Interview with Jerry Xie, Executive Vice President and Corporate Secretary of China Gold International Resources Corp. (TSX: CGG, HKSE: 2099)

China Gold is a Chinese gold producer with two gold assets in Tibet and Inner Mongolia. We caught up with Xie after we last interviewed him in mid-February. China Gold is hitting the ball out of the park when it comes to operational numbers, and it has not been significantly hampered by COVID-19.

However, more gold and more cash has not equalled more net profit for China gold; this is a problem that Xie talks about as he seeks to rectify it.

The real issue for China Gold is the share price. While everything else seems to be performing, the share price has fallen even further to just half of its value in the space of a few months. The real uncertainty factor that is stopping the market jumping in with both feet is the precarious nature of China Gold's US$500M bond that matures this July. They are rolling that over and raising money in the market. What happens if the market says no? Xie says he has a backup plan... we suspect that may be their major shareholder and backer, China National Gold, the largest gold miner in China.

Interview with Jon Bey, President & CEO of Standard Uranium (TSX-V:STND)

Standard Uranium (TSX-V: STND) is a Canadian uranium exploration company that IPO'd on the 29th of April. Standard Uranium's primary focus is on its Davidson River flagship project within the Southwest Athabasca Uranium District. The project lies just outside the Athabasca Basin, which is renowned for uranium discoveries, but can Bey and his team deliver?

The business plan is to make a promising uranium discovery, then progress it through to eventual uranium production. Bey thinks he has assembled a team that has all the skill and experience needed to become a uranium producer. Davidson River is regarded by Bey as untouched and highly-prospective.

Standard Uranium is announcing that it has signed an engagement letter with Red Cloud and Eight Capital to raise C$3M of combined hard dollars and flow-through dollars. C$2M has been assigned to drilling Davidson River. The drilling should start in mid-July. This should get Standard Uranium moving and enhance the liquidity of the stock.

Interview with Mark Santarossa, VP Corp. Development of Aurion Resources (TSX-V:AU)

Aurion Resources Ltd.: a Canadian gold prospector that has become a gold explorer. The company is listed on the TSX.

The company has JVs with some major gold mining companies and has attracted the attention of gold investors, including many big institutional names. The share price has boomed as a consequence. Is it all just hype driven by the high-grade, at-surface gold held within Aurion Resource's Norwegian gold assets, or is there more to this exciting gold mining story?

Interview with Hayden Locke, CEO of Emmerson PLC (LSE:EML)

Emmerson is a potash developer based in Morocco. Emmerson's primary focus is on developing the Khemisset Potash Project in Northern Morocco. Morocco, the gateway between Europe and Africa, is a favourable jurisdiction for both mining and business.

The potash market is dominated by China and is a little saturated. Does the market need another potash story right now? Buyers would argue yes as competition is good for price. The investment market is possibly less sure, but Locke explains why he thinks being a lowest quartile cost producer removes the uncertainty for them. Gold is flourishing, and plenty of other commodities have seen exciting recent events act as catalysts to spur encouraging levels of growth. The potash market itself has a modest 2-3% growth pa and the price has been stagnant.

We are keen to see how the business plan progresses, with the next step being FS and finding a funding solution which minimises the dilution.

However, the fundamental macro story of potash combined with the low capital intensity of Khemisset paints a very positive picture for Emmerson, especially considering most potash projects are very costly. What can Locke deliver in 2020 to add further value to a share price that has been soaring recently?

What did you make of Hayden Locke?

Interview with Sam Spring, President & CEO of Kincora Copper (TSX-V:KCC)

Kincora Copper: a copper-gold exploration company that is listed on the TSX-V. Kincora Resources has assets in both Mongolia and Australia. A typical exploration story, or something more?

Founded in 1983, Kincora Resources consolidated a district-scale land package in Mongolia at the start of the last decade. However, disappointing drill results led the company to segue towards new Australian porphyry assets along the prestigious Lachlan Fold Belt.

What is the plan for 2020? It will be delivered by a truly excellent team who are experts in copper and gold, especially within this particular district, but what can Spring do to add value for shareholders. An intriguing, encouraging copper-gold story.

Interview with Peter Grosskopf, CEO of Sprott Inc.

Investing insights and a warning. The global economy is not OK and at some point the cracks can't be plastered over. How do retail investors protect themselves? What should they be doing as cash goes negative?

We talk about digitising gold and the practicalities. Plus what is his call on physical gold price. What no screamingly alarmist headline! Sorry no. Grosskopf does not need headline grabbing statements to get noticed. He has carefully brought process and data to the way Sprott functions and is now at the helm of the 'last man standing' in the natural resources space. So when it comes to gold price, we're listening to this guy and ignoring the sensationalists.

Interview with Gary Thompson, President & CEO of Brixton Metals (TSX-V:BBB)

Brixton Metals is a gold-silver explorer/developer that is 10 years in the making. The focus is on advancing its wholly-owned projects in the Golden Triangle of British Colombia. The two flagship projects are the Thorn Copper-Gold-Silver Project and the Hog Heaven Silver-Gold-Copper Project, acquired from Pan American Silver in 2017. Drill results are due for the latter project this week.

There's some good stuff on display here for this gold player, but this story is lacking in a lot of specifics to give a sense of true confidence.

Interview with Colin Locke, Exec. Chairman of Krakatoa Resources (ASX:KTA)

Combining gold, copper, and rare earths is certainly an interesting concoction.

Krakatoa Resources: a copper-gold and rare earths exploration company that is focussing on fresh copper-gold porphyry discoveries in the Lachlan Fold Belt of New South Wales, Australia. The two core projects? The Turon Gold Project and the Belgravia Porphyry Project.

The company is on the doorstep of Australia's largest gold mine: Cadia, owned by Newcrest Mining Limited (ASX: NCM). However, does this gold explorer have anything else going for itself that would inspire investor confidence? Gold investors will need to decide for themselves.

Fremont Gold: a gold company that is based in Nevada. Fremont Gold is targeting fresh gold discoveries in the 'world's best' mining region.

The central focus is on advancing the Griffon gold project, which last produced in 1999. The management team looks impressive on paper. What is the next step for this gold developer?
