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.

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…
