    Coeur Mining Shifts From Acquisitions to Cash Flow and Shareholder Returns | Mitch Krebs

    Coeur Mining is shifting from major acquisitions to execution, with its expanded North American portfolio expected to generate approximately $2.3 billion in adjusted EBITDA and $1.5 billion in free cash flow in 2026 following the SilverCrest and New Gold transactions. Speaking with Kitco Mining's Paul Harris at Mining Forum Americas 2026, President and CEO Mitch Krebs says the transformation has reshaped Coeur's financial position. After generating negative $300 million in free cash flow in 2023, the company now holds more than $1 billion in cash. “we're now very much in the digestion and delivery mode,” Krebs said, emphasizing that further acquisitions are on hold as management focuses on operating performance. Coeur is balancing organic growth with shareholder returns, including a $750 million share buyback authorization, approximately $220 million repurchased at the time of the interview, and its first dividend in roughly three decades. Krebs says buybacks remain the preferred approach because of their flexibility, while maintaining cash reserves provides protection during weaker commodity cycles. Looking ahead, Coeur is targeting mine-life extensions at Rainy River and New Afton, where K-Zone exploration could support production into the 2040s, while advancing a prefeasibility study at Silvertip. Krebs expects 2027 to be the first full year reflecting the enlarged portfolio. Special thanks to our sponsor, Metalla Royalty & Streaming.

    Uranium Prices Remain Too Low as NexGen Advances Rook I | Travis McPherson

    Uranium prices have climbed to multi-decade highs, but NexGen Energy says they remain too low to incentivize the new production needed to address a growing global supply deficit, even before accounting for rising electricity demand from AI data centers. Speaking with Kitco Mining's Paul Harris on October 15, 2026, NexGen Energy Chief Commercial Officer Travis McPherson says years of underinvestment have constrained supply as nuclear utilities become increasingly concerned about securing future fuel. Despite uranium prices rising roughly fivefold over the past decade, he says global production has remained largely flat. With utilities seeking long-term supply, NexGen is deliberately preserving pricing flexibility ahead of production at its Rook I project. “We don't give away optionality for nothing,” McPherson said. The company favors shorter contracts linked to market prices at delivery rather than committing most of its future output years in advance. In Saskatchewan, construction is advancing at the C$2.2 billion Rook I project, targeting first production around 2030 and annual capacity of up to 30 million pounds of U₃O₈. McPherson discusses upcoming shaft-freezing and sinking milestones, exploration at Patterson Corridor East, and why uranium equities have lagged the commodity despite improving fundamentals.

    Mineros Targets Nicaragua Growth While Building Gold Treasury | Daniel Henao

    Speaking with Kitco Mining's Paul Harris at Mining Forum Americas 2026, President and CEO Daniel Henao outlines a $25 million expansion at the Hemco operation, increasing processing capacity by more than 40% and targeting an additional 30,000 to 40,000 ounces of annual gold production in 2027. Following the interview, Mineros raised its 2026 consolidated production guidance to 235,000–245,000 ounces, supported by operational improvements in Nicaragua and Colombia. The company is also advancing Porvenir, where an updated prefeasibility study estimates $207 million in initial capital and a 37.9% after-tax IRR. Management is targeting a construction decision in early 2027, subject to remaining permits. Beyond production growth, Mineros has built approximately 40,000 ounces in gold-related treasury holdings, according to Henao, while maintaining dividends and a discretionary $175 million share buyback program. Explaining the strategy, he said “gold is a great way of preserving, uh, the value of, of our treasury.” Henao also discusses La Colosa's development challenges in Colombia, La Pepa in Chile and a potential U.S. listing.

    Franco-Nevada Prepares for a New Wave of Deals | Paul Brink

    Franco-Nevada is preparing to deploy substantial capital into new mining deals, with $4.3 billion in available capital and a growing pipeline of opportunities as royalty and streaming finance gains traction across the industry. Speaking with Kitco Mining's Paul Harris at Mining Forum Americas 2026 on September 29, President and CEO Paul Brink expects significant investment activity ahead, saying, “In the next six to 12 months we will deploy a good amount of that capital.” At Cobre Panamá, Brink says Franco-Nevada has received its first payment from renewed stockpile processing, while discussions over the mine's future continue. The company is also tracking toward the upper half of its 2026 production guidance, supported by anticipated Cobre Panamá deliveries and stronger energy royalty revenue. Beyond traditional streams and royalties, Franco-Nevada is increasingly combining debt and equity financing to back experienced mine-building teams, including partnerships with i-80 Gold and Minerals 260. Brink also discusses BHP's $4.3 billion Antamina silver stream as a major endorsement of the sector and why increasingly expensive copper projects could drive further demand for alternative financing.

    Equinox Gold Shifts From M&A to Execution | Jason Simpson

    Equinox Gold has finished building scale through major transactions. Now the focus is on proving the enlarged company can deliver. Speaking with Kitco Mining’s Paul Harris at the 2026 Mining Forum Americas, President and incoming CEO Jason Simpson said Equinox is shifting from merger-driven growth to execution after combining with Calibre Mining and Orla Mining. “We don't need anything else. We just need to focus on delivering,” Simpson said. The combined portfolio has annual production capacity of roughly 1.1 million ounces, with an organic growth pipeline that could take Equinox toward 2 million ounces. Simpson said the projects have been deliberately sequenced so they are not competing for capital, with the next major growth phase centered on the U.S. before further expansion opportunities in Mexico and Canada. Simpson said more than 50% of Equinox’s NAV is currently in Canada, while future U.S. growth could lift the combined Canada-U.S. share to about 70%. Near-term catalysts include the Greenstone and Valentine ramp-ups, early works at South Railroad in Nevada toward 2028 production, and progress at Castle Mountain. Equinox also plans to fund growth internally while reducing debt, buying back shares and returning capital through dividends. Simpson said delivering 2026 guidance is the immediate test of the company’s new senior-scale platform. Special thanks to our sponsor, Metalla Royalty & Streaming.

    Gold Miners' Earnings Soar, but Valuations Stay Low | Kenny Zhu

    Gold miners are generating near-record earnings and stronger free cash flow, yet their valuations remain depressed despite a decade of improved financial discipline. Sprott Asset Management argues investors may still be judging the sector by the costly mistakes of the previous gold bull market. Speaking with Kitco Mining's Paul Harris on October 21, 2026, Kenny Zhu, Director of Research and Investment Strategy at Sprott Asset Management, says forward EV/EBITDA multiples for gold miners stood at 5.7 times in September, down from 9.9 times in June 2014. “Investors are still valuing gold miners based on the mistakes of the past cycle,” Zhu said, citing debt-funded expansion and value-destructive acquisitions. Today's miners are prioritizing cash flow, stronger balance sheets and shareholder returns over production growth at any cost. But Zhu identifies another risk: “the industry is facing a real danger of longer-term depletion.” Declining ore grades, fewer major discoveries and mine development timelines approaching 18 years raise questions about future gold supply. Zhu also examines central bank gold demand, real interest rates and AI-related economic risks, while addressing criticism that miners should invest more in new production rather than prioritize share buybacks.

    Pan American Silver Plans 19M Oz Expansion | Michael Steinmann

    Pan American Silver is targeting up to $1 billion in shareholder returns in 2026 while advancing a $1.9 billion expansion at La Colorada in Mexico, balancing dividends and buybacks with a major investment in future silver production. Speaking with Kitco Mining's Paul Harris at Mining Forum Americas 2026, President and CEO Michael Steinmann says strong cash flow and more than $3 billion in liquidity give Pan American room to pursue both priorities. The La Colorada Skarn project could lift the expanded mine's annual silver output to approximately 19 million ounces during its peak five years, with an estimated 37-year mine life. Steinmann also sees further upside for silver as industrial demand grows and supply struggles to respond. He said he would not be surprised to see “a jump like that to 150 or $200 over the next few years,” while cautioning that sharp rallies can reverse. Beyond metal prices, Steinmann argues that a shortage of experienced mine-building teams could accelerate industry consolidation. He also discusses Pan American's disciplined approach to acquisitions, operating costs, and plans for an economic assessment of its Timmins assets.

    Generalist Investors Are Returning to Mining | Tim Wood

    Mining companies have more cash, stronger metals prices and broader investor interest, but Tim Wood says the sector is still showing restraint rather than repeating the excesses of the last cycle. Speaking with Kitco Mining’s Paul Harris at the 2026 Mining Forum Americas, the Denver Gold Group executive director said capital discipline remained a consistent message across company presentations, with miners continuing to prioritize shareholder returns and stronger balance sheets. “I think we've turned a corner in the way companies are approaching the cycle,” Wood said. Wood also described a “sea change” in the investor base, with hedge funds, private equity and generalist investors playing a larger role alongside traditional mining specialists. “So the, the generalists are here,” he said. That broader interest was reflected at MFA, where about 1,270 attendees checked in and roughly 5,080 investor meetings were scheduled. He also pointed to a shift in industry priorities, with ESG becoming less prominent while companies focus more directly on social license and community support. At the same time, Wood expects M&A activity to increase, but says management teams remain wary of overpaying. Wood also announced Denver Gold Group’s expansion into Australia, with a new Sydney conference launching in October 2027 after what he described as strong demand from the Australian market.
