Banyan Gold (BYN.V) 134.24 million shares outstanding $34.23M market cap based on its recent close at $0.255 Between its two Yukon based projects—AurMac and Hyland—the company holds over 1.4 million ounces in the Indicated […]

Banyan (BYN.V) to drill AurMac, Cartier (ECR.V) tags more high-grade Au, Pure Gold (PGM.V) launches 30k meter drilling campaign, Strategic (SMD.V) goes hard at Mt. Hinton
Gold continues to consolidate gains registered after a sharp push higher from its March 16 ‘crash day’ lows. We’re going into our third month of sideways chop. No one knows for sure how this sideways channel will resolve itself, but without a doubt, if (when) gold successfully challenges $1,800 again, it’ll be watched by a […]

Banyan (BYN.V) drops a 43-101, White Gold (WGO.V) tables 2020 exp plans, Pure Gold (PGM.V) bags a billionaire, Cartier (ECR.V) tags high-grade Au
Is it too early to declare Game-On for the junior exploration arena? The recent across-the-board price action looks and feels right. In many cases, good news is greeted with positive market depth. And the market appears to have more than lint lining its pockets. Earlier last week I came across a chart supporting the notion […]

Banyan Gold (BYN.V) – resource expansion and discovery potential in the Yukon
In an earlier offering, we talked about peak gold, lean project pipelines and how that is forcing producing companies to hunt: Fact: every day a Gold Producer digs ore out of the ground—every day they’re in business—their precious metal inventory shrinks. Whether it’s a Senior, a Mid-tier, or a Small Producer, the key to long-term […]

A Junior Sector Roundup plus an update on Forum Energy Metals (FMC.V)
The bear market in junior (exploration) equities has become so entrenched, so protracted that many are questioning whether we’ll ever see a return to normal valuations, let alone a raging bull market. But at the risk of coming off as a lone voice in the wilderness, I’m confident we’ll see a meaningful turn in the […]

A mid-May Highballer Roundup featuring Patriot (PMET.V), Prime (PRYM.V), i-80 (IAU.TO), Teuton (TUO.V), Goldseek (GSK.C), Forum (FMC.V), HighGold (HIGH.V), Arizona Metals (AMC.TO) and others
If you’re inclined to wager bets in this high-risk/high-reward arena, I don’t need to tell you how compelling the current set-up is for medium to long-term (high-quality) exploration and development plays. And the potential is not just in gold and silver—it runs the (metals) gamut. It’s fair to say that, as a society, we’ve been […]

A Nov. 8 Highballer report updating the companies on our list PLUS a few new names that may represent good value at this juncture
Just as Gold appeared to be in the process of breaking major support last week, it staged a dramatic reversal after tagging a fresh 52-week low. On the weekly chart, it staged an outside reversal (taking out the previous week’s low and closing above the previous week’s high). Interesting price action. As has been the […]

A Highballer update for August 2, 2022 – Is It Go Time?
The last few weeks have been hectic. In the wake of last week’s .75% rate hike, gold formed a higher low on the charts. But will it stick? If the Fed’s bullying tactics towards the inflationary spiral have run their course—if they’ve exacted enough shock value via these high-handed three-quarter-point rate hikes—it could be game […]

They were also adding a 7th rig to their 15,000-metre Phase-1 drill campaign. Los Reyes is a district scale low sulphidation epithermal gold-silver project located in a […]

An excerpt… What’s with the name “Highballer”? It was in the treeplanting sector of British Columbia (and Alberta) that Nolan developed an obsessive stop-at-nothing […]
