Fair Value on Metals Explorer Increased by Research Firm

Source: Sid Rajeev 11/12/2024

It is expected that this company significantly will expand the existing resource at its gold-silver project in Nevada, noted a Fundamental Research Corp. report.

Western Exploration Inc. (WEX:TSX.V; WEXPF:OTC) had its fair value increased by Fundamental Research Corp. (FRC) to CA$2.67 per share from CA$2.07 on anticipation of a material resource expansion at the Aura gold-silver project in Nevada, FRC Head of Research Sid Rajeev reported in an Oct. 31 research note.

"[The company] has made notable strides at its Aura gold-silver project, showcasing promising drill results, and improved recoveries," Rajeev wrote. "With mergers and acquisitions (M&A) activity on the rise, we believe Western Exploration Inc. is emerging as a strong acquisition target."

At the time of the report, the explorer was priced at CA$1.24 per share. As such, the new fair value implies a potential return for investors of 115%.

Western Exploration remains a Buy.

Current Project Highlights

Rajeev provided a current overview of the Aura project, noting the company has made significant progress there since FRC's last report, in January.

This Nevada property hosts sediment-hosted, Carlin-style gold deposits. Three have been identified there to date: Doby George, Gravel Creek, and Wood Gulch.

Doby George hosts near-surface, high-grade oxide gold, and mineralization amenable to heap-leach processing, thereby having the potential for relatively low capex and opex. Recent metallurgical heap-leach tests at Doby George yielded a higher gold recovery rate of 72%, up from 69%. This is on the higher end of recoveries for a typical open-pit mine.

Gravel Creek, in contrast, hosts underground, high-grade sulfide gold mineralization. Initial results from an ongoing resource expansion drill program there have been "highly promising," wrote Rajeev. Intercepts have returned unusually high grades, up to 75 grams per ton (75 g/t) gold and 3,080 g/t silver. Assay results from drill hole WGC459 indicate that high-grade mineralization extends at least 80 meters north of the Discovery zone. Preliminary metallurgical test results from Gravel Creek showed "impressive recoveries of 95%" toward the upper end of the usual range for an underground operation.

Resource Expansion Potential

The current aggregated resource of all three deposits is 652,000 ounces of gold equivalent (652 Koz of Au eq) in the Indicated category and 665 Koz Au eq in the Inferred category.

"We believe there is potential for resource expansion as the deposits remain open in multiple directions," Rajeev wrote. He noted which areas remain prospective, and they are Wood Gulch, Gravel Creek, The Gap (the undrilled area between them), the Jarbidge Hanging Wall (without a resource), and the Northeast Extension (undrilled).

Catalysts To Watch For

Rajeev noted future events that could boost Western Exploration's share price. Results of ongoing drilling at Aura is one. Next year, an update to the Gravel Creek and Doby George resource is expected in H1/25. A preliminary feasibility study for Doby George is slated to follow in Q4/25.

Another catalyst is the gold sector, the outlook for which is favorable. M&A activity has picked up as majors are looking for projects to boost their production profile. The trend is positive for this company advancing its precious metals project.

"We maintain a positive outlook on gold in light of the anticipated rate cuts by the U.S. Federal Reserve and elevated geopolitical tensions," the analyst wrote. "We see [Western Exploration] as a prime acquisition target."

M4 Mac mini review: The first redesign in years hides incredible computing power

Apple's long-overdue overhaul of the Mac mini shrinks an already great package even more, yet it still punches far above its weight class.


M4 Mac mini

I've owned a Mac mini since the very first G4 model. In an era of bulky towers and a G4 Cube just years before that impressed but didn't deliver, the little box brought Apple power to a small desktop package, and I was enthused.

And since then, I've had one in service 24/7 constantly. Even now with a Mac Studio on my desk, there's one upstairs in use with a family member, one in the other room silently humming away acting as my network attached storage and test platform, and a few more on my shelf that I've hoarded over the years, just waiting for an application.

Law amended to increase parental leave and mandatory paternity leave

SINGAPORE — A law was amended on Wednesday (Nov 13) to implement more government-paid parental leave and mandatory paternity leave, which had been announced earlier in August. Under the amendments to the Child Development Co-Savings Act, parents-to-be will get another 10 weeks of shared leave on top of their current leave entitlement, bringing the total amount of government-paid parental leave to 30 weeks by April 1, 2026. From April 1, 2025, eligible fathers of Singaporean children will also be entitled to four weeks of mandatory government-paid paternity leave.  The new shared parental leave scheme will be rolled out in two phases, starting with six weeks from April 1, 2025, and increasing to 10 weeks from April 1, 2026. This shared leave is to be taken within 12 months of the child's birth, and employees must inform employers at least four weeks before going on leave in a continuous block.
