Investing is easy if you let it be. 

You need a plan, and you need to do your homework, but you also need a set of rules. So we went and got one of the best rules in investing - Rick Rule. 

We talked about his ‘mantras’ and why they are important. We also discuss philanthropic entrepreneurialism; occasional big wins versus regular small wins; backing inexperienced management teams; The Greater Fool Theory; his agenda; emotional moments; and turning anecdotes into real-life ‘stop-what-you-are-doing-and-listen-moments’.

Karora Resources is one of the best mining turnaround stories in recent years. In just over a year, CEO Paul Huet and his team have overseen a remarkable transformation. RNC Minerals, became the strong, consistent and commercially sensible gold producer, Karora Resources. 

Today, it was the turn of Turner the impressive to sit in the Crux hot seat. Having previously interviewed Huet and the President of Karora's Dumont division, Johnna Muinonen, we have great expectations for Karora representatives. He is a well-spoken, articulate professional.

It has been 12-months of consistently hitting deliverable after deliverable for Karora Resources, and there is a reason the share price of this gold producer has only been heading North. From the transition away from Nickel to gold, to the sale of its 28% stake in Dumont, to the elimination of the Morgan Stanley NSR royalty on HGO operations, to the acquisition of Spargos Reward in Western Australia to add some higher-grade feed into Karora Resources' mill, there seems to be a rigour and thought to the planning, and management of market expectations.

The most recent corporate actions have been even more encouraging. The 1:4.5 share consolidation was done in the best interests of shareholders and tightens up the registry. Moreover, getting Maverix Metals' royalty down to 4.5% on Beta Hunt gold production was an excellent game of chess and eventual negotiation, driving millions into the company's bottom line. 

What does the remainder of 2020 have to offer for gold investors? As far as we can gather, quite a lot...

Maritime Resources is a gold explorer with gold exploration assets in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. This includes the Green Bay project, Whisker Valley and Orion. Maritime Resources claims that these gold properties are strategically located on the Baie Verte and Springdale Peninsulas, an allegedly 'prolific' gold/base metals mining district. 

The area does appear to exhibit plenty of geological potential. It hosts as many as 15 past-producing gold and base metal mines. 2 additional mines are currently producing, with up to 371 gold and base metals prospects. Maritime Resources also makes the claim that this region is underexplored.

Maritime Resources doesn't have a large gold resource right now, but it is aiming to build one at an accelerated pace via systematic exploration and various bankable studies. Having raised $8.7M in a bought deal private placement in August, Maritime Resources is a gold explorer with sufficient cash to push through a feasibility study for the 'high-grade' gold asset, Hammerdown. The February 2019 PEA threw up some nice numbers: a LoM AISC of $939/oz and an average 57,900oz gold pa over the 9-year LoM. Expect to see a PFS further clarify this potential in the near future as Maritime Resources targets 100,000oz gold per year.

GFG Resources is a gold explorer with gold assets in the US and Canada. The gold player is headquartered in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada.

GFG Resources owns 100% of both the Pen Gold Project and Dore Gold project. GFG Resources claims that both these gold mining projects are large and 'highly prospective.' They are located in the west of the renowned Timmins gold district in Ontario, Canada. 

GFG Resources believes that Pen and Dore have the same geological setting that has been proven to hold a huge amount of gold in the Timmins Gold Camp, which has produced close to 70Moz of gold. 

The company has an additional district-scale gold exploration project in Wyoming, called the Rattlesnake Hills Gold Project. Once again, GFG Resources believes that Rattlesnake has the same kind of geological setting, alteration and mineralisation that is seen as numerous gold projects in the Rocky Mountain alkaline province, which has produced around 50Moz of gold. But .they need a partner with a large balance sheet. This is non-core for GFG.

K92 Mining, founded in 2010, is a gold producer and gold developer with a flagship project in Papua New Guinea. K92 Mining's share price rise has been nothing short of meteoric, and this isn't just a demonstration of the unprecedented gold bull environment. K92 Mining's organic growth model is clearly attracting attention as it is free cash flowing and self-funding since 2018. 

K92 Mining operates the high-grade, underground Kainantu Gold Mine, located in the Eastern Highlands Province. The major catalyst moment for this gold producer came in May 2017, when a near-mine discovery called Kora North transformed the gold mining value proposition on offer to gold investors. K92 Mining is now a low-cost producer and targets organic growth to continue producing accretive value for investors as well as significant high-grade gold ounces in the ground. 

Will K92 Mining continue on its exceptional upwards trajectory? With the gold environment like it is right now, one wouldn't bet against it.

Uranium is still hovering around $31/lb, with uranium explorers like UEX Corporation attempting to manoeuvre smartly into a prime position ahead of the imminent next uranium cycle. So, what is the latest news around this uranium mining player with a large portfolio of uranium assets in the renowned Athabasca Basin?

UEX Corporation had announced a measly $700,000 private placement at the start of May, which eventually closed as a $2M oversubscribed private towards the end of May. Such a small quantity of capital was raised as part of a "hard-dollar financing" strategy. It was intended to be used as a small working capital boost to enable UEX Corporation to do some more work at the Christie Lake uranium project. On August 4th, UEX Corporation commenced drilling at Ōrora North within the wider Christe Lake project. The first phase of this summer drilling program will consist of three holes, resulting in 1,800m of drilling. A possible second phase will hinge on the results of the first, with anomalies being hunted enthusiastically with the potential for high-grade, low-cost uranium on the horizon. 

As the most active uranium explorer in the Athabasca Basin, how will Lemaitre and his team systematically decide which average uranium assets to offload and which to develop?

Precipitate Gold is yet another gold mining story looking to make its mark. Precipitate Gold is a gold developer that owns 3 gold assets in the Dominican Republic: the flagship Pueblo Grande gold project, the early-stage Ponton gold project and the parked up Juan de Herrera gold project.

What is the latest news? The ground magnetics geophysical survey conducted at the Copey Hill epithermal gold target of the 100%-owned Ponton Project has reported rock samples of 53g/t gold and 17g/t gold. In general, this project could have some good geological potential. Ponton's tenement measures 3,250ha and it is excitingly situated just 35km East of Barrick's 'world-class' Pueblo Viejo mine and 20km east of Pueblo Grande Project. Investors should note that Pueblo Viejo is the largest active gold mining operation in Latin America and is a top-5 global gold asset. One couldn't really wish for better company. Things appear to be lining up nicely and the share price has been on the rise impressively. 

It is clear than Precipitate Gold is trying to leverage the under-explored, highly-prospective nature of Dominican geology to develop Ponton into a de-risked, district-scale gold resource before selling it to a mid-tier/major gold mining company.

Precipitate Gold has sufficient capital to continue drilling at Ponton. Work includes selective surface geochemical sampling, systematic rock-clay alteration surveying (via portable spectral mineral analysers), geological mapping and, most importantly, an initial 2,500m of exploration drilling.

Precipitate Gold has recently signed an agreement with gold giant Barrick Gold for Pueblo Grande: a $10M earn-in agreement for 70% interest if it meets certain conditions. Precipitate Gold has US$2.3M of cash to conduct its drill programme alongside Barrick at Pueblo Grande, while keeping Ponton as the second priority. Juan de Herrera still has regional licensing issues and sits on the backburner. It is probably likely to raise more capital before the end of 2020.

It has been a very difficult few years for silver explorers, silver developers and silver producers. Endeavour Silver is one such silver mining company that has suffered. However, the recent buzz generated by a soaring silver price has driven value into Endeavour Silver's stock for the first time since 2017. Is this just a story that has been riding the wave of silver price discovery, or is there more to like about it?

Endeavour Silver is a mid-tier silver producer with assets in Mexico; specifically, 3 high-grade, underground silver-gold mines in Mexico: Guanacevi, Bolanitos, El Compas. Endeavour Silver also owns 2 development projects, Terronera, El Cubo, and a variety of silver exploration tenements: in Mexico, Parral, Lourdes and Guadalupe y Calvo, and in Chile, Cerro Marquez, Aida and Paloma. 

Endeavour Silver wants to be a silver turnaround story. They have produced a lot of cash in the past and if they can extend life of mines for their underground projects and get lucky with the drill bit in Chile this could indeed be a story which starts to meet its promise. A long way to go between now and then, and will be interesting to following. The latest numbers to come out of Terronera in a PFS are very impressive: with a base case silver price of $15.97/oz silver and $1,419/oz gold, an 30% IRR  and an NPV(5%) of $137M over an initial 10-year mine life. Could this latest potential source of silver production create even more value for shareholders?

Galane Gold is a gold producer and explorer that has experienced a bit of success recently, though the share price has tailed off in the last few weeks. Galane Gold has gold mining operations and exploration tenements in Botswana and South Africa. These are two of the better gold mining jurisdictions in Africa.

Galane Gold was first listed on the CVE in September 2011, so this is a story 9 years in the making. The formation of the company was quite complicated, with Galane Gold acquiring Gallery Gold from IAMGOLD in August 2011, with Gallery Gold being the 100% owner of Botswanan gold producer, Mupane Gold Mining, which has been producing gold from the Mupane operation since back in 2005. Further acquisitions were made in 2015, as Galane Gold acquired Galaxy Gold, a South American gold player that restarted operations sometime in 2019. 

The long-term aim for Sood and his experienced team is to turn Galane Gold into a meaningful gold producer that can create value across gold cycles. Mupane has produced 700,000oz of gold since 2005, and Galane will hope to continue in this vein, as the company targets exploration and development to increase the mine life and the size of the resource. Mupane looks promising and is situated within the Tati Greenstone Belt, which is part of the larger Zimbabwe Craton, a renowned and prolific area for gold production, producing in excess of 77Moz of gold historically. Over 120 exploration targets have been identified based on geochemistry and aero-magnetic work. 

Back in March 2018, Galane agreed on a JV with B2Gold in the shape of an earn-in agreement. B2Gold would be enabled to acquire up to a 70% stake in the company by spending $4M over 3-years to bankroll 70% of the JV, and by targeting a 1Moz+ resource.
