Charles Funk, President and CEO of Heliostar Metals (TSX.V:HSTR - OTCQX:HSTXF - FRA: RGG1) joins me for a comprehensive update following drill results from La Colorada and the launch of a large drill program at Ana Paula.

In this update, we cover:

  • Strong Balance Sheet - Closed Q1 with $38M CAD in cash, over half from operations.

  • La Colorada Drill Results - Recent drill results show high-grade gold (5–25 g/t Au) from the 12,500m program, well above the average resource grade. Expansion to a 15,000m+ program underway.

  • La Colorada Production Potential - Expansion potential to increase production from 50,000 to 100,000 oz/year, supported by an upcoming technical report mid-year. Future underground mining potential.

  • Ana Paula Drill Program Launched – Largest program in company history (15,000m), combining infill and step-out drilling to grow high-grade resources and test satellite zones.

  • Near-Term Catalysts - Drill results, updated technical studies, and potential permitting for production expansion.

Charles outlines the strategic vision: restart of San Antonio and expanded production at La Colorada could yield ~$120M in cash flow over the next 2-2.5 years with low CapEx. Setting the stage to bring Ana Paula online and potentially reach 200,000 oz/year production by 2028.
