Riley Gold (TSXV: RLYG) is advancing exploration at its Pipeline West/Clipper (PWC) project along Nevada’s Cortez trend, where partner Kinross can earn up to 75% by spending $20 million USD. CEO Todd Hilditch said the project is located in “elephant country,” within a district that hosts “50 million ounces of past production, current reserve,” alongside major deposits such as Cortez and Pipeline.Early drilling has intersected mineralization ranging from “half a gram up to two and a half grams per ton” in the upper plate, with exploration focused on targeting higher-grade zones in the lower plate. Hilditch said the program is designed to confirm that “we're vectoring in on the source,” as drilling continues to step out across a largely underexplored extension of the trend.Kinross is expected to finalize its 2026 drill plan in May, with drilling anticipated in late spring or early summer and results expected in the fall. A Plan of Operations submitted to the Bureau of Land Management could allow for up to 400 drill holes over time.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.To learn more about Riley Gold, visit: https://rileygoldcorp.com/Sponsored content.

Arizona Eagle Mining is advancing a high-grade gold exploration strategy in Arizona, anchored by the historic McCabe mine, as it prepares to list on the TSX Venture Exchange under the ticker AZEM. The company recently completed a reverse takeover with Core Nickel, gaining a public listing and additional critical mineral assets, but its primary focus remains firmly on gold in Arizona.The McCabe project offers a strong starting point, with a historical resource of roughly 880,000 ounces of gold at high grades, alongside significant silver credits. While not NI 43-101 compliant, the deposit benefits from extensive past production, underground development, and historical data compiled from previous operators, giving the company confidence as it moves to validate and expand the resource. Arizona Eagle has launched a 5,000-meter drill program aimed initially at confirming the historical resource, with plans to step out and test extensions along strike and at depth. The company controls a significantly expanded land package of nearly 5,000 acres, including multiple parallel and perpendicular structures that could support a much larger mineralized system. Management sees potential for a multi-million-ounce gold deposit, driven by high grades, district-scale geology, and the opportunity to capture additional ounces using lower cutoff grades in today’s higher gold price environment. Success will hinge on demonstrating that mineralization remains open in all directions and can be meaningfully expanded through drilling.To learn more about Arizona Eagle Mining, visit: www.arizonaeaglemining.com/00:00 - Introduction02:30 - Dual-asset strategy: Arizona gold focus and Manitoba nickel optionality05:45 - Acquisition of the McCabe mine and land consolidation strategy07:30 - Expansion to a 5,000-acre district-scale land package08:30 - Advantages of private land and permitting in Arizona09:15 - Existing infrastructure and underground development at McCabe10:30 - Historical production, feasibility work, and remaining resource potential15:00 - District-scale potential across multiple structures16:00 - Current 5,000-meter drill program and initial objectives18:00 - Strategy: confirm historical resource vs. step-out expansion drilling20:00 - Potential to increase ounces by lowering cutoff grade22:00 - Exploration upside: multi-million-ounce potential framework26:30 - Future financing strategy and potential for additional drill rigs28:00 - Manitoba nickel assets and longer-term development outlook__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Cabral Gold (TSXV: CBR) CEO Alan Carter says the company has achieved a major milestone with the granting of the Licença Prévia (“LP”) for the Full Mining License at Cuiú Cuiú Gold District, in the state of Pará, Brazil. “The trial mining licenses actually have a limit, so we can only mine about half a million tons a year, or about 1,500 tons a day,” he explained. “With the full mining license, there is no limit, so we can expand this to the full design capacity of 3,000 tons a day and way beyond that.”“I think there's a good chance we will expand this once we get it up and running in about six months’ time.”Carter said the company has approximately CAD$40 million in cash, and while they’re spending on the mine construction, they’re continuing to move forward with further exploration as well. “We're building a mine, but we still have our foot on the accelerator in terms of the exploration program,” he said. “We've basically split our workforce in two, so we've got adedicated construction team and a dedicated exploration team, and the exploration team is going full-tilt all the way through the construction, and are producing some excellent results.”Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.To learn more about Cabral Gold, visit: https://cabralgold.com/00:00 - Introduction00:19 - Impact of the Full Mining License04:23 - Advancement of Phase One06:14 - Risk Management of Civil Works07:32 - Critical Path to Commercial Production08:57 - Advancement of Phase Two12:01 - Financial Impacts of Iran Conflict on Development14:03 - Logistical Impacts of Iran Conflict on Development15:31 - Latest Drill Results19:17 - Prioritizing and Targeting Exploration 21:40 - Current Financial Position of the Company__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Panther Metals (LSE: PALM) is advancing the Winston tailings project in Ontario, where historic zinc-focused processing left behind potential value in precious and critical metals. The Winston mine operated from 1988 to 1999 and was once considered one of the highest-grade zinc operations in North America, but gold and silver were largely overlooked when prices were far lower.Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026, CEO Darren Hazelwood said early sampling from the polymetallic tailings has already confirmed encouraging grades. “We ended up with grades of up to 0.82 grams a ton gold, over 13 grams a ton silver,” Hazelwood said. The samples came from the upper layer of a tailings pond that extends more than 18 meters deep in places and also contains gallium and indium.Panther is now carrying out additional work aimed at delivering a maiden mineral resource estimate in the coming months. “The catalyst for us is definitely going to be the MRE on Winston,” Hazelwood said.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.To learn more about Panther Metals, visit: https://panthermetals.com/00:38 - Winston Tailings Project Backstory and Historic Zinc Mine02:33 - Tailings Sampling Results and Winston MRE Plan04:06 - CEO Background and Mining Market Cycles06:27 - Why Panther Listed on the LSE Main Market07:39 - Canada Dual Listing Plans and Obonga Greenstone Belt09:54 - Winston Resource Potential and Extract Technology11:45 - 2026 Catalysts and Winston Work Program12:53 - Path to Production and Existing Infrastructure14:05 - Offtake Interest and Funding with Traxys__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Tocvan Ventures (CSE: TOC) is advancing its Gran Pilar gold-silver project in Sonora, Mexico, with a strategy that combines exploration drilling with a permitted pilot mining operation aimed at demonstrating heap leach production potential. Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026, CEO Brodie Sutherland said the company spent three years consolidating the land package around a discovery first drilled by the Lundin Group in 1996. “We negotiated a deal to expand that property to 22 square kilometers,” Sutherland said, noting the company can now drill across the entire project area.Tocvan has drilled close to 18,000 meters at Gran Pilar over the past five years and plans a minimum 20,000 meters in 2026 while advancing a pilot facility permitted to process an initial 50,000 tons of material. The company completed a 1,500-ton bulk sample in 2023, grading 1.9 g/t gold, and continues metallurgical work ahead of pilot operations planned later this year. “We’re getting over 95% recovery of gold,” Sutherland said, referring to lab-scale tests supporting the heap leach concept.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews. To learn more about Tocvan Ventures, visit: https://tocvan.com/00:19 - Gran Pilar Project Origins and Lundin Discovery03:16 - Why Tocvan Is Advancing a Pilot Mine04:11 - Pilot Mine Permit and 50,000 Ton Processing Plan06:52 - Maiden Resource Goal at Gran Pilar07:34 - Growth Strategy for Small Producers in Sonora09:07 - Lessons from Other Sonora Gold Producers12:27 - Warrants, Share Structure, and Cash Runway14:00 - 2026 Catalysts and Path Toward a PEA__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

U.S. GoldMining Inc. (NASDAQ: USGO) has released a preliminary economic assessment for its Whistler project in Alaska, outlining average production of approximately 250,000 gold equivalent ounces per year over a 15-year mine life, including roughly 345,000 gold equivalent ounces annually in the first three years. Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026, CEO Tim Smith said the study returned a 33% after-tax internal rate of return using base case assumptions of $3,200 gold and $4.50 copper.Whistler contains more than 1 billion pounds of copper and nearly 20 million ounces of silver, with roughly 75% of project value derived from gold. “We are on state of Alaska mining claims, so we're just dealing with a single regulator,” Smith said, citing permitting advantages. Metallurgical testing achieved 89% gold recoveries, and higher-grade mineralization comes to surface, supporting stronger early production. At higher pricing assumptions, Smith said, “We go from 33 to 62%, after tax,” as the company advances toward pre-feasibility and prepares for additional district-scale drilling in 2026.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsors, GoldMining Inc., U.S. Gold Mining Inc., UEC & URC for making this coverage possible.To learn more, visit:https://www.goldmining.com/https://www.usgoldmining.us/https://www.uraniumenergy.com/https://www.uraniumroyalty.com/00:54 - Critical Minerals Tailwinds03:06 - Alaska Permitting Advantage04:12 - District Scale Exploration Upside06:36 - 2026 Drilling Game Plan07:32 - Whistler PEA Key Drivers09:46 - Metal Price Sensitivity10:53 - Access Road and Infrastructure13:40 - Next Six Months Inflection__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Trilogy Metals (NYSE American: TMQ; TSX: TMQ) CEO Tony Giardini joins Kitco Mining’s Investment Trends at PDAC 2026 to discuss renewed momentum around the Arctic copper project in Alaska’s Ambler mining district following recent permitting developments and growing U.S. government support for domestic critical minerals. The Arctic deposit hosts about 50 million tonnes grading roughly 5.6% copper equivalent, a high-grade volcanic massive sulfide system containing copper, zinc, silver, gold, and lead. “Right now it’s about, on a copper equivalent basis, it’s 5.6% copper equivalent,” Giardini said.Giardini said recent policy developments could help unlock the long-delayed Ambler Access Road, which is critical to developing the district. Trilogy expects to begin the mine permitting process within the next couple of months while preparing a 2026 field program targeting 5,000 to 8,000 meters of drilling. The company is also advancing a definitive feasibility study at the asset level and expects to close a $35.6 million U.S. government investment for a 10% stake announced in October 2025. “We’ve got these two great deposits, Arctic and Bornite, which really set us apart from other development projects in the state of Alaska,” he said.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews. To learn more about Trilogy Metals, visit: https://trilogymetals.com/00:29 - Arctic Copper Deposit Overview and 5.6% CuEq Grade02:48 - South32 Joint Venture and Ambler Metals Partnership06:33 - Recent Breakthrough on Ambler Access Road08:30 - 2026 Field Season Plans and Next Project Steps12:16 - $35.6M U.S. Government Investment in Trilogy15:14 - Major Shareholders and Ownership Structure19:09 - Financing Options and Precious Metals Streaming21:11 - 2026 Catalysts and Project Outlook__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Radisson Mining (TSXV: RDS; OTCQB: RMRDF) CEO Matt Manson joins Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026 to discuss the company’s expanding O’Brien gold project in Quebec’s Abitibi region following a March 2, 2026 updated mineral resource estimate. The new estimate outlines about 1.69 million oz. inferred, up 82% from the previous estimate, and 0.63 million oz. indicated, bringing total contained gold to about 2.3 million oz. as Radisson advances its fully funded 140,000-meter step-out drill program. Manson said the system continues to grow, noting, “We think the ultimate target here is something that’s in the three to 4 million ounce range.”The company is still early in the exploration campaign, with only about 25% of the drill program completed as it tests mineralization along the Cadillac-Larder Lake Break in Quebec’s Abitibi belt. Manson also argued that improving gold prices and strong producer balance sheets could drive more investment into the sector. “The junior sector is still seriously undervalued,” he said.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews. To learn more about Radisson Mining, visit: https://radissonmining.com/00:36 - O’Brien Gold Project Overview (Abitibi, Québec)01:16 - March 2026 Resource Update Highlights01:57 - 140,000m Drill Program Roadmap02:15 - PDAC Financing Sentiment for Juniors03:58 - Why Gold Still Has Strong Fundamentals05:25 - Why Junior Gold Stocks Are Undervalued06:55 - M&A Wave Expected in Gold Sector08:53 - What Makes Radisson’s O’Brien Project Stand Out09:34 - Toll Milling Strategy and Infrastructure Advantage11:51 - Permitting Environment in Québec14:48 - Path to Building the O’Brien Gold Mine18:21 - Key Challenges Facing the Mining Sector__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Guanajuato Silver (TSXV: GSVR) is expanding production in Mexico’s historic Guanajuato mining district after completing the $50 million acquisition of the Bolañitos gold-silver mine and 1,600 tpd processing plant from Endeavour Silver, which closed Jan. 15, 2026. Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026 in Toronto, CEO James Anderson said the purchase creates immediate operational synergies with the company’s nearby San Ignacio mine.“Our San Ignacio mine is immediately adjacent to Bolañitos,” Anderson said. “These mines are the same structures, the same vein systems that run through our claims.”The company has already begun processing San Ignacio material at the Bolañitos plant, reducing haulage distances from about 30 km to roughly 2 km and improving operating efficiency as Guanajuato works toward filling the plant’s 1,600 tonne-per-day capacity. Anderson said the company has acquired and restarted five silver and gold mines over the past five years as it continues consolidating the 450-year-old Guanajuato mining district.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews. To learn more about Guanajuato Silver, visit: https://www.gsilver.com/00:22 - Guanajuato Silver Origin Story and District Strategy01:08 - Bolañitos Acquisition and San Ignacio Synergies03:46 - Bolañitos Integration and Operating Cost Impacts05:22 - Consolidating the Guanajuato Mining District06:58 - Fill-the-Mill Strategy and Plant Capacity07:50 - Pinguico Mine Restart Plan08:44 - Silver Price Leverage and Profitability Outlook10:37 - Balance Sheet, Treasury, and Credit Facility11:43 - Stock Performance, Warrants, and Share Overhang13:27 - Security Risks for Mining in Mexico14:29 - 2026 Growth Catalysts and Strategy__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

AbraSilver Resource Corp. (TSX: ABRA; OTCQX: ABBRF) CEO John Miniotis was named Kitco Mining’s Exploration CEO of the Year at PDAC 2026, as the company advances its Diablillos silver-gold project in Argentina toward a final investment decision in 2026. Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026, Miniotis said the project hosts approximately 350 million oz of silver equivalent resources, with measured and indicated resources up 170% since 2020. Shares are up roughly 460% year over year, giving the company a market capitalization of about $2.8 billion.“This will be not only one of the largest primary silver producers in the world,” Miniotis said, citing projected production of more than 13 million oz of silver equivalent annually, including over 7 million oz of silver and about 75,000 oz of gold, at all-in sustaining costs under $13 per oz of silver. He said Argentina’s RIGI framework is “really an absolute game changer,” providing 30-year fiscal stability, a reduced 25% tax rate and removal of export duties. With environmental approvals expected in the coming weeks and a definitive feasibility study targeted for Q2 2026, Miniotis added, “for every 10% move in the gold and silver price, the economics of the project improved by over 30%,” using resource assumptions below $25 per oz silver.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsors, GoldMining Inc., U.S. Gold Mining Inc., UEC & URC for making this coverage possible.To learn more, visit:https://www.goldmining.com/https://www.usgoldmining.us/https://www.uraniumenergy.com/https://www.uraniumroyalty.com/00:44 - Diablillos Project Overview and 350Moz Resource01:54 - Low-Cost Silver Producer and Cost Curve Position03:52 - Feasibility Study Timeline and Phase 6 Drilling05:41 - Silver Price Assumptions and 30% Leverage Sensitivity07:08 - Argentina RIGI Fiscal Stability Framework09:02 - Project Financing and Reduced Cost of Capital12:23 - M&A Strategy: Build, Partner or Sell?15:04 - 2026 Catalysts and Exploration CEO of the Year Award__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Tiernan Gold (TSXV: TNGD) Director Chris Taylor joins Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026 to discuss advancing the Volcan gold project in Chile’s Maricunga district, which hosts 9.8 Moz measured and indicated and total resources of about 11 Moz.“It’s an 11 million ounce deposit, basically,” Taylor said. “The thing is huge.” The large-scale oxide heap leach project has not seen exploration in more than a decade and sits in a district experiencing renewed development activity.Under a $3,600 gold scenario, Taylor estimates the current mine design could generate an after-tax NPV of about $3.6 billion and an IRR of roughly 47%. He noted the most recent PEA used much lower gold price assumptions and “it really basically bears no resemblance to what the project could be under a sort of modern gold price regime.”Tiernan, which is just over 60% owned by Hochschild Mining, raised $58 million Canadian in November to advance the project toward a pre-feasibility study targeted for 2027. Taylor said the project is “it’s probably a top quartile in terms of all in sustaining costs,” while also pointing to exploration upside beyond the existing 11 Moz resource.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.To learn more about Tiernan Gold, visit: https://tiernangold.com00:36 - Chris Taylor Background01:19 - Volcan Project Overview02:21 - PEA Economics Snapshot03:15 - District Momentum03:43 - Water Rights and Solutions05:29 - Financing and PFS Plan06:31 - Key PFS Challenges08:15 - Exploration Upside Potential09:37 - Chile Politics Tailwinds__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Thesis Gold & Silver (TSXV: TAU) is advancing its Lawyers-Ranch project in British Columbia’s Toodoggone mining district toward a feasibility study targeted for 2027. Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026, CEO Ewan Webster said the company recently added “Silver” to its name after a December 2025 pre-feasibility study showed the metal represents a significant part of project economics.The study outlined average production of about 187,000 oz of gold equivalent per year, including roughly 3.5 Moz of silver annually, with silver contributing about 23% of project revenue. Webster said the silver component could provide flexibility in future project financing and highlighted a 20,000 meter drill program planned for 2026, including follow-up work at the Steve discovery. The company also recently closed a C$44 million strategic investment on Feb. 26, 2026, with participation from AngloGold Ashanti and Centerra Gold.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.To learn more about Thesis Gold & Silver, visit: https://thesisgold.com/00:31 - Why Thesis Added Silver to Its Name01:31 - Silver Price Upside and Gold-Silver Ratio03:26 - Feasibility Study Roadmap to 202704:07 - AngloGold Ashanti Strategic Investment06:25 - Budget and C$75M Cash Position08:53 - 2026 Drilling Plans and Data for Feasibility Study10:52 - Permitting Progress and EA Timeline13:19 - Valuation Gap vs Peers and Investor Outreach__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Omai Gold Mines (TSX-V: OMG; OTCQB: OMGGF) is advancing a 10Moz+ gold system in Guyana toward a materially larger development plan, with a new preliminary economic assessment expected within two months. Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026, CEO & Executive Chair Elaine Ellingham outlined how continued drilling since the August 2025 resource update is positioning the project for expanded production and long-term scale. Omai’s shares are up over 800% in the past two years as the company transitions from exploration to development.“Where there's gold, there's more gold,” Ellingham said, referencing wide intercepts of 45 to 60 meters grading three to four grams per tonne that helped drive a roughly 50% resource increase last year. The project now hosts about 6.5Moz in indicated and inferred resources, alongside 3.8Moz historically produced. A new PEA is expected to outline potential production of 250,000 to 300,000 ounces per year over an 18 to 20-year mine life, compared to 142,000 ounces annually in the 2024 study. Ellingham said the open pit alone likely works at an $1,800 gold price, with underground development planned to follow initial production as drilling advances toward feasibility.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsors, GoldMining Inc., U.S. Gold Mining Inc., UEC & URC for making this coverage possible.

David Erfle, Founder and Editor of JuniorMinerJunky.com, joins Kitco Mining’s Digging Deep with Paul Harris at PDAC 2026 in Toronto to break down why gold miners can lag even when bullion is strong, and what this week’s deal flow says about risk appetite in the junior space. “These miners have had such incredible moves, and they’re extremely overbought,” Erfle says, while arguing there is still “a lot of money on the sidelines waiting to get in.”The conversation digs into the biggest PDAC-week transactions, including Hudbay’s all-share deal for Arizona Sonoran announced March 2, 2026, and what it signals for U.S. copper cathode strategy. Erfle also discusses Discovery Silver’s agreement to acquire Glencore’s Kidd Operations in Timmins, and why processing and tailings capacity can be as valuable as ounces in the ground.Other highlights include Franco-Nevada’s pending $52.2 million purchase of a pre-existing NSR royalty covering the core of Banyan Gold’s AurMac project, and what it implies for Yukon validation. The interview also touches on Highlander Silver’s Bear Creek transaction, which closed in late February, and how silver M&A is evolving as the cycle turns.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining YouTube channel to stay up to date on the latest Digging Deep interviews and industry insights.Special thanks to our sponsors, GoldMining Inc., U.S. Gold Mining Inc., UEC & URC for making this coverage possible.To learn more, visit:https://www.goldmining.com/https://www.usgoldmining.us/https://www.uraniumenergy.com/https://www.uraniumroyalty.com/00:18 - PDAC “Curse” as Miners Slide Despite Strong Metals01:40 - Hudbay Acquires Arizona Sonoran in $1.5B Copper Deal03:05 - Cactus-Copper World Synergies and Rival Bid Speculation04:42 - Discovery Silver Buys Glencore’s Kidd Operations in Timmins07:30 - Franco-Nevada Purchases $52.2M NSR on Banyan Gold09:29 - Abra Silver Advances Under Argentina’s RIGI Regime12:37 - Elemental Royalty Expands $150M Credit Facility13:06 - PDAC 2026 Floor Sentiment Signals Bull Market__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Sitka Gold (TSXV: SIG) has outlined more than 5 Moz in total gold resources at its RC Gold project in Yukon’s Tombstone Gold Belt following the maiden 2.25 Moz inferred resource at the Rhosgobel deposit, announced Feb. 25, 2026. The updated resource now totals 1.29 Moz indicated, and 3.83 Moz inferred across the Blackjack, Rhosgobel, and Eiger deposits, highlighting the rapid growth of the district-scale system.Speaking with Kitco Mining at PDAC 2026, CEO Cor Coe said the project hosts three deposits across 11 gold-bearing intrusions, with significant exploration upside remaining. “Five to 10 million ounces is not uncommon,” Coe said, referring to similar intrusion-related deposits such as Fort Knox and Eagle.Rhosgobel has emerged as the fastest-growing discovery. “15,000 meters to end up with a couple million ounces of gold,” Coe said. “Just basically four months of drilling.” Sitka has drilled just under 60,000 meters to define the current resource and plans another 60,000 meters in 2026, potentially advancing RC Gold toward a PEA next year.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.To learn more about Sitka Gold, visit: https://sitkagoldcorp.com/01:00 - RC Gold Discovery and Project Origins02:46 - Intrusion-Related Gold Deposits Explained03:54 - RC Gold Maiden Resource Breakdown06:18 - Tungsten Byproduct Potential at Rhosgobel07:55 - Financing the Discovery and Capital Strategy09:40 - 2026 Drill Plan and 60,000m Program11:36 - Next Resource Update and Potential PEA13:20 - Yukon Mining Policy and First Nations Partnerships14:46 - 2026 Catalysts and Key Milestones__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Neil Adshead, Consultant Analyst at the Commodity Discovery Fund, joins Kitco Mining’s Digging Deep with Paul Harris in person at PDAC 2026 in Toronto as markets react to breaking geopolitical news and a surge in major mining transactions.Following reports of U.S. strikes on Iran over the weekend, Adshead said, “the gold price has already reacted,” noting that 24/7 trading pushed gold above $5,300 per ounce, roughly $100 higher than Friday’s close. He also highlighted record sector profitability, saying, “we've never seen gold miners make the margins that they've been making like they did in Q4 2025.” The discussion explores whether oil could spike, how diesel prices have supported gold miner margins, and how escalating conflict could accelerate demand for critical minerals used in modern defense systems, including tungsten, heavy rare earths, copper and silver.The conversation also examines a wave of streaming and royalty deals ahead of PDAC, including Wheaton’s $4.3B silver stream with BHP, Lundin and BHP’s large-scale copper development in Argentina, and Faraday Copper’s Arizona asset deal with BHP.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining YouTube channel to stay up to date on the latest Digging Deep interviews and industry insights.Special thanks to our sponsors, GoldMining Inc., U.S. Gold Mining Inc., UEC & URC for making this coverage possible.To learn more, visit:https://www.goldmining.com/https://www.usgoldmining.us/https://www.uraniumenergy.com/https://www.uraniumroyalty.com/00:20 - Breaking News: US Strikes Iran01:43 - Oil Shock, Strait of Hormuz Risk and Triple-Digit Oil Debate03:00 - Gold Above $5,300 and Impact on Gold Miner Costs04:37 - War Demand for Critical Minerals and Military Stockpiles07:12 - Surge in Streaming and Royalty Deals Ahead of PDAC08:27 - Wheaton’s Record $4.3B Silver Stream with BHP10:32 - Lundin and BHP Argentina Mega Copper Project PEA13:15 - Faraday Copper Arizona Asset Deal with BHP__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

Nicole Adshead-Bell, Director of Cupel Advisory, joins Kitco Mining’s Digging Deep with Paul Harris at PDAC 2026 in Toronto to break down what a packed conference floor may be signaling for the mining cycle, and why rising commodity prices can blur the line between skill and momentum.Adshead-Bell argues that “we always mistake alpha for beta,” warning that a rising tape can hide weaker execution. She highlights a growing capital allocation debate among gold producers, noting that at least 10 companies now hold $1 billion or more in cash even after increasing shareholder returns. The key question, she says, is whether producers should hold gold instead of dollars, and whether buybacks reflect real conviction that stocks are undervalued based on credible gold price assumptions.The discussion also addresses questions around Barrick’s strategy ahead of a potential North American IPO and tensions within Nevada Gold Mines, underscoring her view that “Market doesn't like uncertainty.” Adshead-Bell further examines evolving royalty and streaming structures, and how cost of capital advantages are reshaping mining finance.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining YouTube channel to stay up to date on the latest Digging Deep interviews and industry insights.Special thanks to our sponsors, GoldMining Inc., U.S. Gold Mining Inc., UEC & URC for making this coverage possible.To learn more, visit:https://www.goldmining.com/https://www.usgoldmining.us/https://www.uraniumenergy.com/https://www.uraniumroyalty.com/00:19 - PDAC 2026 Cycle Signals and Market Sentiment01:01 - Alpha vs Beta in Mining Markets04:42 - Barrick Strategy, Leadership and IPO Questions08:22 - Newmont Messaging and Nevada Gold Mines Uncertainty12:26 - Lundin Gold $670M Silver Stream to Luna Royalties16:31 - Highlander Silver Buys Bear Creek and Corani Asset20:11 - Junior Mining Marketing Spend and Is the Market Toppy?__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

BMO Capital Markets Managing Director and Co-Head of Global Metals and Mining Ilan Bahar says the mining sector is entering 2026 with one of its strongest capital markets backdrops in years. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Bahar said this year’s event drew 650 investors and 300 companies, reflecting what he described as a “very, very healthy” environment for precious metals, financing activity, and elevated M&A discussions. He also pointed to the pace and focus with which the U.S. government is leaning into critical minerals as a notable policy shift.Copper remains central to that narrative as AI data centers, electrification, and energy transition demand themes collide with a constrained supply pipeline. “Everybody loves copper, right?” Bahar said, citing strong fundamentals alongside permitting and development challenges. He added that investor participation is broadening beyond traditional resource funds to include retail, hedge funds, and generalists reallocating toward materials.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

Americas Gold and Silver (NYSE American: USAS; TSX: USA) CEO & Chairman Paul Huet says the company is emerging as the only current U.S. source of antimony as it advances a new Idaho processing joint venture aligned with the U.S. government’s $12 billion Project Vault initiative. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Huet said domestic supply remains structurally short as the U.S. looks to secure critical minerals for defense and industrial use.“We need 50 million pounds of antimony per year,” Huet said, adding that U.S. production must also expand by another 40 million pounds to support allied demand. Through a 51/49 joint venture with U.S. Antimony, the company plans to process concentrate from its Galena complex domestically, targeting roughly 3 million pounds annually as capacity scales. Huet said antimony comes at no incremental mining cost, while nearly $300 million raised over the past year has funded infrastructure upgrades, new mechanized mining methods, and district consolidation, including the Crescent acquisition, as silver output ramps back toward 5 million ounces annually.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

G2 Goldfields (TSX: GTWO) is advancing its 3+ million ounce Oko gold project in Guyana toward permitting following its December 2025 preliminary economic assessment, while continuing to expand the high-grade system and position the company for potential M&A. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, CEO Daniel Noone highlighted the strength of the nine gram per tonne Oko Main Zone and the project’s robust economics. “There’s no risk that it’s not going to be a mine,” he said.Since the August 31 cutoff date for the PEA, drilling has extended mineralization to one kilometer depth and expanded a northwest trend now defined over roughly five kilometers, including intercepts of 60 meters at 2.1 grams per tonne. With environmental permitting in Guyana potentially achievable within roughly 15 months, Noone said G2 is advancing three parallel streams in 2026: feasibility and permitting, continued resource growth, and M&A readiness. The company currently trades at approximately 0.3 to 0.4 times NAV, with Noone suggesting valuation could move toward 0.7 to 0.8 times NAV as permitting advances. G2 is also targeting an April 2026 spinout of 87,000 acres into G3 Goldfields with $15 million in cash.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews. Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

Discovery Silver (TSX: DSV; OTCQX: DSVSF) CEO Tony Makuch has been named Kitco Mining’s CEO of the Year after leading a rapid turnaround of the Porcupine complex in Ontario and repositioning the former non-core asset into a cash-generating growth platform.Speaking at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Makuch highlighted 2025 production of 180,000 ounces of gold, net profit of $107 million, and free cash flow of $172 million in the company’s first full year operating the asset.

Fortuna Mining (NYSE: FSM; TSX: FVI) CFO Luis D. Ganoza joins Kitco Mining’s Investment Trends with Paul Harris to discuss record 2025 free cash flow and the company’s strategy to return to 500,000 oz per year as it builds a two-region platform across Latin America and West Africa.Fortuna generated $330 million in free cash flow in 2025, produced about 371,000 oz of gold equivalent, and ended the year with roughly $380 million in cash. Ganoza said full-year free cash flow represented “between 35 and 38%” of sales, with more than 60% EBITDA conversion into free cash flow.

Wesdome Gold Mines (TSX: WDO) President and CEO Anthea Bath says the company is entering 2026 as a debt-free, high-margin gold producer after delivering record 2025 production of 185,000 ounces and ending the year with $356 million in cash and zero debt. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 2026 BMO Metals Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Bath said Wesdome generated about $250 million in free cash flow in 2025 and expects to generate roughly $350 million in 2026 at budget assumptions below $4,000 gold. “Wes generated about $250 million in free cash last year,” she said.With mill utilization currently running between 30% and 60% at Eagle River and Kiena, Wesdome is advancing a “fill the mill” strategy aimed at increasing throughput, extending mine life, and lowering unit costs through fixed-cost leverage without significant new mill capital. The company completed about 200 kilometers of drilling in 2025 and plans about 270 kilometers in 2026 across 250 exploration targets, with updated resource disclosures expected in June and technical reports expected in the second half of 2026. Bath said Wesdome is targeting mid-tier scale of 400,000 to 500,000 ounces annually while maintaining disciplined capital allocation and evaluating high-quality acquisition opportunities.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews. Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

Marimaca Copper (TSX: MARI) CEO Hayden Locke says the company is advancing its Marimaca oxide project in Chile toward a potential final investment decision by the end of 2026, positioning it as a near-term copper producer during what he describes as an infrastructure-led demand cycle. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Locke said the company continues to anchor its planning assumptions well below current spot prices. “We’re running everything, all of our decision making at 4.50,” he said, referring to a $4.50 per pound long-term copper price despite copper trading near $6.The Marimaca oxide deposit is expected to produce roughly 50,000 tonnes of copper cathode annually, with initial capital of about $600 million. Following a C$409 million financing, the company holds more than $160 million in cash to advance engineering, secure debt financing, and expand drilling at the nearby Pampa Medina discovery, which Locke said has potential to become a tier-one opportunity. Marimaca also plans to use recycled seawater sourced from local thermoelectric facilities, while targeting credit-approved debt term sheets by the third quarter and expanding its drill budget to $30–50 million over the next 12–18 months.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

Allied Gold (TSX: AAUC; OTCQX: AAUCF) Chairman & CEO Peter Marrone says the company’s C$5.5 billion all-cash sale to Zijin Mining secures what he views as full and fair value, less than two years after Allied’s September 2023 IPO at an approximate C$970 million valuation. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Marrone said the board set a clear pricing threshold during negotiations. “It has to be in the mid forties,” he said, referring to the per-share level required to support a transaction.Allied rose more than 300% last year on the Toronto Stock Exchange, with the offer coming at a premium to an all-time high. Marrone pointed to recent gold price volatility, noting realized prices in the $3,400–$3,800 range before spot briefly moved above $5,000 per ounce. “There’s a lot of air in between,” he said, describing the risk of sharp swings and the rationale for locking in a cash floor. Allied’s portfolio is anchored by the Sadiola mine in Mali, with more than 10 million ounces of resources, and the Kurmuk project in Ethiopia, expected to produce close to 300,000 ounces annually at roughly $950 per ounce AISC.

Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Hall said Equinox reduced net debt from more than $1.4 billion at the end of June 2025 to less than $100 million at the end of January 2026, alongside launching an inaugural dividend and applying for an NCIB. “I think it’s more creating a boring business,” he said, describing a strategy centered on quarter-on-quarter delivery and rebuilding credibility with investors.Equinox produced 923,000 oz in 2025, up 48% year over year, and Hall highlighted operational momentum at Greenstone and Valentine, where throughput reached 110% of nameplate month to date in February after winter-related challenges in January.

Coeur Mining (NYSE: CDE) President & CEO Mitch Krebs says the company’s acquisition of New Gold marks a transformational step, accelerating Coeur into a larger, more resilient North American silver, gold, and copper producer. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Krebs said the deal builds on last year’s SilverCrest acquisition and moves Coeur into a new peer group with roughly $25 billion in market capitalization, more than $3 billion in EBITDA, and over $2 billion in projected free cash flow on a pro forma basis.The combined company is expected to produce approximately 20 million ounces of silver, 900,000 ounces of gold, and 100 million pounds of copper annually, while lowering overall costs by close to 20%. Krebs said the transaction strengthens the balance sheet, supports potential investment-grade metrics, and opens the door to broader institutional ownership, including eligibility for major U.S. equity indexes. “It’s a massive leap forward,” he said, describing the acquisition as positioning Coeur to perform through commodity cycles while maintaining its silver-dominant profile and expanding capital return options post-closing.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

Vicuña Corp CEO Ron Hochstein says the newly combined Jose Maria and Filo del Sol deposits position the Vicuña district as one of the world’s largest and most advanced undeveloped copper projects, with a staged path toward a final investment decision by the end of 2026. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Hochstein said the recently released preliminary economic assessment outlines a $7.1 billion first-stage development centered on the fully permitted Jose Maria deposit, with total staged capital rising to roughly $11 billion. If built, the project would represent the largest private investment in Argentina’s history.The district hosts combined resources of 38 million tonnes of copper, 81 million ounces of gold, and 1.4 billion ounces of silver, with a projected mine life exceeding 70 years. Hochstein said the immediate priorities are advancing engineering to a Class 2 capital estimate, finalizing provincial agreements in San Juan, and progressing Argentina’s RIGI investment framework as financing options are evaluated. “See this project through now to successful first copper,” he said, describing his mandate as delivering construction while optimizing future phases across the broader Vicuña district.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

Vale Base Metals CEO Shaun Usmar says the company is reshaping its nickel and copper portfolio as it advances a consortium that will invest more than $200 million in the Thompson Nickel Complex in Manitoba while accelerating high-return copper growth in Brazil. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Usmar said the Thompson transaction brings in new capital and partners while Vale Base Metals retains a 19% stake and remains a key customer, positioning the asset for renewed focus after more than 60 years of operation.The company is targeting a doubling of copper production from roughly 350,000 tonnes per year to 700,000 tonnes through brownfield expansions, delivering returns above 25%, with some projects exceeding 50% internal rates of return following capital reductions and design changes. Usmar said operational discipline is driving the turnaround, with EBITDA rising from about $1.3 billion in 2024 to $2.3 billion in 2025 and nearly $1 billion of cash performance improvement, much of it from management actions rather than price. “We exceeded guidance for the first time in the history of this business,” he said, adding that the company is positioning to be IPO-ready by mid- to late-2026 while driving its nickel operations into the lower half of the cost curve.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

New Gold (NYSE American: NGD; TSX: NGD) CEO Patrick Godin says disciplined execution and reinvestment transformed the company ahead of its approved acquisition by Coeur Mining. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Godin outlined how Rainy River’s open pit was once expected to end in 2027 and the underground in 2030. Through sustained exploration investment, mine life has now been extended to 2035, materially reshaping the company’s long-term outlook.Godin said the transaction expands New Gold from a two-asset producer into a seven-asset, North America-focused portfolio with meaningful silver exposure alongside gold and copper. Shareholders approved the deal with a 99% vote. “We planned the mine, and we mined the plan,” he said, describing a shift toward tighter operational discipline and accountability. The combination adds scale, reduces asset concentration risk, and positions the company for greater stability across commodity cycles.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

First Majestic Silver (NYSE: AG; TSX: AG) CEO Keith Neumeyer says silver’s move above $100 per ounce confirms tightening supply-demand fundamentals, even with a correction into the $80–$85 range. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference, Neumeyer said large institutions still “don’t believe the market,” arguing silver equities remain well below prior-cycle valuations despite stronger metal prices.First Majestic generated $250 million in free cash flow in Q4, holds approximately $1 billion in cash, and reported roughly $1.2 billion in revenue last year. The company produced 33 million ounces on an equivalent basis in 2025 and is targeting 50 million ounces longer term through exploration and internal expansions, with about $50 million allocated to exploration and roughly $80 million to development this year. “I think we’ll see 5,000 gold,” he said, adding that silver would go back to “triple digits fairly shortly.” Neumeyer also expects consolidation to accelerate, predicting the mining sector could shrink significantly over the next five years.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.Special thanks to our sponsor, First Majestic Silver.

Collective Mining (TSX: CNL; NYSE American: CNL) Executive Chair Ari Sussman joins Kitco Mining’s Investment Trends with Paul Harris to discuss new high-grade drilling from the Ramp Zone at the Guayabales Project in Colombia and the path toward a maiden resource in the first half of 2027.On February 24, 2026, the company reported 54.55 metres grading 7.04 g/t gold and 16 g/t silver from hole APC150-D1, with assay results pending for another 370.25 metres. Sussman said it is “the first time we’ve drilled a ramp from the south in a northeastern direction,” a shift he believes is confirming continuity along the breccia margins. Collective has confirmed 315 metres of high-grade mineralization along the outer southeast margin, with roughly 1,200 metres of additional breccia circumference still to be tested. Visual logging from the first western breccia hole intersected at least 20 metres of Ramp-style mineralization, with assays expected in late March 2026.Sussman said the company is “hoping to drill somewhere between five to 7 million ounces in our maiden resource” while advancing what he called its largest drill year ever at up to 100,000 metres in 2026. He also addresses drilling at San Antonio, tungsten prices up north of 500% over the past 12 months, investor focus on Colombia’s upcoming presidential election, and why he believes major producers face long-term growth challenges that could drive future M&A.Don’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.02:06 - San Antonio Drilling and Porphyry Target Expansion04:25 - Ramp Zone Expansion and Breccia Margin Potential06:01 - 5 to 7 Million Ounce Maiden Resource Target08:14 - Metallurgy Results and Expected Recoveries09:27 - Gold Bull Market and Valuation Discussion11:33 - Colombia Election Risk and Investor Concerns12:53 - Building the Executive Team for Development15:50 - 100,000 Meter Drill Plan and 2026 Catalysts__________________________________________________________________Kitco Mining is dedicated to reporting on the mining industry.

LunR Royalties (TSXV: LUNR) has announced a $670 million life-of-mine silver stream on Lundin Gold’s Fruta del Norte mine in Ecuador, a deal that delivers immediate precious metals cash flow to the recently listed royalty company. Speaking with Kitco Mining at the 35th BMO Global Metals, Mining & Critical Minerals Conference in Florida, CEO Adam Lundin described the structure as “a very elegant way to get cash flow into Lunar,” with approximately 50 million LunR shares issued to Lundin Gold for distribution to its shareholders.The stream provides exposure to more than 500,000 ounces of annual silver production, closely aligned with Lundin Gold’s roughly 500,000 ounces of gold output. The transaction increases LunR’s free float, introduces Newmont as a major shareholder with board representation, and positions the company within the underrepresented $1 billion to $10 billion royalty gap.

B2Gold (NYSE American: BTG; TSX: BTO) founder Clive Johnson will retire as President and CEO at the company’s annual meeting on June 4, ending a two-decade run that built the miner into a 1 million ounce per year gold producer.

Rick Rule, President and CEO of Rule Investment Media, joins Kitco Mining’s Digging Deep with Paul Harris to break down what he sees as a structural capital crunch in copper and a turning point in mine finance. Rule says “the copper industry requires at least $250 billion in capital expenditure over the next 10 years to maintain current levels of output,” arguing that traditional funding sources are falling short.He explains why Wheaton Precious Metals’ $4.3 billion silver stream with BHP, announced February 17, 2026, may signal a new era of mega-deals, and how royalty and streaming companies could further lower their cost of capital through long-dated bonds backed by existing streams. On Lundin and BHP’s Vicuña project, following the integrated PEA released February 17, 2026, Rule says if the “most exciting copper discovery on the planet” struggles to meet hurdle rates, it may point to copper’s true incentive price.Rule also contrasts what he calls “the best permitting environment that we've seen in the last 30 years” at the US federal level with the latest legal setback for Alaska’s Pebble project, including a Department of Justice brief filed February 16, 2026.In this interview, Rick Rule also discusses: • Streaming arbitrage and copper’s capital gap • Copper IRRs and long-term price signals • US permitting signals from Arizona to PebbleDon’t forget to subscribe to the Kitco Mining & Kitco News YouTube channels to stay up to date on the latest industry news and interviews.00:51 - Rick Rule Copper Bootcamp: Investing in Copper in 202603:45 - Wheaton–BHP $4.3B Silver Stream Deal Explained09:24 - Franco & Wheaton 20–30 Year Bonds: Lowering Cost of Capital11:16 - Lundin & BHP Vicuña PEA: 400kt Copper, $7.1B Stage 1 Capex14:08 - Copper Price Floor?
