From Permits to Gold Pour: Why Readiness Matters

This article has been disseminated on behalf of LaFleur Minerals Inc. and may include a paid advertisement. MiningNewsWire Editorial Coverage: One of the most pivotal moments in a mining company’s lifecycle is not the initial discovery phase or the point at which production is fully established, but rather the transition between exploration and production. At this stage, geological uncertainty has been largely addressed, infrastructure is complete, pathways to production are defined and capital is aligned with execution. Historically, this combination has created the conditions for substantial valuation expansion. Adequate funding becomes critical during this transition, enabling companies to move beyond planning and…

Massive Lithium Deposits Discovered in Oregon

Lithium is a lightweight and highly efficient mineral with the ability to store energy for a significant amount of time. This explains why it remains in constant demand and why many consumers and industries favor lithium-ion batteries. Now, a recent study determined that the McDermitt Caldera may be home to one of the biggest deposits of lithium in the world. This ancient volcanic depression is in Oregon and is said to host other mineral deposits, among them, uranium and mercury. The lithium deposit is valued at roughly $1.5 trillion, with geologists estimating that it contains between 20 and 40 million metric tons of the mineral. Many view this deposit as a significant advantage, particularly for U.S. electric vehicle battery production, as more countries seek to reduce reliance on foreign sources for critical…

From Permits to Pouring Gold: The Power of Being Production-Ready

This article has been disseminated on behalf of LaFleur Minerals Inc. and may include a paid advertisement. MiningNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The most powerful moment to get involved in a mining company’s story is often not at the earliest discovery stage, or even after production is fully established, but at the precise inflection point when a company transitions from explorer to producer. This is the stage where geological risk has been substantially reduced, infrastructure decisions have been made and capital is finally aligned with execution, creating the conditions for outsized valuation re-ratings. Solid funding is essential at this juncture, as it…

Expected Cobalt Deficit Threatens Supply Outlook in 2026

In early 2025, the Democratic Republic of Congo suspended cobalt exports in an effort to influence global prices and shift to a quota system. The country is the biggest producer of the metal, supplying over 70% of the world. Between 2026-2027, the country expects to export a total of 96,600 tons of the metal annually. While this shift toward a resource-nationalist strategy is a positive for the country, it does also impose significant new structural limits on the global cobalt supply chain. By capping annual exports at 87,000 tons through 2027 and diverting 9,600 tons per year into a strategic stockpile, the government is moving beyond routine regulatory intervention. These actions signal a broader transition away from…

Analysts Highlight the Growing Disconnect in Silver’s Price

Following a more than 20% increase in December, silver ended the year as the top-performing asset. However, market participants caution that the move does not mirror past speculative spikes such as the quantitative-easing rally of 2011 or the Hunt brothers-driven surge in the 80s. While prices retreated once leverage was unwound because sufficient supply was available in the past, that isn’t the case today. Now, the silver market is marked by increasing geopolitical constraints on the movement of physical metal, rapidly growing industrial demand, and a sustained supply shortfall. In 2011, the surge was fuelled largely by investment inflows, particularly into ETFs, as investors sought protection from aggressive quantitative easing. Industrial demand was far lower then, and sizeable above-ground stockpiles in Western…
