In this interview, Peter Schiff joins host Mark to analyze the April 2026 market environment marked by Middle East disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, surging German recession risk, and emerging-market central banks selling gold for cash amid an energy shock.
Mako Mining, led by CEO Akiba Leisman, operates the San Albino gold mine in Nicaragua and the Moss Mine in Arizona while advancing the Mt.

Liberty Gold is a single-asset gold developer focused on its Black Pine Oxide Gold Project in Cassia County, southeastern Idaho. Black Pine is a Carlin-style, sedimentary-hosted oxide gold deposit being advanced through a feasibility study and federal permitting.

Ian Cassel showed me some data that proves that micro-cap investing is brutally difficult, buy-and-hold almost never works in this space, and even the world’s best fund managers only pick winners about half the time. He also told me that what separates the skilled from the lucky isn’t the quality of their ideas. It’s the discipline of their execution. He talked about sizing positions small at the start, letting winners earn their size, and cutting losers before they cut you.
Simon Hunt thinks we are entering one of the most dangerous macro environments in decades. He expects a major US-Israeli military strike on Iran imminently, which will send oil prices well above $150. That oil shock lands on an economy that was already weakening, and the combination means stagflation at best, recession in much of the world by Q3. Simon himself is no longer trying to make a quick buck and he has started preserving wealth in energy, food, and gold. He’s sticking to his $38,000 gold target by 2032, sees a better entry point for copper miners later this year, and is bullish on filling a freezer and planting a vegetable garden.
Thesis Gold &Silver is advancing its 100%-owned Lawyers-Ranch combined gold-silver project in the Toodoggone Mining District of northern British Columbia. The flagship assets are two deposits, Lawyers and Ranch, which are being developed as a single combined operation. This interview covers the Pre-Feasibility Study, a ~C$44 million raise that brought AngloGold Ashanti in as a new strategic investor, permitting progress, and the upcoming summer exploration season.
RPX Gold is a gold developer focused on its 100%-owned Wawa Gold Project in Ontario’s Michipicoten Greenstone Belt. The company recently completed a Preliminary Economic Assessment and is now working toward a Pre-Feasibility Study. This interview covers the PEA results, the company’s financing plans, permitting status, toll milling strategy, and what needs to happen before a production decision can be made.
P2 Gold is an exploration and development company with one flagship asset: the Gabbs gold-copper project in Nye County, Nevada, situated near the town of Gabbs on the Walker Lane Trend, roughly equidistant between Reno and Las Vegas. The 2025 PEA outlined approximately 3.5 million gold-equivalent ounces across the indicated and inferred categories, with a roughly one-third / two-thirds split respectively. This conversation with CEO Joe Ovsenek covers the current state of an infill RC drill program, plans for a feasibility study, a recently signed water rights acquisition deal, and how the company plans to finance all of it.
Auriginal Mining is a Quebec-focused explorer targeting gold, copper, zinc, and silver at its 100%-owned Roger Project in the Chibougamau district. The company also holds a 25% stake in the Anik property through a joint venture with IAMGOLD (which owns 75%), as well as two earlier-stage copper properties called Mishi and Wabash. This conversation was mostly about the current 5,200m drill program at Roger, which is designed to test whether the historical gold-copper deposit sits below a deeper volcanic-hosted massive sulphide (VMS) system, with some discussion of the Anik JV and the company’s broader M&A ambitions.
Blue Moon Metals is a multi-asset developer with five brownfield polymetallic projects spanning two continents: Nussir (copper-gold-silver, Norway), NSG (copper-zinc-gold-silver, Norway), Blue Moon (zinc-gold-silver-copper, California), Springer (tungsten-molybdenum, Nevada), and the newly acquired Apex (germanium-gallium-copper, Utah). This interview covers two recent US acquisitions and what they mean for the company’s hub-and-spoke processing strategy at the Springer complex in Nevada, as well as the Nussir construction timeline, capital position, and near-term catalysts.
