Mark Fedosiewich, President and CEO of Vior Inc. provides an update on their Belleterre Gold Project. The company has taken advantage of the flow-through financing options in Canada and raised $19.3M of units and added another $2.5M from hard equity. The Project is located near the town of Belleterre in the Abitibi-Témiscamingue region of Quebec, 95km south of both Rouyn-Noranda and Val d'Or, QC. The property consists of 635 claims over an area of 348 km2, forming a district-scale exploration package that includes the former high-grade Belleterre gold mine. The property has been under-explored through the past 60 years.

Chris Wright of Defiance Silver talks about the return of the Tepal project. The project was under court hearings after it was illegally taken from the company. With its return, Defiance is now engaged in releasing an updated mineral resource on the project. Chris also talks about the latest financing and how it was one of the most challenging financings from a sentiment point he's ever seen in his long career.

In this episode, Kylie interviews Garrett Ainsworth, President and CEO of District Metals, about their projects in Sweden. They discuss recent intersections at the Tomtebo project, including strong polymetallic sulphide mineralization and high-grade gold, and the history of the Tomtebo mine. Switching to uranium, they talk about the potential lifting of the uranium moratorium in Sweden, which could have a significant impact on District Metals' Viken uranium-vanadium deposit and the potential for Sweden to become a domestic supplier of uranium for nuclear energy.

In this episode, Kylie connects with Sun Summit Minerals President Sharyn Alexander and discusses the company's JD project in North Central BC. The project is located in the Toodoggone region, emerging as a high-grade exploration district. The company has defined new targets based on a review of historic data, including geochemical anomalies in soil and rock samples. The project is part of the growing activity in the region, with other companies like Thesis Gold and TDG Gold also exploring nearby. Sun Summit Minerals has successfully raised funds for its 2024 exploration program and plans to conduct an aggressive drilling campaign. The company also emphasizes its strong relationships with local communities and Indigenous nations.

In this episode, Kylie chats with Rick Van Nieuwenhuyse,
President and CEO of Contango, about the company's proposal to acquire HighGold Mining and their plans for
the Johnson Track project in Alaska, alongside the company's existing Manh Choh and Lucky Shot projects.
HighGold's Johnson Track project meets their criteria of being near infrastructure, having good grade, and being relatively simple to permit. They aim to avoid the lengthy and complicated process of permitting a mill, tailing facility, and power plant. Rick also talks about their other project, Lucky Shot, which is fully permitted and high grade. He emphasizes the importance of building positive relationships with indigenous groups and the need for investment in exploration and development projects despite the current market conditions.
