A lot of exploration is about looking for pointers, for clues, as to where a deposit might be. For Canadian Orebodies, a train of boulders, a number of which had high-grade gold mineralization pointed in a particular direction.
The Bayhorse Property, located near Huntington in south eastern Oregon, was the location of the largest silver deposit ever found in the state. It was mined in the early twenties and then again in 1984 when the price of silver dropped below $5 per ounce.
Did you know that Argentina is the largest generator of electricity from nuclear energy in South America? Or that it imports all of the 500,000 pounds a year of uranium that its three nuclear reactors use? Or that Argentina has one additional nuclear reactor under construction and two in the planning stages?
To get a handle on MGX Minerals (C.XMG) and its frenetic CEO Jared Lazerson you have to understand Lazerson’s underlying vision of energy technology in transition. For Lazerson the renewables revolution, the need for efficient energy storage solutions and the broad range of “battery” metals all coalesce into a set of opportunities.
For Ascendant Resources (T.ASND) , 2017 was an extremely successful turnaround year. The Company’s El Mochito zinc, lead and silver mine located in Honduras has been in continuous operations for 70 years but, over the course of recent years, suffered from underinvestment and some neglect from its previous operator. With its recently released 2017 full year production results and 2018 guidance, it is now clear Ascendant is well positioned to build on the strong operational successes of 2017 with tremendous long-term opportunity remaining at El Mochito yet to be fully harnessed.
Cartier Resources’s (V.ECR) CEO Philippe Cloutier has worked in the exploration business for over twenty-five years. He understands the potential of prospective properties and he knows that the very best place to find gold is where gold has already been mined. He also knows that to develop and execute a drilling program is expensive. Which is why, when we began our interview, Cloutier said, “Cartier is cash rich, we have 16 million dollars in the bank.”
It is one thing to find a gold deposit, it is another to find an economic gold deposit.
Propose that I offered you an option on billions of pounds (maybe more) of copper with a delivery date six to ten years from now. What would that be worth?
Twenty five years ago Argentina liberalized its business and mining rules. At the time the mineral rich nation had barely been explored using modern techniques. A fact which Joe Grosso was very much aware of. He set out to explore in Argentina and, over the years, made three major discoveries and was named Argentina’s ‘Mining Man of The Year’ in 2005. Joe Grosso is the founding force behind Argentina Lithium (V.LIT).
