Asthe mining industry once again converges in Timmins for the Canadian Mining Expo, 2025, we are reminded of the pivotal role this region plays in shaping the future of mining in Canada. This premier event, renowned as the largest annual mining trade show in eastern Canada, offers an unparalleled platform for industry professionals to showcase innovations, discuss emerging trends, and foster collaborations that drive the sector forward.

In today’s chaotic and rapidly evolving global landscape, the significance of critical minerals has surged to the forefront of international discourse. These essential elements are indispensable for modern technologies, underpinning advancements in renewable energy, electric vehicles, and various high-tech

applications. Ensuring a stable and sustainable supply of these minerals is not only vital for technological progress but also for economic resilience and national security. Timmins and the broader northern Ontario and northwestern Quebec regions are uniquely positioned to contribute significantly to this global demand. The recent acquisition of Newmont’s Porcupine Complex by Discovery Silver marks the dawn of a new mining era in the Timmins area. Spearheaded by Tony Makuch, a native of Timmins and former CEO of Lake Shore Gold, this strategic move will build on one of Canada’s most prolific gold camps, blending rich historical significance with forward-looking aspirations. To Ontario’s new Minister of Energy & Mines, Stephen Lecce, we say, welcome to the heart of Ontario’s resource-based economy. Canadian Trade-Ex’s two mining shows, Timmins and this Fall’s show in Thunder

Bay, are the perfect launchpads for you and your Ministry staff to make good on promises started by Premier Doug Ford and former Mines Minister George Pirie who, along with former Northern Development Minister Greg Rickford have been advocating for a commitment to accelerated permitting processes while honouring the duty to consult with First Nations.

The Canadian Mining Expo serves as a nexus for industry stakeholders to explore these developments, exchange insights, and forge partnerships that will shape the future of mining. We encourage all readers of this magazine and attendees of the expo to seize this opportunity to connect, collaborate, and contribute to the ongoing evolution of our industry. Together, we can navigate the challenges and harness the opportunities that lie ahead, ensuring a prosperous and sustainable future for mining in Canada and beyond.

ONTARIO ENERGY & MINES MINISTER Sets Bold Tone for North

“ Speed will be a fundamental priority. And we will not compromise on environmental protections or Indigenous partnerships—both can be true. ”

Ontario’s new Minister of Energy and Mines, Stephen Lecce, is wasting no time making waves.

“We are proud to invest in pre-development work on two large-scale hydroelectric projects,” said Minister Lecce at an early April hydro-electric announcement in Timmins. “The first is going to deliver over 430 megawatts

of clean power—enough for 430,000 homes. This is going to secure our affordable energy future.”

Lecce made the comments during a joint announcement in Northern Ontario, standing alongside outgoing Mines Minister George Pirie, who now takes on the newly created role of Minister of Northern Economic Development and Growth. Lecce was clear: energy and mining are now two halves of the same coin.

“This is going to keep our costs down for families,” said Lecce. “And it’s going to help us lean into Canadian-made materials. We buy more than 90 percent of our hydro components right here in Canada. This is an investment in Canadian workers—and in the people of Northern Ontario.”

The hydroelectric projects will be developed on the Mattagami River system, an initiative backed by Indigenous leaders and long championed by Minister Pirie. “I want to thank the Chiefs and George Pirie for being strong advocates for this community,” said Lecce.

Asked how he views the shift from education to mines and energy, Lecce said the Premier has intentionally linked the two ministries to unlock what he calls the “full potential of the North.” “George and I have a close personal relationship, and the way the Premier designed this, it ensures we can secure the energy and the infrastructure needed to develop the prosperity corridor,” said Lecce. “I’ll be leaning on George for advice—probably too much. He may want to block my number,” Lecce joked.

But jokes aside, Lecce made it clear that speed and collaboration will define his time in office. “It cannot take 17 years to open a gold mine. It can’t take 20 years to negotiate a transmission corridor. We need to move at the speed of the market and seize this massive opportunity.”

Lecce took direct aim at geopolitical pressures facing the country, referencing the U.S.’s increasing protectionism and calls from Donald Trump to curb Canadian imports. “I’m not threatened by President Trump—I see this as an opportunity. The U.S. has a binary choice. They either buy from China or they buy from us, a democratic, dependable ally.”

He added that Canada’s shared values and history with the U.S. give it a competitive edge, if the country is willing to act. “We’re one extended family. Maybe a dysfunctional one, but a family,” Lecce said with a grin.

He also echoed long-standing concerns from both Pirie and his predecessor Greg Rickford about the sluggish permitting system that stymies resource development. “Speed will be a fundamental priority. And we will not compromise on environmental protections or Indigenous partnerships—both can be true.”

Lecce’s message was clear: Northern Ontario is open for business, and the province is ready to move.

AGNICO EAGLE expands holdings with strategic acquisitions and record exploration results

Agnico Eagle continues to make bold moves to consolidate its growing footprint on the gold sector in Canada and beyond with a strengthened portfolio, deeper partnerships, and a record-setting mineral reserve base.

The company completed the acquisition of all outstanding shares of O3 Mining Inc., making it a wholly owned subsidiary. The move, finalized through an amalgamation with Agnico Eagle Abitibi Acquisition Corp., bolsters Agnico Eagle’s position in the prolific Abitibi greenstone belt and adds O3’s key assets— most notably, the Marban Alliance project in Québec— to its growing list of development-stage projects. O3 shareholders received $1.67 in cash per share under the terms of the deal. With the transaction complete, O3 shares are expected to be delisted from the TSX Venture Exchange.

“The Marban deposit is expected to be complementary to other ‘fill-the-mill’ opportunities at Canadian Malartic,” said Agnico Eagle CEO Ammar Al-Joundi in an earlier statement. “We are looking forward to working with our partners and all stakeholders in the region as we continue to advance this opportunity.”

As part of its broader growth strategy, Agnico Eagle also announced a $2.7 million strategic investment in Cartier Resources Inc., subscribing for over 20 million units in a private placement. Each unit includes a common share and a warrant exercisable at $0.18 for five years. The deal increases Agnico’s ownership stake in Cartier to approximately 27.7% on an undiluted basis and up to 32.2% on a partially diluted basis. The investment comes with revised investor rights, including an expanded right to board representation and the ability to maintain a 32% ownership threshold in future financings.

These deals align with Agnico’s ongoing consolidation strategy across the Abitibi region and its commitment to long-life, low-cost operations.

RECORD YEAR FOR RESERVES AND EXPLORATION

Agnico Eagle reported its year-end 2024 mineral reserves and resources, and the numbers reveal a company firing on all cylinders. Gold mineral reserves rose to a record 54.3 million ounces, a 0.9% year-over-year increase, driven by strong replacement rates at existing operations and major new declarations at Upper Beaver and Wasamac. “Through our optimization of drilling productivity and innovation efforts, we successfully reduced exploration costs by approximately 8%,” said Guy Gosselin, Executive Vice-President of Exploration. “The exploration program continued to yield exciting results at our key mines and pipeline projects, which drove the replacement of our mineral reserves and the increase in our inferred mineral resources by nearly 10%.”

HIGHLIGHTS INCLUDE:

Detour Lake: Underground exploration delivered 1.87 million ounces in new indicated resources and 3.68 million ounces in inferred. An exploration ramp is in development with surface drilling to continue in 2025. Odyssey Mine: Inferred resources jumped 37% to 4.6 million ounces at East Gouldie. The total Odyssey resource base now includes 5.55 million ounces in reserves, 3.2 million in measured/indicated, and 9.7 million in inferred.

Hope Bay: Following over 119,000 metres of drilling, the Patch 7 zone now hosts an initial 0.9 million ounces of indicated resources, with inferred resources at 0.8 million ounces. The technical evaluation for the full Hope Bay project is scheduled for completion in 2026.

Upper Beaver : Mineral reserves were declared for the first time at 2.77 million ounces of gold and 54,930 tonnes of copper.

Wasamac: Now declared at 1.38 million ounces in mineral reserves, this project further advances Agnico’s Canadian Malartic “fill-the-mill” strategy.

In 2025, Agnico Eagle plans to spend between $290 million and $310 million on capitalized and expensed exploration. Another $215 million to $235 million will be directed toward project studies and corporate development.

A PATH FORWARD

Taken together, Agnico Eagle’s moves signal a company in full expansion mode, building on core operations with strategic acquisitions and aggressive exploration. From absorbing O3 Mining to investing further in Cartier Resources, and growing key projects like Detour, Odyssey, and Hope Bay, Agnico is staking its claim as the dominant force in Canadian gold.

ADDENDUM: Q4 2024 PERFORMANCE HIGHLIGHTS – AGNICO EAGLE DOUBLES DOWN ON GROWTH AND STABILITY

The company delivered record annual gold production, coupled with record operating cash flow and record free cash flow for the fourth consecutive year, cementing 2024 as one of the most successful chapters in its 68year history. “This strong operational and cost performance, combined with a higher gold price environment, yielded record financial results,” said Al-Joundi, noting that these results have bolstered Agnico Eagle’s ability to both strengthen its balance sheet and enhance shareholder returns. Among the financial highlights:

• $920 million returned to shareholders in 2024 through dividends and share repurchases.

• $700 million in gross debt was repaid over the year.

• Cash reserves grew by nearly $600 million, strengthening the company’s liquidity and investment readiness.

At the operational level, Agnico Eagle continued to demonstrate discipline in cost control, achieving gold production and cost guidance targets while maintaining a strong safety record across its sites. These results also underscore the company’s long-term planning strategy, with reinvestment continuing to power major growth projects across its portfolio. Key growth initiatives in 2024 included:

Detour Lake: Mill optimization and the underground project are advancing with the goal of reaching 1 million ounces per year in production.

Odyssey: Shaft sinking and construction are progressing as part of the full transition to underground operations, complemented by an aggressive exploration campaign.

Canadian Malartic: Work continues on the “fill-the-mill” strategy, evaluating potential for a second shaft, and assessing satellite operations at Marban and Wasamac. Hope Bay: Infrastructure upgrades and site prep are underway following positive drilling results that point toward a larger production profile than initially envisioned. Upper Beaver: Early-stage development includes ramp access and shaft work to support future underground operations.

San Nicolás (with Teck Resources): Feasibility and permitting efforts are ongoing, moving the polymetallic project steadily toward development.

In addition to physical development, exploration results supported strategic reserve growth:

• Proven and probable gold reserves increased slightly to 54.3 million ounces.

• Inferred mineral resources grew by 9%, a critical metric as the company evaluates future mine life extensions and project expansions.

Looking ahead, Agnico Eagle has updated its three-year production guidance, which projects a stable output profile from 2025 to 2027. Cost guidance for 2025 reflects only a modest 3–4% increase, underscoring continued discipline even as reinvestment into the asset base increases. “We remain steadfast in our focus on our long-held strategy of building a growing, highquality, low-risk, sustainable business,” said Al-Joundi. “One that generates superior long-term returns for our shareholders, creates a great place to work for our employees, and operates in a safe and socially responsible manner.” With a strong balance sheet, a robust project pipeline, and steady production, Agnico Eagle enters 2025 from a position of formidable strength — firmly committed to delivering long-term value in a complex, high-stakes global gold market.

DISCOVERY SILVER’s Double Play: Porcupine and Cordero Fuel Long-Term Growth

Tony Makuch doesn’t just have a front-row seat to the next big Canadian mining revival—he’s behind the wheel. The CEO of Discovery Silver has positioned his company to capitalize on its strategic acquisition in Timmins while advancing one of the largest undeveloped silver projects in the world.

“We think we can bring Porcupine back to being a tier-one asset in the gold space,” Makuch told Swiss Resource Capital in early April.

Makuch’s confidence is grounded in experience. He and several members of the Discovery team are intimately familiar with the Timmins Camp. The company completed its acquisition of the Porcupine mining complex from Newmont in March, a decision rooted not just in opportunity, but in a deep understanding of the region’s potential.

“This is a 100-year-old camp with over 77 million ounces mined. We see the upside,” said Makuch.

Porcupine is expected to produce up to 500,000 ounces of gold annually over a 10-year mine life, supported by a strong financing package. Franco-Nevada, Eric Sprott, and Jupiter Asset Management are among the heavy-hitters backing the deal.

Makuch says the near-term focus will be on ramping up production at Hoyle Pond and Borden, as well as optimizing throughput at the Dome mill. Discovery plans to invest in infrastructure upgrades, ventilation, backfill systems, and fleet renewal to boost productivity across the site.

“We’re targeting a $50 million annual exploration budget for Porcupine. That’s a tenfold increase over what’s been spent in recent years,” said Makuch.

Spending $50 million to put millions more on the bal-

ance sheet makes good sense. With the price of gold at record highs, no-one is arguing with the strategy. Discovery also plans to bring the Pamour open pit into full production this year and expand mill capacity from 3.2 million tonnes to over 4.4 million tonnes per year.

“Every 100 tonnes a day we add at Hoyle Pond at 12 grams per tonne is like adding 1,000 tonnes a day at a 1.2-gram pit,” Makuch explained. “Porcupine gives us the ability to not only generate strong cash flow but to structure better financing for Cordero. It’s a gamechanger in terms of capital access,” said Makuch.

While Porcupine is being prepared to print cash, those revenues will serve a bigger vision: building Cordero.

MEXICO’S CORDERO:

The Flagship with Tier-One Ambitions

Cordero, in the state of Chihuahua, Mexico, is expected to become one of the world’s largest silver mines. Discovery owns 100% of the surface rights, has secured water access, and is nearing the final stages of permitting. Makuch anticipates receiving the key environmental permit in the first half of this year.

“Cordero checks every box: community support, environmental management, water recycling, and lowimpact development,” said Makuch.

With a mine plan targeting production of over 37 million ounces of silver equivalent annually for ten years, Cordero is on track to become a cornerstone asset for the global energy transition.

“We’re producing the metals the world needs: silver, zinc, and lead. These are essential for the energy transition, and we’re doing it in a responsible way,” said Makuch.

Discovery estimates Cordero will create over 1,000 permanent jobs, with up to 2,500 during peak construction. The mine is projected to generate $4.2 billion in regional economic activity over its lifespan and contribute nearly $2 billion in taxes.

Construction could begin as early as late 2025, with full production targeted by 2029. At current silver prices, the project’s net present value could exceed $2.5 billion, offering a rapid payback of just one year.

“For every dollar invested in Cordero, we expect to get three to four dollars back,” said Makuch. “That’s the kind of project you want to be building.”

Financing with Flexibility

The Porcupine acquisition provides Discovery Silver with the production base and cash flow needed to fund the development of Cordero. While the current financing package focuses on Porcupine, management sees opportunities to restructure for greater flexibility.

“We’re not just growing NAV. We’re focused on NAV per share. That’s how we deliver value to shareholders,” said Makuch.

Makuch emphasized that Cordero’s updated feasibility will consider inflation but won’t rely on inflated metal prices to justify the economics. The company is also considering additional upfront investments in water and energy infrastructure to lower long-term operating costs.

A Legacy in the Making

Cordero is designed to be more than a mine—it’s a generational project. With only 65% of the known resource included in current plans, the potential for decades of additional production remains strong.

“This project can create prosperity from nothing,” said Makuch. “It’s the kind of investment that builds communities, careers, and a sustainable future.”

Striking Gold: How IAMGOLD’s Côté Mine is Transforming Ontario’s Mining Landscape

Ontario’s mining industry is glittering brighter than ever, thanks to IAMGOLD’s ambitious Côté Gold Mine project. Nestled in the heart of northern Ontario south of Timmins, this state-of-the-art operation has quickly become a beacon of innovation, sustainability, and economic promise. From achieving major production milestones to embracing cutting-edge green technology, here’s how the Côté Mine is reshaping the future of Canadian mining.

A GOLDEN MILESTONE: Ramping Up Operations

After years of planning and development, the Côté Gold Mine officially achieved commercial production in August 2024. This marked a major milestone for IAMGOLD, as the site began producing gold at scale. In its first year of operation, the mine yielded an impressive 199,000 ounces of gold. But IAMGOLD isn’t stopping there—2025 production is projected to soar to between 360,000 and 400,000 ounces as the mine ramps up to 90% throughput by year-end. “While Cȏté Gold is a transformative project for IAMGOLD, it is also estimated that Cȏté will contribute no less than $10 billion to Ontario’s GDP. It is a mega enterprise that is actually just starting,” said CEO Renaud Adams.

To support this growth, IAMGOLD has implemented innovative solutions like mobile crushing units and autonomous haul trucks. These tech-

nologies are not only improving efficiency but also setting a new standard for modern mining practices. And with ongoing exploration in the nearby Gosselin zone, the potential for even greater output looms on the horizon.

TAKING BACK CONTROL: A Strategic Ownership Move

In a bold move that underscores its confidence in the mine’s long-term potential, IAMGOLD repurchased a 9.7% stake in the Côté Gold Mine from Sumitomo Metal Mining in late 2024. This transaction restored IAMGOLD’s ownership to 70%, reaffirming its commitment to maximizing the value of this world-class asset. This strategic decision signals IAMGOLD’s belief in Côté Gold’s ability to deliver sustained returns—not just for shareholders but also for the surrounding communities and Ontario’s economy.

MINING GOES GREEN: A Sustainability Revolution

IAMGOLD is proving that mining and sustainability can go hand in hand. In March 2025, the company received $1.48 million from Canada’s Low Carbon Economy Fund to electrify operations at Côté Gold. The initiative includes replacing dieselpowered equipment with electric alternatives—a move expected to cut emissions by an estimated 7,500 tonnes of CO2 equivalent annually by 2030.

By embracing green technology, IAMGOLD is not only reducing its environmental footprint but also positioning itself as an industry leader in sustainable mining practices.

BOOSTING ONTARIO’S ECONOMY: A $10 Billion Impact

The Côté Gold Mine isn’t just about extracting precious metals—it’s about creating lasting value for Ontario. Over its projected 18-year lifespan, the mine is expected to contribute a staggering $10 billion to the province’s GDP. Beyond economic output, it will also provide nearly 600 full-time jobs, offering stable employment opportunities for local communities.

“I’m pleased to see how CȏtéGosselin now is in a very select group of the biggest gold deposits here in Canada. Of the top-five operations, Cȏté is currently seen as third. This is in terms of production, but in terms of life of mine, and as we continue to grow, Cȏté has the potential to become the biggest gold deposit,” said Adams.

IAMGOLD has worked closely with Indigenous groups and regional stakeholders to ensure that these benefits are shared equitably, fostering strong relationships that will endure long after the last ounce of gold is mined.

A BRIGHT FUTURE FOR CANADIAN MINING

The Côté Gold Mine is more than just a mining operation—it’s a symbol of what’s possible when innovation, sustainability, and economic development come together. As IAMGOLD continues to push boundaries and set new benchmarks, it’s clear that this northern Ontario project is paving the way for a brighter future in Canadian mining.

With gold production ramping up, green initiatives taking root, and billions flowing into Ontario’s economy, IAMGOLD has struck more than gold—they’ve struck inspiration for an entire industry.

ONYX GOLD Makes High-Grade Moves in Timmins with New Discovery

Notall mining breakthroughs happen deep in the wilderness. Some occur in Canada’s most prolific gold belt, right under the industry’s nose. That’s exactly where Onyx Gold is staking its claim.

“We’re on to something new in Timmins,” said Darwin Green, Executive Chairman of Onyx Gold.

In a recent sit-down interview, Green outlined how the company is advancing a compelling exploration story, leveraging a disciplined approach to greenfield exploration within a mature mining camp.

Onyx Gold’s portfolio spans two of Canada’s most recognized jurisdictions: the Yukon and northeastern Ontario. While its Yukon assets sit near the Snowline Gold discovery in an early-stage but promising district, the company’s current spotlight is fixed firmly on Timmins.

“Timmins has been Canada’s top gold-producing jurisdiction. It’s a great place to be, and we’ve assembled a large land package that was essentially frozen in time for about 100 years,” said Green.

At the heart of this renewed exploration effort is the Monroe-Croesus project, an area with a rich history and renewed geological promise.

The company has stitched together over 30 separate land deals to consolidate the area, reviving ground long neglected due to fragmented ownership.

“Croesus itself was fabulously high grade—a super-rich but relatively small mine. What we’ve found now at the Argus Zone is more of a bulk-tonnage style mineralization,” said Green.

Early drilling at Argus has returned intercepts including 60 metres of 1.0 gram per tonne gold and 50 metres of 1.9 grams per tonne. While modest at first glance, the real excitement lies in the structural setting. Just six kilometres along trend lies a 3-4 million ounce deposit.

“We’re testing that same structure. It’s a brand-new discovery at the earliest stage, and we believe it has the potential to be quite large,” said Green.

The project is a case study in Onyx Gold’s strategy: bringing a greenfield mindset into brownfield territory.

“We went back to basics—layers of new data, boots on the ground. There are areas with phenomenal geology that have gone underexplored,” said Green. “So far, so good.”

That strategy is already paying dividends. Beyond Argus, Onyx has uncovered a separate high-grade vein system producing multi-ounce mineralization.

With fresh drill results announced earlier this year and winter approaching, the company is now preparing for a major push in 2025.

“Our intent is to get back there in a pretty heavy way with drilling in the new year,” said Green.

In early April, Onyx announced new high-grade drill results from hole MC24-163, at the Argus North Zone, a newly identified gold zone located 100 meters north of the main Argus Zone trend at its 100% owned Munro-Croesus Project. In addition, the company has signed an option agreement to acquire a 100% interest in a key 21-hectare inholding, contiguous with the Argus North discovery. This acquisition strengthens Onyx Gold’s land position and enhances its ability to expand this promising new zone.

Onyx Gold’s approach in Timmins shows that even in mature camps, discovery is far from over. With the right land package, a fresh perspective, and systematic exploration, the next big find may lie just beneath familiar ground.

ALAMOS GOLD Defies Industry Trends with Record Production and Long-Term Strategy

In an industry often defined by caution and consolidation, Alamos Gold continues to chart a bold and contrarian path—one that has delivered record production and long-term growth. “We just reported a 7% increase in production year-over-year,” said John McCluskey, President and CEO of Alamos Gold, in a recent television interview. “That’s bucking the trend in a sector where sustaining production is getting increasingly difficult.” As gold continues to produce all-time highs, many producers are struggling to maintain output, let alone grow reserves. Alamos is doing both.

Built for Scale, Built to Last

Ten years ago, Alamos was a single-mine company with under two million ounces in reserves. Today, it operates four mines and holds more than 14 million ounces of gold reserves—a growth story that defies the broader industry’s trajectory. “It’s an extraordinary position to be in,” said McCluskey. “And we got here by doing things differently. From day one, we’ve taken a contrarian approach to building this company.”

While major producers chase economies of scale at 4 to 5 million ounces annually—often facing enormous challenges in replacing that output—Alamos has opted for sustainable, high-margin growth.

Contrarian at the Core

McCluskey recalls the company’s origin story in 2001, when gold was trading below $300 an ounce and few investors saw a future for the metal.

“We stepped in and bought an option agreement from a major mining company for $10 million. They had already poured $50 million into defining 2 million ounces but couldn’t see a path to profitability,” he explained. Alamos turned that acquisition—at the time, a speculative move—into a foundational asset.

“There wasn’t a single ounce on that property you could produce profitably when we signed the deal. Today, we’ve produced over 3 million ounces and generated more than

$700 million in free cash flow from that one mine alone. And it’s still operating 20 years later.”

That ethos—buy low, build carefully, and never follow the herd—remains core to Alamos’ strategy.

“Investors say they like a contrarian strategy in theory. But in practice, it makes them uncomfortable. Still, we wouldn’t be here without it.”

ISLAND GOLD: A High-Grade Powerhouse

The Island Gold Mine, near Dubreuilville, has solidified its reputation as one of the highest-grade and fastestgrowing gold deposits globally. Exploration efforts have consistently delivered remarkable results, with mineral reserves increasing for nine consecutive years. John A. McCluskey, President and CEO of Alamos Gold, highlighted the mine’s potential: “Our drilling program at Island Gold over the past year has been one of the most successful in the history of the asset. Island Gold has established itself as one of the highest-grade and fastest growing deposits in the world”.

In 2025, Alamos is investing $27 million in exploration at Island Gold, up from $20 million in 2024. The program includes 41,500 meters of underground drilling to define new reserves and resources near existing production zones. Additionally, surface drilling will target areas between Island Gold and Magino deposits, aiming to further extend high-grade mineralization.

YOUNG-DAVIDSON:

A Foundation for Growth

Young-Davidson, located near Matachewan, is one of Canada’s largest underground gold mines and a cor-

nerstone of Alamos Gold’s portfolio. Known for its low-cost operations and substantial reserve base, YoungDavidson continues to deliver strong cash flow while maintaining a 13-year reserve life since 2011.

Recent exploration at Young-Davidson has unveiled a new style of high-grade gold mineralization at the 9620-level. Assays include impressive grades such as 15.84 g/t gold over six meters—well above current reserve grades of 2.31 g/t gold.

No Rush to M&A, But Always Watching

While many in the industry focus on

mergers and acquisitions to drive growth, McCluskey says Alamos takes a measured approach.

“We’re always looking,” he said. “You have to keep an eye out for competitors whose assets could make sense at the right price. But we don’t chase deals for the sake of growth. We focus on balance sheet strength, asset quality, and long-term value.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Gold, Debt, and the Unanswered Fort Knox Question

With U.S. debt levels surpassing $37 trillion and global monetary policy in flux, McCluskey says investors are understandably turning to hard assets. “Gold is scarce. And it’s getting harder to find and produce. We’ve seen gold rise alongside rising debt and economic uncertainty—it’s not surprising.”

He also voiced curiosity over the state of U.S. gold reserves, particularly those held in Fort Knox.

“I’d be more confident in what they’re saying if they actually audited it,” said McCluskey. “On the World Gold Council board, we audit our holdings every quarter. Why hasn’t the U.S. government done the same in decades?”

While the notion of missing gold reserves may belong in the realm of fiction, McCluskey argues that transparency would only bolster confidence in the system.

“An audit would be a good thing for everyone. Until then, who really knows what’s there?”

Looking Ahead

With gold nearing $3,000 USD per ounce—ten times its price when Alamos was founded—McCluskey sees strong tailwinds but remains focused on execution.

“This isn’t a speculative flash-inthe-pan story. It’s a 22-year journey built on discipline, vision, and a willingness to go against the grain.”

WESDOME Reaches Record

Output, Renewed Strategy, an Acquisition & ExplorationDriven Growth

Wesdome

Gold Mines Ltd. entered 2025 with wind at its back and a clear strategy that has already yielded record results. With production, revenue, and free cash flow all hitting all-time highs in 2024, the company is doubling down on its two key operations—Eagle River and Kiena—and expanding exploration across its extensive land package.

“It was the most robust operating and financial year in the company’s history,” said CEO Anthea Bath. “Our success is about more than just higher gold prices—it’s about strong execution, disciplined cost control, and a relentless focus on organic growth.”

A Year of Firsts & Highs

Wesdome reported 172,000 ounces of gold production in 2024—up 39% from the prior year. That includes 94,500 ounces from the long-producing Eagle River Mine and 77,000 ounces from Kiena, which ramped up after bringing its high-grade Kiena Deep zone online in April. Bath credits the results to a disciplined growth strategy built around three pillars: global resource modeling, strategic exploration, and maximizing fixedcost leverage. The approach is paying off. Eagle River delivered grades above guidance at 13.7 g/t, while Kiena processed ore at an average grade of 11.2 g/t and ramped up throughput by 13% year-over-year.

Costs Under Control, Cash Flow Surges

All-in sustaining costs came in at US$1,459 per ounce, down significantly in the second half. Wesdome generated $183 million in revenue in Q4 alone—up 79% from the previous year—and turned in a net income of $57 million. Operating cash flow doubled year-over-year to $76 mil-

lion, while free cash flow ballooned fivefold to $40 million. “We ended 2024 with $123 million in cash, up from just $41 million at the start of the year,” said CFO Fernando Ragone. “Our balance sheet is clean, debtfree, and set up to support long-term growth.”

Acquiring Angus Gold

Wesdome Gold Mines Ltd. and Angus Gold Inc. announced in early April that they signed a definitive arrangement where Wesdome will acquire all the issued and outstanding common shares of Angus. The enterprise value to Wesdome, net of Angus’s cash, is approximately $40 million.

Wesdome says the strategic rationale for Wesdome is that the deal transforms Eagle River into a districtscale opportunity and quadruples Wesdome’s land position at Eagle River, consolidating two adjacent properties into one ~400 km2 contiguous strategic land package on a highly prospective greenstone belt. The expanded footprint hosts multiple targets and mineralization styles.

The deal will also bolster Eagle River’s greenfield exploration pipeline by consolidating district-scale exploration potential across at least three mineralized trends, including the Eagle River Splay and Cameron Lake banded iron formation (“BIF”). Recent intercepts — 48.7 g/t Au over 1.5m at the Splay and 47.4m at 1.1 g/t Au (incl. 11.7m at 2.2 g/t) at BIF — underscore the potential for discovering new mineralized zones and resource delineation. It also underscores a long-term commitment to Eagle River and the opportunity to leverage Wesdome’s existing balance sheet, infrastructure and relationships with stakeholder and Indigenous groups to accelerate exploration and development, while continuing to focus on the company’s asset base located in Ontario and Québec – two of the world’s premier mining jurisdictions.

“This is a highly logical and strategic tuck-in transaction that brings together a contiguous land package between the Eagle River mine and mill, enhancing our ability to unlock value through the drill bit,” said Anthea Bath, President and CEO of Wesdome. “It reinforces our belief in the geological potential of the Mishibishu Lake greenstone belt, aligns with our focus on regional consolidation, and positions us to deliver sustainable, long-term growth supported by our strong balance sheet and existing infrastructure.

“Since 2020, Angus has invested over $20 million into exploration

Eagle River Mine, Wawa ON

across the Golden Sky project, generating a pipeline of targets and confirming the geological continuity with Eagle River. Wesdome intends to continue this momentum, focusing on high-priority zones such as the Cameron Lake BIF and Eagle River Splay in 2025. Wesdome remains deeply confident in the prospectivity of the Eagle River camp and the broader potential of our ongoing fillthe-mill strategy. This transaction represents a strategic investment in that vision and underscores our long-term commitment to unlocking value at Eagle River.

“Breanne and her team have done excellent work over the last several years, which has resulted in multiple discoveries and laid the groundwork for further exploration. We believe that now is the right time for Wesdome to assume ownership and build upon the work done by the Angus team. With Wesdome’s balance sheet and free cash flow profile, we can add significant value to the property and eventually bring economic deposits into production quickly given the proximity to our existing infrastructure.”

“On behalf of the Board of Directors of Angus Gold, we are excited to have reached an agreement with Wesdome,” said Breanne Beh, President and CEO of Angus. “This transaction is a testament to the dedication and diligent work of the Angus team, particularly our exploration team, and we sincerely thank everyone for their excellent work. Since 2020, through a series of property acquisitions, we consolidated a district-scale land package, completed over 40,000 metres of drilling, and made significant gold discoveries. These accomplishments would not have been possible without the support of our committed stakeholders. We believe this transaction delivers immediate value to our shareholders and provides the opportunity to benefit from a well-established and well-financed gold producer.”

Global Resource Models Reshape the Future

The company’s innovative use of digitized global resource models— leveraging decades of drilling, sampling, and mapping—has become central to its growth narrative.

“At Eagle River, we’ve already identified near-surface zones that support increased production at lower cost,” said SVP Exploration Jonathon Lawrence. “This work is uncovering high-margin ounces near existing infrastructure.”

Kiena is following a similar playbook, with aggressive drilling programs targeting the VC Zone and Presqu’ile. The completion of multiple underground exploration platforms is expected to significantly enhance drill angles and intercepts.

Wesdome’s 2024 drilling campaign totaled more than 105,000 meters across both operations. Reserves and resources surged, with proven reserves up 79%, and indicated resources up 37%. Total reserves now stand at 3.6 million tonnes at an average grade of 10.2 g/t.

Building the Foundation for the Future

A key focus for 2025 will be expanding access to multiple mining fronts. At Kiena, development is underway on the 134 and 136 levels to unlock new high-grade stopes. Meanwhile, the Presqu’ile ramp will provide access to low-cost supplemental ore later this year. The goal: keep mill utilization high without sacrificing mine life.

“By year-end, we aim to have three active mining fronts at Kiena—two high-grade and one low-grade,” said CFO Fernando Ragone. “This gives us the flexibility we need to manage grades, costs, and productivity.”

Eagle River is also seeing major investment in automation, equipment reliability, and supply chain optimization. Wesdome is confident these efforts will begin yielding significant cost savings starting in 2025.

Exploration Beyond the Fence

Wesdome is expanding its exploration focus beyond infill and conversion drilling. Regional programs in the Birch and Fork veins, as well as a large induced polarization (IP) survey, are underway. The company is also investing in oriented core drilling and surface geochem to drive discoveries in underexplored areas.

“Greenfield and brownfield targets are now front and center,” said Lawrence. “We are convinced of the prospectivity of our ground and determined to showcase that in 2025 and beyond.”

Outlook for 2025

Production guidance is set between 190,000 and 210,000 ounces—a 16% increase from 2024—with the back half of the year expected to carry the heaviest output. All-in sustaining costs are forecast between US$1,325 and US$1,475 per ounce.

Wesdome expects to self-fund $160 million in capital expenditures, including $40 million earmarked for exploration. If gold prices remain above US$3,000 per ounce, the company projects free cash flow could rise nearly 70% above current guidance.

“Wesdome is now a higher-return, lower-risk proposition,” said Bath. “We’ve built the foundation—and 2025 is about scaling that success.”

CANADA NICKEL CEO unveils massive nickel/steel plans for Timmins

Canada

Nickel Company’s ambi-

tious vision is quickly becoming a reality—and if CEO Mark Selby’s recent address to the Timmins Chamber of Commerce is any indication, 2025 could be the most pivotal year yet.

“By the end of the year, we hope to make the final investment decision and start construction on what would be one of the world’s largest nickel mines,” said Selby.

Since its founding in 2019, Canada Nickel has been advancing at a relentless pace, rapidly positioning the Timmins region as a global hub for low-carbon, high-grade nickel production. What began with a single discovery has evolved into the development of the Crawford Nickel Project, the second-largest nickel resource in the world—only Norilsk in Russia ranks higher.

Crawford at the Core

Crawford is more than a mine. It’s the nucleus of what Canada Nickel dubs the “Timmins Nickel District,” a mineral belt that could rival the legendary Sudbury Basin. With nine separate resources expected to be defined by mid-2025, Selby’s team has created the largest nickel sulfide district on the planet.

“We’ve invested $250 million since inception, and we’re still finding more,” said Selby. “No one on our team thinks Crawford is the best project we have.”

Canada Nickel’s 2023 feasibility study pegged the project’s Net Present Value at $2.5 billion, with a build-out cost of $2 billion. In spite of inflationary pressures, the company managed to limit capital cost increases to just 5%, while boosting the project’s NPV by $700 million.

George Pirie, Timmins MPP and Minister of Northern Economic Development and Growth, Her Worship The City of Timmins Mayor Michelle Boileau and Tom Faught Jr., 2024-25 Timmins Chamber President.

The project is expected to produce nearly 50,000 tonnes of nickel annually, with by-products such as chrome magnetite contributing significantly to revenue. Selby emphasized the lowcost nature of the operation, noting that even at today’s depressed nickel prices, Crawford would still be highly profitable.

A Full-Scale, Low-Carbon Supply Chain

Equally transformative is Canada Nickel’s decision to develop its own downstream processing facilities— right in Timmins. The integrated plant will refine nickel concentrate and produce semi-finished steel using a proprietary process that leverages local low-carbon electricity.

“What Ching Shan did in Indonesia, we’re going to do here—but better,” said Selby. “We’re going to

produce 2.5 million tonnes of semifinished steel in Phase 2, and do it with a near-zero carbon footprint.”

This vision includes injecting CO2 into ultramafic tailings during processing—a method that enables the permanent storage of 1.5 million tonnes of CO2 annually. Biochar sourced from regional forestry operations could further reduce emissions, allowing the company to manufacture zero-carbon steel in the heart of Timmins.

“We can’t overstate what this means—not just for mining, but for Canadian industry,” Selby said. “This is how we build prosperity from the ground up.”

Strategic Financing and First Nations Partnership

In terms of financing, Canada Nickel has secured non-binding Letters of

Intent totalling $1 billion, with Export Development Canada and another Canadian financial institution expressing strong support. EDC is also positioned to lead the broader project debt financing effort.

“We’re working with Scotia, Deutsche Bank, and Cutfield Freeman to get the full financing package in place before year-end,” said Selby.

Notably, the company recently welcomed the Taykwa Tagamou Nation as an investor. Their equity stake positions them as one of the first Indigenous communities in Canada to hold ownership in a major critical minerals project.

“Getting First Nations to the table as owners is something we’re proud of. It’s one of the most meaningful milestones we’ve reached.”

Massive Resource, Global Relevance

With the world scrambling to diversify nickel supply away from Indonesia, Canada Nickel’s clean, scalable, and resource-rich model stands apart.

Selby noted that Indonesia now controls a larger share of the nickel market than OPEC ever did with oil.

“Indonesia is now a massive overhang on the market,” Selby warned. “We have a chance here in Timmins to offer an alternative—a responsibly produced, low-carbon nickel that the world desperately needs.”

Nickel demand has grown at over 9% annually since 2020, fueled by electric vehicles. If that pace continues, the global market will need 6 million tonnes annually by 2030— nearly double today’s production.

Scaling Beyond Crawford

Beyond Crawford, the company has more than 20 targets. Eighteen have already been drilled, and Selby says six additional resources will be published by mid-year.

“We’re not just building a mine. We’re building a generational resource base that could last hundreds of years.”

Among those targets is the Reid deposit, just 15 km from Crawford.

It boasts a strip ratio of 0.5:1, could produce nearly twice as much nickel, and may be even more economically robust than Crawford.

“By 2035 or 2040, my goal is for Timmins to produce more nickel than Norilsk and as much as Sudbury did at its peak.”

Local Roots, Global Impact

Selby closed by crediting the region for Canada Nickel’s rapid success.

“The depth of talent here—consultants, contractors, and communities—is unmatched. We wouldn’t have been able to move this fast anywhere else.”

Pending permits and financing, shovels could be in the ground as early as this year, with first production by 2027 or 2028.

“This is one of the very few places in the world where the critical minerals revolution is actually happening. And it’s happening right here in Timmins.”

GFG RESOURCES executes a multi-pronged strategy

In a series of pivotal announcements this year, GFG Resources Inc. has strengthened its position as one of the most promising exploration companies operating in the Timmins Gold District—widely considered one of the most prolific gold-producing regions in the world. With new drill results from its Aljo Mine target, a land acquisition to expand its Pen Gold Project, and the signing of an impactful exploration agreement with the Apitipi Anicinapek Nation, the company is aligning exploration success with community collaboration.

A RELATIONSHIP BUILT ON RESPECT:

GFG and Apitipi Anicinapek Nation

Formalize Partnership

GFG announced the signing of an Exploration Agreement (EA) with the Apitipi Anicinapek Nation (AAN). The agreement centers around GFG’s Goldarm Property, and establishes a foundation of mutual engagement, economic opportunity, and environmental stewardship.

“This agreement reflects our Nation’s commitment to ensuring that resource development within our territory is done responsibly and with our direct involvement and consent,” said Chris Sackaney, Director of Lands and Resources for AAN. “We aim to protect our lands and waters while also creating opportunities for our community members.”

The agreement includes provisions for:

• Continuous consultation throughout exploration activities.

• Employment and training opportunities for AAN members.

• Business development initiatives within the Nation.

• The creation of a community fund based on GFG’s exploration expenditures.

• An equity component: GFG will issue $20,000 worth of common shares to AAN (pending TSXV approval), calculated based on the average fiveday closing price prior to announcement.

“We are grateful for the opportunity to collaborate with AAN and jointly establish a framework that places emphasis on environmental stewardship, cultural respect, and community empowerment,” said Brian Skanderbeg, President and CEO of GFG. “By incorporating the values and perspectives of AAN into our exploration activities, our goal is to generate shared benefits, and an enduring relationship founded on trust and mutual respect.”

High-Grade Gold at Aljo Adds Momentum

Fresh off the signing with AAN, GFG released strong assay results from its latest drilling campaign at the Aljo Mine Target on the Goldarm Property. Located just east of Timmins and surrounded by mills and infrastructure, Aljo continues to impress with multiple zones of mineralization intersected at shallow depths—many featuring visible gold. Key results include:

Hole ALJ-24-017:

• 1.74 g/t Au over 13.2 m, including 24.2 g/t Au over 0.5 m

• FW Zone extension of 1.51 g/t Au over 5.2 m (including 4.68 g/t Au over 1.5 m)

Hole ALJ-24-018:

• 4.13 g/t Au over 5.2 m, including 8.98 g/t Au over 2.2 m at 115 m vertical depth

• Additional high-grade intervals: 32.7 g/t Au over 0.5 m and 16.4 g/t Au over 0.5 m

According to VP of Exploration Anders Carlson, the drill program has not only extended known zones at depth, but confirmed the presence of a robust and expanding system in proximity to the Destor-Porcupine Fault Zone, a key structural corridor in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt.

“The fact that all zones have been successfully extended in a system adjacent to significant mining infrastructure underscores the value of Aljo,” said Carlson. “With coarse visible gold, strong alteration, and structural complexity, we’re just scratching the surface of this system’s potential.”

Muskego Greenfield Program

Sparks New Exploration Front

While Aljo continues to yield high grades, GFG has also made significant headway at the Muskego Target, a greenfield area in the Western Abitibi Greenstone Belt. The company has:

• Constructed multiple roads and drill pads

• Completed 8 of a planned 10–12 hole drill program

• Launched a sonic till sampling program

• Initiated a significant induced polarization (IP) survey

“These are the first drill cores ever pulled from this portion of the belt,” noted Skanderbeg. “It’s exciting to explore such underexplored ground. The potential for discovery is significant.”

New Claims Strengthen Pen Gold Project

TSX-V: GFG | OTCQB: GFGSF

www.gfgresources.com

In parallel to its exploration success, GFG made a strategic land acquisition, expanding its Pen Gold Project footprint west of Timmins. For a modest price of $4,500 CDN, the company secured 100% ownership of new claims that strengthen its control in an area known for hosting similar geology to that of major gold mines in the district.

With a focus on district-scale exploration in Tier One jurisdictions, GFG now holds three major gold properties in the region—Goldarm, Pen, and Dore—with geological settings that mirror the bulk of the 70 million ounces produced from the Timmins Camp.

A Company in Forward Motion

From impactful community partnerships to expanding land positions and robust drill results, GFG Resources is executing a multi-pronged strategy rooted in responsible exploration, geological expertise, and long-term value creation. With a second-half 2025 drill campaign already planned at Aljo and new targets emerging at Muskego, the company is charting a bold course through Canada’s most storied gold district.

EV NICKEL

Secures 21-Year Mining Lease for W4 Nickel Deposit

Theprice of nickel may not be the greatest these days but that isn’t stopping visionary companies from looking for the next big deposits. EV Nickel Inc. achieved a significant milestone earlier this year with the granting of a 21-year Mining Lease for its 100%-owned W4 Nickel Deposit, part of the Shaw Dome Project 30 kilometers south of Timmins.

Paul Davis, Vice President of Exploration at EV Nickel, emphasized the importance of this development, stating, “The granting of the Mining Lease highlights a significant step forward in the development of the W4 Nickel Deposit. Securing the lease is a key requirement for potential extraction and underscores our commitment to advancing the project.”

The company is also focusing on its newly discovered Gemini North Zone, with plans to conduct 6,000 to 8,000 meters of diamond drilling to define the extent of the disseminated nickel sulphide zone identified during its 2024 exploration program.

Not long after the announcement, EV Nickel Inc. released significant progress in its 2024 exploration program, with promising results from its W4 Deposit drilling campaign. The company’s findings confirmed an extension of high-grade nickel sulphide mineralization east of a diabase dyke, expanding the known boundaries of the W4 Deposit. The mineralization remains open to the east and at depth, signaling strong potential for further resource growth.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE 2024 W4 DRILL PROGRAM:

• High-Grade Nickel Intercepts: Drill hole EV24-W403 recorded a peak grade of 2.60% Ni over 1.0 metre, while EV24-W401 intersected 8.0 metres grading 1.00% Ni, including 3.0 metres at 1.68% Ni.

• New Discovery: Nickel sulphide mineralization was identified east of the diabase dyke, marking a new area for potential expansion.

• Large-Scale Potential: The continuity of nickel mineralization along a 10-kilometer trend of komatiitic peridotites and dunites, similar to the CarLang A Deposit, was confirmed.

“The presence of high-grade nickel mineralization east of the diabase dyke demonstrates the favorable geological conditions of the W4 horizon to host additional resources,” said Davis. “This discovery represents a new area for potential expansion of the W4 Deposit.”

DRILL RESULTS AT A GLANCE:

• EV24-W401: 8.0m grading 1.00% Ni, including 3.0m at 1.68% Ni.

• EV24-W402: 2.0m grading 0.40% Ni.

• EV24-W403: 1.0m grading 2.60% Ni, with an additional 1.0m at 0.68% Ni.

Expanding Exploration Efforts

Building on the success of the 2024 program, EV Nickel launched its 2025 Diamond Drilling Exploration Program, targeting over 6,000 metres of drilling. The focus is on the Gemini North Nickel Sulphide Zone, located 3 kilometers north of the CarLang A Deposit in Carman Township.

The company then announced the first 6 holes of the 2025 diamond drill program designed to explore the recently discovered Gemini North Zone on its Shaw Dome Project. Assay results have been received for 6 of the 12 holes completed on the Gemini North Zone. All 6 holes intersected similar style sulphide mineralization as previously reported Hole EV24CAR08. The Gemini North Zone is

located on the northern end of the CarLang Trend. Nickel mineralization identified at the near surface Gemini North Zone includes the longest intersections of >0.34% Ni completed to date on the CarLang Trend Large-Scale Project including an intersection of 9.0m grading 0.51% Ni in hole EV25-GN06. “The Gemini North Zone is developing into a potentially significant zone of nickel sulphide mineralization within our overall CarLang Trend,” said Paul Davis, Vice President Exploration. “All 6 of the first 12 holes of the Gemini North drill program intersected similar style disseminated and blebby sulphides as first observed in Hole CAR08 with broader zones of even 1 better nickel mineralization than seen in 2024’s single hole. We are further encouraged by the continuity highlighted by 186.5 metres grading 0.36%, with meaningfully higher interval grades and elevated byproducts. If the zone continues to expand and grow in size, this could represent a near surface area with a style of mineralization that would react well to conventional milling processes and has similarities to a “Mt. Keith” style of nickel sulphide mineralization (BHP’s world-class open-pit nickel complex in Western Australia).”

Paul Davis, VP of Exploration at EV Nickel

Commitment to Clean Nickel Production

EV Nickel is strategically positioned to support North America’s growing demand for clean, low-carbon nickel. Located near Timmins, Ontario, the company’s projects align with government initiatives like the Inflation Reduction Act and Ontario’s critical mineral policies. EV Nickel aims to play a key role in the North American battery and electric vehicle supply chain, contributing to global decarbonization efforts.

Looking Ahead

With its expanding resource base and commitment to sustainable practices, EV Nickel is well-positioned to become a leading supplier of nickel for the North American market. The company’s focus on high-grade and large-scale deposits ensures a strong foundation for future growth.

EV also reported positive results of the preliminary open cycle test program completed on one composite sample from hole EV24-CAR08 on its 100% owned, Gemini North Nickel Zone within the Shaw Dome Project. “These recovery numbers are very exciting and appear to confirm the higher recovery potential of the Gemini North Zone,” said Davis. “These improved recoveries, when combined with the higher nickel contents observed in the zone indicate that the Gemini North Zone has the potential to represent a significant zone of nickel mineralization similar to the Mt. Keith Mine in Western Australia. I am excited to see the developments of our winter drill program that has been designed to confirm the strike and dip of the sulphide zone as well as begin to determine the overall areal distribution of the sulphide mineralization.” The composite sample indicated robust recovery performance with total nickel recovery of 69.7%, Iron recovery of 58.3% and Chromium recovery of 49%. The same flowsheet developed for the CarLang A deposit was used in this first open cycle test and it was indicated that further improvements related to recoveries and concentrate grades could be anticipated with optimization of the flowsheet.

A Vision for Clean Nickel Production

EV Nickel is dedicated to providing clean nickel from Tier 1 jurisdictions, aligning with North American efforts to establish a robust supply chain for electric batteries and vehicles. Located near Timmins, a growing hub for critical minerals, the company aims to support the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and Canadian policies promoting clean mineral production. EV Nickel is actively collaborating with environmentally responsible organizations and stakeholders to advance sustainable mining practices and contribute to global decarbonization initiatives.

GALLEON GOLD Advances Toward Production with Approval for West Cache Bulk Sample Program

Inrecent months, Galleon Gold Corp. has been steadily strengthening its position in one of Canada’s most prolific gold districts—the Timmins mining camp. Through strategic acquisitions, focused exploration, and careful stakeholder engagement, the company has laid a strong foundation for advancing its flagship West Cache Gold Project. That groundwork has now paid off with a major regulatory milestone that could bring the company one step closer to production.

On April 9, Galleon Gold announced it had received formal approval from Ontario’s Ministry of Energy and Mines to proceed with an advanced exploration bulk sample program at West Cache. This marks a pivotal step forward for the 100%-owned project, which has emerged as one of the more promising undeveloped gold assets in the region.

“We are very pleased to have reached this important milestone for the West Cache Project,” said David Russell, President and CEO of Galleon Gold. “This approval is a testament to the tremendous effort from our team and the experts at the Ministry of Energy and Mines. We are grateful for the continued support of our local Indigenous communities, the city of Timmins, and the Ontario government. With this approval in hand, we are now poised to advance surface work and begin pre-devel-

opment activities. We look forward to providing updates accordingly.”

SETTING THE STAGE:

Strategic Growth and Regional Expansion

The approval follows Galleon Gold’s recent move to expand its land holdings in the Timmins area. On March 12, the company announced the acquisition of 66 additional mineral claims in Godfrey and Bristol Townships. The deal increased Galleon’s total land position to 11,570 hectares, significantly broadening its exploration footprint within the world-renowned Porcupine Destor Gold Belt.

“Adding adjacent claims, with geological merit, continues to build upon the already significant blue sky exploration potential of our land package,” Russell noted at the time.

This strategic expansion not only enhances the project’s long-term exploration upside but also strengthens Galleon’s presence alongside major players such as Pan American Silver and Newmont, underscoring the company’s ambition to become a significant contributor to Ontario’s gold mining future.

BULK SAMPLE PROGRAM DETAILS

The newly approved Closure Plan enables Galleon Gold to initiate an 86,500-tonne bulk sample from Zone #9, a high-grade section of the West

Cache deposit. Based on an average grade of 8.13 g/t, the company anticipates recovering approximately 22,600 ounces of gold prior to processing recoveries.

More than just a test of ore quality, the bulk sample will provide key data on underground mining methods, processing performance, and geotechnical conditions—critical components that will feed into the project’s upcoming pre-feasibility studies.

The Closure Plan outlines all necessary environmental safeguards, including project construction guidelines, baseline studies, reclamation plans, site rehabilitation, and longterm monitoring protocols to ensure responsible development.

LOOKING AHEAD

With the green light secured, Galleon Gold is now preparing to kick off surface work and pre-development activities at West Cache throughout 2025. This phase marks a major transition from exploration to advanced project development, bringing the company closer to its goal of becoming Timmins’ next producing gold mine.

Backed by a capable management team, a supportive local network, and a growing land position in one of North America’s top mining jurisdictions, Galleon Gold is positioning itself as a rising force in Ontario’s next generation of gold producers.

ONTARIO ’s Critical Minerals Strategy: From the Ground Up

“ The government doesn’t build the mines, we set the table. ”

Thatsingle sentence from former Ontario Minister of Mines, George Pirie, summed up the tone of a recent virtual roundtable titled Ontario’s Critical Minerals: Paving the Future With Provincial Support. Pirie is now Ontario’s Minister of Northern Economic Development & Growth.

Pirie was joined by three CEOs at the forefront of Ontario’s emerging critical minerals sector: Jamie Levy of Generation Mining, Mark Selby of Canada Nickel, and Trevor Walker of Frontier Lithium. Each leader brought a unique perspective on why Ontario is becoming a global leader in the energy transition and mineral independence movement.

Pirie emphasized the province’s agnostic approach to critical minerals. “We’re not picking winners. From lithium to nickel to PGMs— each mineral plays a vital role in the battery and electric vehicle revolution. The markets will decide what’s most valuable.”

To back up that claim, Ontario has committed over $55 million to its Junior Exploration Program and $20 million into innovation funding. The government’s objective? Position Ontario as a secure, ethical supplier of minerals crucial to everything from EV batteries to national defense.

Selby highlighted the geopolitical dimensions of the issue. “China

controls large swaths of the periodic table,” he warned. “We’ve already seen export restrictions on antimony. We should be encouraging the development of every mineral on that list.”

Walker noted that lithium, essential to EV batteries, is still largely refined in East Asia. “Government support is helping decouple us from the Chinese supply chain,” he said. Frontier Lithium’s PAC project is seen as one of North America’s most promising hard-rock lithium plays.

Levy brought copper and PGMs into the spotlight. His Marathon project contains both, with copper alone expected to generate 40% of the project’s revenue. He also pointed to supply concerns. “PGMs are largely produced in Russia and South Africa. Ontario offers a cleaner, more stable alternative.”

The conversation turned to timelines and government financing. Selby expects full permitting for Canada Nickel’s Crawford project by mid2025, with construction starting soon after. The company has already se -

cured up to $1 billion in federal funding support through Export Development Canada and another institution.

Levy noted that Generation Mining is in the final stages of provincial permitting. Federal approvals are already in hand. “We expect to begin construction by early 2026. We’ll create 1,200 construction jobs and 400–500 operations jobs. The impact on Northern Ontario will be huge.”

Walker outlined Frontier Lithium’s goal to bring lithium chemicals to market by the end of the decade. The company is finalizing feasibility work and progressing through the early permitting stages with support from both levels of government. Mitsubishi has recently come on board as a strategic partner.

Pirie emphasized the bigger picture. “This is about more than batteries. The U.S. sees this through a national security lens. We’re making sure Ontario is the partner of choice.”

He added that Ontario has been Canada’s top jurisdiction for exploration investment for two years running. Infrastructure spending—including $78 million for Hydro One’s Gold Centre transmission project—is designed to ensure power reaches new mining developments. “We expect 50,000 new jobs by 2035 in the critical minerals sector,” said Pirie. When asked about government red tape, Pirie acknowledged the need to streamline permitting. “We’re pushing for a ‘one project, one permit’ model and working with Indigenous communities to avoid repeating consultation steps.”

Community feedback was also front and center. According to the CEOs, most Northern Ontario communities—Indigenous and non-Indigenous alike—are asking one key question: *When does it start?* The urgency is clear, and the momentum appears real.

“We’ve got the resources, the workforce, and the infrastructure,” Pirie concluded. “Now it’s about getting it done.”

RED PINE EXPLORATION: Unlocking Potential at Wawa Gold Project

While many junior miners are content with exploration alone, Red Pine Exploration is setting its sights on a dual path: expanding a substantial gold resource and pushing toward near-term production—all in a high-grade district with some of Canada’s most strategic infrastructure.

“We’re more than just an exploration story. We believe Red Pine is poised for near-term production, and we’re operating in a historically prolific gold belt that’s finally getting the modern attention it deserves,” said CEO Mike Michaud during a presentation at the GCFF Virtual 2025 Gold Explorer Conference.

RESURRECTING A FORGOTTEN CAMP

Red Pine’s flagship Wawa Gold Project is near the town of Wawa and on the north shore of Lake Superior. The project area covers 10 kilometers of strike length and is surrounded by majors like Alamos Gold and Wesdome. Crucially, it is a former producing camp now consolidated under Red Pine’s control.

“Much of this land was historically fragmented. Now, we own 100% of it, including surface and mineral rights. That gives us a major advantage in terms of permitting and project development speed,” Michaud noted.

The company currently hosts 1.7 million ounces of gold in combined open pit and underground resources. Their updated resource, released in late 2024, represents a 150% in-

crease, and they are now aiming to grow the resource toward 3 million ounces.

INFRASTRUCTURE ADVANTAGE AND FAST-TRACK PATH

Unlike remote Canadian projects, Wawa offers easy access to highways, grid power within one kilometer, and proximity to two operating mills within 100 km. That existing infrastructure could allow Red Pine to fast-track production by sending ore to a third-party processor.

“Capex inflation has become a major issue across the sector,” Michaud said. “If we can avoid building a mill and tailings facility, we can save significant capital and reach cash flow far quicker.”

Alamos Gold, which owns a nearby mill, is already the company’s largest shareholder with a 13% stake. “It’s good to have a big brother,” Michaud said. “They’ve been supportive over the years and may play a key role in the project’s development.”

STRONG FINANCIALS, BOLD DRILLING

Red Pine raised $11 million in 2024,

largely from institutional investors including RBC, Mackenzie Gold 2000, and Swiss firm Gold 2000. FrancoNevada, one of the world’s largest royalty companies, also purchased a 1.5% royalty on the project for $7 million, underscoring their confidence in Wawa’s mineable future.

Since December 2024, Red Pine has drilled over 8,000 meters as part of a 25,000-meter drill campaign set to wrap up by mid-2025. Early results include a 600-meter step-out hole that returned ~20 g/t gold over a few meters, proving that the deposit extends significantly beyond its known boundaries.

“We weren’t interested in just twinning old holes for headlines,” said Michaud. “We took bold steps to demonstrate scale—and the results are coming in strong.”

OPEN PIT TO UNDERGROUND TRANSITION

The current resource includes 1.5 million ounces at 1.5 g/t for openpit extraction, and an additional ~200,000 ounces at 4 g/t underground. With shallow mineralization near surface and higher-grade zones at depth, the company sees clear potential to phase the project—starting with a small open-pit or underground operation to generate near-term cash flow.

“Optimization studies are underway now,” Michaud said. “And with the gold price where it is, it’s an ideal time to pursue near-term production.”

PERMITTING AND FIRST NATIONS SUPPORT

Permitting is already advanced thanks to the site’s past-producing status and patented land. Red Pine

has also signed exploration agreements with three First Nations and employs community members at the site. “We have the permits we need for drilling, and we’re well-positioned to update our closure plan and advance toward mining,” said Michaud.

UNDERVALUED POTENTIAL

According to a peer comparison chart by Haywood Securities, Red Pine trades at approximately $11 per ounce in the ground, well below peers with similar or less favorable locations. Research Capital and Haywood both maintain price targets of 40 cents, a significant premium over the current 12-cent share price.

“We don’t believe the market is factoring in our infrastructure advantage or near-term production potential,” Michaud said. “That will change as we release more public documents and updates this year.”

CATALYSTS FOR 2025

The rest of the year promises steady news flow. Investors can expect:

• Continued drill results from the ongoing 25,000-meter program

• An updated resource estimate

• Preliminary economic assessments on production scenarios

• Further studies on development pathways

2025 will be a pivotal year for STLLR

The race to become the next gold producer in Northern Ontario is on and there’s a stellar front-runner.

STLLR Gold, formerly known as Moneta Gold, is aggressively mapping out new reserves and optimistic about re-processing the old Hollinger gold tailings. Utilizing artificial intelligence (AI) technology, the company says it identified several high-grade targets this spring at its Tower Gold Project east of Timmins. “We are encouraged by the infill drilling results at the 903 Deposit,” said Keyvan Salehi, P.Eng., MBA, President, CEO, and Director of STLLR. “Using AI, we designed the drill holes to optimize the conversion of mineralization to higher confidence levels. The program intersected near-surface mineralization with grades exceeding the 903 Deposit’s current Mineral Resource Estimate.” In the meantime, the company also announced earlier this year that they successfully negotiated an option to drill and analyse the historic Hollinger Mine tailings.

The tailings contain an estimated 70 million tons and with gold stationed well above $3000 (USD) an ounce, it’s an attractive proposition. The company said this year that it was “thrilled” to option the Hollinger Tailings. Situated in the city of Timmins and conveniently close to existing processing facilities, the company says the project stands out as a strategic opportunity. Changes to the Ontario Mining Act in late 2024 sim-

plify the permitting process to unlock the economic potential of reprocessing mine tailings while encouraging environmental remediation of legacy sites. With low capital requirements and a favourable gold price environment, the Hollinger Tailings Project presents significant upside potential for STLLR.

“We believe 2025 will be a pivotal year for STLLR,” said Salehi. “With a strong balance sheet supporting our plans, we are focused on advancing key projects. At Tower, we aim to deliver an updated MRE and PEA. The company says it will continue exploration in the Timmins area and progress environmental baseline studies to secure the necessary permits, as it advances Tower to shovelready status.

“We are enthusiastic about the potential of our Hollinger Tailings Project in Timmins. After months of

preparation, we are now set to quantify its value. Recent updates to the Mining Act could position the project as a near-term cash flow opportunity at current gold prices, while furthering our environmental commitment to reclaiming this historical site.”

“Located near existing processing facilities with available capacity, the project presents a promising opportunity for additional mill feed within the Timmins camp. In Q1 2025, we plan to conduct a tailings characterization program. Based on our findings, we will move forward with a mineral resource estimate and if justified, a preliminary economic assessment. With minimal capital requirements, the Hollinger Tailings Project has the potential to be a game changer for STLLR Gold. Stay tuned for updates as we advance this exciting opportunity!”

The past producing Hollinger Mine. Between 1910-1968 the mine produced over 19 million Ounces of high-grade gold. Advancements in technology and recovery methods over the years could lead to potentially unlocking the gold that may be sitting within the tailings.

The Closure of KIDD CREEK MINE

One of Canada’s Most Historic Mines, Reaches the End of Its Life

There’s a non-descript showcase at the Kidd Creek mine-site that visitors and employees walk past every day. It’s a scale model of the Kidd Creek mining complex that includes a small replica of the iconic CN Tower in Toronto. You’d have to stack 5 of those towers on top of one another to reach the bottom of active mining at the Kidd Creek orebody. And that’s the issue. It ain’t easy to mine that deep.

THE ORE GRADE AT 12,000 FEET?

It’s some of the best in the world but it has become way too expensive to get to surface and ultimately to market. So, it’s lights out at the end of 2026.

For six decades, the Kidd Creek Mine in Timmins has been a cornerstone of Northeastern Ontario’s economy and prosperity. Since its discovery in 1963, Kidd Creek became one of the world’s deepest base metal mines, producing copper, zinc, and silver. However, after over 60 years of extraction, the mine is reaching the end of its productive life, and its closure is set to become one of the largest civil projects in the region’s history.

A LEGACY OF PRODUCTION

Over its six decades of operation, Kidd Creek has yielded enormous quantities of metals, contributing significantly to global supply chains: Copper: Over 9 million tonnes produced. Zinc: More than 10 million tonnes extracted. Silver: Approximately 500 million ounces recovered

These numbers highlight the mine’s immense contribution to the mining industry, reinforcing its status as one of Canada’s most productive base metal deposits.

THE SCALE OF THE CLOSURE PROJECT

Mine closures are complex undertakings that involve environmental rehabilitation, infrastructure decommissioning, and long-term monitoring. The Kidd Creek closure project is particularly challenging due to the mine’s depth, extensive infrastructure, and environmental considerations.

KEY ASPECTS OF THE CLOSURE

Underground Infrastructure Decommissioning

- Kidd Creek is among the deepest mines in the world, reaching a depth of over 3,000 meters.

- The closure requires extensive planning to safely decommission underground workings, remove equipment, and prevent future hazards such as subsidence.

- Concrete bulkheads and backfilling will be used to seal off sections of the mine, ensuring long-term stability.

Surface Remediation & Demolition

- The site includes processing facilities, tailings storage areas, and administrative buildings.

- Demolishing structures and removing hazardous materials is a major part of the closure project.

- The land will be reclaimed with

vegetation and natural drainage systems to restore the landscape.

Water Management & Environmental Protection

- Kidd Creek has extensive water treatment systems to manage runoff and prevent contamination of local water sources.

- Post-closure, water treatment will continue for years, requiring significant investment in monitoring and maintenance.

Economic & Workforce Transition

- Hundreds of workers and contractors are impacted by the closure, requiring job transition programs and economic diversification efforts in the region.

- The City of Timmins and the Ontario government are working to support displaced workers and attract new industries to the area.

A MULTI-YEAR, MULTI-MILLION-DOLLAR EFFORT

Mine closures don’t happen overnight. The full decommissioning of Kidd Creek could take a decade or more, with long-term monitoring extending beyond that. Estimates suggest the closure costs will reach hundreds of millions of dollars, making it one of the largest industrial shutdowns in Northern Ontario history. While the mine’s closure marks the end of an era, it also sets the stage for environmental restoration and future economic opportunities. The lessons learned from this project will serve as a model for other deepmine closures worldwide.

MCEWEN MINING Eyes Strategic Growth in 2025

Poised for expansion, McEwen Mining sets the stage for a transformative year

Toronto-based McEwen Mining Inc., a mid-tier gold producer with a diversified portfolio across North America and Argentina, is positioning itself for a pivotal year in 2025. Following a year of operational resilience and financial optimization, the company is sharpening its focus on resource expansion and long-term growth, mainly through its flagship assets in Canada and Argentina.

LAYING THE FOUNDATION: A Look Back at 2024

Throughout 2024, McEwen Mining demonstrated solid execution despite a challenging global mining environment. The company delivered production within its annual guidance range and reported increased revenues, largely driven by a favorable gold price environment and disciplined cost control measures.

“Our strategy has always been to create value by combining steady production with bold exploration,” said Rob McEwen, the company’s Chairman and Chief Owner. “In 2024,

we made tangible progress on both fronts, and now we’re turning that momentum into strategic growth.”

Two key pillars—the Fox Complex in Ontario and the Los Azules copper project in Argentina—are shaping the company’s trajectory. Together, they represent McEwen’s dual commitment to maintaining a strong gold foundation while advancing into the critical minerals space.

FOX COMPLEX: Renewed Investment in Canada’s Greenstone

Belt

The Fox Complex, located near Timmins, Ontario, has long been a cornerstone of McEwen’s Canadian gold operations. Over the past year, the company intensified its exploration activities in the region, with particular focus on the Grey Fox area.

In February 2024, McEwen reported promising drill results from the Gibson Zone, including an assay of 17.7 grams per tonne of gold over 8 meters. These findings bolstered confidence in the district’s resource potential and led to an expanded $9.7 million exploration budget allocated for 2025. However, the transition from the Froome Mine to the Stock Mine—an integral part of the complex’s long-term strategy—has not been without hurdles. Regulatory delays have shifted the anticipated start of commercial production at Stock into early 2026.

Still, McEwen sees these delays as temporary setbacks rather than strategic roadblocks. The company continues to invest in drilling and development to ensure a seamless operational handoff and to maintain production continuity across the complex.

LOS AZULES: Unlocking

One of the World’s Largest Undeveloped Copper Projects Farther south, in Argentina’s San Juan Province, McEwen is advancing what may become its most transformative asset: the Los Azules copper project. Envisioned as one of the largest undeveloped copper deposits globally, Los Azules is central to McEwen’s vision of entering the critical minerals supply chain. With the feasibility study slated for release in June 2025, expectations are high.

FINANCIAL MOVES AND EXTERNAL INVESTMENTS

McEwen Mining has also taken important steps to strengthen its financial flexibility. In January 2024, the company amended its credit agreement to extend repayment terms, while simultaneously reducing its outstanding debt by $20 million. These moves provide additional runway for investment without compromising balance sheet health. As part of its broader resource expansion strategy, McEwen also made a $6.93 million investment in Goliath Resources Limited, gaining exposure to high-grade gold and silver assets in British Columbia’s Golden Triangle—one of Canada’s most prospective mining regions.

LOOKING AHEAD: A Calculated Push into 2025

With exploration ramping up at Grey Fox, a major copper feasibility study on the horizon, and a strengthened financial position, McEwen Mining is entering 2025 with ambition—and focus. “We remain committed to disciplined execution, smart investment, and unlocking the value within our portfolio,” said Rob McEwen. “2025 will be a year where our vision begins to take tangible shape.” As the mining sector continues to evolve, particularly around the demand for critical metals and the integration of ESG priorities, McEwen Mining appears well-positioned to not only grow—but lead.

The Growing Interest in Hydrogen Exploration

Don’t

look now, but exploration companies are not just looking for critical or precious minerals these days. Hydrogen, the most abundant element in the universe, is gaining significant attention as a potential solution to global energy and environmental challenges. Recently, exploration companies have begun searching for naturally occurring hydrogen sources, sparking a new wave of interest in this versatile element. This article explores why hydrogen is important, the reasons behind its sudden popularity, and the opportunities presented by natural hydrogen.

THE

SUDDEN INTEREST IN HYDROGEN

The renewed focus on hydrogen stems from several factors:

1. Global Push for Decarbonization

Governments worldwide are seeking alternatives to fossil fuels to combat climate change. Hydrogen offers a carbon-free energy source that could help meet these goals. For example, the U.S. Department of Energy has invested millions into research on hydrogen extraction technologies.

2. Challenges with Current Hydrogen Production Methods

Most commercial hydrogen is produced using fossil fuels, which emit carbon dioxide. While “green hydrogen,” made through electrolysis using renewable energy, is cleaner, it remains expensive at $7 per kilogram compared to $2 per kilogram for conventional methods. Naturally occurring hydrogen could provide a cost-effective and environmentally friendly alternative.

3. Discovery of Natural Hydrogen Deposits

Scientists have found vast stores of natural hydrogen within the Earth’s crust, generated through water-rock reactions involving iron-rich minerals. These deposits may offer renewable supplies of hydrogen that can be extracted like oil or gas.

4. Technological Advances

Companies are leveraging modern exploration techniques to locate natural hydrogen “hot spots.” For instance, MAX Power Mining Corp. has developed specialized soil gas sampling methods to identify promising drilling sites in Canada. Similarly, HyTerra and Gold Hydrogen are exploring areas with high concentrations of hydrogen in the United States and Australia.

OPPORTUNITIES WITH NATURAL HYDROGEN

Natural hydrogen—often referred to as “white” or “gold” hydrogen— has several advantages:

• Low Carbon Emissions

Unlike conventional methods of hydrogen production, extracting natural hydrogen does not rely on burning fossil fuels. This makes it a cleaner option for powering industries and transportation systems.

• Economic Potential Natural hydrogen could be cheaper to produce than green hydrogen, reducing costs for industries transitioning away from fossil fuels.

• Renewable Supply

Unlike oil and gas, which take millions of years to form, natural hydrogen is continuously generated through geological processes. This makes it a potentially sustainable energy source.

CHALLENGES

Despite its promise, there are hurdles to overcome before natural hydrogen can be widely adopted:

• Storage and Transportation Hydrogen’s low density makes it difficult to store and transport efficiently.

• Exploration Risks

Identifying viable deposits requires advanced technology and significant investment.

• Market Development

Building infrastructure for natural hydrogen extraction and distribution will take time.

The exploration of natural hydrogen represents a new frontier in the quest for clean energy solutions. As governments and industries push toward net-zero emissions, this abundant element could play a pivotal role in reshaping the global energy landscape. With advances in technology and growing investment, natural hydrogen may soon become a cornerstone of sustainable energy systems.

ONTARIO DOUBLES DOWN ON HYDROGEN: $30 Million Innovation

Fund Fuels Job Growth, Energy Security and Clean Tech Leadership

Expanded Hydrogen Innovation Fund signals province’s push toward industrial independence and low-carbon prosperity

Ontario is making a decisive bet on hydrogen as a cornerstone of its clean energy future. In a bold move that sends a powerful message to investors, industry, and innovators alike, the provincial government has launched a new $30 million round of its Hydrogen Innovation Fund—doubling the budget of last year’s fund and significantly expanding eligibility to new sectors. “The potential of hydrogen is immense,” said Sam Oosterhoff, Ontario’s Associate Minister of Energy-Intensive Industries. “With applications in transportation, manufacturing and heavy industry already transforming how we power our economy, this investment protects Ontario workers and jobs while securing our province’s economic future.”

OOSTERHOFF’S REMARKS REFLECT THE GOVERNMENT’S BROADER VISION

To position Ontario not just as a participant in the global hydrogen economy, but as a leader in low-carbon innovation capable of transforming industries, supply chains, and communities across the province.

A STRATEGIC EXPANSION

HYDROGEN:

The updated Hydrogen Innovation Fund, administered by the Independent Electricity System Operator (IESO), is no longer focused solely on clean electricity. The 2025 program will now fund hydrogen initiatives that:

• Support Ontario’s electricity grid, including hydrogen storage and generation, peaking capacity, and long-term renewable energy storage.

• Enable sector-wide applications, such as clean transportation, low-emission manufacturing, and hydrogen production hubs.

Stephen Lecce, Minister of Energy and Mines, linked the decision directly to the province’s growing need for domestic energy independence in the face of geopolitical uncertainty. “The world has changed with the election of President Trump,” he said. “That’s why we are embracing an ‘all of the above’ strategy to secure affordable Canadian energy sources and end dependency on the United States.”

Ontario’s Industrial Catalyst

The government’s expanded investment is part of a larger suite of initiatives under the Affordable Energy Future strategy, which includes:

• A first-ever integrated energy plan for electricity, natural gas, and fuels.

• Expansion of nuclear generation, including new small modular reactors at Darlington and refurbishment at Pickering.

• New transmission infrastructure to power electric vehicle and battery manufacturing hubs.

• Energy efficiency programs aimed at keeping costs down for families and businesses.

• The largest competitive clean energy procurement in the province’s history.

Hydrogen’s role is central to that strategy, with the IESO’s Pathways to Decarbonization report projecting up to 15,000 MW of hydrogen generation capacity by 2050—a linchpin in Ontario’s pursuit of a zero-emissions grid.

BUILDING ON PROVEN SUCCESS

The 2023 Hydrogen Innovation Fund supported 15 pilot projects, investing $13.8 million in applications ranging from clean fuel for industrial operations to grid-integrated hydrogen generation.

That early success has laid the groundwork for broader adoption and market confidence.

“These investments will provide important learnings about how lowcarbon hydrogen can be integrated into Ontario’s reliable and affordable electricity system,” said Lesley Gallinger, President and CEO of IESO. “They’re powering economic development across the province.”

Ontario’s strategy also dovetails with Natural Resources Canada’s modelling, which shows hydrogen could make up 18% of the country’s energy use by 2050, creating up to 135,000 jobs nationwide.

INDUSTRY & COMMUNITY APPLAUD THE MOVE

Hydrogen Ontario’s Maike Althaus called the new fund a “game-changer” for building resilient supply chains and advancing Canadian technology. “From vehicles and electrolyzers to mining and steel, let’s seize Ontario’s hydrogen opportunity,” she said.

Meanwhile, Jim Payne, CEO of dynaCERT—one of Ontario’s leading hydrogen tech innovators—emphasized the fund’s role in scaling up industrial innovation. “This kind of targeted support helps companies like ours grow domestic manufacturing and create good-paying jobs right here in Ontario,” he said.

Echoing that local impact, MPP Mohamed Firin noted, “York South–Weston is home to innovative businesses like dynaCERT. This investment will help grow local manufacturing and strengthen Ontario’s position in hydrogen innovation.”

WHAT’S NEXT?

While the application window for the 2025 Hydrogen Innovation Fund has not yet opened, successful applicants are expected to be notified in early 2026. The government has also concluded consultations on a renewed Low-Carbon Hydrogen Strategy, with further updates promised in the coming months. For the Ontario government, this is more than just another investment announcement. It is a calculated step to build a clean, self-reliant industrial base, one where hydrogen is no longer a “fuel of the future,” but a backbone of the province’s energy and economic sovereignty. “We’re backing Ontario jobs, competitiveness, and long-term prosperity,” said Oosterhoff.

As Ontario positions itself at the global forefront of hydrogen innovation, the message is clear: The future is being built here. And it’s powered by hydrogen.

The beginning of the journey for MAGNA MINING

Now a copper producer in the Sudbury Basin

Magna Mining Inc., a key player in the Sudbury Basin’s mining sector, has recently achieved significant milestones that underscore its growth trajectory and commitment to operational excellence.

Strategic Acquisition of KGHM Properties

In March, Magna completed the acquisition of a portfolio of base metal assets from KGHM International Ltd. This strategic move includes the producing McCreedy West copper mine, the past-producing Levack, Podolsky, and Kirkwood mines, as well as several exploration assets. The acquisition was finalized under a share purchase agreement announced in 2024. “We are excited to close this acquisition, which is transformational for our company,” said Jason Jessup, CEO. “Magna now owns and operates a producing copper mine and four additional permitted, past-producing copper, nickel, and precious metal projects in the Sudbury region, along with a portfolio of exceptional exploration properties.” One of the properties in the portfolio was the past-producing Podolsky Mine, which attracted a lot of attention in the mid 2000’s as the site of the famous ‘yellow brick road’; an outcrop of extremely high-grade massive sulphide chalcopyrite in the North Zone. The Podolsky property is approximately 30 kilometres northnortheast of Sudbury. It contains the

former Inco Whistle open pit, which operated from 1988 to 1991 and again from 1994 to 1997, producing 5.7 million tons grading 1.0% Ni and 0.3% Cu. Subsequent to FNX acquiring the property in 2002, it was renamed the Podolsky property in September 2004, in honour of Terry Podolsky, a distinguished Inco geologist from 1954 until his retirement in 1990.

FNX Mining explored and developed the high grade, Cu-Ni_PGE Podolsky 2000 Deposit in the mid 2000’s. One of the early surface diamond drillholes in the 2000 Deposit intersected 34.7 metres grading 13.8% Cu, 1.0% Ni and 8.1 g/t Pt-Pd-Au. In May 2004, FNX approved an advanced underground exploration program at the Podolsky 2000 deposit, including a 17-ft-diameter, 2,500-ft shaft, commencing in March 2005. Development reached the 2000 Deposit in mid 2007 on the 2450 level, with one of the initial drifts developing through 38.2 metres 17.8% Cu, 1.1 % Ni, and 7.9 g/t Pt+Pd+Au. FNX declared commercial production at the Podolsky Mine on January 1st, 2008, and operated the mine through 2013.

Impressive Assay Results at McCreedy West and Levack Mines

Following the acquisition, Magna Mining reported notable assay results from drilling activities at the McCreedy West and Levack mines. At McCreedy West, highlights include drill hole FNX33323, which intersected 4.4% Cu, 0.6% Ni, and 13.8 g/t Pt + Pd + Au over 18.0 meters, including a higher-grade section of 8.2% Cu, 0.8% Ni, and 7.5 g/t Pt + Pd + Au over 7.3 meters. At the Levack Mine, drill hole MLV-25-01 returned 24.9% Cu, 0.4% Ni, and 5.0 g/t Pt + Pd + Au over 1.6 meters. “The results today include high-grade copper intersections at the McCreedy West and Levack Mines, which continue to demonstrate the quality of resources remaining at both sites,” said Dave King, Senior Vice President of Exploration and Geoscience.

Operational Enhancements and Future Outlook

In addition to exploration successes, Magna Mining has initiated several operational improvements at the McCreedy West Mine. These initiatives aim to streamline processes, enhance grade control, and increase efficiency. A renewed focus on underground development is expected to provide access to additional ore mining areas, thereby increasing production flexibility and efficiency. The company plans to release detailed production plans for McCreedy West before the end of Q2 2025. “We have begun the necessary investments and changes at the McCreedy West Mine to bring it to what we believe is an optimal, sustainable production level,” said Jessup. With these strategic acquisitions, promising assay results, and operational enhancements, Magna Mining is wellpositioned for substantial growth in the coming years, reinforcing its status as a significant contributor to Canada’s mining industry.

Gold Leads the Charge in NORTHWESTERN ONTARIO Mining & Exploration Developments in Q1

Northwestern Ontario gold production at year-end 2024 was 1.05 million ounces. Mines contributing to the total include: Red Lake Mine (Evolution Mining), Musselwhite Mine (Orla Mining), Hemlo Mine (Barrick Gold), Rainy River Mine (New Gold), Eagle River Mine (Wesdome Gold Mines), Island Gold Complex (Alamos Gold) and Greenstone Mine (Equinox Gold). With the yellow metal touching on US$3000/oz, that has ratcheted up the level of optimism in the sector for projects at a variety of maturity levels.

Equinox Gold Corp. and Calibre Mining Corp., on February 23, 2025 entered into a definitive arrangement agreement whereby Equinox acquired all Calibre shares. Equinox at the Greenstone Mine will continue to ramp gold production, over a full year for the first time; guidance is 300,000-350,000 ounces annually. The “new” Equinox now having the Valentine Deposit in the fold (Newfoundland), will soon become Canada’s second largest gold producer. From a geological perspective, the Wabigoon Subprovince of the Canadian Shield had zero active gold production in 2015; remarkably by year end 2025 the Rainy River Mine and the Greenstone Mine will contribute 550,000 ounces of gold to the Northwestern Ontario total, annually!

Authored by John Mason, D.Sc., P. Geo., and backed by the Thunder Bay Community Economic Development Commission, this article offers a comprehensive overview of mining and exploration activity in Northwestern Ontario for the first quarter of 2025.

Kinross Gold, ninth ranked global gold producer, accelerated advanced exploration at the Great Bear Gold Project, Red Lake. Development of an exploration decline has commenced with the objective of allowing bulk sampling and underground drilling. Ultimately the future 500,000 ounce annual producer will be an open pit and underground mine. The deposit is a 6.6 million ounce resource. In March, at PDAC 2025, Kinross entered into a partnership with the Centre of Excellence for Sustainable Mining and Exploration (CESME—Lakehead University) to fund a research chair position to the tune of $ 500,000.

West Red Lake Gold Mines continue on many fronts toward a mine reopening at Madsen Mine, Red Lake. The company released a positive pre-feasibility study this year. Projected highlights include : 8.2 g/t head grades, 67,600 ounces of annual gold production, 7.2 year life of mine (LOM), and with other near surface high grade zones to be assessed. Maurice Mostert, VP Technical Services, stated that shaft dewatering and additional gold target identification continues at Madsen. In addition, he indicated that the strategic approach by West Red Lake Gold Mines to bulk sample (using the mill for processing) and compare with drill hole assays, has been invaluable and will continue.

Frontier Lithium acquired the former Thunder Bay Generating Station site on the Thunder Bay waterfront for a lithium convertor build. The property is 233 acres, zoned heavy industrial and hosting electrical, road and seaway access attributes. At PDAC 2025, Frontier and federal/provincial officials jointly announced execution of a Letter of Intent specific to funding of $240M toward construction of a lithium conversion facility on the Thunder Bay site. The PAK deposit, located north of Red Lake, once in production, would provide lithium concentrate to the convertor. Lithium hydroxide and battery-grade lithium salts would be then produced. PAK life of mine (LOM) is 24 years.

Equinox Gold Greenstone Mine

Green Technology Metals have advanced work with partners EcoPro and LG Energy Solutions to design, build, produce and market lithium products. In addition, Export Development Canada have provided a Letter of Intent for up to $100M. Led by CEO Cam Henry, Green Technology entered into an agreement to secure a lithium conversion facility site on Mid-Continental Terminal’s lands, at Thunder Bay’s waterfront. Recent exploration results at Root and Seymour Lake have been encouraging with the global lithium resource now at 30.4 million tonnes.

Volta Metals, on the Aki Lithium-Cesium-Tantalum Project, located north of Lake Nipigon, continue to evaluate six pegmatite dykes, controlled on an 8 km trend.

Rock Tech Lithium, recipient of a $1.4M Critical Minerals Infrastructure Fund award, continues to advance the Georgia Lake project located northeast of Nipigon. Rock Tech has merged with Arcore AG in Germany, as they build Germany’s first lithium convertor. BMW is a significant supporter of the Georgia Lake project. Immediately south, Imagine Lithium, at the Jackpot Project works to add to the lithium resource via an aggressive exploration program this field season. The Jackpot and Casino Royale resource is 8.4 million tonnes.

Avalon Advanced Materials and SCR-Sibelco NV announced a 28% increase in Measured and Indicated mineral resource tonnage at Separation Rapids. The deposit is now a 10.73 million tonne deposit grading 1.27 % Li2O. Lilypad Lake, located in the Fort Hope area, will see an exploration program for cesium, tantalum and lithium.

International Lithium hold the Raleigh Lake Project, located southwest of Ignace. The deposit hosts a 6.2 million tonne lithium resource.

On March 3rd, Orla Mining Ltd. completed the $850M acquisition of the Musselwhite Mine from Newmont. The mine is a 6 million ounce historical producer over 28 years, with a current mine life to 2030 and producing 202,000 ounces per year. Orla Mining have announced plans for an aggressive $25M exploration campaign to test up to 3 km of mineralized strike, with significant down plunge potential on the PQ Zone. Orla also has gold production in Mexico.

At Dryden, Dryden Gold and Nexgold Mining Corp. are advancing gold projects. Dryden Gold have a fully funded exploration program for 2025 with the Sherridon Property set to receive a 3D inversion study performed by Mira Geoscience; drilling will follow. Nexgold completed a new Relationship Agreement with the Wabigoon Lake Ojibway Nation for the Goliath Mine Project. Down dip drill targets at the C Zone have been identified, below the current 3 million ounce resource, as part of a 25,000 metre exploration drill program designed for resource

expansion. A feasibility study for Goliath will be completed in Q2 of 2025 by Nexgold, during an exciting time for this future open pit and underground project.

Goldshore Resources continued to advance toward an H1 2025 preliminary economic assessment completion, featuring a phased production approach at the Moss Deposit. The current mineral resource estimate is 6.74 million ounces. The 23 km favourable strike length has revealed mineralization at depth below the Southwest Zone as well as an additional new shallow gold zone; both could add to the resource.

Kesselrun Reources Ltd. released sample results for the Minoletti and McKellar West Zones, of the Huronian Gold Project, located west of the Goldshore ResourcesMoss Deposit. 1.4 km of strike length will be further evaluated culminating in a late 2025 drill program.

Immediately west of Thunder Bay, Delta Resources at the Delta-1 Gold Project, have had encouraging drill results at the Eureka Gold Zone. Mineralization lies in an envelope 2.5 km by up to 150 m. wide. Thunder Gold, at the Tower Mountain Gold Project—Shabaqua, have commenced a comprehensive magnetic survey and drill program, the latter testing the P-Target Zone and gaps in the Western Contact Zone. The Goal is to complete a NI 43-101 mineral resource estimate.

Alamos Gold continued with rationalizing infrastructure at the Island Gold Complex, which includes the Magino orebody (open pit), mill and Phase 3 + deepening of the shaft at the Island orebody. Collectively the complex is one of Canada’s highest grade and lowest cost gold mines. Increased annual production is planned, synchronized with aggressive exploration drilling adding ounces. Wesdome’s Eagle River Mine is receiving significant drill budgeting designed to expand the current mineral resource. 300 Zone (main reserve) and 6 Central zone are the priority drill targets. A remarkable 115,000 metres of drilling were completed with results feeding a

resource model initiative. Surface infrastructure is also being upgraded at Eagle River.

Wyloo continued working with Hatch Engineering on completing a feasibility study for the Eagles Nest (and Blackbird) deposit(s).

Clean Air Metals at Thunder Bay North released winter drill results at the Current Deposit, including an impressive 41.0 metres grading 13.2 g/t pt.eq. Modelling suggests structures similar to the JM Reef-Stillwater Complex may be in play.

Generation Mining on the Marathon Palladium-Copper Deposit received three outstanding approvals from Ministry of Natural Resources and Forestry, toward construction planning. A revised feasibility study was completed and filed; capital cost for the mine/mill/infrastructure build is C$992M; IRR is 24%. Wheaton Precious Metals (stream) and Export Development Canada-ING Capital-

(hole SP24-011) 0.75 g/t gold over 134.2 m. and 0.67 g/t gold over 105.4 m. The mineralization is located within the pre-feasibility study open pit development footprint. In addition, First Majestic is amending terms of the silver stream final payment and will provide $5M cash.

Laurion Mineral Exploration Inc. at the Ishkoday Property, has contracted Quantec Geoscience to conduct a deep penetrating Titan DCIP and magnetotelluric survey. Focus will be on the Brenbar and Sturgeon River Mine(s) areas with the goal of enhancing understanding of the structural and lithological framework.

Evolution Mining at the Red Lake Mine is on track to increase gold production to 125,000-150,000 ounces for 2025. Ore reserves are 12.4 million tonnes grading 6.87 g/t gold, for 2.7 million ounces.

Vault Minerals, at the Sugar Zone Mine released a mineral reserve of 1.9 million tonnes grading 5.2 g/t for 325,000 ounces, and a mineral resource of 4.8 million tonnes grading 8.2g/t, for 1.28 million ounces. The mine is poised for a future restart; no dates have been shared.

Barrick Gold (Hemlo) produced 143,000 ounces of gold in 2024. Barminco, the main underground contractor, signed a contract extension until 2029.

There is no doubt other active exploration projects in Northwestern Ontario will graduate to the major exploration class, led by gold, in 2025!

KINROSS GOLD Riding Wave of Cash Flow as Company Eyes Startup in Red Lake

Willthe Great Bear be Ontario’s next great gold mine? The 2024 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for Kinross Gold Corporation’s Great Bear Project in Red Lake, Ontario, is a recipe for the project’s potential as a high-margin operation with robust economics. Kinross Gold has entered 2025 with momentum few can match in the gold space. With 2 million ounces of production, all-in sustaining costs holding at $1,100 per ounce, and a record $1.3 billion in free cash flow, the company not only repaid a $1 billion term loan but also posted a 123% increase in share price over the year.

“I’m a big believer in corporate culture,” said CEO Paul Rollinson in a recent interview. “It starts with strong technical acumen. Our guidance is rigorous. We scrub the numbers between technical services and our mine sites, so when we publish guidance, it’s been well validated.”

Hitting production guidance was the first step. The real win came from holding the line on costs—something most of Kinross’ peers couldn’t manage in a rising price environment. While gold prices were up 24%, Kinross expanded its margins by 37%.

“That margin expansion was driven by discipline,” said Rollinson. “We stayed focused on costs even as prices rose.”

Beyond the numbers, the company’s capital strategy also bore fruit. As promised, Kinross prioritized debt

repayment and cleared the $1 billion term loan it took on to acquire the Great Bear project. With over $600 million in cash at year-end, the company entered 2025 with a healthy balance sheet and investment-grade status.

Rollinson explained that Q1 is traditionally a “cash-out quarter” due to interest payments, tax season in Brazil, and other front-loaded costs. Despite that, Kinross expects to rebuild its cash and revisit share buybacks by Q2.

Key to controlling costs and boosting margins was Kinross’ ongoing commitment to grade enhancement across its portfolio. High-grade contributions from the Manh Choh proj-

ect in Alaska and Phase X underground at Round Mountain have helped offset inflationary pressures. Tasiast, now running a 24,000-tonper-day mill, has become the company’s lowest-cost asset.

“Higher grade feed is a huge lever,” Rollinson noted. “At Fort Knox, for example, we truck 8-gram material to blend with sub-1 gram feed. The impact on margins is immediate.”

Some gold miners have responded to the price surge by raising reserve prices. Kinross has done the same, but Rollinson is quick to point out that the company remains focused on cash flow—not inflating reserve estimates for the sake of optics. “We haven’t dropped cutoff

grades,” he said. “Our mills are full. We’re not trying to juice numbers. We’re here to generate real margin.”

Internally, Kinross continues to maintain a disciplined capital allocation model. The company hosts monthly capital competitions where mine sites must justify their investment proposals. Rollinson said this helps reinforce high standards and keeps risk in check.

“We run a tight ship. We maintain our assets well, and that gives us lower operational risk.”

The crown jewel in Kinross’ development pipeline is undoubtedly the Great Bear project in Ontario. Acquired in 2022, the high-grade asset is progressing through advanced exploration, with 7 million ounces now drilled out. The company expects to break ground on the decline by year-end.

“Three years ago, people questioned the Great Bear deal,” said Rollinson. “Today, it’s a 500,000-ounce-

per-year project with projected all-in costs of $800 per ounce and a potential $1 billion in annual cash flow at spot prices.”

While peers have chased deals to keep up with industry consolidation, Kinross has stayed selective. In the past decade, it’s made just three acquisitions—each described by Rollinson as “bolt-on deals with clear synergies.”

“We’re not under pressure. We have the technical team, the pipe -

line, and the balance sheet. If we see something great, we’ll move. Otherwise, we wait.”

Looking ahead, Kinross has earmarked approximately $1.15 billion for capital expenditures in 2025, with about half focused on growth. Besides Great Bear, the company is progressing the Lobo-Marte project in Chile and Redbird in Nevada.

“We think we can do both—fund growth and return capital to shareholders,” Rollinson said. “We’re reactivating our buyback program in the second half.”

Among its many milestones for 2025, Kinross aims to begin decline development at Great Bear, continue permitting at La Coipa, and ramp up satellite developments like Redbird.

“Our free cash flow per ounce is among the best in the industry,” said Rollinson. “We think we’re still a compelling value. And 2025 is shaping up to be another strong year.”

CLEAN AIR METALS

Discovers Expanded High-Grade Zones at Thunder Bay North

CleanAir Metals is continu -

ing to build momentum at its 100%-owned Thunder Bay North Critical Minerals Project (“TBN”) after a series of recent drill results confirmed the presence of significantly more near-surface, high-grade mineralization than previously estimated. Results from the company’s 2025 winter drill program at the Current deposit have not only validated the resource model but appear to be reshaping it.

Hole CL25-005 returned what the company calls a breakthrough intercept: 41.0 metres grading 13.2 grams per tonne (g/t) platinum equivalent (Pt.eq), including a higher-grade core of 10.0 metres at 1.57% copper and 22.39 g/t Pt.eq. Within that section, a 2.0-metre interval returned a staggering 33.3 g/t Pt.eq, indicating the presence of sulfide-rich subzones that could significantly enhance the deposit’s economic potential. “These latest results have validated our belief that the Current deposit hosts more near-surface high-grade mineralization than previously estimated,” said CEO Mike Garbutt. “The impressive grade and significant thickness encountered during the recent drilling programs provide additional support for establishing a more robust, high-grade production model.”

Ballroom-Style Mineralization Reframes Resource Outlook

The geological model for the Current deposit is undergoing a reassessment as a result of these new findings. The shape and structural setting of the high-grade intercepts resemble the “Ballroom” zones of the JM Reef in Montana’s Stillwater Complex—a known analog for worldclass platinum-palladium mineralization. Unlike earlier interpretations that

confined high-grade zones to predictable layers, hole CL25005 suggests mineralization has in truded into the footwall, indicating broader distribution than previously believed.

This new understanding of miner alization geometry significantly ex pands the exploration potential, par ticularly when paired with borehole electromagnetic (BHEM) geophysics. Clean Air Metals is ramping up the density of BHEM-guided drilling to identify similar subzones at both the Current and Escape deposits.

Earlier Results Underscored Momentum

The first batch of assays from the winter 2025 campaign had already begun to hint at this new potential. Hole CL25-002 returned 21.4 metres grading 7.64 g/t Pt.eq, including standout sections of 10.39 and 11.86 g/t Pt.eq over 5.75 and 6.4 metres, respectively. Hole CL25-001 delivered 49.0 metres at 4.63 g/t Pt.eq, with internal zones as high as 8.15 g/t and 7.66 g/t Pt.eq. These early holes confirmed that high-grade mineralization is not only present but more widespread than previously thought. Notably, several of the intercepts occurred near surface, within economically viable depths for potential underground extraction.

Refining the Model for a High-Grade Future

The significance of the CL25-005 intercept is not just the grade or thickness—it’s the structural implications. The results suggest that previous models may have underestimated the vertical and lateral extent of the deposit’s richest zones. Future resource estimations will need to incorporate these newly recognized

Garbutt emphasized the forward-looking implications: “The results have highlighted the critical importance of leveraging downhole geophysics to locate the highest-value mineralization targets at Current and Escape as we continue to advance the Thunder Bay North Project.”

Exploration Strategy Moving Forward

Clean Air Metals’ winter 2025 drill program is designed to increase the size, grade, and confidence level of near-surface zones in the Current deposit. With results pending for seven additional holes, the company is optimistic that more high-grade discoveries may be on the horizon.

By using a combination of traditional drilling and advanced geophysical targeting, Clean Air Metals aims to not only validate but expand the known resource base—ultimately supporting a low-tonnage, highgrade production scenario.

The Thunder Bay North Project, now on the cusp of a redefined exploration narrative, is positioning itself as a significant critical minerals asset in North America. The recent assays, structural reinterpretation, and intensified geophysicalguided targeting have placed Clean Air Metals in a stronger position to unlock the full value of its mineral endowment.

FRONTIER LITHIUM ’s Thunder Bay Vision Gains Traction with Government Support and Strategic Land Acquisition

Frontier

Lithium is rapidly position-

ing itself at the epicentre of Canada’s clean energy transformation with a series of bold moves in Northwestern Ontario. With a governmentbacked vision, strategic land acquisition, and a clear roadmap toward integrated lithium processing, the company is laying the groundwork for a vertically integrated lithium supply chain in the heart of Ontario.

Earlier this spring, Frontier Lithium announced it had secured Letters of Intent (LOIs) from both the federal and provincial governments expressing support for its proposed lithium conversion facility in Thunder Bay. The facility is designed to process spodumene concentrate from Frontier’s PAK Lithium Project into approximately 20,000 tonnes of battery-grade lithium salts annually—enough to support the production of batteries for roughly 500,000 electric vehicles each year.

While the LOIs are non-binding and do not guarantee funding, they mark a significant step in aligning the company with Canada’s and Ontario’s critical minerals strategies. The company emphasized that negotiations are ongoing and subject to customary conditions before any contribution agreements can be finalized.

“Today marks a significant milestone in our journey to establish fully integrated lithium operations in Northwestern Ontario,” said Trevor R. Walker, President and CEO of Frontier Lithium. “We are pleased to see support for upstream critical minerals processing comparable to the commitments provided to the downstream manufacturing sector.”

Federal Minister of Natural Resources, Jonathan Wilkinson, echoed this sentiment: “Critical minerals are a generational economic opportunity for Canada. Through SIF, Canada is making smart, targeted investments in the most promising projects.”

Ontario’s Minister of Economic Development, Job Creation and Trade, Vic Fedeli, added: “The frontline of our battle against Donald Trump’s tariffs starts in Northern Ontario with our abundant supply of critical minerals. Frontier Lithium’s interest in expanding their production of strategic minerals in Ontario is yet another vote of confidence in Ontario’s workers and business environment.”

As the funding talks proceed, Frontier has already taken a major step forward in realizing its industrial vision. The company has closed on the acquisition of 183 acres of industrial land on Mission Island in Thunder Bay, including a 50-acre water lot. The site, formerly occupied by an Ontario Power Generation coal-fired plant, is ideally suited for Frontier’s lithium conversion facility, offering access to high-voltage power infra-

structure, water transport, rail, and essential utilities.

“Securing land for Frontier Lithium’s future plans in the City of Thunder Bay marks a pivotal moment for Northern Ontario,” Walker stated. “This investment reinforces Ontario’s strength as a critical hub for Canada’s battery materials sector and the global clean energy transition.”

Thunder Bay Mayor Ken Boshcoff welcomed the move: “Thunder Bay has long been a hub for Ontario’s mining industry. With Frontier as an anchor, we believe Thunder Bay will become a center for critical mineral processing.”

The property will house not only the conversion facility, but also Frontier’s regional office and an innovation centre. The company aims to create a hub for battery-grade lithium processing and research, capable of handling feedstock from both domestic and international sources.

Financing for the land acquisition came from a $3.35 million unsecured convertible loan provided by a related party affiliated with Frontier’s board chair, Reginald (Rick) F. Walker. The company confirmed that the terms of the financing remain subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, particularly regarding the conversion of the loan into common shares.

Frontier’s core asset, the PAK Lithium Project, continues to demonstrate strong fundamentals. A 2023 Pre-Feasibility Study conducted by BBA E&C Inc. outlined a 24-year mine life with a post-tax net present value (NPV) of US$1.74 billion and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 24.1%. The project is held in joint venture with Mitsubishi Corporation, which holds a 7.5% stake.

As the global demand for lithium surges and Western governments scramble to localize their critical mineral supply chains, Frontier Lithium’s initiatives in Thunder Bay could prove pivotal not only for Ontario but for the North American EV ecosystem as a whole.

NORPRO positions itself as a leader in mine site security

Asthe mining industry continues to navigate complex safety demands and evolving operational risks, one Northern Ontario company is building a reputation as a go-to provider of integrated security and health services.

Norpro, founded in 1980 in Sault Ste. Marie, has grown from a small security outfit into a full-service safety and security firm, serving mine sites, refineries, and industrial clients across the North. With licensed guards trained in everything from first aid to x-ray machine operation and RFID tracking, Norpro’s reach— and responsibilities—have never been greater.

“Our clients rely on us not just to protect property, but to ensure the health and well-being of everyone on site,” said Steve Tarchuk, CEO, who acquired the company in 2023. “We’ve modernized our systems and training to reflect the highest industry standards. We’re building something long-lasting.”

Tarchuk has overseen a companywide transformation that includes aligning Norpro’s services with ISO Quality and Health & Safety management systems. The goal: streamline operations, strengthen employee retention, and boost client satisfaction.

“Our security personnel are trained and certified in multiple specialties,” said Mike Steinburg, Nor-

pro’s Operations Manager. “That includes medical response, drug and alcohol detection, precious metal screening, defensive driving—these are highly skilled individuals. By investing in their development, we’re protecting our clients and raising the bar across the industry.”

The company deploys Industrial Security Guards to mine sites across the North, supported by Physical Static, Loss-Prevention, and Mobile Patrol Guards in local communities. All guards carry Ontario security licenses and receive rigorous, ongoing training.

But Norpro’s impact doesn’t end at the gate. Its health and safety team offers specialized consulting and program development, including gap analyses that help mining companies align with regulatory and voluntary standards like COR and ISO 45001.

“We can assess what a client has in place, identify gaps, and build a clear path toward compliance and best practices,” said Shannan Boston, Health & Safety Specialist. “From asbestos abatement to confined spaces and supervisor due diligence, we tailor everything to their real-world needs.”

The company also offers “trainthe-trainer” programs, allowing clients to take internal ownership of their safety culture—something Nor-

pro sees as critical to long-term success.

Jessica Amadio, Industrial Hygiene Specialist, noted that all services are crafted with flexibility in mind. “There’s no one-size-fits-all. We work with mining and industrial clients to meet their specific operational challenges and regulatory obligations,” she said.

To support quality control, Norpro has introduced internal audits, a dedicated quality control lead, and real-time monitoring tools. The technology gives site managers and supervisors access to up-to-the-minute reports, improving both response times and accountability.

“Our focus is on creating systems that work in the real world—not just on paper,” said Tarchuk. “That’s what separates Norpro. We’re building a culture that’s driven by professionalism, reliability, and an unrelenting focus on safety.”

Looking ahead, Norpro is positioning itself as a leader in mine site security—not just in Northern Ontario, but across the broader Canadian industrial landscape.

“The future of the mining industry depends on strong, adaptable partners,” said Tarchuk. “We’re here to grow with our clients and meet the highest expectations every step of the way.”

New Chapter Begins at Musselwhite as ORLA MINING Takes the Reins

Orla Mining has officially stepped into its next phase of growth, completing its transformative acquisition of the Musselwhite gold mine from Newmont Corporation—and wasting no time in kickstarting an ambitious exploration and optimization campaign at the long-lived Canadian operation.

The March 2025 acquisition instantly reshaped Orla into a geographically diversified intermediate producer, more than doubling its annual gold production and establishing a dominant North American presence. Musselwhite, a well-established underground mine in northwestern Ontario, has already delivered nearly 6 million ounces of gold over a 28-year span. But for Orla, the work is only just beginning.

“The addition of Musselwhite transforms Orla into a North American-centred, geographically diversified intermediate gold producer with multiple gold-producing assets and a self-funded growth portfolio,” said Jason Simpson, President and CEO of Orla Mining. “Musselwhite strengthens our North American presence and more than doubles our annual gold production. This important Canadian gold mine also offers growth potential through optimization and mine life extension, something we intend to aggressively pursue.”

AGGRESSIVE 2025 DRILL CAMPAIGN UNDERWAY

Orla has wasted no time getting boots on the ground. The company has launched a robust 2025 exploration program at Musselwhite focused on three key areas:

1. Underground Drilling

A 35,000-metre campaign is underway to replace depleted reserves and expand mineral resources, continuing efforts that had been largely confined to the PQ Deeps zone in recent years.

2. Surface Directional Drilling

A 10,000-metre program launching in Q2 2025 will target the downplunge extension of the Mine Trend, an area that hasn’t seen a surface drill collar since 2020.

3. Near-Mine Exploration

A further 6,500 metres of drilling are planned for five priority near-mine targets within a 10 km radius of the Musselwhite mill. These include Karl Zeemal, Midway, Camp Bay, Bottenfield, and Libert—each showing promising geological signatures and historical gold occurrences.

Historical drilling along the Musselwhite Mine Trend had already confirmed that gold mineralization continues at least one kilometre beyond current reserves. Orla believes there

may be as much as two to three kilometres of untapped strike potential. The renewed exploration focus could unlock additional reserves capable of extending mine life well past 2030.

“We are thrilled to launch this long-overdue, ambitious exploration program at Musselwhite,” said Sylvain Guerard, Orla’s Senior Vice President of Exploration. “Our primary objective is to intersect mineralization beyond the current reserves and resources along the down-plunge extension of the Mine Trend, demonstrating the potential to extend mine life well beyond 2030.”

A BILLION-DOLLAR ASSET IN A NEW ERA

Based on the most recent technical report, Musselwhite carries a mine life to 2030 with average annual gold production of 202,000 ounces at an all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of $1,269 per ounce, but Orla sees far more upside.

The company pegs Musselwhite’s net present value (NPV) at $1 billion (5% discount rate) using a flat $2,500 gold price. The acquisition included $810 million in upfront cash consideration, along with a gold-price-linked contingent payment of $40 million.

The strategic acquisition, executed in less than a decade since Orla’s formation, represents a bold bet on

asset optimization. And investors have responded: Orla has delivered more than a 500% return to shareholders since inception.

COMMITMENT TO COMMUNITY & CONTINUITY

Beyond technical ambitions, Orla is placing strong emphasis on honoring existing relationships across the Musselwhite ecosystem—particularly with Indigenous partners.

“We will maintain all existing relationships and honor all existing contracts with First Nations partners,

businesses, suppliers, contractors, and vendors,” said Simpson. “To the Musselwhite employees, we are thrilled to welcome you to the Orla team and look forward to building upon your foundation of hard work, dedication, and success. We are committed to investing in you and the operation for many years to come and we’re excited to hit the ground running.”

The company’s broader strategy—now supported by three 100%-owned cornerstone assets in Ontario, Mexico, and Nevada—relies

on a focused formula: acquire, develop, and operate properties where Orla’s team can unlock stakeholder value.

With Camino Rojo already operating in Mexico, and South Railroad advancing in Nevada, Musselwhite becomes the Canadian flagship— one with enormous latent potential just beneath the surface.

THE ROAD AHEAD

By the end of 2025, Orla expects to complete the first surface drilling program at Musselwhite since 2020, validate the continuity of mineralization into the PQ Deeps zone and beyond, and identify satellite feed opportunities near the mill. All signs suggest the company is executing a high-speed plan to both de-risk and expand a foundational asset. “We are entering an exciting new chapter for Orla and for Musselwhite,” said Simpson. “The groundwork is in place. Now it’s time to deliver.”

We are where you are.

AROLAND joins MARTEN FALLS and WEBEQUIE in efforts to build roads to Ring of Fire

Efforts to get the Ring of Fire region into production were bolstered earlier this year when Aroland First Nation and the Ontario government announced efforts to build a permanent road between Aroland and Marten Falls.

“I guess you would call it a historic day. And just acknowledge the ministers and the premier behind me. And also, I want to acknowledge my membership of Aroland, the members that pushed us to give us that mandate to make today happen,” said Aroland Chief Sonny Gagnon “But again, this is all about moving forward. We wanted to move on with the development, but again, politics played its role in everything and went stagnant. But now we have an opportunity with my members, my community to attain the skills that we need to be self-sustaining, to make Aroland get off what we’re always on - government funding and all that.” “This will give us an opportunity to move forward, building the road to Marten Falls. I’ve been asked many times are you giving our resources - where I keep telling them this is only for the Marten Falls Road agreement. Ring of Fire will come when the time comes. I’m very encouraged and very excited and I think we’re going to be looking at a lot of opportunities for my community to build what we need to build - to educate the children who we need to educate, to promote health, proper health and

also to try and work with drug issues we have in our community.” Premier Doug Ford, Greg Rickford, Minister of Northern Development and Minister of Indigenous Affairs and First Nations Economic Reconciliation, and Aroland First Nation Chief Sonny Gagnon signed the Shared Prosperity Agreement to drive economic growth and build and upgrade infrastructure in Northern Ontario.

“With the risk of U.S. tariffs, it’s never been more important for us to work together to do everything possible to keep our economy competitive. At the top of the list is unlocking the economic potential of the Ring of Fire region,” said Premier Doug Ford. “These partnerships will transform Northern Ontario with new jobs, growth and opportunities throughout the region. I’m grateful to Chief Sonny Gagnon and Aroland First Nation for their partnership as we sign this historic agreement.”

“ With the risk of U.S. tariffs, it’s never been more important for us to work together to do everything possible to keep our economy competitive ”

This agreement includes support for upgrades to Anaconda and Painter Lake Roads, which are important connections on the road to the Ring of Fire, as well as major new investments in infrastructure and energy transmission in the region. It also builds upon agreements that are in place with other First Nations partners along the entire proposed length of the roads to the Ring of Fire and helps set the stage for further potential partnerships.

The agreement will create opportunities and support the long-term prosperity of Aroland and broader Northern Ontario through strategic investments and partnerships, including:

- Support for upgrading Anaconda Road and Painter Lake Road, including the potential establishment of a Road Advisory Body to help move this work forward. Today’s agreement builds on the Letters of Confirmation signed by Premier Ford in June 2024 at the Gateway to the Ring of Fire that included maintenance and upgrades to Highway 584 and Highway 11. Anaconda and Painter Lake Roads connect to these vital infrastructure links via Highway 643 and will one day connect to the proposed Marten Falls Community Access Road, Northern Road Link and Webequie Supply Road, linking Marten Falls First Nation and Webequie First Nation

to establish an agreement to share the economic benefits of forestry and mining operations in the region. The agreement with Aroland First Nation is a testament to the partnership with Chief Sonny Gagnon and the Aroland community according to Greg Rickford, Minister of Indigenous Affairs and First Nations Economic Reconciliation. “By working together, we are laying the foundation for a prosperous future for the North — one that creates sustainable growth, strengthens critical infrastructure, enhances Northern Ontario’s competitiveness on the global stage and positions Aroland First Nation as an economic leader in the region.”

Infrastructure partnerships with First Nations communities in the region are essential for advancing mining operations, including Greenstone Gold Mine and the Ring of Fire, while building long-term prosperity for First Nations in Ontario’s northern region.

Aroland First Nation is located at the Gateway to the Ring of Fire, 60 kilometres north of Geraldton on Highway 584/643.

In June 2024, the Ontario government signed Letters of Confirmation with Animbiigoo Zaagi’igan Anishinaabek, Aroland First Nation, Ginoogaming First Nation, and Long Lake #58 First Nation to support economic and resource development in Northern Ontario.

As announced in April 2024, Ontario is working in partnership with Webequie, Nibinamik, Neskantaga, Eabametoong, and Marten Falls First Nations on clean and reliable electricity opportunities, ending their reliance on diesel generation.

In November 2024, Ontario announced the completion of critical highway infrastructure improvements in the Greenstone area of Northern Ontario, which will enhance connections to the provincial highway network for First Nations and support the province’s efforts to unlock the region’s economic potential.

AMEX EXPLORATION

Expands District-Scale Ambitions at Perron with Land Acquisition, Aggressive 2025 Drill Program,

and New High-Grade Discoveries

Amex

Exploration announced a major expansion of its flagship Perron Project this spring, bolstered by a significant land acquisition and a robust 2025 exploration campaign that is already yielding new high-grade gold intercepts.

New Land Acquisition Positions Amex for District-Scale Dominance

In March, Amex announced a transformative acquisition that quadruples its land holdings around the Perron Project in northwestern Abitibi, Quebec. The newly acquired “Perron West Project” adds 15,192 hectares in Ontario and another 1,737 hectares adjoining Perron to the west and south in Quebec. This brings Amex’s total controlled land position to nearly 20,000 hectares, granting it commands over more than 35 kilometres of the prolific Normétal Fault and 9 kilometres of the Perron Fault.

“We are excited by the discovery potential that this land acquisition provides,” said Executive Chairman Jacques Trottier. “The package boasts seven gold and five copper showings, and we believe we have identified a geological mirror image of the Beaupré Block — the host of all our current gold discoveries.”

The acquisition comes with a suite of modern exploration data including VTEM, LiDAR, and soil sampling. ALS Goldspot has assisted with target generation, laying the foundation for future discovery on this never-beforeconsolidated land package.

Aggressive 2025 Drill Plan Targets Growth and Blue-Sky Potential

In February, the company detailed a fully funded 2025 drill campaign with two main objectives: expansion of known zones and regional exploration to test uncharted terrain.

“We have a fantastic opportunity at Perron to continue to add valuable ounces near surface while searching for the next big gold discovery on the property,” said Trottier.

The expansion program will focus on the Gratien, Grey Cat, Denise, and High Grade Zones. Gratien drilling, in particular, aims to extend mineralization eastward toward the Denise Zone, possibly establishing a multi-kilometric gold trend. Surface-accessible ounces added through this program could enhance the existing mine plan detailed in the 2024 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA).

The regional program targets untested contacts of the Patten Pluton, the northwestern Beaupré Block, and the Normétal South Block. These areas have largely remained unexplored despite showing multiple gold-insoil anomalies and geophysical signatures coinciding with regional structures.

New High-Grade Gold Results

Strengthen Expansion Narrative

Amex kicked off 2025 with a strong technical release on January 9, reporting high-grade intercepts from multiple zones across the Perron Property.

Highlights included:

• Upper High Grade Zone: 69.03 g/t Au over 0.50m at ~730m depth (PE-21-386W2)

• Denise Zone: 35.82 g/t Au over 1.20m, including 60.82 g/t Au over 0.70m (PE-24-818)

• Grey Cat Zone: 49.75 g/t Au over 0.60m near surface (PEG-24-834)

• Gratien Zone: 7.44 g/t Au over 2.00m, including 12.21 g/t over 1.00m (PEG-24-828)

• JT Zone: 0.72 g/t Au over 123.00m, including 27.12 g/t Au over 1.50m (PEX-24-265)

The company is applying advanced resource modeling to optimize drill targeting, with the goal of adding economic ounces to its existing PEA-defined mine plan.

“With the exception of the JT Zone where a bulk mining scenario could be envisioned, these high-grade intercepts have all shown metal factors significantly above this PEA threshold,” said Jonathan Gagné, Vice President of Project Development.

A particularly exciting result came from hole PEX-24197, which uncovered visible gold in a regional setting outside the Beaupré Block — a first for the company and a promising sign that mineralization could extend across the broader Perron land package.

“This further demonstrates that gold mineralization at Perron extends beyond the Beaupré Block, highlight-

ing the entire Perron property as having fertile targets for hosting gold,” said Aaron Stone, Vice President of Exploration.

CONCLUSION:

Building the Next Tier-One Discovery in Abitibi

Amex Exploration is positioning itself for transformative growth in 2025. With a quadrupled land position, a wellfunded and methodical drill campaign, and consistent high-grade results, the company is not just expanding its footprint—it is redefining it.

The bold steps taken by Amex could establish Perron as the next major gold camp in the Abitibi region, and with new infrastructure and regional discovery potential, the road ahead looks golden.

MADSEN MINE

Nears Restart

as WRLG Hits

High-Grade Gold in Austin Zone

Fresh intercepts, bulk sampling and $20M raise strengthen case for 2025 production

Gentlemen, start your engines! West Red Lake Gold Mines Ltd. is closing in on its long-anticipated return to production at the historic Madsen Mine in northwestern Ontario. The company is delivering on multiple fronts: high-grade drill results from the Austin Zone, successful early mill processing, and a well-timed $20 million financing to support the ramp-up. “High-grade panels in Austin, like the one highlighted in this update, are currently within the life-of-mine plan and are expected to deliver meaningful, high-margin tonnes during the first eighteen to twenty-four months of production,” said President & CEO Shane Williams. “Many of these deeper areas were never accessed by the two previous operators.” The most recent drill results from the high-grade Austin Zone reveal continued strength within the company’s resource base. The program focused on definition and expansion drilling to bolster high-confidence ounces ahead of the 2025 production restart.

AUSTIN ZONE HIGHLIGHTS:

10.5 m @ 12.43 g/t Au, including:

• 0.6 m @ 106.06 g/t Au

• 0.7 m @ 49.53 g/t Au

4.3 m @ 30.16 g/t Au, including:

• 1.1 m @ 106.10 g/t Au

5.4 m @ 23.81 g/t Au, including:

• 0.5 m @ 212.13 g/t Au

• 0.5 m @ 30.14 g/t Au

9.6 m @ 10.98 g/t Au, including:

• 0.5 m @ 45.34 g/t Au

• 0.8 m @ 36.90 g/t Au

5.85 m @ 17.29 g/t Au, including

• 1.5 m @ 45.31 g/t Au

• 0.6 m @ 27.15 g/t Au

The Austin Zone currently hosts an Indicated resource of 914,200 ounces at 6.9 g/t Au, and an additional 104,900 ounces at 6.5 g/t Au in the Inferred category.

Mill Re-Start and Bulk Sampling Underway

In a major operational milestone, WRLG confirmed that the Madsen Mill has begun processing lowgrade material, with bulk sampling of Stope 1 scheduled imminently. Underground development has accelerated and is now active across multiple zones, including the Connection Drift, which is 94% complete.

“Turning on the Madsen Mill to process the bulk sample was a very exciting moment,” said Williams. “It reinforces that our level of preparation has translated into successful operational readiness ahead of initial production.”

The timing couldn’t be better. With gold prices at record levels, WRLG

is positioning itself to capitalize on a robust market during its transition from developer to producer.

$20 Million Charity FlowThrough Financing Closed

To support the ongoing ramp-up, WRLG recently closed a $20 million charity flow-through financing led by Raymond James Ltd. The raise involved 23.6 million flow-through units at $0.8487 per unit, each consisting of one flow-through share and one warrant exercisable at $0.90 for 36 months.

“This financing highlights demand from investors for companies moving into production in an excellent gold market,” said Williams. “A strong treasury mitigates potential risks and supports investor confidence as we move forward.”

Proceeds will be directed toward eligible Canadian development expenses under the Income Tax Act, funding ongoing underground development and test mining at Madsen. With exploration success, operational progress, and financial flexibility now firmly in hand, West Red Lake Gold is setting the stage for a compelling return to gold production at one of Red Lake’s most storied assets.

GENERATION MINING’s Marathon Copper-Palladium Project A New Era for Mining in Ontario

TheMarathon Copper-Palladium Project, spearheaded by Generation Mining, is set to become one of the most exciting mining ventures in Canada. “This is a transformative project for Ontario and Canada’s critical mineral strategy,” said President and CEO Jamie Levy.

Located near the town of Marathon in Northwestern Ontario, this shovelready project has captured the attention of industry leaders, investors, and local communities alike. With construction slated to begin this year, the excitement surrounding this initiative is growing every day.

The Marathon Project is positioned as a key contributor to North America's critical minerals supply chain. Over its anticipated 13-year lifespan, the mine will produce an impressive array of metals, including 2.12 million ounces of palladium, 517 million pounds of copper, 485,000 ounces of platinum, 158,000 ounces of gold, and 3.15 million ounces of silver. These outputs are vital for industries ranging from automotive manufacturing to renewable energy technologies.

Economic Impact & Sustainability

The updated feasibility study for Marathon reveals robust financial metrics. The project boasts a net present value (NPV) of C$1.16 billion and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 25.8%, with a payback period of just 2.3 years[1][6]. These figures underscore its attractiveness

to investors and its potential to drive regional economic growth. Beyond financial benefits, Generation Mining has committed to environmentally responsible practices. The company has worked closely with local Indigenous communities and government bodies to ensure sustainable development that prioritizes environmental health and social well-being.

Final Permits Secured

In March, Generation announced it had secured the final construction permit from Ontario's Ministry of Natural Resources. This milestone marks the culmination of years of planning and regulatory approvals. “We are closer than ever to breaking ground on this exciting project,” said Levy. The company’s optimization efforts have refined both the mine plan and process plant design. These improvements aim to maximize metal production while reducing initial capital costs—a strategy that enhances early cash flow and shortens the payback period.

Community Support & Workforce Development

The project has garnered strong support from local stakeholders, including Indigenous groups and the town of Marathon. With plans for a 276bed construction camp in town and proximity to major infrastructure like rail lines and highways, the Marathon Project is poised to create over 800 jobs during construction and more than 400 permanent positions during operations.

Looking Ahead

As construction begins this year, Generation Mining is setting a new benchmark for mining innovation in Ontario. With its focus on critical minerals production, economic sustainability, and community engagement, the Marathon Project represents a bold step forward in Canada’s mining landscape. For Levy and his team at Generation Mining, the excitement is undeniable: “We’re thrilled to be leading this charge for critical minerals in North America.”

GREENSTONE MINE : A Cornerstone of Equinox Gold’s Future

The Greenstone Mine, on the doorstep of Geraldton, continues to be a transformative asset for Equinox Gold, cementing its position as a major emerging player in the global gold mining industry. With its large-scale production capabilities and long mine life, Greenstone represents not only a significant achievement for the company but also an opportunity for growth and development in northern Ontario.

Operational Milestones

Greenstone reached commercial production in November 2024 after three years of construction and commissioning. Despite challenges such

as supply chain disruptions and inflationary pressures, the mine achieved steady progress. Greg Smith celebrated this milestone: “With the Greenstone Mine continuing to ramp up and generating positive operating cash flow, we are pleased to announce commercial production at our newest and largest gold mine.” The ramp-up process continued into 2025 as Equinox aims to optimize mining rates and plant throughput.

Community Impact

Beyond its operational significance, Greenstone is bringing substantial benefits to the Geraldton region. The mine is providing significant, high-

paying employment opportunities, stimulating local businesses, and contributing to community development. Its status as one of Canada’s largest open-pit gold mines underscores its importance not only to Equinox Gold but also to Ontario’s mining landscape.

Future Expansion Opportunities

Equinox sees significant potential for further growth at Greenstone. The company plans to explore additional deposits along a 100-kilometer trend west of the mine and evaluate options for underground mining according to Ross Beaty, Board Chair of Equinox Gold. “The outstanding scale and quality of Greenstone provide opportunities to boost production, cash flow, and gold reserves.”

Looking Forward

As Equinox Gold continues to refine operations at Greenstone, the mine is expected to deliver stable and profitable production for years to come. With expansion projects planned across its portfolio—including Greenstone—Equinox aims to solidify its position as a leading Americas-focused gold producer. Greg Smith aptly summarized the company’s vision: “Greenstone is a world-class asset. Once operating at full capacity, it will be our largest and lowest-cost mine.”

In many ways, the success of Greenstone symbolizes Equinox Gold’s broader ambitions—a commitment to growth while fostering positive impacts on local communities and stakeholders. As operations ramp up further in 2025, all eyes will be on this cornerstone asset as it shapes the future of gold mining in Canada.

Trump Orders Fast-Track for U.S. MINERAL PRODUCTION

America needs minerals, and Donald Trump wants them dug up fast.

In March, the US President issued an executive order demanding immediate action to boost America’s mining industry. The goal is simple: reduce dependence on foreign minerals, create jobs, and strengthen national security. “The United States possesses vast mineral resources that can create jobs, fuel prosperity, and significantly reduce our reliance on foreign nations,” Trump stated.

Federal agencies were given a few days to list mineral projects that can be approved quickly. Trump’s order pushes for rapid permitting and cuts through regulatory delays that have slowed mining operations in recent years. Critical minerals listed include uranium, copper, gold, and potash—materials vital for technology, infrastructure, and defense. This executive order also targets minerals used in batteries, smartphones, electric vehicles, and wind turbines.

Trump argued that America’s mineral production, once the envy of the world, has suffered from excessive government regulations. He pointed to reliance on “hostile foreign powers” as a threat that the nation must urgently address.

Federal lands with valuable minerals will now prioritize mining and related industries. The Departments of Defense, Interior, Agriculture, and Energy must quickly identify suitable locations for commercial mining operations.

Defense Secretary and the CEO of the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation were given sweeping powers to fast-track investments and projects that support domestic mineral production. Under this order, the military will also pair private investors with promising mining projects through the National Security Capital Forum.

Critics argue that rapid development could pose environmental risks, particularly regarding waste disposal from mines. The order specifically requests recommendations to Congress to clarify handling of mining waste.

Trump’s directive comes in response to what his administration identifies as a national energy emergency, seeking to bolster America’s mineral independence urgently. “Our national and economic security are now acutely threatened,” Trump emphasized.
