INSIGHT

Indicated Conversion Fueled By New Geological Model

  • Banyan converted nearly all inferred ounces to 2.2Moz indicated through a new geological model and disciplined 20,000m drilling in 2024.
  • Tara Christie says that cleared overhangs and a $31.4M financing let them scale to a 43,000m 2025–26 program focused on high-grade and economics.
ADVICE

Clear Overhangs Before Market Campaigns

  • Remove strategic and ownership overhangs before heavy market marketing to allow fair re-rating.
  • Banyan cleared perceived ties to Victoria Gold, verified share placements, then executed a $31.4M raise to expand drilling.
ADVICE

Update Resource First Then Publish PEA Economics

  • Stage resource update before PEA to demonstrate progress and underpin economics.
  • Banyan plans a Q2 2026 updated resource (aiming toward 5Moz >1g at 0.55g cutoff) then a PEA in H2 2026 to show project economics.
