The Cusp, the little Birds, the Falcon (FG.V)
Since our last dose of bullish commentary a few sessions back, the precious metal is still consolidating its dramatic gains registered earlier in the summer, but is in the process of testing higher ground, trading near the top of its range. In a recent Guru offering, we detailed many of the underlying fundamentals supporting the…

Falcon Gold (FG.V) is a tiny little bet on a big fat gold region
Close-ology is a mining term used to describe companies that are close to another company that is running red hot, and may justifiably make the case that they can be hot too. For some, like serial ring-staker Ryan Kalt, close-ology is a business model. The moment someone announces they’ve found something interesting in Dildo, Newfoundland…

Gold – the time is nigh
Gold appears to be setting up for a push higher, perhaps a sustainable push as we enter 2020. From a lowly $1275 in late May, the metal screamed higher topping out at roughly $1570.00 in early September (blue arrow). That was an impressive run. $1570.00 marked a six-year high. We registered our caution in these…

Nevada Sunrise (NEV.V) owns the remaining 20.9%. The price of admission for BARI isn’t chump change: US$7,500,000 plus…

The Golden Triangle – an update on a handful of advanced-stage exploration plays
Junior exploration companies—ExplorerCos, if you will—are high-risk propositions. It can take up to 1,000 grassroots projects to generate 100 targets worthy of a probe with the drill bit. Of those, perhaps five or ten will evolve into development projects. And of that small group, only one will become an actual (profitable) mine. Not great odds.…

A handful of ExplorerCo standouts in Nevada—the mother of all mining jurisdictions
A couple weeks back we took a look at some of the more prospective (and active) exploration plays in Ontario and Quebec, particularly those along the prolific Abitibi Greenstone Belt. Today we shift our focus further to the south, to Nevada. If Nevada were a country, it would be the 4th largest gold producing nation…

Ontario-Quebec ExplorerCos poised for potentially significant gains as the correction in gold matures
At the beginning of this year, and several times since, we covered numerous exploration plays on both sides of the Ontario-Quebec border—ExplorerCos kicking rocks and probing the subsurface of prolific geological settings like the Abitibi Greenstone Belt. Only the gold fields of South Africa have outproduced the Abitibi where more than 200 million ounces of…

Gold: the unbearable brightness unseen
Where is gold going? Where will the gold price settle as 2019 draws to a close? And where will it trade a year from now? If some renegade time-looper handed me an envelope with the answers to these questions, I’m confident I’d be able to convert mere tip jar coinage into a retirement fund that…
