• Dynasty Gold represents a significant investor opportunity in the secure North American gold market, holding a still small market resting on an impressive portfolio potential.
• The company has two 100% owned gold assets (Ontario and Nevada) in two of the most desirable mineral belts in North America.
• Thundercloud project hosts a measured and indicated resource of 232,000 oz at 8.04 g/t, an impressive high-grade for an open–pit mine, or 439,000 at 2.14 g/t (internal resource estimate, not NI43-101), a robust open-pit mine. The drill holes are shallow holes of less than 250 meters in length and it opens at depth.
• Investment potential in both properties is further boosted by their proven historical locations and easy access to key mining infrastructure.
• Recently completed Phase 1 drilling at flagship Thundercloud Property indicates the presence of a robust mineralized system.
• The company’s strategic focus is to expand its resource base with similar high-potential properties while advancing current exploration efforts.

Canadian gold exploration company Dynasty Gold Corp. (TSX.V: DYG) (OTC: DGDCF) is rapidly emerging as a key player in the sector, due to its portfolio, its recent drilling results, and the unique position it has in the industry, along with a small market cap compared to the huge potential of its assets.

Specifically, Dynasty made rapid progress in developing its Thundercloud asset in Ontario since its acquisition of the project in October 2021:

In the last two short years Dynasty has advanced the Thundercloud resource from 137,000 inferred resource at 1.37 g/t to 232,000 oz measured and indicated at 8.04 g/t of 3.03 g/t (its internal resource estimates. An impressive high-grade resource for an open-pit mine. At 0.5 g/t cut-off, the project is boosted to 439,000 oz at 2.14 g/t. 90% of drill holes are shallow holes and less than 250m in length and 90% of the property untested by drilling. The company continues to drill to increase the resource.

All of these factors make Dynasty Gold an attractive option for investors looking to support a fast-growing company in an expanding sector, with realistic potential for substantial gains.

The company has two 100% owned gold assets located in two of the most profitable mining camps in Canada and the United States:

Thundercloud Property (Ontario)

Strategically located in the Archean Manitou-Stormy Lakes Greenstone belt in Western Ontario, with a geological setting similar to the Abitibi belt but much less explored, the Thundercloud Property, Dynasty Gold’s flagship project, covers approximately 5,560 acres. The property has easy access to excellent infrastructure, being situated 47 kilometers southeast of the resource-based town of Dryden, Ontario and accessible via the Trans-Canada Highway. Ontario is renowned for rich mineral deposits and supportive mining infrastructure and Dryden provides key infrastructure for mining operations.

The property has significant potential for bulk-tonnage orogenic gold mineralization, with high-grade mineralization. Approximately 30 million ounces of gold have been discovered in the area over the last few years.

Dynasty Gold has recently completed Phase 1 of its 2024 Drill Program at the property, with impressive results. “Dynasty completed Phase 1 of the 4,000 meters planned drilling, consisting of 11 holes for a total of 2,198 meters,” Ivy Chong, President and CEO, was quoted as saying in a company press release (https://ibn.fm/TF8wH).

“The eight holes within the Pelham Zone all intersected intervals from 10+ to 70 meters of strong pyrite veinlets and disseminations similar to that associated with high-grade mineralization in the previous two years of grades up to 8.4 g/t gold over 73.5m including 151.7 g/t gold over 3.0m,” Chong added. Similar mineralization was intersected within the three holes drilled approximately 300m to the west under an area with multiple small historic exploration pits.

Selected Previous High Grades Intervals

72.2 g/t over 6.5m – DP22-03

65.2 g/t over 3.0m – DP22-02

38.3 g/t over 1.0m – PH88-10

37.5 g/t over 1.0m – TC08-11

19.3 g/t over 3.0m – DP23-01

18.3 g/t over 3.0m – DP23-01

11.2 g/t over 3.0m – DP23-10

11.0 g/t over 12m – DP23-04

10.4 g/t over 6.0m – DP23-03

8.8 g/t over 7.5m – DP23-10

8.3 g/t over 3.0m – DP22-05

7.1 g/t over 14.8m-DP23-03

July of this year drill results are pending. Drilling was set to recommence in September to test the remaining 90% of the property untested by drilling. This area has huge potential for more gold discovery. The goal is to increase the resource to 1 million oz.

The high-grade intercepts indicate the presence of a robust mineralized system, which can further boost the project’s resource estimate and the company’s profile on the market. This degree of mineralization at a comparatively shallow depth (less than 250 meters, while similar projects often need to drill 700+ meters for similar results) further enhances the project’s attractiveness to investors.

The Golden Repeat Property (Nevada)

Strategically located in the prolific Midas region, along the Carlin Trend within the Northern Nevada Rift, the property covers approximately 968 acres, comprising 49 mining claims. These claims share geological similarities with gold properties in the Midas Gold Camp, with epithermal bonanza-style high grade gold-and-silver deposits. The property has easy access to key mining infrastructure, is surrounded by other major gold mines and is easily accessible from Interstate 80.

The Golden Repeat project was briefly explored in the 1990s, when Gold Fields and Romarco Minerals drilled five holes. Dynasty Gold drilled three more holes in 2011, leaving a large portion of the property untested by drilling.

While continuing exploration at its two key projects, Dynasty Gold plans to expand its portfolio with other quality, high potential properties with good infrastructure in mineral-reach areas, with the ultimate goal of increasing shareholder value and cementing its role in the expanding gold market. According to 2023 statistics from the Word Gold Council, the physical financial gold market – made up of bars, coins, gold ETFs and central bank reserves – is worth nearly $5 trillion (https://ibn.fm/EpNkq). Gold prices have also shown a rising trend recently, with the spot price of gold reaching $2,577 per ounce as of Sept. 17, 2024 (https://ibn.fm/r2EdF).

With an experienced exploration team led by seasoned geologists with proven track records in mineral discoveries, and with a unique market position highlighted by its minuscule market capitalization with significant asset potential, Dynasty Gold is on track to becoming a key player in the sector, offering investors and shareholders access to attractive opportunities and a solid return on investment.

• Company’s flagship Duquesne West Gold Property is believed to host an estimated historical mineral resource of 727,000 ounces of gold.
• Emperor Metals aims to scale this resource as quickly and efficiently as possible, with the goal of increasing its market cap and enhancing shareholder value.
• An updated mineral resource estimate (“MRE”) is planned for Q1 2025, based on drilling results achieved last year and this year’s overall 16,000 meters assayed, and associated cutoff grades are planned to be significantly lowered.

Emperor Metals (CSE: AUOZ) (OTCQB: EMAUF) (FSE: 9NH), an advanced stage gold exploration company, was recently featured on IBN’s The MiningNewsWire Podcast, where Head of Corporate Development and Director Alex Horsley discussed the company’s flagship Duquesne West gold project, recent achievements and near-term plans and goals (https://ibn.fm/BXCZO).

“People are always talking about location, location, location, and we happen to be in the Southern Abitibi of Quebec, in the heart of this district surrounded by 15 gold producing mines – an area that’s produced 200 million ounces of gold.” Horsley said, explaining that the Duquesne West gold project has a historical resource of 727,000 ounces of gold, “and what’s really crucial is that it’s high grade, with an average of 5.42 grams of gold per ton and a robust average thickness of 5.7 meters.”

Emperor Metals’ mission is to grow the Duquesne West resource as quickly, cost efficiently and strategically as possible. “Our resource was based on a 3.0-gram cutoff grade in a 2.5-meter thickness, and it was also based on $960 gold back when that historical report was done in 2011. What is really exciting is that, since 2011, gold is up 150%,” Horsley said.

The Emperor Metals executive also talked about the company’s successful drilling campaign at Duquesne West last year, when it achieved high-grade intercepts, and what he described as the biggest achievement of 2023 – identifying a conceptual open-pit model. The new open pit model shows gold potential on top of the existing high-grade underground gold resource, granting Emperor Metals the opportunity for multiple production scenarios.

Emperor Metals aims to continue this momentum with a fully funded Phase II drilling program, which began in May 2024 with the goal of enhancing the open-pit model. The program consists of 8,000 meters drilling/assaying and 8,000 meters of historical core assaying.

The company will use these results to generate an updated mineral resources estimate that has the potential to be transformative. The updated estimate will be created by a third party and is expected to be completed by Q1 2025. “In that updated MRE, we are planning to significantly lower the cutoff grades,” Horsley added. “We’re quite excited to have this unique asset in the most prolific and productive gold mining camp in Canada. It’s a special opportunity.”

Horsley also talked about the extensive experience of the company’s team in the mining sector, led by CEO John Florek. “We have an exceptional technical team, and as gold juniors go, the project we have is high grade, robust average thickness, and significant historical resource with significant potential for resource expansion. We’re very excited to move this project along,” he said.

In addition to the updated mineral resource estimate, the company’s plans for the near future include an expanded drilling program in 2025 and building of investor awareness. “We’re positioned better than, in my opinion, 95% other gold juniors because of the location, the grade, the thickness and the exploration upside led by one of the best exploration teams in the business,” Horsley added.

• Electronic monitoring (“EM”) technology is becoming increasingly popular among European governments as a means of advancing the social inclusion of criminal offenders through probationary services, reducing recidivism
• EM technology innovator SuperCom Ltd. has secured a growing number of probationary services clients in Europe as well as in the United States, adding over $11 million in orders since the beginning of the year
• SuperCom announced another $2.6 million in European EM orders this month

The Confederation of European Probation, an organization that promotes pan-European cooperation for the social inclusion of offenders through a variety of community sanctions, reports high-tech electronic monitoring services are booming throughout Europe as a security solution benefitting both the offenders and the community.

“Probation services in almost all Western European countries are experimenting with it, while probation services in most Eastern European countries are considering pilots,” the CEP states (https://ibn.fm/FMnzv).

Israel-headquartered identification security solutions developer SuperCom (NASDAQ: SPCB) is marketing its electronic monitoring (“EM”) platform as a cutting-edge solution that is ahead of the curve in what is still a niche market. Its client list in Europe and the United States is continuing to grow.

“We are delighted to continue strengthening our collaboration with European governments,” SuperCom President and CEO Ordan Trabelsi stated earlier this month in announcing a new $2.6 million in orders from the old-world continent (https://ibn.fm/8JvoC). “It highlights our leadership in the electronic monitoring sector and our ability to consistently meet our clients’ evolving needs. We remain committed to ensuring successful project execution and fostering lasting partnerships with governments worldwide.”

SuperCom’s expansion of contracts utilizing its end-to-end GPS tracking, communication, monitoring technologies, and real-time tracking and reporting software platform includes over $11 million dollars in new orders reported since the beginning of the year from European clients on a recurring revenue basis.

“These repeat orders underscore our customers’ confidence in SuperCom’s cutting-edge technology and our unwavering commitment to improving public safety,” Trabelsi stated.

The company’s technology was specifically designed to meet the needs of correctional facilities and law enforcement agencies seeking alternatives to incarceration, but its potential application is much wider, such as the potential for tracking Alzheimer’s patients prone to wander or vulnerable patients with no in-residence caregiver.

Reaching even further, the European Union funded a pilot project in 2022 for the use of remote EM systems on processing vessels for bluefin tuna to help combat illegal bluefin tuna markets in Europe (https://ibn.fm/ILK5o). Still, SuperCom sees the strength of the company’s position in concentrating on justice systems’ EM needs.

“We focus at one market at a time because we believe the margins are the best and the penetration is the strongest when you do it that way,” Trabelsi said during an interview with the Your Advantage Play podcast in July (https://ibn.fm/RvIhs). “So we focus on this market — there’s only 10 players, we have a great track record, (and) we’re able to win more and more projects rather than spread it out thin to many different industries with the same technology.”

“So once we’ve reached significant size … then we can start splashing over into other industries that will use the exact same technology,” he said. “Our technology, which of course is something that is doing well tracking offenders, we hope will be considered to do well also to track (vulnerable) patients, and animals, and children.”

• Lexaria, a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is reporting on its eight-week body weight results from its WEIGHT-A24-1 ongoing animal study
• The study was made up of three main groups of formulations: DehydraTECH-processed CBD; semaglutide (including “Rybelsus(R)”) and liraglutide
• The DehydraTECH-CBD and DehydraTECH-liraglutide both outperformed Rybelsus(R), which was a surprise outcome. DehydraTECH-liraglutide posted a weight reduction of 4.74%, the most significant in the study
• For Lexaria, this continued outperformance of DehydraTECH-liraglutide is of particular interest, particularly since many third-party studies have shown semaglutide to be more than twice as effective as liraglutide in promoting weight loss
• As the study progresses, Lexaria’s management is optimistic that it will realize positive and ground-breaking results that will demonstrate the superiority and potential of its technology

Lexaria (NASDAQ: LEXX), a global innovator in drug delivery platforms, is reporting on its eight-week body weight results from its WEIGHT-A24-1 ongoing animal study. This study explores Lexaria’s patented technology, DehydraTECH(TM), and its potential in addressing diabetes and weight loss. More importantly, it looks to establish whether DehdyraTECH processing results in higher brain absorption than non-DehydraTECH arms, with a focus on glucagon-like peptide 1 (“GLP-1”) drugs, liraglutide and semaglutide (https://ibn.fm/xSZTO).

This part of the study was comprised of eight different formulation arms. Arms A through D used different DehydraTECH-CBD compositions, with arms E and F using DehydratTECH-processed Rybelsus, and arms G and H using pure GLP-1 drugs (semaglutide and liraglutide, respectively) processed with DehydraTECH. At the eight-week mark, the liraglutide arm H posted a weight reduction of 4.74%, the most significant weight reduction from the entire study. Equally interesting, two of the DehydraTECH-CBD compositions also led to weight reductions and also outperformed both Rybelsus(R) and pure semaglutide (https://ibn.fm/xSZTO).

For Lexaria, this continued outperformance of DehydraTECH-liraglutide and DehydraTECH-CBD is of particular interest. Lexaria fully owns DehydraTECH-CBD, while liraglutide has become available in generic version. This presents a massive opportunity for Lexaria and its goal of offering a potential treatment option for diabetes and weight loss.

The global diabetes drugs market in 2023 was valued at $79.925 billion. By 2032, it is projected to hit $153.98 billion in value, representing a CAGR of 7% over the forecast period (2024-2032) (https://ibn.fm/8baKb). Lexaria looks to carve out a decent market share from this growth with its DehydraTECH technology, primarily by offering a viable oral treatment alternative to what is currently in the market. Its DehydraTECH technology has proven itself many times to improve drug delivery, and it has also done so in its ongoing studies. The company looks to build on this, ultimately offering an oral alternative to diabetes treatment.

As the study progresses, Lexaria’s management is optimistic that it will realize positive and ground-breaking results that will demonstrate the superiority and potential of its technology. They are also confident that results from the study will inch the company closer to carving out a market share in the diabetes and obesity treatment market, even as it continues to create value for its shareholders.

• An estimated 50% of all cars sold globally will be EVs by 2035, predicts the International Energy Agency’s Global EV Outlook.
• Fathom Nickel reports that the geochemical footprint of its Gochager Lake deposit has been extended by up to four kilometers.
• Company “ecstatic” with the results from soil and rock geochemistry program, says CEO.

Despite headlines touting a slowing electric vehicle market, Forbes reports that actual data shows increasing sales, with projections indicating almost one-half of all cars sold in by 2035 will be EVs (https://ibn.fm/CuHiK). Those numbers are good news for Fathom Nickel (CSE: FNI) (FSE: 6Q5) (OTCQB: FNICF), a company focused on exploring high-grade nickel sulfide discoveries for use in the global EV market, and a company that recently announced significant expansions to its historic nickel-copper-cobalt-producing (“Ni-Cu-Co”) Gochager Lake Property (https://ibn.fm/0uQS9).

“Data from the International Energy Agency’s Global EV Outlook 2024 makes vibes-based reporting on the demise of EV sales look silly,” the Forbes article states. “Global EV sales could hit 17 million in 2024, meaning more than one in five cars sold worldwide will be electric. Surging demand for clean, cheap EVs across the rest of this decade will completely change the global auto industry. By 2035, IEA projects 50% of all cars sold globally will be EVs, cutting oil demand between 6–10 million barrels per day, equivalent to the current amount used for road transportation in the U.S. . . .

“This is huge news for cutting consumer costs, creating new jobs and investment, and cleaning up our air,” the article continued. “Everyone, everywhere wants to save money and breathe cleaner air. Soon everyone, everywhere will soon have the choice to make their next car a clean, cheap EV.”

Furthermore, the article pointed out, “IEA’s annual Global EV Outlook identifies and assesses recent developments in global electric mobility. And IEA is considered the world’s leading authority on all energy trends, meaning this forecast isn’t hype – its data driven.”

Fathom Nickel is also relying on actual data with the recent expansion of its 22,000-plus-hectare Gochager Lake Property. The company recently released results from its “extremely successful” June soil and rock geochemistry program, which clearly demonstrate that the geochemical footprint of the Gochager Lake deposit has been extended by up to four kilometers along trend, approximately two kilometers in both the northeast and southwest directions.

“The company is ecstatic with the results from this soil and rock geochemistry program,” said Fathom Nickel CEO and VP of exploration Ian Fraser. “Through our drilling at the historic Gochager Lake deposit over the course of the last 18 months, we have developed a clear understanding of the deposit’s geochemical footprint. The combination of highly anomalous Ni-Cu-Co + chrome (“Cr”) and magnesium (“Mg”) in-soil, rock geochemistry results generated by pXRF, and rock assay data has expanded the Gochager Lake deposit geochemical footprint dramatically — to an area that now measures, incredibly, some 1.7 square kilometers.

“That’s 25 times larger than the area of the historic Gochager Lake deposit,” Fraser continued. “In addition, we have identified other separate, very prominent Ni-Cu-Co + Cr-Mg in-soil anomalies outside of this 1.7 square kilometer footprint area. Underlaying this geochemical footprint is a very distinct MAG feature recognized through the ongoing interpretation of the 2008 VTEM survey. We are very confident that our exacting exploration approach will continue to successfully expand the historic Gochager Lake deposit along strike and to depth, in terms of both grade and tonnage. We are also very confident of significant additional discoveries both within the now-expanded footprint, and also the greater Gochager Lake property. Based on continuing results, there is clear and compelling potential for a major discovery to be had here.”

Fathom is an exploration company that is targeting nickel-copper-cobalt magmatic sulfide discoveries to support the rapidly growing global electric vehicle market and to secure the supply of North American critical minerals. The company now has a portfolio of three high-quality exploration projects located in the prolific Trans Hudson Corridor in Saskatchewan: 1) the Albert Lake Project, a 90,000-plus hectare project that was host to the historic and past-producing Rottenstone Mine; 2) the 22,000-plus hectare Gochager Lake Project that is host to a historic, NI43-101 noncompliant open pit resource consisting of 4.3M tons at 0.295% Ni and 0.081% Cu3; and 3) the 10,000-plus hectare Friesen Lake Project located 40 kilometers southwest of the historic Rottenstone Mine and 30 kilometers northwest of the historic Gochager Lake deposit.

• Gold may be at the front edge of a new commodity supercycle.
• Dynasty Gold is conducting a low-cost drill program at an all-in cost of $250 per meter, with shallow drill holes and extremely high-grade (averaging 8.04 g/t) for an open pit.
• The Thundercloud property boasts access to excellent infrastructure, positioning it as a turnkey operation.
• Dynasty Gold is led by a team of accomplished geologists with a track record for discoveries, such as a former chief geologist for Newcrest Mining; a member of its board was inducted to the Mining Hall of Fame.
• In August 2024, the company completed Phase 1 of its 2024 Drill Program, consisting of 11 holes totaling 2,198 meters at its Thundercloud property in Ontario.
• An internally generated block model has increased the resource from 187K oz to 232K oz gold at 8.04 g/t measured and indicated through two short years of drilling; the resource is 439,000 oz at 2.14 g/t – amazing results by all measures.
• Drilling continues in September.
• Dynasty maintains 100% ownership of another gold project in the Midas gold camp in Nevada.
• The company is well-funded, with Rob McEwen as its largest shareholder.
• Dynasty is unique in the industry with its miniscule market cap buoyed by the huge potential of its portfolio.

Dynasty Gold (TSX.V: DYG) (OTC: DGDCF) is rapidly emerging as a notable player in the gold sector. With its impressive portfolio of high-potential projects and recent drilling results, Dynasty Gold is capturing the attention of investors and industry analysts alike. As the company continues to advance its exploration efforts, the potential for substantial gains becomes increasingly evident.

Many respected analysts agree that gold is in the early stages of a new commodities supercycle, where multiple forces like inflation, infrastructure spending and global demand are driving the price surge. The question is, “how to profit from it.”

Dynasty Gold’s recent drilling campaign at its flagship Thundercloud project in Ontario, Canada, has delivered results that are likely to reshape expectations and could significantly impact the company’s fortunes. The latest drilling assays from the project reveal high-grade gold mineralization, confirming the project’s potential for substantial resource development.

With high-quality North American assets, renowned leadership and a miniscule market cap, Dynasty Gold looks perfectly positioned to capitalize on any potential updraft in prices and potentially deliver outsized returns. In fact, if the next batch of drill holes (expected within weeks) is successful in expanding the economics of the resource, DYG could easily outperform the market and lead the pack to the upside.

There are only about 61 million Dynasty shares issued and outstanding, with roughly 40% owned by insiders and long-term shareholders. It’s important to note that Rob McEwen owns 9.7%. A mining legend, McEwen founded Goldcorp and increased the company’s market cap 160X – from $50M to over $8B. He must see value in Dynasty Gold, too. Around 50% of outstanding shares are held by retail investors, and any positive news on top of surging global demand could catapult the stock.

High-Grade Deposits, 100% Owned

The Thundercloud Property

The Thundercloud property is situated in the prolific Archean Manitou-Stormy Lakes greenstone belt in Western Ontario, which has a geological setting similar to the Abitibi belt but is much less thoroughly explored. The region contains numerous gold showings, along with several deposits and historic producers. Initial results suggest excellent potential for bulk-tonnage orogenic gold mineralization, with the possibility of high-grade mineralization. In recent years, nearly 30 million ounces of gold have been discovered in the area.

Dynasty Gold’s Thundercloud project is strategically located within one of Canada’s most prodigious gold-producing regions. Ontario is renowned for its rich mineral deposits and supportive mining infrastructure, providing a favorable environment for exploration and development. The Thundercloud property covers approximately 5,560 acres and is located 47 kilometers southeast of Dryden, Ontario. It is accessible via the Trans-Canada Highway (Hwy 17). Dryden, a resource-based town, offers essential infrastructure for mining operations.

Dynasty recently completed Phase 1 of its 2024 Drill Program at its Thundercloud property, announcing results in an August press release.

Ivy Chong, President and CEO, commented, “Dynasty completed Phase 1 of the 4,000 meters planned drilling, consisting of 11 holes for a total of 2,198 meters. The eight holes within the Pelham Zone all intersected intervals from 10+ to 70 meters of strong pyrite veinlets and disseminations similar to that associated with high-grade mineralization in the previous two years of grades up to 8.4 g/t gold over 73.5m including 151.7 g/t gold over 3.0m. We look forward to receiving the assay results from Phase 1 drilling within the next several weeks and will re-commence drilling in early September, once these results have been analyzed and an additional 10 or more drill holes sited.”

The recent drilling results at Thundercloud have substantial implications for the project’s future. High-grade gold intercepts are indicative of a robust mineralized system, which could lead to a significant increase in the project’s resource estimate. Despite this high-grade, the company’s drill holes are comparatively shallow (less than 250 meters in length). Many similar projects are required to drill as deep as 700+ meters to obtain grades similar to Dynasty’s recent results. This, in turn, enhances the project’s attractiveness to major mining companies and institutional investors.

The impressive drilling results from Dynasty’s Canadian project will be followed by more drilling with more news expected in the next few weeks. Roughly 90% of the project has thus far seen limited drilling and therefore represents untested potential. Positive assay results often generate increased interest and confidence as the market reacts to the potential for significant resource discoveries.

The Golden Repeat Property

Located on the north slope of the Midas Trough, along the Carlin Trend within the Northern Nevada Rift, the Golden Repeat gold property comprises 49 contiguous mining claims totaling approximately 968 acres. These claims share geological similarities with gold properties in the well-known Midas Gold Camp.

Hecla Mining Company’s Midas Mine is located 18 kilometers east of the property, with other major Carlin-style gold mines, including Nevada Gold Ventures LLC’s Getchell-Twin Creeks-Turquoise Ridge mines (15 kilometers southwest) and its Goldstrike Mine complex (50 kilometers southeast) nearby.

The property is easily accessible from Interstate 80, with excellent local mining infrastructure. Gold Fields and Romarco Minerals briefly drilled the property in the 1990s, but a large portion remains unexplored.

Market Opportunity

In 2023, the World Gold Council estimated the physical financial gold market – comprising bars, coins, gold ETFs, and central bank reserves – was valued at nearly $5 trillion.

This historical scarcity and relatively slow rate of new production, compared to other commodities, are key reasons gold has retained its value for millennia. In September 2024, the spot price of gold was quoted at just over $2,497 per ounce.

Dynasty Gold’s strategic focus on expanding its resource base and advancing its exploration efforts positions it well for future success. The company’s ongoing drilling programs are designed to further delineate and expand the high-grade zones identified, which could lead to a substantial resource upgrade and increased project valuation.

Additionally, the potential for resource expansion and the attractiveness of Dynasty Gold’s project in a top-tier mining jurisdiction such as Ontario could attract interest from strategic partners or acquisition targets. Options include both smaller scale high-grade production in the near term or bulk tonnage production in the years ahead. Such developments would provide additional opportunities for capital infusion and project acceleration, further supporting a positive trajectory for the stock price.

Management Team

Ivy Chong has served as CEO of Dynasty Gold since 2008. With over two decades of experience in the mining and oil & gas industries, she has negotiated several option and joint venture agreements with major companies such as Teck, AngloGold Ashanti, Azimut, and Avocet Mining. She has assisted numerous companies with IPOs and raised capital for resource firms across Asia, Europe, and North America. Before entering the resource industry, she worked at the Hong Kong Stock Exchange and Deloitte and Touche LLP.

Larry Kornze, VP of Exploration and Director at Dynasty Gold, brings over 30 years of international gold exploration experience to the company. He is credited with discovering Barrick’s 40-million-ounce gold deposit at the Betze Mine on the Carlin Trend in Nevada during the late 1980s. Kornze was also involved in the discovery of other significant deposits in Nevada, including Miekle, Deepstar, Screamer, and Rodeo. He has held positions with Newmont and Getty Mining in North America and serves on the boards of several public gold exploration companies.

The argument for investing in gold juniors has never been more compelling, for a number of reasons:

• Serious economic pressures continue to push gold prices to historically unprecedented levels, with the spot price up roughly two-fold from the $1500 range that held for nearly a decade
• Although there is often a delay between the price of metals and the price in associated stocks, gold juniors are expected to see, or are already seeing, a rise in earnings and free cashflow. A trend further accelerated by a looming dearth of new, logistically viable discoveries sufficient to meet forward demand for the yellow metal
• AI technology is beginning to revolutionize project site evaluation and the identification of high priority drill targets, making junior resource sector companies able to punch far above their own weight, with new and highly accurate analytical tools
• With the overall stock market facing increasingly uncertain prospects, the upward potential of juniors looks even more attractive and speculative retail investor’s ability to sort the wheat from the chaff in the gold juniors could be just the ticket to reaping sizeable long-term returns

The trick, of course, is carefully vetting individual plays to determine if they have the right mix of core elements needed to stand out from the competition and also be truly attractive to sector heavyweights. The reason that Canada’s Emperor Metals (OTCQB: EMAUF) (CSE: AUOZ) (FRA: 9NH) is seen as being in one of the strongest positions for a rising gold junior comes largely, though not exclusively, from the specifics behind the company’s flagship Duquesne West Gold project, located in Rouyn-Noranda, Québec. Just as there are clear reasons for gold juniors to rise on investor radars, there are reasons for the significant edge given to Emperor.

• First of all, the Duquesne project is located in the heart of the Abitibi Greenstone belt of Rouyn-Noranda, Quebec (one of the most prolific and productive gold mining districts). A Tier 1 mining district with abundant historic as well as contemporary mining, Abitibi is home to some seriously impressive infrastructural development, with sector majors dotting the map all around Duquesne West studded with mines from the likes of Newmont (NYSE: NEM) and Agnico Eagle (NYSE: AEM) to name a few.
• 2011 historical inferred mineral resource estimate points to 727,000 ounces of high-grade gold at 5.42 g/t, and a robust average thickness of 5.71 meters in 4.171 million tonnes, based on a 3 g/t cutoff grade and 2.5 m minimum thickness.
• The new open pit model shows multi-million oz of gold potential on top of the existing high-grade underground gold resource, granting Emperor Metals the enviable opportunity for multiple production scenarios.
• Positive maiden 2023 drill results show some high-grade intercepts that nicely characterize the deposit and its potential:
  • 10.8 m of 15.8 g/t Au
  • 11.7 m of 5.63 g/t Au
  • 10.65 m of 3.97 g/t Au
  • 13.2 m of 3.8 g/t Au
  • 3.65 m of 6.25 g/t Au
  • 7.2 m of 2.8 g/t Au
• A fully funded drill program – 8.000 m drilling/assaying and 8,000 m of historical core assaying started May 2024, focused on the new open pit model:

Note: 16,000 m of drilling assays are expected soon. A new updated Mineral Resource Estimate (“MRE”) is expected Q1, 2025 that could be transformative. Emperor is expecting to lower historic cutoff grade for this new MRE because gold is up 150% since the historic 2011 MRE, and adding additional resources from the 2023 and 2024 drilling.

• Active use of AI and Machine Learning technology to expedite data analysis and optimize resource allocation (already used to create the first 3D and geological models in record time, identifying high priority drill targets).

Perhaps the most significant indicator in all of this is the recent C$1M investment made by Rob McEwen, considered a mining luminary.

Finally, it should be noted that the company is evaluating additional projects and M&A opportunities.

All of these things taken together, Emperor Metals can be fairly viewed as a substantial opportunity in an already promising sector.

NOTE TO INVESTORS: The latest news and updates relating to EMAUF are available in the company’s newsroom at https://ibn.fm/EMAUF

• IEA forecasts global increase in gas demand.
• Trillion Energy is reporting August production numbers that show robust performance, significant gas revenue.
• Trillion Energy’s growth represents company’s strengthening foothold in the European energy market.

As the International Energy Association (“IEA”) predicts a global increase in demand for gas (https://ibn.fm/L7Xue), Trillion Energy International (CSE: TCF) (OTCQB: TRLEF), a company focused on oil and natural gas production for Europe and Türkiye, is releasing its August production update for its oil and gas fields. The report indicates the company’s expectations of “robust performance and strategic developments” along with “significant gas revenue growth” (https://ibn.fm/mwhYt).

“Natural gas markets moved to more pronounced growth in the first half of 2024, with initial estimates indicating that global gas demand increased at a rate well above its historical average during this period,” stated the IEA’s Q3 2024 gas market report. The report noted that demand growth, which is primarily supported by higher gas use in industry, is fragile, citing geopolitical tensions causing price volatility.

“Natural gas prices increased across all key markets in the second quarter of 2024, reflecting tighter market fundamentals,” the report continued. “For the full year of 2024, natural gas demand is forecast to increase by 2.5% in 2024, primarily driven by fast-growing Asian markets.

“Geopolitical instability represents the greatest risk to the short-term outlook. LNG trade has practically halted across the Red Sea since the start of the year, while Russia is increasingly targeting energy infrastructure in Ukraine, including underground gas storage facilities. In this context, security of supply for natural gas remains a key aspect of energy policy making and the risks related to our outlook highlight the need to strengthen international co-operation, including in assessing and implementing flexibility options along gas and LNG value chains.”

Trillion Energy’s update reflects the company’s performance in August. Specifically, the report noted that during the month, “the 100% gas production from SASB was about 133.13 MMcf giving a gross total of $1,456,400 and a Trillion 49% value of $713,640 with a realized natural gas price of about $10.94. Trillion’s gross oil revenue from Cendere is $342,700. Trillion’s total gross production revenue for August is $1,056,340.” (Note: All numbers are in U.S. dollars.)

In addition, the report noted that gas revenue from SASB is 95% from Guluc-2 and South Akcakoca-2, which are both stabilized, and 5% from West Akcakoca-1, which has not stabilized and produces intermittently. SASB’s total average production for August was 4.6 MMcf/d while Akcakoca-3 well head pressure (“WHP”) continues to increase, currently reaching 583 psi compared to the initial WHP of 100 psi; the company noted that the well will soon be opened for a flow test.

Trillion Energy’s August numbers indicate the company’s strengthening foothold in the European energy market. “With the SASB gas field contributing significantly to revenue, Trillion is poised for future growth as it explores production optimization techniques,” the company stated. The company also noted that the potential installation of velocity string in the wells should increase gas production significantly.

“Trillion’s August gross revenue of $1.46 million illustrates the future potential of increasing the monthly revenue once we have more than just two gas wells producing,” said Trillion Energy CEO Arthur Halleran. “The VS (2-3/8-inch production tubing) installation in all 6 wells will substantially increase the gas production at SASB. The 10 legacy wells at SASB between 2007 and 2021 produced a total of 42.19 Bcf of gas utilizing 2-3/8-inch production tubing, about 4.2 Bcf/well. We can expect the same with our wells once we put in the 2-3/8-inch. Even with the 4-½-inch production tubing, we have produced 2.71 Bcf of gas from our 2022–2023 wells. Our gas price is $10.94/mcf whereas the Henry Hub Gas spot price is $1.91.”

Trillion Energy is focused on oil and natural gas production for Europe and Türkiye with natural gas assets in Türkiye. The company is 49% owner of the SASB natural gas field, a Black Sea natural gas development, and has a 19.6% (except three wells with 9.8%) interest in the Cendere oil field. The company also has a 50% interest in three oil exploration blocks in southeast Türkiye.
