The gold price continued to move this week, approaching the US$3,900 per ounce level and setting a fresh all-time high on the back of a US government shutdown.

The closure came after Congress failed to reach an agreement on a spending bill ahead of the new American fiscal year, which began on Wednesday (October 1).

Democrats and Republicans are at odds as Democrats push for changes to the bill, including an extension to billions of dollars in Obamacare subsidies; meanwhile, President Donald Trump has threatened thousands of permanent layoffs, not just temporary furloughs.

This shutdown is the 15th since 1981, and according to Senate Majority Leader John Thune, it could continue on until next week as the two sides negotiate. The longest government shutdown happened between 2018 and 2019, during Trump’s first presidency, and lasted for 35 days.

Part of the reason market watchers see this shutdown as significant is that it will delay the release of the latest nonfarm payrolls report, which was set to come out on Friday (October 3).

Depending on how long the shutdown lasts, September consumer price index data, which is scheduled for publication on October 15, may also not be on time.

The US Federal Reserve is due to meet later this month, from October 28 to 29, and normally would use this and other data to help make its decision on interest rates. The central bank cut rates by 25 basis points at its September meeting, and CME Group’s (NASDAQ:CME) FedWatch tool currently shows strong expectations for another 25 basis point reduction at the next gathering.

Although gold took a breather after nearing US$3,900, it remains historically high, with many market watchers suggesting US$4,000 is in the cards in the near term.

In the longer term, some experts have even loftier expectations — for example, Adam Rozencwajg of Goehring & Rozenwajg sees a path to a five-figure gold price.

‘It’s not going to happen under normal circumstances — it’s not going to happen when everything’s going great. But by the end of this cycle, will we get there? I think we probably will,’ he said.

It’s also worth touching on silver, which pushed past the US$48 per ounce mark this week. Unlike gold, silver has not yet broken its all-time high during this bull run — it’s pushing up against uncharted territory, raising questions about how high it can go this time.

On that note, David Morgan of the Morgan Report shared several factors that would tell him the market is reaching a top. Here’s what he said:

‘You want to look at exchange-traded fund flows like the GDX, GDXJ, SIL and SILJ. At the same time, more important than almost anything is trading volume at the stock level. When mid-tier and smaller producers suddenly trade three, four or five times their normal daily volume, and prices are rising, that isn’t random. That’s retail money coming back into the market, and fund buying and probably institutions.

‘One more layer of confirmation is relative to performance. When the mining sector starts to outperform the S&P 500 (INDEXSP:.INX), which it has, and the Nasdaq (INDEXNASDAQ:.IXIC), which it has, it’s a telltale sign that the generalist money, not just the hard money crowd, is beginning to rotate in.’

Bullet briefing — CEO shakeup at Barrick, Newmont

Barrick Mining (TSX:ABX,NYSE:B) and Newmont (NYSE:NEM,ASX:NEM) both announced major executive changes this week, with the CEOs of both companies departing.

Barrick’s Mark Bristow unexpectedly stepped down from his position on Monday (September 29) after nearly seven years at the helm of the firn. His exit, which was effective immediately, comes after big changes at the firm, including a shift toward copper and an asset divestment program designed to hone the company’s focus on tier-one assets.

It also follows persistent issues in Mali, where Barrick lost control of its gold-mining complex and had 3 metric tons of the yellow metal seized by the government.

According to Reuters, Bristow’s handling of that ongoing situation was the final straw that prompted the company’s board to push for a change in leadership.

Newmont announced the retirement of Tom Palmer the same day. He had held the position since 2019, and will be succeeded by the company’s president and COO. Analysts note that Newmont had been signaling that a succession plan was in the works.

Similar to Barrick, the company has been in the midst of an extensive program geared at streamlining its portfolio. Newmont acquired Newcrest Mining in 2023, and in February 2024 announced a program to sell non-core assets. It completed the program in April of this year, but has continued to make portfolio adjustments, and to pursue other cost-saving measures.

Market watchers note that despite efforts to boost efficiency, Barrick and Newmont have both failed to match the performance of their peers during today’s bull market.

With gold-mining companies conscious of not repeating missteps made during the precious metal’s last runup, investors will no doubt be keen to see how they perform under new management.

The big news impacting markets this week is the shutdown of the US government.

While lawmakers were trying to find a funding solution, Democratic and Republican lawmakers were at loggerheads over maintaining funding for Medicaid programs. It marks the first time in seven years that the government has been shut down — the last time came during negotiations over the disputed US-Mexico border wall in December 2018.

President Donald Trump has resolved to use the closure to push through the firing of thousands of federal government employees and cut funding to projects promised by Democrats.

Additionally, the jobs report, scheduled for release on Friday (October 3), was delayed, causing greater uncertainty for analysts and investors who were trying to gauge the strength of the economy in September.

Despite the lack of official government data, payroll processor ADP reported a loss of 32,000 jobs in September. The decline represents a significant difference from the 45,000 jobs analysts had expected to be added.

Lawmakers aren’t scheduled to return to the negotiating tables until early next week.

FAQs for Canadian mining stocks

What is the difference between the TSX and TSXV?

The TSX, or Toronto Stock Exchange, is used by senior companies with larger market caps, and the TSXV, or TSX Venture Exchange, is used by smaller-cap companies. Companies listed on the TSXV can graduate to the senior exchange.

How many mining companies are listed on the TSX and TSXV?

As of May 2025, there were 1,565 companies listed on the TSXV, 910 of which were mining companies. Comparatively, the TSX was home to 1,899 companies, with 181 of those being mining companies.

Together, the TSX and TSXV host around 40 percent of the world’s public mining companies.

How much does it cost to list on the TSXV?

There are a variety of different fees that companies must pay to list on the TSXV, and according to the exchange, they can vary based on the transaction’s nature and complexity. The listing fee alone will most likely cost between C$10,000 to C$70,000. Accounting and auditing fees could rack up between C$25,000 and C$100,000, while legal fees are expected to be over C$75,000 and an underwriters’ commission may hit up to 12 percent.

The exchange lists a handful of other fees and expenses companies can expect, including but not limited to security commission and transfer agency fees, investor relations costs and director and officer liability insurance.

These are all just for the initial listing, of course. There are ongoing expenses once companies are trading, such as sustaining fees and additional listing fees, plus the costs associated with filing regular reports.

How do you trade on the TSXV?

Investors can trade on the TSXV the way they would trade stocks on any exchange. This means they can use a stock broker or an individual investment account to buy and sell shares of TSXV-listed companies during the exchange’s trading hours.

Vancouver, British Columbia TheNewswire – October 2, 2025 – Stellar AfricaGold Inc. (TSX-V: SPX) (‘Stellar’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to report significant assay results from its first drill hole at the Tichka Est G old P roject, part of the ongoing 1,500-meters summer diamond drill program at the Zone B gold discovery, an area of approximately one square kilometer within Stellar’s 82km 2 permit area in Morocco.

Highlights

  • First Drill Hole TCK-001 intersected13 meters of 6.12 g/t Au including 2 meters of 22.28 g/t Au , and
    • 16 meters of 1.98 g/t Au including 1 meter of 11.55 g/t Au
    • Mineralisation is mainly hosted in sub-horizontal diorite sills , confirming continuity of favorable lithology.
  • A total of 492.8 meters of diamond core drilled to date across three holes in Zone B. One drill rig currently operating, with drilling progress averaging approximately 10.5 meters of diamond core per day.

(Composite interval s include 0.1g/t Au cut-off & maximum internal dilution of 3m.)

Detail of Results

Diamond drill hole TCK-001 was designed to test the interpreted mineralized sub-horizontal diorite sills, which act as both lithological and structural controls to gold mineralization.

Two well-defined mineralized zones were intersected:

  • Within Diorite 1 between 83–99 meters: 16 m of 1.98 g/t Au , including 1 m of 11.55 g/t Au
  • Within Diorite 2 between 125–138 meters: 13 m of 6.12 g/t Au , including 2 m of 22.28 g/t Au
  • Within Diorite 3 the mineralization encountered in previous surface trenching of the third diorite zone was not encountered in drill hole TCK-001 consistent with the absence of veining or fracturing in the core.

These intersections support the geological model developed for Tichka Est Zone B and provide strong encouragement for expansion of the drilling program.

Operations Update

Diamond d rilling has now totaled 492.8 meters across three holes , with core from holes TCK-002 and TCK-003 confirming the presence of the sulphide-bearing sub-horizontal diorite sills previously encountered in hole TCK-001.

Drilling is progressing at an average rate of approximately 10.5 meters per day. Recently progress was temporarily hampered by fractured zones down hole requiring cementing to reduce water loss, on site water supply logistics, and weather-related impacts requiring repairs to roads and drill platforms. Despite these operational challenges, drilling continues steadily, with excellent core recoveries achieved.

Next Steps

  • Continue drilling the planned 1500-meters diamond drill program to test lateral continuity and down-dip extensions of sulphide-bearing sub-horizontal diorite sills, and
  • Update geological, structural, and alteration models with new data.
  • Continue reconnaissance exploration throughout the Tichka Est Gold Project 82 km permits area.

Management Commentary

‘Drill hole TCK-001 at Tichka Est has confirmed the presence of a very promising gold system,’ said J. François Lalonde, President and CEO of Stellar AfricaGold. ‘With mineralization now confirmed at depth, we are becoming increasing confident in the potential of the Tichka Est Gold Project and are excited to expand both our current drilling program to test continuity of mineralization and additional new targets as we advance the Zone B gold discovery. Additionally, our surface reconnaissance exploration of the numerous other areas of interest within the 82km 2 permit area of Tichka Est will continue.’

‘Alongside these exciting results, Stellar wishes to announce the relaunch of our Company newsletter . The revamped newsletter aims to keep stakeholders and shareholders informed with transparent, timely updates. Subscribe here to be the first to receive corporate updates, press releases, and third-party media coverage as it breaks.’

About the Tichka Est Zone B Gold Discovery

The identified Zone B structures are within an approximately 1 km2 area of the 82 km2 total area of the Tichka Est Gold Project. To date, Stellar has built an 8.5-kilometer mountain access road and conducted extensive mapping, sampling and trenching focussing on the regions in and around Zone B. Thus far three significant zones of gold mineralization have been discovered with much of the overall Tichka Est project area still unexplored or only superficially examined.

At the Zone B several programs of mechanical and hand trenches delivered a series of impressive assay results including trenches MT1 3.5 g/t gold over 155.7 meters 1 , MT2 1.52 g/t gold over 39.7 meters and 1.58 g/t Au over 8.6 meters 4 , MT3 1.27 g/t gold over 80 meters 4 , T7B 3.4 g/t gold over 20 meters 3 , T6B 3.4 g/t gold over 17 meters 3 , and T2B 4.56 g/t gold over 15 meters 2 . Zone B is the primary exploration target for 2025 although Stellar will continue reconnaissance exploration throughout the Tichka Est Gold Project permits area.

Technical Disclosure

The drilling campaign at Tichka Est is being conducted by two geologists from the African Bureau of Mining Consultants, under the supervision of Mr. Yassine Belkabir.

Diamond drilling was conducted using HQ diameter core. Core runs were retrieved every 3.0 m or less, with recovery measured and recorded for each run. Average recovery in reported intervals exceeded 99%. Core was oriented with a Reflex ACT III tool, photographed (wet and dry), and logged for lithology, alteration, mineralization, and structure.

Sampling intervals for assay were typically one metre in length, defined by geological boundaries. Core was cut with a diamond saw, half-core archived, and half-core submitted for analysis.

Sample preparation and assaying were performed by Afrilab in Marrakech , an ISO-certified laboratory independent of the Company. Samples were crushed to 70% passing 2 mm, split to 250 g, and pulverized to 85% passing 75 μm. Gold assays were performed using 50 g fire assay with an atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) finish . Over-limit assays (>5 g/t Au) were re-assayed with gravimetric finish.

QA/QC program consisted of 8 reference materials (standards) and 8 blanks inserted by geologists at regular intervals. In addition, Laboratory QA/QC protocols included internal blanks, standards, and duplicates, with performance reported to the exploration team for independent review. No material QA/QC issues were noted in the batches reported.

ACG announces that the net smelter return royalty agreement dated 17 July 2019 (the ‘Royalty Agreement‘) originally entered into between Lidya Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. (which assigned its interest to ACG Holdco 1 Limited), Polimetal Madencilik Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. (‘Polimetal‘) and Alacer Gold Madencilik A.Ş (which assigned its interest to EMX Royalty Corporation (‘EMX‘)) in respect of production at the Gediktepe mine was amended and restated (the ‘Amended Royalty Agreement‘) on 30 September 2025. The amendment is the result of a consensual agreement with EMX on terms that are mutually beneficial to all parties.

Under the terms of the Amended Royalty Agreement and related documents:

  • With effect from 1 January 2026, the terms of the oxide and sulphide royalties have been simplified, with the oxide royalty percentage being decreased from 10% to 2.25% and the sulphide royalty percentage being increased from 2% to 2.25% on all sulphide production.
  • Each of ACG and Polimetal has been released from its obligations to make certain milestone payments (the ‘Milestone Payments‘) linked to the commencement of sulphide commercial production at the Gediktepe mine (in an aggregate amount of US$ 6 million) to EMX in 2026.

The adjustment to the royalty terms will provide substantial benefits to the group as it forges ahead with the transition from oxide to sulphide production at the Gediktepe mine. In particular:

  • The amendments to the Royalty Agreement should result in a significant reduction in all in sustaining costs (AISC) on the remaining oxide ore produced at the Gediktepe mine from 2026.
  • The reduction in the high oxide royalty percentage and release of the obligation to make the Milestone Payments should considerably strengthen the group’s short term cash flows and enable it to increase its cash buffer in 2026 while the Gediktepe mine transition is completed.
  • The royalty percentage applicable to any future oxide production following a potential LOM extension at Gediktepe will decrease from 10% to 2.25%.

Patrick Henze, Chief Financial Officer of ACG said:

We are very pleased to have completed the process of amending our royalty arrangements with EMX and believe that the amended royalty terms leave us well positioned to navigate the transition from oxide to sulphide production in the near term. We are thankful to EMX for its constructive and collaborative approach during this process and look forward to continuing our mutually beneficial partnership.’

Surface work confirms Cu-Mo-Au mineralization, classic porphyry type style-alteration, and active gold workings, reinforcing district-scale upside at Quimbaya’s flagship project in Colombia.

NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWS WIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES

Quimbaya Gold Inc. (CSE: QIM,OTC:QIMGF) (OTCQB: QIMGF) (FSE: K05) (‘Quimbaya’ or the ‘Company’) is pleased to report the identification of a large, multi-kilometer Cu-Mo-Au porphyry-style target at surface within its 100%-owned Tahami Center Project in Antioquia, Colombia. Located approximately 2.5 kilometers northeast of the Company’s active drill program at Tahami South, the target spans a 2.0 by 1.4-kilometer footprint and exhibits hallmark porphyry characteristics confirmed by surface mapping, mineralogy, and geochemical anomalies.

Importantly, multiple artisanal gold workings are active within the footprint, confirming near-surface gold mineralization and reinforcing the system’s potential as a preserved porphyry system with a vertically zoned epithermal overprint.

Key Highlights

  • Large Surface Footprint: 2.0 km x 1.4 km target with preliminary mapped porphyry-style alteration and veinlets.
  • High-Sulfidation Epithermal Overprint: Presence of a preserved lithocap with advanced argillic alteration (alunite-pyrophyllite-dickite-kaolinite) confirms a high-sulfidation system at surface. These environments are globally recognized for hosting high-grade gold zones and often occur above or adjacent to copper-gold-molybdenum porphyry systems, supporting the interpretation of a vertically zoned, mineralized system.
  • Complete Porphyry Signature: Potassic (biotite-magnetite), quartz-sericitic and advanced argillic zones confirmed by Terraspec analysis.
  • Veinlet Suite: Full porphyry veinlet sequence (A, M, EB, B, D) identified across multiple stations.
  • Surface Mineralization: Copper oxides, molybdenite, chalcocite, chalcopyrite and copper sulfates (chalcanthite, brochantite) observed in outcrops.
  • Preliminary Geochemistry: Preliminary rock channels with 2.10m @ 0.12% Cu, 301 ppm Mo, 0.10 g/t Au; stream sediments return up to 304.5 ppm Cu, 66 ppm Mo, 0.29 g/t Au, and gold in pan.
  • Strategic Location: Within the same corridor as Aris Mining’s Segovia operations and just 2.5 km from Quimbaya’s current drill pads.

‘This kind of result doesn’t come as a surprise, it’s the outcome of years spent assembling a high-quality portfolio in a region we know well,’ said Alexandre P. Boivin, CEO of Quimbaya Gold.

‘What we’re seeing at surface, including artisanal mining within the footprint, is a direct reflection of the geological potential we believed was there from the beginning. The fact that it’s so close to where we’re actively drilling at Tahami South makes it a natural extension of our exploration work and a testament to the strength of the entire Quimbaya team.’

Contextual Significance

Colombia is globally recognized for its high-grade epithermal gold veins, particularly in the Segovia belt, but porphyry systems, especially those with Cu-Mo-Au potential, remain one of the country’s most underexplored geological domains. The scale, preservation, and surface expression of the mineralized system at Tahami suggest a rare geological setting with clear exploration potential. With one of the few consolidated land positions in the region, Quimbaya is well positioned to advance porphyry and high-sulfidation exploration in one of Colombia’s most productive gold districts.

Technical Overview

Surface mapping and geochemical sampling have delineated a porphyry type system consistent with preserved high-level mineralization.

  • Alteration Zonation:
    • Potassic Sodic: Biotite-magnetite ± Albite
    • Phyllic overprint: Quartz-sericite
    • Advanced argillic lithocap: Alunite-pyrophyllite-dickite-kaolinite, confirmed by Terraspec (Universidad Nacional de Colombia)
  • Veinlet Types:
    • A, M, EB, B, and D veinlets mapped, consistent with well-developed porphyry systems.
  • Mineralization Observations:
    • Chalcopyrite, chalcocite, molybdenite in outcrops
    • Secondary copper sulfates (chalcanthite, brochantite) at surface
    • Visible gold observed during stream sediment panning

‘Identifying a textbook porphyry system with visible copper and molybdenite at surface, and active gold extraction from epithermal veins strongly validates our district-scale model at Tahami,’ said Ricardo Sierra, VP Exploration of Quimbaya Gold. ‘The alteration zoning, veinlet architecture, and early geochemical signatures are highly consistent with porphyry copper systems globally.’
