At a glance

What the record holds today. Every card names where it came from — a management representation is not an established fact, and the page never blurs the two.

Grade
86.9 m at 4 g per ton gold at Dragonfly target area; 375 g per ton rock samples; 142 g sample; 30+ g samples; 42-m long channel sample running 4 g
Management-stated Anthony Margarit Apr 2026
What happens next
18 drill pads permitted; 18 additional pads with access; drill pads designed to be 43-101 compliant; drill approaching site; drilling to start shortly

The main open question
Steve Barton notes he is not a fan of California gold mines; the company has not yet hit the sulfide interface, which remains untested at K2's property and locally.

What outside voices pick up on

2 independent voices — people who do not speak for the company — across 2 mentions.

1 neutral 1 cautious
  • Unknown speaker “Mentioned as a current client relationship in the junior mining space.”
  • Steve Barton “He says he does not own it and is not a fan of California gold mines.”

Bull · Bear · Watch next

Weighed from the statements on this page — management's pitch and the outside view. Not financial advice, and not our opinion of the company.

▲ Bull case

Management says oxide mineralization at surface with 96–98% recovery in early tests, a 500-m-wide corridor of stacked structures dipping steeply west, and 86.9 m at 4 g/t gold at Dragonfly suggest a robust primary target.

What it rests on

Management says oxide mineralization at surface with 96–98% recovery in early tests, a 500-m-wide corridor of stacked structures dipping steeply west, and 86.9 m at 4 g/t gold at Dragonfly suggest a robust primary target. With record of decision in hand and 18 permitted drill pads on the way, drilling should test the core thesis—whether sulfide extends at depth—imminently.

▼ Bear case

Steve Barton notes he is not a fan of California gold mines; the company has not yet hit the sulfide interface, which remains untested at K2's property and locally.

What it rests on
Evidence: 1 moment from 1 interview
Read the full case

Steve Barton notes he is not a fan of California gold mines; the company has not yet hit the sulfide interface, which remains untested at K2's property and locally. Early-stage shake tests and surface samples do not yet prove economic grade or recovery at depth, and California permitting remains incomplete despite the record of decision.

◆ Watch next

Drill results from the 18 permitted pads will be the proof point.

What it rests on
Evidence: 2 moments from 1 interview
Read the full case

Drill results from the 18 permitted pads will be the proof point. Watch for intersections at or near the 220–250 m average depth, especially whether mineralization persists into fresh rock and whether sulfide is encountered. Completion of the EIS and any updated resource estimates will follow.

Each moment links to the exact point in the source recording. The cases are drawn from the transcripts, weighed as written — they are not a rating, a target or a recommendation.

Project 10 statements

The deposit 4

Key takeaway. Management describes the deposit at K2 Gold as structurally controlled, sediment-hosted mineralization on steeply dipping structures oriented at about 70° to the west.

Read the full summary

The company reports that mineralization starts at surface within a 500-m wide corridor of multiple parallel stacked structures 30 to 70 m wide and 10 to 15 m apart, and that the material is all oxide. The CEO noted high-grade results including an 86.9 m interval at 4 g per ton gold at the Dragonfly target area, a 42-m long channel sample running 4 g, and surface rock samples grading up to 375 g per ton gold. Management also points to exploration upside along a 5-km long gold trend and a separate 5-km long copper trend, plus a new target area 1.5 km north of Dragonfly that has never been drilled.

exploration upside
500-m wide corridor of mineralization; multiple parallel stack structures 30 to 70 m wide and 10 to 15 20 m apart; mineralization starts at surface; all oxide material
“It's a 500-m wide corridor, all oxide material, mineralization starts at surface, it's a great target”

exploration upside
5-km long gold trend (East Side gold trend); 5-km long copper trend; silver lead zinc values plus gold at Morning Star target area adjacent to historic Cerro Gordo silver mine; new target area 1.5 km north of Dragonfly never drilled; Stega target area nev
“we're focused on this 5-km long gold trend on the Mojave project right now, but we've got significant uh significant copper trend, a 5-km long copper trend”

How to read this page

What is here

Statements made by company representatives in the interviews listed above — each one carrying the words that made it, the date, and the recording. Nothing is added from any other source: if it was not said on a recording, it is not on this page. The one exception lives in the Claims & Checks record, which cites a metal price from our own feed so a stated cost can be set against it — and labels it as ours wherever it appears.

What is not verified

All of it. Resource figures, economics, timelines and promotional framing are management's own representations, checked against no filing and no technical report. Transcripts are automatic; we repair a clearly mis-heard word but never a number, a date, a unit or a speaker's hedge — “about 8.6 million ounces” keeps its “about”.

How to use it

Treat it as a map of what has been said, not as a source of fact. Where a figure matters to you, open the recording and read the company's filings. Nothing here is financial advice, a recommendation, or an offer to buy or sell any security — these are interested parties discussing their own company.
