The KE Report

In this episode, we are joined by Brien Lundin, Editor of the Gold Newsletter and host of the prestigious New Orleans Investment Conference. Brien provides an insider’s recap of the recent PDAC and MIF conferences in Toronto, sharing why he believes the resource sector is currently on the verge of a historic re-rating.

Key Discussion Points:

Market Sentiment and PDAC Recap: Brien discusses the overwhelming enthusiasm at recent industry conferences, noting that for the first time in years, the vast majority of companies are presenting fundamentally strong investment arguments.

The Power of Cut-Off Grades: As gold prices reach new heights, companies are recalculating their resources. Brian explains how dropping a cut-off grade can instantly increase a project’s defined ounces by 50% to 100%, significantly boosting the bottom line.

Production vs. Exploration Dynamics: While majors are maximizing production to capture high margins, Brien highlights why the exploration end of the market remains the most exciting area for triple-digit returns.

Strategic Stock Picks: Brien shares his current outlook on specific companies, including Prospector Metals (PPP.V) and Cassiar Gold (GLDC.V), as well as emerging opportunities in critical metals like tungsten through Spartan Metals (SPAT.CN).

A Dual Bull Market: We explore the rare occurrence of a simultaneous secular bull market in both monetary metals (gold and silver) and base metals (copper), driven by intense supply constraints and high demand from the tech sector.

Tim Shearcroft,  CEO and Co-Founder of BP Silver Corp. (TSXV: BPAG), joins me for a review of some bonanza-grade final assay results from the remaining eight drill holes of its eleven-hole Phase I drill program at the Cosuño Silver Project in Bolivia. We discuss the follow up geophysics survey and goals of the Phase II exploration program. Additionally, the Company is working on finalizing the title at their Titiri Project, located in a major under-explored silver belt with Tier 1 discovery potential.

 

Phase I Highlights:

 

Drilling intersected multiple zones of high-grade silver mineralization at the Pocañita Chica target: Diamond Drill Hole # CO-0008 returned 5m @ 600.4 g/t silver, including 1m @ 1655 g/t silver;

Diamond Drill Hole # CO-0009 returned 1m @ 526 g/t silver and 6m @ 147 g/t silver.

The Program achieved its primary objective of confirming silver mineralization within the lithocap beneath surface geochemical anomalies, materially de-risking Cosuño.

Silver mineralization was intersected in all four targets tested across an approximately 2.7 km NE-SW corridor, confirming the presence of a robust silver and polymetallic system which remains open for expansion along strike and at depth.

 

The Program successfully tested key zones along a 2.7 km structural trend, returning significant silver intercepts at the 4 targets tested to date (Figures 1 to 3):

 

Pocañita Chica – Broad mineralized envelopes with high-grade silver intervals hosted in hydrothermal breccias.

Pocalleta – Structurally controlled vein mineralization confirming depth potential.

Jalsuri – High-grade silver intercepts with gold 2.7 km northeast of Pocañita Chica, indicating district-scale continuity.

Benhur – Additional silver mineralization along the same structural corridor.

 

Additionally, their team is working with the government to finalize obtaining the title to begin exploration on their Titiri Project.  Titiri was staked over a large land concession containing outcropping mineralization historically explored by ASARCO.  This Project contains a 2.5km-long silver-lead-zinc zone, with excellent historical trench results, that was never drilled. Titiri is a very High Priority structural setting at the intersection of several major crustal-scale faults, along which multiple deposits occur.  There is a MOU in place with local communities, and they’d like to get on the ground for exploration in mid-2026.

John Miniotis, President and CEO of AbraSilver Resource Corp (TSX: ABRA) (OTCQX: ABBRF), joins me to review the March 2nd news that announced its flagship Diablillos silver-gold project has been formally approved for inclusion under Argentina's Large Investment Incentive Regime ("RIGI").   We also discussed the upcoming catalysts of the updated Mineral Resource estimate (“MRE”), Definitive Feasibility Study (“DFS”), Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) permit, and ongoing Phase 6 Exploration Program for the balance of 2026.

 

The RIGI approval was confirmed by Argentina's Minister of Economy, Luis Caputo, through his official X account on Friday February 27th. The official government resolution announcing RIGI approval for the Diablillos project is expected later in March.

 

RIGI is a federal investment framework designed to accelerate large-scale development projects in Argentina by providing long-term fiscal stability along with competitive tax, customs, and foreign-exchange benefits. Both Salta and Catamarca Provinces, where Diablillos is located, have opted into the regime. This RIGI approval substantially increases the project's economics, with around $1Billion in savings at current spot prices, and this provides increased certainty as Diablillos moves into its next phase of development and eventual construction.

 

John takes us through the busy year of catalysts the company has on tap, starting with all the drilling data from Phase V being compiled into an updated Resource Estimate that will come out in parallel with their Definitive Feasibility Study, which is due out in the 2nd quarter of 2026.  Additionally, the Company is awaiting their EIA permit, which will be the trigger for a construction decision later in the year.

 

John highlighted that ongoing detailed engineering work, procurement planning, and upgrades to existing infrastructure are also advancing in parallel to ensure construction readiness. Following receipt of the EIA, the Company intends to initiate early works in a phased and disciplined manner, while continuing to advance project financing to fund the mine build.

 

If you have any follow up questions for John regarding at AbraSilver, then please email them into me at [email protected].
