Interview with Peter Dembicki, President & CEO of Tier One Silver

Recording date: 23rd March 2026

Tier One Silver (TSXV:TSLV) is advancing an early-stage precious metals discovery in southern Peru that has delivered some of the highest-grade rock sampling results seen in the region. The company's 100%-owned Curibaya project has returned silver grades up to 300,000 grams per ton and gold grades approaching one kilogram, with over 80 samples exceeding one kilogram per ton silver distributed across a five-square-kilometer footprint.

Led by President and CEO Peter Dembicki, a former Canaccord Genuity investment adviser, the company benefits from world-class technical expertise. Christian Rios, formerly with Bear Creek Mining and integral to the Santana Corani discovery, serves as Senior Vice President of Exploration, while Antonio Arribas, former global head of geosciences for BHP and Newmont, provides additional technical guidance.

The property emerged from the 2021 spin-out of Auryn Resources and was consolidated through opportunistic acquisitions when base metal prices declined. Located in southern Peru's copper belt near the city of Tacna, the approximately 14,000-hectare property had never been systematically explored despite being surrounded by major global copper-silver producers.

Following an initial 5,000-meter reconnaissance drilling program, the company engaged independent consultants who identified a key insight: higher-elevation areas within the property should preserve a more intact precious metals system due to less erosion over geological time. The current 1,200-meter drilling program is testing this thesis in the Cambaya corridor, where rock samples have returned eight kilograms per ton silver and four grams per ton gold.

An unexpected discovery during initial drilling revealed indicators of a potential large porphyry copper system at depth, attracting attention from major mining companies seeking the next significant discovery in Peru's porphyry belt.

After operating through five years of challenging silver prices ranging from $17-22 per ounce, the company raised approximately $6.5 million in late 2025 as silver strengthened above $70. Management estimates requiring another 10,000 meters of drilling before resource definition, with six kilometers of identified vein corridors providing multiple targets. The company's strategy focuses entirely on discovery and resource definition rather than development, positioning for an eventual strategic transaction.

Interview with Justin van der Toorn, President & CEO of Greenheart Gold Inc.

Recording date: 25th March 2026

Greenheart Gold (TSXV:GHRT) is executing a comprehensive exploration strategy across the Guyana Shield, with President and CEO Justin van der Toorn advancing multiple high-potential gold projects in Suriname and Guyana. The company's disciplined approach to early-stage exploration, combined with an experienced management team and strategic portfolio management, positions it to make discoveries in one of the world's most underexplored yet geologically prospective gold regions.

The company currently operates three advanced projects in Suriname—Majorodam, Igab, and Tosso Creek—each at different stages of development. At Majorodam, a 10,000-meter reverse circulation drilling program is underway testing a 15-kilometer gold-in-soil anomaly. The cost-effective RC approach allows rapid coverage of the entire trend at approximately 50-60% of diamond drilling expenses, with holes targeting near-surface mineralization before following higher-grade zones to depth.

The Igab project has emerged as a high-priority target following exceptional trenching results of 12 meters at 4.82 g/t and 11 meters at 9 g/t gold. Diamond drilling commences in April 2026 to establish detailed structural understanding of these high-grade shear zones. Located 30 kilometers south of Newmont's Merian operation, Igab benefits from proximity to established infrastructure and geological context.

Tosso Creek represents bulk tonnage potential with 86 meters at 0.6 g/t gold in trenching. Additional trenching is underway to refine targets before drilling in Q2 2026.

Greenheart's management team brings proven credentials from Reunion Gold's Oko discovery in Guyana, which ultimately attracted a takeover. The company maintains capital discipline through its willingness to drop non-performing projects while preserving treasury strength for aggressive multi-project exploration. "We're explorers, that's what we think we're good at," Justin emphasized.

With multiple drilling programs advancing simultaneously throughout 2026, Greenheart is positioned to deliver continuous newsflow while targeting tier-one discoveries in the underexplored Guyana Shield. The company's strategy focuses on demonstrating meaningful intercepts with both grade and volume to establish mineable potential across its portfolio.

Interview with Phil Hoskins, CEO of Atomic Eagle

Recording date: 24th March 2026

Atomic Eagle (ASX:AEU) is advancing the Muntanga uranium project in Zambia with an aggressive resource expansion strategy designed to unlock economies of scale. Led by CEO Phil Hoskins and backed by the founders of Boss Energy and Lotus Resources - both now uranium producers - the company has assembled experienced uranium development expertise to grow a technically proven asset in a tier-one African jurisdiction.

The Muntanga project stands on solid ground with a completed NI 43-101 feasibility study and a recently expanded resource of 58.8 million pounds at 309 ppm. What distinguishes this deposit is exceptional metallurgical characteristics: over 90% recoveries, 21-day leach kinetics, and remarkably low acid consumption of just 20 kilograms per ton. These parameters signal favorable economics to experienced developers, though the previous operator's study at 2.2 million pounds per annum production showed insufficient scale to generate attractive returns.

Atomic Eagle's solution centers on resource growth. The largest drill program at Muntanga since 2007 launches in April 2026, targeting over 50,000 meters across 10 discrete targets using cost-effective gamma-probe technology at $45 per meter. The company aims to grow resources toward 100+ million pounds to support 4-5 million pounds per annum production by circa 2030, comparable to Bannerman Resources' development model. Current resources, if fully incorporated into a revised mine plan, could already support 3.9 million pounds annually for 12 years.

With $19 million in treasury, Atomic Eagle is well-funded to execute its 2026 exploration program and 2027 updated feasibility study. Zambia offers significant jurisdictional advantages: no free carried government interest, established mining infrastructure as the world's seventh-largest copper producer, and Fraser Institute-validated regulatory stability.

Additional upside exists through a 116 million pound Niger asset (1,300 ppm grade) currently assigned zero market value. Active negotiations are progressing to return this asset under new terms, with an update expected in the first half of 2026. Recent roadshow feedback confirmed that investors view Atomic Eagle as undervalued based solely on the Zambian asset, positioning the company as a focused development play rather than a speculative exploration play in an increasingly strategic uranium market.
