Uranium stabilized near $70, while oil bounced off lows but remains under pressure. Steve also previews setups in PHYS, GDX, COPX, and more. Energy and industrials delivered mixed signals.

25% Copper?! How Magna Mining Plans to 10x in 3 Years!
Jason Jessop, CEO of Magna Mining, delivers a key update from the 2025 Rule Symposium, spotlighting the company's aggressive growth in Ontario's Sudbury Basin. With a $365M CAD market cap, no debt, $38M in cash, and 48 million tons of resource, Magna is ramping up copper production from its flagship McCreedy West Mine. Jessop breaks down Magna's strategic focus on high-grade footwall copper deposits, with recent drill results hitting up to 25% copper. Backed by fully permitted projects like Shakespeare and Podolsky, Magna's low-capex model sells ore directly to mills, bypassing costly infrastructure. With over 5% insider ownership and long-term support from Dundee Corp, Magna is on track to bring multiple mines online by 2028. Catalysts include monthly drill results, a reserve update, and government recognition as a critical minerals company, setting the stage for significant investor interest. Connect with Jason Jessop!

Reprocessing 400 Years of Riches: Why Cerro de Pasco Could Be 2025's Best Mine Bet!
Guy Goulet, CEO of Cerro de Pasco Resources, delivers a major update from the 2025 Rule Symposium in Boca Raton. With a $250M CAD market cap, $17M in cash, and no debt, the company controls one of the world's largest above-ground mineral resources—historic tailings left behind from centuries of inefficient processing in Peru. Goulet outlines plans to reprocess these tailings using modern technology, including floating barges and slurry pumps, targeting high-grade silver, zinc, copper, and critical metals like gallium and indium. Cerro de Pasco expects potential annual profits between $140M and $610M, supported by metallurgical studies in Canada, Germany, and Sweden. Backed by a seasoned team and strong insider ownership, the project aims to deliver major economic and social impact for the local community. With no mining required and support from Peruvian authorities, Cerro de Pasco is on track to become a highly profitable, environmentally clean mining operation. Connect with Guy Goulet!
