Mining Stock Education

Seasoned resource fund manager Warren Irwin returns to MSE to talk mining scams: “There really is no penalties for scamming people in Canada in the mining sector. I cannot think of a single person that has done any jailtime. They may get fines or slap on the wrist or not being allowed to be a director or whatever. If you are into organized crime, get into the mining business because there is no penalties and there is lots of money to be made.” Warren also discusses his current mining stock holdings and explains why he sold NexGen Energy: “I know way more than I could every say.” 0:00 Intro 0:43 Reflecting on the Bre-X scam 9:21 Realizing Bre-X was a scam 12:38 Tenacious due diligence 18:25 “When are you going to twin the holes?” 20:31 Michael de Guzman alive?! 26:50 People complicit with the fraud 33:34 “There is no penalties for scamming people in Canada” 37:03 Warren’s Solaris Resources’ commentary 40:00 Selling NexGen: “I know way more than I could ever say” 42:45 Addressing Uranium super-bulls 47:24 Are you shorting NexGen? 48:48 Current mining stock holdings Warren’s fund: https://www.rosseau.com/ Warren’s Twitter: https://twitter.com/bigdude6669 To learn about Warren’s first-hand experience with the Bre-X mining scam of the 90’s listen to our in-depth interview from PDAC 2018: http://www.miningstockeducation.com/2018/04/warren-irwin-discerning-mining-stock-scams-from-bre-x-until-today-top-hedge-fund-manager-shares-insights-pdac-2018/ Warren’s Bre-X article: https://ceo.ca/@warrenirwin/2016s-top-hedge-fund-manager-relives-historys-greatest-gold-scam BBC Bre-X podcast: https://www.cbc.ca/listen/cbc-podcasts/1428-the-six-billion-dollar-gold-scam/episode/16069066-episode-1-the-dollar6-billion-gold-scam Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Mining Stock Education (MSE) offers informational content based on available data but it does not constitute investment, tax, or legal advice.

Pro gold stock investor David Erfle explains why you should not buy a junior gold mining stock unless it has 3x-10x upside. David also provides commentary on the gold price and shares the rationale behind selling one of his gold stocks in order to purchase two different outperforming junior mining precious metals stocks. David Erfle is a self-taught mining sector investor. He stumbled upon the mining space in 2003 as he was looking to invest into a growing sector of the market. After researching the gains made from the 2001 bottom in the tiny gold and silver complex, he became fascinated with this niche market. So much so that in 2005 he decided to sell his home and invest the entire proceeds from the sale into junior mining companies. When his account had tripled by September, 2007, he decided to quit his job as the Telecommunications Equipment Buyer at UCLA and make investing in this sector his full-time job. David founded the Junior Miner Junky subscription-based newsletter in April, 2017 and writes a weekly column for precious metals news service Kitco.com, whose website attracts nearly a million visits every day. 0:00 Introduction 0:46 Gold price commentary 2:58 Selling one junior mining stock to buy two others 7:03 Buying a mine build junior mining stock 9:21 Deploying money into an outperforming mining stock 13:54 Why you need your watchlist prepared 15:28 Time to buy gold explorers? 18:11 West African gold mining stocks 20:18 Importance of timing in junior mining speculation 21:14 Gold producers 25:40 Keeping an eye of gold mines Newmont is divesting David’s website: https://juniorminerjunky.com/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 The content found on MiningStockEducation.com is for informational purposes only and is not to be considered personal legal or investment advice or a recommendation to buy or sell securities or any other product.

“There has been a bit of a demographic shift. Guys my age are retiring, and they are not putting a lot of their money to risk as much anymore. Even the flow-through market here…there used to be a lot of doctors, dentists, lawyers that would typically put money in flow-through funds to get the tax advantage. The Canadian government has changed some of those rules and made it a lot harder. So, I think that is part of the disconnect [between the gold price and gold miners’ valuations],” says mining sector expert Brian Christie. Listen to this MSE interview for more insights from Mr. Christie. Brian Christie has vast mining sector experience. He began his career as a geologist and saw two mineral discoveries first-hand. Then he traveled the world as a journalist for The Northern Miner. Brian next served as a mining equity analyst for nearly two decades before leading the investor relations team at Agnico Eagle, a leading gold producer. Currently, Brian is on the board of directors for Wallbridge Mining and, since May 2023, is the chairman of Fury Gold Mines (MSE sponsor). 0:00 Introduction 1:30 BHP proposed takeover of Anglo American 2:52 Bullish copper 3:45 Look at smaller-scale copper producers 4:47 Can there be too much M&A? 5:57 Gold executive mistakes at cycle peaks 8:34 Exploration projects: own 100% or seek JV? 10:27 G Mining to buy Reunion Gold 11:25 Demographic shift impacting gold miner valuations 14:21 Must know geology to be successful retail investor? 15:50 Good geology will get rid of bad management? 16:44 “Balance promotion vs facts” 19:17 Naked shorting a problem in Canada? 20:57 Fury Gold upcoming newsflow Sponsor: https://furygoldmines.com/ Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Fury Gold Mines is a Mining Stock Education sponsor.

“This sector [junior mining] when you think about it is fascinatingly dumb in a sense and so fascinatingly predictable. Because like Pierre Lassonde says it is the easiest sector in the world. His simple reasoning is that it always crashes and then always rallies. We’ve had the crash. What is the next step? We know what the next step is. The question is if we are going to be there for it. The next big move in the junior space is obviously up. I know a lot of people are worrying about the crash. But the crash has already happened,” says private investor Erik Wetterling in this MSE episode.
