At The Precious Metals Summit Beaver Creek, Martino De Ciccio, CEO of Montage Gold Corp. (TSX: MAU), joins us to explain how the company turned an overlooked gold project into a growing African gold business. Steve highlights the stock’s 32X rise, and Martino breaks down the decisions behind that performance.
We discuss finding the right assets and backers, securing financing, protecting shareholders from excessive dilution, and moving Koné toward production. Martino also explains why high gold grades alone don’t guarantee a profitable mine, and why infrastructure, mining costs and metallurgy matter.
With the company valued at approximately $8 billion at the time of recording, Martino addresses what he believes the market still isn’t pricing in. We cover Koné’s expanding resources, the target of 350,000–400,000 ounces of annual production, and growth opportunities at Didievi, Wendé and the company’s properties in Mauritania.
