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.

Compass Gold’s flagship is the Massala project in southern Mali. Compass wants to take Massala straight from exploration into a small, shallow, gravity-only open pit under Mali’s new Small Mine Permit category, without doing a PEA or feasibility study first. In this interview, we asked the CEO about that plan, as well as the time and money he expects it to take.

Storm Exploration’s focus right now is its 100% owned Gold Standard project, about 60 km north of Fort Frances in northwestern Ontario. Storm is targeting a copper and zinc VMS system there, defined by a conductor that it now interprets as running about 7 km. It also has two other projects in the portfolio, Keezhik and Attwood. 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.

Bullfrog Gold is exploring the South Bullfrog gold-silver project near Beatty, Nevada, in the Walker Lane, about 5 km south of AngloGold Ashanti’s North Bullfrog project. The land package is 488 unpatented BLM claims covering about 10,000 acres. They are looking for low-sulphidation epithermal gold and silver. 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.

Desert Gold is currently building a small 200 tpd gravity operation at its Barani East deposit in Mali, with first production now targeted for Q4 2026 even though the original commissioning schedule slipped. In this interview, I asked the CEO Jared Scharf about what has actually been built, what still needs to happen before first gold, how much this is all going to cost, and what could still go wrong.

Resolution Minerals’ focus is the 100%-owned Horse Heaven gold, tungsten and antimony project in Valley County, central Idaho, right next to Perpetua Resources’ Stibnite Gold Project. Its two main targets are Golden Gate (gold and tungsten, split into North and South) and Antimony Ridge. In this interview, I asked about the 2026 drill program and pending assays, the maiden resource timeline, the historic tungsten stockpiles, an antimony pilot plant, Fast-41 permitting, the NASDAQ listing and the treasury. The Australian ground is being held with no spending, and an Alaska project was recently sold.
