Tim Shearcroft, CEO and Co-Founder of BP Silver Corp. (TSXV: BPAG), joins me for a review of some bonanza-grade final assay results from the remaining eight drill holes of its eleven-hole Phase I drill program at the Cosuño Silver Project in Bolivia. We discuss the follow up geophysics survey and goals of the Phase II exploration program. Additionally, the Company is working on finalizing the title at their Titiri Project, located in a major under-explored silver belt with Tier 1 discovery potential. Phase I Highlights: Drilling intersected multiple zones of high-grade silver mineralization at the Pocañita Chica target: Diamond Drill Hole # CO-0008 returned 5m @ 600.4 g/t silver, including 1m @ 1655 g/t silver; Diamond Drill Hole # CO-0009 returned 1m @ 526 g/t silver and 6m @ 147 g/t silver. The Program achieved its primary objective of confirming silver mineralization within the lithocap beneath surface geochemical anomalies, materially de-risking Cosuño. Silver mineralization was intersected in all four targets tested across an approximately 2.7 km NE-SW corridor, confirming the presence of a robust silver and polymetallic system which remains open for expansion along strike and at depth. The Program successfully tested key zones along a 2.7 km structural trend, returning significant silver intercepts at the 4 targets tested to date (Figures 1 to 3): Pocañita Chica – Broad mineralized envelopes with high-grade silver intervals hosted in hydrothermal breccias. Pocalleta – Structurally controlled vein mineralization confirming depth potential. Jalsuri – High-grade silver intercepts with gold 2.7 km northeast of Pocañita Chica, indicating district-scale continuity. Benhur – Additional silver mineralization along the same structural corridor. Additionally, their team is working with the government to finalize obtaining the title to begin exploration on their Titiri Project. Titiri was staked over a large land concession containing outcropping mineralization historically explored by ASARCO. This Project contains a 2.5km-long silver-lead-zinc zone, with excellent historical trench results, that was never drilled. Titiri is a very High Priority structural setting at the intersection of several major crustal-scale faults, along which multiple deposits occur. There is a MOU in place with local communities, and they’d like to get on the ground for exploration in mid-2026.

John Miniotis, President and CEO of AbraSilver Resource Corp (TSX: ABRA) (OTCQX: ABBRF), joins me to review the March 2nd news that announced its flagship Diablillos silver-gold project has been formally approved for inclusion under Argentina's Large Investment Incentive Regime ("RIGI"). We also discussed the upcoming catalysts of the updated Mineral Resource estimate (“MRE”), Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”), Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) permit, and ongoing Phase 6 Exploration Program for the balance of 2026. The RIGI approval was confirmed by Argentina's Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo, through his official X account on Friday February 27th. The official government resolution announcing RIGI approval for the Diablillos project is expected later in March. RIGI is a federal investment framework designed to accelerate large-scale development projects in Argentina by providing long-term fiscal stability along with competitive tax, customs, and foreign-exchange benefits. Both Salta and Catamarca Provinces, where Diablillos is located, have opted into the regime. This RIGI approval substantially increases the project's economics, with around $1Billion in savings at current spot prices, and this provides increased certainty as Diablillos moves into its next phase of development and eventual construction. John takes us through the busy year of catalysts the company has on tap, starting with all the drilling data from Phase V being compiled into an updated Resource Estimate that will come out in parallel with their Definitive Feasibility Study, which is due out in the 2nd quarter of 2026. Additionally, the Company is awaiting their EIA permit, which will be the trigger for a construction decision later in the year. John highlighted that ongoing detailed engineering work, procurement planning, and upgrades to existing infrastructure are also advancing in parallel to ensure construction readiness. Following receipt of the EIA, the Company intends to initiate early works in a phased and disciplined manner, while continuing to advance project financing to fund the mine build.

[Recorded February 28th, 2026]: Roger Rosmus, Founder, CEO, & Director of Goliath Resources Ltd (TSX-V: GOT) (OTCQX: GOTRF) (FSE: B4IF), joins me for a special video update to visually highlight the key takeaways from the 2025 exploration season. Consolidated results now include all the multi-element results, from 110 holes drilled on the Surebet Discovery at the Golddigger Property; located in the Golden Triangle, B.C. We also discuss the strong financial position of the treasury, which has budgeted another large expansion drill program in 2026. On February 24, 2026, the Company announced the multi-element results on the final 56 drill holes, accounting for silver, copper, lead, and zinc values within these holes. Goliath reported an average 19.6% increase in overall grade values from these previously announced gold-only assays, with numerous high-grade intercepts including 24.16 g/t AuEq over 7.00 meters. Across all 110 drill holes completed during the 2025 season, this polymetallic contribution is an average increase of 16.5% in overall grade values from the gold-only assays. 92,000 meters of drilling was completed in the four prior drilling seasons (2021-2024) on the Surebet Discovery resulted in the modeling of a vast stacked vein system. The 2025 drilling season alone, with more than 64,000 meters of drilling, has expanded the modelled stacked vein system that remains open; over 156,000 meters total have been drilled to date. Of the holes drilled during the 2025 campaign, 83 out of 110 holes (or 76%) contained visible gold to the naked eye (VG-NE). 100% of the drill holes completed to date, have all intersected gold mineralization clearly demonstrating the remarkable continuity, grades, and widths in 5 Main Gold-Rich Zones comprising 46 mineralized lodes that remain open for expansion. Roger outlines the Company’s rationale that it makes far more sense to keep expanding the mineralization with aggressive exploration programs, versus trying to pin down the MRE at this stage; when the Project is still open in most directions. This demonstrates the continuity of this high-grade gold system and the remaining untapped expansion potential of the Surebet discovery for 2026 and beyond.. The fully funded 2026 drill program will be mainly focused on expanding their 5 Main Mineralized Zones at the Surebet Discovery. Data compilation and interpretation is underway which will be used to vector in on the indicated Motherlode causative intrusive source to this extensive high grade gold system with widespread VG-NE. On February 28, 2026, Goliath Resources announced that it has applied to the TSX Venture Exchange (the “TSX.V”) to extend the term of an aggregate of 2,590,673 common share purchase warrants of the Company, with each Warrant being exercisable to acquire one common share of the Company at a price of $2.50 per Warrant Share. In addition to future conversion of warrants from Rob McEwen, the company’s equity holdings of McEwen Inc (MUX) shares, which have essentially gone up about 3X since acquiring them, also provide the option for more capital inflows into the company treasury to fund more exploration.

Jordan Rusche, Founder of Mining Stock Monkey, joins me for an in-depth and nuanced discussion on the recent volatility in oil prices, gold and silver prices, and his approach to valuing precious metals mining stocks and royalty companies; along with which companies he is actively trading in his portfolio. We start out reviewing how the geopolitical tensions with the US and Iran have spiked the oil price over the past week, but that he is valuing companies on their fundamental alpha, regardless of the short-term noise in the market from news. We dissected the value proposition synergies from the news announced February 2nd about Devon Energy (NYSE: DVN) and Coterra Energy (NYSE: CTRA) announcing a merger in an all-stock transaction. The business combination will create a leading large-cap shale operator with a high-quality asset base anchored by a premier position in the economic core of the Delaware Basin. Next we shifted over to some of the valuations in the gold producers in his portfolio. Jordan breaks down why he likes larger producers with growth on tap, highlighting the fundamental growth factors for Endeavour Mining plc (TSX:EDV) (OTCQX:EDVMF) (LSE:EDV) and strong full-year 2025 production of 1,209,000 ounces of gold at an AISC of ~1,435/oz; with a H2-2025 dividend of $200m, and >$1bn shareholder returns program. We also followed up on our discussion from earlier this month where he was spot on about some of the operational risks he had cautioned investors about with regards to B2Gold Corp. (TSX: BTO) (NYSE AMERICAN: BTG), that came out of Q4 earnings, and more importantly, FY guidance for 2026. We spend the balance of the discussing diving into why he sees the growth and value proposition as compelling in a couple royalty companies: First, Jordan outlines the growth on tap for Royal Gold, Inc. (NASDAQ: RGLD)over the next couple of years, especially when it comes to some of the long-life assets that came into the company through the acquisition of Sandstorm Gold last year that aren’t properly reflected yet due to limitations in using a DCF valuation. Second, Jordan highlights that positioning in Altius Minerals Corporation (TSX: ALS) (OTCQX: ATUSF) allows him to have access to Potash, Lithium, Copper, and Renewable Energy sectors; all through the diversification and reduced risk of a solid royalty company.

In this company update, I am joined by Patrick Highsmith, Chairman and Co-Founder of FireFox Gold (TSXV: FFOX | OTCQB: FFOXF | FWB: FIY1). Patrick joins the show to discuss the company’s latest high-grade drill results from the Mustajärvi Gold Project in Finland's Central Lapland Greenstone Belt. Discussion Highlights: The Second Best Intercept Ever: Patrick breaks down the massive result from hole 25MJ012, which returned 7.6 metres at 32.25 g/t gold, including a ultra-high-grade sub-interval of 188.5 g/t gold. Narrowing the Gap: We explore the strategic importance of the "Gap Zone" between the East and Northeast Zones, where recent drilling has successfully connected mineralized structures over a strike length exceeding 1.1 kilometres. Geological Consistency: A look into why Mustajärvi continues to deliver high-grade gold with significant visible gold (VG) and how the project’s stacked lode system remains open for expansion. 2026 Drill Program Outlook: An update on the 10,000-metre program, with 15 holes currently pending assays and plans to test the intriguing Triangle Target as spring exploration continues.

In this KE Report Daily Editorial, we are joined by Craig Hemke, the founder and editor of TF Metals Report. As we transition into March, the precious metals market is reacting to significant geopolitical volatility following recent U.S. actions in Iran and the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. Craig provides a deep dive into why gold and silver continue to show resilience despite extreme price swings and high-frequency trading dominance. Key Discussion Points: Geopolitical Volatility and Oil: How the escalating conflict involving Iran is creating a "whiplash" effect in crude oil prices and its subsequent ripple effect on the global economy and interest rates. The Power of Monthly Charts: Why long-term investors should prioritize monthly and quarterly closes over intraday "noise" caused by computer-driven algorithmic trading on the COMEX. Low Open Interest in Metals: A look at the surprisingly low participation rates in gold and silver, which Craig argues contradicts "bubble" narratives and sets the stage for further gains. Mining Equity Earnings: Analyzing the massive free cash flow being generated by major producers like Newmont and Agnico Eagle, and what this means for future M&A activity and share buybacks. Physical Scarcity vs. Paper Markets: Addressing the rumors regarding COMEX defaults and the reality of physical silver demand in major hubs like China and India.

Glenn Jessome, President & CEO of Silver Tiger Metals (TSX.V:SLVR) (OTCQX:SLVTF), joins me for a candid and nuanced conversation on why the Company elected to take the recent financing instead of a larger debt package; while also still leveraging the debt term sheets in place for the combined surface and underground development of the El Tigre Silver-Gold Project in Sonora, Mexico. We start off reviewing the reality that negotiating a debt deal is much more complex, with more restrictions and debt covenants, than most people realize. The company has narrowed the 3 debt term providers down to just 2 now, and are they are still pursuing debt for the larger overall needs. Glenn unpacks the sequence of events and his thought process on why they opted to go with the financing instead, and outlines the decision making process for those investors that were surprised, confused, or that had submitted questions about this transaction. On Feb. 18, 2026 Silver Tiger Metals announced it had closed its previously announced bought deal offering of common shares of the Company with a syndicate of underwriters. An aggregate of 49,146,400 Shares at a price of C$1.17 per Share for gross proceeds to the Company of C$57,501,288 were sold, which includes the exercise in full of the Underwriters' over-allotment option. The Company intends to use the proceeds of the Offering to fund exploration and development expenditures at the Company's El Tigre Project in Mexico, as well as for working capital and general corporate purposes. We also dive into all the construction activities already underway on the ground at El Tigre, and what criteria are being decided on in the background by the board and management team to be able to announce the official construction decision in March.

In this episode of The KE Report, I sit down with Dana Lyons, Fund Manager and Editor of The Lyons Share Pro, to discuss a significant regime shift currently unfolding in the financial markets. After nearly two decades of dominance by US large-cap growth and tech stocks, the tide appears to be turning toward value sectors and international equities. Dana provides a technical deep dive into why this rotation may just be in its infancy and identifies which global markets are finally breaking out of multi-decade stagnation. We also explore the recent volatility in the precious metals sector and how to strategically position for the next leg of the bull market in miners.

[Recorded February 20th, 2026] Michael Rowley, President & CEO, of Stillwater Critical Minerals (TSX.V: PGE – OTCQB: PGEZF), joins me to review the key catalysts on tap for 2026 and beyond. In the near-term, the focus will be on releasing drill assay results from the 2025 exploration program, the evolving understanding of the broader geological model, and that once all results are processed there will be an update to the NI 43-101-compliant Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) for the Company’s 100%-owned Stillwater West critical minerals project in Montana, USA. We review the advantages polymetallic nature of the Stillwater West Project, which hosts nickel, copper, cobalt, chromium, platinum, palladium, rhodium, ruthenium, iridium, gold, and osmium – a unique mix of battery, alloy, and platinum group metals essential to clean energy, defense, and technology supply chains. We contrast the benefits with the complexity involved with communicating to the marketplace and policy makers with regards precisely which metals are driving the value forwards. Mike explains that this new geological model and understanding of the Stillwater West Project through the lens of the South African Bushveld Complex as a parallel is so crucial to unlocking the value proposition of the Project and for future exploration targeting. It is also quite constructive have Dr. Danie Grobler, Vice President of Exploration, Albie Brits, Senior Geologist, provide different layers of input and collaboration with Tim Kuhl and the Mine Technical Services (MTS) team on the updated Stillwater resource estimate. Their extensive experience in Platreef-type geology and resource estimation is expected to provide significant value to the Project. Highlights and upcoming catalysts: The 2025 drill campaign is now complete, totaling 3,471m in eight holes, with all assays pending near-term release (the first 2 holes results were leased in news out today a few days after the recording of this interview) The updated MRE will incorporate 14 drill holes totaling 5,781 meters (“m”) from the 2023 and 2025 programs, plus select historic holes not included in the current estimate. The updated Mineral Resource Estimate is expected in the latter part of H1 2026, and it will mark the next step in advancing Stillwater West as a potential large-scale source of ten minerals listed as critical in the U.S. The update will build upon the January 25, 2023, Inferred Mineral Resource and results will support further technical studies and economic assessments. The work is being led by Mr. Timothy Kuhl (MTS) and Dr. Danie Grobler (Stillwater) who together previously worked with the late Dr. Harry Parker on the resource estimation and technical reports for Ivanhoe Mines’ Platreef Mine. We go on to discuss with Mike the challenges and opportunities in defining the large-scale polymetallic and critical mineral resources at Stillwater West; and why it has the attention of large major producers, like their strategic partner Glencore, along with attention from the US and Montana government. We discuss how the nickel, copper, cobalt, and chrome tie into the growing industry demands for battery metals, energy metals, and defense metals. Additionally, with platinum, palladium, rhodium, and gold all demonstrating strong recent market performance, Stillwater West offers significant leverage to these precious metals.

In this special daily editorial, we are joined by Rick Rule, Founder of Rule Investment Media and Battle Bank. Rick provides a candid look at his recent portfolio maneuvers, explaining the logic behind selling physical silver to rotate into high-quality equities. We dive deep into the valuation disconnects currently plaguing the resource sector and why "boring" large-cap energy producers might be the smartest play for the next five years. Discussion Highlights: Silver Portfolio Rotation: Rick discusses selling 80% of his physical silver and 25% of his junior mining positions following recent parabolic moves to eliminate downside risk while maintaining upside through select silver stocks. The Silver/Stock Valuation Gap: Why silver equities are currently priced for $45 silver while the spot price sits significantly higher, creating a massive opportunity for a re-rating in high-quality miners. Energy Sector Outlook: An analysis of the under-investment in sustaining capital within the oil and gas industry and why Rick is favoring Canadian mid-tiers and majors like Exxon Mobil (XOM) and Schlumberger (SLB). The Pitfalls of Mining Metrics: A breakdown of why the "ounces in the ground" metric is often misleading and the importance of focusing on All-In Sustaining Costs (AISC) and Return on Capital Employed (ROIC).

Two veteran newsletter editors map out where the next big moves, and best entry points, could emerge across metals and energy in 2026. Gold and silver may be digesting a sharp correction, but both guests argue the bigger bull-market backdrop is intact, setting up a very “stock-picker” tape in mining. Meanwhile, energy remains out of favor, yet Josef Schachter lays out a tightening supply/demand case (and a clear playbook for scaling in before the next macro-driven run). Segment 1 & 2 - Brien Lundin, editor of the Gold Newsletter and host of the New Orleans Investment Conference, shares his insights on the current state of the precious metals market. He discusses the potential for continued sideways trading in gold and silver before the next rally, while highlighting opportunities in exploration and development-stage companies like K2 Gold, Aris Minerals, and Banyan Gold. Brien also emphasizes the importance of individual company stories and the excitement of potential new discoveries across various global jurisdictions.

Nick Hodge, Co-Owner of Digest Publishing and editor of Foundational Profits and Underground Alpha, joins me for our monthly longer-format discussion on different macroeconomic factors, continuing to fuel the commodities supercycle in silver, gold, copper, uranium, and opportunities in their related resource stocks. We start off discussing the extreme volatility seen in the price charts for silver, gold, platinum, copper and other metals since our last conversation in early January. We reviewed that prices climaxed into the uber-bullish sentiment witnessed at the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference in late January; right before correcting down hard in the days and week that followed. After several more weeks of choppy price action, things are settling out; but Nick reiterates that investors should be embracing this volatility. He points out that we are still in a structural bull market in the precious metals for a number of macroeconomic factors from interest rates, currencies, sovereign debt, ongoing central bank buying, the rise of BRICS nations, and even crypto stablecoin companies like Tether buying huge amounts of gold to back their Tether Gold (XAUt) product. Tether is also directly investing into royalty companies like Elemental Royalty Corporation (TSXV: ELE) (NASDAQ: ELE), Gold Royalty Corp (NYSE American: GROY), and Versamet Royalties Corporation (TSX: VMET). Nick flagged that Streamex Corp. (NASDAQ: STEX), a leader in institutional-grade tokenization and real-world asset infrastructure, recently announced that it has acquired a 9.9% equity interest in Empress Royalty Corp. (TSXV:EMPR) (OTCQX:EMPYF). We also discussed some of the larger transactions lately executed by the larger senior royalty companies like Wheaton Precious Metals (TSX: WPM) (NYSE: WPM), Franco-Nevada Corporation (TSX: FNV)(NYSE: FNV), and Triple Flag Precious Metals (TSX: TFPM, NYSE: TFPM). While there have been quite a few new entrants into the royalty space over the last couple years, Nick believes that the demand is there for more royalty vehicles, and that it isn’t overcrowded yet, and we’ll likely keep seeing more new companies launched as this sector continues to expand. He pointed out the some of the quality prospect generator companies, like Headwater Gold Inc. (CSE: HWG) (OTCQX: HWAUF) and Almadex Minerals Ltd. (TSX-V: DEX), have also accumulated royalties within their asset portfolios that provide future optionality to sell or spin out into new companies. Next, we shifted over to the merger and acquisition transactions in the precious metals and critical minerals space, noting some of the unique M&A news of late, and outlining why the overall volume of deal flow is less than many expected considering the need to replace minded reserves, and the compelling value propositions of the development projects. Nick outlines that this lack of takeovers of quality projects, while developers remain undervalued at current metals prices gives investors a unique opportunity to capitalize on these market inefficiencies. He revisits prior comments made about Kutcho Copper Corp. (TSXV: KC) (OTCQX: KCCFF) , and how since then the stock has gone up over a 100% after restating their economics in light of the underlying metals environment. Wrapping up we shift over to the strong fundamental factors for nuclear power and compelling supply/demand imbalances for more uranium. He discusses the permitting milestone achieved with Denison Mines Corp. (TSX: DML) (NYSE American: DNN), the imminent spin-out of Verdera Energy from enCore Energy Corp. (NASDAQ: EU) (TSXV: EU), and that North Shore Uranium Ltd. (TSX-V:NSU) and Skyharbour Resources Ltd. (TSX.V: SYH) (OTCQX: SYHBF) are 2 earlier-stage uranium explorers he’s been adding to in his portfolio.

Joaquín provides a deep dive into the company’s upsized 25,000-meter drill program, the technical milestones ahead for 2026, and the recent discovery of a new gold-copper system. Key Discussion Points: Expanded 25,000m Drill Program: Originally planned at 15,000 meters, the program has been significantly upsized to 25,000 meters through April 2026, with a total goal of 45,000 meters by the end of 2026. New Exploration Frontiers: The company has more than doubled its exploration area from 25 square kilometers to 60 square kilometers, incorporating extensive geophysics, surface work, and environmental baseline studies. Gold-Copper Discovery at Carmen: Results from the January 21st release highlighted a significant new discovery 400–500 meters from the main resource, featuring 44 meters of gold and copper mineralization, suggesting a distinct and rich mineral system. Path to Economics: Argenta is initiating advanced metallurgical test work and technical studies to build upon the existing 50-million-ounce pure silver resource, moving the project closer to a formal Mineral Resource Update and Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA). Strong Financial Position: Following a successful $23 million bought deal financing in January, Argenta is fully funded with over $40 million CAD to execute its aggressive 2026 exploration and development mandates.

Alex Langer, President and CEO of Sierra Madre Gold And Silver (TSXV: SM) (OTCQX: SMDRF), joins me to provide an equipment purchase and installation update on the progress of the planned two-stage expansion at its La Guitarra silver-gold mine complex. We also get a brief operations update on the 3 producing mines: La Guitarra, Coloso, and Nazareno mines in Mexico. Beyond the production growth, we also focus on the substantial exploration programs planned for the 2nd half of this year, both at the La Guitarra complex and at the property coming into the company from the ongoing acquisition of the Del Toro Silver Mine in the Chalchihuites District in Mexico from First Majestic Silver Corp. The first stage of the expansion at the La Guitarra plant will increase production rates from the current 500 tonnes per day ("tpd") to 750 tpd to 800 tpd of processing capacity; with a goal to get that completed by June or July of this summer. Processing plant and tailings handling upgrades and equipment purchases for the planned production expansion are underway. Once the first stage of the expansion is completed, the planned second phase would increase processing capacity to a range of 1,200 tpd to 1,500 tpd by Q3 2027. The current crushing circuit consists of a primary jaw crusher, a two-tier vibrating screen plant and a 3-foot short head cone crusher. The installation of a new 3-foot standard head crusher is expected to expand crushing capacity to 750 tpd to 800 tpd. Options are now being evaluated for the construction of a second crushed ore storage bin for additional backup storage capacity. Earthworks for the foundations of the 750 tpd to 800 tpd thickener are nearly complete. This thickener will allow a portion of the tailings to be deposited as paste fill in old stopes, thus extending the life of the existing tailings impoundment. It will also allow for the construction of a filter circuit to produce dry stackable tailings. A used 11x12.5 ball mill has been purchased and is in the process of being refurbished. The mill's capacity is a nominal 600 tpd at a -3/8 inch feed size and, when used in combination with one of the two existing +200 tpd mills, is expected to expand processing capacity to the 750 tpd to 800 tpd objective. The Company has acquired two new scoop trams, one used scoop and is in the process of rebuilding two existing scoops. These purchases and rebuilds will allow the Company to dedicate one 3-cubic metre scoop to the newly reopened Nazareno mine and allow for production improvements in both the Guitarra and Coloso mines. The Company has purchased four haulage trucks and a second front end loader. The balance of the discussion is on the exploration campaign for the second half of this year across both the La Guitarra property and Del Toro property. Alex points out that having their own assay lab should allow the company to quickly react to incoming assays at La Guitarra, going from 20 holes, to 40 holes, and then eventually 80 holes. At Del Toro, the envisioned plan is to drill about 30,000 meters, which is an even larger program than at La Guitarra. When pressed about what metals price environment the company would need to see to turn on the mines at Del Toro quicker, in tandem with the exploration, Alex mentioned that as was the case with La Guitarra, First Majestic has done an exceptional job in keeping permits current and maintaining the mine and plant in an operations-ready state. As a result, if a decision was made, after the acquisition is completed in late April, then it is possible that a mine restart could begin in around a year’s time.

Scott Emerson, President and CEO of Kingsmen Resources Ltd. (TSXV: KNG) (OTCQB: KNGRF) joins me for a visual overview of the company exploration initiatives at their 2 silver and gold projects, Las Coloradas and Almoloya, located in the Parral District, in Chihuahua, Mexico. >> To view the VIDEO version of this interview click below: https://youtu.be/GFGX6VW7thI We start off with Scott sharing some of the background on how this company came together over the last few years, where he consolidated 15 mining concessions around the prior-producing Las Coloradas Mine to form their flagship Las Coloradas Project, and ensure that their land package has district-scale size potential. After a few years of work consolidating the land, sampling and mapping, and reviewing historical data from Asarco, the Company drilled its maiden 3,000-meter reconnaissance drill program in 2025; with 12 holes that encountered broad intercepts and contained pockets of high-grade silver and gold mineralization for follow-up drilling. There are also a few compelling regional targets that will be drilled this year. The company has raised capital to go after a 15,000 meter follow-up program at both their Las Coloradas Project and initial drilling at the Almoloya Gold/Silver Project. Las Coloradas High Grade Silver Project Step-out and deeper drilling planned on the high-grade Soledad and Soledad II vein systems Approximately 700 metres of the Soledad structure remains to be tested Significant discovery potential in the largely undrilled (1 hole) 1.7 km Soledad II structure New priority drill targets emerging at Saddle and Silvia/La Plata zones Multiple large-scale, largely untested targets highlight district-scale discovery potential at Las Coloradas Almoloya Gold/Silver Project Initial diamond drilling planned on the gold-rich Juliettas structures District-scale CRD and oxide potential identified at Cigarrero Mine área Both projects located in prolific mining districts with geological similarities to major silver-gold deposits in Mexico Wrapping up Scott highlights the financial health of the company, the closing of the upsized bought deal financing in January, continued support from key stakeholders, the pattern of raising money at higher and higher valuations, the ability of in-the-money warrants to potentially bring in more funds. We also discuss the value in the 1% royalty on GoGold’s Los Ricos North, which if purchased back would bring in more non-dilutive capital. Scott reiterated that the future value creation will be determined with the drill bit, and the Company is cashed up well to execute on this exploration program, and will remain drilling for the balance of this year.
