• Trilogy holds a 50% interest in Ambler Metals LLC, advancing the high-grade Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects (“UKMP”) in Alaska’s Ambler Mining District
• The Arctic deposit hosts 46.7 million tonnes of probable reserves grading 2.11% copper, supported by a 2023 feasibility study with a $1.5 billion pre-tax NPV
• Recent Preliminary Economic Assessment at Bornite outlines resources with the potential to extend mining operations at the UKMP beyond 30 years

Global demand for critical minerals is rising sharply as electrification, renewable energy, and emerging technologies accelerate. Copper has become central to this transition, with demand projected to outpace supply for decades. Many producing mines are seeing grades decline, while new projects often face long development timelines. As a result, high-grade resources in stable jurisdictions have become increasingly valuable for securing future supply chains.

Against this backdrop, Trilogy Metals (NYSE American: TMQ) (TSX: TMQ) is positioned as a key North American developer. The company, through its 50/50 joint venture with South32, controls the Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects (“UKMP”) in Alaska’s Ambler Mining District, considered one of the richest…

Rystad Energy, an energy consultancy firm, recently published a report that indicates M&A deal-making in the oil and gas industry has dampened when compared to the first six months of last year. Donald Trump’s policies and other macroeconomic uncertainties have contributed to this slump, although it can also be argued that the slowing down of deal-making activity at this time is only natural after the frantic merger and acquisition deal-making that happened during the past 24 months.

The slowing down of M&A activity doesn’t mean the sector is going quiet. On the exploration and production front, firms are going full steam ahead. Entities like GEMXX Corp. (OTC: GEMZ) possibly regard this period as a time to ramp up their exploration activity so that when stability returns on the…

• York Claims acquisition adds 2.1 km² of strategic mineral rights directly adjacent to existing gold resources, enabling significant pit expansion beyond current property boundaries
• Resource modeling from recent PEA demonstrates gold-silver mineralization extends into newly acquired territory, positioning Lahontan for substantial resource growth
• Transaction structure combining cash, equity, and royalty terms reflects disciplined capital allocation while securing immediate operational advantages

Mining companies pursuing growth face a fundamental choice: expand through exploration risk or consolidating proven ground adjacent to existing resources. While exploration offers discovery potential, strategic land acquisition near established mineralization provides more predictable pathways to resource expansion with lower geological risk.

Lahontan Gold (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF) executed precisely, announcing the acquisition of 27 unpatented lode mineral claims directly south of its York pit at the Santa Fe Mine project.

New Pacific (NYSE American: NEWP) (TSX: NUAG), a Canadian exploration and development company, is poised for opportunity as global demand for silver intensifies, largely fueled by industrial applications such as solar panels and electric vehicles, while supply remains constrained. “New Pacific Metals has positioned itself as a first mover in this environment. The company’s flagship Silver Sand project is among the most advanced silver developments in Bolivia,” reads a recent article. “A preliminary feasibility study released in June 2024 outlines a 13-year mine life producing 12 million ounces of silver annually, 15 million ounces in the initial years. The economics are robust: at a silver price of US$24 per ounce, the project yields a post-tax NPV of US$740 million and a 37% IRR, with an all-in sustaining cost (‘AISC’) of just US$10.69 per ounce. Payback is expected in under two years.”

Wellascent Electronic, a Chinese company manufacturing copper flat wire, decided to construct a production plant in Texas at the start of 2024. Their bold decision was based on a desire to avoid getting caught in the middle of the growing geopolitical risks between the U.S. and China. With the imposition of stiff tariffs on copper imports into the U.S., the company’s bet seems to be paying off as American-based buyers are making orders in order to avoid paying the tariff on imported flat wire and other semi-finished goods.

Entities in the copper extraction ecosystem like Aston Bay Holdings Ltd. (CVE: BAY) (OTCQB: ATBHF) can also be thankful that the U.S. tariffs exempted refined copper from the huge levies placed on…

Ucore Rare Metals (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF), leveraging its RapidSX(TM) separation technology, is strategically positioned to become the North American gatekeeper for magnet-grade rare earth oxides. This comes as recent trade agreements with the European Union and Japan are unlocking massive investment that could reshape U.S. manufacturing, particularly for critical components such as permanent magnet materials.

A recent article discussing this reads, “While higher import duties shield domestic industry, the accompanying capital inflow is drawing OEMs to scale operations stateside, but they now urgently require a homegrown source of reliable heavy rare earth elements (‘HREE’). This is where Ucore’s proprietary RapidSX technology offers a compelling supply chain solution. RapidSX can separate HREE oxides about three times faster than conventional solvent extraction and uses only one-third the physical footprint. Ucore’s Louisiana Strategic Metals Complex (‘SMC’) in Alexandria is slated to begin commercial feedstock production in 2026, supplying magnet-grade neodymium, praseodymium, terbium and dysprosium, all tariff-insulated by virtue of onshore U.S. production… With the demonstration plant de-risking feedstock and OEM qualifications already underway, Ucore is positioned not only as an REE separator but as a strategic industrial partner in rebuilding North American critical minerals independence at the nexus of trade policy, clean tech demand, and defense security.”

About Ucore Rare Metals Inc.

Ucore is focused on rare- and critical-metal resources, extraction, beneficiation and separation technologies with the potential for production, growth and scalability. Ucore’s vision and plan is to become a leading advanced technology company, providing best-in-class metal separation products and services to the mining and mineral extraction industry. Through strategic partnerships, this plan includes disrupting the People’s Republic of China’s control of the North American REE supply chain through the near-term development of a heavy and light rare-earth processing facility in the U.S. state of Louisiana, subsequent strategic metals complexes (“SMCs”) in Canada and Alaska and the longer-term development of Ucore’s 100% controlled Bokan-Dotson Ridge Rare Heavy REE Project on Prince of Wales Island in Southeast Alaska, USA.

According to the United States Energy Information Administration, developers indicate that half of new electricity generation capacity that will be brought online this year will come from solar energy. This conclusion was made from the findings of a recent survey that was conducted by the EIA.

Things are looking up for solar energy capacity additions in the U.S., and the push to increase the share of renewables in the energy mix of the country appears to be gaining momentum. This uptake potentially creates more market opportunities for companies like Platinum Group Metals Ltd.

Silvercorp Metals (NYSE American/TSX: SVM), a Canadian mining company producing silver, gold, lead, and zinc, has seen the legal challenge over its El Domo mining project in Ecuador come to an end.

The ruling confirms the validity of the environmental license issued by the Ministry of Environment, Water, and Ecological Transition (“MAATE”) and affirms that the environmental consultation process complied with both Ecuadorian law and the standards of the Regional Agreement on Access to Information, Public Participation and Justice in Environmental Matters in Latin America and the Caribbean, known as the…

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) (FSE: Z7D) recently announced the results of its Ambient Noise Tomography (“ANT”) survey, highlighting the potential for metals discovery at the historic Montauban gold and silver mine site covering 13,116 hectares (about 32,410 acres) of abandoned exploration 80 kilometers (49.7 miles) west of Quebec’s capital city. An article discussing this reads, “The ANT survey reaffirms that Montauban’s mineral system remains open at depth — both vertically and laterally, according to the company. Multiple zones across the property remain completely untested.”

“The continuity, depth, and scale of the structures we’re seeing suggest that the original mine was just the tip of the iceberg. As we build toward production from the tailings, we’re simultaneously unlocking the blue-sky potential beneath,” said CEO Gordon Robb. “This data confirms Montauban may be just the first chapter in a much larger district-scale opportunity, and we’re excited to share that story with the world.”

On Monday, gold rose and held steady as the attention of investors shifted to the Washington meeting between Trump, EU leaders and Zelenskiy on how to move the peace talks forward between Russia and Ukraine. Traders are also waiting for the outcome of the upcoming meeting of central bank leaders at Jackson Hole. Chairman Powell is expected to make his final address to this meeting on Friday.

Based on that data, market expectations for a rate cut dropped to 85% as traders foresaw a lower likelihood of a cut given the rising producer prices. A lot is therefore riding on the meeting at Jackson Hole and the one being hosted by Trump in Washington. Gold industry actors like Torr Metals Inc. (CVE: TMET) Will be watching these two meetings that could influence the trajectory of the price of gold in…

Nicola Mining (TSX.V: NIM) (OTCQB: HUSIF) was featured in a recent article that discussed its positioning and distinction in the market. “Nicola’s operational blueprint for 2025 includes commencing Dominion Creek’s bulk sample extraction in Q3, reaching and maintaining full-production capacity at the Merritt Mill, and publishing exploration results for the flagship New Craigmont (Copper) Project. Nicola’s strategy synergizes with its broader corporate objectives: To concentrate operations within British Columbia. In tandem with Dominion Creek and New Craigmont, the company is advancing Treasure Mountain, a silver-lead-zinc project. The integration of exploration and processing capability enhances Nicola’s sustainability and operational efficiency, positioning itself for further organic growth.

“Nicola Mining stands out among other junior miners, especially in BC. Its balanced strategy blends exploration upside with steady cash flow from processing ore. By capturing value from its high-grade gold-silver system, and converting it into tangible ore through a permitted mill, Nicola effectively minimizes dilution and enhances its appeal to investors seeking actionable exposure to resource development in British Columbia.”

Statistics Norway, the statistics body of the country, has revealed that there is an increase in its estimates for the country’s expenditure in the oil and gas industry next year. The revised estimates indicate that the expenditure will increase to about $22.5 billion due to anticipated increase in production drilling operations.

The growing investment in Norway’s oil and gas sector shows that global demand remains strong over the coming decade. It is therefore not surprising that U.S. companies like GEMXX Corp. (OTC: GEMZ) are similarly conducting exploration activities in Latin America to meet the sustained demand around the…

Torr Metals Inc. (TSX.V: TMET) reported results from an induced polarization survey and rock grab sampling at the Bertha Zone within its 332 km2 Kolos Copper-Gold Project in British Columbia. Sampling from the historical Bertha pit returned up to 16.9% copper and 8.48 g/t silver along a 30 m strike, with mineralization extending more than 450 m between the Bertha and Bertha South showings where no drilling has been recorded. The high-grade copper sits on the margin of a newly defined greater than 900 m by greater than 500 m IP chargeability anomaly that remains open in multiple directions. All six grab samples exceeded 1% copper, four topped 3%, and mineralization is hosted in the Nicola Group volcanic unit, suggesting a broad supergene-style blanket near a porphyry core. Torr also outlined a prime untested porphyry target southeast of the Bertha pit, where overlapping chargeability and resistivity anomalies coincide with a large hydrothermal alteration footprint.

• Bolivia, despite its rich mining history, remains one of the most underexplored silver jurisdictions due to a slow permitting process, but investors may benefit from dramatic upside if reforms advance.
• New Pacific Metals holds two of the most promising undeveloped silver projects globally in the country: Silver Sand and Carangas.
• Together, the two projects could position New Pacific among the top global primary silver producers, with potential combined output of nearly 19 million ounces annually when production begins.
• Backing from mining companies Silvercorp and Pan American Silver signals confidence in long-term development.

As global demand for silver intensifies, largely fueled by industrial applications such as solar panels and electric vehicles, supply remains constrained. Few new primary silver projects are advancing, leaving producers searching for untapped potential. For New Pacific Metals (NYSE American: NEWP) (TSX: NUAG), a Canadian exploration and development company, that opportunity lies in Bolivia, a country with deep silver reserves, but limited modern development.

Bolivia is geologically rich, with a long and significant silver history, but is currently underexplored. Due to a decade of slow-moving regulatory frameworks and limited foreign investment, the country has lagged behind more active mining jurisdictions. Still, there is growing recognition within Bolivia of the need to…

• Four-property Nevada portfolio anchored by the 2-million-ounce Santa Fe Mine positions Lahontan in North America’s most mining-friendly jurisdiction during gold’s institutional transformation
• Walker Lane geological corridor continues attracting major acquisitions, with AngloGold Ashanti’s recent C$152 million Augusta Gold purchase highlighting regional consolidation trends

As Gold Surges, Junior Miners Offer Unmatched Leverage

Gold recently soared past $3,000 per ounce and briefly touched a record high of $3,500, driven by persistent inflation, geopolitical instability, and rising central bank demand. As traditional safe-haven assets regain favor, institutional capital is once again eyeing gold. But while bullion prices hit all-time highs, many mining equities, especially microcaps, are arguably undervalued, offering asymmetric upside potential.

Lahontan Gold (TSX.V: LG) (OTCQB: LGCXF) exemplifies this setup with its focused portfolio in Nevada’s Walker Lane district, home to one of North America’s most prolific and active gold belts. The company controls four projects, anchored by the 2-million-ounce Santa Fe Mine, that provide near-term…

• This phase 2 award builds on phase 1 success, during which Ucore successfully separated two heavy rare earths critical for defense applications.
• RapidSX offers a U.S. government-backed alternative to traditional vat-based solvent extraction technology, which is dominated by Chinese refiners. 
• Ucore plans to achieve full mechanical completion of the Louisiana-based SMC by the second half of 2026.

In a bold step toward reshoring critical mineral processing, Ucore Rare Metals (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF) has received an $18.4 million phase 2 award from the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”) to accelerate the engineering, procurement and site work for its Louisiana Strategic Metals Complex (“LA SMC”), reinforcing its leadership in domestic heavy rare earth element (“HREE”) supply (https://ibn.fm/OTvbq). Ucore’s RapidSX(TM) column-based solvent extraction platform, already proven under phase 1 funding, is central to the company’s mission to break reliance on China-controlled legacy REE separation methods.

The phase 2 award expands an earlier $4 million phase 1 demonstration project and supports detailed engineering, long-lead equipment procurement and early-stage construction at the LA SMC in Alexandria, Louisiana. This award builds on phase 1 success, during which Ucore successfully separated…

• This phase 2 award builds on phase 1 success, during which Ucore successfully separated two heavy rare earths critical for defense applications.
• RapidSX offers a U.S. government-backed alternative to traditional vat-based solvent extraction technology, which is dominated by Chinese refiners. 
• Ucore plans to achieve full mechanical completion of the Louisiana-based SMC by the second half of 2026.

In a bold step toward reshoring critical mineral processing, Ucore Rare Metals (TSX.V: UCU) (OTCQX: UURAF) has received an $18.4 million phase 2 award from the U.S. Department of Defense (“DoD”) to accelerate the engineering, procurement and site work for its Louisiana Strategic Metals Complex (“LA SMC”), reinforcing its leadership in domestic heavy rare earth element (“HREE”) supply (https://ibn.fm/OTvbq). Ucore’s RapidSX(TM) column-based solvent extraction platform, already proven under phase 1 funding, is central to the company’s mission to break reliance on China-controlled legacy REE separation methods.

The phase 2 award expands an earlier $4 million phase 1 demonstration project and supports detailed engineering, long-lead equipment procurement and early-stage construction at the LA SMC in Alexandria, Louisiana. This award builds on phase 1 success, during which Ucore successfully separated terbium (Tb) and dysprosium (Dy) — two heavy rare earths critical for permanent magnets and defense applications — with phase 1 payments totaling more than $3.35 million to date (https://ibn.fm/RxJ1W). Phase 2 is intended to scale RapidSX to commercial readiness and position Ucore for mechanical completion of the facility in late 2026 with minimal equity dilution.

RapidSX offers a U.S. government-backed alternative to traditional vat-based solvent extraction technology, which is dominated by Chinese refiners. Unlike legacy processing methods, RapidSX enables nearly tenfold faster separation of rare earth elements and requires only one-third of the physical footprint, significantly improving cost-effectiveness and scalability. The phase 2 award formally confirms U.S. government validation of RapidSX as a secure, high-efficiency pathway to HREE independence.

In addition, the phase 2 funding signals confidence from the DoD in Ucore’s ability to deliver a domestic heavy REE source that meets strategic demand. It sends a strong message to original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) in sectors such as defense, electric vehicles, clean energy and AI hardware that a reliable North American supply chain for terbium and dysprosium is increasingly viable. RapidSX’s ability to produce these materials at commercial scale aligns directly with growing demand across high-tech and defense supply chains.

Ucore’s engineering-focused approach and DoD support not only accelerate its roadmap toward full-scale production but also minimize shareholder dilution. By leveraging fixed-price contract funding rather than raising equity, Ucore retains strong balance sheet discipline and positions the Louisiana facility for rapid commissioning with limited capital risk. This financial structure heightens confidence among institutional investors that Ucore can execute its strategy without needing to issue significant new shares.

Looking forward, Ucore aims to achieve full mechanical completion of the Louisiana-based SMC by the second half of 2026, at which point early production of salable rare earth elements will commence. With scaled RapidSX operations, the company plans to demonstrate commercial readiness and begin delivering separated heavy rare earth oxides such as terbium and dysprosium. This progress not only strengthens the U.S. rare earth supply chain but also offers investors a rare convergence of technological innovation, national security alignment and scalable infrastructure investment opportunities.

After the price of gold climbed to historic levels during the first half of this year and has since been trading sideways for several weeks in a row, many investors could be wondering whether the bull run has now completed its course and they should take their profits before a trend reversal occurs. Saxo Bank thinks the horizontal price movement is just a pause and there is plenty of room for additional upward movement.

Saxo Bank’s outlook may change if gold drops to below $2, 945 an ounce, a price it surpassed in October 2023. As things stand, conditions look primed for entities like Platinum Group Metals Ltd. (NYSE American: PLG) (TSX: PTM) to attract more investment and deliver shareholder value given the rising…

Many have been wondering why President Trump levied 50% tariffs on aluminum, steel and copper despite these three metals being critical to many manufacturing processes. Looking deeper, it emerges that there are deeper reasons than just economics.

Trump’s political base is dominated by blue-collar workers, especially men. These are individuals that don’t have a college education and largely work or worked in factories. As manufacturing was offshored, these blue-collar workers took the brunt of the resultant job losses, and many are struggling to find employment.

The Make America Great Again movement is premised on restoring manufacturing so that this section of the population can thrive again. This partially explains why Trump has targeted imports of that trio of metals yet such hefty tariffs seem to defy logic to many analysts.

To understand how deeply Trump wants manufacturing to return to U.S. soil, think about the so-called “Rust Belt,” the stretch starting from New York State all through the entire Midwest. That reference to rust reflects the disused production sites and mills whose buildings and equipment are rusting and crumbling after activities there went silent when cheaper labor and inputs rendered state-side operations and products uncompetitive internationally.

For most of the last century, the U.S. was the number one global producer of copper, until Chile claimed this title. To this day, Chile is the biggest producer of copper globally. As for steel, the 1970s saw a rapid decline in U.S. steel production that was worsened by several recessions. Europe, South Korea and Japan developed efficient and less costly steel production technologies that supplanted those in the U.S., and that marked the end of American dominance in steel production.

During the last century, cheap electricity coupled with roaring domestic demand within the automotive, aerospace and defence industries enabled the U.S. to dominate aluminum production globally. After 2000, China emerged as a major producer and eventually became the largest aluminum producer in the world.

All these shifts led to economic decline in the states and towns where the production of those metals was conducted, and declines were also evident in regions where industries that depended on those metals existed.

MAGA is premised on restoring this lost glory and it is the reason why tariffs on these specific metal imports are so high.

For now, industries that rely on importing these inputs are going to feel the pain of those levies, and the challenges are likely to persist for a while until local extraction and processing of these metals ramps up to meet domestic demand, or Trump shifts goal posts again in true TACO format. But, given how deep his desire to give blue-collar workers their time in the sun, we are unlikely to see another TACO moment regarding these specific tariffs.

For exploration firms like Torr Metals Inc. (TSX.V: TMET) operating in Canada, the situation in the South across the border could present some unique opportunities to attract investment and ramp up company operations.

On July 31, several groups including community groups, environmental and health groups filed a lawsuit challenging the U.S. federal government’s decision to postpone the implementation of standards controlling methane pollution within the oil and gas industry. These standards have been in force for about a year, but the current administration, through the EPA, passed a new rule putting on hold the enforcement of these standards for another 18 months.

For firms like GEMXX Corp.

• Canadian-based ESGold is preparing to begin a tailings cleanup and reuse operation at its Montauban historic mine site holdings, with plans to generate revenues that can eventually be invested in new exploration at the site without dependence on market funding
• ESGold recently announced the results of a non-invasive Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey at the site, which identified several significant genetic and structural similarities with the globally renowned Broken Hill deposit in New South Wales, Australia
• The analogues between Montauban and Broken Hill strengthen ESGold’s theory that exploration potential remains open at depth both vertically and laterally for a polymetallic deposit, reinforcing the company’s evolving view of Montauban as a structurally complex, vertically continuous mineral system
• The near-term tailings reuse cash flow strategy is expected to generate $350 million during the first few years of operation

Sustainable gold mining innovator ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) is reporting the excitement over findings that its Montauban recovery site in Quebec, Canada, shows significant similarities with a globally renowned metal deposit in Australia — shifting Montauban from classification as a simple historic producer to a high-impact exploration opportunity.

The company’s Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey produced seismic imaging results that support ESGold’s theory that the gold and silver mine site covering 13,116 hectares (about 32,410 acres) west of Quebec’s capital city shares significant genetic and structural similarities with the globally renowned…

Amid the rising value of precious metals, Nicola Mining (TSX.V: NIM) (OTCQB: HUSIF) began processing high-grade gold and silver ore at its Merritt Mill facility, highlighting a key step forward in its growth. “Nicola expects to cumulatively process 60,000 (tn) of ore and produce 21,000 (oz) of gold-equivalent concentrate at full production capacity annual rate. The Merritt Mill provides accessible, reliable revenue to not only its British Columbian partners, but it also sustains its own copper, gold and silver projects across the province,” reads a recent article.

“We are excited to realize that Nicola is morphing into a steady and long-term producer. It is rare for junior miners to reach the production pinnacle and to monetize current precious metal prices with our partners,” said Nicola CEO Peter Espig. “We are also witnessing firsthand augmented efficiencies in British Columbia’s permitting of underground mining operations, which characteristically minimize environmental impact, as well as the strategic significance of our fully permitted mill. In addition to production, we have boosted our geological team and are ramping up activities for what we believe to be an exciting exploration campaign, not only at the New Craigmont Project, but also our fully permitted silver mine, Treasure Mountain.”

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) has announced results from its Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey that validate earlier academic comparisons between its Montauban Gold-Silver Project and the globally significant Broken Hill deposit in Australia. Seismic imaging confirmed mineralized zones down to 1,200 metres, reinforcing a vertically stacked model previously described in peer-reviewed research from the University of Calgary and University of British Columbia. The studies identify sulphide melting, hydrothermal activity, and structural deformation as key remobilization mechanisms for precious metals—findings now echoed by ESGold’s deep geophysical data. The Montauban project is being repositioned as a complex, multi-lens system with district-scale potential and similarities to both Broken Hill and Scandinavian massive sulfide systems. ESGold is integrating academic and geophysical data into a 3D model to guide exploration and advance its near-term production and tailings-to-cash-flow strategy.

According to recently released data from China’s General Administration for Customs, the country imported 183,200 metric tons of shredded and copper scrap in June this year. This marked a modest 1.06% month-on-month drop in total imports of this scrap metal, but year-on-year, the figure depicted an 8.06% increase in total volumes.

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) announced results from its recent Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey at the Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Quebec, revealing deep geological structures that suggest district-scale mineralization potential. The survey, conducted by Caur Technologies, exceeded initial targets by imaging down to 1,200 meters and identifying vertically extensive, laterally continuous features indicative of a possible Volcanogenic Massive Sulphide (VMS) system. Preliminary interpretations highlight a north-central feeder zone and structural contrasts across the project, offering high-priority exploration targets. ESGold is integrating these findings with over 950 historic drill holes and VTEM data into a new 3D geological model. Director André Gauthier noted that Montauban could evolve from a shallow deposit into a vertically integrated system with global-scale potential.
