      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Tavi Costa of Azuria Capital shares his thoughts on the impending stagflation and one mining company he believes is worth looking into.&#x3C;p&#x3E;This is rapidly becoming one of the most pronounced stagflationary environments in decades.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Inflation is accelerating while growth is rolling over sharply.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;That leaves the Fed in a real bind.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At these levels of debt, you either save growth or kill inflation.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;And the truth is, policymakers will choose the former &#x26;mdash; because they can&#x27;t afford the latter.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264761620_1.jpg&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;696&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;To give credit where it&#x27;s due, I want to highlight a chart from Bob Elliott from Unlimited Funds.&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It&#x27;s a powerful illustration of how long periods of equity market stagnation are often followed by years of strong performance.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;If you look closely, the three historical stagnation periods largely stem from two main forces. The 1920s&#x26;ndash;1940s and the 2000s&#x26;ndash;2010s were both preceded by extreme equity valuations and speculative excess.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Extended stretches of strong returns &#x26;mdash; where value investing is dismissed, and a new generation with little risk management experience takes the lead &#x26;mdash; tend to push markets into irrational territory for a time.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;And while I won&#x27;t repeat the well-known quote about markets staying irrational longer than expected, the key point is this:&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Understanding the underlying imbalances matters far more than trying to pinpoint the exact catalyst, which is nearly impossible.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;That&#x27;s why we see so many investors correctly anticipate downturns &#x26;mdash; just with poor timing. Predicting triggers is incredibly difficult. Allocating capital based on what is fundamentally cheap and high quality within the current macro environment is far more important than trying to call the peak of the Nasdaq.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I will die on that hill.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Warren Buffett built an entire career on this principle &#x26;mdash; tuning out short-term noise and focusing on enduring businesses. That discipline is worth studying.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It&#x27;s also important to consider the 1970s period in the chart. That stagnation was driven by inflation. Rising costs of capital, labor pressures squeezing margins, and deglobalization disrupting supply chains made for a very challenging environment for equities.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;We are seeing many of those same dynamics today &#x26;mdash; geopolitical tensions, supply constraints, and inflation pressures driven by commodities, logistics disruptions, and years of excess credit and easy monetary policy.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At its core, that combination is likely the central issue.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The point of this chart is to highlight risk and why I have no interest in owning overvalued US equities for growth that is now rolling over under the weight of global debt.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;When growth starts to decelerate at peak valuations, get out of the way &#x26;mdash; that&#x27;s when things tend to unravel fast.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In contrast, the opportunity set in hard assets and emerging markets, particularly Latin America, is far more compelling today. That&#x27;s where I&#x27;m focusing my time, capital, and attention.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;The rebalancing out of financial assets and into hard assets may be one of the most important macro trends of the next 5&#x26;ndash;10 years. So why chase 50x sales AI companies?&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264761713_2.jpg&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;635&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The current level of Fed funds is suffocating growth and labor markets, yet still not restrictive enough to contain inflation.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;If you apply the Taylor Rule, short-term rates should be closer to 6.3% &#x26;mdash; and that estimate is already stale, based on January data. Today, that number is likely meaningfully higher.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Inflation is not going away. In fact, it is likely to reaccelerate in the coming months and remain well above the Fed&#x27;s so-called target. That&#x27;s a given. Meanwhile, policy rates are still roughly 250 basis points below where they should be based on that framework.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;And the underlying signals are getting louder:&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Commodities are now nearly 25% above the highs reached during the peak of the Russia-Ukraine war. The equal-weighted commodity index is rising at an annualized pace of roughly 34%.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The idea that the Fed can remain hawkish is already being challenged &#x26;mdash; just look at gold starting to reassert itself.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At the same time, long-term Treasuries are starting to rally even as oil prices move higher.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Now, before you think I&#x27;ve lost it&#x26;hellip; are you ready for a genuinely contrarian view?&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;The most underappreciated scenario in markets today is one where energy prices remain structurally elevated, while the US is forced to push the entire yield curve lower to manage an unsustainable debt burden.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In other words, inflation stays hot, rates ultimately fall, and policymakers quietly allow inflation to run.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;That is not a tail risk. It is increasingly becoming the base case.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264761749_3.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;698&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;If you&#x27;re wondering how this view might play out &#x26;mdash; and why it remains so underappreciated &#x26;mdash; look no further than the Brent crude futures curve.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Global markets still seem to be underestimating the seriousness of the situation, particularly the unintended ripple effects of higher energy prices. These pressures are likely to spill into agricultural commodities and, ultimately, food prices.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Given how severe global inequality already is, further escalation would have meaningful consequences. This is not just a market issue &#x26;mdash; it&#x27;s a broader societal risk that is quietly building and likely to become far more visible in the near future.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264761811_3.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;574&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Agricultural commodities continue to break out, and this remains one of the most important macro developments since the Iran conflict began.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I believe prices are on the verge of a much larger acceleration &#x26;mdash; one that could significantly worsen the global inflation problem. Recent data already points in that direction, with rising energy and fertilizer costs starting to push food prices higher globally.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264761857_4.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;696&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It&#x27;s also critical to recognize that labor markets are already deteriorating &#x26;mdash; and doing so more meaningfully than most appreciate.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The U-3 unemployment rate bottomed in April 2023 and has been trending higher ever since &#x26;mdash; coincidentally right around the time AI enthusiasm took off.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But the real signal isn&#x27;t the absolute level; it&#x27;s the trend.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;One of the most reliable indicators I track is unemployment relative to its 24-month moving average. When the former crosses above the latter, deterioration tends to accelerate. This has happened every single time since 1970.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Today, many will argue &#x22;this time is different&#x22; because the move has been more gradual. I strongly disagree. The pace is irrelevant &#x26;mdash; the direction is what matters.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;And if this trend continues, as I believe it will, the labor market will ultimately become the justification policymakers need to cut rates over the next 12 to 24 months.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264761920_5.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;693&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Now, let&#x27;s turn this conversation back to gold&#x26;hellip;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I know&#x26;hellip; I can&#x27;t help myself.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;When it comes to the recent weakness in the metal price, there are two key drivers worth highlighting &#x26;mdash; both of which helped push prices into oversold territory.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The first is obvious: Turkey.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But the more important question is whether this becomes systemic across other emerging markets and central banks. My view is that it won&#x27;t. Turkey is a very specific case, driven by its unique geopolitical position and near-term liquidity constraints.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Countries like Brazil, China, Russia, and India are in a completely different position and are unlikely to behave the same way.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Bloomberg, right near the recent bottom in gold prices, published a very misleading piece suggesting this could become contagious across other emerging markets. I think that&#x27;s a very poorly thought-out conclusion &#x26;mdash; as, unfortunately, we&#x27;ve come to expect from the traditional media.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The second factor is far less significant, but still worth mentioning. The liquidity stress in private equity &#x26;mdash; where some funds have gated investors&#x26;mdash; likely contributed at the margin.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;With capital locked up in illiquid assets, some investors may have been forced to sell what they could. That said, this is not a systemic driver. These investors rarely have meaningful exposure to gold, and if anything, their liquid allocations tend to lean on Bitcoin and others.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It may have added pressure, but it is nowhere near large enough to drive a broader breakdown.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Stepping back, nothing has changed in the long-term thesis for gold. If anything, this has created an opportunity to accumulate at discounted and oversold levels.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;That doesn&#x27;t mean volatility is behind us.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;A sharp selloff in an asset that is typically stable will force large allocators to reassess risk. But they don&#x27;t panic &#x26;mdash; they adjust. That usually means selling into strength rather than dumping positions at the lows.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;So expect some digestion here before the market finds a more stable footing.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;For long-term investors, this is exactly the type of environment where you want to be adding &#x26;mdash; not reacting. That&#x27;s how I&#x27;m approaching it.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264761943_6.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;652&#x22; height=&#x22;857&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;From a market standpoint, what&#x27;s happening beneath the surface is even more telling.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;High-quality miners are holding up exceptionally well despite the recent shakeout in gold prices. That kind of relative strength is not random. It&#x27;s what leadership looks like when a sector is in the process of bottoming.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;To be clear, I&#x27;m not claiming we&#x27;ve definitively seen the lows. The geopolitical backdrop remains highly fragile, and the situation can shift quickly.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But I&#x27;m more than comfortable riding through the volatility and staying fully committed to my long-term positions. Because if anything, this price action reinforces my view &#x26;mdash; we are still in the very early innings of a mining cycle.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Let me elaborate on one company I haven&#x27;t yet.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264762006_7.jpg&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;434&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_10388&#x22;&#x3E;Osisko Development Corp. (ODV:TSX.V)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The core of the company is the Cariboo Gold Project &#x26;mdash; a rare combination of scale, grade, jurisdiction, and permitting that is increasingly difficult to replicate today.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At the deposit level, Cariboo is already a ~2.0&#x26;ndash;2.1 million ounce reserve base grading ~3.6&#x26;ndash;3.8 g/t gold, which is meaningfully higher grade than most large-scale development projects globally.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;What makes this more compelling is not just the size, but the district-scale land package (~80 km of strike) with a long history of production, suggesting strong exploration upside beyond the current mine plan. In other words, you are underwriting a multi-million-ounce system, not a single deposit.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;From a production standpoint, the project is designed to deliver ~160k&#x26;ndash;190k ounces annually over a 10&#x26;ndash;12 year mine life, with clear potential to extend that through drilling. This puts Cariboo firmly in the &#x22;meaningful producer&#x22; category &#x26;mdash; large enough to matter, but still early in its growth curve.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On capital intensity, this is where the story becomes more nuanced &#x26;mdash; but still attractive.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The latest feasibility work points to ~CA$881M initial capex (with ~CA$1.4B all-in, including expansions). While not &#x22;cheap&#x22; in absolute terms, the project benefits from a phased development approach, with an initial lower-capital ramp that helps derisk execution and financing.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;More importantly, this is a fully permitted asset in Canada, which dramatically reduces one of the biggest risks in mining today &#x26;mdash; timeline uncertainty.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Economically, the project is solid even on conservative assumptions and becomes very compelling at current gold prices. The 2025 feasibility study shows ~22% IRR and ~CA$943M after-tax NPV (5%) at US$2,400 gold, with costs around ~US$1,150/oz AISC.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At spot prices closer to US$4,500+, the NPV expands materially (into multi-billion territory), creating strong torque to gold. That convexity is exactly what you want in a development name.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Putting it all together, the investment case is straightforward:&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;You have a permitted, high-grade, district-scale gold system in a Tier-1 jurisdiction, with a clear path to becoming a mid-tier producer and significant leverage to higher gold prices.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The market is effectively being asked to finance the build &#x26;mdash; but in return, you are getting exposure to a long-life asset that could compound value through both production and continued discovery.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264762033_8.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;705&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Before I wrap up, I want to leave you with a few final thoughts on risk management&#x26;hellip;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Stagflation is no longer a risk &#x26;mdash; it&#x27;s starting to take hold across the macro landscape.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;While everyone is focused on the war, they&#x27;re asking the wrong question. The real issue is how long it takes for the US to intervene in the recent surge in interest rates &#x26;mdash; and what that intervention will mean for all major asset classes.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The idea that the Fed can remain hawkish is already unraveling. You can see it in gold forcefully reasserting itself &#x26;mdash; and that move is likely just getting started, regardless of how the war unfolds.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;One last thing before I go&#x26;hellip;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I want to highlight an &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AlfWOT0bSbs&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;interview&#x3C;/a&#x3E; with Carson Block in case you missed it this week.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I agree with most of his views and think it&#x27;s worth carefully considering the following.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;There is a very real risk of a stagflationary environment driven by a meaningful deterioration in labor markets, ultimately leading to a sharp widening in credit spreads. As he pointed out, volatility in credit markets remains far too cheap, which is precisely why these derivatives are so mispriced.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;To be fair, this is a view I&#x27;ve held for some time. Whenever I grow more concerned about broader markets, I tend to express it by adding short exposure to junk spreads &#x26;mdash; typically through puts on JNK or HYG &#x26;mdash; paired with long calls on TLT.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Credit spreads today remain incredibly tight relative to the true cost of capital, in my view. That creates a compelling hedge for a stagflationary outcome &#x26;mdash; where commodity prices stay structurally elevated while the economy slows, further pressured by weakening labor markets.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264762059_9.jpg&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;736&#x22; height=&#x22;438&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Enjoy your day, and if you haven&#x27;t yet suffered through one of my &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGibjutkaXM&#x26;amp;t=603s&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;interviews&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, maybe now is a good moment.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Rackla Metals Inc. (RAK:TSX.V) finds high-grade tungsten potential in Yukon, leveraging historic data and surging demand for a major breakthrough opportunity.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_5123&#x22;&#x3E;Rackla Metals Inc. (RAK:TSX.V)&#x3C;/span&#x3E; &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!RAK-3800174/C/RAK&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;released an update&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 30, 2026, on its newly acquired Lentung Tungsten Property, revealing data compilation for the area.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Rackla has spent the last year digitizing compiled historical data for its 19,600-hectare property, including documentation about surrounding drilling, assays, and technical studies of the site. The company intends to use this data to create 3-D geographical modeling and efficiently target upcoming drilling programs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Lentung Property was previously owned and operated by Union Carbide. The benefit of having infrastructure already in place allows for scale and upside for Rackla. The infrastructure includes &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!RAK-3800174/C/RAK&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x22;. . . 26,000 meters of drilling across 178 holes, identifying 15 tungsten occurrences over a 15-kilometer strike length.&#x22;&#x3C;/a&#x3E; On April 5, 2026, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://aheadoftheherd.com/rackla-plans-10000m-drill-program-at-lentung-tungsten-property-richard-mills/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Ahead of the Herd&#x3C;/em&#x3E; reported&#x3C;/a&#x3E; the finding of another 12 skarn units, saying, &#x22;where the intrusions encounter carbonate rocks like limestone and dolomite, there is potential for tungsten skarn mineralization.&#x22; Historically, the deposits in this area, including the Cantung and Mactung deposits, have ranked among the highest-grade tungsten skarn systems in the world. Data from Union Carbide&#x27;s previous files suggests a high-grade deposit with open-pit potential.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!RAK-3800174/C/RAK&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;According to a Stockwatch.com article&#x3C;/a&#x3E; from March 30, 2026, &#x22;The historical resource estimate by Union Carbide was calculated for three of the 15 tungsten occurrences on the Lened property and ranks as one of the highest-grade tungsten skarn deposits in the world according to the United States Geological Survey ranking of tungsten skarn deposits.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Rackla Metals Inc. is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on mining rare earth, gold, and tungsten in the eastern Yukon and western Northwest Territories in Canada.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Tungsten in High Demand, Short Supply&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Commodity prices have varied recently, in part due to trade tensions between the U.S. and China and the U.S.-Iran War. Tungsten&#x27;s incredible strength and heat tolerance make the metal a highly valuable component of weaponry, including missiles and armor-piercing bullets. Because China is the world&#x27;s largest tungsten producer, and it has stopped shipping to the U.S., a shortage has occurred in America&#x27;s military assets.&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/31/commodities-price-of-tungsten-sulfur-and-helium.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E; Almonty&#x27;s CEO told CNBC&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 31, 2026, &#x22;There&#x27;s no material to stockpile. That&#x27;s probably the biggest change.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 23, Rick Mills from &#x3C;em&#x3E;Ahead of the Herd&#x3C;/em&#x3E; wrote that, &#x22;Outside of China, which accounts for 83% of global supply, there are only a few tungsten mines, making exploration imperative. . . The end result of skyrocketing demand for tungsten, due to militaries rearming and the war in Iran, combined with limited supply, is that the metal has jumped 557% in a little over a year.&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://aheadoftheherd.com/rackla-plans-10000m-drill-program-at-lentung-tungsten-property-richard-mills/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Ahead of the Herd &#x3C;/em&#x3E;went on to write on April 5, 2026&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, that &#x22;Canada&#x27;s only producing tungsten mine, Cantung in the Northwest Territories, closed in 2015.&#x22; This gap in supply leaves room for other companies to attempt tungsten mining in North America.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite already doing well, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/31/commodities-price-of-tungsten-sulfur-and-helium.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;tungsten prices hit a record high of over US$3,000 mid-March&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. &#x22;From ~US$300 per metric tonne unit (a measured equal to 10kg) in early 2025, the price ran to around US$920/mtu in early 2026. By March 20, it hit US$2650/mtu, a full US$400/mtu higher than March 13,&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://stockhead.com.au/resources/tungsten-has-gone-exponential-heres-how-australian-explorers-are-taking-advantage/?utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;utm_campaign=Stockhead%20Morning%20Newsletter-03-24-2026&#x26;amp;utm_content=httpsstockheadcomauresourcestungstenhasgoneexponentialhereshowaustralianexplorersaretakingadvantage&#x26;amp;utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;utm_campaign=AM%20NL%20Mar%2025&#x26;amp;utm_content=AM%20NL%20Mar%2025+CID_daaef33d3b6d7adf5a9eb6d8eb0abf1c&#x26;amp;utm_source=Campaign%20Monitor&#x26;amp;utm_term=Tungsten%20has%20gone%20exponential%20%20heres%20how%20Australian%20explorers%20are%20taking%20advantage&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;wrote Josh Chiat of Stockhead.com&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 25. Chiat went on to comment on access to the metal: &#x22;Have a tungsten mine right now, and the investment will come.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Expert Expects Success&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 31, 2026, Bob Moriarty of 321gold.com gave &#x3C;em&#x3E;Streetwise Reports &#x3C;/em&#x3E;a quote on the company&#x27;s current movement: &#x22;While Rackla&#x27;s 2025 couldn&#x27;t determine the source of the widespread gold their surface exploration program discovered, they did raise CA$10 million while investors were hurling money at good juniors. Rackla has come up with a Plan B backup with a nearby tungsten property with known values. So, one way or another, I expect the 2026 program to be successful.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Rackla Begins New Campaign&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;

[OWNERSHIP_CHART-5123]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The drill core from campaigns in the 70s and 80s remained on the property, allowing Rackla to quickly plan a recovery and resampling this summer.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company will begin conducting archeological and environmental studies to supplement Union Carbide&#x27;s historical studies.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Rackla Metals Inc. has a market cap of CA$22.81 million, with 162.95 million shares outstanding. The company has a 52-week range of CA$0.08-CA$1.00.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

<title>Oil Be Back!</title>
<link>https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/04/06/oil-be-back.html</link>
<description>
      &#x3C;p class=&#x22;articleSource&#x22;&#x3E;
        &#x3C;b&#x3E;Source: &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/04/06/oil-be-back.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22;&#x3E;Michael Ballanger   04/06/2026&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/b&#x3E;
      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Michael Ballanger of GGM Advisory Inc. shares his view on the current state of the markets, specifically looking at oil.&#x3C;p&#x3E;Back in the 1970&#x27;s, as I was toiling diligently within the halls of Saint Louis University to complete my business degree, I witnessed long line-ups of frustrated drivers waiting diligently for the arrival of the tankers to re-fill the empty reservoirs at gas stations around the city. In fact, with then-President Richard Nixon battling to preserve his presidency, the S&#x26;amp;P 500 was in slow but perpetual decline, dropping 41.9% in the same period.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;When I first entered into the Canadian securities industry in the spring of 1977, veteran stock salesman at my firm would relay stories of the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Great Bear Market of 1973-1974&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; when the vast majority of those living the &#x3C;em&#x3E;good life&#x3C;/em&#x3E; in the &#x3C;em&#x3E;Go-Go Sixties&#x3C;/em&#x3E; were forced to sell cottages in Muskoka and homes in Toronto&#x27;s upscale Forest Hill neighbourhood after their clients (and their six-figure incomes) vacated the premises. In fact, as empty were the reservoirs at gas stations in 1974, equally empty were the bank accounts of customers the world over that stayed focused on the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Nifty Fifty&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; group of stocks (IBM, Coca-Cola, and MacDonald&#x27;s), all of which crashed and burned along with the net worth statements of securities executives.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646101902_1.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;222&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I have relayed before the story of a now-defunct brokerage firm, once considered a boutique on Bay Street, that had the most ostentatious of offices proudly situated at Bay and Bloor in 1972, rip out the offices and then state-of-the-art telephone systems only to replace them with a bank of &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;pay phones&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; so that the brokers (now cab drivers) could call what few clients that remained active while they ate their brown-bag lunches, cabs dutifully parked on the street below.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Kiddies with securities licenses today can be found flipping &#x22;AI&#x22; stocks or crypto ETF&#x27;s, happy to use any utterance by a Fed official or an market-obsessed president vaguely tinged with &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;stimulus&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; as an excuse to &#x22;BUY BUY BUY!&#x22; all the while they trot out their business cards with the term &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;wealth manager&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; or &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;retirement specialist&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; or &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;portfolio manager&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22;. Not &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;one&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; of these kiddies has ever endured anything resembling the 1973-74 bear market that mauled investors with little of no respite for twenty one months &#x26;mdash; six-hundred and thirty days of financial agony as loss after loss ate away at savings, nest eggs, and once-mighty retirement accounts.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The look on the faces of salesmen (as opposed to &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;financial advisors&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22;) that endured that horrific period is a telling one as their eyes glaze over and they stare off into the distance while recounting tale after tale of heartbreak and ruin of someone they knew during the &#x3C;em&#x3E;good times&#x3C;/em&#x3E;. While there are some that point to Watergate as the culprit that ushered in the bear, there was really only one perpetrator of the crime and that was a massive spike in the price of oil.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;However, while the explosion in oil prices from $4.00 to $34.00 in the early 70&#x27;s was the initial drivers for inflation, the Fed was behind the curve by about a country mile, failing to take notice of the escalating gold price which had been freed from its dollar peg by Nixon in 1971. As Americans struggled to keep their cars on the road without sacrificing their grocery budget or mortgage payment, there were a group of very savvy investors that were able to quickly make the transition from &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;blue-chip brokers&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; to &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;resource players&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; such that by the time I joined the industry in 1977, there salesmen driving the big new cars and buying all the power-of-sale cottages in Muskoka were wearing Stetsons and talking about &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;West Pembina&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; and &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Dome Petroleums&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; while seated inconspicuously at the back of the brokerage bullpen. Adorned in tweed or leather blazers and wearing colourful ties or ascots, there were no pin-striped suits or Buster Brown shoes and &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;nobody&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; talked about bonds or blue-chip stocks. The action was in the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;junior oils&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; and to a lesser degree in the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;gold miners&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; (particularly the South Afrikaan gold miners) that were all rising as quickly as were the prices for oil and gold and the U.S. inflation rate.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646101931_2.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Today in April 2026, CNBC is still locked in the daily drone of coverage for all of the companies that led investors during the bull market that actually ended in October of 2025. Sadly, as is the case with all bull markets that end, investors (and the financial news media) are still anchored in past glories and bygone victories. In fact, on Friday, I heard an analyst still talking about the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;AI buildout&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; some five months after &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_10904&#x22;&#x3E;Nvidia Corp. (NVDA:NASDAQ)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;hit its all-time high above $212. Down 6.48% year-to-date and 16.40% from its ATH, the poster child for the last bull market is barking a different story as missiles fly in the Middle East.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;If there is one lesson taught with cruel intent and debilitating discipline, it is that one should &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;never&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; stay too long at any party, particularly one that has the host walking around constantly telling you what a great time you (and everyone else) is/are having as you are weaving your way to the lavatory to relieve yourself of some Russian caviar and French champagne. That is &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;exactly&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; what CNBC does every day of the week. They are constantly reminding investors of &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;what is working&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; or, in other words, &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;what you&#x27;re missing&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; as the colour commentators (nee &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;book pumpers&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22;) hold centre stage.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I cite as a perfect example of the CNBC playbook the example of oil and gas stocks thus far in 2026.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;All through the month of January, you could find nary a segment in which CNBC (or Bloomberg, for that matter) covered the energy names. If anyone mentioned Exxon or Haliburton, they were summarily dismissed as being &#x22;irrelevant&#x22; because a) no one cares and b) there were zero oil &#x26;amp; gas advertisers filling CNBC&#x27;s coffers (with vastly more emphasis on (b) than (a)). Then as suddenly as hypersonic missile hit U.S. bases in the Middle East, oil was at $120 with CNBC dusting off ancient Rolodexes to try to hunt down somebody &#x26;mdash; &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;anybody&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; &#x26;mdash; that could talk quasi-intelligently about &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;energy&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646101959_3.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This a classic example of why outlets like CNBC should be avoided like the Bubonic plague; they are 100% &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;reactive&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; and 0% &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;predictive&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; to market-impacting events. I hold out as evidence the case of gold-versus-Bitcoin in January. The precious metals have been outperforming &#x3C;strong&#x3E;Bitcoin&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; for what seems like ages while in reality, the break started only last October. Yet despite this obvious outperformance by gold (and even greater using the gold mining stocks), CNBC continues to trot out crypto &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;experts&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; like Tom Lee hour after hour and day after day who constantly prattle on about &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;dollar cost averaging&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; and &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;long-term returns&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; whereas phrases like &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;crushing it&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; and &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;face-ripping rally&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; (in reference to owning Bitcoin) are now absent from the discussion. If I am able to listen to the CEO of &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_2&#x22;&#x3E;Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (AEM:TSX; AEM:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; or &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_457&#x22;&#x3E;Newmont Corp. (NEM:NYSE; NGT:TSX; NEM:ASX)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; as much as once in the &#x3C;u&#x3E;quarter&#x3C;/u&#x3E; let alone the &#x3C;u&#x3E;month&#x3C;/u&#x3E;, it would go down in MSM history books.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;So, it is now the second quarter of 2026 and the Middle East is ablaze while oil hums along at $112/bbl. The last time there as an oil shock anywhere close to this one it brought on a 25% drop in the S&#x26;amp;P 500 against a 35% spike in oil. That was in 2022-2023 after the Russians made their move on the Ukraine followed by then-President Biden stealing their U.S. dollar reserves.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646102027_4.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Fast forward to April 2026 and we have the mighty S&#x26;amp;P 500 off a paltry 6% from its all-time high registered on January 28&#x3C;sup&#x3E;th&#x3C;/sup&#x3E; at 7,002.28. Oil is up &#x3C;strong&#x3E;105.5% &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;in the same time period, an advance over three times the advance in 2021-2022.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Now retrograde to 1973-1974 with oil rising over &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;eightfold&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; due to the Arab Oil Embargo and consider the 41.9% drop during that oil-inspired bear market.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646102047_5.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As an arbiter of global growth and economic health, I entitled this missive &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Oil be back!&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; so as I am mulling over the tone and content of my current portfolio, I am forced kicking and screaming to look at the measly 6% feather-dusting of the S&#x26;amp;P 500 against the sledgehammer pounding in 1973-1974 and wonder what happens to failed automakers like &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_2600&#x22;&#x3E;Tesla Inc. (TSLA:NASDAQ)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E; &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;when markets finally wake up. I am always drawn to statements repeated over and over &#x3C;em&#x3E;ad nauseum&#x3C;/em&#x3E; from &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;legendary investor Warren Buffett&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; where he states that &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;you won&#x27;t find out who is swimming naked until after the tide goes out&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; as an obvious allegory to finding out which companies are real and which companies are &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;phonies&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; only after the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;irrational exuberance&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; vacates markets. &#x3C;strong&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; has been riding the wave of cult-follower exuberance as those who view Elon Musk as the arrival of the next Messiah continue to bid up shares of his failed (and failing) EV manufacturer. On Thursday, I watched with glee as the company once again missed its number delivering &#x3C;strong&#x3E;358,023 vehicles&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; in Q1 2026, falling short of the analyst consensus of roughly &#x3C;strong&#x3E;368,000 to 381,000 units&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;. The company produced &#x3C;strong&#x3E;408,386 vehicles&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;, leaving a gap of more than &#x3C;strong&#x3E;50,000 unsold cars&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; added to its inventory. (Analysts view this &#x22;inventory build&#x22; as a sign of softening demand and a growing imbalance between supply and sales.)&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;CNBC has colour commentators continually chirping up the &#x22;Elon Effect&#x22; day after gruelling day resulting in regularly-scheduled short squeezes rescuing moving average trend lines and other technical support levels with mind-numbing frequency and predictability. However, on Thursday as the investing world headed into Good Friday and the Easter long weekend, markets &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;punished&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; Mr. Musk and the indestructability of his brand by slamming &#x3C;strong&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; by 5.42% on the session making the YTD decline now 17.34%.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646102113_6.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;375&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;For me, &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; represents everything I absolutely &#x3C;em&#x3E;loathe&#x3C;/em&#x3E; about today&#x27;s markets. This is a classic case of group manipulation where the government chooses a prodigal son (like Elon) and anoints him with anti-regulatory immunity and then holds him out as a shining example of American ingenuity and entrepreneurialism while he violates rule after rule while in total defiance of regulatory requirements and corporate governance.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Why?&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It is because for all his faults, flaws, and foibles, Elon makes people money and a great deal of it. Because investors care not a whit as to the &#x22;how&#x22; (he makes his dough), they care only about the &#x22;how many&#x22;, as in, dollars he puts in their pockets with his antics which have gone from the ridiculous to the sublime in recent months.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646102141_7.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;375&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As a self-confessed bear on shares in &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; (I own the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;T-Rex 2X&#x27;s Inverse Tesla Daily Target&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; ETF &#x3C;strong&#x3E;(TSLZ:US)&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;), I have told subscribers that they should probably ignore my predilection for pain because I have ridden this ETF from $27 to under $10 and after averaging down (with great trepidation and ample doses of Jack Daniels and Percocet), I am now only mildly underwater but more optimistic today than I have been at ay time in the past year.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I have told subscribers that I own it &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;on principle alone&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; and that I will &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;not&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; cover until I watch &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; break down through $100. Since it closed at $360.59, the funny sounds you are hearing out there are the shrieks of laughter from my subscriber base when they read that I am calling for &#x22;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;sub-$100&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x22; on the world&#x27;s most overpriced automaker whose lunch is being heartily consumed by competitors &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;BYD&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E; and &#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Xiaomi&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E; (&#x3C;/em&#x3E;both Chinese).&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As is always the case when this writer becomes obsessed with a whacked-out idea &#x26;mdash; &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;caveat emptor&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Gold Price&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646102215_8.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;272&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Shifting to the metals, followers of this author will find it no surprise that I have been a stalwart bull on the gold market since launching the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;GGM Advisory&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; back in 2020. I exited the senior and junior gold ETF&#x27;s far too early in 2024 but remained long a basket of the junior gold and junior copper developers until last month when I bit the bullet hard (almost breaking two molars and one incisor) and bought June call options on both the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;GDX:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; and the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;GDXJ:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;, two ETF&#x27;s that have over the years treated me lavishly.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;When asked why I would make such an insane move when it is so obvious that we have seen &#x22;generational highs&#x22; in both gold and silver in January, I responded by pointing to the chart of gold from 1920 until today, drawing reference to the mid-70&#x27;s when a 50% correction took gold down from $190 to $100 in a couple of months before resuming its bullish configuration. Non-believers back then took handsome profits from the lows of $35 in 1971 by generating a 5.71 times return. However, if one bought the lows in 1976, they took a ride of 8.57 times their investment by 1980. I believe that the recent correction from $5,626 to $4,138 (&#x26;infin; 25%) was enough to qualify as a &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;mid-course correction&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; in the journey to much higher prices.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I have never veered from my conviction that the 8,133 metric tonnes of gold allegedly held in trust by the Federal Reserve will be revalued in order to collateralize the massive (and growing) national debt estimated to be today approaching USD $40 trillion. Representing some 286 million ounces of gold, to fully back that debt with the U.S. gold reserve, the price would need to be pegged at USD at $139,860 per ounce. Now, perhaps a less-rabid figure of 10% of the national debt might be somewhat less &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;controversial&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; but even at that, it comes to $13,986 per ounce, a figure roughly three times the current price. As a comparative, when I launched the first Forecast Issue back in January 2020, the 10% figure was $8,741 per ounce with gold quoted at around USD $1,500 per ounce. The gold price required to back 10% of the current debt load has risen 600% in six years which is a sad and very disturbing testimonial to the state of America&#x27;s balance sheet.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As a result, I started with the VanEck Senior Gold Miner ETF &#x3C;strong&#x3E;(GDX:US)&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; putting out a &#x22;BUY&#x22; the weekend of March 20&#x3C;sup&#x3E;th&#x3C;/sup&#x3E; and actually taking a position in the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;GDX June $75 calls &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;at $10. I followed up later that week with the Van Eck Junior Miners ETF &#x3C;strong&#x3E;(GDXJ:US)&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; &#x3C;strong&#x3E;June $115 &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;calls at $10 while missing my entry level for the actual entry for the ETF&#x27;s themselves.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646102245_9.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;570&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The chart shown above was posted on Friday March 20&#x3C;sup&#x3E;th&#x3C;/sup&#x3E; and you can see that the price action was indeed vintage &#x3C;em&#x3E;&#x22;bottoming action&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; with RSI sub-30, and MACD and MFI plunging into deeply oversold territory at the time. That, coupled with the absolute delight by financial commentators the world over, spelled &#x22;BUY&#x22;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Longer-term, while the correction was shorter and of milder amplitude than 1976, I believe in principle that it was what was required in order to augment and extend the bull market that began in earnest on December 4&#x3C;sup&#x3E;th&#x3C;/sup&#x3E; 2015 at $1,045 per ounce. Why do I know this? For the first time since the creation of CNBC in 1988, the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Cartoon Network&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; was covering gold and particularly silver every day on an &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;hourly&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;basis&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; for the last two weeks in January while it was apparent that none of the anchors or colour commentators (except Guy Adami and Rick Santelli) owned as much as a sliver of either metal. That was the ultimate tip-off but the concrete confirmation came in the first few days of February when the entire CNBC newsroom was cheering at the crash in silver, failing to mention that even after the crash, silver was still outperforming the S&#x26;amp;P by a fairly wide margin. Time, as they say, to &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;back up the truck&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22;, which I did.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202646102310_10.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As for the was in the Middle East, the markets listened to the boasting, bragging, bluster, and bravado of the American president on Wednesday evening and decided that it was not all as advertised because they took stocks apart on Thursday morning. However, as the day wore on, it became apparent to many that the American resolve is starting to flag as Trump told the world that &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;it will all be over in 2-3 weeks&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; so as markets are prone to do, they started to look out to a post-war scenario of weakening economies, higher inflation, fewer rate cuts and a burgeoning U.S. budget deficit and determined that what this virtually guaranteed, rather than a recession, was the arrival of the highly predictable &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;fiscal stimulus&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; that literally always materializes before the bear market cancer can metastasize.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;For those bears out there, remember that lower economic activity during recessionary periods equals lower tax revenues and with the problem being faced by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, recession is &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;not&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; an option. Since stimulus equals more debasement, a lower dollar and higher commodities are in the cards and on the table. I reject the call for a return of the &#x3C;em&#x3E;&#x22;Thundering Herd&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; once this stimulus arrives because we have been seeing this gradual but accelerating rotation out of tech (AI and Crypto) into hard assets since last fall. I see any new stimulus initiatives lighting a fire under the metals, food, and natural gas (which is cheap) rather than the ones that &#x22;worked&#x22; during the post-April lovefest last year...&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite the longer-term bearish implications for stocks brought about by the oil spike, the short-term will be dominated by policy moves by the White House aimed at winning the November mid-terms and these policy moves will be centred around a rising stock market and global growth. The sacrificial lambs will be the U.S. dollar and long-term bonds which make it a breeding ground for the gold bugs, an environment well-covered by the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;GGM Advisory&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As you are sitting down for Easter dinner this weekend, remember that old and wonderful Irish prayer: &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;May I find myself in Heaven one hour before the Devil knows I&#x27;m dead.&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Algo Grande Copper Corp. (ALGR:TSX.V) reveals a large copper-silver-gold skarn system in Sonora, with porphyry upside and Phase 2 drilling set to drive growth.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11488?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Algo Grande Copper Corp. (ALGR:TSX.V) &#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;has released results from its Cerro Grande Skarn Phase 1 drill program, part of the company&#x27;s Adelita Project in Sonora, Mexico. On April 2, 2026,&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.accessnewswire.com/newsroom/en/business-and-professional-services/algo-grande-reports-results-from-completed-phase-i-drill-program-1154479&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E; &#x3C;em&#x3E;Access Newswire &#x3C;/em&#x3E;reported&#x3C;/a&#x3E; assay results from the company&#x27;s exploration of the three remaining drill holes in its inaugural drilling program.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Algo Grande&#x27;s earlier tests suggested a thicker skarn than originally anticipated, so the company drilled further and &#x22;confirm[ed] the presence of an outcropping, vertically extensive copper-silver-gold skarn system, with increasing evidence supporting a genetically related porphyry system at depth,&#x22; according to &#x3C;em&#x3E;Access Newswire&#x3C;/em&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Holes AG_GC_001 through AG_GC_004 were tested, with mineralization present in all four, though hole AG_GC_003 was the most promising, even though the company could not reach the target zone due to drilling deviation.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.accessnewswire.com/newsroom/en/business-and-professional-services/algo-grande-reports-results-from-completed-phase-i-drill-program-1154479&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Algo Grande&#x27;s report stated&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, &#x22;Several molybdenum-bearing intervals &#x3C;em&#x3E;(AG_GC_002: 288.40 m to 289.44 - 1.04 m @ 1440 Mo; 333.0m to 333.8m - 0.8 @ 2820 Mo; 545.83m - 546.35 0.52m @ 1000 ppm Mo; AG_GC_004: 274.5 -275.4 0.9m @ 521 ppm Mo)&#x3C;/em&#x3E; have been identified across the drill holes, with values reaching up to 2,820 ppm on AG_GC_002 and above 500ppm on AG_GC_004. These intervals are spatially distinct from the highest-grade copper-silver-gold skarn mineralization and are commonly associated with intrusive phases, including andesitic porphyry fingers and potassic alteration halos around quartz-calcite veins.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;These discoveries have led the company to launch a district-scale exploration across the Adelita Project, with the Phase 2 drill program scheduled to begin in May of this year. The program will focus on expanding known skarn horizons and testing porphyry targets with deeper drilling. The company also hopes to test newly defined district-scale targets.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Algo Grande Copper Corp. is a Canadian exploration company focused on testing overlooked, potentially high-value properties in North America, with current projects centered in Mexico. The company partners with Megaw Exploration Associates (MXA) for operational support.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Potential Copper Values Amid War&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;While discussing metal values in the wake of the U.S.-Iran War on April 1, 2026, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.livewiremarkets.com/wires/strong-commodity-prices-suggest-sell-off-in-mining-stocks-overdone?shem=dsdf,sharefoc,agadiscoversdl,,sh/x/discover/m1/4&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Barry Fitzgerald of Livewire Markets discussed copper&#x27;s future&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. &#x22;Copper in particular seems well placed despite a stock build-up due to non-war factors. China, the biggest copper consumer, has reported stronger growth, and Chile, the world&#x27;s biggest producer, has reported its lowest copper output in nine years.&#x22; He acknowledged that copper is currently sitting at a historically high price despite its drop in the past week.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;President Trump announced a &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.mining.com/web/trump-revamps-steel-aluminum-copper-tariffs-but-keeps-50-rate/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;restructuring of metals tariffs&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on Thursday, April 2, 2026. The goal was to simplify the importation process for suppliers by lowering tariffs for goods with copper, steel, or aluminum below 15% and foreign goods using entirely American-made metals at 10%.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The market temporarily adjusted to this news. &#x22;Comex copper rose as much as 1.4% right after the announcement before giving back the gain to trade 0.5% lower late afternoon Thursday in the U.S.,&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.mining.com/web/trump-revamps-steel-aluminum-copper-tariffs-but-keeps-50-rate/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;according to Bloomberg News&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on April 2, 2026.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On April 4, Chen Lin of &#x3C;em&#x3E;What is Chen Buying? What is Chen Selling?&#x3C;/em&#x3E; reported that, &#x22;Copper remained broadly stable during the week, edging up 0.8%, after indications that the U.S.-Iran conflict could be resolved within a few weeks, coupled with a softer dollar. However, the broader trend remains cautious.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

Sinn stated he had used the recent market correction to initiate a position in Algo Grande&#x27;s shares.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;sup&#x3E;1&#x3C;/sup&#x3E;Even before the company&#x27;s announcement on Phase 1 results, &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/02/17/a-phase-two-copper-gold-drill-program-and-bullish-charts-is-it-time-to-buy.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Technical Analyst Stewart Thomson shared his opinion on Algo Grande&#x3C;/a&#x3E; in a February 17, 2026, contributed opinion for &#x3C;em&#x3E;Streetwise Reports&#x3C;/em&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Thomson called the company&#x27;s limited number of shares outstanding and percentage of insiders and strategic investors in the stock &#x27;impressive&#x27;, giving a &#x27;Speculative Buy&#x27; rating. He projected Algo Grande&#x27;s stock to have a short-term technical price target of CA$1.00 and a long-term technical price target of CA$6.00. The stock is trading at CA$0.68 as of April 6, 2026.

These plans will occur in conjunction with licensing a wide Lidar Survey and a Drone Magnetic Survey. &#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In Q3 and Q4, the company intends to initiate Phase 2 on the Cerro Grande site via a 10,000-meter drill program targeting skarn zones with the highest potential and completing metallurgical sampling in the same area. At the same time, Algo Grande plans to use this year&#x27;s fieldwork findings to finalize porphyry and secondary target definitions at Metzquital and Las Trancas.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

<title>Gold&#x26;#39;s Worst Month Ever Is a Buying Opportunity</title>
<link>https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/04/02/golds-worst-month-ever-is-a-buying-opportunity.html</link>
<description>
      &#x3C;p class=&#x22;articleSource&#x22;&#x3E;
        &#x3C;b&#x3E;Source: &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/04/02/golds-worst-month-ever-is-a-buying-opportunity.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22;&#x3E;Dominic Frisby   04/02/2026&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/b&#x3E;
      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Dominic Frisby of The Flying Frisby explains why he still thinks gold is heading to US$10,000. &#x3C;p&#x3E;You&#x27;ve probably heard: gold has just had the worst month in its history.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Given that &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://open.substack.com/pub/frisby/p/your-definitive-guide-to-buying-and?utm_campaign=post-expanded-share&#x26;amp;utm_medium=web&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;gold&#x3C;/a&#x3E; is older than the Earth itself, that&#x27;s quite a long history.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;What headline writers actually mean, even if they don&#x27;t know it, is that: in US dollar terms, gold just had its worst month since 1971, at a stretch 1789.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But the US dollar is a bogus, fiat measure, and the sooner we start using constant money as our unit of account, the more truthful the world will become.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.theflyingfrisby.com/p/has-gold-already-peaked&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Gold&#x3C;/a&#x3E; hasn&#x27;t changed. It doesn&#x27;t. What has swung, violently as ever, is the price of fiat.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The move looks more extreme than it is because of where the month started. Gold began March near a high, around $5,400, and then sold off hard. A thousand-dollar swing sounds a lot, but after the run we&#x27;ve just had, it&#x27;s not especially surprising. Indeed, I would go as far as to say it&#x27;s normal.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Here is a 3-year chart of gold to put the March move in some perspective. I&#x27;ve also added a very useful indicator &#x26;mdash; the 233-day exponential moving average &#x26;mdash; in red.&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;233 is a Fibonacci number, and with roughly 250 trading days in a year, the 233 EMA works out as roughly the one-year average, but with the added magical quality that Fibonacci numbers often seem to have. In this case, it caught the exact bottom, as you can see.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/20264665841_1.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;700&#x22; height=&#x22;500&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;What effectively has happened is that after a long run-up, gold has pulled back to the one-year average and bounced off it.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;What we&#x27;re seeing is normal behavior in a secular bull market.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Corrections feel violent at the time. They always do. But this is what bull markets do.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;My &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.theflyingfrisby.com/p/has-gold-already-peaked?r=1o6vt&#x26;amp;utm_campaign=post&#x26;amp;utm_medium=web&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;view remains unchanged&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. We are somewhere in the middle of a multi-year move that ultimately takes gold into the $7,000 to $10,000 range.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The bigger point is not the chart, it&#x27;s the backdrop. I keep saying it, but you absolutely must own some gold in your portfolio, particularly if you are in the UK, indeed anywhere in Western Europe. We have big, big problems coming down the tracks, and they are going to result in the further debasement of the national currency.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Debt levels are rising, not falling. Governments are spending more, not less. The cost of servicing that debt is going up. The political incentives all point one way: more issuance, more intervention, more currency debasement.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The UK is a particularly clear example. You can already see the strain in the gilt market, the pressure on public finances, and the complete lack of both political will and ability to address it in any meaningful way. No party is going to fix this. The system itself is broken.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;There is only one way fiat money is going, and it&#x27;s the same way it&#x27;s always gone.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Treat pullbacks like this for what they are: opportunities.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;If you don&#x27;t own gold, you are relying entirely on a monetary system that is under visible strain. That in itself is a bet, whether you realize it or not.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;header-anchor-post&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Onto More Positive News &#x26;mdash; Or Is It? Squeaky Bum Time in Nicaragua&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;My largest position, and a core holding for many readers, is &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_8687&#x22;&#x3E;Metals Exploration Plc (MTL:LON)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Broker Hannam has just put a 37p price target on this 13p stock, implying roughly 3x upside. The current market cap is about &#x26;pound;400 million.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The share price has pulled back sharply after its recent run to 19p to around 12&#x26;ndash;13p, largely tracking the ups and downs of gold.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company has just issued a construction update, following a recent site visit to the main project in Nicaragua, La India, attended by major shareholders including Nick Candy.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Execution is everything now, and it&#x27;s squeaky bum time.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The existing Runruno mine in the Philippines should produce around 50,000 oz in 2026. At $4,500 gold, that&#x27;s about $225m of revenue. Using current cost guidance, that likely translates to $140m&#x26;ndash;$160m operating cash before overheads, and something like $80m&#x26;ndash;$90m after tax, G&#x26;amp;A, and other costs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;That is strong cash generation, but it is not permanent. Runruno is a depleting asset. The ore body runs out late this year or early next, with closure likely in Q1 2027. Drilling at nearby Dupax has not delivered enough material to extend its life, so the mine shuts down.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company will be left with a processing plant that can potentially be redeployed, but that raises the obvious: what project, where, and how much?&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;La India capex has now risen to $171m from $165m (it was forecast at $120m at acquisition, that&#x27;s inflation, among other things, for you). The latest increase is mainly down to electrical infrastructure costs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;With $41m in the bank at the end of 2025 in addition to the Runruno revenue, funding is super tight. There is a $30m gold prepay facility (currently undrawn) and a $20m equipment loan in progress. It is marginal - hence the squeaky bum - but it does look fully funded, assuming Runruno delivers as expected.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The key positive is that the mine build is real and progressing. The project is about 42% complete against a planned 35%. The first gold pour is still targeted for December 2026. The crusher is installed, mill foundations are largely done, CIL (leaching) tanks are progressing, site infrastructure is about 77% complete, and the tailings facility is underway. Around 95,000 tonnes of ore are already stockpiled against a target of 500,000 tonnes, and pre-stripping is about 38% complete. That all reduces ramp-up risk.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;There are two obvious vulnerabilities.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The first is the elution plant (the heat recovery circuit, which strips the gold off the carbon after it has been captured in processing). It arrives in Q3 and takes about two months to install. Any delays and the gold pour is delayed. Simples.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The second is power. The plant needs a stable grid connection and a substation in place before commissioning. A favorable deal with the Nicaraguan grid operator reduces cost and helps de-risk things, but it is still not entirely within the company&#x27;s control.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Production guidance is now more conservative at 100,000 oz in 2027 rather than the previously touted 140,000 oz. That is probably realistic. Mines rarely hit peak output straight out of the gate.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But what we have here is a transition from a single, depleting asset to a new core asset, with exploration upside on top if things go well.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;To get the re-rating, MTL needs to deliver La India on time, broadly on budget, and without too many operational mishaps. That sounds obvious, but many mining projects fail on at least one of those. There is also the jurisdictional risk. Nicaragua.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But if MTL delivers, a company producing 100,000 oz a year at costs around $1,500/oz is not a &#x26;pound;400 million company. It&#x27;s bigger.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It gets even more valuable if exploration success takes this to a district scale. Which is what we are hoping for.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It&#x27;s squeaky bum time, but I think we&#x27;re going to be ok.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	H.C. Wainwright initiated coverage on Atlas Critical Minerals Corp. (ATCX; NASDAQ), with a Buy rating and US$13.75 price target, highlighting the company&#x27;s large-scale rare earth, titanium, and graphite claims in Brazil as a key beneficiary of Western supply chain diversification away from China.&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;H.C. Wainwright initiated coverage on &#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_11215&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11215?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Atlas Critical Minerals Corp. (ATCX; NASDAQ)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E; on April 6, 2026, with a Buy rating and a price target of US$13.75, representing approximately 142% upside to the April 2, 2026, share price of US$5.69.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The firm views ATCX as uniquely positioned to benefit from the structural shift in global critical minerals supply chains, citing the company&#x27;s large-scale rare earth, titanium, and graphite land package in Brazil and its early-stage but revenue-generating operations.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Company Overview&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation, formerly Jupiter Gold Corp. prior to its December 2024 rebrand, is a mineral exploration and development company headquartered in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The company controls over 218,000 hectares of mineral rights across Minas Gerais and Goi&#x26;aacute;s, targeting rare earth elements (REE), titanium, and graphite. Under the leadership of CEO Marc Fogassa, who simultaneously serves as Chairman and CEO of sister company Atlas Lithium Corporation (ATLX &#x26;ndash; Nasdaq; Buy, US$12.50 PT), the analyst believes ATCX is well-positioned to navigate the exploration-to-production process in Brazil.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Key Projects and Exploration Results&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;ATCX&#x27;s flagship asset is the Alto Parana&#x26;iacute;ba Project in Minas Gerais, covering approximately 53,692 acres of mineral rights with a dual-commodity profile of high-grade REE and titanium. An initial drill program consisting of 13 holes totaling 144 meters and 178 analyzed samples returned highlights including 28,870 ppm Total Rare Earth Oxides (TREO) and 16.5% TiO&#x26;#8322; from a single surface sample. Notably, the use of thermal pre-treatment (roasting) produced recovery rates of 97.0% for Magnetic Rare Earth Elements (MREE), 95.2% for Light Rare Earth Elements (LREE), and 93.8% for Total Rare Earth Elements plus Yttrium (TREY), all materially above the 70&#x26;ndash;85% industry norm. Management currently estimates an average resource grade of approximately 4,818 ppm TREO and anticipates a total resource in excess of 2,000 Mt, with the company&#x27;s maiden Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) expected in late 2026.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The Ipor&#x26;aacute; Rare Earths Project in Goi&#x26;aacute;s spans approximately 46,000 acres across 12 mineral rights within the Goi&#x26;aacute;s Alkaline Province, an area also home to the Serra Verde rare earth mine, described as one of the only integrated REE operations outside of China. A field campaign conducted in mid-2025 returned up to 3,822 ppm TREO over 1 meter with metallurgical recoveries exceeding 60% for critical magnet rare earth oxides.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The Malacacheta Graphite Project in Minas Gerais, covering 1,258 hectares, has produced graphite with 99.9995% carbon purity through non-chemical thermal refinement, meeting nuclear-grade specifications. The analyst notes that nuclear-grade graphite commands a significant pricing premium, estimated at US$25,000&#x26;ndash;US$35,000 per tonne versus US$2,000&#x26;ndash;US$2,400 for standard high-quality flake graphite, representing a 10&#x26;ndash;15x pricing opportunity.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Revenue-Generating Operations&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;A key differentiator for ATCX relative to standard junior explorers is its existing revenue base. The Rio Piracicaba iron ore asset in Minas Gerais operates under a lease arrangement whereby Vale serves as operator, handling all haulage and processing in exchange for royalty payments to ATCX. The site contains approximately 7.9 Mt of iron ore resources, and the company currently generates roughly US$1.2 million per year from this royalty arrangement.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Operations commenced in late 2025, and management has initiated a process to expand the site&#x27;s environmental license from 300,000 tonnes per year to 1.5 million tonnes per year. The company also owns a quartzite operation in Minas Gerais that was paused in 2025 but remains fully permitted, with production expected to resume in the near term.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Geopolitical Backdrop and Brazil&#x27;s Strategic Position&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The analyst places significant emphasis on Brazil&#x27;s role as a global critical minerals supplier. Brazil holds the world&#x27;s second-largest reserves of REEs, estimated at 21.0 million tonnes, and graphite, estimated at 74.0 million tonnes &#x26;mdash; making it the only country besides China with REE reserves exceeding 10.0 million tonnes.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The analyst highlights ongoing discussions between the U.S. and Brazil regarding a formal critical minerals partnership, noting that China&#x27;s aggressive rare earth export restrictions in late 2024 have accelerated Western interest in alternative supply chains. Brazil&#x27;s energy grid, powered by approximately 88% renewable energy, is cited as an additional advantage for ESG-focused Western buyers.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Valuation&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;H.C. Wainwright&#x27;s price target of US$13.75 is derived through a net asset value (NAV) framework. The primary driver is a conservative US$0.10 per tonne valuation applied to an estimated 770.2 Mt potential resource at Alto Parana&#x26;iacute;ba, yielding US$77.0 million. The firm also applies a DCF to iron ore royalty revenues, producing a present value of approximately US$8.3 million, and assigns a fixed value of US$50.0 million to the Malacacheta and Ipor&#x26;aacute; projects.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;After adding cash of US$8.4 million and netting US$0.75 million in debt, total NAV reaches approximately US$143.0 million. Applying a 0.6x NAV multiple to account for the asset base&#x27;s early-stage nature results in an attributable NAV of approximately US$85.8 million, or US$13.75 per share on a fully diluted basis of 6.2 million shares.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Recent Developments&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;On January 8, 2026, ATCX raised approximately US$11.0 million in gross proceeds through an IPO on the Nasdaq at US$8.00 per share, with US$1.0 million earmarked for drilling and studies at Malacacheta, US$500,000 for work at Alto Parana&#x26;iacute;ba and Ipor&#x26;aacute;, and the balance supporting working capital.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;On March 10, 2026, ATCX announced the consolidation of an 11-kilometer graphite corridor. On January 26, 2026, the company reported high metallurgical recoveries via its roasting method. The stock previously reached a high of US$43.20 on October 6, 2025, before declining due to limited liquidity and dilution from the public offering.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Risks&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The analyst identifies four primary risks: (1) liquidity risk stemming from the capital-intensive nature of exploration; (2) currency risk given ATCX&#x27;s primary operations in Brazil and exposure to BRL/USD fluctuations; (3) technical risk, as there is no guarantee that viable mineral resources can be defined or converted to mineable reserves; and (4) commodity price risk, as valuations for iron ore, rare earths, and graphite remain outside the company&#x27;s control and are subject to macroeconomic factors.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Upcoming Catalysts&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The analyst identifies the maiden MRE for Alto Parana&#x26;iacute;ba, expected in late 2026, as the primary near-term catalyst. Additional exploration updates from Malacacheta and Ipor&#x26;aacute;, growth in iron ore royalty revenues, and progress on the option agreement to acquire 60 additional mineral rights from Atlas Lithium covering copper, gold, nickel, graphite, REE, and titanium are also cited as potential positive catalysts.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

        &#x3C;b&#x3E;Source: &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/04/06/new-plan-for-pan-american-mine-forecasts-massive-silver-profits.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22;&#x3E;Adrian Day   04/06/2026&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/b&#x3E;
      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Global Analyst Adrian Day shares his thoughts on some developments with companies on his list.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_521&#x22;&#x3E;Pan American Silver Corp. (PAAS:TSX; PAAS:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; released a revised Preliminary Economic Assessment of La Colorada Skarn deposit, transforming the huge project to smaller but lower-risk project with lower capex and higher leverage to silver. Using byproduct credit accounting, costs for the silver would be negative.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Significantly, the revised plans, unlike the 2023 study, will not use block caving (a positive since few companies have expertise in that mining method), and also does not require a partner. The company had been in discussions with several companies for a partnership, to share the capital, with Pan Am aiming to retain the silver exposure. Pan American can internally fund the entire capex of $1.9 billion.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;CEO Michael Steinmann emphasized that the decision to go to a smaller project was not for lack of potential partner interest, but rather to build a lower-risk project that still delivered silver to the company. Typically, with deposits in Mexico&#x27;s silver belt, there is higher-grade silver and some gold nearer the service, with more lead and zinc as the deposit goes deeper, and eventually copper, as the silver declines. Importantly, the new plan retains the option to expand the project, use block caving, and bring in a partner.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Pan American estimates average silver production from the Skarn of almost 16 million ounces for the first five years, adding to the 3.3 million from the existing La Colorada mine, with a 37-year mine life. It would be operated in conjunction with the existing mine, transforming the combined La Colorada mine into one of the largest and lowest-cost silver mines in the world.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;After the first five years, production for the combined mine, drops to an average of 11 million annual ounces for the next 10 years, before declining for the rest of the mine life. Pan American has not yet targeted a date for production from the Skarn, but Steinmann said it will likely be &#x22;in or after 2027&#x22;. The revised project represents about 5% of Pan American&#x27;s NAV.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;We are holding.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Barrick to Slow Pakistan Project&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_20&#x22;&#x3E;Barrick Mining Corp. (ABX:TSX; B:NYSE) &#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;is to slow development of Reko Diq, the massive copper project in Pakistan, according to an article in the Financial Times. According to the FT, Barrick has notified its partners of the decision, which was due to regional conflicts, the Pakistan-Afghanistan war, as well as the conflict in Iran, and specifically on-site security issues. Barrick confirmed the slowdown, adding it was extending the period for its review of the project until mid-2027. The slowdown may be a preliminary step towards a sale of Barrick&#x27;s interest.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Analysts expected a positive market response, since the project is not popular with institutional investors and was the primary cause of Barrick&#x27;s relative undervaluation, leading to the proposal for an IPO of part of its North American business. The stock&#x27;s response, however, was neither positive nor significant.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Hold.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Metalla&#x27;s Growth Gets Underway&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_9175&#x22;&#x3E;Metalla Royalty &#x26;amp; Streaming Ltd. (MTA:TSX.V; MTA:NYSE American)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; released annual financials, broadly in line with expectations after pre-releasing GEOs and preliminary revenue. G&#x26;amp;A expenses increased by about 27% over 2024, more than I had expected. Some mines on which it holds royalties have experienced slower ramp-ups than expected, but slowly the growth is coming into view. The company is guiding between 3,500 and 4,500 ounces for this year, which at the mid-point represents 16% growth on last year. Growth will then pick up in 2027.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Metalla is at a self-described inflection point with several major projects hitting milestones, including First Quantum filing an updated technical report on Taca Taca, and IAMGOLD reporting extensive drilling at the Gosselin deposit, an extension to its C&#x26;ocirc;t&#x26;eacute; mine. Metalla ended the year with almost $10 million cash and just over $13 million drawn on its credit facility.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At its lowest price since September, Metalla is a Strong Buy.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Orogen Reports Record Revenue&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_10008&#x22;&#x3E;Orogen Royalties Inc. (OGN:TSXV; OGNNF:OTC)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; reported record revenue of $13 million for the year ending December 31st, up 32% from 2024. Revenue from both the Ermita&#x26;ntilde;o royalty and the company&#x27;s prospect generation activities increased. As of year end, the company has $25.8 million, just slightly from the prior year.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Using production guidance from First Majestic, operator of the Santa Elena complex in Sonora, Mexico, of which Ermita&#x26;ntilde;o is a part, and using Orogen&#x27;s estimate that 90% of this year&#x27;s production will come from its royalty land, Orogen should receive between $7.1 million and $10.3 million in royalty revenue, at the mid-point down about $1 million from last year. (All numbers are in Canadian dollars.)&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Importantly, for the longer-term royalty revenue, First Majestic said it was conducting studies on developing both the Navidad and Santo Ni&#x26;ntilde;o deposits this year. Both of these deposits are largely covered by Orogen royalties and more aggressive development by First Majestic will reduce the scale and length of a revenue drop for Orogen after Ermita&#x26;ntilde;o depletes.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Separately, insiders purchased 61,600 shares in the week from March 13th to 20th at prices between $2.82 and $3.26. It is good to see insiders buying; several directors and management are in the top 10 holders.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Orogen is a Buy.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Ares Capital Hurt by Unaffiliated Fund Woes&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_6312&#x22;&#x3E;Ares Capital Corp. (ARCC:NASDAQ)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; fell sharply after one of the private funds issued by its sponsor, Ares Management, posted its sharpest monthly loss two days after limiting withdrawals from the fund. As discussed before (see Bulletin #1002), Ares Capital is separate from the private funds of Ares Management, but, as discussed, problems at Ares Management&#x27;s private funds would harm perception and provide us with buying opportunities for Ares Capital.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I am not asserting that if the economy deteriorates, Ares could not see lower income, forcing it to cut its dividend. But the yield would still be healthy and the recovery strong. And there is no current indication that Ares will cut its dividend.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At an almost unprecedented discount to NAV (12%) and high yield (11%)&#x26;ndash;wider only in the depths of covid lockdowns and the Great Financial Crisis&#x26;ndash;this represents a buying opportunity for long-term income investors.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Altius&#x27; Arthur Royalty Deposit Advances&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_115&#x22;&#x3E;Altius Minerals Corp. (ALS:TSX)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; received good news when AngloGold announced a technical report on its Arthur Gold Project (formerly Silicon) in Nevada. Last July, Altius sold a 1% royalty on Arthur to Franco-Nevada, retaining 0.5%. Anglo said the study showed &#x22;robust economics and strong potential&#x22;, with All-In Sustaining Costs estimated at $954/oz, adding that the Arthur Project &#x22;is a cornerstone of our strategy to build a world-class, long-life production platform in the U.S.&#x22; Most informed geologists are confident that the project will grow significantly over what has already been discovered and released.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Arthur royalty is but one of several cornerstone assets for Altius, leading us to make it a core holding, though it would look for a pullback to add to positions from this near-record stock price.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;TOP BUYS&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; this week, in addition to those above, include&#x3C;strong&#x3E; &#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_2&#x22;&#x3E;Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (AEM:TSX; AEM:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_2&#x22;&#x3E;,&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E; &#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_527&#x22;&#x3E;Franco-Nevada Corp.

<title>Canadian Miner Uncovers Massive Tungsten Portugal Potential</title>

        &#x3C;b&#x3E;Source: &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/04/02/canadian-miner-uncovers-massive-tungsten-portugal-potential.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22;&#x3E;Streetwise Reports   04/06/2026&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/b&#x3E;
      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Allied Critical Metals Inc. (ACM:CSE;  ACMIF:OTCQB;  0VJ0:FSE) highlights massive tungsten potential in Portugal as prices surge, with growing demand driving upside.&#x3C;p&#x3E;Tungsten, a niche and incredibly strong critical metal, has skyrocketed in price in a &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://finance.yahoo.com/news/tungsten-prices-surge-557-china-131845130.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;557% rally&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://almonty.com/tungsten-history/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;reported at a high of US$3,150/mtu&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 27, 2026. The critical metal price has risen primarily due to trade restrictions from China, the world&#x27;s top tungsten producer, and demands from the U.S.-Iran War. As one of the strongest metals on Earth, tungsten is necessary for waging effective warfare, being used in armor-piercing weaponry and missiles. Even before the U.S.-Iran War began, tungsten was in high demand due to the Russian war with Ukraine.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://investornews.com/critical-minerals-rare-earths/why-tungsten-has-jumped-to-no-1-on-the-worlds-critical-minerals-hot-list/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Investor News&#x3C;/em&#x3E; wrote&#x3C;/a&#x3E; in January of this year that, &#x22;Without tungsten, the modern military-industrial machine quite literally grinds to a halt.&#x22; Tungsten is also critical for creating connections in semiconductor chips, and even as a filament in lightbulbs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/31/commodities-price-of-tungsten-sulfur-and-helium.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Evelyn Cheng for CNBC interviewed Christopher Ecclestone&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, Principal and Mining Strategist at Hallgarten &#x26;amp; Company, on March 31, 2026. He said, &#x22;Tungsten and helium prices have been surging, but you don&#x27;t have anyone on the buy side saying, &#x27;Oh my goodness, we don&#x27;t have enough product. Defense contractors should have warehouses of tungsten, but they don&#x27;t. The world has gotten lazy. It thinks life is like a supermarket, the product is a pack of cornflakes or a few tons of sulfuric acid. The supermarket of commodities has had a few of the aisles chopped down.&#x27;&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;With China&#x27;s trade rules unstable, the U.S. is struggling to fuel its demand. &#x22;Tungsten supply isn&#x27;t keeping up with demand. Last February, the Chinese government slapped export controls on tungsten in response to the U.S.-instigated trade war. Chinese shipments were down about 40% last year, not only due to export restrictions, but because of diminished ore quality,&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://aheadoftheherd.com/3-metals-indispensable-for-warfighting-richard-mills/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;reported &#x3C;em&#x3E;Ahead of the Herd&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E; &#x3C;/em&#x3E;on March 26, 2026. The article states that the U.S. hasn&#x27;t produced any tungsten on its own since 2015.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_11251&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11251?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Allied Critical Metals Inc. (ACM:CSE; ACMIF:OTCQB; 0VJ0:FSE)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;, a Canadian mining company, is attempting to provide answers for the tungsten shortage in the West with its Borralha Tungsten Project in the north of Portugal. On March 10, 2026, Allied Critical Metals released additional results from its Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) of Borralha.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/287936&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Roy Bonnell, CEO and Director of Allied, said,&#x3C;/a&#x3E; &#x22;Following the release of our initial PEA for the Borralha Project, we received strong investor interest in additional project-level detail. This supplementary disclosure highlights the Project&#x27;s capital efficiency, strong annual cash generation, and well-developed infrastructure platform. Importantly, the underlying economics of the PEA remain unchanged, while the additional payback presentation provides another useful reference point for investors evaluating project returns and the strong leverage the Borralha Project has to tungsten prices.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The original PEA announcement was evaluated with &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/287936&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;three pricing frameworks&#x3C;/a&#x3E;: &#x22;The Base case of CA$962/mtu WO&#x26;#8323; (US$704/mtu WO&#x26;#8323;), CA$1,365/mtu WO&#x26;#8323; (US$1,000/mtu WO&#x26;#8323;), and CA$2,049/mtu WO&#x26;#8323; (US$1,500/mtu WO&#x26;#8323;), while mine design and cut-off grade selection were developed using a conservative tungsten price assumption of CA$900/mtu WO&#x26;#8323; (US$659/mtu WO&#x26;#8323;).&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company also released an updated Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE) based on the testing of 41 drill holes and 400 meters of surface testing at the San Helena Breccia at Borralha. Based on the PEA and MRE, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.newsfilecorp.com/release/287936&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Allied Critical Metals expects&#x3C;/a&#x3E; the life-of-mine capital to be around US$178 million, with initial capital hitting US$91.5 million and sustaining capital of US$87 million.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;Allied to Produce for the US and the EU&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Thibaut Lepouttre of &#x3C;em&#x3E;Caesar&#x27;s Report&#x3C;/em&#x3E; gave &#x3C;em&#x3E;Streetwise Reports&#x3C;/em&#x3E; a quote, saying, &#x22;While the project has been around for a while, but never gained momentum when the tungsten price was US$300-375 per mtu, the current renewed interest and sky-high tungsten price make Borralha&#x27;s economics very attractive. The company used CA$1000/mtu in its base case scenario (which is 1/3rd of the current spot price), and this yielded an after-tax NPV8% of CA$475M, increasing to almost CA$1B at $1500/mtu. And thanks to the low initial capex, Borralha is establishing itself as one of Europe&#x27;s best options to increase domestic tungsten production within the EU.&#x22; [OWNERSHIP_CHART-11251]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Once that is complete, Allied Critical Metals plans to construct Vila Verde&#x27;s pilot plant in Q2, then launch a 1,250-meter drill program in Q3. If all goes according to plan, the company intends for the pilot plant to begin operations in Q4 2026.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Robert Sinn of Goldfinger Capital introduces a new favorite of his: Algo Grande Copper Corp. (ALGR:TSX.V).&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 19, 2026, &#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_11488&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11488?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Algo Grande Copper Corp.

&#x3C;p&#x3E;The integrated exploration campaign includes:&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;High-resolution LiDAR survey (license wide)&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;/ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I connected with Algo Grande CEO Enrico Gay and VP of Exploration Jo&#x26;atilde;o Rocha for an introduction to Algo Grande and what investors can expect from ALGR in 2026.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;I used the recent market correction to initiate a position in ALGR shares. I look forward to the aggressive news cycle the company has planned for the next several months.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Porphyry Upside at Depth:&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; Geological indicators suggest a potential copper porphyry source beneath Cerro Grande, offering a second layer of large-scale upside&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Defined Expansion Targets:&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; Magnetite-rich skarn horizons identified through detailed drone magnetic surveys, providing clear step-out drill targets for the Phase II program&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Lake Victoria Gold Ltd. (LVG:TSX; LVGLF:OTCQB; E1K:FSE) secured a US$25M gold loan facility with Monetary Metals and a CA$3M convertible debenture, with key catalysts including Imwelo construction and a potential toll milling deal at Tembo expected to drive near-term production, noted Atrium Research.&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Atrium Research analysts Ben Pirie and Nicholas Cortellucci, CFA, published a research flash on April 1, 2026, maintaining their BUY rating and CA$0.50 target price on &#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_11073&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11073?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Lake Victoria Gold Ltd. (LVG:TSX; LVGLF:OTCQB; E1K:FSE)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E;, representing a 61% return to target from the current share price of CA$0.31.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The updated coverage follows the company&#x27;s announcement of two new financing facilities that the analysts describe as &#x22;one of the last key steps for LVG to move Imwelo towards full construction and a defined path to production.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Financing Announcements&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Lake Victoria Gold has secured a gold loan facility of up to approximately US$25 million with Monetary Metals &#x26;amp; Co., a U.S.-based precious metals financing platform, equivalent to 6,000 ounces of gold. The facility carries a 15% annual interest rate, a multi-year term with structured amortization, and includes 2.5 million warrants with a three-year term priced off the 30-day VWAP. Proceeds are designated to fund Imwelo development, including engineering and site advancement. Atrium notes the loan is priced at a discount to spot but is notably higher than terms that would have been available a year prior, describing this as &#x22;a large benefit to the timeline delay.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Simultaneously, the company has secured a fully committed CA$3.0 million non-brokered convertible debenture, carrying a 5.0% coupon and a 36-month term, convertible at CA$0.31 per share. The debentures include warrants equal to 50% of conversion shares, exercisable at CA$0.40 per share over three years. Proceeds will be used to advance development at both the Imwelo and Tembo projects.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Tembo Project Update&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;On March 25, 2026, Lake Victoria Gold announced two parallel workstreams advancing the Tembo Project toward near-term production. Tanzania&#x27;s Mining Commission has formally initiated the process to incorporate the government&#x27;s statutory 16% non-dilutable free carried interest in the Tembo mining licenses, which Atrium characterizes as effectively de-risking the project &#x22;from a permitting and ownership standpoint.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Concurrently, LVG is in advanced negotiations toward a binding toll milling agreement with Nyati Resources, which would leverage existing regional processing infrastructure to minimize upfront capital requirements and accelerate timelines.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Atrium views the combination of these two financing structures favorably, noting they &#x22;limit dilution to shareholders while the Company advances both projects.&#x22; The firm highlights that the potential for near-term gold production from two separate assets &#x26;mdash; Imwelo and Tembo &#x26;mdash; does not appear to be reflected in the current share price.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Key upcoming catalysts include ongoing Barrick progress and drilling results at Tembo, and Imwelo construction commencement targeted for Q2&#x26;ndash;Q3 2026, with first gold production estimated for 2027.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;On the valuation front, Atrium carries a net asset value estimate of US$158.2 million for Lake Victoria Gold, implying the stock currently trades at 0.32x NAV. The company&#x27;s enterprise value stands at approximately CA$67.8 million, with CA$3.9 million in pro-forma cash and CA$1.2 million in debt. Gold production is not expected until 2027, at which point the firm projects 8,700 ounces, generating net revenue of CA$38.7 million, cash flow of CA$8.9 million, cash costs of US$1,407 per ounce, and an all-in sustaining cost of US$2,031 per ounce. The stock currently trades at 7.9x estimated 2027 cash flow per share.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Lake Victoria Gold Ltd. (LVG:TSX; LVGLF:OTCQB; E1K:FSE) takes out a gold loan facility worth up to US$25 million. The funding is crucial, one analyst says.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_11073&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11073?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Lake Victoria Gold Ltd. (LVG:TSX; LVGLF:OTCQB; E1K:FSE)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E; announced that it has finalized the terms for a gold loan facility of up to 6,000 ounces of gold (approximately US$25 million) with Monetary Metals &#x26;amp; Co., &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://lakevictoriagold.com/lake-victoria-gold-secures-up-to-a-us25-million-gold-loan-from-monetary-metals-plus-fully-committed-3-0-million-convertible-debenture-financing/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;according to an April 1 release&#x3C;/a&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This agreement is complemented by a fully committed CA$3 million non-brokered convertible debenture financing, the release noted.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Lake Victoria Gold said the gold loan facility is a crucial advancement in securing non-dilutive, project-level financing for the development of the company&#x26;rsquo;s Imwelo Gold Project in Tanzania. Concurrently, the convertible debenture financing will provide immediate funds to expedite ongoing work programs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This announcement follows a previous declaration on December 3, 2024, about a gold financing initiative with Monetary Metals, and the current binding term sheet marks a significant progression towards finalizing a definitive financing solution for the Imwelo project. While the term sheet solidifies certain essential commercial terms, it is still subject to the completion of due diligence, definitive documentation, and standard regulatory approvals.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;This financing allows us to immediately accelerate work programs on the ground at Imwelo and advance key initiatives across both Imwelo and Tembo without delay,&#x22; Chief Executive Officer and Director Marc Cernovitch said. &#x22;With capital now in place, our focus is on execution &#x26;mdash; progressing engineering, advancing site activities, and moving Imwelo toward development. At the same time, the Monetary Metals facility provides a clear pathway to larger-scale project financing, supporting our objective of bringing Imwelo into production.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Executive Chairman and Chief Financial Officer Simon Benstead added, &#x22;This financing structure is designed to bridge near-term capital requirements with longer-term project funding. The combination of a gold-denominated facility with repayment in gold ounces and a fully committed convertible debenture provides funding certainty while minimizing dilution. We are focused on building a disciplined capital structure to support development and advance Imwelo toward construction.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Details of the Agreements&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Lake Victoria Gold Ltd. has structured a significant financial arrangement with Monetary Metals, setting up a gold loan facility for up to 6,000 ounces of gold, approximately valued at US$25 million, the release said. This facility is uniquely denominated in gold ounces, aligning closely with the future gold production from the Imwelo Gold Project. It features a 15% annual interest rate and is structured over multiple years with a planned amortization profile, designed as a non-dilutive financing solution for the project. The proceeds are earmarked for the development of the Imwelo Gold Project.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Additionally, the agreement includes an equity participation component, offering 2,500,000 warrants exercisable over three years at a price determined by the 30-day VWAP of the Company&#x26;rsquo;s shares at closing, subject to regulatory approvals by the TSX Venture Exchange. The company aims to close this agreement within the next 60-90 days, pending due diligence, definitive agreements, and regulatory approvals.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;With the Imwelo gold project, we are deploying gold as productive capital,&#x22; Money Metals CEO Keith Weiner said. &#x22;We believe that structuring financing in gold ounces aligns the interests of both parties and supports efficient project development. We are pleased to be working with Lake Victoria Gold to advance the project through to production.&#x26;rdquo;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In addition to the gold loan, the CA$3 million secured through a non-brokered private placement of unsecured convertible debentures will bear interest at 5% per annum, payable semi-annually, and are set for a 36-month term.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The proceeds from this placement will accelerate development at the Imwelo Gold Project and advance the Tembo Project, among other corporate purposes, the company said. Insiders may participate in this placement, deemed a related party transaction exempt from certain formal valuation and minority shareholder approval requirements. This placement is subject to a statutory hold period of four months and one day, and approval from the TSX Venture Exchange.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Monetary Metals, known for its innovative Gold Yield Marketplace&#x26;trade;, offers gold-denominated financing, providing a yield on gold, paid in gold, to stakeholders in the precious metals sector. This approach allows investors to compound their gold holdings over time without incurring storage fees.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Analyst Says Steps Are Crucial for Co.&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;These financial arrangements are set to expedite critical developments at the Imwelo project and further initiatives at both the Imwelo and Tembo projects, according to an updated research note by Atrium Research Analyst Ben Pirie on April 1. These steps are crucial as LVG moves towards full construction and a clear trajectory to production at Imwelo, the analyst said.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;Additionally, on March 25, LVG announced it is advancing negotiations towards a binding agreement with Nyati Resources to support toll milling ore from the Tembo property at Nyati&#x26;rsquo;s neighboring mill,&#x22; Pirie wrote. &#x22;We are maintaining our BUY rating and target price of CA$0.50/share on Lake Victoria Gold.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The announcements, coupled with the strategic developments on March 25, underscore LVG&#x26;rsquo;s robust portfolio and its commitment to achieving near-term production, the analyst said. The financing methods chosen are designed to minimize shareholder dilution as the projects advance. The potential collaboration with Nyati offers a lower-risk production pathway with significant upside, which is currently undervalued by the market. The market has yet to fully recognize LVG&#x26;rsquo;s potential to commence gold production from two assets in the near future, leveraging high gold prices.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Looking ahead, LVG is focused on transforming its current momentum into concrete progress. This includes finalizing the agreement with Nyati, completing the government participation framework, and advancing technical work to support mine planning and operational readiness. These steps are pivotal in de-risking the Tembo project within the Tanzanian regulatory context and shifting towards execution by leveraging existing infrastructure to reduce initial capital outlays and expedite project timelines.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 19, 2026, Alina Islam, a Mining Analyst at Red Cloud Securities, &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/03/19/gold-co-advancing-toward-pfs-and-near-term-production.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;provided a detailed update on Lake Victoria Gold&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, focusing particularly on the recent metallurgical test results from the company&#x27;s operations. Although Lake Victoria Gold does not currently have a formal rating or target price set by Red Cloud, Islam highlighted that these latest results represent a significant de-risking milestone for the project. Notably, this batch of tests included, for the first time, both transitional and fresh sulfide rock from deeper sections of the planned mining pit, complementing earlier tests that primarily focused on oxide materials.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Islam pointed out that the consistency of these new results with historical data from 2013, 2014, and 2017 boosts confidence in the predictability of recovery rates throughout the mining sequence and strongly supports the final plant design. The tests affirmed the effectiveness of the gravity plus carbon-in-leach (CIL) processing flowsheet, a method well-established in the Lake Victoria Goldfield and consistent with metallurgical profiles observed in other operational mines within the district. Additionally, Bond Work Index testing indicated a value of approximately 22.9 kWh/t, reflecting the relatively hard rock characteristic of the region&#x27;s Archean greenstone deposits, yet manageable within conventional milling circuits.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Imwelo project, located just 12 kilometers west of AngloGold Ashanti Ltd.&#x27;s Geita mine, is a fully permitted, near-term development initiative operating under a 10-year mining license with comprehensive permissions for construction and production. A historical Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) from 2021 projected a 10-year open-pit operation beginning with an initial production of 12,000 ounces of gold, scaling up to 24,000 ounces, at an estimated all-in sustaining cost of US$1,500 per ounce. Lake Victoria Gold is currently integrating these metallurgical insights into final mine planning, process plant optimization, and engineering studies for a PFS anticipated around 2027, as Islam noted. The company is also advancing funding strategies to cover the estimated US$15 million capital cost.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Looking ahead, Islam highlighted several potential catalysts that could positively impact the stock price, including an updated mineral resource estimate expected in 2026, a targeted pre-feasibility study around 2027, and ongoing exploration results from the company&#x27;s Tembo project.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;The Catalyst: Gold Starts Bouncing Back&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://finance.yahoo.com/news/gold-prices-rally-but-tracks-worst-month-in-more-than-a-decade-202916132.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Ines Ferr&#x26;eacute; reported for Yahoo! Finance on March 31&#x3C;/a&#x3E; that gold prices experienced a notable increase due to optimistic expectations for a quick resolution to the Middle East conflict. Despite this uptick, gold recorded its most challenging month in over a decade.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Gold futures surged by 3% as President Trump indicated that the conflict &#x22;won&#x27;t last much longer,&#x22; propelling bullion prices to exceed US$4,670 per troy ounce amid a general market rally. However, even with Tuesday&#x27;s surge, gold futures concluded the month with their most significant drop since 2013. Similarly, spot gold prices rose during the session but were on track to mark their worst monthly performance since 2008.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite the steep monthly decline, which momentarily cast doubt on gold&#x27;s status as a safe haven, Wall Street views this downturn as temporary. Otavio Costa, founder and CEO of Azuria Capital, expressed optimism about the market&#x27;s direction, stating, &#x22;Bottoms are always a process, and I do believe we are in the middle of one,&#x22; in a post on Tuesday.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.kitco.com/news/article/2026-03-31/bloombergs-mcglone-says-gold-and-silver-may-have-hit-their-generational&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;According to Neils Christensen writing for Kitco News on March 31&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, the gold market is showing signs of stabilization with prices maintaining above US$4,500 an ounce, yet Mike McGlone, senior market analyst at Bloomberg Intelligence, cautions that the peak prices seen in January might be the highest for this generation.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In his April metals outlook, McGlone highlighted the challenges gold faces following its sharp rise earlier in the year. He noted, &#x22;At the end of February, the metal stretched to its highest-ever level versus the Bloomberg Commodity Spot Index and its greatest premium to its 60-month moving average since 1980.&#x22; [OWNERSHIP_CHART-11073]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;He further explained that the significant rally in 2025, which was the most robust since 1979, seemed to anticipate the Iran war, drawing a parallel to the 1980 peak when gold reached about $850 an ounce, a high that persisted until 2008.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;McGlone observed that gold is currently struggling as its speculative momentum has shifted its perception from a safe-haven asset to a risk asset, according to Christensen. He pointed out that gold&#x26;rsquo;s 180-day volatility is now more than double that of the S&#x26;amp;P 500 and is at its highest quarterly level since 2006. This volatility comes as gold is poised to record its worst monthly loss since the 1980s, with spot gold last trading at US$4,612.70 an ounce, down 12.5% for the month.

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Golden Sky Minerals Corp. (AUEN:TSX.V;  LCKYF:OTC) reveals five high-grade copper-gold zones in BC, signaling upside potential and exploration growth.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_9619&#x22;&#x3E;Golden Sky Minerals Corp. (AUEN:TSX.V; LCKYF:OTC)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; has filed an NI 43-101 for the Rayfield Copper-Gold Project, which is co-funded by &#x3C;strong&#x3E;Boliden AB (BLIDF: OTCPK; BOLD:ST) &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;. The news broke on March 30, 2026, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!AUEN-3800304/C/AUEN&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;in a release by John Newell&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, President, CEO, and Director of Golden Sky.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company has compiled its 2025 ZTEM, aeromagnetic surveys, and historical exploration data to identify multiple porphyry copper-gold and epithermal targets on the project property. Five distinct copper-gold zones are listed in the technical report, and the project as a whole is comprised of a large land parcel in the Quesnel terrane. Multiple target zones have been identified within this property via geological, geochemical, and geophysical findings, including the Rayfield zone, the Gnome target, the Semlin target, the Mowich target, and the early-stage X zone.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Golden Sky secured CA$20 million through its partnership with Boliden on the Rayfield-Gjoll project.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!AUEN-3800304/C/AUEN&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Newell said in the release&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, &#x22;Filing this technical report is an important milestone for Golden Sky and reflects our commitment to advancing the Rayfield-Gjoll project in partnership with Boliden. It provides a transparent technical framework for the Rayfield-Gjoll project that investors and our partner can reference as we advance exploration in 2026. Rayfield is not a single-target story; with five well-defined copper-gold zones, modern geophysical targets that remain open at depth, and a disciplined staged work plan, we are well positioned to systematically advance the highest-priority targets alongside Boliden in 2026. This report provides the technical road map for what we expect to be an active and productive exploration season, including partner-funded drilling under our agreement with Boliden.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Whale investors and industry veterans are committed to weathering the market&#x27;s ups and downs for gold. &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://vongreyerz.gold/haycock-piepenburg-golds-pullback-may-be-the-best-entry-point-in-years?utm_campaign=163139794-2025%20-%20Newsletters&#x26;amp;utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;_hsenc=p2ANqtz-99zdr6kjFvac9VhD7n3-GiaJ0w8b8170LG-fSo200OjdBqC90tKMoffV3aZFmbKJU2AlcYVyhv0o08XLpb3IiPpOSPaO5lSq44puHU9kfQIIaiaRI&#x26;amp;_hsmi=132300172&#x26;amp;utm_content=132300172&#x26;amp;utm_source=hs_email&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Matthew Piepenburg of Von Greyerz Gold wrote&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 31, &#x22;Amid escalating tensions in the Middle East, rising inflation, and mounting systemic fragility, gold&#x27;s recent weakness has raised eyebrows.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Yet, as discussed, this is neither unprecedented nor irrational. In fact, history shows that during periods of tightening liquidity, rising yields, and forced deleveraging, even the strongest and most liquid assets, like physical gold, can be temporarily sold.&#x22; He went on to say, &#x22;In short, what may appear to be a weakness today could, in reality, represent a rare and strategic entry point for those who understand physical gold&#x27;s role as a long-term store of value.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Also on March 31, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;http://www.321gold.com/editorials/thomson_s/thomson_s_033126.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Stewart Thompson wrote an editorial piece on the market for 321gold.com&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. He wrote, &#x22;The bottom line is that a technical trifecta is in play. The Dow, gold, and GDX are all hitting support with oscillators showcasing buy signals . . . at the same time.&#x22; Thompson then shared his advice: &#x22;Momentum players can be eager buyers today. I&#x27;m a US stock market buyer (in tiny size), a gold buyer, a silver buyer, and a mine stock buyer, in &#x27;meatier&#x27; size. I invite gold bugs of the world to say good-bye to some of their fiat, and engage in some wonderful buy-side fun!&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;On April 1, 2026, technical analyst Stewart Thompson gave the following quote to &#x3C;em&#x3E;Streetwise Reports&#x3C;/em&#x3E;: &#x22;For Golden Sky, price targets are CA$0.50 and CA$0.70. A burst in volume should confirm the end of the consolidation and a new bull phase with a breakout from the wedge-like drift.&#x22; [OWNERSHIP_CHART-9619]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;He continued, &#x22;The junior stocks are rallying in general. Investors interested in the company could buy small positions.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Couloir Capital reiterated its rating and price target on Golden Cariboo Resources Ltd. (GCC:CSE; GCCFF:OTC; A402CQ:WKN; 3TZ:FSE) after the junior explorer reports its best-ever near-surface gold intercept at the Halo Zone and commissions a maiden NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate.&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Published March 27, 2026, Couloir Capital&#x27;s research team, including analyst Ron Wortel, MBA, P.Eng., reiterated a BUY rating on &#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_11131&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11131?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Golden Cariboo Resources Ltd. (GCC:CSE; GCCFF:OTC; A402CQ:WKN; 3TZ:FSE)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;,&#x3C;/span&#x3E; with an unchanged CA$0.50 fair value per share estimate, representing a 455% premium to the current CA$0.09 share price. The rating is supported by continued high-grade drilling success at the Halo Zone and the formal commissioning of a maiden NI 43-101 Mineral Resource Estimate (MRE).&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Golden Cariboo Resources recently reported its strongest near-surface drill intercept to date from hole QGQ25-27, which returned 0.89 g/t gold over 70.65 meters from just 14.20 meters depth. Higher-grade subintervals included 3.25 g/t gold over 8.2 meters and 3.86 g/t gold over 5.2 meters. This followed hole QGQ25-25, a 96-meter north-northeast step-out from a previous discovery hole, which intersected 0.42 g/t gold over 47.01 meters from surface and 0.76 g/t gold over 20.45 meters at depth &#x26;mdash; confirming lateral continuity across a broader footprint. The company&#x27;s deepest-ever hole, QGQ25-28, reached approximately 755 meters and intersected quartz-carbonate veining, silicification, and disseminated pyrite mineralization to the end of the hole near the property boundary, potentially adding a further 300 meters to the known system extent.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;On March 1, 2026, Golden Cariboo formally announced the commissioning of an independent NI 43-101-compliant MRE covering the Halo and Main zones. The estimate will incorporate data from 28 company drill holes and up to nine historically reported holes. Couloir describes the timing as &#x22;unusually early&#x22; for a junior at this stage, viewing it as a signal of management and the technical team&#x27;s confidence in the geological database. Results from QGQ25-28 and future holes could feed into subsequent resource updates, providing incremental re-rating catalysts.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;On March 17, 2026, Golden Cariboo acquired 13 placer claim cells totaling 250 hectares at the Halo Zone for CA$60,000 cash, securing 100% of the placer rights over the target area. Couloir views this as a strategically logical consolidation that eliminates a potential complication in future project development while adding optionality to any alluvial gold above the known bedrock mineralization.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The Halo and Main zones lie along one of five identified mineralized trends on the company&#x27;s approximately 95,000-hectare district-scale land package. Couloir draws a favorable comparison to the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;Spanish Mountain Gold Ltd. (TSXV: SPA)&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; deposit &#x26;mdash; located to the south along the same structural corridor &#x26;mdash; which holds close to 6.5 million ounces of gold at approximately 0.43 g/t and recently published a positive preliminary economic assessment.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;As of Q1 FY2026 (quarter ended December 31, 2025), Golden Cariboo held CA$962,094 in cash and CA$1.39 million in working capital, with a current ratio of 3.85x and no debt. Monthly cash burn improved to approximately CA$257,000 from CA$543,000 in the prior-year quarter, reflecting reduced exploration activity during the period.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Couloir&#x27;s valuation employs a market-implied in-ground methodology, applying a conservative US$45/oz in-ground value (a 1% discount to spot gold of approximately US$4,500/oz). Using a conceptual block based on recent intercepts, the firm estimates the market is currently pricing in approximately 159,000 ounces &#x26;mdash; a modest figure relative to the scale of the system being outlined. A more expansive resource target model incorporating a 500-meter strike length, 350-meter width, and 200-meter depth implies between approximately 1.1 million and 2.9 million potential ounces at grades ranging from 0.35 to 0.95 g/t gold, pointing to a range of fair values from CA$0.31 to CA$1.22 per share depending on grade and gold price assumptions. On a peer comparison basis, Golden Cariboo trades at a market capitalization of approximately CA$10.9 million, a significant discount to the average of approximately CA$48 million among comparable early-stage British Columbia gold explorers, excluding outliers.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Key catalysts identified by Couloir include positive results from the ongoing drill program, target generation across the broader land package, additional drilling confirming mineral continuity at Halo, and any financing activity that materially alters the capital structure.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Couloir identifies several material risks, including the possibility that drilling fails to confirm continuity of mineralization or does not support an economically viable large-scale system. The company will likely require additional equity financing given the ongoing cash burn, which could prove dilutive to existing shareholders. As an early-stage explorer without a compliant resource or economic assessment, Golden Cariboo remains at the higher end of the investment risk spectrum. Seasonal limitations &#x26;mdash; with only six to seven months of cost-effective exploration per year in British Columbia&#x27;s central interior &#x26;mdash; and standard jurisdictional and permitting risks round out the key considerations.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Rackla Metals Inc. (RAK:TSX.V) revealed high-grade tungsten potential in Yukon with historic data, existing infrastructure, and major upside amid soaring global demand.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_5123&#x22;&#x3E;Rackla Metals Inc. (RAK:TSX.V)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; acquired the Lentung Tungsten Property in late 2025 and &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!RAK-3800174/C/RAK&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;released an update&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on data compilation for the area on March 30, 2026.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Rackla owns 19,600 hectares in the area and has digitized and compiled historical data surrounding drilling, assays, and technical studies of the site. The company plans to use this data to create 3-D geographical modeling and efficiently target upcoming drilling programs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The property was previously owned by Union Carbide , so infrastructure is already in place, allowing for scale and upside. The infrastructure includes &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!RAK-3800174/C/RAK&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x22;. . . 26,000 meters of drilling across 178 holes, identifying 15 tungsten occurrences over a 15-kilometer strike length.&#x22;&#x3C;/a&#x3E; The deposits in this area, including the Cantung and Mactung deposits, rank among the highest-grade tungsten skarn systems in the world.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Data gathered from analyzing Union Carbide&#x27;s files confirms a robust deposit with high-grade open-pit potential.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!RAK-3800174/C/RAK&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;According to a Stockwatch.com article&#x3C;/a&#x3E; from March 30, 2026, &#x22;The historical resource estimate by Union Carbide was calculated for three of the 15 tungsten occurrences on the Lened property and ranks as one of the highest-grade tungsten skarn deposits in the world according to the United States Geological Survey ranking of tungsten skarn deposits.&#x22; The remaining 12 occurrences have barely been explored, and Rackla is planning an exploration to see if they could produce additional resources.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Rackla Metals Inc. is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on mining rare earth, gold, and tungsten in the eastern Yukon and western Northwest Territories in Canada.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Commodity prices have varied amid the U.S.-Iran War and trade tensions between the U.S. and China. Due to tungsten&#x27;s incredible strength and heat tolerance, the metal is a highly valuable component of weaponry, including missiles and armor-piercing bullets. A shortage of tungsten has appeared in the Western world, though, as China is the world&#x27;s largest tungsten producer, and it has stopped shipping to the U.S. &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/31/commodities-price-of-tungsten-sulfur-and-helium.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;As Almonty&#x27;s CEO told CNBC&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 31, 2026, &#x22;There&#x27;s no material to stockpile. That&#x27;s probably the biggest change.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 23, &#x3C;em&#x3E;Ahead of the Herd&#x3C;/em&#x3E; wrote that, &#x22;Outside of China, which accounts for 83% of global supply, there are only a few tungsten mines, making exploration imperative. . . The end result of skyrocketing demand for tungsten, due to militaries rearming and the war in Iran, combined with limited supply, is that the metal has jumped 557% in a little over a year.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Tungsten was already doing well, but the prices have skyrocketed, with &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/31/commodities-price-of-tungsten-sulfur-and-helium.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;the metal hitting a record high of over US$3,000 mid-March&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. &#x22;From ~US$300 per metric tonne unit (a measured equal to 10kg) in early 2025, the price ran to around US$920/mtu in early 2026. &#x3C;span style=&#x22;box-sizing: border-box; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;&#x22;&#x3E;By March 20, it hit US$2650/mtu, a full US$400/mtu higher than March 13,&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://stockhead.com.au/resources/tungsten-has-gone-exponential-heres-how-australian-explorers-are-taking-advantage/?utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;utm_campaign=Stockhead%20Morning%20Newsletter-03-24-2026&#x26;amp;utm_content=httpsstockheadcomauresourcestungstenhasgoneexponentialhereshowaustralianexplorersaretakingadvantage&#x26;amp;utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;utm_campaign=AM%20NL%20Mar%2025&#x26;amp;utm_content=AM%20NL%20Mar%2025+CID_daaef33d3b6d7adf5a9eb6d8eb0abf1c&#x26;amp;utm_source=Campaign%20Monitor&#x26;amp;utm_term=Tungsten%20has%20gone%20exponential%20%20heres%20how%20Australian%20explorers%20are%20taking%20advantage&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;wrote Josh Chiat of Stockhead.com&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 25.&#x3C;/span&#x3E; Chiat noted the high demand for alongside the difficulty of producing it, saying, &#x22;Have a tungsten mine right now, and the investment will come.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 31, 2026, Bob Moriarty of 321gold.com gave &#x3C;em&#x3E;Streetwise Reports &#x3C;/em&#x3E;a quote on the company: &#x22;While Rackla&#x27;s 2025 couldn&#x27;t determine the source of the widespread gold their surface exploration program discovered, they did raise CA$10 million while investors were hurling money at good juniors. Rackla has come up with a Plan B backup with a nearby tungsten property with known values. So, one way or another, I expect the 2026 program to be successful.&#x22; [OWNERSHIP_CHART-5123]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;The drill core from campaigns in the 70s and 80s remained on the property, leading Rackla to plan a recovery and resampling this summer.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

Analysts cited in the report said, &#x22;While the Chinese supply chain is being viewed as more resilient than many peers, the risk of disruption in chemicals as raw materials for manufacturers in selected segments is higher than expected based on the feedback.&#x22; The report also noted that China had expanded restrictions on exports of certain materials, including tungsten and sulfur-related products, while helium imports had risen in recent years.&#x22; &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Adamera Minerals Corp. (ADZ:TSX.V) stakes 1,360-acre Washington claim targeting tungsten amid a 557% price surge, positioning for major gains in a tight U.S. supply market.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/6736?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;On March 31, 2026,&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/6736?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E; Adamera Minerals Corp. (ADZ:TSX.V)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; announced &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!ADZ-3800437/C/ADZ&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;it had staked claims&#x3C;/a&#x3E; of over 1,360 acres in the Tungsten Ridge property in Washington state. The new claims contain silver, copper, tungsten, and molybdenum mineralization. This move comes as Adamera continues to build a comprehensive critical mineral portfolio within the U.S.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company owns the Talisman tungsten property, a proven past producer, and the newly-staked Tungsten Ridge property, which was test mined for tungsten in 1951, 1953, and 1954..&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!ADZ-3800437/C/ADZ&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Mark Kolebaba, CEO of Adamera, said in the release,&#x3C;/a&#x3E; &#x22;In 2025, the Company considered selling the Talisman Tungsten property, but the macroeconomic landscape for tungsten has fundamentally shifted. Driven by an unprecedented surge in demand and pricing, we have instead expanded our tungsten holdings. This is exactly the type of project Adamera is well-equipped to rapidly advance. It is close to infrastructure and our operational base in Washington State. Going forward, our focus will be to rapidly advance both properties with field work expected to commence in April.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company plans to release near-term plans for these new tungsten properties soon.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Adamera Minerals Corp. is a Canadian company with a traditional focus on high-grade gold, silver, and copper exploration in B.C. and Washington, U.S. The company is now positioning itself to provide an uninterrupted domestic supply of tungsten to the U.S. market.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Its strength allows it to be used for drilling, cutting, and armor-piercing weaponry, while its heat resistance allows it to be used in almost any explosive situation &#x26;mdash; and &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.britannica.com/science/tungsten-chemical-element&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;in lightbulbs&#x3C;/a&#x3E; as filament.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Trade tensions between the U.S. and China, as well as the rise of the U.S.-Iran War, have affected commodities prices over the past few weeks. Tungsten is necessary for waging war effectively, as it is a major component in weaponry. China is the world&#x27;s largest tungsten producer, and it has stopped shipping to the U.S. &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/31/commodities-price-of-tungsten-sulfur-and-helium.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;As Almonty&#x27;s CEO told CNBC&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 31, 2026, &#x22;There&#x27;s no material to stockpile. That&#x27;s probably the biggest change.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 23, &#x3C;em&#x3E;Ahead of the Herd&#x3C;/em&#x3E;, wrote, &#x22;Outside of China, which accounts for 83% of global supply, there are only a few tungsten mines, making exploration imperative. . . The end result of skyrocketing demand for tungsten, due to militaries rearming and the war in Iran, combined with limited supply, is the metal has jumped 557% in a little over a year.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This supply cut-off has elevated tungsten&#x27;s already-rising prices, with &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.cnbc.com/2026/03/31/commodities-price-of-tungsten-sulfur-and-helium.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;the metal hitting a record high of over US$3,000 mid-March&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. &#x22;From ~US$300 per metric tonne unit (a measured equal to 10kg) in early 2025, the price ran to around US$920/mtu in early 2026.

&#x3C;p&#x3E;He went on to say, &#x22;As always, position sizing and risk management matter. But in a rising metal price environment, this is the type of setup that can often surprise to the upside.&#x22; Newell considers Adamera&#x27;s Flag Hill South project in the Republic Gold District of Washington as one of the most immediate value drivers the company owns.

&#x3C;p&#x3E;As always it is important to note that investing in precious metals like silver carries risks, and market conditions can change violently with shock and awe tactics, that we have seen over the past 20 years. Before making any investment decisions, it&#x27;s advisable consult with a financial advisor if needed. Also the practice of conducting thorough research and to consider your investment goals and risk tolerance.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Seabridge Gold Inc. (SEA:TSX; SA:NYSE.MKT) announces revised Mineral Resource Estimates for KSM, which one publication has called the world&#x27;s top gold project.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_700&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/700?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Seabridge Gold Inc. (SEA:TSX; SA:NYSE.MKT)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E; announced revised Mineral Resource Estimates for its KSM Project in northwestern British Columbia, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.seabridgegold.com/press-release/seabridge-gold-provides-updated-mineral-resource-estimates-for-ksm-project&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;according to a March 31 release&#x3C;/a&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The updates are based on new metal price assumptions of US$2,000/ounce for gold, US$4.00/pound for copper, US$25/ounce for silver, and US$22/pound for molybdenum, with a currency exchange rate of US$0.746 per CA$1. Previously, for the last decade, the resource estimates at KSM were calculated using lower metal prices and a different exchange rate.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The updated estimates show significant increases in resources: Measured and Indicated Mineral Resources have risen by 6.8 million ounces (Moz) of gold, 1.5 billion pounds of copper, 42.7 Moz of silver, and 93 million pounds of molybdenum since the last update in January 2024. Inferred Mineral Resources have also seen substantial growth, with increases of 12.9 Moz of gold, 4.2 billion pounds of copper, 108.8 Moz of silver, and 140 million pounds of molybdenum. &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.seabridgegold.com/press-release/seabridge-gold-provides-updated-mineral-resource-estimates-for-ksm-project&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Seabridge&#x27;s release &#x3C;/a&#x3E;has a more detailed breakdown of the numbers.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Seabridge Chair and Chief Executive Officer Rudi Fronk highlighted that these resource restatements are the result of applying updated metal price parameters and operating costs. &#x22;As we move towards a joint venture on KSM, our resource estimates&#x27; price assumptions are now consistent with most Tier 1 mining company disclosures,&#x22; he said.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Seabridge noted in the release that it was important to note that the mineral resource model itself has not changed; the updates are solely due to the revised assumptions on metal prices and costs that influence the constraints on mineral resources and the calculation of cut-off grades. The updated mineral resource tabulation continues to utilize the same grade models from the KSM Preliminary Feasibility Study and Preliminary Economic Assessment, NI 43-101 Technical Report dated August 8, 2022.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The adjustments to the Mineral Resources are not considered material to the KSM Project or to Seabridge, as they do not materially alter the existing mineral reserves, the company said.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;The World&#x27;s Top Gold Project&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.mining.com/ranked-worlds-top-20-gold-projects/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;According to a report by Mining.com on November 18, 2025&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, Seabridge Gold&#x27;s Kerr-Sulphurets-Mitchell (KSM) project, located in British Columbia, was already the world&#x27;s top gold project. The project has received federal approval for a decade and has been progressing through prefeasibility and early construction phases since 2022, with over CA$550 million invested in construction activities, the website said.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/03/24/co-withdraws-appeal-involving-gold-developers-major-bc-project.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22;&#x3E;Earlier in March, Seabridge announced&#x3C;/a&#x3E; that Tudor Gold Corp. officially ended its legal challenge against a decision made by the Chief Gold Commissioner (CGC) of British Columbia involving KSM. This development follows the CGC&#x27;s decision on May 28, 2025, which declined Tudor Gold&#x27;s request for a ruling that would exempt them from or cancel the Conditional Mineral Reserve (CMR) related to Seabridge&#x26;rsquo;s KSM Mitchell Treaty Tunnels (MTT). Tudor Gold&#x27;s withdrawal from the appeal process signifies acceptance of the CGC&#x26;rsquo;s initial ruling concerning her jurisdiction over this issue.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The CMR in question requires that the holders of the mineral claims, which encompass the route of the MTT, must not disrupt or endanger the construction, operation, or maintenance of the MTT. This requirement has been consistently enforced by the BC Ministry of Mines for over a decade. The MTT, a crucial component of the KSM Project, consists of two parallel tunnels that connect the eastern and western parts of the mine site, with Tudor owning approximately 12.5 kilometers of the mineral claims that the MTT crosses.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Fronk criticized the initial challenge as unfounded. &#x22;We applaud Tudor&#x27;s decision to abandon its appeal, which lacked any merit from the outset,&#x22; he said. &#x22;This action reinforces our position that the authorizations issued in favor of the MTT do not give Seabridge any interest in Tudor&#x26;rsquo;s mineral rights.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Potential Partnership Among Possible Catalysts&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 12, 2026, RBC Capital Markets analyst Josh Wolfson released an update on Seabridge, maintaining an Outperform rating with a Speculative Risk qualifier and raising the price target from US$63 to US$71. This increase reflects improved project economics and Seabridge&#x27;s robust positioning to advance its flagship KSM project in British Columbia. The new price target is based on a 0.40x target multiple on the firm&#x27;s NAV&#x26;#8325;% estimate, considering the early-stage nature of the KSM project, potential partnership opportunities, unmodeled resources and projects, and the complexities and costs of construction. At the time of the report, SA shares were trading at US$33.89 on the NYSE, indicating a potential return of about 104%.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The KSM project boasts enhanced project economics due to an updated Preliminary Feasibility Study (PFS) and improved regional infrastructure, including a paved highway, port, and airstrip. Seabridge is actively seeking a senior partner to further study and potentially construct the project. Wolfson highlighted several near-term catalysts for Seabridge, such as a potential partnership announcement, feasibility study work, further optimization of the KSM project, and exploration results from the Iskut and 3 Aces properties.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Wolfson also outlined several key risks, including partnership risk, which is crucial as Seabridge&#x27;s valuation and recommendation &#x22;largely depend on Seabridge finding first a partner to advance and fund a feasibility study, and then to assume operatorship of the project through construction and production.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Other risks include sensitivity to gold and copper prices, uncertainty in construction capital expenditures, the project&#x27;s remoteness and weather challenges, permitting requirements, project financing dependent on a future partnership, and potential opposition from local groups.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/01/21/target-price-raised-on-gold-mining-co.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Cantor Fitzgerald recently increased its target price for Seabridge&#x3C;/a&#x3E; following an upward revision of its gold and silver price forecasts, according to Mike Kozak in a macro note dated January 12. The financial services firm anticipates that the rising prices of gold and silver will start to significantly enhance Seabridge&#x27;s margins, earnings, and cash flow beginning with the fourth quarter of 2025 results, which are expected to be reported in late February, and will further accelerate in the first quarter of 2026. Cantor has set a new target price for Seabridge at CA$66 per share, which implies a 72% return, as highlighted by Kozak. The firm maintains a Buy rating on the company.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Analyst: Project Set to Capitalize on Market Conditions&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Technical Analyst John Newell of Newell &#x26;amp; Associates, &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2025/12/23/a-multi-decade-setup-meets-one-of-the-worlds-largest-gold-projects.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;in a recent article for &#x3C;em&#x3E;Streetwise Reports&#x3C;/em&#x3E; dated December 23, 2025&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, discussed Seabridge Gold Inc.&#x27;s strategic handling of the KSM project. Over the last two decades, Seabridge has meticulously developed and obtained the necessary permits for KSM, setting it up to capitalize on favorable market conditions. The project, which is fully permitted and supported by robust Indigenous agreements, is poised to become a significant, long-term production venture on a global scale.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Newell highlighted that with rising gold and copper prices, the market is starting to recognize the substantial leverage KSM offers. He noted that Seabridge shares are currently experiencing a breakout from a base that has been forming for over a decade. &#x22;From a technical perspective, Seabridge shares are emerging from a multi-year base that spans more than a decade. Breakouts of this magnitude are typically driven by fundamental re-rating events, not short-term momentum. The combination of rising gold prices, advancing partnership discussions at KSM, and a clear plan to unlock value from Courageous Lake creates a rare convergence of factors,&#x22; explained Newell.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;He has rated Seabridge as a Speculative Buy, identifying it as an attractive option &#x22;for investors who understand the power of scale, scarcity, and optionality in a new gold cycle. With two world-class assets now on separate paths, and a long-term chart pointing higher, Seabridge offers leverage that is increasingly difficult to find in the gold sector.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;The Catalyst: Gold Hits Storm of Volatility&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Gold prices saw a modest increase on Monday, with a slight easing in rate hike expectations and some investors engaging in bargain-hunting, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.investing.com/news/commodities-news/gold-prices-rise-slightly-with-iran-war-escalation-in-focus-4586650&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;according to a March 30 report by Anuron Mitra for Investing.com&#x3C;/a&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This activity comes as gold is on track for its largest monthly decline in nearly two decades. As of 4:25 p.m. ET on Monday, spot gold was up 0.2% at US$4,503.29 per ounce, and gold futures also rose by 0.2% to US$4,532.51 per ounce, Mitra wrote. Last week, spot gold had dipped to as low as US$4,000 per ounce before recovering to near US$4,500 by Friday, despite a more than 14% drop over the past month.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Analysts at OCBC attribute gold&#x26;rsquo;s recent rebound from last week&#x26;rsquo;s lows to technical factors, particularly after the sharp price declines since the onset of the Iran conflict in late February, according to the report. They observed a slight easing in bearish momentum, with gold&#x26;rsquo;s relative strength index moving out of oversold territory.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;However, OCBC analysts cautioned that the sustainability of gold&#x26;rsquo;s recovery remains uncertain, pointing to key resistance levels at US$4,624, $4,670, and US$4,850 per ounce.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;A more durable recovery would likely require prices to reclaim and hold above these levels. Failing which, gold may continue to trade on a softer footing,&#x26;rdquo; they noted. Additionally, they mentioned that high energy prices could stoke inflation pressures, potentially pushing up Treasury yields and creating a tougher environment for gold. With diminishing expectations for rate cuts and increasing bets on rate hikes, gold&#x26;rsquo;s attractiveness could be further compromised, as the non-yielding metal typically underperforms in higher rate environments.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.kitco.com/news/article/2026-03-30/near-term-trend-still-looks-bearish-gold-prices-silver-producers-ahead-2025&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Ernest Hoffman reported for Kitco News on March 30&#x3C;/a&#x3E; that precious metals analysts at Heraeus have observed a shift in central banks&#x27; behavior from buyers to sellers of gold, which has contributed to weakening the support for gold prices. In their latest report, they highlighted that the Turkish central bank has notably decreased its gold reserves by approximately 53 tonnes, bringing it down to 772 tonnes. This reduction includes 22 tonnes sold directly and 31 tonnes used in gold-backed currency swaps. While this instance is specific to one bank, it illustrates a broader trend where central banks utilize their gold reserves during periods of financial and economic stress, with gold serving as a liquid asset free from counterparty risks.[OWNERSHIP_CHART-700]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The analysts also pointed out that central banks had added 863 tonnes of gold to their reserves last year. However, they cautioned that market turmoil could lead central banks to curtail their purchases or even sell off gold, significantly impacting overall demand.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Additionally, Heraeus noted that recent announcements by President Trump regarding Iran have continued to induce volatility in the metals market.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Ownership and Share Structure&#x3C;sup&#x3E;1&#x3C;/sup&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Management and insiders hold approximately 3% of the company, while institutions own about 62%. The remainder is held by retail investors.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Friedberg Mercantile Group Ltd. holds 15.49%, Pan Atlantic Bank and Trust owns 10.23%, Van Eck Associates Corp. has 6.86%, and Kopernik Global Investors L.L.C. possesses 6.69%.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;There are around 104.35 million shares outstanding, with the company having a market cap of CA$3.73 billion and trading within a 52-week range of CA$13.44 to CA$54.29.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Cabral Gold Inc. (CBR:TSX.V;  CBGZF:OTCMKTS) raised CA$20M to expand drilling in Brazil&#x27;s Tapajos, accelerating resource growth across the district.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!CBR-3799019/C/CBR&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_9314&#x22;&#x3E;Cabral Gold Inc. (CBR:TSX.V; CBGZF:OTCMKTS)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; announced&#x3C;/a&#x3E; it is issuing new shares in a bought deal, with Stifel Canada as the underwriter. The two companies have agreed on 21,055,000 shares at CA$0.95 each, with an expected gross proceeds of CA$20,002,250. A further agreement gives the underwriters an overallotment option, allowing the purchase of 15% (3,158,250) of common shares. Stifel can purchase these shares in any quantity up to the maximum within the first 30 days of the deal closing, and a full purchase would add around CA$3 million to the deal.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

This bought deal financing will allow us to add more drill rigs to the current exploration program and drill the Jerimum Cima discovery, as well as several other gold discoveries within the district. The objective of the drill program will be to accelerate the growth of the indicated and inferred resources within the district, particularly in the primary hard rock material, which is expected to be the basis of the phase 2 development at Cuiu Cuiu. The phase 1 gold-in-oxide project remains on schedule and on budget with commercial gold production expected in Q4 2026.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://finance.yahoo.com/personal-finance/investing/article/gold-price-today-tuesday-march-31-gold-price-strengthens-after-report-that-trump-is-considering-war-exit-111116757.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;According to a March 31, 2026, article by Catherine Brock for Yahoo Finance&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, &#x22;Gold June futures opened at US$4,538.90 per troy ounce on Tuesday, 0.4% lower than Monday&#x27;s closing price of US$4,557.50. The gold price rose in early trading.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At the same time, Trump has expressed a desire to simply &#x27;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.kitco.com/news/article/2026-03-30/price-gains-gold-silver-renewed-safe-haven-demand&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;take the oil in Iran&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x27; due to the ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Uncertainty like this has steered some investors to buy solid commodities, like gold.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 30, 2026, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.kitco.com/news/article/2026-03-30/price-gains-gold-silver-renewed-safe-haven-demand&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Jim Wyckoff wrote for Kitco&#x3C;/a&#x3E;: &#x22;Gold and silver prices are higher in early U.S. trading today, as traders and investors stepped up their safe-haven buying as the war in the Middle East is still running hot. Down-ticks in global government bond prices and higher crude oil prices today are also supportive for the two precious metals markets.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite the recent downturn in the gold market, many investors are looking to the future. &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://vongreyerz.gold/haycock-piepenburg-golds-pullback-may-be-the-best-entry-point-in-years?utm_campaign=163139794-2025%20-%20Newsletters&#x26;amp;utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;_hsenc=p2ANqtz-99zdr6kjFvac9VhD7n3-GiaJ0w8b8170LG-fSo200OjdBqC90tKMoffV3aZFmbKJU2AlcYVyhv0o08XLpb3IiPpOSPaO5lSq44puHU9kfQIIaiaRI&#x26;amp;_hsmi=132300172&#x26;amp;utm_content=132300172&#x26;amp;utm_source=hs_email&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Matthew Piepenburg said for Von Greyetz Gold&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 31, 2026, that &#x22;. . . what may appear to be a weakness today could, in reality, represent a rare and strategic entry point for those who understand physical gold&#x27;s role as a long-term store of value.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;For &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://thegoldadvisor.com/the-gold-advisor/newsletters/prince-silver-cabral-gold-american-pacific/#cg&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;The Gold Advisor&#x3C;/em&#x3E;, Senior Analyst Jeff Valks commented&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on the company&#x27;s bought deal on March 25: &#x22;We like this move because treasury just got stronger ahead of a larger drilling push. Management also noted the underwriting syndicate committed to purchasing the full offering upfront &#x26;mdash; providing certainty of funds and speed to closing. The placement came at roughly a 7% discount to market, with no warrants attached, which keeps dilution cleaner than many junior financings.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Many investors fear dilution, but Valks argued that, &#x22;This is obviously not &#x27;keep-the-lights-on&#x27; dilution. That&#x27;s &#x27;accelerate-the-district&#x27; dilution.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Valks reiterated his previous &#x22;Buy&#x22; rating for Cabral Gold, noting that the company has fresh capital and multiple catalysts lined up. [OWNERSHIP_CHART-9314]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

<title>A Major Currency Event is Unfolding</title>
<link>https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/03/31/a-major-currency-event-if-unfolding.html</link>
<description>
      &#x3C;p class=&#x22;articleSource&#x22;&#x3E;
        &#x3C;b&#x3E;Source: &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/03/31/a-major-currency-event-if-unfolding.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22;&#x3E;Barry Dawes   03/31/2026&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/b&#x3E;
      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	With Operation Epic Fury still on everyone&#x27;s minds, Barry Dawes of Martin Place Securities shares his thoughts on the market and where currencies are headed.&#x3C;p&#x3E;Epic Fury is still the focus and the implications are that a long war with boots on the ground will be endless and energy prices will strangle the world economy.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But it probably won&#x27;t run that way.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;There is another government working in Iran that let 10 tankers through the Strait of Hormuz.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In addition, the UAE is moving to reclaim three islands after the November 1971 Seizure (or Occupation) of Abu Musa and the Greater and Lesser Tunbs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Change in control here could also change the control of the flow of tankers in the Strait.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633161643_1.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;600&#x22; height=&#x22;370&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The IRGC is now severely weakened and as an invading Terrorist government it is soon likely to be overthrown by the 55m Persians (60% of a 90million population).&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Rear guard actions from an ever-dwindling IRGC are likely to just fizzle out.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;No boots on the ground for this one.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Treasury Secretary Bessent says &#x26;gt;400m bbls of oil are available in floating and other storage to ease pressures.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Oil was looking toppy in Friday&#x27;s US markets, and although it is higher today in Asian trading, let&#x27;s see where it settles overnight.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633161713_2.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;700&#x22; height=&#x22;530&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Gold&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Still doesn&#x27;t look like time for a reversal.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Oversold, but the technicals for a reversal are not quite there.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Did gold complete a `C&#x27; Wave as the end of the correction to mark the end of Wave 4?&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The gold bulls think so.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;So now off to wave 5 and a new high.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This is now the most widely accepted view in the market.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But if it does, it WILL then mark the end of this bull market.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;So that is probably not the most likely outcome.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Do keep in mind it is just possible every rally will be sold into because so many late entrants in gold are underwater.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633161737_3.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;491&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;So just let the markets tell us what the next move is.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;But also watch the currencies as well as noted below.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633161807_3.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;700&#x22; height=&#x22;530&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Silver&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The silver squeeze doesn&#x27;t seem to have eventuated.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Silver and silver stocks are just having spike highs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Gold Stocks&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Spike highs here, too, in the long-term charts.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It&#x27;s hard to imagine new surges with the long-term so strongly overbought.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633162001_7.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;700&#x22; height=&#x22;530&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;These indices need to turn up quickly, or they will become continuation patterns and not reversal patterns.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Individual stocks aren&#x27;t showing constructive reversal patterns.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;ASX Gold Index&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The ASX Gold Index has 55 stocks again.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Last time it had this many was in 2011.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Was down to sub 20 in 2014.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;There was a big volume and value on March 20, but less in the low of March 23, and steadily lower each day since.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633162321_9.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;456&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Peak volume was on March 20, but the low was on March 23.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633162339_10.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;293&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Even more concerning is that transactions from October 1, 2025, to February 28, 2026, totalling AU$91.6bn and 33.3bn shares are all in losing positions at today&#x27;s price level.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This is a major overhang.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Volume needs to pick up soon.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;European currencies and the Yen are heading much lower.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;These falling currencies won&#x27;t help the gold bull case.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Energy importers are going to suffer.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Yen is very close to the mid-2024 low, and after that, it is just a 25% fall in a short time.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Euro failed to break above its 50 year uptrend and has turned down to fall below parity and probably thereafter to its demise.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;NATO is indeed a paper tiger, and Western Europe will be left defenceless.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;High taxes, big debts, no oil or gas, mass immigration, and tyrannical bureaucrats in charge.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The EU can&#x27;t possibly hold together for much longer.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The GB Pound failed to break long-term resistance and is now heading down.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The SF also failed to break higher and regain strength above its 50-year uptrend.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Upsloping wedge says heading back to parity.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Stupidity and arrogance are leaving Western Europe increasingly irrelevant to the world economy of the decades ahead.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

        &#x3C;b&#x3E;Source: &#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/article/2026/03/31/high-grade-breccia-discovery-in-mexico-may-point-to-a-larger-porphyry-system.html?utm_medium=feed&#x22;&#x3E;John Newell   03/31/2026&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/b&#x3E;
      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	John Newell of John Newell &#x26; Associates reviews Regency Silver Corp. (RSMX:TSX.V; RSMXF:OTCQB) to explain why he thinks the company is a Speculative Buy.&#x3C;p&#x3E;Gold and silver prices have been strengthening as investors increasingly turn toward hard assets in response to persistent inflation, rising government debt, and growing geopolitical uncertainty. In environments like this, discovery-stage exploration companies operating in prolific mining districts can attract significant attention when drill results begin to reveal the potential scale of a mineral system.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;That appears to be the situation developing at the Dios Padre Project in Sonora, Mexico, where &#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_11413&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11413?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Regency Silver Corp. (RSMX:TSX.V; RSMXF:OTCQB)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E; has been intersecting significant gold, silver, and copper mineralization within a breccia system that may represent the upper portion of a much larger porphyry-style deposit.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Located within the prolific Laramide porphyry belt, the project sits in the same geological corridor that hosts some of the largest copper and gold systems in North America. With an initial silver-equivalent resource already outlined and continued exploration expanding the mineralized footprint, Regency Silver is positioning itself as a discovery-stage company operating in one of Mexico&#x27;s most productive mining regions.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;About the Company&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Regency Silver Corp. (RSMX:TSX.V; RSMXF:OTCQB), is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on discovering and advancing precious and base metal deposits in mining-friendly jurisdictions.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Its flagship asset is the Dios Padre Project, located in the state of Sonora in northern Mexico, approximately midway between Hermosillo and Chihuahua City. The project benefits from excellent infrastructure, including road access, nearby power, and a skilled mining workforce.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The property hosts a past-producing silver mine and sits within the Laramide porphyry belt, a geological corridor that stretches from Arizona through northern Mexico and hosts many of the world&#x27;s largest copper-gold deposits.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Regency has already outlined an NI 43-101 inferred resource of approximately 11.375 million ounces of silver equivalent, representing 1.384 million tonnes grading 255.64 g/t silver equivalent.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;While still early stage, continued drilling suggests the mineralized system may extend well beyond the currently defined resource area.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Sonora Mining District: A Proven Fertile Geological Neighborhood&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;center_enlarge&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633152030_1.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;355&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Mining history often teaches a simple lesson: the best place to find a new mine is near an existing one.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Sonora region of Mexico is one of the most productive mining districts in North America and hosts several large operating mines.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Nearby operations include &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_521&#x22;&#x3E;Pan American Silver Corp.&#x27;s (PAAS:TSX; PAAS:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; Dolores Mine, &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_629&#x22;&#x3E;Alamos Gold Inc.&#x27;s (AGI:TSX; AGI:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; Mulatos Mine, and &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_2&#x22;&#x3E;Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd.&#x27;s (AEM:TSX; AEM:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; La India and Pinos Altos mines. These operations have collectively produced millions of ounces of gold and silver and demonstrate the strong mineral endowment of the district.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;While Regency Silver does not hold interests in these neighboring operations, their presence highlights the fertility of the region and reinforces the geological potential for additional discoveries throughout this part of Mexico.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;The Project That Could Drive the Company&#x27;s Value&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;center_enlarge&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633152045_2.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;577&#x22; height=&#x22;317&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Dios Padre Project represents the central focus of Regency Silver&#x27;s exploration strategy.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The property hosts a historic silver mine as well as a large mineralized breccia system discovered beneath the old workings. Geological evidence suggests the breccia zone may represent the upper expression of a deeper porphyry-style copper-gold system.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;center_enlarge&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633152059_3.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;553&#x22; height=&#x22;310&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Drilling over the past several exploration campaigns has returned a number of impressive intercepts.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Among the most notable results are:&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;Hole REG-23-21 returned 54.65 metres grading 5.34 g/t gold, including 38 metres grading 7.36 g/t gold&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;Hole REG-22-01 returned 53.8 metres grading 4.7 g/t gold, including 35.8 metres grading 6.84 g/t gold&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;Hole REG-23-14 returned 29.4 metres grading 6.32 g/t gold&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;Hole REG-25-25 returned 9 metres grading 5.34 g/t gold&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;/ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;These intersections occur within a mineralized breccia body that remains open in multiple directions, suggesting the system could continue to expand with additional drilling.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;One geological feature that makes the discovery particularly intriguing is the presence of a mineralized breccia system, which in many mining districts represents the upper portion of a deeper porphyry deposit. Breccias form when hydrothermal fluids fracture and collapse surrounding rock during the early stages of a large mineralizing event. In some cases, these breccia zones sit above the intrusive source of the system, where copper, gold, and silver mineralization can become much larger at depth.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Historic drilling at the project has also intersected exceptionally high-grade silver mineralization, including 32.5 metres of 408 g/t silver and 28.8 metres of 467.8 g/t silver, highlighting the strength of the mineralizing system already identified on the property. Recent drilling below the historic mine extended the silver zone an additional 125 metres and returned 9 metres of 158 g/t silver and 0.68% copper.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Management&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Regency Silver is led by a team with extensive experience operating in Mexico&#x27;s mining industry.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Founder and CEO Bruce Bragagnolo previously co-founded Timmins Gold Corp., which built and operated the San Francisco Mine in Sonora. During his leadership, the company grew from a small IPO into a producing gold company with a market capitalization approaching US$475 million during the last precious metals cycle.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;He was also a founder of Silvermex Resources, which was ultimately acquired by First Majestic Silver.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company&#x27;s technical leadership includes Michael Tucker, P.Geo, an experienced exploration geologist who serves as both director and head geologist.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Together, the team combines geological expertise, capital markets experience, and a long track record of operating in Mexico.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/2026331112221_image008.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;562&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Share Structure&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633152320_image0071.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;1000&#x22; height=&#x22;563&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;According to the company&#x27;s most recent corporate presentation, Regency Silver has a relatively tight share structure for a discovery-stage exploration company.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Current capitalization includes approximately:&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;138,026,099 shares issued and outstanding&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;9,320,000 stock options&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;65,207,125 share purchase warrants&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;6,349,227 broker warrants&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;/ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This results in a fully diluted share count of approximately 187 million shares.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;For investors, this provides meaningful leverage to exploration success if the company continues to expand the discovery.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Technical Analysis&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;center_enlarge&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633152152_6.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;568&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;From a technical standpoint, the long-term chart for Regency Silver illustrates the type of pattern often seen in junior exploration companies following a prolonged bear market in the sector.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;After an early exploration success pushed the shares sharply higher, the stock entered a multi-year correction as the broader junior mining sector experienced a difficult market environment. During that period, the shares spent considerable time building a base while selling pressure gradually diminished.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;More recently, the chart has begun to show signs of improvement.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The shares appear to have broken out of a declining wedge pattern, accompanied by increasing volume that suggests renewed buying interest as the selling pressure from earlier cycles began to exhaust itself.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Following that breakout, the stock advanced toward the CA$0.30&#x26;ndash;CA$0.35 range, where it encountered resistance from earlier investors.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The recent pullback toward the CA$0.18&#x26;ndash;CA$0.20 area appears to represent a normal consolidation and may offer investors another opportunity to establish positions if the broader trend continues to develop.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;If the breakout continues to confirm, the chart suggests potential upside targets of:&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;First Target: CA$0.45 (just missed this target on the first move to CA$0.435 cents)&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;Second Target: CA$0.65&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;li&#x3E;Third Target: CA$0.95&#x3C;/li&#x3E;
&#x3C;/ul&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Looking further out, the larger chart structure suggests a big picture target of approximately CA$2.20 should exploration success continue and market interest return to discovery-stage companies.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Why Discoveries Matter in a Bull Market&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In strong precious metals markets, the companies that often generate the largest returns are not always the producers, but the explorers that make new discoveries.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;When gold and silver prices are rising, major mining companies begin searching more aggressively for new deposits to replace declining reserves. That creates an environment where exploration success can quickly attract market attention and, in some cases, strategic interest from larger companies looking to secure future production.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Discovery-stage companies, therefore, offer a unique form of leverage. A single successful drill program that expands a mineralized system can dramatically change how the market values a project, especially when that discovery occurs in a prolific mining district with established infrastructure and nearby operating mines.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;For investors who understand the risks of exploration, these early-stage discoveries can sometimes provide exposure to the type of value creation that defines the most successful mining cycles.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Investment Highlights and Risks&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Several factors help define the opportunity for Regency Silver.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company controls a project located within a highly productive mining district with a long history of discovery and production. The presence of multiple nearby operating mines demonstrates the geological fertility of the region.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The Dios Padre project already hosts a defined resource and has returned high-grade drill results suggesting the mineralized system could expand significantly with additional drilling.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;At the same time, Regency Silver remains an exploration-stage company, and inferred resources carry a lower level of geological confidence than more advanced resource categories.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Future progress will depend on continued exploration success, access to capital markets, and commodity price conditions for silver, gold, and copper.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Conclusion&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In the junior mining sector, discovery stories often begin quietly before eventually attracting broader investor attention as drilling begins to outline the scale of a mineral system.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Regency Silver Corp. (RSMX:TSX.V; RSMXF:OTCQB) appears to be at that early stage today.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The company has already demonstrated the presence of a high-grade gold-silver-copper breccia system at its Dios Padre Project in Sonora, Mexico, and geological modeling suggests the mineralization may be connected to a larger porphyry system at depth.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;With encouraging drill results, an experienced management team, and a project located in one of Mexico&#x27;s most productive mining regions, Regency Silver offers investors exposure to both exploration upside and strengthening precious metals markets.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Based on the current chart structure and the exploration potential of the project, Regency Silver Corp. appears to represent a Speculative Buy near the CA$0.16&#x26;ndash;CA$0.20 range, with meaningful upside should future drilling confirm the geological model and continue expanding the discovery.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Armory Mining Corp. (ARMY:CSE; RMRYF:OTC; J2S:FRA) acquired and is reprocessing historical geophysical data from its Riley Creek antimony-gold project in British Columbia.&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;10&#x22; data-end=&#x22;435&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11239?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Armory Mining Corp. (ARMY:CSE; RMRYF:OTC; J2S:FRA)&#x3C;/a&#x3E; reported &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.armorymining.com/20260325-armory-mining-acquires-geological-data-for-the-riley-creek-antimony-gold-project-british-columbia&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;that it has acquired historical geological data for its Riley Creek antimony-gold project in British Columbia and plans to conduct a detailed analysis using modern interpretation methods and advanced software.&#x3C;/a&#x3E; The company stated that it anticipates commencing the data review immediately and intends to begin its previously stated work within the next 90 days.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;437&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1031&#x22;&#x3E;According to the company, the dataset includes results from a 1995 airborne geophysical survey conducted by Dighem, which incorporated magnetometer, electromagnetic, and radiometric data. The survey covered approximately 575 line kilometers using east-west-oriented flight lines spaced at 100-meter intervals. The original 1997 interpretation identified 11 areas of interest based on geophysical anomalies and structural complexity, including multiple fault systems, potential intrusive contacts, radiometric anomalies, and electromagnetic conductors that warranted follow-up ground evaluation.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1033&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1375&#x22;&#x3E;The company stated that it plans to digitize and analyze the complete dataset using current processing algorithms and interpretation techniques that were not available at the time of the original survey. Advances in geophysical software now allow for enhanced data filtering, three-dimensional modeling, and integration of multiple datasets.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1377&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1885&#x22;&#x3E;&#x22;By applying modern processing techniques to this high-quality dataset, we believe it will yield valuable insights and assist us in identifying priority drill targets,&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.armorymining.com/20260325-armory-mining-acquires-geological-data-for-the-riley-creek-antimony-gold-project-british-columbia&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;said Alex Klenman, Chief Executive Officer, in the news release.&#x3C;/a&#x3E; &#x22;With planning underway for phased exploration at our Ammo antimony-gold project, and with this analysis program at Riley Creek expected to begin within the next 60 days, we continue to advance our projects and prepare for more comprehensive exploration programs over the coming year,&#x22; he added.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1887&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2258&#x22;&#x3E;The Riley Creek project is located on Graham Island in the Queen Charlotte Islands, British Columbia, and is accessible year-round via logging roads from Port Clements and Daajin Giids. The regional geology includes Jurassic Yakoun Formation sedimentary rocks, Tertiary Masset Formation volcanic flows and pyroclastics, and Tertiary plutonic intrusions of the Kano suite.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

The report noted that &#x22;the gold price continues to react to headlines about the Iran war&#x22; and added that &#x22;stable interest rates are better for the gold price than rising ones.&#x22; It also included commentary from market participants, with Darrell Fletcher stating that &#x22;buying high to hope for short-term higher is a tough strategy,&#x22; while Alex Tsepaev said that &#x22;gold should not be seen as a driver of supercharged returns &#x26;mdash; it&#x27;s there to act primarily as a stabilizer in a diversified portfolio.&#x22; The report further highlighted that gold prices had increased 4.6 percent over the past week and 46.8 percent over the past year.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG; OTC: BFGFF; FWB: YW5) engaged UAS Inc. to complete a high-resolution underground LiDAR survey at its Majuba Hill project in Nevada.&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;79&#x22; data-end=&#x22;429&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11069?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Giant Mining Corp. (CSE: BFG; OTC:BFGFF; FWB:YW5)&#x3C;/a&#x3E; announced &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!BFG-3799963/C/BFG&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;that it has engaged Unmanned Aerial Services Inc. to conduct a high-resolution underground LiDAR survey at its Majuba Hill Copper-Silver-Gold Project in Pershing County, Nevada&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. The survey will be carried out by UAS Inc.&#x26;rsquo;s U.S.-based team, with fieldwork scheduled for completion during the first two weeks of April 2026.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;431&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1013&#x22;&#x3E;The program will focus on detailed 3D mapping of accessible underground workings, including approximately 3,000 feet of drifting within the Middle Adit and approximately 169 feet of development within the Upper Adit. The survey will also include a network of historical stopes, multiple adits typically ranging from 6 to 8 feet in height, narrow stope openings averaging 30 to 40 inches in width, and several historical raises and winzes, with accessible raises generally less than 50 feet in height. The company noted that certain deeper winzes and other areas may be inaccessible.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1015&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1519&#x22;&#x3E;The LiDAR program is intended to generate a high-resolution digital model of underground workings to support structural interpretation, identification of historical mining orientations, and correlation with surface geology and drill data. The data is also expected to assist in targeting beneath and adjacent to historical workings. The company stated that interpretations derived from the survey are subject to limitations, including accessibility constraints and the need for geological interpretation.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1521&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1762&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!BFG-3799963/C/BFG&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;David Greenway, President and CEO of Giant Mining Corp., said in a company news release&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, &#x22;The engagement of UAS Inc. to complete an underground LiDAR survey is intended to support the Company&#x26;rsquo;s ongoing evaluation of the Majuba Hill project.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1764&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2290&#x22;&#x3E;The survey is being conducted in advance of the company&#x26;rsquo;s previously announced up to 10,000-foot core drilling program. The LiDAR dataset is expected to be integrated with existing geological and geophysical data to refine drill collar locations and improve targeting precision, including areas beneath historical workings that have seen limited modern drilling. The company also noted that Majuba Hill hosts extensive historical underground development, including past work conducted by Freeport Sulphur Company in the 1940s.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;2292&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2615&#x22;&#x3E;The LiDAR program is part of the company&#x26;rsquo;s broader 2026 exploration strategy, which includes an up to 10,000-foot diamond drill program targeting breccia-hosted and intrusive-related copper-silver-gold mineralization, along with the integration of historical data, surface exploration, and AI-assisted geological targeting.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

The report stated that &#x22;gold, silver, and platinum staged a sharp recovery on Friday, supported by renewed optimism around a potential de-escalation in the Middle East,&#x22; while noting that &#x22;the broader base metals group remained mixed, suggesting limited conviction among investors.&#x22; It added that &#x22;copper remained broadly stable during the week, edging up 0.2%, indicating resilience despite ongoing concerns around global growth and tighter financial conditions.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;685&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1086&#x22;&#x3E;The same report also described how monetary policy expectations influenced metals pricing, stating that &#x22;expectations of higher interest rates could continue to support government bond yields, creating a headwind for non-yielding precious metals.&#x22; It further noted that &#x22;expectations that interest rates are likely to remain elevated this year continue to weigh on non-yielding assets such as Silver.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;598&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1029&#x22;&#x3E;Newell wrote that the Majuba Hill project is &#x22;a large, porphyry-style copper system located in Pershing County, Nevada, roughly 70 miles southwest of Winnemucca,&#x22; and noted that it &#x22;benefits from excellent infrastructure, road access, nearby power, and a long history of mining activity.&#x22; He also stated that &#x22;historic underground production at Majuba Hill dates back to the early 1900s and includes copper, silver, gold, and tin.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1031&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1455&#x22;&#x3E;The report stated that multiple drill campaigns had been completed between 2020 and 2025, noting that &#x22;Giant Mining has completed more than 100 drill holes totaling over 80,000 feet of drilling.&#x22; Newell added that &#x22;recent programs have focused on expanding known copper mineralization, testing deeper sulphide targets, and following up on resistivity anomalies generated through modern geophysics and AI-assisted targeting.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1457&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1963&#x22;&#x3E;In addition to Majuba Hill, the report referenced another asset, stating that &#x22;Giant Mining Corp. holds a 20% ownership interest in the Friday Gold Project, located in the Orogrande Mining District of Idaho, approximately 16 kilometres south-southwest of Elk City.&#x22; It further noted that the project hosts &#x22;a historical NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate totaling more than 1.2 million ounces of gold across indicated and inferred categories at grades near 1.0 g/t gold, based on a 2013 technical report.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1965&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2361&#x22;&#x3E;Regarding leadership, Newell wrote that &#x22;Giant Mining Corp. is led by a management team that combines capital markets experience with deep technical and operational expertise in copper exploration and development.&#x22; The report added that David Greenway &#x22;brings more than 20 years of experience in building, financing, and advancing public companies, with a strong emphasis on the resource sector.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1965&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2361&#x22;&#x3E;Newell gave Giant a Speculative Buy rating in his article, and a long-term target price of CA$2.74.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Vanguard Mining Corp. (UUU:CSE; UUUFF:OTC; SL51:FWB) filed its first NI 43-101 report for the Redonda project, outlining a large copper-molybdenum system with mineralization open in multiple directions.&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;0&#x22; data-end=&#x22;532&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/11343?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Vanguard Mining Corp. (UUU:CSE; UUUFF:OTC; SL51:FWB)&#x3C;/a&#x3E; reported&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://vanguardminingcorp.com/news/redonda-ni-43-101-technical-report-copper-molybdenum/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E; that it has completed and filed its first National Instrument 43-101 technical report for its 100%-owned Redonda copper-molybdenum project located in the Vancouver mining division near Campbell River, British Columbia.&#x3C;/a&#x3E; The company stated that the report was prepared in accordance with Canadian Securities Administrators&#x27; NI 43-101 standards and incorporates results from its 2025-2026 drill campaign, updated geophysical data, and historical drilling completed by Teck Resources Ltd. in 1979.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;534&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1130&#x22;&#x3E;According to the company, the report outlines a mineralized footprint exceeding approximately 600 meters in strike, 500 meters in width, and 300 meters vertically. The report also includes multiple drill holes intersecting long intervals of copper-molybdenum mineralization, including zones exceeding 100 meters in length, as well as several drill holes encountering mineralization beginning near surface. Vanguard stated that recent drilling supports a multiphase intrusive and breccia-hosted porphyry system with a mineralized core, with mineralization remaining open at depth and along strike.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1132&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1377&#x22;&#x3E;&#x22;This report represents a major milestone for Vanguard,&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://vanguardminingcorp.com/news/redonda-ni-43-101-technical-report-copper-molybdenum/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;said David Greenway, chief executive officer, in the news release&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. &#x22;We now have independent confirmation of a large-scale copper-molybdenum system at Redonda, supported by both historical and modern drilling.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1379&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1797&#x22;&#x3E;The Redonda project comprises nine mineral claims totaling 2,746.46 hectares on West Redonda Island, approximately 40 kilometers northeast of Campbell River, and is accessible year-round by barge. The company stated that the project is situated within the Coast suture zone between the Wrangellia terrane and the Coast plutonic complex, with mineralization associated with a hornblende porphyry dike and breccia zones.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

The company stated that the accelerated warrants were originally issued in connection with financings completed on February 6, 2025, August 1, 2025, and August 27, 2025, and that the expiry date was accelerated to March 5, 2026. Following the exercise period, 650,000 warrants at $0.10 and 817,466 warrants at $0.22 expired unexercised, with 351,238 warrants remaining outstanding at $0.22 per share expiring February 2027.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

Morgan projected &#x22;an even steeper 330,000 metric ton shortfall,&#x22; with demand driven by hyperscale data centers and ongoing supply challenges. The report also stated that &#x22;global production is struggling to keep pace, weighed down by prolonged mine closures and downgraded output guidance from major operations in Chile,&#x22; highlighting constraints on supply.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

Chief financial officer Alejandro Sanhueza said, &#x22;We haven&#x26;rsquo;t yet been directly affected by the Middle East situation, but we are exposed to international prices.&#x22; The same report noted that copper prices had &#x22;fallen almost 9% since the war began,&#x22; reflecting market sensitivity to geopolitical risks, while also stating that &#x22;the underlying supply&#x26;ndash;demand balance remains supportive.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

That appears to be unfolding now.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;386&#x22; data-end=&#x22;800&#x22;&#x3E;Newell stated that &#x22;Since our last report, the company has strengthened its South American uranium position and secured environmental permits on its Paraguayan projects, marking tangible progress beyond early-stage concept.&#x22; He added, &#x22;Recent news confirms that Vanguard has expanded its uranium footprint in South America while also receiving environmental permits for its Paraguayan projects. This is important.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;802&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1248&#x22;&#x3E;In his technical analysis, Newell wrote that &#x22;The updated chart confirms that Vanguard Mining Corp. has completed a significant technical transition.&#x22; He stated that &#x22;Both the CA$0.32 first target and the CA$0.50 second target have now been met.&#x22; He added that &#x22;The breakout through former resistance occurred on expanding volume, a critical confirmation signal that accumulation was underway rather than a short-lived spike.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Michael Ballanger of GGM Advisory Inc. shares his thoughts on the current state of the market, and shares one copper stock on his list.&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072246_1.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Judging from the mood of the colour commentators on CNBC on the final trading day of the week and final Friday of the month and quarter, I would say that sentiment has taken a distinct turn for the worse and with it, Wall Street&#x27;s love affair with their president.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The MAGA narrative that has seen perma-bull traders buying every dip imaginable in what is undoubtedly an overpriced market was founded upon the concept that the president, obsessed with stock price performance as a measure of his presidentially stewardship, will always favour stocks over any actions either domestic or foreign that might endanger stocks. Herein lies the genus of the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Taco Trade&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22;, as in the &#x22;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;T&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;rump &#x3C;strong&#x3E;A&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;lways &#x3C;strong&#x3E;C&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;hickens &#x3C;strong&#x3E;O&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;ut&#x22; &#x3C;/em&#x3E;trade.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This week, the most powerful man in the Western World tried valiantly to thwart the rampaging oil bulls by first posting on Truth Social last weekend that the U.S. was engaged in &#x22;productive talks&#x22; with Iran that would lead to a cessation in hostilities. Alas, after a mere single session of panicky oil trade liquidations and even-more-panicky stock market short covering, markets called his bluff after it became apparent that the Iranians have rejected any and all overtures related to a ceasefire and definitely no concessions regarding the Strait of Hormuz.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;With stocks resuming the downtrend and oil resuming its uptrend, the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Taco Trade&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; was a definite &#x22;fail&#x22; as there was nothing Trump could do to arrest the slide in the Mag Seven as they all got summarily trounced going into the last weekly session and approaching month-end.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;float_left&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072327_2.jpg&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;299&#x22; height=&#x22;168&#x22; /&#x3E;If you recall the period immediately after Trump was re-elected in 2024, stocks went on an immediate &#x22;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;M&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;ake &#x3C;strong&#x3E;A&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;merica &#x3C;strong&#x3E;G&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;reat &#x3C;strong&#x3E;A&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;gain&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; rampage with the DJIA and S&#x26;amp;P making record highs and there was nothing the Teflon Don could do wrong until he started reading too many of his own press clippings and started to threaten his allies with tariffs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;That was when the markets all started to unravel and when coupled with his efforts (with Elon Musk as attack dog) to cut out all of the effluent from the Washington pork parade, it was all &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;straight south&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; for most equities until he woke up in late March and saw that his popularity ratings were dropping like drawers at a frat party.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Horrified at the crashing NASDAQ, Trump finally recanted, going full &#x3C;em&#x3E;&#x22;TACO trade&#x22; &#x3C;/em&#x3E;by rescinding and/or postponing most of the executive orders cancelling government departments and/or tariffs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;It then and only then that stocks caught a foothold and staged one of the most breathtaking reversals in history.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Last weekend, the President tried it again with those &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;productive talks&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; antics on Sunday such that by the time stocks opened last Monday, every business newscast was echoing the phrase &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;TACO trade&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; as this historic victory against the Iranian nation was a fait accompli.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;All week long, he was proposing farm subsidy proposals in photo-op appearances to win back the narrative but by the end of the week, traders has fully lost all hope and faith and scrambled to get portfolios &#x22;DE-RISKED&#x22; by the weekend.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;However, of note were a couple of interesting developments.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Gold and silver&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;, locked in the same death spiral as stocks since the war began on February 28, decided to decouple from their inverse relationship to oil as well as their perfectly-correlated relationship with stocks and headed north as oil severed its month-long lockstep with equities.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The &#x3C;strong&#x3E;CBOE Volatility Index (VIX:US)&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; closed at 31.05 which is important because spikes in volatility above 30 have historically been a signal to traders that the declines in stocks have been overdone.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The &#x3C;strong&#x3E;S&#x26;amp;P/TSX Composite&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; closed up as did the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;TSX Venture Exchange&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; which was encouraging because the Canadian indices are heavily-weighted in resources, particularly the TSXV so for subscribers to this publication, that news is very good indeed.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As I wrote to subscribers in the Friday pre-opening alert: &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;One caveat to shorting this market is the possibility that the declines in March will force rebalancing of portfolio allocations. Managers adhering to the 60-40 model (60% stocks / 40% bonds) have seen a fairly sharp drop in the 60% portion thanks to the turmoil in the Middle East. As a result, they may need to swap some of the 40% portion  now at perhaps 45-50% bonds &#x26;mdash; for stocks &#x26;mdash; now at perhaps 50-55% &#x26;mdash; in order to get back to the model allocations. Some estimates have up to $70 billion of buying lined up by the 60-40 gang as part of this rebalancing. &#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;That buying will start next week.&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072341_3.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;While the move in the VIX is not particularly predictive, the decoupling by gold and silver was &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;very&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; predictive because while gold and silver have been used historically as hedges against equity market drawdowns, the action in gold and stocks reeked of deleveraging. Portfolios teetering on the brink of destruction due to excessive leverage used their gold and silver positions to reduce overall leverage in their portfolios so as stocks declined, gold and silver (and the miners) were liquidated to reduce leverage. With gold and silver (and the miners) all rallying today against new 2026 lows in the S&#x26;amp;P and NASDAQ, it tells me that equities are ready for a rally, even if it turns out to be your classic &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;meatball rally&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; that lures in all the suckers that blew out positions this week.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I have been a &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;closet bear&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; on U.S stocks and have been punished mercilessly in my dogged insistence that &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_2600&#x22;&#x3E;Tesla Inc. (TSLA:NASDAQ) &#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;be viewed not as a robotics company or an &#x22;AI&#x22; company but rather as an &#x22;EV&#x22; company, as they had been trumpeting all during the rise from $25 back in 2020. In fact, they decided to change the Tesla narrative shortly after Elon was displaced by &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_10372&#x22;&#x3E;Oracle Corp. (ORCL:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; Chairman Larry Ellison on September 28&#x3C;sup&#x3E;th&#x3C;/sup&#x3E; as &#x22;the world&#x27;s richest man&#x22;. Within weeks, Elon went on a road trip around the world touting the robotics and &#x22;AI&#x22; transition for &#x3C;strong&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; which took the stock (and Elon&#x27;s net worth) to record highs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Fast forward to March 2026 where the &#x22;AI&#x22; stocks were trashed violently right up until the final bell on the final trading day. With the new &#x3C;strong&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; narrative now &#x22;AI&#x22; and robotics, what is the pivot to which Elon turns? Back to electric vehicles where China&#x27;s &#x3C;strong&#x3E;BYD&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; is eating their lunch?&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I remain short &#x3C;strong&#x3E;TSLA:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; via the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;T-Rex 2X&#x27;s Inverse Daily Tesla ETF (TSLZ:US)&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; where, despite averaging down in late 2025, I am still underwater by a paltry 3% (after being cyanotic in December down 45%) but I have told friends, colleagues, and subscribers that I will &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;not&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; cover the &#x3C;strong&#x3E;TSLZ:US&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; position until I see Tesla Inc. trading under $100 per share. Call it emotional; call it irrational; call it &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;my decision&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; and may the chips fall where they choose.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072412_4.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;375&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Apologies for getting distracted on failed electric vehicle manufacturers masquerading as &#x22;AI&#x22; companies, I turned cautiously bullish this week on markets after liquidating most of my energy names and looking for a tradable rally in stocks to commence next week, led &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;not&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; by the same names of last year post-Liberation Day but by the commodity producers including copper, nickel and the precious metals.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;This will not be the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;TACO Trade&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; because markets no longer trust the statements coming out of the White House. It will be an oversold rally in most sectors but the beginning of the &#x22;C-Wave&#x22; in the miners, which is typically and historically a show-stopper.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As for the precious metals, I have been using the $4,400 level for April gold as my re-test level of support since the $5,200 level but after knifing down through $4,400 during the March 22&#x3C;sup&#x3E;nd&#x3C;/sup&#x3E; crash to the 200-dma at $4,127 a week ago, it has since recovered back above $4,400. As I wrote earlier in this missive, the cessation of selling pressure on Friday was a surefire indication that once again, gold served its purpose of anchoring portfolios against severe drawdowns which means that the de-leveraging process has largely run its course.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072438_5.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;375&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;With the drop to the 200-dma, gold briefly dipped into &#x22;oversold&#x22; category for a very brief moment which I now view as a &#x22;successful re-test&#x22; setting us up for a tradable rally and possible long-term bottom.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Furthermore, downside risk should be limited to the uptrend line drawn off the October 2023 lows around $1,800 which sits around $3,750. Below that, I will take a ball-and-chain hammer to my forehead and chase my dog into the root cellar, an eventuality I consider highly unlikely.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Copper&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Copper&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; has been undergoing a correction not unlike the one we got in both gold, silver, and the broad equity markets but like April gold, May copper stopped on a veritable dime at the 200-dma at $5.24 and has since moved higher. There is always a point where panicky sellers are replaced with opportunistic buyers and that is what the watershed event was on March 22&#x3C;sup&#x3E;nd&#x3C;/sup&#x3E;. The last of the forced sellers were liquidated and the cash buyers emerged victorious with the one metal whose fundamental are markedly better than any other metal on the board and is now set to advance to test the January high at $6.6415/lb.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;With great relief verging on a near out-of-body experience of both joy and fulfillment, I bought back the 1,000 share position in the best-run company on the planet &#x26;mdash; &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_545&#x22;&#x3E;Freeport-McMoRan Inc. (FCX:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; &#x26;mdash; at $52.30 after being out of it since acting like a rank amateur and selling it in a fit after the &#x3C;em&#x3E;Grasberg Mine&#x3C;/em&#x3E; accident last summer.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I also added an initial tranche of the June calls on the expectation that I will see now record all-time highs by then above $70.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072520_7.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;472&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite all the furor over the Middle East and Private Credit in the month of March, I was blessed with the unique opportunity of watching all the copper stocks crash as the spectre of a 1973-1974 recession rushed in on the heels of $100 oil.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;I also added to &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_10000&#x22;&#x3E;Fitzroy Minerals Inc. (FTZ:TSX.V; FTZFF:OTCQB)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;whose management group closed a CAD $21 million financing on March 23, the day after copper bottomed. It was an enormous testimonial to that management group that they closed it at $.50 per unit with the stock closing at CAD $.385 that day.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Institutional buyers from outside North America cared not about the near-term weakness and instead focused on the near-term production potential that is definitely in the cards for &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;FTZ/FTZFF&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; that involves minimal CAPEX requirements and a deep-pocketed partner, &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Pucobre S.A.&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; (2&#x3C;sup&#x3E;nd&#x3C;/sup&#x3E; largest copper producer in Chile behind Codleco).&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072554_8.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;570&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The week ended with headlines all pointing to breakdowns in the bond market with yields rising to levels approaching the death-defying height of 5% for the 30-year and 4.5% for the 10-year (U.S. Treasuries). At the end of the day, the bond markets around the globe are many multiples the size of the global stock markets with the global currency markets dwarfing them both. I watch with morbid fascination when the debate in the court of social media devolves into verbal jousting over &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Gold versus Bitcoin&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x22; or &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;AI versus Robotics&#x22; or &#x22;Stocks versus Bonds&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; when the real debate should be firmly squared around the topic of &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;DEBT&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;When &#x22;chief investment strategists&#x22; at high-profile boutique brokerages write comprehensive articles on why &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;fiat currencies&#x22; &#x3C;/em&#x3E;are the only system of trade settlement available to the world without mentioning as much as one word about the erosion of purchasing power of the American currency since 1914, it absolutely boggles the mind.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Stocks have been declining due to fear over the inflationary impact of $100 oil which explains the reason the bond vigilantes have taken bond yields sharply higher. If rising energy costs are expected to throw the world economy into a recession, it is instructive to examine the reason yields are not declining in sympathy with lower global GDP. The reason is somewhat more insidious than simply &#x22;bonds fearing inflation&#x22;. It revolves not around the idea of one&#x27;s &#x22;return on investment&#x22; but rather the &#x22;return OF investment, as in one&#x27;s &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;u&#x3E;principal&#x3C;/u&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;. They estimate that it costs the U.S. government $1 billion per day to fund the current war effort in Iran so with interest payments on debt now exceeding the U.S. defense budget, how much longer can a technically insolvent country maintain its role as global policeman?&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In order to survive, either the U.S. government must defend the dollar and in order to do that, they will need to attract buyers of their Treasury Bonds. They can do that in only one manner &#x26;ndash; increase yields &#x26;ndash; and if they do that the debt servicing costs become unmanageable.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;img class=&#x22;No_img_class&#x22; src=&#x22;https://www.theaureport.com/images/auto_up/202633072646_9.png&#x22; alt=&#x22;&#x22; width=&#x22;624&#x22; height=&#x22;278&#x22; /&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;If they cannot get buyers for Treasuries, then investors worry about the &#x22;return OF investment&#x22; and they sell dollars. Either way, the recent rally in the dollar is going to meet a wall of resistance above par creating a potential tailwind for commodities, including copper and oil, with honourable mention to the precious metals.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;As the year rolls on, investors would be well-advised to carefully watch yields and the dollar as a failure to do so could result in portfolios failing to benefit from the &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;TACO Trade&#x22;&#x3C;/em&#x3E; but rather impudently pummelled from being &#x22;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Trump-ed&#x22;&#x26;hellip;&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

(ABX:TSX; B:NYSE)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; had another spanner thrown into its IPO plans when it was revealed that Tech Resources owns a valuable Net Profits Royalty over much of its new Fourmile project (see Bulletin #980).&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The royalty starts at 10% but increases to 15% after 6 million ounces have been produced.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;This is clearly a meaningful royalty that affects the economics of the project for the mine owner.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;The revelation of its existence came after a Canadian reporter reviewed country records. Barrick, however, which originally refused to comment and has still not put out an official release, seemed to dismiss its significance, stating simply that the royalty had been accounted for in its PEA study. But the fact that the market was unaware of this, that Barrick had not mentioned it in its various presentations&#x26;ndash;in September, at a very small group lunch, I sat through a 90-minute presentation from former CEO Mark Bristow, and nary a word about a royalty was spoken&#x26;ndash;is very disconcerting, at minimum. One highly respected gold analyst wrote that the company &#x22;probably doesn&#x27;t want (the Teck royalty) to be understood.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Analysts Reduce Estimates of the Project&#x27;s Value to Barrick &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Following the revelation, analysts rushed to reduce their estimates of Fourmile&#x27;s value (currently calculated at around 16% of Barrick&#x27;s NAV). Teck said simply that their royalty, which covers 26 acres in northern Eureka County, includes &#x22;a meaningful portion&#x22; of Fourmile, but &#x22;meaningful&#x22; could be quite a range.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Barrick now needs clearly to discuss the portion of the ground covered, the proportion of the resource covered, and where it falls in the mining plans. In its study, Barrick called for AISC of between $650 and $750 per ounce, but was using a gold price assumption of $2,585.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;Clearly, profits would be higher at a higher gold price, and so too would a royalty on profits, suggesting meaningfully higher costs.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Non-Disclosure Is a Significant Problem &#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The article in Toronto&#x27;s Globe and Mail suggested that the royalty could wreck Barrick&#x27;s IPO plans. That may be a step too far. Fourmile is a fabulous discovery and will be very profitable, even with this royalty. Rather than economics, the larger issue is one of disclosure. The fact that the market was unaware of the royalty is troublesome. One wonders if &#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_457&#x22;&#x3E;Newmont Corp. (NEM:NYSE; NGT:TSX; NEM:ASX)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; was aware. It also refused to comment.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;While the royalty does not disrupt any IPO plans, it suggests the IPO might be less valuable in the market. And there are other concerns that we have discussed, including Newmont&#x27;s allegations of mismanagement of the joint-venture Nevada mines and diversion of jv assets to Barrick&#x27;s sold-owned Fourmile (see Bulletins #999 and #997). Barrick, which has dropped 30% since its January peak, is a hold.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;We are not buyers again until there is greater clarity on the company&#x27;s IPO and other corporate plans, and issues with jv-partner Newmont have been resolved (or the stock gets stupidly cheap).&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22; style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;Orogen Cancels Equity Raise, Doesn&#x27;t Need the Money&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_10008&#x22;&#x3E;Orogen Royalties Inc. (OGN:TSXV; OGNNF:OTC)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; cancelled its proposed private placement (see Bulletin #1001) after the stock fell following the announcement. CEO Paddy Nicol, noting that the company was well funded to pursue its objective, stated that the cancellation &#x22;does not alter the company&#x27;s exploration and investment strategy.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p class=&#x22;font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]&#x22;&#x3E;He also noted that the company was pursuing &#x22;several acquisition opportunities&#x22;. Orogen is a strong buy at this level.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	B2Gold Corp. (BTG:NYSE; BTO:TSX; B2G:NSX) reported high-grade drill results and expanded resource potential from its 2025 Back River Gold District program.&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;10&#x22; data-end=&#x22;416&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_819&#x22;&#x3E;B2Gold Corp.

The company stated that results from the program confirm significant resource potential across the district, while also increasing deposit knowledge and supporting resource reclassification and mine planning.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;418&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1097&#x22;&#x3E;At the Goose Mine Llama deposit, infill drilling confirmed the continuity of high-grade gold mineralization sufficient to upgrade portions of the resource previously classified as Inferred. Reported drill results included 41.95 grams per tonne gold over 13.70 meters from 218.25 meters in drill hole 25GSE-702, 17.95 g/t gold over 38.20 meters from 501.10 meters in drill hole 25GSE-715Z1, and 19.74 g/t gold over 18.80 meters from 513.60 meters in drill hole 25GSE-720Z1, among other intersections. The company reported that mining operations are ongoing at the Umwelt deposit, with Llama scheduled as the next deposit to be mined under the current Goose Mine life of mine plan.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1099&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1344&#x22;&#x3E;The existing Indicated Mineral Resource estimate at Llama is reported as 3.04 million tonnes grading 7.72 g/t gold for 760,000 ounces, while the Inferred Mineral Resource estimate is 1.79 million tonnes grading 11.00 g/t gold for 637,000 ounces.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1346&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2077&#x22;&#x3E;At the Nuvuyak deposit, drilling intersected high-grade mineralization 1,000 meters west and down plunge of the Goose Main deposit. Drill hole 25GSE700Z2 returned 6.65 g/t gold over 27.28 meters from 1,017.05 meters. &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.b2gold.com/news-media/news-releases/news-details/2026/B2Gold-Announces-Positive-Results-from-its-2025-Exploration-Program-at-the-Back-River-Gold-District-Drill-Results-Confirm-Significant-Resource-Potential-District-Wide/default.aspx&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;The company stated in the news release that &#x22;results of the drilling program confirm the significant resource potential of the Back River Gold District, increase deposit knowledge, and support resource reclassification and overall mine planning.&#x22;&#x3C;/a&#x3E; The drilling extended high-grade mineralization approximately 150 meters to the north-northwest, demonstrating continuity within the deposit. The existing Inferred Mineral Resource at Nuvuyak is 2.63 million tonnes grading 8.26 g/t gold for a total of 700,000 ounces.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;2079&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2693&#x22;&#x3E;The 2025 exploration program included a total of 28,599 meters of drilling across 140 diamond drill holes, supported by a total budget of US$32 million.

&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;243&#x22; data-end=&#x22;585&#x22;&#x3E;The company stated that drilling began in late January 2026 and has so far included holes TS26-002a, TS26-003, and TS26-005, measuring 309 meters, 410 meters, and 477 meters respectively, for a total of 1,196 meters. The work forms part of a planned six-hole fence designed to systematically evaluate copper mineralization across the intrusion.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;587&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1002&#x22;&#x3E;During geological logging, all three holes intersected visually identifiable sulphide mineralization across broad intervals. Chalcopyrite with associated sulphides was observed as disseminations and veinlets over intervals of approximately 100 to 450 meters downhole. Ilmenite, identified as the principal titanium-bearing mineral within the Titac South resource, was observed throughout the intrusion in each hole.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1004&#x22; data-end=&#x22;1250&#x22;&#x3E;The company noted that mineral identifications are based on visual logging and remain subject to laboratory assay confirmation. Samples from completed holes have been prepared for shipment to an independent laboratory, with assay results pending.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

Chalcopyrite-bearing sulphide mineralization has been observed across intervals within the oxide ultramafic intrusion, while pervasive ilmenite remains evident throughout the core.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;1673&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2114&#x22;&#x3E;The phase 1 drill program is designed to evaluate copper mineralization within and adjacent to the existing Titac South inferred mineral resource estimate of approximately 46.6 million tonnes at 15 per cent TiO2, as reported in a technical report dated September 18, 2024. The company stated that fence-style drill sections are being used to transect the deposit and better understand geological and structural controls on copper mineralization.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p data-start=&#x22;2116&#x22; data-end=&#x22;2461&#x22;&#x3E;Core logging, sampling, and quality assurance and quality control procedures are continuing, with results to be released once received and validated.

It noted that one initiative, the First and Last Mile Fund, would provide up to CA$1.5 billion in federal support through to 2030 to address infrastructure gaps in mining projects, while a proposed CA$2 billion Critical Minerals Sovereign Fund would enable equity investments, loan guarantees, and supply agreements. The article also cited commentary from industry participants, stating that &#x22;there is a real strong sense of urgency within the government to build some resilience in that critical mineral space,&#x22; reflecting broader efforts to strengthen domestic supply chains and reduce reliance on external sources.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

(CA$0.32/US$0.23), which is currently drilling their Titac Property that lies within the Duluth Mining District in northeastern Minnesota.&#x22; Ballanger described the company&#x27;s project portfolio and regional setting, stating that &#x22;four Cu-Ni-Ti-V properties provide district-scale exploration opportunity over a 100 km strike length within 8,460 hectares, which provide opportunities for high-grade massive sulphide and disseminated styles of Cu-Ni &#x26;plusmn;PGEs mineralization.&#x22; He also commented that the properties were geologically &#x22;de-risked&#x22; and situated proximate to the Glencore-Teck Twin Metals Project. Regarding exploration activity, he wrote that the company &#x22;is drilling out the Titac in an attempt to expand the inferred titanium resource, a mineral deemed &#x27;critical&#x27; by the lawmakers in Washington.&#x22; He added that &#x22;any movement on the political side, and this company gets rerated higher in a New York nanosecond,&#x22; and reiterated that it was &#x22;one junior explorer that I own and like a great deal.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

Discussing the Titac Project, Newell wrote that the company had &#x22;now commenced diamond core drilling at the TITAC Project in Minnesota, targeting copper mineralization associated with the same intrusive package that already hosts a titanium dioxide resource,&#x22; and reported that the initial Phase 1 drilling program consisted of &#x22;six diamond drill holes, roughly 1,800 metres total.&#x22; In his conclusion, Newell wrote that Green Bridge Metals &#x22;remains a Speculative Buy&#x22; and identified the next resistance level near CA$0.40.

&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!TIGR-3799126/C/TIGR&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Robert Vallis, CEO of Tiger Gold, said&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 25, &#x22;Achieving DTC eligibility is a step forward for Tiger and our shareholders, as it simplifies trading for our U.S. investors and expands access to a broader audience. This milestone aligns with our commitment to enhancing liquidity and shareholder value, making it easier and more efficient for investors to participate in the growth of our company.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;All this came after the company&#x27;s move to &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!TIGR-3796626/C/TIGR&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;begin drilling at its Ceibal Target in central Colombia&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 17, 2026. This target is part of the larger Quinchia Gold Project in the Mid-Cauca gold belt. Previous explorations of this site showed long intersections of porphyry-style gold mineralization. This project is only one part of a larger 10,000-meter early drill program run by Tiger Gold.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Tiger Gold is a gold exploration and mine development company headquartered in Vancouver, BC, Canada, and is focused on projects in the proven Mid-Cauca belt in Colombia.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;Early this week, many investors in the gold sector panicked as the metal reached its lowest point in four months. Fears of high inflation due to the U.S.-Iran War and the bull market gold has been experiencing drove the market down. Small market players sold, while &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://stockhead.com.au/resources/gold-digger-is-gold-losing-its-cool/?utm_source=feedotter&#x26;amp;utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;utm_campaign=FO-03-27-2026&#x26;amp;utm_content=httpsstockheadcomauresourcesgolddiggerisgoldlosingitscool&#x26;amp;utm_medium=email&#x26;amp;utm_campaign=CB%20NL%20Mar%2027&#x26;amp;utm_content=CB%20NL%20Mar%2027+CID_cc87ab218a3ffdab2298e86911f5463f&#x26;amp;utm_source=Campaign%20Monitor&#x26;amp;utm_term=Gold%20Digger%20Is%20gold%20losing%20its%20cool&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;whale investors held on&#x3C;/a&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;Gold pulled back toward its rising moving averages this month, working off a bit of overbought pressure after a long, &#x3C;em&#x3E;strong&#x3C;/em&#x3E; winter run,&#x22; &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://thegoldadvisor.com/the-gold-advisor/newsletters/weekly-pan-out-49/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;wrote Jeff Valks of &#x3C;em&#x3E;The Gold Advisor&#x3C;/em&#x3E;&#x3C;/a&#x3E; on March 27, 2026. &#x22;Importantly, the longer-term trend remains intact &#x26;mdash; and as we&#x27;ve said all along, corrections like this are a normal feature of advancing bull markets, not a sign they&#x27;re ending.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;On March 26, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://aheadoftheherd.com/gold-demand-just-broke-a-record-supply-cant-keep-up/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;em&#x3E;Ahead of the Herd &#x3C;/em&#x3E;reported&#x3C;/a&#x3E; that, &#x22;A Reuters poll of analysts forecasts gold will deliver another record-setting year in 2026, with 95% of surveyed central banks expecting global holdings to rise, the highest share ever recorded. U.S. gold demand doubled to 679 tonnes in 2025, a 140% year-over-year increase, while ETF inflows reached 437 tonnes, pushing holdings to a record US$280 billion in assets under management.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://thegoldadvisor.com/paydirt-prospector/newsletters/strong-updates-from-6-stocks-as-volatility-creates-opportunity/#tg&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Analysts, Jeff Clark and Daniel Flynn, of &#x3C;em&#x3E;The Gold Advisor &#x3C;/em&#x3E;rated Tiger Gold a &#x22;Buy&#x22;&#x3C;/a&#x3E; in a March 26, 2026, report.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;They said, &#x22;We remain impressed with Tiger&#x27;s operational pace and efficiency. Our &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://thegoldadvisor.com/paydirt-prospector/newsletters/new-stock-pick-this-new-2moz-gold-developer-is-trading-at-a-fraction-of-its-peers-but-with-the-drill-bit-delivering-its-primed-for-a-re-rate/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;investment case&#x3C;/a&#x3E; has always been underpinned by the company&#x27;s discount to peers, combined with clear scope to grow scale at Quinchia and drive a re-rating. [The company&#x27;s project] Tesorito is already delivering strong results and growing in scale. Dos Quebradas offers near-term upside through the validation of its historical 500,000oz gold resource. Now, Ceibal introduces a third meaningful target, expanding the overall discovery potential across the project . . . In a more stable market backdrop, we expect this kind of operational momentum to translate more clearly into share price performance.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Also in favor of the stock, Bob Moriarty of 321gold.com shared a quote with &#x3C;em&#x3E;Streetwise Reports&#x3C;/em&#x3E; on March 27, 2026. &#x22;Tiger Gold is one of those resource juniors ignored by investors because it is young, only graduating to the TSX-V on the 26th of March. But with a 43-101 resource of 2.09 million ounces of gold in Colombia, with an additional 495,000 gold ounces in a historic resource at another portion, the shares are absurdly underpriced. With an NPV of CA$1.75 billion at US$4600 gold, I expect the market to reconsider the value soon. With a 10,000-meter drill program in progress, look for a steady stream of news flow.&#x22; [OWNERSHIP_CHART-11516]&#x3C;/p&#x3E;

      &#x3C;/p&#x3E;

 	Contango ORE Inc (CTGO:NYSEA) and Dolly Varden Silver Corp. (DV:TSX.V; DVS:NYSEA; DVQ:FSE) successfully complete what one expert calls a transformative merger. &#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x3C;span class=&#x22;for_co_card_8181&#x22;&#x3E;Contango ORE Inc (CTGO:NYSEA)&#x3C;/span&#x3E;&#x3C;/strong&#x3E; and &#x3C;span id=&#x22;link_copy_5439&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;a  href=&#x22;https://www.streetwisereports.com/pub/co/5439?utm_medium=feed&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Dolly Varden Silver Corp. (DV:TSX.V; DVS:NYSEA; DVQ:FSE)&#x3C;/a&#x3E;&#x3C;/span&#x3E; have successfully completed their merger, following the necessary approvals from shareholders and the court, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://dollyvardensilver.com/contango-completes-merger-with-dolly-varden/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;according to a March 26 release&#x3C;/a&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Contango has also initiated the process to list its shares on the Toronto Stock Exchange, pending fulfillment of listing criteria and the exchange&#x27;s approval. As part of the merger, all outstanding common shares of Dolly Varden were acquired by 1566004 B.C. Ltd. (Acquireco), a wholly owned subsidiary of Contango, through a statutory plan of arrangement. Dolly Varden shareholders received 0.1652 of a Contango common share or, for those eligible and electing, 0.1652 of an exchangeable share in Acquireco, each exchangeable into Contango shares on a one-to-one basis, as per the terms of the arrangement agreement dated December 7, 2025, and amended on February 11.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In this transaction, Contango issued approximately 13.7 million new shares and replacement options for around 417,000 shares, while Acquireco issued about 1.6 million exchangeable shares. Post-merger, Contango now has about 30.5 million shares outstanding, excluding the exchangeable shares. Detailed information about the merger can be found in Contango&#x27;s definitive proxy statement and Dolly Varden&#x27;s management information circular, available on Contango&#x27;s website and Dolly Varden&#x27;s SEDAR+ profile respectively.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The newly formed entity, retaining the name Contango Silver &#x26;amp; Gold Inc., combines Contango&#x27;s profitable Manh Choh gold mine and its advanced exploration projects in Alaska with Dolly Varden&#x27;s high-grade Kitsault Valley silver-gold project in British Columbia. This merger forms a significant North American mid-tier precious metals producer, boasting a rich portfolio of assets from advanced exploration to production stages in Alaska and British Columbia, over US$100 million in combined cash, and minimal debt.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Leadership of the merged company includes Chief Executive Officer Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse, President Shawn Khunkhun, and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Mike Clark, with a board comprising Clynt Nauman as chairman, among others.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Van Nieuwenhuyse expressed enthusiasm about the merger, stating, &#x22;This merger marks the start of an exciting new chapter.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;He highlighted the combined entity&#x27;s strong financial base, significant growth potential, and exceptional exploration prospects.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Khunkhun also commented on the merger&#x27;s benefits, noting, &#x22;Contango Silver &#x26;amp; Gold offers investors exposure to an emerging North American mid-tier producer focused on high-grade silver and gold assets.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Following the merger&#x27;s finalization, Dolly Varden&#x27;s shares are &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.stockwatch.com/News/Item/Z-C!DV-3799643/C/DV&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;set to be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange and the NYSE American&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, and the company will soon cease to be a reporting issuer in Canada.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;A &#x27;Transformative Move&#x27; for the Mining Sector&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://markets.financialcontent.com/stocks/article/marketminute-2026-3-26-consolidation-in-the-north-contango-ore-and-dolly-varden-silver-complete-landmark-merger-to-create-precious-metals-powerhouse&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;A March 26 piece by MarketMinute for FinancialContent.com on March 26&#x3C;/a&#x3E;, called the merger a &#x22;transformative move for the North American mining sector.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;The combined entity, rebranded as Contango Silver &#x26;amp; Gold Inc., begins its corporate life as a formidable mid-tier producer, boasting a high-grade asset portfolio spanning Alaska and British Columbia,&#x22; the article noted. &#x22;The merger establishes a unique &#x27;hub-and-spoke&#x27; platform that combines immediate cash flow from Alaskan gold production with one of the largest undeveloped high-grade silver-gold resources in Western Canada.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The financial outlook for the newly formed company is strong, boasting over US$100 million in cash and a modest debt of about US$15 million, MarketMinute noted. This financial health supports a vigorous US$50 million annual exploration budget across its diverse project pipeline. By merging Contango&#x26;rsquo;s profitable Manh Choh mine with Dolly Varden&#x26;rsquo;s extensive silver-gold resources, the company is poised to attract significant institutional investment, offering exposure to precious metals within top-tier jurisdictions.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite some market volatility influenced by a temporary dip in silver prices earlier in the year, the fundamental value of the merged entity remains solid, the article said. Industry analysts anticipate a significant &#x22;catch-up trade&#x22; as the new shares integrate into major precious metals indexes. The merger positions the combined company advantageously, allowing it to generate substantial cash flow while minimizing the need for dilutive financing, a common challenge among junior miners.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Looking ahead, Contango Silver &#x26;amp; Gold Inc. is set to focus on its high-margin &#x22;South Pit&#x22; at Manh Choh, projecting to drive free cash flow up to US$250 million by 2027. This robust financial base will support ambitious growth plans, including the potential acceleration of the Lucky Shot Project and an aggressive production target aiming for a significant annual output of gold and silver within the next five years.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;&#x27;No Drama&#x27; With Shareholder Vote&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In a March 26 updated research note for Cantor Fitzgerald, Analyst Mike Kozak called the result a &#x22;modest positive.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;The transaction creates a ~$575 million mid-tier North American precious metals focused miner/developer, combining near-term cash flow from Manh Choh with district-scale exploration upside at Kitsault Valley,&#x22; Kozak noted. &#x22;Pro-forma &#x26;gt;$100 million in cash and ~$34 million in debt.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;We had previously incorporated the DVS merger in our pro-forma CTGO estimates,&#x22; Kozak wrote. &#x22;Based on an unchanged target multiple of 1.75x NAVPS5.0%, we are maintaining our Speculative Buy rating and US$29/share price target on CTGO.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Also on March 26, Research Capital Corp. Analyst Stuart McDougall noted the firm would discontinue its coverage of Dolly Varden.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x22;The shares are expected to be delisted after the close, and investors should no longer rely on our recommendation or target price prior to the announced transaction,&#x22; McDougall wrote.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://thegoldadvisor.com/the-gold-advisor/newsletters/westward-gold-dolly-varden-silver/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Senior Analyst Jeff Valks from The Gold Advisor discussed&#x3C;/a&#x3E; the recent shareholder votes concerning the merger between Dolly Varden Silver and Contango. On March 18, Valks remarked, &#x22;No drama here. Dolly Varden Silver&#x26;rsquo;s shareholders just voted, 98.78% in favor of merging with Contango ORE. That&#x26;rsquo;s not a close call. That&#x26;rsquo;s everyone nodding at the same time. Contango shareholders also approved it. Two sides, same answer.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The merger represents more than just a shareholder agreement; it signifies a strategic consolidation of assets and a unified progression under the Contango banner, often referred to as a &#x22;merger of equals,&#x22; Valks noted. He also took a moment to acknowledge Dolly Varden&#x27;s significant pre-merger achievements, including notable drill results such as 4.66 grams per tonne (g/t) gold over 48.49 meters and 467 g/t silver over 15.32 meters, which will now enhance Contango&#x27;s asset portfolio.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Describing Contango&#x27;s market position, Valks noted, &#x22;Contango itself sits in an interesting lane &#x26;mdash; part explorer, part developer, part producer.&#x22; He mentioned the company&#x27;s recent inclusion in the GDXJ ETF and its significant stock price increase from US$9/share to a high of US$32.38. With the current trading price at a crucial support line of US$20.50, Valks advised a cautious approach: &#x22;Since you&#x26;rsquo;re getting shares through the deal anyway, don&#x26;rsquo;t rush here, see how it behaves before adding more.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Both he and Gold Advisor founder Jeff Clark continue to fully weight the stock.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;In related updates, Haywood Capital Markets revised its financial outlook for precious metals stocks on January 27, raising its gold price forecasts, adjusting foreign exchange rate assumptions, and lowering its Net Asset Value (NAV) multiple from 0.75x to 0.70x. Consequently, Haywood increased its target price for Dolly Varden&#x27;s shares from CA$11.25 to CA$14.00, maintaining a Buy recommendation.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;&#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://thegoldadvisor.com/silver-stock-investor/newsletters/quality-silver-miners-perform-attractive-silver-plays-9-company-updates/&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;Additionally, on February 25, Peter Krauth of The Silver Advisor identified&#x3C;/a&#x3E; Dolly Varden as offering the &#x22;best relative value&#x22; among its peers, suggesting the company merits further research and consideration. Krauth encouraged potential investors by stating, &#x22;In my view, they are worthy of research and consideration.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;h2 style=&#x22;text-align: center;&#x22;&#x3E;&#x3C;strong&#x3E;The Catalysts: The Ups and Downs of Gold and Silver&#x3C;/strong&#x3E;&#x3C;/h2&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;The precious metals market is experiencing an unusual twist in 2026, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://www.fxempire.com/forecasts/article/gold-xauusd-silver-price-forecast-safe-haven-exit-why-gold-is-diving-1587994&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;according to a report by Arslan Ali for FX Empire on March 27&#x3C;/a&#x3E;.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite typical triggers like escalating global tensions, investors are exiting rather than entering the market. Gold, for instance, has recently plummeted from its early March peak of US$5,200-US$5,400 per ounce, a dramatic rally that was quickly reversed by investors liquidating leveraged ETFs and responding to margin calls, overshadowing any potential safe-haven buying. Concurrently, the U.S. dollar is strengthening, and a hawkish Federal Reserve stance on inflation &#x26;mdash; fueled ironically by high oil prices &#x26;mdash; is making investors wary of non-interest-bearing assets.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Despite these market reactions, the structural demand for gold remains robust, Ali wrote. Central banks are purchasing gold at rates not seen since the 1960s, and major banks like J.P. Morgan, Deutsche Bank, and UBS are maintaining their 2026 gold price forecasts between $5,400 and $6,300 an ounce. These projections are based on factors such as the trend towards de-dollarization and sovereign fiscal imbalances.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Silver&#x27;s situation is more complex. After a 44% drop from its January 2026 high of US$121.64, silver&#x27;s dual role as both a store of value and an industrial component in technologies like solar panels, EVs, and semiconductors makes it particularly sensitive to shifts in market sentiment.

&#x3C;p&#x3E;The widening gold-silver ratio is prompting some analysts to view silver as potentially undervalued, drawing contrarian institutional interest. Despite the recent sell-off, most analysts view this as a temporary setback within a generally bullish trend.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;However, gold prices saw an uptick in Friday&#x27;s afternoon trading session, as investors gravitated back towards safe-haven assets amidst ongoing turmoil in the Middle East, &#x3C;a href=&#x22;https://uk.finance.yahoo.com/news/gold-and-silver-prices-rise-with-eyes-on-central-banks-and-iran-war-152817508.html&#x22; target=&#x22;_blank&#x22; rel=&#x22;noopener&#x22;&#x3E;according to a report by Lucy Harley-McKeown for Yahoo! Finance on March 27&#x3C;/a&#x3E;. This shift towards risk aversion was reflected in the downturn of US stock indices and the FTSE 100, which faltered as expectations of interest rate hikes increased due to the prolonged conflict in the region. The standoff continues between US President Donald Trump and Iranian authorities, fueling uncertainty.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Earlier in the week, precious metals and mining stocks had faltered under challenging market conditions, but they rebounded on Friday. By the afternoon, gold futures had climbed 1.8% to approximately US$4,490 per troy ounce, and spot gold increased by 2.9% to US$4,494 an ounce. Silver also experienced a rise, increasing by 1.9% to US$69.20.&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
&#x3C;p&#x3E;Susannah Streeter, chief investment strategist at Wealth Club, commented on the market dynamics, stating, &#x22;The surprise fall in precious metals prices has dragged down the mining sector. During previous eras of high geopolitical tensions, gold and silver have been sought out as safe havens. But the volatile moves we have seen in markets have upended norms, pushing down mining stocks.&#x22;&#x3C;/p&#x3E;
