Mining for minors: Time for resource companies to figure out the money is in millennials
In 2015, when we started this outfit, our business model was to steer clear of conventional wisdom and the same old pubco marketing techniques, and instead focus on rich niches. Honest coverage of client companies that is negative when justified was one niche. Being inclusive of women was another. And appealing to a younger investor…

Pure Global Cannabis (PURE.V) is up nearly double in a week – and still dirt cheap
When I write about Pure Global (PURE.V), people get confused because a) they’re always down, and b) they’re not a client company. They should be a running joke, right? Like an Instadose or a Namaste (N.V). Well if you bought in when I did, that’s even truer. It hit the markets on opening day around…

Equitorial Exploration (EXX.V): The cheaper, busier lithium alternative to Quantum Minerals (QMC.V)
Last year, or maybe even the year before, we told you a story about a little gang of old timers who fell ass backwards into a soggy plop of ground in Manitoba that just happened to have lithium spodumene in it. QMC Quantum Minerals (QMC.V) duly became clients of ours and asked us to help…

Vitalhub (VHI.V): Undervalued health tech player is following RHT’s well worn path
About a year back, I told you guys about a telemedicine company called Reliq Health Technologies (RHT.V). You didn’t pay much attention because it was little and new and ‘telemedicine’ sounds like a Home Shopping Channel show at 2am that sells Acai supplements. But this is what happened soon after. A $5000 bet on the…

East West Petroleum (EW.V): March Moneyball pick has been sleepy for a long time, but signs are promising
The only better thing than a company you buy into moving its stock price up is buying into said company when nobody sees it coming and it’s still cheap. Last year we wrote about Azincourt Energy (AAZ.V) sounding like it was making quiet moves shortly before it announced some, we did the same with QMC…

Unreliable actors: How Nexus Gold (NXS.V) got shanked by ‘dark money’
It somewhat ominously calls itself, “First Choice for Dark Liquidity in Canada.“ If you don’t know what that means, you’re the mark. MATCHNOW TriAct Canada Marketplace LP offers specialized marketplaces and order execution services for Registered Canadian Investment Dealers and their clients to trade Canadian listed equities. TriAct operates MATCHNow, Canada’s premier broker-neutral dark book.…

American Potash (AMP.C) doubles as bigger neighbours climb aboard
In every area play, there are big players, small players, and ‘me too’s. You can see this in action over in the Patterson Lake uranium plays, where the map is a checkerboard of gerrymander-like shapes and chunks, with some big big swathes and others tiny strips that likely contain no more eight trees and a…

Get out your pencils, kids: Ashanti Gold (AGZ.V) is your debut resource stock
At Equity.Guru, we’ve been talking to younger investors, not-yet-investors, and weed investors for some time now about the value that can be found in resource stocks, but we haven’t really hit you between the eyes with anything much gold-related just yet. The reason? Investors should buy into what they know. If you’re a weed guy,…

Quantum Minerals (QMC.V) is a straight up Moneyball pick
There are several different kinds of resource investor out there and none of them are right. There’s the drill results guy, who goes in before the drills do and plays for a good results call in a month or two. There’s the run-to-production guy, who only goes in once those drill results have been proven.…

How to find a buttload of zinc: First, you miss, then you miss less
Okay, mining newbies, we’re going to play a little resources 101 today, because some interesting stuff is happening out there in the big bad world that may necessitate your learning something outside of the weed market. Master Trump, the first Presidential boy, is making noises like he’s going to slap away on the nuclear football…
