Drilling With a $3.5B Discovery Partner in Its Corner (Ad)

A small-cap explorer is about to drill for high-grade gold in a region known for multi-million-ounce discoveries and billion-dollar takeouts. Its $3.5B discovery partner has already spent over $2.5M prepping the targets, which include historical grades up to 83.2 g/t gold and 30% zinc. And with just a $10M market cap and a float tightly held by institutions and insiders, this junior is positioned for outsized upside on a discovery.
