Sirios Resources’ flagship asset is the Cheechoo project in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay region of Quebec, about 15 km from Newmont’s Éléonore gold mine. The conversation covers the company’s ongoing 25,000 to 35,000 metre drill program, the path to a future PEA, cash position, insider ownership, and the history behind Sirios’ recent acquisition of OVI Mining.
Golden Sky Minerals’ flagship asset is the Rayfield copper-gold porphyry project in south-central British Columbia, about 20 kilometres east of 70 Mile House. It also holds the Hotspot and Lucky Strike gold projects in Yukon’s White Gold District, and the Auden gold project in Ontario. I sat down with President and CEO John Newell for a wide-ranging conversation covering the company’s history, the Boliden earn-in structure at Rayfield, this year’s exploration plans, and financing.
Surge Copper is a British Columbia copper-molybdenum developer whose flagship asset is the Berg project, located about 100 km northwest of Smithers. The company also holds the Ootsa property nearby. This interview, recorded roughly two weeks after Surge released its Berg prefeasibility study (PFS), covers the post-PFS share price selloff, project economics, permitting timeline, financing position, and the company’s second asset, Ootsa.
Dustin and I sat down to discuss Kingfisher’s 15,000 metre drill program now ongoing at the Hank-Mary district, part of the 933 square kilometre HWY 37 project, alongside regional exploration work at the separate 202 square kilometre Forrest Kerr project. The conversation centered on the start of the 2026 drill season, target prioritization, budget, and warrant supply.
Argenta Silver has one active project: the El Quevar high-grade silver project in Salta Province, Argentina, anchored by the Yaxtché deposit. This interview with CEO Joaquin Marias covered the project’s acquisition history, share structure and insider ownership, metallurgy and concentrate marketability, exploration upside across the broader land package, financing position, and the near-term catalyst calendar.
Au Gold Corp’s flagship project is now Havelock, a gold-antimony property in central Victoria, Australia, near the town of Maryborough. The company also still holds the Ponderosa gold project in the Spences Bridge Gold Belt of British Columbia, Canada, though that asset is currently inactive. The interview, with founder and CEO Marc Blythe, covers the history and geology of Havelock, the company’s plan to begin diamond drilling, its current cash position, and the risks tied to land access and exploration outcomes.
Lake Victoria Gold has two projects in Tanzania: Imwelo, a fully permitted open-pit gold project located about 12 km west of AngloGold Ashanti’s Geita Gold Mine in the Lake Victoria Greenstone Belt, and Tembo, a district-scale exploration asset adjacent to Barrick’s Bulyanhulu Mine. This interview, with President and CEO Marc Cernovitch, covered the company’s path to first gold at Imwelo, its financing strategy centred on a Monetary Metals gold loan facility, ongoing sterilization and infill drilling, metallurgical results, and a near-term maiden resource at Tembo. TL;DR The story is all about whether LVG can close its Monetary Metals gold loan facility, which is described as the key trigger to order the processing plant and break ground at Imwelo. Cernovitch said they have about C$4 million in the bank from a recently closed convertible debenture (raised roughly C$3.8 million to date, targeting C$5 million), which covers preconstruction activities, but the gold
Pacifica Silver’s flagship is the Claudia silver-gold project, an 11,876-hectare low-sulphidation epithermal vein district in Durango State, Mexico, located roughly 145 kilometres northwest of the city of Durango in the Sierra Madre Occidental. The project encompasses the historic El Papantón artisanal mining district and hosts over 30 kilometres of mapped vein systems, approximately 90% of which have never been drill-tested. This interview with CEO Todd Anthony covers the current Phase II drill program, the structure of the property acquisition agreement, treasury and funding runway, and the path toward a maiden mineral resource estimate.
Pinnacle Silver and Gold’s flagship is the El Potrero gold-silver project in Durango, Mexico, a past-producing low-sulphidation epithermal vein system in the Sierra Madre Occidental, roughly 35 km from four operating mines including Fresnillo’s La Ciénega. This interview with CEO Robert Archer, covers progress since the last update including underground rehabilitation and the start of delineation drilling, second-round metallurgical results, the discovery of a separate polymetallic system on the Maria Fernanda 2 (MF2) concession, vendor payment restructuring, and the permitting outlook ahead of a targeted production restart by end of 2027.
Daura Gold has two active project areas: its flagship Antonella epithermal gold-silver vein system in the Ancash region of Peru, and the Cerro Bayo / La Flora option earn-in project in the Deseado Massif, Santa Cruz Province, Argentina (optioned from Latin Metals). Secondary Peru holdings include Yanamina, which carries a historical resource, and the early-stage Tayacoto project. This interview with CEO Mark Sumner covered the company’s community access permitting situation at Antonella, Phase 1 drill results from Cerro Bayo and what Phase 2 will look like, financing runway, capital structure, and the near-term catalyst calendar.
Titiminas Silver’s flagship asset is the Madre Sierra Silver mine, a past-producing polymetallic underground mine in the Ricran District, Jauja Province, central Peru, approximately 200 km east of Lima. The deposit is silver-dominant, with lead, zinc, copper, and gold as byproducts, and sits within a broader land package that also hosts the newly identified Madre Sierra Norte zone, the Titiminas CRD carbonate replacement deposit, and the Janchiscocha molybdenum target. This interview covered the company’s history, ownership structure, the current 19,500-metre underground drilling program, financing position, production optionality, and management’s plan to reach a Final Investment Decision by Q4 2027.
