How the stated figures have moved

The same figure, as management put it on the earliest and the latest recording we hold. A difference may be a genuine update, a different measure of the same thing (total against indicated), or a mis-heard number — both quotes are here, and both recordings are one click away.

Capital needed ● Broadly unchanged 2 statements on record
03 Dec 2025
$50 to $60 million to complete a prefeasibility on Fenolon
“With Fenolan, we probably need $50 to $60 million to complete a prefeasibility.”
13 May 2026
about 50 to 60 million dollars to take Fenelon to pre-feasibility
“We've got an estimate to take it to a pre-feasibility of the cost, and it's about it's about 50 to 60 million dollars.”
Resource size ? New figure The earlier statement put no number on this 3 statements on record

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 the economics are compelling: $1.4 billion NAV and 34% IRR at $3,000 gold with 2.4-year payback on a 15-year, 107,000 oz/year underground mine.

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

Management says the economics are compelling: $1.4 billion NAV and 34% IRR at $3,000 gold with 2.4-year payback on a 15-year, 107,000 oz/year underground mine. The deposit has room to expand — only half the current resource is mined in the plan — and Fenelon's nearby sister deposit at Martiniere shows similar high-grade shear zones and could add two or more million ounces. CEO Penny and VP Exploration have 40+ years of combined experience and a track record building mines into production at Kinross and New Gold.

▼ Bear case

The study is still early and capital-hungry: $50–60 million to reach pre-feasibility, with the full path to production taking 6+ years.

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

The study is still early and capital-hungry: $50–60 million to reach pre-feasibility, with the full path to production taking 6+ years. Key assumptions remain untested — dry-stack tailings and paste backfill are being validated only now through metallurgical work, and clay in tailings soil is flagged as a potential problem. Large inferred resource component (half of 3.5 million oz) and infill drilling still needed mean significant technical and geological uncertainty ahead of any financing decision.

◆ Watch next

Management targets financing and advancing Fenelon to the next step next year.

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

Management targets financing and advancing Fenelon to the next step next year. Martiniere is positioned as a near-term catalyst with drill-result news flow, and a two-phase drilling program is planned for early next year alongside bench-scale metallurgy testing with larger core. Completion of the updated Fenelon geologic model and structural definition of the Bug Lake fault corridor will be key milestones to monitor.

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 19 statements

The deposit 11

Key takeaway. Management reports that the Martiniere deposit contains about 750,000 ounces (roughly half indicated, half inferred) and the Fenelon deposit holds about 3.5 million ounces (also about half indicated, half inferred), as of May 2026.

Read the full summary

The company describes Martiniere as an underground mine with a 15-year mine life, and notes a prospective mineralized area with a 2 km strike, 800 m width, and 800 m depth that remains open to expansion. On the Fenelon side, management has evaluated cutoff grades at 1.5 g, 2 g, and 2.5 g, with higher-grade material expected in the first five years, and envisions an underground bulk-mining scenario at roughly 3,000 tons per day.

Technical risk 5

Key takeaway. Management has identified several technical assumptions and risks for the project.

Read the full summary

A key assumption is that the deposit lacks clay in the soil, supporting the dry stack tailings approach, though the company notes clay in tailings soil is a potential problem for that method (Dec 2025). These dry stack tailings and paste backfill assumptions are being tested through metallurgical work (May 2026). Additional stated risks include the need for infill drilling before the pre-feasibility stage and ongoing mill size optimization (May 2026). Separately, the company's geological assumption at Martineier describes discrete shear zones with higher-grade structures similar to Fenolon, citing high-grade intervals of 29-30 grams over 2 meters and 115 gram sub-intervals within lower-grade 1-5 gram envelopes (Dec 2025).

What was actually said
key assumption
Dry stack tailings and paste backfill assumptions being tested through met work
“From the met testing, it'll prove some of the assumptions we built into the PEA on dry stack tailings and uh and uh paste backfill.”
Unknown speaker· 13 May 2026·
stated risk
Infill drilling needed before pre-feasibility; mill size optimization in progress
“There's a lot of infill drilling to do. So, what we're focused at today is some of the long lead time studies.”
Unknown speaker· 13 May 2026·
key assumption
Geology at Martineier shows discrete shear zones with higher grade structures, similar to Fenolon; high-grade intervals of 29-30 grams over 2 meters, 115 gram sub-intervals versus lower-grade 1-5 gram envelopes
“what we see at Martinier... what we see in the geology at Martineier in terms of how you know how the gold is distributed through the rock is very similar to what we see at Fenolon... discrete shear zones that host um the higher grade structures within them... 29 30 uh grams over 2 meters you know 115 gram sub intervals”
Mark Petersen· 03 Dec 2025·
Show the other 2 statements
key assumption
Dry stack tailings approach; assumption that the deposit does not have clay in soil
“we're going to do a second metallurgical test. But what that does, it gives us metallurgical data...we don't think we have any but it'll give us a way of testing this up front”
Brian William Penny· 03 Dec 2025·
stated risk
Clay in tailings soil is a potential problem with dry stack tailings
“it appears that you know one of the big problems with dry stacks tailings is you know clay in the soil and stuff like that.”

Timeline 6 statements

Timeline 6

Key takeaway. Management has outlined a multi-year timeline for advancing Fenelon.

Read the full summary

In May 2026, the company said a pre-feasibility study is planned, followed by a feasibility study and then two years to build, with a goal to finance and take the project to the next step sometime next year. However, earlier in December 2025, management stated the pre-feasibility study was expected in approximately five to six years, creating a conflict between the two statements. For the near term, management noted in December 2025 a two-phase drilling program is planned for the coming year, including larger-diameter core for bench-scale metallurgical testing, and is completing a structural model of the 2-kilometer-long Bug Lake deformation corridor with 14 recognized fault structures. In May 2026, Martiniere was described as a short-term catalyst with upcoming drill result news flow.

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.
