Zentek (ZEN.V) took a years long path to figure out its incredible biotech potential
Today I found myself going down an investment rabbit hole, chasing information about a company that, to be honest, is wallowing, and has for a while. Unmarketed. Unexplained. Unsimple. Unloved. The company is Zentek (ZEN.V). Back in the day, it was an exploration play known as Zen Graphene Solutions that was more focused on developing…

New listing: Applied Graphite Technologies is the purest graphite pure play
Nobody understands graphite exploring. You know this, I know this. We can fake it for a bit based on general mining knowledge, but graphite doesn’t get much investor love because people don’t really understand it. They don’t know what good graphite is, what a good property is, what end users are looking for.. So here’s…

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.…

Weed roll-up BZAM (BZAM.C) used stock to buy assets <60 days before asking for creditor protection
You’ve built a decent little company. You’ve grown some brands. You’re feeling okay about things when a bigger company comes along, offers you a bunch of their stock, making you a significant shareholder, and tells you there are other strong hands in the investor base, including the wealthy chairman who has been lending the company…

Bionxt Solutions (BNXT.C) shows how pivots don’t have to mean resets
Several years back, Hugh Rogers was in my office talking about his cannabis company. Way back then, the plan was to grow in Germany and be first on the continent, using an old wartime bunker as a ‘safe growing facility’. Those plans morphed quickly as the reality of the cannabis space became clear. The cannabis…

Tisdale Clean Energy (TCEC.C): A 20-yr uranium basket case until… just now
If you factor in all the rollbacks and the sell-offs and the flat years and the crashes, the downturns and boardroom battles and pivots and losses, Tisdale Clean Energy Corp (TCEC.C) has been a decades-long garbage disposal for investor dollars.

Revive Therapeutics (RVV.C): Covid came, Covid went, but Revive is still fighting
Back at the dawn of Covid-19, a load of public companies started pumping out news releases that claimed they were going to be entering the medical space. In the best tradition of Howe Street, long dormant mining companies suddenly became med-tech deals, hawking everything from clear plastic checkout counter dividers to virus sniffing doorways to…

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…
