The KE Report

Glenn Jessome, President & CEO of Silver Tiger Metals (TSX.V:SLVR) (OTCQX:SLVTF), joins us for a very key development update and Company milestone.  The press release March 18th stated that the Board of Directors of Silver Tiger Metals has approved the construction decision of the surface mine; with commissioning and first pour targeted for December, 2027; at the El Tigre Silver-Gold Project in Sonora, Mexico.   We started off with a brief reminder on why the Company elected to take the recent financing, which closed on February 18th, in lieu of a much larger debt package with restrictive covenants. That appears to have been the right decision to bolster its strong financial position, especially in light of the market volatility that we’ve seen across the whole precious metals complex since then.   Silver Tiger has over US$86 million (or ~C$120 million) cash to execute on the immediate development initiatives. The Company is also nearing completion of a debt financing package, with term sheets advanced and negotiations narrowed to select providers to provide flexible, non-dilutive capital options to support combined surface and underground development at El Tigre.   Silver Tiger just announced that it has entered into an Engineering Procurement and Construction Management Contract ("EPCM") with Kappes, Cassidy & Associates ("KCA") and Kappes, Cassiday del Norte S de RL de CV ("KCN") to assist in the construction of the mine and process plant at El Tigre. The Company has also now hired its own experienced mine construction executive team to work with KCA and KCN.   Significant development progress has already been made to date including:   Basic engineering for the Mine has been prepared by KCA and is 90% complete Engineering for the heap leach and waste dump for the Mine has been completed by WSP Land clearing for the Mine construction area has commenced, including flora and fauna rescue The personnel camp for the Mine and the construction offices have been designed and are currently in a bid process Engineering for improvements to the 46 km road from Colonia Morelos to El Tigre, which was built by the Corporation in 2023 and 2024, is complete and the contract to carry out the road improvements is currently in a bid process     The Company is nearing completion of its ongoing metallurgical and geotechnical drilling program in the Stockwork Zone, with this program expected to wrap up within the next 30 days.  Upon completion, the Company will immediately transition to exploration drilling targeting the high-potential vein systems north of the main El Tigre area, near the historic North Tigre Mine. This priority zone aligns directly with the El Tigre North Mine Design outlined in Section 24 of the Company's recently filed Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA dated January 20, 2026).    If you have any follow up questions for Glenn regarding Silver Tiger Metals, then please email them into me at Shad@kereport.com.   In full disclosure, Shad is a shareholder of Silver Tiger Metals at the time of this recording, and may choose to buy or sell shares at any time.   Click here to follow the latest news from Silver Tiger Metals     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.

In this Daily Editorial, we welcome back Dave Erfle, the founder and editor of Junior Miner Junky, to make sense of one of the worst weeks for precious metals in over 40 years. Following a significant drop in gold prices and a sharp sell-off in mining equities, Dave breaks down the technical damage, the impact of global margin calls, and whether the sector has finally reached a capitulation point. Key Discussion Points: Market Capitulation and Deleveraging: Dave explains how the recent price action was driven by forced liquidations and margin calls rather than a shift in long-term fundamentals. Technical Breakdown of Mining ETFs: An analysis of the GDX and GDXJ, focusing on the formation of bear flags below key support levels and the importance of the 200-day moving average. The Disconnect Between Fundamentals and Price: Why the structural case for gold remains robust due to rising national debt, central bank buying, and stagflationary pressures, even as paper markets face extreme volatility. Strategies for the Current Environment: The importance of maintaining cash positions during deleveraging events and why the "energy" created by this sell-off could fuel the next major move higher. Junior Miner Performance: Insight into the high-volume spikes seen in quality junior explorers and what the Bullish Percentage Index (BPGDM) tells us about a potential bottom.   Click here to visit the Junior Miner Junky website to learn more about Dave’s investment letter - https://www.juniorminerjunky.com/   ------------------ For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:  The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/  Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/ Investment Disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security or investment product.

In this Daily Editorial, we welcome back Trader Ferg, an independent speculator and author of the popular Trader Ferg Substack. As geopolitical conflicts continue to reshape global trade, Ferg joins us to discuss the structural "off-ramps" disappearing in the energy sector and where he is finding the most asymmetric value in a volatile market. Discussion Highlights: The Global LNG Shortfall: The discussion begins with the severe damage to Qatari LNG infrastructure, which Ferg notes could take years to fully recover. This has led to a massive energy deficit in Europe and Asia. The Strategic Pivot to Coal: With LNG supplies constrained, Ferg highlights the "knife fight" for coal in the Asian cooling season. He identifies high-quality thermal coal as a primary beneficiary of the current energy gap. Agriculture and the Fertilizer Link: Ferg explains why he is bullish on Corn, citing the massive disruption in fertilizer shipments through the Strait of Hormuz during peak planting season. The Structural Bull Case for Uranium: The conversation shifts to the nuclear sector, where Ferg emphasizes that energy security concerns are forcing countries like Japan, China, and South Korea to pivot back to uranium as a reliable baseload power source. Constraints on the AI Energy Buildout: Ferg expresses skepticism regarding the rapid expansion of AI data centers, noting that the physical constraints of the U.S. electrical grid.   Click here to visit Trader Ferg’s Substack. - https://traderferg.substack.com/   Companies & Stocks Mentioned: Whitehaven Coal (ASX: WHC), Arch Resources (NYSE: ARCH), CONSOL Energy (NYSE: CEIX), Newhope (ASX: NHC), Yancoal (ASX: YAL), Thungela Resources (LSE: TGA), Bannerman Energy (ASX: BMN), Cameco (NYSE: CCJ), Kazatomprom (LSE: KAP), Sprott Physical Uranium Trust (TSX: U.UN), Yellow Cake PLC (LSE: YCA)   ----------------- For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:  The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/  Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/ Investment Disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security or investment product.

Elaine Ellingham, President and CEO of Omai Gold Mines Corp. (TSXV: OMG) (OTCQB: OMGGF), joins me for an exploration update, with mineralization expanding upon the updated Resource Estimate of 6.5 million ounces of gold in all categories, from the combined Wenot and Gilt Creek Projects at the Company’s 100%-owned Omai Gold Project in Guyana, South America.  We also discuss the dual path of the company now, split between exploration, and all the project derisking being factored into development and the upcoming updated economic study.   The Omai Property hosts two orogenic gold deposits: the shear-hosted Wenot Deposit and the adjacent intrusive-hosted Gilt Creek Deposit, with a combined updated MRE of:   2,121,000 ounces of gold (Indicated MRE), averaging 2.07 g/t Au in 31.9Mt & 4,382,000 ounces of gold (Inferred MRE), averaging 1.95 g/t Au in 69.6Mt   Multiple drills have been turning from the second half of 2025 through present where an additional ~18,000 meters of new drilling was completed at the Omai Gold property, which will then factor into the imminent updated project Resource Estimate.  That updated model will then be incorporated into the upcoming Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), slated for Q2 of 2026.    Multiple zones of gold mineralization were intersected in each of these recent assays from drills holes released February 25th, which will be included in the upcoming Mineral Resource Estimate ("MRE"). Highlights from the recent drill holes include:   Hole 25ODD-119W 4.18 g/t Au over 14.6m; including 9.12 g/t Au over 4.1m 2.38 g/t Au over 23.3m; including 3.95 g/t Au over 11.8m 07 g/t Au over 27.4m; including 11.64 g/t Au over 1.1m 73 g/t Au over 17.3m; including 8.61 g/t Au over 5.1m Hole 25ODD-150W3 1.94 g/t Au over 30.3m; including 3.03 g/t Au over 15.9m, and also including 14.35 g/t Au over 2.5m Hole 25ODD-159 1.75 g/t Au over 19.3m, and 14.45 g/t Au over 2.5m     The Company is also pleased to announce that next phase of exploration, with a 50,000-metre diamond drill program has commenced. It is designed to further pursue opportunities to expand the overall Omai gold resources, explore certain nearby geophysical anomalies, while continuing the priority work of upgrading the categories from inferred to indicated in the large Wenot resource; which is an important next step.  We discussed some of the regional targets of focus at Wenot East, the Camp Zone, BBH, and the Wenot "Handle Target", highlighted through geophysics studies.    This updated Preliminary Economic Assessment will be building upon the prior PEA that was released in 2024, which was only on 45% of the mineral inventory focused on the open-pit at Wenot.  That prior PEA did not yet include rest of the resources there at Wenot, nor did it include the underground project economics from the Gilt Creek deposit.  The updated PEA slated for next quarter will be much more advanced and will factor in the combined economics of the open-pit at Wenot, and the underground at Gilt Creek, representing the value proposition of the total project more accurately.   Next we reviewed the results from the very long hole, over 2,000 meters in length, that was drilled through the underground deposit at Gilt Creek over into the area deep under the Wenot deposit.  The geological thesis of drill hole # 25ODD–122W held up proving that there are additional deep sheer resources well below the known mineralization at Wenot.  This points to the much longer mine life that is inferred, even though there has not yet been extensive drilling at depth, below known Wenot mineralization, prior to that hole proving the geological thesis.      Wrapping up we discussed the company valuation compared to peers on a P/NAV basis, recent metallurgical testing, the ongoing permitting process work towards the EIA, and other derisking work on the Project, gathering all the data to be utilized in the upcoming PEA.     If you have any questions for Elaine regarding Omai Gold Mines, then please email those to me at Shad@kereport.com.   Click here to see the latest news from Omai Gold Mines.     For more market commentary & interview summaries, subscribe to our Substacks:   The KE Report: https://kereport.substack.com/ Shad’s resource market commentary: https://excelsiorprosperity.substack.com/     Investment disclaimer: This content is for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, an offer, or a solicitation to buy or sell any security.
