Dog Days Of Summer
The junior exploration business in Canada follows a fairly predictable pattern: deploy drills as early in spring as the local climate allows, drill through the summer, begin reporting drill results in mid to late August and continue through until November.
Julia Lane
Awful news from the Yukon. ATAC VP-Exploration, Julia Lane, died in plane crash yesterday.
Sprott on Silver
“Silver, in particular, has the potential to outperform gold significantly. For example, in the wake of the global financial crisis, the gold-to-silver ratio plummeted from 80:1 bottoming at 32:1, with the silver price topping out at ~$50/ounce. Recently the ratio hit a record 93:1, while the price is sitting at around $16/ounce. Yesterday, the ratio stood at 89:1 as shown in Figure 2.
White Gold Q&A
On July 11, 2019 White Gold (.V: WGO) put out a press release indicating that it had identified new district scale high-grade gold trends on its properties in the Yukon. We had some follow-up questions and White Gold sent us over the answers.
The Gold in Goldplay Exploration
Just off the phone with Marcio Fonseca, CEO of Goldplay Exploration (V.GPLY). I am writing up our conversation now but the key takeaway is that today’s news release is the beginning of a significant news flow with drill results and trenching results on no less than eight target areas coming over the next few months.
Golden Predator moving towards restarting Brewery Creek Gold Mine
Over at North of 60 Mining News there is an excellent article on Golden Predator’s (V.GPY) efforts to bring the Brewery Creek mine back into operation in the Yukon.
Victoria Gold Video: Explosions
I am just finishing writing up my interview with John McConnell, CEO of Victoria Gold (VIT). As an aside in this interview, I complimented John on the excellent update videos he has been posting as the Eagle Mine goes forward. I kidded him about the fact that “the explosions” were the best part.
Carbon Engineering: Scrubbing CO2 from the atmosphere
Whether you think CO2 driven climate change is a “climate emergency” or a complete crock, the fact is that there is a lot of money looking for practical solutions to the problem of CO2. A lot of that money has gone into things like solar and wind power which, proponents say, will reduce emissions over time by generating electricity without burning fossil fuels. But what about the CO2 which has already been emitted? While climate scientists have been steadily revising temperature sensitivity estimates downward, there is a terrific political momentum behind the idea that CO2 and temperature are linked and that, despite a lack of scientific evidence, that link causes everything from sea level rise to rain “events”.
