After years of effort, Midway Gold poured its 1st Gold bar at the Pan mine on April 2, 2015. They’d finally reached the finish line! “Pouring of Gold at the Pan mine marks the beginning of a new chapter at Midway,” CEO Bill Zisch boldly stated.  “While we have had many hurdles to overcome during development and construction, our team has persevered and maintained a...

Another Lesson In Money Management! I was feeling a lot smarter back in June-July-August, that’s for sure! Since then I’ve been feeling like less of a market genius. Reflecting back on it, my emotional barometer was flashing a “sell” sign, being that I felt so smart, but I didn’t listen.  I should’ve lightened up on GoGold (GGD, TSX), for instance, but I was too...

Sprott’s Thoughts: “Oh My God, How Good Is That!” We were saying the next news release from Wallbridge Mining (WM, TSX) could be a real barn burner, and it was! 27 g/t Gold over 38.4 m!

It’s that time of year again.  Explorers, developers, and smallish producers were in Beaver Creek delivering presentations to investors and analysts at the Precious Metals Summit last week.  Now, some of the same people and companies, along with many new names, have gathered in Denver for The Gold Forum. This is the busy season in Colorado when it comes to story...

More than likely that means high-grade assays when results are released next week.   In their August 26 update, highlighting how they added 3 new Nickel-Copper-PGE targets, Balmoral (BAR, TSX) said mineralized zones (shear zone related, vein-hosted quartz/sulphide mineralization) were observed in all 4 holes drilled at Area 52 over widths varying from 1 to tens of...

(It’s subtle, but it’s there.) Below you’ll rediscover 3 top notch PGs specializing in the Yukon, Nevada and Quebec.  Every 1 of these project generators has a track record of making discoveries. They’re all actively working and drilling. They have strong share structures. And they’re even well-financed! I’d be comfortable buying all 3 at recent prices (for me...
