Erik Wetterling – The Value Proposition In West Point Gold and Silver47 Exploration
Erik Wetterling, Founder and Editor of The Hedgeless Horseman website, joins me to discuss the attractive value proposition that he sees in 2 different junior gold and silver explorers that have some recent news out; which sets up future news releases to build upon their current work programs.
First up, we discuss West Point Gold Corp. (TSXV: WPG) (OTCQB: WPGCF), and how it came out of the business combination of 2 prior junior exploration companies. The company has multiple projects in Nevada like the Tip Top, Jefferson Canyon, and Jefferson North projects, but the focus of the recent exploration work is at their Gold Chain Project in Arizona, nearby the producing Moss Mine. The company recently released infill sampling on drill holes GC24-30, GC24-31 and GC24-32 demonstrating that mineralization at the Tyro Main Zone is wider and more continuous than previously thought.
Silver47 Exploration Corp. (TSXV: AGA) owns three silver and critical metals (polymetallic) exploration projects in Canada and the US: the Flagship Red Mountain silver-gold-zinc-copper-lead VMS-SEDEX project in southcentral Alaska; the Adams Plateau silver-zinc-copper-gold-lead SEDEX-VMS project in southern British Columbia, and the Michelle silver-lead-zinc-gallium-antimony MVT-SEDEX Project in Yukon Territory. Erik highlights the potential for both optionality to rising metals prices and their ability to do some meaningful exploration with the capital already raised for this year’s program.
* In full disclosure, the companies mentioned by Erik in this interview, are positions held in his personal portfolio, and also may be site sponsors of The Hedgeless Horseman website at the time of this recording.
