Finding The Next Great VMS District, With Jim Franklin

Joining SmallCapSteve today is Canadian geology legend James “Jim” Franklin. The “Godfather of VMS” begins today’s chat by talking about how he found his way to geology, before he gives us the lowdown on finding VMS deposits and his exciting new project with Vortex Metals (TSXV: VMS), where they stand on the brink of a very exciting discovery.

Vortex Metals was co-founded by experienced mining explorers and financiers David Jones, Vikas Ranjan, and Michael Williams. The company is set to begin an extensive drilling program on three high-grade copper-gold assets located in the emerging volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) belt of Oaxaca, Mexico.
