VANCOUVER, BC, Aug. 5, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Equity Insider News Commentary – The upward momentum for gold price projects continues, as the precious metal opened the week above $3,400 after a recent labor data revision. Analysts continue to adjust their gold price forecasts, with the next three months looking to hit $3,500, with Fidelity projecting a potential $4,000 per ounce price by year-end. And it's not just the bullion dealers that stand to benefit, as gold mining majors are already publicly stating they expect bumper profits as gold's prices and volumes surge. In response, gold miners as a group are leading in gains on spot price on the weak US jobs data, leaving an opportunity for retail investors in the market to take a better look at miners making moves as of late, such as RUA GOLD Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF), Dundee Precious Metals (TSX: DPM) (OTCPK: DPMLF), Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE-American: GORO), Nova Minerals Limited (NASDAQ: NVA), and Cerrado Gold Inc. (TSXV: CERT) (OTCQX: CRDOF).

According to a recent report from Reuters, the TSX is currently approaching its own recent record high, as gold mining shares continue to climb. As gold flirts with all-time highs and silver rips through multi-year resistance, investors are beginning to rotate into junior miners as the next logical phase of the precious metals bull run.

RUA GOLD Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF) just announced a major expansion to its Reefton drill campaign, mobilizing a third rig and targeting over 4,000 metres of new drilling at Auld Creek to grow the gold-antimony resource above 300,000 ounces by year-end. The company is also initiating deeper drilling at Cumberland and advancing Alexander River as a third priority asset—all part of a 12-month strategy aimed at fast-tracking permitting and transitioning from explorer to developer.

"We closed Q2 2025 with $14 million in the treasury, placing us in a strong position to execute on our aggressive exploration plan in New Zealand," said Robert Eckford, CEO of RUA GOLD. "As our gold-antimony resource continues to grow rapidly—and with antimony at the top of every nation's critical minerals list—the significance of this expansion is substantial."

The Reefton Goldfield is a historically prolific district that produced more than 2 million ounces at grades up to 50 g/t. RUA GOLD now controls 120,000 hectares (roughly 95%) in the area and has confirmed multiple stacked mineralized shoots at Auld Creek, including a standout intercept of 2.1 m at 64 g/t AuEq (5.5 g/t gold and 13.1% antimony). New modeling work is underway ahead of a resource update, while two rigs continue testing depth and lateral continuity.

Antimony continues to be a major tailwind for the company's positioning, with prices surging past US$50,000 per tonne in 2025 following China's export restrictions. New Zealand has formally designated it as a critical mineral, adding further significance to RUA GOLD's dual-commodity profile at Auld Creek. Surface samples have returned over 40% Sb, and several drill holes exceed 8%—grades rarely seen this early in a project's development cycle.

Three kilometres south, RUA GOLD has put a third drill rig to work at Cumberland, following up on strong recent hits such as 1 m at 26.9 g/t, and earlier assays of 62.2 g/t and 1 m at 1,911 g/t within the Gallant vein system. This AI-generated target has confirmed shallow continuity along a 600 m strike, with additional step-outs in motion across a 2.5 km corridor.

Meanwhile, at Alexander River, modeling is underway to build on a 130,000 oz inferred resource grading 4.1 g/t. The zone hosts 1.2 km of outcropping mineralization and returned historical production of 41,000 oz at 26 g/t before World War II halted mining. Targets at Caledonia and other regional zones are also in development.

On the North Island, drill access applications have now been submitted for RUA's Glamorgan project in the Hauraki Goldfield—home to the 10 Moz Martha mine. Glamorgan's 4 km gold-arsenic anomaly has been refined using CSAMT surveys and VRIFY's DORA AI engine, with drilling expected to begin in Q4.

"Over the past month, our Board and Management team have been focused on shaping the Company's strategy to transition us from an explorer to a developer," added Eckford. "With New Zealand's highly supportive permitting regime, our goal is to rapidly build ounces on our balance sheet and enter the 'Fast Track Permitting Process' in 2026."

With a disciplined burn rate, $14 million in cash, and a leadership team behind US$11 billion in prior exits, RUA GOLD is well-positioned to deliver meaningful discovery growth and advance permitting across both islands. The current multi-rig program aims to stack near-surface ounces at scale—across gold, antimony, and future targets shaped by AI and legacy-grade geology.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market include:

Dundee Precious Metals (TSX: DPM) (OTCPK: DPMLF) recently reported record free cash flow of US$85.7 million and adjusted net earnings of US$51.5 million for Q2 2025, driven by strong production at both the Chelopech and Ada Tepe mines.

"We continue to consistently deliver robust free cash flow, generating a record $174 million year-to-date, further strengthening our financial capacity to fund growth," said David Rae, President and CEO of Dundee. "At the same time, our investors are benefiting from our low-cost, high-margin gold production as we continue to return capital to shareholders, demonstrated by the repurchase of a record 10 million shares during the first half of the year.

 The company sold 72,700 ounces of gold and 6.9 million pounds of copper during the quarter, while also advancing its Loma Larga permitting process in Ecuador. With a debt-free balance sheet and over US$500 million in liquidity, Dundee also reaffirmed its 2025 production guidance and declared a quarterly dividend of US$0.05 per share.

Gold Resource Corporation (NYSE-American: GORO) recently announced improved operational metrics and new high-grade drill results from its Don David Gold Mine in Oaxaca, Mexico. Notable intercepts include 7.3 g/t gold and 280 g/t silver over 5.2 metres in the Switchback vein, and 9.2 g/t gold over 1.9 metres in the Arista vein system.

"Consistent high-grade drill intercepts, along with an improved understanding of the geology, have allowed us to build more confidence in the mine plan of the Three Sisters system and reinforcing its role as a key contributor to future mine production," said Allen Palmiere, President and CEO of GORO. "In addition, we are excited about the potential benefits from bringing in an experienced mining contractor along with their new equipment, while changing out some of our old fleet with good used equipment to improve our efficiencies and returns. We remain focused on integrating the Three Sisters system into our short-term mine plan while continuing to advance exploration efforts aimed at driving sustainable growth and maximizing shareholder value."

The company reduced all-in sustaining costs by 9% quarter-over-quarter and reported strong underground development progress across multiple zones.

Nova Minerals Limited (NASDAQ: NVA) has released new metallurgical test results from its RPM deposit at the Estelle Gold Project, showing strong recoveries using a combined flowsheet approach. Ore sorting achieved a 4.33x grade increase—from 1.32 g/t to 5.72 g/t—in a single pass, while heap leach tests on lower-grade material delivered gold recoveries up to 68.7%.

"We are extremely pleased with the results emerging from our ongoing metallurgical test work program at the RPM Deposit, which we believe continues to demonstrate the exceptional quality and scalability of the Estelle Project," said Christopher Gerteisen, CEO of Nova Minerals. "The ability to extract up to 68.7% gold recovery from lower-grade material through heap leaching, combined with a 4.33 times upgrade using ore sorting technology, is a significant technical breakthrough, in our opinion. These results underscore the economic potential through innovative processing methods as we continue to refine our development pathway."

The company says these results support its strategy of combining CIP/CIL processing with ore sorting and heap leaching to maximize project economics ahead of its upcoming prefeasibility study.

Cerrado Gold Inc. (TSXV: CERT) (OTCQX: CRDOF) recently announced it had produced 11,437 gold equivalent ounces at its Minera Don Nicolás Mine in Q2 2025, with underground development at the Paloma pit now underway and expected to ramp up in H2.

"As the heap leach continues to ramp up to its fully expanded capacity, we continue to be confident in our full year expectations as the underground operations ramp-up in H2/25," said Mark Brennan, CEO and Chairman of Cerrado. "Cerrado also continued to progress both the Lagoa Salgada project and the Mont Sorcier projects towards completion of feasibility studies by Q3/2025 and Q1/2026 respectively, which we believe should demonstrate substantial value being unlocked by Cerrado's development projects."

Heap leach upgrades and a 20,000m drill program are in progress to boost recovery and expand resources, while exploration drilling has already intercepted new vein structures. The company is also advancing feasibility work at its Lagoa Salgada and Mont Sorcier projects, with updates expected later this year.

Equity Insider News Commentary

Issued on behalf of Lake Victoria Gold Ltd.

VANCOUVER, BC, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Equity Insider News Commentary – So far in 2025, gold has twice touched the remarkable $3,400 per ounce mark—first in April and again this week—raising the question of just how far this rally could go. Bloomberg Intelligence's Senior Commodity Strategist Mike McGlone suggests the widening gap between oil and gold prices signals not only recessionary pressure, but also a potential surge to $4,000 gold. Meanwhile, industry veteran Rob McEwen believes investor momentum could carry gold even higher, forecasting a rush back into mining equities and a possible run to $5,000 per ounce. Against this backdrop, several gold companies have issued timely updates, including Lake Victoria Gold (TSXV: LVG) (OTCQB: LVGLF), Kinross Gold Corporation (NYSE: KGC) (TSX: K), SSR Mining Inc. (NASDAQ: SSRM) (TSX: SSRM), Dundee Precious Metals Inc. (TSX: DPM) (OTCPK: DPMLF), and New Found Gold Corp. (NYSE-American: NFGC) (TSXV: NFG).

Lake Victoria Gold (TSXV: LVG) (OTCQB: LVGLF), a junior gold developer focused on East Africa, continues to advance its near-term development strategy in Tanzania. A third-party commissioning auditor, Nesch Mintech Tanzania, has been formally retained and will participate in the commissioning process at Nyati Resources' gold processing plant expected in June. This follows the signing of a non-binding Letter of Intent between LVG and Nyati for a potential small-scale development partnership. Nesch has been engaged to assess plant readiness, recovery rates, and potential optimization opportunities as Nyati prepares to bring a second processing unit online.

"Engaging Nesch Mintech at this stage ensures we bring third-party rigour and transparency to the commissioning process, which is fundamental to assessing the Nyati opportunity," said Marc Cernovitch, President and CEO of Lake Victoria Gold. "We are excited by the potential to leverage existing processing infrastructure and local ore sources to create a scalable gold production platform in Tanzania."

Combined with the existing 120 tpd facility, the expansion is expected to deliver a total capacity of 620 tpd—laying the groundwork for a centralized gold processing hub under the proposed joint venture with LVG and MIPCCL.

"This audit is an important milestone as we advance this most compelling near-term gold development opportunity," said Simon Benstead, Executive Director of Lake Victoria Gold. "By combining strategic processing infrastructure with high-potential development targets, the proposed joint venture has the potential to unlock meaningful value for all stakeholders. We look forward to working closely with Nesch Mintech to validate the plant's performance and move confidently toward execution."

Under the proposed partnership plan, mineralized material from LVG's 100%-owned Mining Licences would be processed through Nyati's 120 tpd facility and a second 500 tpd expansion plant currently being finalized—creating a centralized processing hub.

The audit by Nesch Mintech is a critical next step in validating that vision. The company notes that it is not underpinned by a current mineral resource estimate or Feasibility Study and remains subject to meaningful technical and economic risks. This collaboration offers LVG a chance to test key assumptions in the field and potentially self-fund continued exploration.

The Nyati LOI builds on LVG's earlier disclosure that it was exploring small-scale development opportunities at its Tembo Project, within the company's four Mining Licences.

Located adjacent to Barrick's Bulyanhulu Mine, Tembo has already seen more than US$28 million in historical exploration, including over 50,000 metres of drilling. Targets like Ngula 1, Nyakagwe Village, and Nyakagwe East remain open at depth and along strike—underscoring the project's long-term discovery potential.

"Tembo has always stood out as a project with the potential to deliver both near-term value and long-term discovery upside," said Benstead. "Evaluating this small-scale development opportunity allows us to test the system, generate operational insights, and potentially self-fund ongoing exploration. We believe this approach aligns well with our disciplined strategy and our commitment to responsible, phased development in Tanzania."

While Tembo provides strategic upside, LVG's Imwelo Project (acquired earlier this year) remains more advanced of the company's asset portfolio. Fully permitted and supported by a 2021 pre-feasibility study, Imwelo is positioned for streamlined development near AngloGold Ashanti's Geita Mine. The company continues to align capital and partnerships to advance toward construction.

To that end, LVG secured a non-binding gold prepay term sheet with Monetary Metals in late 2024. The arrangement provides upfront capital now, in exchange for delivering a portion of future gold production at a modest discount. This non-dilutive structure aligns repayment with LVG's production timeline and outlines access to the value of up to 7,000 ounces of gold—helping fund construction and development at the Imwelo Project.

In February 2025, the company also completed a C$3.52 million investment tranche with Taifa Group at C$0.22 per share as part of a greater three-tranche C$11.52 million financing. Along with the deal, it brough in former Taifa CEO Richard Reynolds onto LVG's board.

Further upside remains through a 2021 agreement with Barrick, which outlines up to US$45 million in milestone-based payments tied to success at Tembo.

With commissioning audits scheduled, a potential joint venture moving through due diligence, and potential funding agreements in place, Lake Victoria Gold continues to build momentum as one of East Africa's most dynamic emerging gold developers.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market include:

Kinross Gold Corporation (NYSE: KGC) (TSX: K) kicked off 2025 with strong results, more than doubling its free cash flow year-over-year to $370.8 million and boosting margins by 67% to $1,814 per ounce sold. The company reaffirmed full-year guidance and ramped up shareholder returns, targeting $650 million in buybacks and dividends. With $2.3 billion in total liquidity, Kinross is advancing key projects like Great Bear and Round Mountain Phase X while maintaining a strong balance sheet.

"Our culture of technical excellence and financial discipline, complemented by our consistent operating performance, continues to drive strong margins and cash flow, all of which underpin our capital allocation strategy," said J. Paul Rollinson, CEO of Kinross. "We continue to advance our pipeline of high-quality development projects and exploration opportunities across our broader portfolio with a focus on driving value for our shareholders through this decade and beyond."

SSR Mining Inc. (NASDAQ: SSRM) (TSX: SSRM) recently delivered first-quarter 2025 production of 103,805 gold equivalent ounces and generated $84.8 million in operating cash flow, with adjusted net income reaching $61.6 million or $0.29 per share. The company officially added Cripple Creek & Victor (CC&V) to its portfolio in late February, contributing to a seamless quarter despite Çöpler remaining offline.

"We are well on track for full-year consolidated production and cost guidance, and are positioned to generate strong free cash flows through the remainder of the year," said Rod Antal, Executive Chairman of SSR Mining. "In Türkiye, initial development activities continued at Hod Maden in the quarter, while efforts at Çöpler remain focused on advancing the operation towards a potential restart."

SSR ended the quarter with $319.6 million in cash and $819.6 million in total liquidity.

Dundee Precious Metals Inc. (TSX: DPM) (OTCPK: DPMLF) generated $79.1 million in free cash flow in Q1 2025 and returned a record $90.4 million to shareholders through dividends and share repurchases. The company produced nearly 50,000 ounces of gold and 5.9 million pounds of copper, reaffirming guidance for the year. With $763 million in cash and no debt, Dundee is advancing feasibility work on Čoka Rakita in Serbia and Loma Larga in Ecuador.

"Our 55,000-metre drilling program focused on testing high priority targets proximal to our Čoka Rakita project is advancing well, with 14 drill rigs currently in operation," said David Rae, President and CEO of Dundee. "The drilling program continues to expand the copper-gold Dumitru Potok discovery, and we have yet to define its limits as it remains open in multiple directions and at depth."

New Found Gold Corp. (NYSE-American: NFGC) (TSXV: NFG) continues to demonstrate the depth potential of its Queensway Gold Project, with standout intercepts including 38.7 g/t Au over 6.55 m at Dome and 10.3 g/t Au over 8.20 m at Keats South Deep. These new results lie outside the project's initial mineral resource estimate and show growing scale at depth, with visible gold present in multiple deep holes.

"At Dome we are finding new high-grade gold mineralization within 250 m of surface," said Melissa Render, President of New Found Gold. "The Phase I deep drilling at KSD and Keats-AFZ Deep, located well below the initial mineral resource, has begun to define new zones more than a kilometre below surface, pointing to the depth potential at Queensway."

With Phase I deep drilling now complete, New Found Gold is planning its 2025 program focused on near-surface resource conversion and expansion around recent discoveries.
