VANCOUVER, BC, May 26, 2021 /CNW/ – FPX Nickel Corp. (TSXV: FPX) ("FPX" or the "Company") is pleased to provide an overview of an expanded exploration program starting in June at the Company's Decar Nickel District ("Decar") in central British Columbia. In addition to the drill programs at the Baptiste Deposit and the Van Target (see the Company's May 10, 2021 news release), regional exploration will focus on prospective under- and un-explored areas within this 245 square kilometre ("km²") ophiolite complex.

Highlights

• FPX to conduct regional mapping and surface sampling within the Decar land package at the existing Sid and B targets and at five new prospective areas

• Work at Sid and B designed to potentially expand the footprint of known mineralization and investigate the ground located between the two targets, where previous drilling has generated positive results

• Reconnaissance exploration in five prospective new areas, which have been identified on the basis of high magnetic response from previous airborne surveys, limited previous sampling work and/or improved access to outcrop resulting from recent clear-cut logging activity

"With plans to conduct infill drilling at Baptiste and a maiden drill program at the Van Target this summer, we are excited to conduct additional exploration around the Sid and B targets, plus regional exploration at five other under-explored areas at Decar," commented Martin Turenne, FPX's President and CEO. "The exploration potential at the Decar Nickel District remains vast and offers a compelling opportunity to expand the nickel endowment beyond that already demonstrated at Baptiste, which is the world's third largest undeveloped nickel deposit.*"

Sid and B Targets

Surface exploration will be conducted this summer to further refine and expand the areas within, surrounding and between the Sid and B Targets, located approximately 3 and 4.6 km, respectively, north-northwest of the Baptiste Deposit. The Sid target was tested with two holes in 2010 and the B target had a single hole drilled in 2011; all three holes intersected nickel-iron alloy mineralization over wide intervals with nickel grades comparable to the Baptiste Deposit (see Tables 1 and 2, below).

Table 1 – Results of Previous Drilling at Sid Target

The holes at Sid were drilled to test the depth extent of mineralized ultramafic rock outcrops located west of the drill hole locations. Both holes were drilled to the southwest at an inclination of 60 degrees and were located 325 metres apart on the inferred northwestern boundary of the Sid target area.

Table 2 – Results of Previous Drilling at B Target

New Exploration Areas

The Company has identified five prospective new areas within the Decar claims group on the basis of high magnetic response from previous airborne surveys and, in certain areas, from limited previous sampling. In certain of these areas, recent logging activity by forestry companies has removed significant ground cover, and it is anticipated that additional areas of outcrop which have been previously inaccessible will now be uncovered. The regional exploration work will involve mapping and rock sampling, size estimations of awaruite (the nickel-iron alloy) and Davis Tube Recoverable ("DTR") nickel analysis.

Area 1 is located approximately 1 km north of the Baptiste Deposit. There is only one previous outcrop sample within this area, grading 0.08% DTR nickel. The possible trend extension of the B and Sid target into the northwest part of this area will also be investigated.

Areas 2 and 4 are located southeast of the Van target. Sampling of outcrop has not previously been conducted in these areas, but recent clear-cut logging activity has provided new access to determine if outcrop zones have been exposed in these portions of the Decar claim group.

Area 3 is located approximately 3 km northeast of Baptiste. Previous limited outcrop sampling completed over Area 3 has returned coarse-grained awaruite with DTR nickel grades ranging from 0.07% to 0.131%.

Area 5 is along an apparent northwest-southeast trend to the northwest of the Van Target. No surface sampling has previously been completed within this area but there is recent logging activity which may have exposed new outcrops.

*Note: The Baptiste Deposit ranks as the world's third largest undeveloped nickel deposit, according to Mining Intelligence (see https://www.mining.com/featured-article/ranked-worlds-top-10-nickel-projects)

Dr. Peter Bradshaw, P. Eng., FPX Nickel's Qualified Person under NI 43-101, has reviewed and approved the technical content of this news release.

About the Decar Nickel District

The Company's Decar Nickel District claims cover 245 km² of the Mount Sidney Williams ultramafic/ophiolite complex, 90 km northwest of Fort St. James in central British Columbia. The District is a two-hour drive from Fort St. James on a high-speed logging road.

Decar hosts a greenfield discovery of nickel mineralization in the form of a naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy called awaruite (Ni₃Fe), which is amenable to bulk-tonnage, open-pit mining. Awaruite mineralization has been identified in four target areas within this ophiolite complex, being the Baptiste Deposit, and the B, Sid and Van targets, as confirmed by drilling in the first three plus petrographic examination, electron probe analyses and outcrop sampling on all four. Since 2010, approximately US $24 million has been spent on the exploration and development of Decar.

Of the four targets in the Decar Nickel District, the Baptiste Deposit, which was initially the most accessible and had the biggest known surface footprint, has been the focus of diamond drilling since 2010, with a total of 82 holes and over 31,000 metres of drilling completed. The Sid target was tested with two holes in 2010 and the B target had a single hole drilled in 2011; all three holes intersected nickel-iron alloy mineralization over wide intervals with DTR nickel grades comparable to the Baptiste Deposit. The Van target was not drill-tested at that time as rock exposure was very poor prior to more recent logging activity.

As reported in the current NI 43-101 resource estimate, having an effective date of September 9, 2020, the Baptiste Deposit contains 1.996 billion tonnes of indicated resources at an average grade of 0.122% DTR nickel, containing 2.4 million tonnes of nickel, plus 593 million tonnes of inferred resources with an average grade of 0.114% DTR nickel, containing 0.7 million tonnes of nickel, both reported at a cut-off grade of 0.06% DTR nickel. Mineral resources are not mineral reserves and do not have demonstrated economic viability.

About FPX Nickel Corp.

FPX Nickel Corp. is focused on the exploration and development of the Decar Nickel District, located in central British Columbia, and other occurrences of the same unique style of naturally occurring nickel-iron alloy mineralization known as awaruite.

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 26, 2021 / Klondike Gold Corp. (TSXV:KG)(FRA:LBDP)(OTC PINK:KDKGF) ("Klondike Gold" or the "Company") is pleased to report Phase 2 diamond drilling has begun at the Lone Star Zone Target area, part of a three phase drill program on the Company's wholly owned 586 square kilometer Klondike District Property near Dawson City, Yukon Territory. Also, the Company has received an early small gold royalty payment from Dulac Mining as the first gold ‘clean up' of 2021.

SUMMARY

• Phase 2 drilling begins at Lone Star Zone, maiden resource in focus.

• Visible gold is identified in the second 2021 drill hole testing the Phase 2 ‘Lone Star East' target area.

• Visible gold also is identified in two of three archived legacy drill cores from 2006, during re-logs. These are within the Phase 2 ‘Lone Star Deep' drill target area.

• Phase 1 drilling at Virgin and Lindow Targets complete (see details below).

• Dulac Mining has begun placer mining operations on the Company's Upper Eldorado Creek placer property. Klondike Gold has received the first royalty (10%) payment of 2021 comprised 0.5 ounces flake gold from a total 4.5 ounces gold recovered during start-up equipment testing.

Peter Tallman, Klondike Gold's CEO stated, "Visible gold in the second 2021 hole at Lone Star Zone is an excellent boost to the start of the season, as is identifying visible gold in two pertinent historic holes by previous management. The ‘behind the scenes' work by our team collecting and modelling structural, geochemical and geologic data is responsible for the Company's confidence in the Lone Star East and Lone Star Deep targets. It is a great start to a breakout season. Credit to the team as a steady and methodical exploration approach over this historic district begins to pay dividends."

PHASE 2 LONE STAR ZONE TARGETS

Phase 2 drilling begins with the focus on outlining a maiden resource within the 3,000+ meter length of Lone Star Zone. The Lone Star Zone footprint from 50-meter spaced drilling is currently 950 meters by 200 meters size (see Figure 1). The majority of 2021 drill meterage will be expended testing for expansions of Lone Star Zone mineralization in two informally named target areas: Lone Star Deep and Lone Star East. The Lone Star Deep target comprises a 600 meter by 200 meter panel the Company is simultaneously testing for near surface, across-strike mineralization as well as for down-dip continuation of the Lone Star Zone to 250 meters below surface. Recent examination of legacy 2006 holes within the Lone Star Deep target encouragingly identified visible gold near surface in two of the three holes (see Figure 1 for 2006 hole location).

The Lone Star East target is a 250 meter by 200 meter panel that tests for eastern continuation of Lone Star Zone gold mineralization. Drilling in 2021 has begun here and visible gold is noted in the second drill hole of the Phase 2 program, LS21-399, at 42.2 meters downhole within an interval typical of Lone Star Zone gold mineralization.

Figure 1: Lone Star Zone Target Areas

PHASE 1 VIRGIN AND LINDOW TARGETS UPDATE

Phase 1 drilling is complete with a total of 356 meters of core drilled in five holes; three at Virgin Mine and two at Lindow targets. Drill operations were difficult in steep terrain and core recoveries were poor and blocky, resulting in short holes. Logging and sampling of these holes is in progress. At least one of the Virgin target holes intersected alluvial white channel gravel perched on a side-hill bench above bedrock; not of economic interest to the Company, but a reminder of the link between gold rush era placer gold and modern exploration.

DULAC MINING ON UPPER ELDORADO CREEK PLACER

Dulac Mining has resumed placer mining operations on the Company's Upper Eldorado Creek placer property and has completed the first gold ‘clean up' of 2021. Klondike Gold has received 0.5 ounces of gold flakes from a total of 4.5 ounces gold recovered from material processed during start-up equipment testing as first royalty (10%) payment of 2021. In 2020 Dulac Mining recovered 500 ounces placer gold (as fines, coarse flakes, and nuggets) with the Company receiving 50 ounces placer gold in royalty payment.

Exploration Continues on Gold-Silver Targets Identified in Phase-1 Diamond Drilling

VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / May 26, 2021 / Brigadier Gold Limited (the "Company" or "Brigadier") (TSXV:BRG)(FSE:B7LM)(OTC PINK:BGADF) is pleased to announce the discovery of bulk tonnage type copper mineralization in trenching and further results from exploration of newly identified gold targets at its Picachos gold-silver-copper project Sinaloa, Mexico (the "Picachos Project," "Picachos" or the "Property"). Additional assays from phase-1 diamond drilling are anticipated to be received in June.

Pichachos, located approximately four hours' drive from the city of Mazatlan, covers 3,954 hectares and overlaps one of the largest high-amplitude contiguous anomalies for gold and base metals in the western Sierra Madre with values up to 6841 ppb Au in fine-fraction, active channel stream sediments.

Rob Birmingham, President and CEO, remarks, "We're proud of the team effort put into acquiring, financing, and driving exploration and development at Picachos. Exploration and diamond drilling efforts led by head geologist Michelle Robinson, have successfully identified an extensive mineralized vein system and numerous targets for follow up investigation, including a large, unexplored copper porphyry target situated in the northern part of the Property. We look forward to implementing a cost-effective approach aimed at further de-risking Picachos and building on the technical success achieved to date."

Copper Discovery

Brigadier has initiated trenching across historic anomalies considered prospective for bulk-tonnage style copper mineralization. Trench BRG-50250 was located approximately 2 kilometres south of a trench cut by Brigadier across several hundred metres of molybdenite in the winter of 2020. The first 50 metres of BRG-50250 have been sampled and analyzed using the field XRF and returned copper values between 0.05% and 1.34% and silver values between 20g/t and 284g/t. These samples will be sent to the lab when the trench is complete and mineralized intervals formally reported after that.

La Gloria Gold Target

Brigadier has completed mapping and sampling of the historic La Gloria underground gold mine in the central part of its Picachos Project. In 2020, Brigadier intercepted La Gloria in DH-BRG-028 between 140 and 141 metres depth where a value of 6.26 g/t gold across 1 metre was returned. This intercept was 112 metres below the historic workings. In the plane of the vein, the known underground workings are 60 to more than 130 metres below topography. Collectively, diamond drilling and the underground workings define the position of La Gloria Vein for more than 240 metres down-dip.

La Gloria stope is accessed by a 105 metre long cross-cut at the 950 metre elevation that trends easterly. The cross-cut and drill hole locations are now tightly controlled by a high-resolution airborne LiDAR survey recently completed by Eagle Mapping. From the portal, La Gloria cross-cut and stope was surveyed using a Brunton and tight chain.

From the mine portal to 71 metres, the host rocks consist of intermediate volcanics that are dark grey-green and contain amygdules that are filled with quartz, chlorite and calcite. The stope was mapped for approximately 35 metres northwest of the cross-cut and 65 metres to the southeast. La Gloria Vein strikes 155°-160° and dips 80°-65° southwesterly.

Samples were cut every metre along the cross-cut to identify any metal bearing veins or veinlets in the hanging wall to La Gloria and clean off the dust for geological mapping. In the stope, the historically worked faces form a honeycomb and samples were cut across the back or working faces where rock conditions were safe for sampling. Fifteen sample lines of one to three samples each were collected across the vein and these have been submitted today to SGS in Durango for gold and base metal analyses. Gold is apparent in panned concentrates of several samples.

Drill Results Pending

Assays are still pending for 518 metres of drilling completed in phase-one, most of which is from a 3-hole fence drilled across El Placer Norte where underground sampling returned grades of up to 12.79 g/t across the Huarache Vein. Perhaps more significantly, a surface trench across the El Placer trend returned values of 0.5 g/t gold across 65 metres in BRG-117154. This was followed by 8 metres of 2.14 g/t gold in adjacent trench BRG-117146.

MONTREAL, May 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — (TSXV: GMN) GobiMin Inc. (“GobiMin” or the “Company”, together with its subsidiaries collectively the “Group”) reports its financial and operating results for the first quarter of 2021. The unaudited condensed interim consolidated financial statements along with quarterly highlights of management’s discussion and analysis have been filed with SEDAR (www.sedar.com) and are also available at the website of the Company (www.gobimin.com).

Financial Highlights

Business Summary and Development

1. Gold Project in Xinjiang

The Company owns a 70% equity interest in Xinjiang Tongyuan Minerals Limited which holds the Sawayaerdun Gold Project (the “Gold Project”) in Xinjiang. Its exploration licence had been renewed with expiry date on August 22, 2021. Its mining licence expired on December 23, 2019 and the renewal process involved multiple approval levels. The application procedures were delayed attributable to the work piled in government authorities during the COVID-19 pandemic and additional time required for finalizing the resources assessment on the Gold Project by an independent valuer. As at the date of this report, approvals from the Department of Natural Resources of all of the county, prefecture and region levels were confirmed. The renewed mining licence is expected to be issued after settlement of the mining royalties amounting to $1.46 million (equivalent to RMB9.56 million).

The on-site industrial test on applying bio-tech methodology on extraction of metals from large-scale samples of gold ores was running behind the schedule attributable to the pandemic in 2020. As suggested by the experts from the Research Institute, three-shift rotation schedule has been implemented to accelerate the test progress in the mine site. According to the analysis results on the ore samples and the immersion gold tests conducted by the Research Institute, arsenic and iron in the ore samples have been successfully removed by oxidation. After the pre-oxidation stage and subject to the analysis result of the samples, the industrial test would enter into the final stage of immersion gold process in late 2021.

For the three months ended March 31, 2021, there was no addition to exploration and evaluation assets. As at March 31, 2021, the Group had a contractual commitment of $1,628,000 for the future development of the Gold Project.

Just because a business does not make any money, does not mean that the stock will go down. For example, although Amazon.com made losses for many years after listing, if you had bought and held the shares since 1999, you would have made a fortune. Nonetheless, only a fool would ignore the risk that a loss making company burns through its cash too quickly.

So, the natural question for Tinka Resources (CVE:TK) shareholders is whether they should be concerned by its rate of cash burn. For the purposes of this article, cash burn is the annual rate at which an unprofitable company spends cash to fund its growth; its negative free cash flow. We'll start by comparing its cash burn with its cash reserves in order to calculate its cash runway.

View our latest analysis for Tinka Resources

When Might Tinka Resources Run Out Of Money?

A cash runway is defined as the length of time it would take a company to run out of money if it kept spending at its current rate of cash burn. In March 2021, Tinka Resources had CA$7.3m in cash, and was debt-free. Looking at the last year, the company burnt through CA$7.8m. So it had a cash runway of approximately 11 months from March 2021. To be frank, this kind of short runway puts us on edge, as it indicates the company must reduce its cash burn significantly, or else raise cash imminently. You can see how its cash balance has changed over time in the image below.

How Is Tinka Resources' Cash Burn Changing Over Time?

Because Tinka Resources isn't currently generating revenue, we consider it an early-stage business. So while we can't look to sales to understand growth, we can look at how the cash burn is changing to understand how expenditure is trending over time. With the cash burn rate up 15% in the last year, it seems that the company is ratcheting up investment in the business over time. However, the company's true cash runway will therefore be shorter than suggested above, if spending continues to increase. Tinka Resources makes us a little nervous due to its lack of substantial operating revenue. So we'd generally prefer stocks from this list of stocks that have analysts forecasting growth.

How Easily Can Tinka Resources Raise Cash?

Since its cash burn is moving in the wrong direction, Tinka Resources shareholders may wish to think ahead to when the company may need to raise more cash. Companies can raise capital through either debt or equity. One of the main advantages held by publicly listed companies is that they can sell shares to investors to raise cash and fund growth. By looking at a company's cash burn relative to its market capitalisation, we gain insight on how much shareholders would be diluted if the company needed to raise enough cash to cover another year's cash burn.

Tinka Resources has a market capitalisation of CA$77m and burnt through CA$7.8m last year, which is 10% of the company's market value. Given that situation, it's fair to say the company wouldn't have much trouble raising more cash for growth, but shareholders would be somewhat diluted.

Is Tinka Resources' Cash Burn A Worry?

On this analysis of Tinka Resources' cash burn, we think its cash burn relative to its market cap was reassuring, while its cash runway has us a bit worried. Even though we don't think it has a problem with its cash burn, the analysis we've done in this article does suggest that shareholders should give some careful thought to the potential cost of raising more money in the future. On another note, Tinka Resources has 3 warning signs (and 1 which is potentially serious) we think you should know about.

Of course Tinka Resources may not be the best stock to buy. So you may wish to see this free collection of companies boasting high return on equity, or this list of stocks that insiders are buying.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Silver Bull Resources, Inc. (OTCQB: SVBL, TSX: SVB) (“Silver Bull”) a mineral exploration company with assets in Kazakhstan and Mexico, is pleased to announce its intent to distribute shares of Arras Minerals Corp. (“Arras Minerals”) to Silver Bull shareholders.

As announced on April 1, 2021, Silver Bull transferred its Kazakh interests, including the Beskauga Option Agreement and the Ekidos and Stepnoe mineral licences, to Arras Minerals, a newly formed British Columbia incorporated company and currently an approximately 88%-owned subsidiary of Silver Bull. In return, Silver Bull received 36 million shares of Arras Minerals.

Silver Bull intends to distribute approximately 34.2 million shares of Arras Minerals to Silver Bull shareholders, which will result in one Arras Minerals share to be distributed to Silver Bull shareholders for each share of Silver Bull held. Upon completion of the distribution, Silver Bull anticipates retaining approximately 1.8 million Arras Minerals shares as a strategic investment, expected to represent approximately 4% of the outstanding Arras Minerals shares at the time of distribution. The Arras Minerals shares are not expected to be listed or posted for trading on any stock exchange immediately following the distribution. Accordingly, the Arras Minerals shares distributed to Silver Bull shareholders, though freely transferable in the United States, may be illiquid until such time as the shares are listed or a trading market develops, if at all. In Canada, shareholders of Arras Minerals will be able to trade their shares only pursuant to an exemption from prospectus requirements.

The proposed distribution of Arras Minerals shares to Silver Bull shareholders does not require shareholder approval, but is subject to certain conditions, including the registration of the Arras Minerals shares under the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and final approval by the Board of Directors of Silver Bull. Silver Bull intends to complete the proposed distribution of the shares before the end of the third quarter of 2021, however the actual timing is subject to receipt of regulatory approvals and the final approval by the Board of Directors of Silver Bull.

Silver Bull will provide an update on record and distribution dates for the proposed distribution of Arras Minerals shares if and when it receives requisite approvals, including regulatory and board approvals.

Summary of Arras Minerals’ Assets

The Beskauga deposit is Arras Minerals’ material property and is an open pittable gold-copper-silver deposit with a NI 43-101 compliant “Indicated” Mineral Resource of 207 million tonnes grading 0.35 g/t gold, 0.23% copper and 1.09 g/t silver for 2.33 million ounces of gold, 476.1 thousand tonnes of copper, and 7.25 million ounces of silver and an “Inferred” Mineral Resource of 147 million tonnes grading 0.33 g/t gold, 0.15% copper and 1.02 g/t silver for 1.56 million ounces of gold, 220.5 thousand tonnes of copper, and 4.82 million ounces of silver.

The constraining pit was optimised and calculated using a net smelter return cut-off based on a price of: $1,500/oz for gold, $2.80/lb for copper, $17.25/oz for silver, and with an average recovery of 81.7% for copper and 51.8% for both gold and silver. Mineralization remains open in all directions as well as at depth.

Cautionary Note to U.S. Investors concerning estimates of Measured, Indicated, and Inferred Resources: This news release uses the terms "measured resources", "indicated resources", and "inferred resources" which are defined in, and required to be disclosed by, NI 43-101. We advise U.S. investors that these terms are not recognized by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") under SEC Industry Guide 7. The estimation of measured, indicated and inferred resources involves greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic feasibility than the estimation of proven and probable reserves. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that measured and indicated mineral resources will be converted into reserves. The estimation of inferred resources involves far greater uncertainty as to their existence and economic viability than the estimation of other categories of resources. U.S. investors are cautioned not to assume that estimates of inferred mineral resources exist, are economically minable, or will be upgraded into measured or indicated mineral resources. Under Canadian securities laws, estimates of inferred mineral resources may not form the basis of feasibility or other economic studies.

Disclosure of "contained ounces" in a resource is permitted disclosure under Canadian regulations, however under SEC Industry Guide 7 the SEC normally only permits issuers to report mineralization that does not constitute "reserves" by SEC standards as in place tonnage and grade without reference to unit measures. Accordingly, the information contained in this news release may not be comparable to similar information made public by U.S. companies that report under SEC Industry Guide 7 and are not subject NI 43-101.

Investment will provide foundation for a sustainable company within the new era for mining and a global move towards green electrification

VANCOUVER, BC, May 25, 2021 /CNW/ – Foran Mining Corp. (TSXV: FOM) (OTCQX: FMCXF) ("Foran" or the "Company") is pleased to announce that it has entered into a letter agreement pursuant to which Fairfax Financial Holdings Limited, through certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, "Fairfax"), will make a strategic CAD$100 million investment in the Company in exchange for the issuance by the Company of common shares, non-voting common shares, and warrants.

Fairfax has agreed to subscribe, on a private placement basis, for CAD$100 million in equity securities of Foran in two tranches (collectively, the "Financing"):

• Tranche 1 – CAD$50 million gross proceeds, comprised of 27,777,778 voting common shares (the "Common Shares") at a price of CAD$1.80 per Common Share, along with warrants to purchase an aggregate of 8,000,000 million Common Shares (the "Warrants"). The Warrants have an exercise price of CAD$2.09 per Common Share and an exercise period of five years.

• Tranche 2 – CAD$50 million gross proceeds, comprised of 27,777,778 non-voting common shares (the "Non-Voting Shares") at CAD$1.80 per Non-Voting Share, along with 8,000,000 Warrants.

The net proceeds of the Financing will be used to rapidly advance the development of the McIlvenna Bay project and centralized mill for the Hanson Lake district as well as further exploration in the Hanson Lake district, enable further investment in key technological and operational research and equipment, and general corporate purposes.

Foran believes the investment by Fairfax represents a significant endorsement of Foran's business model, the quality of its 100% owned McIlvenna Bay deposit and its wider Hanson Lake District, and its vision to build the world's first carbon neutral copper mine. This transaction greatly de-risks the business financially and is expected to bring a multitude of substantive synergies and benefits to Foran shareholders. Foran's resulting cash position of approximately CAD$120M and strategic partnership with Fairfax will enable significantly accelerated development of the McIlvenna Bay project and its phase 1 centralized mill at the profound and prospective Hanson Lake district. Foran believes that Fairfax, like Foran, values integrity, honesty, doing meaningful work in an energetic way, and is proud to partner with Fairfax in addressing the need for carbon neutral materials extraction, and to grow Fairfax's investment in a meaningful, responsible, and disciplined manner.

Foran will continue to focus efforts on arranging the remaining debt component of its project financing, which efforts will be strengthened and supported by new access to Fairfax's global network of business partners. Foran will also continue working with its established banking partners with a focus on exploring potential ESG financial products that could enhance overall economics and investment returns for all stakeholders.

Prem Watsa, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fairfax, said: "Fairfax is delighted to partner with Foran and to support its management team, led by Dan Myerson, in the creation of the world's first carbon neutral copper company. We are excited to invest alongside Pierre Lassonde and Darren Morcombe in a company with an excellent base of assets and a solid strategic plan for development, which we think represents an excellent opportunity for long-term growth and value-creation."

Pierre Lassonde, a key investor in Foran, also commented: "I cannot think of a better partner for any business than Prem and his Fairfax group. This is a wonderful development for Foran which is rewriting the textbook on how to create value in mining. We look forward to building this new age copper company together."

Dan Myerson, Executive Chairman of Foran said, "This investment and partnership is a pivotal moment in our company's short history and one that will shape our future for many years and decades to come, elevating us onto the world-stage. We are honored for this profound vote of confidence, in our vision and strategy, the Foran team, our stakeholders and the province of Saskatchewan and country of Canada.

About the Investment
Closing of the Financing is subject to the receipt of TSX Venture Exchange approval, the settlement of mutually agreeable definitive documentation (including the terms and conditions of the Non-Voting Shares), the receipt of all necessary Foran shareholder approvals, and other customary closing conditions. Further announcements will be made regarding details of the development of the mine at the McIlvenna Bay deposit and the expected closing date of each tranche of the Financing. Fairfax will not receive the right to appoint any members of the board of directors of Foran.

Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accept responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

• Field work to commence in June

• Follow-up diamond drill program to commence this summer

• Further testing of new Cu-Au Bench zone to take place

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – May 25, 2021) – Mountain Boy Minerals Ltd (TSXV: MTB) (OTCQB: MBYMF) (FSE: M9U) ("Mountain Boy" or the "Company") announces that field work will soon commence on the American Creek Project and will include a fully funded drill program focused on the Company's namesake historic Mountain Boy silver mine.

The American Creek Project is a 2,600-hectare property located 20 kilometres north of Stewart. The project is road accessible and a high voltage transmission line passes 5 km to the south.

Initial fieldwork, set to commence mid-June, is intended to refine follow-up drill targets around the High-Grade zone at the Mountain Boy silver mine.

Drilling last year demonstrated that the shallow structures intersected in drill holes are base metal rich and likely represent one of several mineralizing pulses in the epithermal system. This season's drilling will target steeper cross structures and localized ore shoots and will be guided by additional mapping. A detailed structural mapping and 3D modelling initiative will take place before an initial phase I drill program of up to 1500 metres commences.

In 1999 and 2000, 51.6 tonnes of material were extracted from the High-Grade vein and sent to the Cominco smelter in Trail, BC. The documented grades of 13.6 tonnes of this material is 18.854 kilograms per tonne silver, 1.1% zinc and 2.5 % lead (Assessment Report 29066). The exceptional grades demonstrate why this is still such a compelling target.

The current program will include follow-up and channel sampling on the Wolfmoon zone. Bedrock sample 71545 was taken two-kilometers to the north-northwest of the Wolfmoon zone and returned 1,488 grams per tonne silver, 1.14% lead, 0.54% zinc and 3.05 grams per tonne gold, demonstrating the potential for considerable strike length to this style of mineralization (see February 24, 2021 news release).

The Bench zone will also be examined. Mapping and channel sampling of this zone will attempt to determine whether it is part of the epithermal mineralization or a separate mineralizing event. Last field season, surface samples returned gold and copper values including sample 71681 at 4.8 grams per tonne gold, 4.5% copper, and 32 grams per tonne silver (see February 24, 2021 news release).

About Mountain Boy Minerals

Mountain Boy has six active projects spanning 604 square kilometres (60,398 hectares) in the prolific Golden Triangle of northern British Columbia.

1. The flagship American Creek project is centered on the historic Mountain Boy silver mine and is just north of the past producing Red Cliff gold and copper mine (in which the Company holds an interest). The American Creek project is road accessible and 20 km from the deep-water port of Stewart.

2. On the BA property, 178 drill holes have outlined a substantial zone of silver-lead-zinc mineralization located 4 km from the highway.

3. Surprise Creek is interpreted to be hosted by the same prospective stratigraphy as the BA property and hosts multiple occurrences of silver, gold and base metals.

4. On the Theia project, work by Mountain Boy and previous explorers has outlined a silver bearing mineralized trend 500 meters long, highlighted by a recent grab sample that returned 39 kg per tonne silver (1,100 ounces per ton).

5. Southmore is located in the midst of some of the largest deposits in the Golden Triangle. It was explored in the 1980s through the early 1990s, and largely overlooked until Mountain Boy consolidated the property and confirmed the presence of multiple occurrences of gold, copper, lead and zinc.

6. The Telegraph project has a similar geological setting to major gold and copper-gold deposits in the Golden Triangle.

Mountain Boy is funded for the coming field season and plans to advance these projects, including drilling on select project(s).

VANCOUVER, BC, May 25, 2021 /CNW/ – Rokmaster Resources Corp. (TSXV: RKR) (OTCQB: RKMSF) (FSE: 1RR1) ("Rokmaster" or the "Company") is pleased to report that it has commenced its surface diamond drill program at the Revel Ridge Project. The program has been designed to explore the gold-silver-lead-zinc mineralization over an approximate length of seven kilometers of the Revel Ridge Structural Deformation Zone. The initial ~7,000 m first phase will target near surface resource immediately on-strike to both the Main and Yellowjacket Zones, as well as testing several additional high-grade occurrences four to five kilometers north and northwest of the 832 m Level Portal.

John Mirko, President and CEO and Rokmaster, commented: "We are at an exciting juncture as we expand from our very successful underground drill program to drilling from surface. The first phase of our underground drill program strongly confirmed and expanded on the exceptional continuity of the gold rich Main Zone mineralization and the silver-zinc rich Yellowjacket style mineralization. Our geological testing and prospecting team have traced promising surface showings from the 2020 sampling program which identified exposures of gold-silver-lead-zinc mineralization along a seven kilometer strike length, including the Zinc Creek, A&E, and Roseberry Zones. Historical rock and soil geochemical surveys, geological prospecting and limited diamond drill programs all strongly suggest that the probability of expanding both the gold rich Main Zone style mineralization and silver-zinc rich Yellowjacket style mineralization is high."

Final compilation of the assay results from the last nine diamond drillholes of the phase one 2021 underground drill program are currently underway and final results are expected to be available shortly.

The technical information contained in this news release has been prepared in accordance with Canadian regulatory requirements as set out in National Instrument 43-101 and reviewed and approved by Mark Rebagliati, P. Eng., FEC, who is independent of Rokmaster.

OTTAWA, May 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Cornerstone Capital Resources Inc. (“Cornerstone” or “the Company”) (TSXV:CGP) (Frankfurt:GWN1) (Berlin:GWN1) (OTC:CTNXF) is pleased to announce the following drilling update on its Tandayama-America (TAM) porphyry copper-gold mineralized target located 3km north of the Alpala Deposit¹ at its Cascabel copper-gold porphyry joint venture project in northern Ecuador in which Cornerstone has a 15% interest² financed through to completion of a feasibility study plus 6.86% of the shares of joint venture partner and Project operator SolGold Plc, for a total direct and indirect interest in Cascabel of 20.8%.

Figures referenced in this news release can be viewed through the following link: https://cornerstoneresources.com/site/assets/files/5816/nr21-12figures.pdf.

Highlights

• Drilling at the Tandayama-America Porphyry Copper-Gold target at Cascabel has intersected significant copper and gold mineralization.

• Selected highlights of drill hole assays received from Holes 1 to 7 include:

  • Hole 1: 531m @ 0.30% copper equivalent (CuEq)³ (from 220m), including 272m @ 0.44% CuEq (from 350m)

  • Hole 3: 1,040m @ 0.33% CuEq (from 252m), including 350m @ 0.45% CuEq (from 632m)

  • Hole 5: 426m @ 0.37% CuEq (from 218m), including 342m @ 0.43% CuEq (from 230m)

  • Hole 7: 522m @ 0.38% CuEq (from 230m), including 230m @ 0.44% CuEq (from 276m)

• Assay results from drill holes 8-10 are pending, and drilling of Holes 9 and 10 is continuing.

• Mineralization at TAM forms a northwest trending corridor, occupying an area 750m long x 500m wide extending from surface to a depth of over 1,200m. Further drilling aims at defining the extent mineralization towards the northwest, the southeast and at depth where the mineralization remains open.

• Due to the significance of results achieved thus far at TAM, additional diamond drill rigs are to be mobilized to expedite drilling, ahead of a planned National Instrument 43-101 compliant Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate later in 2021.

SolGold Executive Board Member and ENSA President, Jason Ward, commented on the results at TAM:

“Significant copper and gold mineralization at the TAM target will add to the already impressive metal inventory at Alpala. The recent drilling results at TAM are indicative of a significant prospective resource that appears amenable to bulk surface mining methods. This seems likely to have a major beneficial impact on the development of the Cascabel property as a whole and the further upside of a potentially significant deep target beneath TAM is certainly adding excitement to the growing possibilities at Cascabel.”

* The reader is cautioned that there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource at TAM and it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource.

Further Information

The TAM target lies approximately 3km north of the Alpala Deposit, located on the Cascabel concession within Imbabura Province in northern Ecuador. The project area lies approximately 100 km north of the capital city of Quito and approximately 50 km north-northwest of the provincial capital, Ibarra (Figure 1).

Selected highlights of drill hole assays received from Holes 1 to 7 include⁴:

Selected examples of mineralization encountered at TAM to date are provided in Figure 2.

Drilling at TAM continues with three diamond drill rigs and further expansion of the TAM drilling fleet is planned (Figure 3).

Cross sections through the centre of the target are provided in Figure 4.

The intersection of noteworthy porphyry stockwork mineralization encountered in Hole 9 in the deeper portions of the drilling area contains high abundance of B-type quartz-chalcopyrite veining (Figure 5). This intense mineralization hosted within a pre-mineral intrusive breccia host rock suggests that a fluid-rich source intrusion may be intersected through further drilling at depth, and indicates the potential for a deeper bulk underground target that may lie beneath the current drilling area. Further drilling is planned to test for the potential of a deep-rooted porphyry system.

Mineralization at TAM forms a northwest trending corridor, occupying and area 750m long x 500m wide extending from surface to a depth of over 1,200m. The TAM target lies open is several directions:

1. to the northwest and shallow

2. to the southeast from surface to unknown depth, and

3. at depth below the area of current drill testing

The 2021 proposed drilling program focuses on three main factors:

• drilling to define the northwest and southeast limits of mineralization amenable to bulk surface mining methods, and

• drilling to define the depth extent and character of mineralization with potential amenability to bulk underground mining methods, and

• resource infill drilling to increase drill density and geological confidence.

Primary Target Is 1,800 Metre Long Gold Trend A

MIRAMICHI, New Brunswick, May 25, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — SLAM Exploration Ltd. (“SLAM” or the “Company” on TSXV: SXL) is pleased to announce it has commenced the 2021 trenching program on its wholly-owned Menneval gold project located in the mineral-rich province of New Brunswick. Targets include numerous new gold veins discovered in 2020 and potential extensions associated with gold soil trends A to D.

Targets include three veins: No 2, No 18 and No 22 where the Company reported visible gold in 2020. Grab samples from the No 2 vein ranged up to grading 363.00 g/t and up to 11.30 g/t in vein No 22. Multiple sites of visible gold were supported by assay results grading 1.22 to 3,955 g/t gold over widths ranging from 0.04 to 0.12 m thick as reported December 03, 2020. These veins are part of a swarm of gold-bearing veins extending eastward over a strike-length of 1,100 m. This vein system has only been tested intermittently and is open eastward.

The initial trenching targets are gold soil trends A, B, C and D. Trend A is a 150 m wide by of 1,800 m long region of elevated gold ranging from 20 ppb to 206 ppb gold in soils reported on January 19, 2021. Trend B is a 600 m long parallel trend between the high grade Maisie vein and the new gold vein discoveries. Trend C is a 200 m long anomaly ranging from 46 ppb to 102 ppb gold. Trend D is a 700 m long cross-cutting trend. The intersection of gold trends A and D is a priority gold trenching target.

The Menneval Project: The Menneval Gold project is SLAM’s flagship project and the Company intends to focus on testing the strike and depth extent of the swarm of new gold veins discovered in 2020. The expanded property is comprised of 572 mineral claim units covering 12,390 hectares located in northwestern New Brunswick. The Company holds a 100% interest in these claims with the exception of 4 claim units covering 105 hectares that are subject to a 1.5% NSR. The Company can buy down 0.5% of the NSR for $500,000 and it has the right of first refusal on the remaining 1% NSR.

Appalachian Gold Structure Model: The Menneval gold discoveries occur on the flank of a major Appalachian structure known as the Restigouche fault. Most other gold deposits in New Brunswick are associated with similar Appalachian structures such as the Millstream Break, Sawyer Brook and Wheaton Bay faults. Major Appalachian structures are associated with the Valentine, Moosehead, Queensway and many other gold deposits in Newfoundland, with the Haile gold mine in South Carolina and with the Dalradian gold project in Ireland. Other New Brunswick examples supporting this Appalachian gold structure model include gold discoveries by Puma Exploration Inc. (PUMA.V) near the Millstream Break and by Galway Metals Inc. (GWM.V) near the Sawyer Brook fault.

The Company was previously assigned the right to acquire the Project pursuant to a binding memorandum of understanding (the "MOU") with LITH-ARG Acquisition LLC ("LITH-ARG"), as further described in the press release dated March 29, 2021.

The Sal de la Puna Project

The Sal de la Puna Project covers approximately 11,000 hectares of the Pastos Grandes basin located in the Puna region of Salta province at an average elevation of 4,000 metres above sea level. The project hosts a large portion of the Pastos Grandes salar adjacent and south of Millennial Lithium’s (TSX.V:ML) 12,700 hectare Pastos Grandes project and Litica’s Pozuelos-Pastos Grandes project which shares the northern portion of the same salar. Litica is a subsidiary of Latin American leading oil and gas producers PlusPetrol S.A., who acquired LSC Lithium in 2019 giving them ownership of their lithium assets in Argentina. The Sal de la Puna project is also located 50 km north of Lithium X Energy Corp.’s project, which was sold for $265 million in 2018, where Mr. Morales and Mr. Randall were senior executives.

Approximately $22 million has been invested in the property by the current private operators/owners, including approximately $13 million in work completed at Sal de la Puna over the last 5 years. Work included drilling of three wells including a pumping well to around 600 metres below surface, pumping tests, seismic & TEM geophysical surveys. The drilling was carried out on a portion of the Alma Fuerte, one of the nine 100% owned claims.

The SPA

Arena will acquire 100% of the shares on issue in Centaur Resources Holdings Pty Ltd for an approximate aggregate remaining purchase price of USD 14,500,000. The aggregate remaining purchase price takes in consideration a total purchase price of AUD 23,266,341 (approximately USD 17,995,000) (the "Price”) and discounting USD 3,500,000 paid to Centaur by LITH-ARG.

Arena has agreed to advance Centaur an loan of USD 1,000,000, secured by a first ranking charge over Centaur's assets, within 2 business days after the date of the SPA to assist Centaur in delivering the Project on a debt free basis (the "Loan"). The Loan is to be repaid at closing by being credited against the Price.

Closing of the transaction under the SPA is subject to receipt of applicable regulatory approvals, including the approval of the TSX Venture Exchange. It is also subject to, among other things, the shareholders of Centaur voting (by 51% majority) in favour of a resolution to approve the transaction, as well as Arena being satisfied with its ongoing due diligence investigations. Closing of the acquisition of the Project is expected to take place before July 20, 2021, and a further press release will be issued by the Company upon closing.

At closing, the Loan and a deposit of AUD 4,454,791.09 (USD 3,500,000), which was previously paid to Centaur by LITH-ARG, will be credited against the Price. AUD 2,000,000 of the Price will be held in escrow for a period of 12 months after closing to fund the costs of ongoing litigation affecting Centaur Resources PG S.A.S (Sociedad por Acciones Simplificada), being the Argentinian subsidiary entity that owns the Project.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – May 25, 2021) – Forum Energy Metals Corp. (TSXV: FMC) (OTCQB: FDCFF) ("Forum" or "Company") is pleased to announce initial drill results from Rio Tinto Exploration Canada's (RTEC) fourth drill target on Forum's 100% owned Janice Lake copper/silver project in Saskatchewan. RTEC plans to continue its drill program beginning in June to follow up on these results on the Rafuse target.

Assays from the first four holes on the Rafuse target are:

• JANL0022 – No intercept.

• JANL0023 – 0.325% copper and 2.04 g/t silver over 48 metres (19m to 67m) including 1.78% copper and 9.25 g/t silver over 3.15 metres (33m to 36.15m)

• JANL0024 – 0.28% copper and 2.00 g/t silver over 76.5 metres (71.5m to 148m) and 0.20% copper and 1.58 g/t silver over 18 metres (188m to 206m)

• JANL0025 – 0.16% copper and 1.74 g/t silver over 8 metres (21m to 29m)

Ken Wheatley, Forum's Vice President, Exploration stated, "We are encouraged that thick intervals of copper mineralization with a higher grade section of +1% copper have been intersected from surface to a depth of 200 metres. Rio Tinto plans to continue drilling along the remaining one and half kilometres of strike potential at Rafuse this summer. Thick intervals of copper mineralization have now been intersected by drilling for over 5 kilometres on the property on four different targets."

This is RTEC's second drill campaign on the 52 kilometre long Janice Lake property. RTEC drilled 5,209 metres in 21 holes in 2019 on three targets – Jansem, Janice and Kaz. Nine holes for a total of 2,330 metres were drilled in February and March 2021 on the Rafuse target, a 2.8 kilometre long priority target of surface copper mineralization. Three drill fences at 200 metre spacings for a total strike length of 650 metres have been tested (Figure 1). Further results from the remaining five holes are expected in the coming weeks.

Figure 2 is a cross section of the first drill fence which illustrates one copper interval ranging in thickness from 48 metres to 76.5 metres starting from surface to a depth of 150 metres and a second copper interval of 18 metres starting at 200 metres, both of which are open at depth.

Quality Control/ Quality Assurance

Core samples were sawed in half, keeping the half with the reference line for orientated core in the box. Samples averaged 2 metres in length through the mineralized zone, 4 metres in length in the unmineralized zone, however these lengths varied depending on stratigraphy, alteration or mineralization. Standards were introduced after every 20^th sample, using a high grade, low grade or unmineralized, depending on the surrounding core. Duplicates were also introduced on every 20^th sample, quartering the core. Blanks were used for the first sample of the hole and at the beginning and end of a mineralized interval, using certified rose quartz. A 4-acid digestion was used on the samples at ALS lab in Vancouver, followed by analysis by ICP-MS (the ME-MS61L package).

Ken Wheatley, P.Geo., Forum's VP, Exploration and Qualified Person under National Instrument 43-101, has reviewed and approved the contents of this news release.

CONFERENCE CALL INFORMATION

FORUM will host a conference call after market on May 25^th, 2021 at 1pm PST / 4pm EST with CEO Rick Mazur and VP Exploration Ken Wheatley to go over the drill results and a technical and market overview of the Janice Lake Copper Joint Venture with Rio Tinto.

There's no doubt that money can be made by owning shares of unprofitable businesses. For example, although Amazon.com made losses for many years after listing, if you had bought and held the shares since 1999, you would have made a fortune. But the harsh reality is that very many loss making companies burn through all their cash and go bankrupt.

So, the natural question for Rockhaven Resources (CVE:RK) shareholders is whether they should be concerned by its rate of cash burn. In this article, we define cash burn as its annual (negative) free cash flow, which is the amount of money a company spends each year to fund its growth. The first step is to compare its cash burn with its cash reserves, to give us its 'cash runway'.

View our latest analysis for Rockhaven Resources

How Long Is Rockhaven Resources' Cash Runway?

A company's cash runway is the amount of time it would take to burn through its cash reserves at its current cash burn rate. As at March 2021, Rockhaven Resources had cash of CA$4.7m and no debt. Looking at the last year, the company burnt through CA$639k. That means it had a cash runway of about 7.4 years as of March 2021. While this is only one measure of its cash burn situation, it certainly gives us the impression that holders have nothing to worry about. You can see how its cash balance has changed over time in the image below.

How Is Rockhaven Resources' Cash Burn Changing Over Time?

Because Rockhaven Resources isn't currently generating revenue, we consider it an early-stage business. Nonetheless, we can still examine its cash burn trajectory as part of our assessment of its cash burn situation. Over the last year its cash burn actually increased by 35%, which suggests that management are increasing investment in future growth, but not too quickly. However, the company's true cash runway will therefore be shorter than suggested above, if spending continues to increase. Rockhaven Resources makes us a little nervous due to its lack of substantial operating revenue. We prefer most of the stocks on this list of stocks that analysts expect to grow.

Can Rockhaven Resources Raise More Cash Easily?

Given its cash burn trajectory, Rockhaven Resources shareholders may wish to consider how easily it could raise more cash, despite its solid cash runway. Generally speaking, a listed business can raise new cash through issuing shares or taking on debt. Commonly, a business will sell new shares in itself to raise cash and drive growth. By looking at a company's cash burn relative to its market capitalisation, we gain insight on how much shareholders would be diluted if the company needed to raise enough cash to cover another year's cash burn.

Rockhaven Resources' cash burn of CA$639k is about 2.3% of its CA$28m market capitalisation. That means it could easily issue a few shares to fund more growth, and might well be in a position to borrow cheaply.

Is Rockhaven Resources' Cash Burn A Worry?

As you can probably tell by now, we're not too worried about Rockhaven Resources' cash burn. For example, we think its cash runway suggests that the company is on a good path. Although its increasing cash burn does give us reason for pause, the other metrics we discussed in this article form a positive picture overall. Looking at all the measures in this article, together, we're not worried about its rate of cash burn; the company seems well on top of its medium-term spending needs. Taking an in-depth view of risks, we've identified 2 warning signs for Rockhaven Resources that you should be aware of before investing.

Of course Rockhaven Resources may not be the best stock to buy. So you may wish to see this free collection of companies boasting high return on equity, or this list of stocks that insiders are buying.

We aim to bring you long-term focused analysis driven by fundamental data. Note that our analysis may not factor in the latest price-sensitive company announcements or qualitative material.

  • 12 m of prospective ultramafic (“UM”) or ultramafic-derived rock transected in each trench, with 115 samples submitted for assay;

• Extensive geological mapping conducted at the Santo Amaro, Trapia and Cana Brava target areas:

  • 1,552 geological mapping points at 8 property-wide target areas

  • 139 rock selected grab samples submitted for assay;

2021 Drill Program

ValOre’s 2021 drill program is now fully underway with two core rigs and one RC rig mobilized to the Trapia 1 target area. The primary focus of this year’s program is resource expansion and pre-resource target advancement, with at least nine property-wide targets selected for drilling. CLICK HERE for more information regarding the 2021 exploration program at Pedra Branca, and CLICK HERE for Figure 1, showing a regional map of 2021 drill targets.

2021 drilling at Trapia 1 has intercepted the target ultramafic intrusion in the first three diamond drill holes drilled to date, including a 75.70 m interval from 134.95 m hole depth (~117 m vertical) in DD21TU21. Two separate chromitite reef horizons were observed within the sequence, indicating a strong potential for high-grade PGE mineralization. This hole is stepped out 100 m down-dip to the east from 2020 drill hole DD20TU12, which graded 100.42 m at 0.76 g/t 2PGE+Au from 93.15 m. Core logging and sampling is in progress.

Drill hole DD21TU22 stepped out 100 m down-dip to the east from 2020 drill hole DD20TU20, which graded 76.74 m at 1.25 g/t 2PGE+Au from 176.81 m, including 30.55 m at 2.33 g/t 2PGE+Au from 223.00 m. The target UM intrusion was intercepted for 73.10 m in DD21TU22, from 172.80 m hole depth (~149 m vertical), with three separate chromitite reef horizons encountered within the UM package, including a 1.25 m reef at 201.60 (~174 m vertical). Core logging and sampling is in progress.

Drill hole DD21TU23 stepped out 100 m down-dip to the east from 2020 drill hole DD20TU13, which graded 61.85 m at 0.81 g/t 2PGE+Au from 217.15, including 2.45 m at 9.42 g/t 2PGE+Au from 221.20 m. The target UM has been intersected in hole DD21TU23 at 207.00 m depth (~179 m vertical), and drilling is ongoing at ~240 m, still within the mineralized UM sequence. Two chromitite reef horizons have been intersected within the first 30 m of the UM intrusion.

2021 RC drilling is testing for extensions of mineralization along strike at Trapia 1 and the up-dip extension of mineralization west of 2020 drilling. RC drill hole RC21TU04 was collared 170 m along strike to the west-southwest from the nearest historical resource drillhole and intercepted the target intrusion from 42 m hole depth (36 m vertical). The hole was lost at 78 m depth within the UM sequence, which remains open in all directions. The RC chips have been logged, sampled, and submitted for assay to SGS Vespasiano, Minas Gerais.

2021 Trado^® Auger Program

ValOre continues to utilize the Trado^® auger drill to test and advance property-wide exploration targets at Pedra Branca. To date this year, 226 m have been drilled in 75 holes at 4 target areas, with 233 samples submitted for assay. CLICK HERE for news release dated March 23, 2021 and CLICK HERE for news release dated April 26, 2021, for highlights of the 2021 Trado^® auger program.

2021 Trenching Program

Two additional trenches at the Santo Amaro South target area have been completed to test for continuity of PGE mineralization between 2021 trenches TRSAS01 (20 m grading 1.06 g/t 2PGE+Au) and TRSAS03 (77 m grading 0.20 g/t 2PGE+Au) along 400 m of prospective geological strike length. CLICK HERE for news release dated March 23, 2021 for a summary of the Q1 2021 trenching results at Santo Amaro South.

Trench TR21SAS04, situated 260 m north of TR21SAS03, was 98 m in length and intercepted 12 m of UM/UMD rock. 30 m to the west-southwest, the 38 m long TR21SAS05 intercepted 12 m of UM/UMD rock. 115 total samples have been submitted for assay.

Vancouver, British Columbia–(Newsfile Corp. – May 25, 2021) – IMPACT Silver Corp. (TSXV: IPT) ("IMPACT" or the "Company") announces its financial and operating results for the first quarter ended March 30, 2021.

The Company reported $5.4 million in revenue for the first quarter of 2021, a 57% improvement year over year from Q1 2020's revenue of $3.4 million. Cash provided by operating activities improved to $1.3 million from $0.7 million in Q1 2020. Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, amortization, & share-based payments) increased 220% from $0.5 million in Q1 2020 to $1.6 million.

Mine operating earnings before amortization and depletion in Q1 2021 improved to $1.9 million from $0.3 million in 2020. Operating activities in Q1 2021 generated cash flows of $1.3 million compared to $0.7 million in 2020. The net loss for quarter was $0.3 million compared to Q1 2020 of $0.1 million, after a $0.9 million non-cash accounting provision for share-based payments to employees and consultants of IMPACT.

Fred Davidson, President & CEO of IMPACT, stated, "In Q1 2021, we witnessed a rush to silver from retail investors due to online message board rallies and zero commission platforms. The resulting silver squeeze took silver to recent highs which has benefited our bottom-line and also brought in attention to a sector that has been under-allocated by retail investors since 2011.

"While we cannot plan our business around online fueled rallies and short-term blips, IMPACT continues to be one of the purest silver miners with a 90%+ revenue leverage to silver prices. It is our plan in 2021 that with ongoing production efficiency improvements and exploration plans, we will continue to shape IMPACT into the premier silver exploration and production play for investors. Now that cash flow is positive and metal prices relatively stabilized, we aim to explore and unlock further value from our land package in 2021."

Q1 2021 Financial Overview

• Revenue for Q1 2021 was $5.4 million, an increase of 57% from 2020 of $3.4 million.

• Adjusted EBITDA was $1.6 million for quarter, another large increase over $0.5 million for comparable period in 2020.

• Mine operating earnings before amortization and depletion for Q1 2021 were $1.9 million, improving from $0.3 million in 2020.

• Net loss for the quarter was $0.3 million after a $0.9 million non-cash provision for share-based payments, compared to Q1 2020 net loss of $0.1 million.

• Net working capital for the Company at March 31, 2021 was $21.9 compared to of $3.4 million in 2020, a stark improvement year over year.

• The Company has no long-term debt.

Q1 2021 Production Overview

• Throughput at the mill was 36,413 tonnes milled in Q1 2021 compared to 39,537 tonnes in 2020 as the focus on underground development resulted in fewer tonnes mined, and the capacity at the plant was reduced for improvements to the flotation circuit.

• Average mill feed grade for silver was 162 grams per tonne (g/t) in Q1 2021, a decrease of 5% from 170 g/t in Q1 2020 due to the mining of lower grade but higher margin material.

• Q1 2021 silver production was 156,889 ounces (2020 – 178,994 ounces).

The rise in silver prices largely offset slightly lower tonnage and grade in 2021, and as a result has generated strong cash flow for the Company. Revenue per tonne sold was $124.17 in Q1 2021, an increase of over 46% from same period 2020 at $84.92.

Direct costs per production tonne were $75.45 in Q1 2021, no significant change from 2020's comparative period of $75.16, affirming that cost controls and efficiency implementation remain strong. During the quarter, a substantial underground development program at the Guadalupe mine continued adding track at the 195 level, which will help improve long-term efficiencies from that mine. The near-term cost per tonne is anticipated to increase in Q2 2021 as exploration and development at Guadalupe picks up.

Exploration And Development Plans

In the first three months of 2021, IMPACT announced the purchase of a surface and an underground drill with plans to drill 10,000 metres on both near mine and other exploration targets (see IMPACT news release dated February 1, 2021).

On further exploration news, fieldwork was highlighted by continued exploration on the north and south extensions of the Veta Negra Mine, trenching on the bulk tonnage gold target at Manto America in the central part of the district and exploration on the northwest (Pachuqueno) extensions of the Guadalupe Mine. The Company also commissioned Condor Consulting, Inc. to review and carry out a modern interpretation of a large geophysical database collected in the 1990's over the Mamatla-Capire Mine area to identify exploration targets. (see IMPACT news dated May 12, 2021).

A recorded conference call reviewing the financial and production results of the quarter ended March 30, 2021 will be available on the Company website on May 26, 2021 at www.impactsilver.com/s/ConferenceCalls.asp.

The big shareholder groups in Peel Mining Limited (ASX:PEX) have power over the company. Generally speaking, as a company grows, institutions will increase their ownership. Conversely, insiders often decrease their ownership over time. I quite like to see at least a little bit of insider ownership. As Charlie Munger said 'Show me the incentive and I will show you the outcome.

Peel Mining is not a large company by global standards. It has a market capitalization of AU$138m, which means it wouldn't have the attention of many institutional investors. Our analysis of the ownership of the company, below, shows that institutions are noticeable on the share registry. Let's take a closer look to see what the different types of shareholders can tell us about Peel Mining.

See our latest analysis for Peel Mining

What Does The Institutional Ownership Tell Us About Peel Mining?

Many institutions measure their performance against an index that approximates the local market. So they usually pay more attention to companies that are included in major indices.

As you can see, institutional investors have a fair amount of stake in Peel Mining. This implies the analysts working for those institutions have looked at the stock and they like it. But just like anyone else, they could be wrong. When multiple institutions own a stock, there's always a risk that they are in a 'crowded trade'. When such a trade goes wrong, multiple parties may compete to sell stock fast. This risk is higher in a company without a history of growth. You can see Peel Mining's historic earnings and revenue below, but keep in mind there's always more to the story.

We note that hedge funds don't have a meaningful investment in Peel Mining. The company's largest shareholder is Perth Capital Pty Ltd, with ownership of 9.4%. St Barbara Limited is the second largest shareholder owning 9.4% of common stock, and Paradice Investment Management Pty Ltd. holds about 5.5% of the company stock. Furthermore, CEO Robert Tyson is the owner of 1.9% of the company's shares.

A closer look at our ownership figures suggests that the top 13 shareholders have a combined ownership of 50% implying that no single shareholder has a majority.

Researching institutional ownership is a good way to gauge and filter a stock's expected performance. The same can be achieved by studying analyst sentiments. As far I can tell there isn't analyst coverage of the company, so it is probably flying under the radar.

Insider Ownership Of Peel Mining

The definition of an insider can differ slightly between different countries, but members of the board of directors always count. The company management answer to the board and the latter should represent the interests of shareholders. Notably, sometimes top-level managers are on the board themselves.

I generally consider insider ownership to be a good thing. However, on some occasions it makes it more difficult for other shareholders to hold the board accountable for decisions.

It seems insiders own a significant proportion of Peel Mining Limited. Insiders have a AU$21m stake in this AU$138m business. This may suggest that the founders still own a lot of shares. You can click here to see if they have been buying or selling.

General Public Ownership

The general public, with a 43% stake in the company, will not easily be ignored. While this size of ownership may not be enough to sway a policy decision in their favour, they can still make a collective impact on company policies.

Private Company Ownership

We can see that Private Companies own 18%, of the shares on issue. Private companies may be related parties. Sometimes insiders have an interest in a public company through a holding in a private company, rather than in their own capacity as an individual. While it's hard to draw any broad stroke conclusions, it is worth noting as an area for further research.

Public Company Ownership

We can see that public companies hold 14% of the Peel Mining shares on issue. This may be a strategic interest and the two companies may have related business interests. It could be that they have de-merged. This holding is probably worth investigating further.

Next Steps:

It's always worth thinking about the different groups who own shares in a company. But to understand Peel Mining better, we need to consider many other factors. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk. We've identified 4 warning signs with Peel Mining (at least 3 which don't sit too well with us) , and understanding them should be part of your investment process.

Sherritt International Corporation (TSE:S) shareholders might be concerned after seeing the share price drop 22% in the last quarter. Despite this, the stock is a strong performer over the last year, no doubt about that. We're very pleased to report the share price shot up 240% in that time. So some might not be surprised to see the price retrace some. The real question is whether the business is trending in the right direction.

View our latest analysis for Sherritt International

Sherritt International wasn't profitable in the last twelve months, it is unlikely we'll see a strong correlation between its share price and its earnings per share (EPS). Arguably revenue is our next best option. Generally speaking, companies without profits are expected to grow revenue every year, and at a good clip. As you can imagine, fast revenue growth, when maintained, often leads to fast profit growth.

Sherritt International actually shrunk its revenue over the last year, with a reduction of 13%. We're a little surprised to see the share price pop 240% in the last year. This is a good example of how buyers can push up prices even before the fundamental metrics show much growth. Of course, it could be that the market expected this revenue drop.

The graphic below depicts how earnings and revenue have changed over time (unveil the exact values by clicking on the image).

We consider it positive that insiders have made significant purchases in the last year. Having said that, most people consider earnings and revenue growth trends to be a more meaningful guide to the business. So it makes a lot of sense to check out what analysts think Sherritt International will earn in the future (free profit forecasts).

A Different Perspective

We're pleased to report that Sherritt International shareholders have received a total shareholder return of 240% over one year. That certainly beats the loss of about 5% per year over the last half decade. The long term loss makes us cautious, but the short term TSR gain certainly hints at a brighter future. It's always interesting to track share price performance over the longer term. But to understand Sherritt International better, we need to consider many other factors. Consider for instance, the ever-present spectre of investment risk. We've identified 1 warning sign with Sherritt International , and understanding them should be part of your investment process.

Metals Exploration plc (LON:MTL) shares have had a really impressive month, gaining 49% after a shaky period beforehand. Longer-term shareholders would be thankful for the recovery in the share price since it's now virtually flat for the year after the recent bounce.

Although its price has surged higher, given close to half the companies in the United Kingdom have price-to-earnings ratios (or "P/E's") above 26x, you may still consider Metals Exploration as a highly attractive investment with its 6.2x P/E ratio. However, the P/E might be quite low for a reason and it requires further investigation to determine if it's justified.

With earnings that are retreating more than the market's of late, Metals Exploration has been very sluggish. It seems that many are expecting the dismal earnings performance to persist, which has repressed the P/E. If you still like the company, you'd want its earnings trajectory to turn around before making any decisions. Or at the very least, you'd be hoping the earnings slide doesn't get any worse if your plan is to pick up some stock while it's out of favour.

Keen to find out how analysts think Metals Exploration's future stacks up against the industry? In that case, our free report is a great place to start.

What Are Growth Metrics Telling Us About The Low P/E?

There's an inherent assumption that a company should far underperform the market for P/E ratios like Metals Exploration's to be considered reasonable.

Taking a look back first, the company's earnings per share growth last year wasn't something to get excited about as it posted a disappointing decline of 29%. At least EPS has managed not to go completely backwards from three years ago in aggregate, thanks to the earlier period of growth. So it appears to us that the company has had a mixed result in terms of growing earnings over that time.

Turning to the outlook, the next three years should generate growth of 56% per year as estimated by the sole analyst watching the company. Meanwhile, the rest of the market is forecast to only expand by 19% per year, which is noticeably less attractive.

With this information, we find it odd that Metals Exploration is trading at a P/E lower than the market. It looks like most investors are not convinced at all that the company can achieve future growth expectations.

What We Can Learn From Metals Exploration's P/E?

Shares in Metals Exploration are going to need a lot more upward momentum to get the company's P/E out of its slump. It's argued the price-to-earnings ratio is an inferior measure of value within certain industries, but it can be a powerful business sentiment indicator.

Our examination of Metals Exploration's analyst forecasts revealed that its superior earnings outlook isn't contributing to its P/E anywhere near as much as we would have predicted. There could be some major unobserved threats to earnings preventing the P/E ratio from matching the positive outlook. It appears many are indeed anticipating earnings instability, because these conditions should normally provide a boost to the share price.

You need to take note of risks, for example – Metals Exploration has 5 warning signs (and 2 which are significant) we think you should know about.

Of course, you might find a fantastic investment by looking at a few good candidates. So take a peek at this free list of companies with a strong growth track record, trading on a P/E below 20x.

On May 21, we issued an updated research report on Wheaton Precious Metals Corp. WPM. The company is poised to gain from ongoing focus on mine expansions, acquisitions as well as a solid financial position.

Wheaton reported first-quarter 2021 adjusted earnings per share of 36 cents, suggesting year-over-year growth of 53.6%. The bottom-line figure came in line with the Zacks Consensus Estimate. The company generated revenues of a record $324 million during the reported quarter, up 27% on a year-over-year basis. The top line also beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $313 million.

Upbeat Production Estimates

Wheaton generates revenues primarily from the sale of precious metals, including gold, silver and palladium. The company has a diversified portfolio of high-quality, long-life assets. It projects production within 720,000 GEOs (Gold Equivalent Ounces) and 780,000 GEOs for 2021, which indicates a year-over-year jump of 12% at the mid-point.

For the current year, Wheaton estimates gold production between 370,000 ounces and 400,000 ounces. The mid-point of the guidance suggests a 5% year-over-year increase.

Silver production for 2021 is projected at 22.5-24 million ounces, calling for a 1% year-over-year rise at the mid-point. This will be driven by higher silver ounces from Cozamin and Keno Hill.

Production of palladium & cobalt is expected in the range of 40,000 GEOs to 45,000 GEOs for 2021. The company has also issued a five-year (2021-2025) guidance, averaging 810,000 GEOs.

Mine Expansion Moves to Drive Growth

Vale S. A’s VALE investment in the Salobo III mine expansion was 73% complete at the end of first-quarter 2021. This expansion will increase the mill throughput capacity by 50% and add to gold production in 2023. Per the precious metals purchase agreement with Vale, effective Jan 1, 2021, Wheaton reported the first production of cobalt from Vale’s Voisey's Bay mine in Canada.

Palladium and gold production from Stillwater will likely increase on the ramp-up of the Sibanye Stillwater's Blitz project, which is expected to reach full capacity in 2024. At Constancia, Hudbay Minerals HBM announced that it has completed the final land user agreement for the Pampacancha deposit. Hudbay now has full access to the site and has begun pit development activities. These expansion projects are anticipated to be growth drivers for Wheaton in the coming years.

Acquisitions to Boost Growth

Wheaton is focused on adding additional production capacity from high-quality accretive metals. Moreover, its business model focuses on reducing risk, while leveraging higher commodity prices. Wheaton remains active on the corporate development front and focused on growing high-quality portfolio of assets.

On Feb 19, Wheaton closed its precious metals purchase agreement with Capstone Mining Corp. to purchase a 50% silver stream from the Cozamin Mine located in Zacatecas, Mexico. On Apr 15, the company wrapped up the deal with Aris Gold Corporation to acquire 6.5% of the gold production and 100% of the silver production from the Marmato Project located in Colombia. On Mar 25, the company entered into an agreement with Capstone to purchase 100% of the payable gold production from the Santo Domingo project located in the Atacama Region, Chile.

Strong Financial Position

The company fully paid a revolving credit facility of $2 billion during the first quarter. Wheaton had $191 million of cash in hand at the end of the first quarter with no outstanding debt. Backed by Wheaton’s cash position, sales volume, revenues and strong operating cash flows, the company announced a quarterly dividend of 14 cents per share, representing an increase of 40% year over year. This is the company’s third quarterly dividend hike in a row. It also provides the flexibility to acquire additional accretive precious metals.

However, there are a few factors that might impede growth in the near term.

The company expects unfavorable impact of the pandemic to dent its results until the situation stabilizes. Even though gold prices have been higher on a year-over-year basis, it has lost 0.7% of its value, year to date. In fact, yellow metal prices had dropped below $1,700 an ounce earlier this year on successful vaccine roll-out and massive stimulus package. The company’s GEOs production guidance assumes gold prices of $1,800 per ounce. If gold prices dip below this level further, this might put the guidance at risk.

Price Performance

Shares of Wheaton have gained 25.1% over the past three months compared with the industry’s growth of 25%.

Altius Minerals Corporation (TSE:ALS) stock is about to trade ex-dividend in 3 days. The ex-dividend date is one business day before a company's record date, which is the date on which the company determines which shareholders are entitled to receive a dividend. The ex-dividend date is important because any transaction on a stock needs to have been settled before the record date in order to be eligible for a dividend. This means that investors who purchase Altius Minerals' shares on or after the 28th of May will not receive the dividend, which will be paid on the 15th of June.

The company's next dividend payment will be CA$0.05 per share. Last year, in total, the company distributed CA$0.20 to shareholders. Calculating the last year's worth of payments shows that Altius Minerals has a trailing yield of 1.2% on the current share price of CA$16.77. We love seeing companies pay a dividend, but it's also important to be sure that laying the golden eggs isn't going to kill our golden goose! So we need to investigate whether Altius Minerals can afford its dividend, and if the dividend could grow.

Check out our latest analysis for Altius Minerals

If a company pays out more in dividends than it earned, then the dividend might become unsustainable – hardly an ideal situation. Altius Minerals paid a dividend last year despite being unprofitable. This might be a one-off event, but it's not a sustainable state of affairs in the long run. Considering the lack of profitability, we also need to check if the company generated enough cash flow to cover the dividend payment. If cash earnings don't cover the dividend, the company would have to pay dividends out of cash in the bank, or by borrowing money, neither of which is long-term sustainable. It distributed 37% of its free cash flow as dividends, a comfortable payout level for most companies.

Have Earnings And Dividends Been Growing?

Businesses with strong growth prospects usually make the best dividend payers, because it's easier to grow dividends when earnings per share are improving. If business enters a downturn and the dividend is cut, the company could see its value fall precipitously. Altius Minerals was unprofitable last year, but at least the general trend suggests its earnings have been improving over the past five years. Even so, an unprofitable company whose business does not quickly recover is usually not a good candidate for dividend investors.

Another key way to measure a company's dividend prospects is by measuring its historical rate of dividend growth. Altius Minerals has delivered 16% dividend growth per year on average over the past six years. Both per-share earnings and dividends have both been growing rapidly in recent times, which is great to see.

We update our analysis on Altius Minerals every 24 hours, so you can always get the latest insights on its financial health, here.

Final Takeaway

From a dividend perspective, should investors buy or avoid Altius Minerals? We're a bit uncomfortable with it paying a dividend while being loss-making. However, we note that the dividend was covered by cash flow. Overall, it's not a bad combination, but we feel that there are likely more attractive dividend prospects out there.
