Cracking find that Harry, CuckoldKing locked the highlights, the Philippines is one of the richest mineral resource in the world and pro mining, and we are the number 1 gold miner with 3 years straight winning the Presidential awards, the highest award in country.

Massive future.

The price of gold is going higher regardless of the war in the Gaza ceasing or not, it’s not wars taking it higher, it’s the collapse of FIAT money in relation to gold, the printing of money from thin air is the catalyst for golds rise, as it’s impossible for any government to stop increasing budget deficits, the increase in printed money just accelerates, and it’s the only way they know how to deal with the situation, keep inflating and kick the can down the road, gold is the only way to protect yourself, the banks and wealthy know it, hence the rush to safety and huge gold purchases at any price, don’t be fooled, hold onto your gold and gold stocks for dear life.

DareinTaylor, we currently produce at Runruno in the Philippines, we have 5 more quarters of production remaining before reserves are exhausted, remaining production will be around 85 to 90k ounces at $1250 AISC, so around $240 million remaining income.

La India in Nicaragua comes online in Q4 2026 and picks up the baton, with production levels aimed at 145k ounce gold production per annum, so we will increase production without any gaps, AISC in the region of $1000, so we will more than double current incomes assuming gold remains the same level.

Runruno is looking to carry on producing in mid 2027 using local reserves at Dupax, quantities still to be confirmed, and hopefully we will know before the end of this year on how long those reserves will last.

Dupax gold is high grade and Darren Bowden the CEO expects to produce more than double Runruno produces today using such grades.

We are debt free and half of our shares are held by 2 major share holders and the CEO, Drachs is one of those major holders has bought over 600 million shares in the last 15 months and paid up to 16p for some of them.

Hope that helps.

KEFI up 90% this month…..is it an investment case or a casino, produces nothing, lost £9.9 million Year to Date and about to borrow £340 million to produce something years down the road is not something you ride a fortune on is it? MTL is in another league and can’t be compared with KEFI.

Connect, you need to realise many here have large holdings, and even larger gains from holding steady and letting the company grow, the growth part is in plain sight, the in out style of investing you talk about may work for small holdings, try selling 5 to 10 million shares and then try buying them back, you can’t, so saying I am being detrimental to others saying they should hold tight is incorrect, I have been singing MTLs praise and golds price rise correctly for the last 5 years, and have seen 3000% increase on a lot of my holding because I was correct, a few others have had the same benefit from my blinkered approach as you put it.

Picking year to date numbers for growth is not cherry picking, it’s how you look at any business, you micro pick a month and expect to judge a company is just silly.

Huge gains to come and I 100% will be there to see them, Hold onto your shares, it’s that simple, 153% to date is just the starter. iMHO

Can we put the MTL share performance into perspective, some here feel that the grass is greener elsewhere and that somehow MTL isn’t performing as well as others.

Here are the performance stats as of tonight for MTL, GDX and GDXJ

These are the Year to Date stats:

MTL: +155%

GDX: +124%

GDXJ: +133%

For those not sure what GDX and GDXJ are, they are 2 gold ETFs that hold a basket of large gold miners in the case of GDX and a basket of smaller miners in the case of GDXJ.

So as they are multiple mining companies performance averaged out, and as you can see MTL has beaten both ETFs and in the next year we are set to double our shareprice, can the others catch up to MTL would be my question?

Warning as in don’t let go of your precious metals and mining stocks.

This man knows exactly what’s in play, and has called it perfectly well before this recent rise, he’s well worth a watch and should help you decide how to play the next 5 years.

It’s clear every pull back in Silver and Gold in being taken advantage of, the panic to hold is just beginning, those waiting for a significant pullback are going to disappointed, sideways and consolidation is about the best situation for those on the sidelines can hope for.

Silver has had 5 years of a 20% production deficit to actual use, we have months not years of reserves, the precious metals rally is in early stages still, minimum 5 to 10 years ahead of us, when shortages hit home, the availability with be impossible for individuals and holding tight of your mining stocks and precious metals will be the best advice for everyone.

Hold tight to your stacks and miners IMHO

We know the results are I/2 of what they could be, but we know that delayed gold is coming down the line in just over a years time, now at a higher price, we also know that the CEO stated we will still hit production guidance for the year, and even better, we will exceed production guidance FCF, because the gold price is so much higher than last year, a record FCF year is still in hand.

MTL is transforming in plain view, a good quarter gold production used to be massive news, now we know we have multiple massive reserves, soon a second mine, a massively higher gold price and no debts, the future doesn’t get any brighter.

Physical Gold and Silver are becoming extremely hard to obtain already, the public are waking up, finally, the institutional investors are now publicly saying they need 20% exposure to Gold, from 0% that’s a game changer, watch gold fly past $4000

Hold onto your shares for dear life.

Central bank buying is constantly huge, but now the public and institutional investors are slowly slowly waking up, and I mean slowly, we have so much more to come, this is an early stage of the bull run, Hold onto your shares for dear life.

Life changing times for the 1% of us in the know IMHO

I believe holding the course is more important than what you do in between, whether you sell high and buy low, remember the opposite trade means someone bought high and sold low, it’s a gamble, and for me just holding ensures I get the growth in value without further risk, the many I have seen come and go in my personal journey with MTL have mostly been those who traded MTL, and those who have held hook or by crook are still here, making huge gains with just patience, but everyone has there own tactic and I hope we all find success, it’s not hard when you are sat on a quality company like ours.

Smoothbrain, Darren said in the latest Crux video, he wouldn’t need the BIOX circuit to complete the processing of Runrunos reserves after Q3 2026, so they will remove the BIOX and start the alterations required to process the Dupax reserves, whilst processing the last Runruno gold over the Q4 2026 period.

The plan is to have Dupax reserves being processed by mid 2027 with the fully converted Runruno plant.

The cost to start the alterations in Q4 2026 may be a stretch on the finances, but I know gold will be a lot higher in price over this period and I think Darren will be blessed with more FCF than he can imagine currently, mid 2027 will have us with 2 operating mines and zero debts.

It reads like a trader view point, telling investors to take profits and jump out and jump back in, it’s not easy or worth risking, the tide is gold is going higher, the hardest thing for investors is to do nothing, but floating around for 5 years will let the tide take you where it’s going, that’s higher, along with gold stock prices and profits IMHO

Pierre Lassonde is an amazing gold expert, wisdom comes with age, the video explains the financial mess the world is in, as a result golds going to the moon, hence my pennies to pounds statements, those in the know of these gold and silver stocks is a small fraction of 1% in the investing public, and yet they are a couple of the best performing assets on the planet this year, and set to continue in that vein, the lack of sync between cash generation reality and investor sentiment is the biggest ever, as it aligns back to reality then we will be sat with our sub basement entry priced tickets.

Hold onto your metals and gold stocks, MTL is positioned perfectly to maximise this bull rally and 10 bagging current values is not a dream, it’s to become reality for those with 5 years patience.

Darren’s always said he would have a set of results by the end of this year, we as PIs just hoped he would have a teaser set of results, I think it’s clear from the future plans of Runruno in the latest interview he’s talking about Dupax in the sense it’s a goer, never mentions “if” you can tell from his plans he knows it’s a starter, I think he just needs more results to tell us for how long it’s a goer, if it’s small, maybe a couple years, if it’s big, decade plus.

Hold

Onto your shares, the fun hasn’t started, a billionaire will take every one you have if you let he, she’s paid over 15p along time back.

I picked up on the finance to be a possibility and not a definite, importantly it’s not for the La India build, that’s already budgeted and does not need finance, but to get Dupax going quickly, they want to start the conversion of the Runruno plant at the end of 2026 Q3 to facilitate the Dupax reserves, that’s 2 builds at the same time in 2026 Q4 the end of La India’s build and the start of the Runruno/Dupax build, expensive quarter, with Drachs support in the past, I’m sure that’s his insurance if required, although if gold continues its march higher he may find Runrunos last 5 quarters more profitable than he believes today, and as such not require additional funds.

Great timing on the video, I only asked for one this morning, very positive as usual, other than the tragic loss of life of those illegal miners, but his plans to help them mine safely in the future is inspiring.

Cheers Dunston, the future is infinite as I have said, the fact it was exciting when gold was $1000 cheaper doesn’t seem to be reflected at MTL at all, I still cannot fathom the consistent lack of realisation as to what we have in our hands, in terms of the consistent changing of hands with PIs shares going into the hands of the the billionaire investors we have, absolute shame, I do my best to get aspects seen but it doesn’t sink in for many.

Opportunity of one’s lifetime.

That Crux video was June 2025, I’m hoping another one very soon, the pace of change in MTL requires quarterly interviews Darren….Please.

If you really want an invite to the bigger plans, I mean bigger than La India and Dupax, take a listen to this, enjoy:

This video was made in March 2025, we had a $2800 gold price at the time, Darren mentioned $10 million FCF income per month from Runruno at that point in time, he mentioned $1 billion company valuations by 2028 based on $2800 gold, so what are the numbers currently generated from Runruno and future incomes now we are blessed with $3800.

Good watch for those invested or not yet invested.
