In this episode, we chat to George Salamis, President, and CEO of Interga Resources who is a development-stage mining company focused on the exploration and de-risking of the past-producing DeLamar Gold-Silver Project in Idaho, USA.

George has a geology background and over 30 years of experience in the mining and resource exploration industry and has been involved in over $2 billion of M&A transactions, either through assets sales or his involvement with junior mining companies. He tells us more about Interga Resources and what the future holds for them moving forward with the PFS.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• The DeLamar project was acquired from Kinross. Interga is taking a different approach to once again extract gold and silver there.
• The infrastructure that was left behind when Kinross stopped mining there in the 90s, is still available.
• Using heat bleaching will create cash flow to build the mill, should it be financially attractive to do so.
• The project can be scaled slowly or quickly, to fit in with market conditions, which minimises risk and maximises profits.
• When in full production again DeLamar will be one of the largest gold and silver producers in the USA.
• Idaho understands the benefits of mining and are very welcoming.
• Integra has already found over a hundred intersects of high-grade finds and has many more targeted areas to explore.
• This is a tier-one asset in a low-risk jurisdiction.

‘When we acquired the project from Kinross, we had a sense that there was a lot of gold and silver resources left behind. ´

‘Having a number of different options available to develop an asset is key to longevity.’

‘It’s in a low-risk jurisdiction and is a very large asset.’

In this episode, we have a returning guest who appeared back in July 2019 (Episode 36). Jeff Quartermaine is the MD & CEO of Perseus Mining who are a rapidly growing, West African gold producer, developer, and explorer who currently operate 3 gold mines in Ghana and Cote d’Ivoire.

Jeff has been with Perseus for over 12 years and has more than 30 years of experience in senior corporate, financial, and strategic management roles with ASX and TSX-listed resources companies involving operations in Australia, as well as countries in the Asia Pacific, South America, and West Africa. Jeff gives us an update on the tremendous progress the company has achieved over the last 2.5 years and what the outlook is for the company over the next few years.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Despite CoVid Perseus has been able to finish the construction of their 3rd mine (Yaouré), ahead of schedule and under budget.
• They have built 2 successful mines, in the past 4 years.
• In December 2021, they poured the first gold at Yaouré and started commercial production in March 2021.
• During the remainder of 2021, they produced 199,000 ounces from Yaouré.
• The Yaouré Gold Mine and area has far more minerals than anticipated.
• Currently, the company is producing half a million ounces of gold, per year, with between 300 and 400 million in cashflow
• Over the next 10 years they are planning to grow by exploring and possibly via acquisitions.
• Mining in Africa holds challenges because there is a lot of competition for land and in some places rogue miners to deal with.
• Due to difficult geo-politics both the Saudi and Namibian shields are under-explored. But conditions are now right for extensive exploration to start.

BEST MOMENTS

‘That rapid increase got us to 199,000 ounces in calendar 21. ´

‘It looks very much to me that we will be mining at Yaouré for many years to come.’

‘We are very resilient, we don´t get knocked off course easily.’

In this episode, we speak to Krishan Gopaul, Senior Research Analyst at the World Gold Council. He discusses what happened with Gold Demand Trends in 2021 and in more current times, the Gold Market outlook for 2022, and what the Gold market expects.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• In 2021, the jewellery, technology, and motoring sectors recovered, so demand for gold was strong from them.
• The Indian jewellery market was especially interesting.
• Demand from banks was high. Krishan explains why and which ones bought the most.
• Inflation is leading to consumers investing in gold coins. Krishan shares the figures and the story behind that.
• But high ETF outflows dragged down the overall investment level.
• For ETFs, there are currently very strong competing forces at play, which makes it hard to predict what will happen.

• For mining, the picture was mixed. Krishan talks through which jurisdictions were up and which were down and explains why.
• Most supply issues have been resolved.

In this episode, we chat to Eldur Olafsson, Founder, and CEO at AEX Gold, a Greenland-focussed mining company engaged in the identification, acquisition, exploration, and development of gold properties in Greenland.

Eldur has a background in geology. He talks about AEX Gold and what they have been up to recently. Eldur also discusses Greenland as a mining jurisdiction and talks about the companies exploring this under-developed country with huge potential.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Southern Greenland has a lot of surface minerals and rare earth, as well as a gold belt. The whole country has barely been explored.
• Now that demand is high, it is economically viable to explore and mine in Greenland.
• $150 million has been invested in civil infrastructure and Greenland is a stable country.
• With the right equipment, it is easy to operate year-round in Greenland.
• Most of it is barren, so it is relatively easy to mine in an environmentally friendly way.
• All of the political parties are highly supportive of mining.
• Most of the country is now licensed and is being explored by well-established companies.
• Bringing Nalunaq, a high-rate gold mine, back into production is currently AEX Gold´s main project.
• Nalunaq has full permits and there are other high-grade minerals there, close to the surface.
• In AEX Gold´s other assets they are finding multiple minerals and metals. Including the ones needed for the green revolution.
• The island is sparsely populated, so recruiting enough people will be difficult. But many Greenlanders are choosing to train to work in the industry.
• The aim is to ensure that when the mines are finished the community continues to benefit e.g., green power sources and re-vegetation of areas.

BEST MOMENTS

‘Nalunaq is one of the highest gold rate mines in the world. ´

‘Greenland opened up only in 2009.’

‘We are now sitting on what I believe is one of the best land and districts for strategic precious metals.’

In this episode, we chat with a returning guest that appeared in June 2019 on episode 31. Steven Poulton is the co-founder of Altus Strategies who are a project and royalty generator in the mining sector with a focus on Africa who creates value by making mineral discoveries across multiple licences. 

They are listed on the London & Toronto Stock Exchange, and we get an update on what they have been doing since we last spoke and discuss what projects they have been involved in.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Since 2020, there have been major disruptions around the world. In Atuls's case, they have doubled in size, and found even more ways to work harder - first because of royalty acquisitions, and secondly because of the company's ability to train up geologists and the mobilisation of operations.
• In Egypt, there are many opportunities for gold exploration, including projections of six-to-ten million dollars in cashflow per year from the royalty portfolio, as well as monetising the gold deposits in other areas.
• Africa has been quieter in terms of royalty, but tis is largely due to 90% of the royalty base being North-American based these days.
• There is a huge geopolitical move towards electrification in terms of economy in the next two to three years, but this will depend on what the western world can achieve when it comes to renewables such as wind and solar.

BEST MOMENTS

'It's been a busy two-and-a-half years!'

'We have found new and innovative ways to work even harder'

'If we're successful with Mother Nature, we'll be able to replicate what we've done'

'We think that gold is a great place to be for the next two to three years'
