The Investment Thesis
Our investment thesis can be broken down into the following key points:
Sponsored · Selkirk Copper Mines
- The current macro environment has created a bullish catalyst for the price of gold with the world’s largest central banks expanding their balance sheets to fill the gap in GDP from reduced productivity.
- Freeman Gold has a large deposit with some historical estimates coming in over 1 million ounces of oxide, open-pit, heap leachable gold at the Lehmi Project in Idaho – and one that proves economic.
- The property already has 355 holes drilled into the deposit area, giving the company strong data to expand the resource.
- Mineralization is open at depth, with many holes being drilled to a max depth of 250m, often bottoming in mineralization, open along strike, and largely untested regionally.
- The Lemhi property has seen some drill large results including 1.8 g/t Au over 193.55 m and 4.28 g/t Au over 54.96m.
- Idaho was ranked No. 8 in the world on the 2019 Fraser Institute rankings of mining attractiveness index.
- At the time of publishing, Freeman has favourable comparisons relative to other mining companies in the area currently trading at less than $30/oz in the ground (market cap to inferred resource).
Overall, the Deep Dive sees a potential setup for the greatest gold rush in decades within the near term. Companies with large deposits, in safe regions, that trade at reasonable metrics, in our opinion have favorable risk/reward profiles for investors. We feel that Freeman gold fits this framework perfectly.
