We kicked off a new format last week. We’re lining up four exploration executives in the same virtual room and walking each one through the same framework on their home turf. I borrowed the PESTLE framework (Political, Economic, Social, Technological, Legal, Environmental) and gave it two tweaks for resources. The T stops meaning Technology and starts meaning Transport, because a discovery you cannot truck out is a problem on a slide deck, not an asset. And the second E stops meaning Environment-in-the-ESG-sense and starts meaning the geological environment.
The four guests, paired with the four jurisdictions:
– Darren Klinck (President, Arras Minerals Corp., TSX-V: ARK) on Kazakhstan
– Carl Joone (President and Co-founder, Ongwe Minerals Inc., TSXV: OGW / NSX: ONG) on Namibia
– former Malheur County sheriff and Provenance Gold advisor Andy Bentz alongside CEO Rauno Perttu (Provenance Gold Corp., CSE: PAU) on Oregon
– Kiran Patankar (President & CEO, Maple Gold Mines Ltd., TSX-V: MGM) on Quebec.
None of them threw rocks at each other, figurative or otherwise, but the contrasts between the four pitches were the most interesting part of the conversation.
