Luis Santana, CEO and Director of GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV: GQC) (OTCQX: GDQMF), joins me for a comprehensive introduction to this Canadian exploration and development company, with strong participation from Dominican investors, focused on advancing its gold, copper, silver, and zinc assets in the Dominican Republic. The Company has a Board of Directors and management team with prior experience developing and operating a mine in the country, and they are drilling to move towards an updated Resource Estimate and Bankable Feasibility Study later in 2026. 

We start off reviewing the history of the company where the initial resource and project economics were outlined on the Romero and Romero South deposits back in 2016, bringing in Agnico Eagle as a key stakeholder.  Then in 2017 a new discovery was made at the Cachimbo area, but there were organized community protests and the company went dormant for a few years, with out the surrounding community buy-in.  Then in 2022 Luis was chosen as CEO to work on the social license and advancing the Romero Project once again.  After a few years of community outreach, engagement, and education, there is finally a majority support for advancing the project.

The Company today has 57 employees and ~150 contractors working on the ground, and the exploration team is finishing up a 5,000 meter drill program at Cachimbo.   There is additional exploration going on around Romero and Romero south that will factor into the updated Resource Estimate and BFS later this year.   These are polymetallic VMS deposits that contain gold, copper, silver, and zinc mineralization, giving them an internally hedged advantage, and the ability to highlight the critical minerals for permitting and strategic importance of the Project.
