Coming up we'll hear a fantastic interview with Keith Neumeyer, CEO of First Majestic Silver Corp. (NYSE:AG). Keith gives an insider's take on the tremendous and unsustainable imbalance that exists between the available mine supply of silver compared to gold and what it likely means for the silver to gold ratio. And you'll definitely want to hear Keith's long-term price target for the white metal, which may surprise you. Don't miss my conversation with Keith Neumeyer coming up after this week's market update..
Ein neues Interview von einem der schillerndsten Persönlichkeiten der Welt - wie immer sehr lesenswert - credit to The Atlantic: ‘We Need an Energy Miracle’
Bill Gates has committed his fortune to moving the world beyond fossil fuels and mitigating climate change..
Tekoa Da Silva recently sat down with serial entrepreneur Ross Beaty, founder of Pan American Silver and Alterra Power.
Mr. Beaty is a legendary investor in the resource sector. He made his fortune buying up mineral assets in depressed markets and selling them years later at hefty premiums.
Is Mr. Beaty still confident you can make money buying undervalued assets in the resource sector during periods of depressed metals prices?
Tekoa asked him how the current market compared to past bear markets in resources and precious metals, and what he’d be doing today as an investor.

One thing is for sure the junior mining market continues to struggle as we have had four consecutive down years on the TSX Venture (2011-2014) and 2015 is not off to a promising start. Legendary mining financier and company builder Ross Beaty has been one of the few who is actively putting money to work and buying positions in junior companies.
Today we found out his latest public investment in a junior when Arena Minerals(AN:TSXV) announced a $1.5 million dollar financing. Inside the press release Arena announced that Mr. Beaty and his associated parties would be subscribing for $1 million dollars of the $1.5 million placement. Upon successful closing Mr. Beaty will hold approximately 12% of the issued shares of Arena.
Shares of Arena shot up 5 cents (43%) to close at $0.165 cents on the news. It shows Mr. Beaty has a strong following even in these quiet markets and investors are eager to invest alongside him. The rest of the private placement will have no trouble filling now if it is not already spoken for. I remember listening to several interviews with Rick Rule of Sprott in the last couple years where he refers to Ross as a “broken slot machine” because his investors are rewarded with big pay days so frequently.
I took a quick look at Arena and noticed they are a prospect generator focused on working in Chile. The flagship Atacama Copper property is located in the heart of the Antofagasta mining region which is well known for copper deposits. Arena has an option to acquire 80% of the early stage project. Other projects include Pampas El Penon which partially surrounds Yamana Gold’s El Penon mine. Arena has also recently optioned off two projects to B2Gold.
Once the news hit the wires CEO.ca live members were already chatting about what other companies Mr. Beaty is invested in. The following is a list of companies brought up in the chat. (Note: No guarantees Mr. Beaty is still invested in any of these companies. Please do your own due dilligence).

Hörenswertes Interview mit dem Uran-Experten und Chef von Uranium Energy (NYE:UEC):
Concern Over Carbon Emissions Will Drive Uranium Prices Higher
Demand for uranium is rising as Japan restarts its nuclear reactors and U.S. utilities step up their purchases, said Amir Adnani, CEO of Uranium Energy Corp. Adnani added that uranium prices, now around $40, could rise as high as $50 by the end of 2015. He said China will be a big buyer considering that it is building nearly 30 new nuclear plants. Adnani said concern over carbon emissions and climate change are causing renewed momentum in nuclear energy. Finally, Adnani said Uranium Energy Corp. is a low cost provider that does not hedge so it will have a big market opportunity as the price rises..

Calibre Mining gehört
zu den ganz wenigen Goldaktien weltweit, die trotz des Einbruchs im
Goldminensektor in den letzten Wochen, eine herausragende Performance abgab.
Der Junior-Goldexplorer CalibreMining (TSX-V:CXB) schreitet mit
großen Schritten in der aufstrebenden Goldminennation von Nicaragua voran. Die
Explorations- und Bohrprogramme laufen nach Vorstellung und lieferten auch in
den letzten Wochen starke Ergebnisse.
Sehen Sie z.B. die News vom 24. September, in der Calibre
eine weitere Entdeckung von hochgradigen Goldmineralisierungen bekanntgab: Calibre Mining Announces Additional
Drilling Results at the Eastern Borosi Gold-Silver Project, Nicaragua,
including 6.5 Metres Grading 16.9 g/t Gold, Link: http://www.calibremining.com/s/News.asp?ReportID=675655
Die starken Resultate in der Projektexploration und die noch
besseren Aussichten auf die Entdeckung hochgradiger Goldvorkommen mit guter Qualität, kurbeln das Interesse an Calibre Mining seit vielen Monaten an. Nicht
ohne Grund sind Goldproduzenten wie B2Gold
Corp. und IAMGOLD als
Projektpartner bereits eingestiegen und investieren zweistellige
Millionensummen in die Exploration.
Mit dem Einstieg von
Branchenlegende Pierre Lassonde
(Gründer und Chairman von Franco-Nevada),
der rund 11% an Calibre mit einer strategischen Finanzierung in Höhe von 2 Mio.
CAD übernahm, hat sich das Interesse an der aussichtsreichen Gold-Story
nochmals schlagartig erhöht.
Die Entwicklung von Calibre's Aktienkurs ist im Vergleich zum Goldminen-Sektor in diesen Tagen eine wahre Augenweide:
Quelle: bigcharts.com
Folgend mein jüngstes Interview mit dem Chairman von Calibre
Mining, Douglas Forster:
Oliver
Gross (OG): Long story short. What are Calibre’s current investment highlights?
Douglas
Forster (DF): Calibre has partnered
with well-known mid-tier producing gold companies, B2Gold and now recently IAMGOLD.
Each partner is currently active and is
spending significant capital to earn-in respective optioned concessions located
in the prolific past producing Mining Triangle of Nicaragua. B2Gold,
Nicaragua’s largest gold producer and Calibre Mining have a (51%/49%) joint
venture.
Calibre
has granted B2Gold an option to increase their project ownership from 51% to
70% interest by spending an additional $6M. B2Gold has also recently increased
their corporate share ownership in Calibre from 10% to 15.2%. B2Gold
is very active on the property with a new gold discovery at the bulk tonnage
gold target, Minnesota Gold Project where trench results have returned 62m
grading 1.76g/t gold. With continued
success Calibre expects a drilling decision and anticipates B2Gold will elect
to drill this target before the end of the year.
IAMGOLD
executed an option agreement on adjacent concessions with Calibre in May 2014
to earn a 51% interest by spending $5M over 3 years with an additional option
to increase to 70% interest by spending another $5M over 3 years. Each option also comes with $450,000 in cash
payments to Calibre.
IAMGOLD
has already initiated a 3400 metre diamond drilling program and the first
results returned 4.8m grading 25.7g/t gold and 6.0m grading 14g/t gold.
OG: Why
should investors buy Calibre now?
DF: Calibre has two very active partners with
potential for significant discovery and both of these, as well as our 100%
owned project, are expected to generate further news flow in 2014. B2Gold is targeting bulk tonnage mineralization
on the Minnesota Gold Project where they are actively trenching and auger
drilling a 1.75km x 1.25km gold in soil anomaly following-up on the initial
discovery trench of 62m grading 1.76g/t gold.
IAMGOLD
is completing a 3,400m diamond drilling program targeting a series of well
defined structural targets with initial results returning 4.8m grading 25g/t
gold and 6.0m grading 14g/t gold. President and CEO, Greg Smith states: “This is a very encouraging start
to the drilling program on the Eastern Borosi Project. Drilling has intersected the mineralized structure
in every drill hole and this first set of assay results includes a number of
high-grade gold intercepts. The drilling
program is progressing on schedule and on budget and additional assay results
will be released when available”.
In
addition, Calibre has a large 100% owned land package with a discovery at the
Montes De Oro gold project where the company has identified a 400m by 650m
anomaly which includes trenches grading 52m at 7.0g/t gold, 27m at 4.9g/t gold
and 33m at 2.1g/t gold. This is a high
priority drill ready target and Calibre is now evaluating options including the
possibility of bringing on another well funded partner.
OG: What can we expect in view of news flow
and progress during the next months?
DF: Calibre and our partners continue to
explore and build on recent discoveries on the Borosi Concessions. This mineral rich district remains
under-explored and has excellent potential for additional gold-silver-copper discoveries.
We expect additional diamond drilling results
from IAMGOLD for the remainder of the Phase I, 3,400 meter, program. B2Gold contunes to advance the Minnesota Gold
Project and we can expect additional trench results and with contriunued
success a drilling decision. Calibre
will be making a decision on how to advance the 100% owned Montes De Oro either
bringing in another new partner or potentially working on the project
ourselves. On-going work at Montes de
Oro includes additional rock sampling and a ground magnetic survey.
OG: Why is Nicaragua a lucrative and save
place to invest?
DF: Nicaragua has a very long mining history
with a strong mining law and pro-mining investment climate. Nicaragua is rated the safest country in
Central America with modern infrastructure. Calibre’s partner B2Gold is one of the major
employers in Nicaragua and is the largest exporter of gold. Finally, from a geological perspective
Nicaragua is one of the most prospective and prolific regions which is now
attracting significant foreign investment from well-known producing gold
companies. The country remains extremely
underexplored.
OG: Junior gold market YTD- the situation for
the most gold companies remains very challenging and your stock is trading near
the 52 weeks high resulted by your strong progress during FY2014. When do you
guess we will see a stronger recovery and how/why will Calibre benefit?
DF: We believe we have adapted appropriately
to the market conditions by partnering our projects with well-known, cash flow
positive mid-tier gold companies. This stategy
has reduced our burn rate ensuring that Calibre will have minimal share
dilution while continuing to advance our projects. Our partners remain confidently optimistic
about the geological potential and are therefore spending significant capital
which provides good news flow for the investors.
We
anticipate markets to remain volatile for several months, however the companies
that have low overhead and active programs with new discoveries will be the
ones that will reap the immediate benefits. We anticipate the junior market to begin its
recovery once gold prices start to break through $1300 and the macro landscape
for hard assets firming up. Once this
begins Calibre will benefit from having significantly advanced projects in a
safe jurisdiction with well-known partners spending capital and creating
exciting news flow.
OG:
Please give us some more insights into
your first-class investor base and your strong story supporters.
DF: First and foremost management is a
significant investor with approximately 10% ownership. Our partner B2Gold not only has an active
program underway on the ground within a joint venture structure but also now
owns 15.2% after recently increasing their equity position over the past few
months. In addition we have significant
institutional ownership and coverage with well-known analysts including
Exploration Insights (Brent Cook) following the company.
Calibre Mining mit Meilenstein-News:
Branchen-Legende Pierre Lassonde kommt an Bord
Der legendäre Branchen-Guru,
Top-Entrepreneur und Drahtzieher von etlichen Erfolgs-Stories - Mr.Pierre Lassonde- kauft sich in Gold-ExplorerCalibre Mining(TSX-V:CXB) ein, der seine Goldprojekte im Mittelamerika-Staat Nicaragua

New York City (Kitco News) - There is a reason to hold gold but patience is a virtue, said Frank Giustra, renowned resource investor and co-founder of the Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership.
"All the reasons why gold went to $2,000 in the first place are still there, and in spades," he said during an interview with Kitco News’ Daniela Cambone at the Clinton Global Initiative annual meeting on Tuesday.
Gold is currently stuck in a 'no one cares phase' but his views on the metal remain unchanged he said on the sidelines of the annual meeting in New York.
"Nothing has changed fundamentally to tell me in any way that one should divest of their gold position," he said. "I just think you have to have some gold in your portfolio because currencies are being devalued by money printing worldwide."
Frank Giustra, co-founder of the Clinton Giustra Enterprise Partnership and CEO of Fiore Financial talks with Kitco News during the 10th annual Clinton Global Initiative annual meeting, in New York City.
Looking ahead, Giustra, who is also the CEO of Fiore Financial, said that he does not expect to see a robust U.S. economy once the Federal Reserve ends its quantitative easing program. Last week, following the Federal Open Market Committee Meeting, Fed Chair Janet Yellen confirmed that central bank intends to end its monthly bond-purchase program in October.
"I think the accommodative policy that's been in place for a number of years now is going to have to continue in some fashion, and that's always good for gold," Giustra argued.
Catching the Canadian investor's attention these days are the gold mining stocks.
"For many years I liked physical [gold]," he said. "But now, what's happened in the last couple of years with this very severe bear market in the mining sector is that the gold stocks are becoming much more interesting," said Giustra who also serves as an advisor for Endeavour Mining.
Giustra, remains optimistic for gold, ending off the interview with one clear message:
"I think we're in the middle of a very long-term bull market in gold […] the situation hasn't improved, in many cases it's gotten much worse, so there is a reason to hold your gold.."
Henry Bonner @ Sprott Thoughts mit den neusten und wie immer lesenswerte Zeilen von und über Frank Giustra.
Frank Giustra: I Was Early But I'm Still Buying
Sprott's Thoughts - Friday, September 19, 2014 - Henry Bonner-
A few weeks ago, we heard from Pierre Lassonde of Franco-Nevada on the power of the royalty business model. Just recently, I spoke with another ‘superstar’ of the natural resource industry -- Frank Giustra.
Mr. Giustra started out as an assistant trader and then became a stockbroker at Merrill Lynch in his early career. He later went on to join Yorkton Securities, where he helped launch a new branch geared towards financing resource companies in Europe. He is now an advisor to major gold miner, Endeavour Mining Corporation.
As we discuss in this interview, he’s a serial entrepreneur. In the late 90’s, he founded Lionsgate Entertainment - the company behind The Hunger Games and Michael Moore’s Fahrenheit 9/11. The company had over $2 billion in revenue in 2013, and owns the rights to the hugely successful Twilight movie franchise and The Expendables series, among other big blockbuster titles.
Leaving movies for another day’s topic, we went on to discuss his views on the mining sector, though he did leave me with his quick take: “Making good movies is tough -- more an art than a science. It’s easy to get sucked into bad projects by people in the movie industry. You have to be on your guard.” Probably useful to remember when looking at small-cap mining stocks too.
“What’s your view, as an investor, on the resource market?” I asked.
“Wow, that’s a general question,” he laughed. Luckily, he indulged me with a response: “first off, the market does look like it’s past the bottom. Second, you still have time to implement a ‘simple’ contrarian strategy -- buy real, proven, assets cheaply and wait for them to be re-priced by the market.
“Many assets are on the market today that bear little risk to investors, but are trading well below their fair value because of the severity of the bear market. When an asset has already been studied and understood, analysts can come up with a good estimate for the value of the resource – a mineralized ore body – that is in the ground. In a very bad bear market, these assets trade cheaply – but it has nothing to do with the merits of the asset; it’s all about the market’s attitude towards resources. ‘Buy right, sit tight.’ Once you’ve bought the right assets, just wait for the market to re-value your asset higher.”
Can you buy safely, knowing the bottom is likely behind you?
Unfortunately, even for a veteran, serially successful investor like Mr. Giustra, you can get the call wrong:
“You can never pick absolute tops or absolute bottoms. Nobody can do that. I called the bottom a couple of years too early. What have I done about it? If you pick the bottom at the wrong time, and the market keeps getting cheaper, you can keep buying if you have the cash – but don’t ‘average down’ into bankruptcy. Your approach will depend on your financial situation. In 2013, I had the cash, so I averaged down.”
What about backing exploration companies that are looking for new deposits – the early-stage exploration juniors?
Mr. Giustra said the exploration stocks would be the last ones to rally in a recovery, so he was focusing on developed assets for now. When money begins to enter the resource sector, the first assets to go higher will be low-risk assets that have already been thoroughly explored and delineated. Those assets will get bought up by investors, or taken out by mining companies to get put into production.
“Exploration will have its day later in the cycle, but it’s just way too early for those companies for me,” he said.
What do you do after mining finance and major movie production? I asked whether there were any more major projects in the works.
“Yes,” he said, “for a long time, I’ve been interested in the healthy, natural food sector. I’m trying to tap into a new trend, which is especially popular among a younger generation. There’s demand for food that comes from ‘natural’ farming practices – not the feedlots and heavily industrialized agriculture that uses GMOs, pesticides, hormones and antibiotics. I’m involved in branding, packaging, production of these types of foods – I even started a magazine called Modern Farmer that’s geared towards people in this demographic.”
Mr. Giustra spent part of his childhood in Italy. Now, he owns an olive oil producer that makes olives in Italy and ships them to North America. His brand, called Domenica Fiore, was rated the top olive oil at a global competition in New York. And he ‘eats his own cooking’ – “I’ll use olive oil over butter any day,” he says. “So I make the best olive oil in the world. It’s my own little thing.”
The last subject we touched on was the state of the dollar and bonds, and whether he had any worries about the outlook for the US economy.
“I think that the general stock market, the dollar, and bonds are in for a severe correction,” he ventured. “If there’s one thing I’ve learned from my career it’s that there are consequences to economic decisions. At some point down the road, there will be consequences to massive money printing and bond-buying. For now, those consequences have not been very negative, but there are always adverse effects. There’s a downside, and I think we will experience that in the form of major economic disturbances going forward. Will it come in the form of hyperinflation? Depression? I don’t know. But there is a price to pay – and I think it’s going to be severe.”
Aufstrebende Story im kolumbianischen Ölsektor: Petroamerica Oil - Frank Giustra's Liebling bricht aus Geduld, Durchhaltevermögen und ein starker Fokus auf hohe Qualität inkl. starker Fundamental-Daten zahlen sich im Rohstoff- und Minensektor langfristig nahezu immer aus..

Quote #2: Royalty-Leader Franco-Nevada: Großer Gewinner der Krise in der Minenbranche sichert sich weitere Liquidität
Mit einer vollen Kriegskasse wird sich der Führer der aufstrebenden Royalty- und Streaming-Branche nach weiteren aussichtsreichen Deals in der Minen- und Juniorbranche umsehen..
Geduld, Durchhaltevermögen und ein starker Fokus auf hohe Qualität inkl. starker Fundamental-Daten zahlen sich im Rohstoff- und Minensektor langfristig nahezu immer aus.
Ganz besonders aber wenn es um eine Story geht, welche vom schillernden Erfolgs-Unternehmer Frank Giustra (Forbes-Profil) bedeutend unterstützt wird.
Eine weitere Gewinner-Story ist im kolumbianischen Ölsektor gerade am Entstehen und Frank ist hierbei signifikant seit längerer Zeit engagiert. Nun steht der erste große Ausbruch seit geraumer Zeit zur Buche, der auf die jüngste, erfolgreiche Übernahme von Suroco Energy (Juli) folgt.
Gemeint ist die Wachstums-Geschichte um Petroamerica Oil (TSX-V:PTA) und diese war, ist und bleibt Frank Giustra's aktueller "Big Bet" auf einen weiteren Aufwärtstrend im florierenden Öl- und Gas-Business des rohstoffreichen Südamerika-Staats.
Neben Petroamerica in Kolumbien setzt Giustra im Ölsektor gerade auf die Turnaround-Story um Petromanas Energy (TSX-V:PMI), die in Albanien in wesentlich schwierigeren "Fahrwassern" aktiv ist.
Wie so oft gilt vor allem in der zyklischen und hochvolatilen Rohstoff- und Minenbranche: Es ist ein harter und steiniger Weg zum Erfolg - aber das weiß Frank so gut wie kaum jemand - und genau diese eiserne Disziplin, seine eingefleischste "Contrarian-Rolle" und seine große Visionen zeichneten ihn immer besonders aus.
The Ups and Downs of Frank Giustra’s Oil Businesses

Accomplished natural resources investor Frank Giustra has two long term investments in the junior energy sector, Colombian focused Petroamerica Oil (PTA.v), and European focused Petromanas Energy (PMI.v).
Disclosure note, I own both of them.
In early trading Monday, one of these companies was climbing strongly, while the other was heading in the wrong direction.
Confirmed breakout for Petroamerica Oil (PTA.v)
We have tracked the Colombian focused Petroamerica for 2 years and a week on this blog, since its grown from 1500 boepd to 6000 +. With the acquisition of Suroco Energy in July, production was expected to climb to 9000 bopd+ on the way to 30k bopd, according to a Bloomberg article..
Selbst der Minenkonzern Minera Frisco (BMV.MFRISCO), der vom zweitreichsten Geschäftsmann und Mensch der Welt kontrolliert wird (Carlos Slim), reiht sich nun in die Liste der Unternehmen ein, die wegen Arbeitskonflikten und Auseinandersetzungen mit Gewerkschaften, lokalen Bevölkerungsgruppen, Communities etc., im edelmetallreichen Mexiko Minenoperationen einstellen müssen. Dass sogar die operativen Tätigkeiten von solch verwurzelten, einflussreichen und erfahrenen Konzernen wie Minera Frisco bedroht und lahmgelegt werden (Minenoperationen laufen seit 1913), zeigt wie ernst und heikel die Lage in einigen Regionen in der etablierten Minennation Mexiko (geworden) ist..
Labor Strife Closes 3 Mexican Mines Owned by Slim
Two big silver and gold mines and a copper mine owned by Carlos Slim, one of the world's richest men, have been closed by labor conflicts, the company said Monday..
In the year 2000, Swedish leadership magazine Chef interviewed oil and mineral tycoon Adolf Lundin (1932-2006) and he provided his five keys to entrepreneurial success:
1. Never give up!
2. Always follow rule number 1.
3. ”No pain, no gain” – which was written on a stone on his desk.
4. Forget hobbies and your own comfort.
5. Find good colleagues and let them share in the profits..
