Is This The Best Way To Play $2000 Gold?

What do the founders and shareholders of the company that made one of the biggest high-grade gold discoveries of the decade in Quebec know that investors don’t know? 

They think they know when and by whom the next big discovery might likely be made. 

They think they know because it’s a small-cap explorer who bought territory right next to its own discovery, making that small-cap appear to be one of the best pure play bets in what is one of the hottest gold spots in the world right now. 

They also think they know because they’re drilling closer and closer to the small-cap’s property boundary, and with each move closer, the grades are getting higher and the mineralization is open at depth. 

AMEX–the company that recently made a huge discovery in the same area–are doubling down that Starr is possibly going to repeat their success.  ” data-reactid=”20″>The junior explorer is Starr Peak Exploration Ltd. (TSX:STE.V; OTC:STRPF), and some of the founders of AMEX–the company that recently made a huge discovery in the same area–are doubling down that Starr is possibly going to repeat their success.  

It is also helpful that Quebec is one of the most coveted gold venues on the planet, and there’s never been a better time to own gold.  

AMEX Surged 7,000% in the past year. Anyone that missed that boat will be looking for the next potential one, and exposure is starting to show with Starr Peak–an obvious contender–seeing its shares gain around 800% in 12 months.

That’s because investors are starting to realize what Starr may be sitting on, and they’re watching the junior explorer aggressively move to expand its position with acquisition after acquisition

Quebec is the world’s queen of gold. Not just because it’s one of the most lucrative venues in the world, but because it’s one of the friendliest. There’s no arbitrary Africa regime to deal with, and there’s tons of infrastructure–the bane of many hotshot miners who get to gold and then can’t do anything with it. 

90% of the province’s substratum consists of Precambrian rock, which is famous for rich deposits of gold – as well as iron, copper, and nickel. The province is littered with mines–at least 30 major venues and at least 160 exploration projects.

Still, only around 40% of the province’s mineral potential is known, while the Abitibi Greenstone Belt is the holy grail and home to at least a dozen “world-class” deposits, including the recent giant discovery by Amex Exploration, which hit very high-grade gold here.” data-reactid=”42″>More than 90% of the province’s substratum consists of Precambrian rock, which is famous for rich deposits of gold – as well as iron, copper, and nickel.

That brought fame for AMEX’s Perron Gold Project–along with one of the most exciting stories for investors in ages. Perron is a massive 45 square kilometers boasting two significant faults that cover more than 15 kilometers of strike. With approximately $30 million in cash, AMEX is drilling furiously right now, with 6 rigs working nonstop and announcements coming steadily of more high-grade results.

No one (except AMEX) was paying attention when Starr Peak made its first big move. 

Now, it’s all unfolding to be the junior gold play of the year. 

TSX:STE.V; OTC:STRPF) didn’t just stop there… 

another deal in June. 

And then it bought the mine on the other side of it, too, on August 10th, when it acquired a 100%-interest in three gold targeted properties, orchestrating what can only be described as a mining coup for a small-cap company like this:  

  • The Normetal/Normetmar gold, copper, zinc and silver property
  • The Rousseau gold property
  • The Turgeon Lake gold property

Normétal Mine is a past-producing mine from which millions of tons of high-grade gold, copper and zinc have come. The adjacent mine, Normetmar, shows a historic resource of 306,000 t grading 11% zinc, of which only ~48,000 t has been mined since 1990. It also shows several gold intersections.” data-reactid=”76″>Now, Starr Peak has 74 miner claims on some 2,280 hectares in the world’s best-play gold venue.

Quebec’s Normétal Mine is a past-producing mine from which millions of tons of high-grade gold, copper and zinc have come. The adjacent mine, Normetmar, shows a historic resource of 306,000 t grading 11% zinc, of which only ~48,000 t has been mined since 1990. It also shows several gold intersections.

Two new additions include Rousseau, which is a bloc of 12 claims covering over 470 hectares in the Rollmac gold zone of 31,298 tonnes grading 11.99 g/t Au (historical) …

and Turgeon Lake, an additional 2 claims covering almost 113 hectares with samples at the water line assaying up to 168.3 g/t Au, 30.2 g/t Au and 23.7 g/t Au (GM 52490) and a drill hole assaying 18.7 g/t Au over 3.09 m, including 68.9 g/t Au and 10.48 g/t Ag over 0.4 m.(historical). 

It’s that acquisition hunger that’s been shooting the stock upwards over the past months. 

But now, there’s something else to look forward to … 

In its drilling progress, Amex is moving Eastward, closer and closer to Starr Peak’s property. And the closer they get, the better the numbers become. At last count, AMEX was only a kilometer away from Starr Peak.  

With every high-grade result AMEX announces, Starr Peak is the indirect beneficiary. 

Now it’s time for Starr Peak to drill, too. 

And it’s fully funded to do so. 

Laurentia Exploration to move things forward. The best news: this is the same geology firm behind the AMEX discovery. ” data-reactid=”85″>In fact, Starr Peak just secured the top geological consulting firm in Quebec, Laurentia Exploration to move things forward. The best news: this is the same geology firm behind the AMEX discovery. 

Starr Peak is identifying drill targets as we speak, and the drill campaign will launch before the end of this year, making the chances of this going mainstream–soon–extremely high. 

Everyone knows the AMEX story. The company is sitting on what some already predict 5 million ounces of gold and keeps proving up more and more. Its stock has gained 7,000% in a year, and it has a market cap of around $264 million. 

The biggest rewards for AMEX shareholders have already been handed out for those early-in investors before the discovery.

Now, it might be Starr Peak’s turn–even AMEX founders think so. If Starr Peak is sitting on a similar discovery with a market cap of only ~$40 million, the upside rewards could be phenomenal.

Other companies looking to take advantage of this year’s gold rush:

Barrick is the world’s second largest gold mine pulling down 140.8 tons of gold in 2018. And tho it’s been overtaken by Newmont, the Toronto-based gold giant operates in 13 countries, including Argentina, Canada, Chile, Côte d’Ivoire, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Dominican Republic, Mali, Papua New Guinea, Saudi Arabia, Tanzania, the United States and Zambia.

Backed by its massive market cap of $54 billion, Barrick Gold is on track to produce to produce between 4.6 to 5 million ounces of gold and between 440 to 500 million pounds of copper in 2020. At current prices, that could equate to as much as $1.5 billion in revenue from just its gold and copper assets.

Though Barrick dipped in March as the COVID-19 pandemic took global markets by surprise, year-to-date, Barrick has earned investors a handsome 56% return – in addition to its healthy dividends. With even more market makers turning bullish on gold, Barrick’s investors could see even higher returns by the end of the year.

Though Kinross has only been around since 1993 compared to some of its near-century old peers, the $11 billion gold company is no stranger to the scene. Operating in Brazil, Ghana, Mauritania, Russia and the United States, Kinross is slowly expanding its global footprint, and its moves are paying off.
