main again, and they want near-term news flow from more than one front. He said that they had enough cash after the recent financing to run a multi-jurisdiction program, but the dilution risk is not gone forever, and that was discussed more in-depth in the conversation.
CEO Philippe Cloutier said they are roughly halfway through the 100,000-metre drill program. He also talked to me about the latest resource of about 3.2 million oz (when measured, indicated, and inferred are added together), as well as how they’re now trying to turn that into a better development picture through metallurgy, environmental baseline work, and internal scoping. The new angle was Hope, where Cloutier said first-pass drilling in the Pontiac sediments may point to a new (the fourth to date) mineralization style.
CopperCorp is exploring for copper, with some gold and other metals, in western Tasmania, and the main projects are Alpine Stellar in the AMC Project and Jukes, Hydes, Linda, and Jasper Hills around the Razorback property. This conversation was about the recent Alpine exploration-target work, what the Jukes drilling is actually showing, how management is ranking targets, and how they plan to pay for the next round of work.
Mexico has become one of those jurisdictions where the conversation is usually ruined by either the doom merchants who act as if every project is one pickup truck away from collapse, and the promotional crowd who talk as if permits, politics, and cartel spillover are just minor clerical inconveniences. In this interview, John-Mark Staude argues that the truth sits in the uncomfortable middle.
Santacruz Silver is a polymetallic producer, with its core assets being the Bolivar and Porco operations in Bolivia, the Caballo Blanco group of mines in Bolivia, the Soracaya development asset in Bolivia, and the Zimapan mine in Hidalgo, Mexico. Revenue and production are tied to silver, zinc, lead, and some copper. The main topics discussed in this interview were Bolivar’s flooding recovery, near-term production growth, treasury strength, Soracaya permitting, and whether the company can grow without going back to the market.
