Russian 100-Baggers & Insane Profits via Jurisdictional Contrarian Courage with Rick Rule

Preview:Rick Rule argues that the precious-metals and royalty/streaming complex had a spectacular 2025 because years of stagnation created a coiled-spring move, but he does not expect 2026 to repeat that magnitude. The interview is less a near-term trade call than a framework for where he thinks capital should flow: high-quality assets, strong teams, low-cost capital structures, and jurisdictions where geology and politics eventually align.

Mexican Silver Junior Mining Stocks: Buy, Sell or Hold? - Pro Investor David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle argues the precious-metals bull market is still intact, with gold and silver benefiting from stagflationary U.S. data, geopolitical stress, and strong miner relative strength. His main actionable message is that Mexico remains investable, but only on a case-by-case basis by jurisdiction; he is more selective now, rotating into earlier-stage juniors while avoiding or exiting names where cartel risk has worsened.

“Mega Uranium Mine Concept” via Rapid Resource Growth explained by Atomic Eagle CEO Phil Hoskins

Preview:Phil Hoskins says Atomic Eagle is trying to re-rate the former GoviEx Uranium assets by combining resource growth, a larger exploration target, and a simple heap-leach development concept in Zambia. Near-term, the story hinges on an imminent feasibility-study reissue, an early-March resource upgrade, and a larger 2026 drill program that could expand Mutanga from 47 million pounds toward a much bigger inventory.

Developing Brazil’s Next Copper Mine with Lara Exploration CEO Simon Ingram

Preview:This interview is a promotional deep dive on Lara Exploration’s Planalto copper-gold project in Brazil. CEO Simon Ingram argues the company is using the same low-risk, partnership-driven prospect-generator model that previously created major value at Reservoir Minerals, and says Planalto is now transitioning from discovery/exploration into development with a PEA that shows meaningful leverage to copper prices.

Scorpio Gold Corp: High-Grade Gold in a Newly Consolidated Nevada District with CEO Zayn Kalyan

Preview:This is a sponsor-style interview on Scorpio Gold’s Nevada consolidation story. CEO Zayn Kalyan argues that the company’s 8.5 km Manhattan district, centered on a 740,000 oz resource at 1.26 g/t, has room to grow meaningfully through aggressive drilling, with catalysts coming from step-outs, infill upgrades, warrant exercises, and a possible US listing/cross-listing.

Uranium Deposits: What Investors Must Know with Dr. Rob Stevens

Preview:Dr. Rob Stevens argues that uranium is in a strong setup because nuclear demand is rising, AI/data centers are adding new power demand, supply investment has lagged, and a structural deficit could emerge around 2029–2030. He then explains the main uranium deposit types, how unconformity and sandstone-hosted deposits form, why many deposits are small but can cluster, and what investors should look for in exploration and mining.

Rare Gold Stock Opportunity, Platinum Profits, & Mining Insights with Portfolio Manager Sam Broom

Preview:Sam Broom argues that the precious-metals and broader resource space is still early enough in the cycle that the best opportunities are in a narrow set of high-quality, small-to-midcap producers with visible internal growth. He thinks the recent gold/silver crash was a leverage/liquidity event, not a fundamental change, and he remains constructive on gold, platinum, some niche metals, and selected energy names, while warning that overtrading volatility is the main near-term risk.

Bull Market Advice, Recent Conference Sentiment & Discerning Bias with Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Preview:Bill Powers and Brian Leni discuss bullish junior mining sentiment after recent Vancouver conferences, the importance of understanding investor psychology, and how to separate bias from process when evaluating mining stock recommendations. Leni says conference attendance and enthusiasm were strong, younger crypto investors are entering the space, and many juniors have already rerated, making value harder to find. The conversation repeatedly returns to disciplined profit-taking, the danger of crowd psychology, and how each investor should filter commentary through the speaker’s incentives, skill set, and disclosed holdings.

CATL's Huge $17.2B Lithium-Iron-Phosphate Order & First Phosphate Receives Future Supply Pre-payment

Preview:This is a sponsor-style interview about First Phosphate’s thesis: phosphate is the overlooked bottleneck in LFP batteries, and CATL’s reported huge tender for LFP cathode active material is used as evidence that demand is still accelerating. Bill Powers interviews CEO/founder John Passalacqua, who argues First Phosphate is differentiated because it is focused entirely on high-purity igneous phosphate for battery-grade LFP, not fertilizer phosphate.

“I’m Buying These Types of Junior Miners Now” explains Pro Investor David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle argues the precious-metals bull market is still early, with junior miners lagging badly despite huge gains in gold and silver. He says the next money is shifting from late-stage winners into higher-risk, smaller sub-$250M explorers, especially those with district-scale projects, strong drill results, and credible management.

Mega Mining Mergers, Market Cycles and Mistake Avoidance with Expert Joe Mazumdar

Preview:Joe Mazumdar argues the mining sector is moving into a more strategic, policy-driven phase where scale, permitting, smelting/refining capacity, and jurisdiction matter as much as the commodity price. He likes the logic of a potential Rio Tinto–Glencore merger, sees capex expansions at existing permitted sites as more attractive than greenfield builds, and warns that tariffs, nationalism, infrastructure bottlenecks, and capital intensity can still break weak projects even in a bull market.

Royalty Sector Insights, Contrarian Opportunities & $12/lb Copper - Altius Minerals CEO Brian Dalton

Preview:Brian Dalton argues the royalty business has become mainstream, with capital increasingly flowing into royalty/streaming as a preferred partner model rather than a fringe financing niche. He thinks the sector is entering a more competitive, more institutional phase, while Altius is positioning itself contrarianly through selective deals, especially lithium, and by leaning on technical asset selection and long-duration thinking. A recurring theme is that commodity bull markets overshoot incentive prices, which he uses to justify his comment that “there’s $12 copper in this market somewhere.”

“Outstanding Surface Results”: 155m of .54% Copper at Coppernico Metals Nioc target - CEO Ivan Bebek

Preview:This is a sponsor update/interview about Coppernico Metals’ Sombrero project in Peru, focused on the NEOK target. CEO Ivan Bebek says recent surface work extended a strong copper trench from 52m of ~1% copper to 155m of 0.54% copper, which he frames as some of the best un-drilled surface copper results he has seen globally. The discussion centers on surface sampling, permitting progress, community access, financing, and the company’s plan to keep advancing multiple targets across Sombrero as copper prices strengthen.

“Hecla Competitor”: Contango Ore & Dolly Varden Silver Merge to Create a High-Growth Au-Ag Producer

Preview:This interview centers on the announced merger between Contango Ore and Dolly Varden Silver to create a larger North American precious-metals producer. The speakers argue the combination makes strategic sense because the assets are geographically aligned, high grade, cash-flowing, and complementary: Contango brings current production and cash flow, while Dolly Varden brings a large silver/gold exploration pipeline. They frame the resulting company as a potential mid-tier competitor to Hecla, with meaningful scale, a stronger balance sheet, and a hub-and-spoke development model. The near-term focus is on shareholder approval, court approvals, and closing expected around mid-March. The most important forward-looking catalyst is Dolly Varden’s updated resource estimate in the first half of 2026, which Sean argues could add about 50% more silver resource and address concerns that the merger “dilutes” silver exposure. Rick emphasizes that Contango’s production and cash flow are already real, and that the combined company can use that cash to advance Johnson Track, Lucky Shot, and eventually mill ownership. Overall, the tone is promotional but specific, with the main investment case resting on execution, high grades, jurisdiction, and the promise of a much larger growth runway than either company had alone.

Junior Mining Lessons, New Opportunities & When to Sell Your Bullion with Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Preview:Bill Powers and Brian Leni use a year-end reflection episode to stress self-critique, due diligence, and profit-taking in junior mining/speculation. Their core message is that investors should distrust hype, study structures and incentives, and sell into strength instead of assuming winners will compound forever.

“We Own a 4% NSR Royalty on a Growing Gold Deposit (2.55 Moz @ 5.47 g/t)” -Kenorland CEO Zach Flood

Preview:This is a sponsor update interview centered on Kenorland Minerals’ 4% NSR royalty on the Froet/Renault gold discovery with Sumitomo. CEO Zach Flood says the maiden inferred resource—2.55Moz at 5.47 g/t—confirms a major discovery, but he frames it as an early starting point because the system remains wide open and the resource is based on only about 130,000m of drilling.

Gold Stock Peak Indicators, Current Junior Miner Value & Recent Silver Deals with Pro David Erfle

Preview:Bill Powers interviews junior-miner newsletter writer David Erfle about how he manages a very profitable mining portfolio late in the cycle, why he still thinks juniors are underowned, and how recent silver financings and M&A are changing the opportunity set. Erfle argues the sector is still not in a mania, the best names are still catching up to metal prices, and the right response is disciplined trimming rather than trying to call the exact top.

Rick Rule Reveals His Best Oil Stocks and Proven Mining Investment Strategies

Preview:Rick Rule argues that his best junior-mining returns come from backing high-quality people in hated markets, then selling into valuation and crowd recognition rather than waiting for perfection. He extends that framework to gold and oil: own beta first, prefer liquid high-quality names, and use dividends to offset being early. He is skeptical of niche metals, government “support,” and small speculative projects, while expressing strong preference for established cash-flowing energy and royalty names.

Fury Gold Mines' Pathway to Production: CEO Tim Clark Discusses Potential Collaborations

Preview:This interview is a bullish update on Fury Gold Mines’ pivot from pure exploration toward development and, ultimately, production at Eau Claire/Oaklair. CEO Tim Clark and VP Exploration Brian Atkinson argue the recent PEA, growing resource base, and new talks with the nearby Eleanor mine owner (DPM/Dilmar) give Fury a clearer path to a rerating, while also highlighting Sakami, Committee Bay, and Fury’s Dolly Varden equity stake as supporting value drivers.

“Massive Purified Phosphoric Acid Squeeze Coming” explains First Phosphate’s CEO John Passalacqua

Preview:A Mining Stock Education interview with First Phosphate CEO John Passalacqua argues that purified phosphoric acid is the missing bottleneck for LFP batteries, not lithium. He says First Phosphate’s igneous phosphate deposit in Quebec can be upgraded directly into purified phosphoric acid, giving the company leverage to both battery supply-chain demand and a possible shortage in purified phosphoric acid.

Competent or Aligned CEOs: Which Is Better? Junior Mining Insights from Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Preview:A monthly Junior Mining Insights discussion between Bill Powers and Brian Leni focused on investor judgment in junior mining: they both argued that management competence matters more than simple incentive alignment, while noting that the ideal is to have both. The conversation expanded into how to assess management through compensation, financing structure, technical-study quality, openness to criticism, and personal network checks, with repeated warnings that junior mining has many ways to lose money beyond just getting the metal price right.

Battery Metal Opportunities with a “20-Bagger Future” explains Speculator Gianni Kovacevic

Preview:Gianni Kovacevic argues that the next major opportunity in battery metals is in electric-metal niches tied to LFP batteries—especially purified phosphoric acid/phosphate and lithium, with DLE/brine projects as the preferred way to access future supply. He is bullish on lithium demand, skeptical of cobalt and manganese, and sees copper as already more efficient/recognized, while preferring byproduct exposure to gold/silver rather than standalone precious-metals bets.

“Gold Miners are Cheap Relative to the Gold Price” says Pro Investor David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle argues gold stocks and especially junior miners are still cheap versus gold, despite a huge run in bullion and miners. He sees the gold price trying to build a floor near $4,000, silver basing near $50, and expects money eventually to rotate from an overvalued general stock market into gold equities as AI/Bitcoin-linked sentiment cools. The interview also centers on Probe Gold’s takeover by Fresnillo, which Erfle thinks is too cheap and may attract a higher bid, likely from Agnico Eagle or possibly Kinross.

The Key to Mastering Junior Mining Cyclicality: Insights from Bill Powers and Brian Leni

Preview:Bill Powers and Brian Leni discuss junior mining investor psychology through the lens of Howard Marks' wisdom on how emotions (greed and fear) drive price swings more than fundamentals. They explore contrarian strategies for the current gold bull market, critique controversial financings at ATEX Resources and Next Metals, debate the gold-to-silver ratio's usefulness, and emphasize the importance of rules-based selling, understanding one's own psychology, and avoiding "greasy" promoters.

“Copper Discovery Targets Expanded” explains Coppernico CEO Ivan Bebek (Sombrero Project Update)

Preview:Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek provides an update on the Sombrero copper-gold project in Peru, detailing the newly discovered Roomie target, permit progress, community engagement strategy, and the company's positioning ahead of what he expects will be a major copper bull market in the next two years.

“Stock Pickers Beware”: Finding True Junior Mining Stock Value with Analyst Joe Mazumdar

Preview:Bill Powers interviews Joe Mazumdar about junior mining stock selection in a broad precious-metals and critical-minerals bull market. Joe argues that with almost everything rising, the hard part is not finding winners now but avoiding weaker names when the cycle turns, and he emphasizes financing quality, jurisdiction, management, and real project progression over headline price action.

Junior Gold Stock Bull Market Strategies with Dave Kranzler

Preview:Dave Kranzler returns to Mining Stock Education to discuss the junior gold mining bull market. He argues gold's momentum is driven by Eastern Hemisphere demand overwhelming Western price-management efforts, alongside a structural shift away from dollar reserve status. Kranzler describes his high-risk "elephant hunting" strategy — targeting sub-$100M market cap juniors with 10x upside, accepting 70% failure rates. He emphasizes management conversations as his core analytical edge, criticizes short-sellers who don't contact management before publishing reports, and advises taking partial profits on positions already showing 2-3x gains. He specifically mentions US Gold Corp as a low risk-adjusted opportunity for a double or triple.

Navigating Gold's Meteoric Rise and Strategic Portfolio Management with David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle (JuniorMinerJunkie.com) and host Bill Powers discuss gold's parabolic move past $4,100, silver's backwardation and 45-year cup-and-handle breakout, and the junior miner sector catching up. Erfle advocates holding core positions while trimming on the way up, sees juniors as still cheap (~$100/oz in ground vs $1,000-$1,200 at prior peaks), and notes oil is a no-brainer on the oil-to-gold ratio. Key resistance: gold $4,500, silver $55-60 short-term.

Maximizing Profits in a Junior Mining Bull Market with Bill Powers and Brian Leni

Preview:Bill Powers and Brian Leni argue that the current junior mining bull market is exactly when investors should be harvesting profits, not chasing euphoria. Their core message is that a rising sector can mask weak discipline, overconfidence, and even questionable management behavior, so investors need predetermined sell targets, a plan for redeploying gains, and enough skepticism to ask why a stock is going up at all.

Sombrero Copper-Gold Project Update: “Increased Access” with Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek

Preview:Ivan Bebek, CEO of Coppernico Metals, provides an update on the Sombrero copper-gold project in Peru. The company has reached an agreement with Aceros Arequipa to gain access to the Furaso target area, which has historic drill holes confirming copper mineralization at depth. Permitting is advancing, with drilling expected in H1 2026 (ideally late Q1/early Q2). Bebek also discusses two potential US acquisitions — a pure gold play and a copper-gold skarn system — that could provide drill-ready optionality while Sombrero permits progress. He notes strong institutional support from Teck and Newmont, and frames Sombrero as a globally unique, district-scale opportunity with multiple tier-one targets across a 10-target pipeline.

Gold Royalty Boom: What Investors Should Know with Insider Alexandra Woodyer Sherron

Preview:Alexandra Woodyer Sherron, CEO and President of Empress Royalties, explains the gold royalty and streaming business model, recent M&A consolidation trends (Gold Royalty/Sandstorm, Triple Flag/Origin, EMX/Elemental with Tether capital), and how investors should analyze royalty companies. She details Empress's strategy of direct structured finance deals with near-term producers, discusses gold/silver macro tailwinds, and argues the junior streaming space is underserved.

Insider Tips and Veteran Insights from 30-year Junior Mining Stock Pro Michael Kosowan

Preview:Michael Kosowan, a 30-year junior mining veteran (mining engineer, former Rick Rule broker, now chairman of TDG Gold Corp), sits down with host Bill Powers for a career-spanning interview. Kosowan outlines his philosophy: let winners ride, use insider ownership as a key vetting tool, and recognize that we are still early in a new junior mining bull cycle. He discusses his thesis that senior gold producers need new discoveries and will increasingly turn to juniors, and he walks through his involvement in Eminent Gold Corp, Torq Resources, TDG Gold Corp, and Almaden Resources.

“Junior Mining Opportunities Everywhere” with David Erfle & Brian Leni from the Beaver Creek Summit

Preview:Bill Powers hosts David Erfle and Brian Leni at the Beaver Creek Precious Metals Summit to discuss the junior-mining setup. They argue the sector is still early, with GDX at an all-time high but GDXJ still far below its peak, money flowing back into juniors, and M&A chatter potentially making Q4 2025 and early 2026 active. Both are bullish on precious metals but are increasingly selective, trimming winners and looking for better value in copper, polymetallics, and earlier-stage juniors.

Proven Multi-Bagger Formula Revealed by Junior Mining Stock Expert Jeff Phillips

Preview:Jeff Phillips argues that junior mining is a highly cyclical speculation game, not traditional investing, and says his edge comes mainly from share structure and management quality rather than the geology alone. He describes a career built on financing disciplined teams, favoring large insider ownership, fully reporting shareholders, and long lockups, while warning that weak capital structures, short-term financing terms, and commodity-price slumps can overwhelm even strong assets.

“These High-grade Copper Results Are Incredibly Rare” says Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek

Preview:Ivan Bebek says Coppernico Metals’ Sombrero project just delivered unusually strong copper surface results that reinforce a rare combination of grade, scale, and geophysical support. He argues the project could be world-class if drilling confirms the system, while noting the company is funded for now and the next catalysts are permits, follow-up drilling, and more target results.

CEO Sued, Anon Promos, & Learning from Success: Junior Mining Insights with Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Preview:A junior-mining discussion focused on process: learning from both wins and losses, taking profits, position sizing, skepticism toward anonymous promoters, and how to think about management accountability in a sector full of dilution, financing risk, and execution failures. Bill Powers and Brian Leni repeatedly stress that even in a strong gold cycle, investors need to size positions carefully, avoid leverage, verify claims independently, and be willing to sell winners into strength rather than assume every bull market will bail them out.

Gold Mine PEA: $639M NPV, 84% IRR, 1.15yr Payback at only $2400 Gold explains Fury CEO Tim Clark

Preview:Fury Gold Mines CEO Tim Clark and SVP Exploration Brian Atkinson present the PEA for the Éléonore (Oaklair) project in Quebec's James Bay region. The study outlines three scenarios — standalone mill, hybrid toll milling, and full toll milling — with after-tax NPV5 ranging from $554M to $639M and IRRs from 41% to 84% at a conservative $2,400/oz gold. The high-grade deposit (5.22 g/t diluted) has a tight mine plan with 76koz/year over 11 years and strong optionality for expansion, consolidation, or an eventual sale to a producer like Newmont's Éléonore mine.

Mastering Discovery Hole Investing with Geologist and Broker Steve Todoruk

Preview:Bill Powers interviews broker/geologist Steve Todoruk about a discovery-hole investing approach in junior mining. Todoruk argues the best setups are very wide, high-grade initial drill holes in projects that can plausibly grow into multi-million-ounce deposits and be attractive takeover targets for majors; he also explains why he prefers waiting for the discovery announcement rather than trying to anticipate it.

Expert Mine Valuation Tips with Pros Michael Sinden and Gordon Sobering of Costmine Intelligence

Preview:This interview focuses on how mining project cost estimates are built, where technical studies often go wrong, and what investors should watch for. The guests argue that inflation, labor, permitting, reclamation, ramp-up assumptions, and metallurgy often matter more than headline capex numbers, and they stress that PEA-level studies are especially unreliable.

Junior Mining Stock Timely and Timeless Insights with Pro Investor Dave Lotan

Preview:Bill Powers interviews returning guest Dave Lotan about junior mining cycle timing, capital flows, and how government policy can create or extend opportunity in resource stocks. Lotan argues the sector is just starting to re-enter a growth-seeking phase after a very long cycle, with gold already strong and policy-driven themes like uranium, rare earths, antimony, tungsten, copper, and AI-linked power demand creating potential follow-on trades.

Junior Mining Arbitrage Opportunities Provide Easy Profit for Astute Investors says Jayant Bhandari

Preview:Jayant Bhandari of Anarco Capital explains how retail investors can profit from persistent arbitrage opportunities in junior mining M&A. He argues market inefficiencies — illiquidity, cross-jurisdictional listings, tired shareholders, and investor laziness — create 20–60%+ upside situations that can last months, not hours. He walks through specific past trades (Sunridge Gold, Kiska Metals, Paramount Gold Nevada, True Gold/Endeavor Mining, Griffin/Teranga) and outlines his simple-math approach: calculate the merger equation, assess management and assets, and optionally short the acquirer to hedge.

When YOU Should Sell A Junior Mining Stock: Minera Alamos Case Study with Investor Sultan Ameerali

Preview:Sultan Ameerali walks through his recent decision to sell Minera Alamos (MAI) after a heavily dilutive recapitalization/acquisition of Nevada assets from Equinox. He originally bought in 2018 as part of a bootstrap-miner basket, averaged down to C$0.27, and sold around C$0.35 after the deal — a ~25% gain over seven years that underperformed broad benchmarks. The conversation is a candid postmortem: protecting downside vs. chasing upside, the role of ego in holding too long, why warrants cap a stock, and how process discipline matters more than outcomes. Ameerali does not attribute malice to management but concludes the risk/reward no longer works for him.

Multiple Gold Discovery “Shots on Goal” - Results in Next 60 Days says Fury Gold Mines CEO Tim Clark

Preview:Tim Clark (CEO) and Brian Atkinson (SVP Exploration) of Fury Gold Mines provide a sponsor update on multiple discovery-stage projects. The centerpiece is the first hole from the newly acquired Sakami project (41.12m at 1.23 g/t gold), released early to signal momentum. Committee Bay (funded by Agnico Eagle) is framed as "the big swing," with drilling underway and results expected mid-September. Oaklair is positioned as a near-development high-grade asset. The Kipawa rare earths project is acknowledged as a real but dormant optionality play. Management emphasizes low dilution (~3-4%/year), a strong Dolly Varden equity position, and a strategy of building resources to attract mid-cap buyers.

“Most Lucrative Junior Mining Sector Pricing Ever” says 40-year Veteran John Kaiser

Preview:John Kaiser argues that junior mining stocks are offering the richest speculative valuations he has seen in decades, because gold prices have re-rated the sector while many projects are still priced as if gold will fall back sharply. He walks through his “rational speculator” framework for estimating project value versus probability of success, and says the biggest opportunities are in underfollowed exploration and advanced-development names where the market is underappreciating ounces, pounds, and drill upside.

What Investors Should Know about A.I. Drill Core Scanning with Dr. Rob Stevens

Preview:Dr. Rob Stevens explains AI-powered drill core scanning technologies (XRF, hyperspectral, LIBS) used in mineral exploration — how they work, their advantages over visual logging alone, and what investors should know. The core thesis: core scanning adds unbiased geochemical data that improves geological interpretation, but it supplements rather than replaces assay labs. For investors, companies using these tools well may gain an edge in discovery success, though core scanning claims in press releases warrant skepticism without demonstrated lab correlation.

Ten-Bagger Losses, ‘Spray & Pray’ Speculators & Junior Mining Insights with Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Preview:A monthly Junior Mining Insights discussion between Bill Powers and Brian Leni focused on how each investor learned from missed winners and losses, why they now use a tighter, more selective process, and how to think about junior mining speculation in a gold bull market. They argue that process, valuation, management quality, and concentration matter more than simply chasing every strong story, even if a broad bull market can mask weak picks for a while.

Don Durrett’s 100-Bagger Mining Stock and Investment Strategies Revealed

Preview:Don Durrett argues that miners are still in the early innings of a powerful bull market, with a major trade setup driven by higher gold and silver prices and eventual stress in the U.S. bond market. He prefers producers and mid-tier producers over exploration stories, and says his edge comes from buying only companies that check a strict list of operational, financial, and insider-ownership boxes.

Coppernico Metals Aims to Add USA Copper-Gold Project for Year-Round Drilling says CEO Ivan Bebek

Preview:Ivan Bebek, CEO of Coppernico Metals, provides an update on the Sombrero copper-gold project in Peru — permitting announcements expected within 30 days, with phase two drilling to follow. He also reveals the company is negotiating to add US-based gold and copper assets to create year-round drilling capability and build a more active news flow. The company has ~11-12 months of working capital and trades on the TSX (CPR) and OTCQB (CPPMF). The core thesis: assemble a compelling copper-gold exploration portfolio before the junior mining bull market fully ignites.

“Gold Stocks Still Have to Catch Up to the Gold Price” says Pro Investor David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle argues gold stocks are still lagging the gold price and should continue catching up, with silver and junior miners now showing the strongest relative strength. He sees the sector as unusually healthy: prices are consolidating bullishly, balance sheets are strong, margins are set to expand further, and M&A should accelerate as majors and mid-tiers look to add ounces.

“This is a New Discovery We're Beginning to Unravel” at South Uchi says Kenorland CEO Zach Flood

Preview:Kenorland Minerals CEO Zach Flood provides an update on the South Uchi gold discovery in Ontario, where maiden drilling by partner Oronova Resources confirmed a large gold system across an 8km x 3km area with no prior known gold occurrences. Key intercepts include 9.5m at 1.2 g/t Au (with visible gold), 25m at 2 g/t, and broad lower-grade intervals. Flood also details a new deal with Santara Gold covering three projects in NW Ontario, discusses Kenorland's project-generator model, and outlines near-term catalysts including follow-up drilling at South Uchi, initial drilling at Opanaka, and a scout hole at Tanacross in Alaska.

How Mining Stock Fund Manager Matt Geiger Outperformed the S&P 500 over 5yr and 10yr Periods

Preview:Matt Geiger says MJG Capital has materially outperformed both the S&P 500 and its own history, and he argues the bigger story is a coming rotation away from over-owned U.S. equities and toward commodities, international assets, and mining-related opportunities. The discussion then shifts into why he likes copper, precious metals, prospect generators, and royalty companies, and how he screens and exits positions.

"Each Seabridge Gold Share Represents $9,000 In-Situ Metal, Yet Trades for $16” says CEO Rudi Fronk

Preview:A long-form interview with Seabridge Gold CEO Rudi Fronk focused on why he thinks Seabridge is deeply undervalued despite a ~$1.5B market cap. His central argument is that Seabridge’s per-share metal backing, de-risked KSM project in British Columbia, and eventual joint-venture partner should drive a major rerating. He also frames gold as re-entering the center of the global financial system, which he thinks favors both bullion and gold equities.

How to Confidently Speculate in Junior Mining Stocks with Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Preview:Bill Powers and Brian Leni discuss junior mining speculation through the lens of process, downside protection, and management quality. The conversation centers on optionality names, flow-through financings, warrants, confidence in management, and how to build and use watch lists in a bull market.

David Erfle Reveals His Top Three Performing Precious Metals Junior Mining Stocks

Preview:Bill Powers interviews David Erfle about the precious-metals junior mining market. Erfle argues gold remains supported by geopolitics, U.S. debt, and a weak dollar, while silver and miners are now catching up after a long lag. His core message is that the bull market is still early for retail, and the best opportunities are moving down the quality ladder into earlier-stage juniors with real projects, historic resources, or imminent catalysts like resource updates, PEAs, feasibility studies, financing, and permitting progress.

“Immense Untapped Potential” Confirmed at Frotet Gold Project says Kenorland CEO Zach Flood

Preview:Kenorland Minerals CEO Zach Flood discusses recent drill results at the Frotet gold project in Quebec (4% NSR royalty held by Kenorland, project owned by Sumitomo). Deep drilling returned 6.7m at 30 g/t gold, including 2.75m at 72 g/t. Flood highlights the blue-sky expansion potential at depth, the upcoming maiden resource estimate (late 2025/early 2026), and a potential decline decision by Sumitomo around 2027-2028. He also updates on South Uchi (assays pending, gold system confirmed), new grassroots staking in New Brunswick and Ontario, and the company's dual strategy of protecting the NSR value while pursuing new discoveries.

“Junior Mining Stocks are Entering the Market Recognition Phase” says Pro Investor Michael Gentile

Preview:Michael Gentile argues junior mining stocks are starting to enter a “market recognition phase” after several hard years of capital raising and project advancement. He contrasts his roles as a co-founder of Bastion Asset Management and as a strategic investor/director in junior resource companies, emphasizing that he prefers to back projects with his own capital, influence boards constructively, and focus on capital structure, management quality, jurisdiction, and execution.

Expert Ed Baer Reveals His Contrarian Mining Stock Secrets that Made Him Millions

Preview:Ed Baer argues that junior mining investing is mostly about jurisdiction, geology, governance, and disciplined due diligence—not the spot price of gold. He says retail investors overread press releases, misunderstand how ounces in the ground are valued, and often ignore political and community risk. He also shares a contrarian preference for places like Manitoba and a skeptical view of expensive boards, IR spend, and public-market hype.

Brian’s Top Stock and Bill’s Mistakes: Junior Mining Insights with Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Preview:Bill Powers and Brian Leni discuss how they invest in junior miners: they prefer concentrated positions, deep due diligence, and management teams they know well over lifestyle companies, promotional stories, or small speculative punts. A major focus is jurisdiction risk—how to think about Alaska vs. Yukon, why political and infrastructure issues matter, and why any jurisdiction can turn from favorable to unfavorable and back again.

Agnico Eagle Invests in Fury Gold Mines to Fund Drilling at Committee Bay explains CEO Tim Clark

Preview:Fury Gold Mines CEO Tim Clark and SVP Exploration Brian Atkinson discuss Agnico Eagle's strategic investment: a C$0.64/share placement (23% premium) to fund summer drilling at the Committee Bay gold project in Nunavut. The deal validates Fury's geological thesis — Agnico had previously dismissed the project but changed its view after seeing new shear-zone targets. Fury also holds a large Dolly Varden share position (~US$33M), ~C$7.8M cash, the Eau Claire gold resource, Eleonore South, the newly acquired Sakami gold project, and an overlooked rare earths asset from the QPM acquisition. Drills turn at Committee Bay the first full week of July.

“Value is Now in High-Risk Junior Miners” says Pro Investor David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle argues that the biggest value in precious-metals equities has shifted from later-stage miners into higher-risk juniors, especially in silver. He says the recent pullback-and-breakout pattern, the rise in silver, and the breakout in junior benchmarks like the Venture Exchange suggest money is rotating down the food chain, while the major-miner trade has become more mature and fairly valued.

Pro Insights on Several Mining Stocks by Analyst Joe Mazumdar

Preview:Joe Mazumdar gives a grounded, deal-focused read on mining: financing is still available for credible projects, but often at painful discounts, and capital structure is now as important as geology. He is constructive on Pan American Silver’s MAG deal, explains copper TC/RC stress as a supply-side and smelter issue, and flags Peru’s illegal mining problem as a serious security and country-risk concern.

Prepare for $40,000 GOLD, Hyperinflation and a Currency Reset says Analyst Lynette Zang

Preview:Bill Powers interviews Lynette Zang about her thesis that the world is entering a hyperinflationary depression and a currency reset, with gold and other hard assets as the main protection. She argues the IMF’s SDR, tokenization, and digitized assets could form a more universal monetary system, while gold/silver remain the only real escape from counterparty risk and future confiscation or surveillance.

Robust Copper Outcrops Will Be Drilled Next says Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek

Preview:Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek provides an update on the Sombrero copper project in Peru after the first 20-hole drill program yielded lower-than-hoped grades. He frames the results as "smoke versus fire" — vectoring toward higher-grade zones — and argues the next drilling phase targeting robust outcrops and historical holes has a significantly higher probability of success. The market has not rewarded the stock, which Bebek attributes to macro headwinds (tariffs, flat junior equities) and the under-cover nature of the initial targets. He teases upcoming surface sampling results, new target identification, and a broader 200-hole permit application, while also hinting at potential US-based acquisitions to diversify while waiting on Peruvian permits.

Western Investors Rediscover Gold and Gold Stocks says Pro Investor David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle (Junior Miner Junky) argues gold is near a short-to-intermediate-term top after a parabolic run, but the secular bull market has much further to go as Western investors only just begin entering via GLD inflows. He sees stagflation as confirmed by the Fed, the Trump-Powell feud as another gold catalyst, and advises focusing on junior gold stocks with tight share structures, strong management, and at least 12 months of cash runway. He is adding earlier-stage (PEA-stage) companies to his portfolio but avoiding pure drill plays.

Two Junior Gold Stock Picks Explained by Pro Small-Cap Investor Mark Zaret

Preview:Bill Powers interviews returning guest Mark Zaret about how to handle volatility and why he still likes a couple of junior gold names.

Rotation into Gold Stocks Happening Now says Pro Investor David Erfle

Preview:David Erfle argues the gold-mining sector is in the early phase of a major rotation: gold has broken out, the miners are finally outperforming the broad market, and capital is leaving AI/crypto for undervalued mining equities. He is constructive on majors, but he expects juniors to start outperforming more meaningfully now that the sector has broken key technical levels and generalist investors are paying attention.

Preview:Fury Gold Mines CEO Tim Clark and Quebec Precious Metals CEO Normand Champigny discuss Fury's proposed acquisition of QPM at PDAC 2025.

“Next Three Drill Holes Are the Most Exciting” says Coppernico CEO Ivan Bebek at PDAC Core Shack

Preview:Coppernico Metals CEO Ivan Bebek sits down with Bill Powers at PDAC 2025 to discuss the Sombrero copper project in Peru. Phase 1 drilling (17 of 20 holes done) has been a slow grind through covered terrain, but Bebek argues the technical picture keeps improving — more skarn targets, better vectoring, and three remaining holes (18–20) that he calls the most exciting and potentially "transformational." The company is pausing drilling after hole 20 to let assays catch up, advance permits for a 200-hole expansion, and wait out the weak junior copper equity market. Bebek sees copper's macro setup improving through H2 2025 and hints at M&A ambitions while the sector is cheap. Treasury runway is solid (~7–8 months with drilling, longer without).

Profit from The Antimony Bull Run with Analyst Joe Mazumdar

Preview:Bill Powers interviews Joe Mazumdar of Exploration Insights about antimony, permitting, capital access, M&A, and jurisdiction risk in mining. Mazumdar’s core view is that antimony is becoming a “security mineral” that can help projects get permitted and financed, especially when paired with gold; he also argues that North American and Australian capital pools value mining projects very differently, so listing venue and investor base matter as much as geology.

Proven Discovery Machine Kenorland Minerals Exemplifies Capital Efficiency explains CEO Zach Flood
