The unknown mining property that holds nickel copper, platinum… and uranium?
When I play roulette, and I’ve been known to, I like to place my bets across several spots on the table. A little on red, a little on the ‘3rd 12′, a little on ’19 to 36’, and finally a chip on 34, and I’m ready for the ball to roll. Resource investing invariably features…

Gold discovery moves Ramp Metals (RAMP.V) into a new direction, but they’ll take it
In March of this year, the crew at Ramp Metals (RAMP.V) set about plunging a drill or two into a relatively unknown Saskatchewan property called Rottenstone SW. It’s no secret that Saskatchewan, as a province, is largely known in mining circles for uranium. But the Ramp crew thought they might find high-grade nickel, copper, and…

Alaska Energy Metals (AEMC.V) sets a price base as new projects come into the fold
Smallcap resource explorers go through phases. Everyone likes to think investors jump on and never get off, riding one ticker all the way to production, but that’s just not true in practice. Some investors like the early ‘roulette wheel’ stages, where share prices move in half cent increments that offer 20+% gains. Some don’t want…

Alaska Energy Metals (AEMC.V): Another great deal the marketing guys burned, but look behind the curtain
You probably saw my piece about Tisdale Clean Energy (TCEC) yesterday. In it, I lay out how the guys setting up that deal pretty much seemed to have no interest in the gleaming uranium project they’d brought to market, leaving the company stock at a cheap price, with a shitty looking chart that’ll take some…

Now is your chance to get a better entry than Samsung on Canada Nickel (CNC.V)
Samsung. Everybody knows that Company. The South Korean giant is often thought of as a competitor against Apple for smart phones in the West. But they are far more than smart phones. This multinational conglomerate comprises numerous affiliated businesses, most of them united under the Samsung brand, and is the largest South Korean chaebol (business…

Ramp Metals (RAMP.V) looks to hit the ground running and let the drill tell the story
When a new mining explorer shows up on the public markets, the company in question usually doesn’t start from scratch – they start from below scratch. That’s because not only is a new mining story largely unknown, but the company itself has to get past the stigma that all pre-drilling microcap mineral explorers are bullshit.…

Marvel Discoveries (MARV.V) pounding out properties in multi-metal tsunami
I remember the day Karim Rayani called me up and said, “I’ve got a plan for Marvel Resources (MARV.V) and I said, “Cool, okay, I guess,” and he got a bit annoyed at me. I wasn’t taking him seriously because Marvel was tiny and there’s a lot of tiny mining explorers and as much as…

The Core Story: West High Yield Resources (WHY.V) has taken 20 years to be next in line
Part of what makes investing in mining explorers interesting is, you never know when your horse is running. You can trot down to fraser Downs and place a bet on a horse and, when the gates open, it’ll be off and running. Win or lose, at least you know there’s going to be a result.…

What went down at VRIC 2022? Junior mining is back!
The Vancouver Resource Investment Conference has come and gone. Amazing two days. There were some big names there such as the 22nd Prime Minister of Canada Stephen Harper, the former President of Mexico Felipe Calderon, Nomi Prins, Robert Kiyosaki, Danielle DiMartino Booth, Harry Dent, David Rosenberg and many more. I did not attend these talks,…

Fear and uncertainty at the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference
Another Vancouver Resource Investment Conference has come and gone and my fitbit racked up somewhere around 30,000 steps over the two day event. I probably lost weight at the conference but I definitely gained insight. Sure. I’ll share. This year’s VRIC was punctuated by a fair amount of anxiety, and dare I say it? Fear,…
