Interview with Eric Zaunscherb, CEO & Chairman of GR Silver Mining (TSX-V: GRSL)Recording date: 12th September 2023GR Silver Mining is advancing its district-scale Plomosas silver project in Sinaloa, Mexico. Despite weak market conditions, CEO Eric Zaunscherb believes the company must press on rather than shut down. GR Silver has delivered on promises, expanding resources and exploration potential. However, the share price languishes far below projected value.To unlock value, Zaunscherb aims to consolidate through mergers or other deals with producers needing growth. This should attract investor interest versus remaining a standalone exploration play. Discussions are underway regarding synergies with cash-flowing companies or strategic investments.Rather than ego, the goal is maximizing returns for shareholders. Timing is critical to execute consolidation plans. The market favors scaled entities in the current environment.Plomosas offers low technical risk with permitted mining and toll milling options. Historic production occurred from 1986-2001. Third parties have expressed interest in offtake or funding to restart mining.In Mexico, recent mining legislation changes have created uncertainty. Detailed regulations are still pending. This has constrained capital for juniors, forcing layoffs. GR Silver wants pragmatic legislation balancing environmental needs and jobs.Despite silver prices, macro factors have hindered raising sufficient capital to advance drill programs. GR Silver’s share count expanded significantly through dilution. A rollback could occur alongside a major catalyst like a merger or acquisition.Technical successes have expanded resources and exploration potential considerably. However, the stock trades at a large discount to peers on an enterprise value per ounce basis. The discount partly reflects past sampling issues and capital needs.Plomosas offers exploration upside targeting intrusive-related mineralization and extensive concessions. The project advantages should factor into strategic discussions, along with leverage from current undervaluation.While market conditions are difficult, GR Silver remains focused on completing a transformative consolidation transaction to unlock the potential of its Mexican silver district assets.

Interview with Dan Dickson, CEO of Endeavour Silver (TSX: EDR, NYSE: EXK)Recording date: 12th September 2023Endeavour Silver is a precious metals mining company focused on silver and gold production in Mexico. The company currently operates two higher-cost mines, Guanacevi and Bolañitos, but is advancing its transformational Terronera project.Construction commenced on Terronera in Q2 2023, with first production expected by Q4 2024. The new mine is forecast to double Endeavour's production while cutting all-in-sustaining-costs per ounce by half. This should improve the company's cost profile and cash flow generation.Endeavour has not needed to tap equity markets recently, funding Terronera construction from its balance sheet and debt facility. A $120 million debt commitment was secured earlier this year, providing capital to advance the project. The debt load is expected to peak by late 2024.An ATM facility provides additional financing flexibility and insurance if further funding is required. Endeavour's strong cash position and operating cash flow have allowed it to self-fund growth initiatives.Beyond Terronera, Endeavour acquired the Pitarrilla project last year from SSR Mining. Pitarrilla hosts over 600 million ounces of silver resources, representing further production growth potential. Underground exploration drilling is slated for 2023 to upgrade resources.The Parral project offers another near-term development opportunity, with historic underground workings and infrastructure in place. However, the large scale Pitarrilla is the key growth focus given its potential to be a company-maker asset.Endeavour will continue assessing distressed assets and creative M&A opportunities. The company takes a selective, methodical approach to acquisitions in order to systematically enhance its project pipeline over time.In Mexico, some government rhetoric against mining has emerged ahead of 2024 elections. However, no major tax or regulatory changes have been enacted under the current administration. Endeavour has strong legal and government relations expertise to navigate Mexico's mining industry.With improving operations, a strengthened balance sheet and clear growth runway from Terronera and Pitarrilla, Endeavour Silver appears well positioned to drive the next phase of production and cost profile gains.

The company went public in 2020 but adapted its business model due to market conditions, forging strategic partnerships to advance projects while still retaining upside.Ridgeline’s flagship project is the 100% owned Selena project, which has potential to be a globally significant carbonate replacement deposit (CRD) discovery. CRDs are genetically related to porphyry copper systems and can contain substantial amounts of silver, lead, zinc and copper.Selena shares similarities with successful projects like the Taylor deposit in Arizona. Ridgeline has already drilled intercepts up to 6 meters of 1,200 g/t silver equivalent at Selena and believes the project could deliver transformational value.To advance other projects while minimizing dilution, Ridgeline executed deals with Nevada Gold Mines on its Swift and Carlin East gold projects, worth $40 million in spending for 70% ownership. Importantly, Ridgeline retains 25% fully carried interest through to first gold production on any new discoveries.This innovative structure provides upside exposure without excessive spending requirements if the projects are advanced. The deals allow Ridgeline to focus its technical team and capital on progressing Selena.Located in Eureka County, Nevada, Selena covers 39 square km of highly prospective ground. Ridgeline plans to systematically de-risk Selena and achieve initial resource estimates to attract interest from mid-tier and major base metals producers.Ridgeline’s experienced management team leverages extensive local relationships to source overlooked projects with major discovery potential, like the newly acquired Big Blue copper-silver project.With a lean team, capital from supportive institutions and strategic investors, and district-scale targets in top mining jurisdictions, Ridgeline offers substantial discovery potential and leveraged exposure to new high-value deposits.

Interview with Jason Kosec, President & CEO of Integra Resources (TSX:ITN)Recording date: 12th September 2023Integra Resources is a precious metals exploration and development company focused on the Great Basin region of the western United States. The company is advancing three flagship oxide heap leach projects including the past-producing DeLamar Project in southwest Idaho and the Wildcat and Mountain View Projects in western Nevada. Integra also has a portfolio of high-potential early-stage exploration projects across Idaho, Nevada and Arizona. The company's long-term vision is to become a prominent mid-tier gold and silver producer in the United States.Jason Kosec, CEO of Integra Resources, discusses the company's gold and silver projects in Idaho and Nevada. Integra is focused on near-surface, heap-leachable ounces in the Great Basin region. With over 1.5 million indicated ounces and 310 million in projected value from just 5 acres drilled so far, Integra's DeLamar Project in Idaho is starting to demonstrate significant potential scale and margins.The recent Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for DeLamar delivered robust results and blew out market expectations, despite the current difficult market conditions. The project benefits from a high indicated resource base (80%), strong recoveries (87-90%), and low strip ratio (0.2:1). Next steps are an updated resource by year-end, submission of the mine plan in Dec 2023, and a feasibility study in late 2024. Major exploration is also planned in 2023 to continue growing the resource.At the War Eagle Project in Nevada, drilling has been limited to just 5 acres but has already outlined 1.5 million ounces indicated. The project shows low strip ratios similar to DeLamar, meaning it is a simple, low-cost earth moving and crushing operation. Findings so far point to strong conversion rates, metallurgy and geotechnics. Integra is focused on further derisking the project next year while aggressively expanding the resource. Every 10% increase could yield $46 million in after-tax free cash flow, highlighting the growth potential.Given the favorable metrics and comparisons to producing mines like Marigold and Gold Bar, Integra's Nevada assets stand out as some of the highest grade in the region on a strip-adjusted basis. The company is working to highlight this value proposition to the market. Integra also plans to incorporate major stockpiles from past mining at DeLamar into the feasibility study, adding substantial ounces.Overall, Integra is focused on efficient capital allocation to exploration, resource growth, and permitting/feasibility advancement at DeLamar to surface value and advance towards a potential construction decision.

Interview with Terry Lynch, CEO of Power Nickel (TSX-V: PNPN)Recording date: 12th September 2023 Power Nickel is a Canadian junior exploration company focused on developing its flagship Nisk nickel project in Quebec into Canada's first carbon-neutral nickel mine.Terry Lynch, CEO of Power Nickel (TSXV:PNPN), discusses the company's high-grade NISK nickel-copper-cobalt project in Quebec. An updated NI 43-101 resource estimate is expected by end of October, which will likely outline 8-10 million tons at 1.5% nickel equivalent. This initial resource from just one mineralized zone should be sufficient to support a commercial mining operation.NISK has an existing historical resource of 3.1 million tons at 1.6% nickel. Power Nickel has now drilled over 177,000 meters and hit nickel grades above 1% in the majority of holes. Highlights include a recent 300 meter step-out hole that intersected 25 meters of massive and semi-massive sulfides. The deposit remains open and Power Nickel is confident in rapidly expanding the resource along identified mineralized trends.The goal is to demonstrate sufficient scale at NISK to achieve a sizable revaluation of the company. Comparable nickel projects are currently valued around $400M for ~15M tons of resources. At 8-10M tons, NISK could potentially support a $150-200M valuation. Power Nickel recently secured a $7.5M investment from materials processor CVMR to complete a feasibility study and refine nickel end-products.In addition to expanding NISK, Power Nickel plans to test several other target areas identified nearby. The potential exists to delineate over 30M tons through systematic exploration of the ultramafic intrusion. Early drilling has also revealed promising platinum group metal intercepts that could provide added value.With high grades, excellent infrastructure and supportive stakeholders, NISK can be an economically robust mine even at lower nickel prices. The project is well positioned to capitalize on the pending supply shortages in the battery metals sector. Advancing the resource estimate and feasibility study over the next 6-9 months will be key catalysts for Power Nickel.

Interview with Claudia Tornquist, President & CEO of Kodiak Copper (TSX-V:KDK)Recording date: 12th September 2023Kodiak Copper is a Canadian mineral exploration company focused on copper porphyry projects in Canada and the United States. The company's flagship asset is the MPD copper-gold porphyry project in south-central British Columbia, which shows potential to host a large-scale deposit. MPD has high-grade mineralization within a wide mineralized envelope and several other untested exploration targets.Claudia Tornquist, CEO of Kodiak Copper (TSXV:KDK), discusses the company's large-scale exploration program underway at the MPD copper-gold project in southern British Columbia. Unlike previous years focused solely on the high-grade Gate Zone discovery, Kodiak is now systematically testing multiple targets across the 14 km2 property. The goal is to delineate the next big discovery and build significant scale through a methodical exploration approach.Kodiak has an extensive database of over 50,000 meters of historic, shallow drilling at MPD. The Gate Zone was discovered by drilling deeper below this historic drilling, uncovering high-grade copper-gold mineralization missed near surface. Several large geophysical and geochemical targets have now been identified across the property, presenting an opportunity to replicate this exploration model.Up to 25,000 meters of drilling is planned for 2023, targeting at least 5 zones. Early results at the West Zone returned long intercepts of 500+ meters grading 0.2-0.4% copper equivalent, including high-grade zones. New copper-gold mineralization was discovered at depth, and importantly, mineralized breccia zones were intersected – indicating proximity to a copper-gold source. Assay results will steadily flow through year-end and into early 2024.While additional high-grade discoveries are the ultimate goal, Kodiak is also keen to demonstrate scale potential. Lower grade intercepts of 0.2-0.4% copper equivalent help build critical mass. The project is situated in an established mining region, where comparables like Copper Mountain mine lower grades of ~0.23% copper at large scale. Infrastructure, access and skilled local workforce provide low operating costs that support development of MPD's sizeable resource base.Significant drill results and increasing project scale will aim to attract interest from major mining companies. An intermediate resource target is approximately 10 billion pounds of copper, which requires additional discoveries and resource growth beyond the Gate Zone. Kodiak maintains a strong partnership with Teck Resources, its largest shareholder with 19.9% interest. Teck is supportive of Kodiak's copper-focused exploration strategy in BC.In summary, Kodiak Copper is advancing a systematic, multi-target exploration program to build on its initial high-grade discovery at MPD and outline the project’s meaningful scale potential. Assay results from the extensive 2023 drill campaign will act as key catalysts in the year ahead.

Interview with Louis-Pierre Gignac, President & CEO of G Mining Ventures (TSX-V: GMIN)Recording date: 12th September 2023Louis-Pierre Gignac, CEO of G Mining Ventures (TSXV:GMIN), discusses development progress at the company's Tocantinzinho gold project in Brazil. One year after making a construction decision, the project is now approximately 50% complete and on track to commence production in H2 2023 – an exceptionally fast timeline.Tocantinzinho benefits from a significant amount of permitting and technical work completed by prior owners. G Mining has optimized the project layout and flowsheet through a detailed feasibility study to maximize economics and expedite development. US$458M in project financing was secured in a competitive process, providing a clear path to production.Major early works programs were initiated to mitigate schedule risk, including ordering long-lead items like the SAG mill. Locking in the power contract and major equipment also insulates against cost inflation. Project capex remains in-line with feasibility study estimates. Some input cost inflation has occurred, but will be partially offset by higher gold prices.An experienced build team has rapidly advanced detailed engineering to around 90% complete. 50% of total direct hours have been worked on site lost-time-injury free. Major procurements are complete, earthworks are progressing on schedule, and critical infrastructure is taking shape.At feasibility parameters, Tocantinzinho is expected to produce 175,000 ounces per year over a 10.5 year mine life, at low all-in sustaining costs of $700-750/oz. There is exploration potential to expand resources along strike and at depth. The project has robust economics at current gold prices, and G Mining’s execution capabilities significantly reduce development risks.With construction well underway, G Mining offers leverage to a re-rating as Tocantinzinho transitions to production. Comparable gold developers typically trade at higher EV/Resource multiples than G Mining. As project risks are removed, G Mining expects its valuation gap to close.The company aims to utilize its specialized development skills to acquire and construct additional gold projects. Americas-based assets with technical issues or expansion potential are well-suited. G Mining has proven it can effectively navigate new jurisdictions like Brazil. The goal is to have a second project in feasibility or construction by 2025 to build a multi-asset, mid-tier producer.In summary, G Mining Ventures is rapidly building the Tocantinzinho gold mine on time and budget to achieve near-term production. The company offers a compelling value proposition as it systematically executes on its strategy and develops into a profitable gold miner.

Interview with Brandon Munro, MD & CEO, and Olga Skorlyakova, VP of Market Strategy for Bannerman Energy (ASX: BMN)Our previous interview: https://youtu.be/w8NJxlyVtvsRecording date: 6th September 2023Bannerman Energy is an Australian uranium development company focused on its large-scale Etango project in Namibia, the world's third-largest uranium producer. Bannerman CEO Brandon Munro and new VP of Market Strategy Olga Skorlyakova discuss how uranium term contracts get signed from a project development perspective.Utilities are showing renewed interest in new uranium supply amid recent disruptions from top producers Kazakhstan and Nigeria. Namibia is a tried and trusted 45-year supplier. Bannerman is now at the forefront with Etango, having completed feasibility studies, pilot plant testing, and advanced engineering design. The project is ready to supply utilities when needed.Term contracting is a long process in nuclear, sometimes taking years from initial discussions to signed deals. Bannerman has time on its side and doesn't need to rush. The company has always taken a patient, conservative approach to developing Etango since 2006. Bannerman is willing to wait for the right market conditions and pricing.The mining licence application was lodged a year ago and approval timing is not prescriptive under Namibian law. The Ministry is currently overwhelmed with applications but Bannerman is comfortable with this timeline given the positive uranium market momentum. The mining licence is the last major hurdle before Bannerman can make an FID.Initial contract volumes likely won't be massive as Bannerman must first establish itself as a reliable new producer. But major utilities can offer scale, e.g. 500,000 lb contracts, to form the portfolio base. Bannerman aims to pick a starting price range that doesn't lock away all upside potential but meets shareholder requirements.The current environment means Bannerman has leverage in negotiating contracts. Utilities need geographic, supplier and pricing diversification. Bannerman offers supply security from a stable jurisdiction like Namibia. Buyers are willing to pay a premium for this.Bannerman has assembled an experienced uranium team, both corporate and on-the-ground in Namibia. This reduces a key execution risk as skilled labour is scarce. The company is leveraged to higher uranium prices given Etango's large size and expansion potential from 3.5M lb to over 7M lb per year. The after-tax NPV more than doubles from $209M to $435M by adding just $15/lb to the assumed price. Sentiment suggests spot won't stop at $65/lb, making Bannerman an attractive uranium investment.
