  • The Sleeping Giant Awakens: Abcourt Mines' High-Grade Gold and the Future of Narrow-Vein Mining

    The Sleeping Giant Awakens: Abcourt Mines' High-Grade Gold and the Future of Narrow-Vein Mining
    Nov 6 2025
    In today’s episode, we're joined by Pascal Hamelin, President and CEO of Abcourt Mines, a Canadian gold producer and explorer with a strong footprint in Quebec. We’ll be discussing Abcourt’s flagship Sleeping Giant Mine, the company’s focus on narrow vein underground mining, and how innovation, automation, and community engagement are shaping its next phase of growth. Pascal is also going to be attending the upcoming Resourcing Tomorrow event - the premier gathering for the world’s mining leaders taking place in London from 2-4 December. What sets this event apart is its unmatched audience: C-level executives from the biggest mining companies worldwide, over 40 government ministers, leading mining technology providers, and more. Dig Deep The Mining Podcast is proud to partner with Resourcing Tomorrow so to register, go to https://hubs.ly/Q03JvH2K0 and use DIGDEEP10 for 10% off your pass. KEY TAKEAWAYS The company, originally focused on zinc, shifted to gold assets in Northern Quebec in the mid-2000s, leveraging its ownership of the Elder Mine and eventually acquiring the high-grade Sleeping Giant Mine and Mill in 2016. Abcourt secured financing in mid-2025 to restart the Sleeping Giant Mine, which boasts historically high-grade, narrow-vein underground gold (averaging 10.3 grams/tonne G/T) The company champions narrow-vein underground mining to minimise waste and surface disruption, a model with higher social acceptability Abcourt sees significant deep exploration potential at Sleeping Giant, believing the high-grade deposit extends to greater depths where "no one drilled yet" BEST MOMENTS "The main focus and why I came in was to actually start the Sleeping Giant Mine." "The issue we have with mining that narrow is the equipment is not there... I believe that the advancement of technology right now is going at full speed." "The belief is there's a giant at depth. And no one drilled at depth yet... So we're just scratching the surface on that deposit." "If you have an underground narrow-vein mine with 200 employees, 300 employees, with a 20, 30-year life – that's what people like."

  • Reviving Copper Mountain: Uranium, AI, and the Domestic Supply Chain with Tom Lamb

    Reviving Copper Mountain: Uranium, AI, and the Domestic Supply Chain with Tom Lamb
    Nov 3 2025
    Joining us today is Thomas Lamb, CEO of Myriad Uranium, who are breathing new life into the historic Copper Mountain District in Wyoming, a project first drilled by Union Pacific in the 1970s, but now being revived with modern tech, modern exploration thinking, and at a time when the U.S. urgently needs domestic uranium. We’re going to discuss what that actually means on the ground, how Myriad is modernising decades-old data, and whether AI is truly moving the needle in exploration… or still mostly buzz. KEY TAKEAWAYS New chemical assays on historical drill samples are revealing 60% higher grades of uranium than originally detected by the 1970s probe technology, which has the potential to transform the project's volume and grade. Tom highlights the danger of "analysis paralysis" in junior mining, suggesting that a lack of industry specialisation can sometimes lead to a bolder, more successful entrepreneurial path. The recent ban on Russian uranium imports and geopolitical factors are creating an urgent push to rebuild a domestic U.S. uranium industry This is perfectly positioning companies like Myriad Uranium, operating in the mining-friendly state of Wyoming, for massive growth. BEST MOMENTS "We have now a chance to do something special here... The high-grade uranium and significant volumes of it probably sits in these near-vertical faults instead of in a band of low-grade uranium kind of near surface." "The AI is absolutely incredible at inhaling [geochemical data] and delivering insights... you can get them in five or 10 minutes” “A lot of these projects would take months for a geologist having to go through all the and try and figure out the ratios." "If you can be in the centre of Wyoming, we're next to a highway, we're next to high tension power, we're next to the railway... and we've got lots and lots of uranium. This is the opportunities for juniors like ours."

  • From Feasibility to Production: Tungsten West's CEO on the Challenges and Opportunities Ahead

    From Feasibility to Production: Tungsten West's CEO on the Challenges and Opportunities Ahead
    Oct 30 2025
    In today’s episode, we're joined by Jeff Court, CEO of Tungsten West, the company redeveloping the Hemerdon tungsten project in Devon, UK Jeff’s worked on mining projects all over the world, and we’ll be talking about his journey into leadership, why tungsten is such a critical mineral, and what it takes to bring a historic mine back into production. We’ll also cover the company’s new feasibility study, financing challenges, and what the EU Critical Raw Materials Act means for Hemerdon. KEY TAKEAWAYS Tungsten is classified as a critical mineral due to its unique properties, such as high density and tensile strength, making it essential in various industries, including mining, construction, transportation, and defence. Tungsten West requires approximately $93 million to restart production at the Hemerdon project, with funding expected to come from a combination of debt and equity. The feasibility study indicates a strong economic outlook, with a potential internal rate of return (IRR) of around 48%. The project incorporates modern mining practices focused on sustainability, including noise reduction measures and community engagement to ensure compliance with environmental standards and to maintain good relations with local residents. The Hemerdon project has been designated as a strategic project under the EU Critical Raw Materials Act, which enhances its profile and may facilitate access to government-backed funding BEST MOMENTS "Tungsten's not gold, it's not iron ore, it's a very interesting specialty metal space that also has a lot of off-take supply requirements around it too." "We have about a 12-month period before we start production." "It raises profile, certainly... it solidifies our credentials." "We want to be a good neighbour. We're going to be there a minimum of 40 years."
