In this InvestorIntel interview during PDAC 2023, Tracy Weslosky talks with Joel Freudman, Co-Founder, CEO and Director of TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF). Joel discusses recent news including the new discovery of high-grade gold in channel samplings at their Golden Rose Project. He also mentions that they also recently found a “high probability copper target” also on the Golden Rose Project. This now means the Project has both gold and copper potential.

Joel discusses TRU’s management team and board including two new hires that add further depth and experience to the team. He says TRU has had a busy PDAC with lots of interest in the Company and that TRU is welcoming interest from possible M&A opportunities as well as financing opportunities.

Joel gives investors an outline of the Company’s near-term plans and catalysts including structural mapping and trenching and later in the summer a drilling campaign at key targets on the Golden Rose Project.

TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF) (“TRU”) is a portfolio company of merchant bank Resurgent Capital. TRU has assembled a portfolio of several gold exploration properties in the Central Newfoundland Gold Belt. TRU’s flagship project is the Golden Rose Project which lies just near Marathon Gold’s Valentine Project, which holds the largest undeveloped gold resource in Atlantic Canada.

The Golden Rose Project

TRU owns 100% of the Golden Rose Project which is spread over a 236 km² land package. The Project lies in the highly prospective Central Newfoundland Gold Belt between Marathon Gold’s Valentine Gold Project and Matador Mining’s Cape Ray Gold Project. Golden Rose covers a vast and largely under-explored land package and is transected by the Valentine Lake structural corridor, hosting over 45 km of prospective strike-length for gold and copper mineralization.

Key recent news at the Golden Rose Project is a deal to extend the claims with an option to acquire up to an aggregate 65% ownership interest in two claim packages covering 33.25 km² including a 12 km strike length along the Cape Ray – Valentine Lake Shear Zone (“Shear Zone”).

Even better news occurred on January 12, 2023, when TRU reported high-grade channel sampling results from Mark’s Pond Trench at the Golden Rose Project. The highlight results included 57.6 g/t gold (“Au”) over 2.5 meters (“m”), 34.0 g/t Au over 2.0 m & 23.5 g/t Au over 2.0 m. The Mark’s Pond target is located along the deposit-bearing Shear Zone.

Location Map: TRU’s Golden Rose Project – Mark’s Pond Target – Recent High-grade Gold Channel Results

Previously three bedrock grab samples from Mark’s Pond returned very high-grade gold assay results including:

• 1929.0 g/t Au
• 205.6 g/t Au
• 180.1 g/t Au

Furthermore, grab samples collected at Rich House along the northern shore of Victoria Lake returned weighted average total gold values between 4.3 and 16.8 g/t Au.

Grab samples and trench sampling are only two early indicators of the area’s potential; however these grades are superb and have certainly got the Company excited as you can see in this recent InvestorIntel video.

The Northcott Gold Zone has the Potential to be a Company-making Discovery

The 2 to 3 m wide northeast trending shear zone (“Northcott Gold Zone”) contains abundant visible gold within quartz-carbonate veins.

TRU stated:

“The Northcott Gold Zone remains open along strike to the southwest and northeast. This zone is potentially part of a larger scale, gold-endowed structural corridor located within the Mark’s Pond target area, and potentially extending to the Rich House target 4 km to the northeast.“

Source: Company presentation

TRU plans to extend the trench further in both directions and complete detailed structural mapping of the entire trench and additional channel sampling in spring 2023 prior to drilling this zone.

TRU’s Vice President of Exploration, Paul Ténière, commented:

“This is a very exciting time for TRU, and these excellent gold assay results from our recent channel sampling program help confirm our belief that the newly discovered Northcott Gold Zone is part of a larger scale, gold-endowed structural corridor located within the Mark’s Pond target area, and potentially extending to the Rich House target 4 km to the northeast. The Northcott Gold Zone is not far from the high-grade Mark’s Pond Gold Zone, and we anticipate further gold discoveries along strike and to the northwest. The Mark’s Pond – Rich House targets will be considered a high priority for our 2023 exploration program at Golden Rose including additional trenching, channel sampling, and drilling.“

Closing remarks

Finding new gold discoveries is never easy. In this case, TRU still has a long way to go in order to see if the Northcott Gold Zone is part of a larger scale, gold-endowed structural corridor, but so far it looks very promising with some very high-grade trenching sample and grab sample results. In 2023, the Company will continue trench sampling work to potentially extend the Northcott Gold Zone as well as help identify drill target areas.

TRU Precious Metals Corp. trades on a market cap of C$6 million. 2023 could be a big year for TRU and potentially a company maker if significant gold discoveries follow.

In this InvestorIntel interview, Chris Thompson talks to TRU Precious Metals Corp.’s (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF) VP Exploration Paul Teniere about TRU’s recent high-grade gold assay results (including 57.6 g/t gold over 2.5 metres and 34 g/t gold over 2 metres) from their Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland. Providing an update from channel sampling at their newly discovered Northcott Gold Zone on the Golden Rose Project, Paul explains what makes the zone a significant gold discovery for TRU.

Speaking about TRU’s key exploration accomplishments in 2022, Paul discusses the geographic and geologic importance of their Golden Rose Project’s location between two large gold deposits (Marathon Gold’s Valentine Gold Project and Matador Mining’s Cape Ray Gold Project). He goes on to provide an update on TRU’s recently closed private placement the proceeds of which will be used to explore for critical minerals at the Jacob’s Pond target area on the Golden Rose Project.

In this InvestorIntel interview, host Tracy Weslosky interviews TRU Precious Metals Corp.’s (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF) Co-Founder, CEO and Director Joel Freudman about TRU’s ‘exceptional numbers’ on high-grade gold results collected at the Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland that were recently announced. This news release described visible gold and high-grade gold results from rock samples, Joel commented on some of the positive highlights contained in the news release, which includes the following excerpt:

• Visible gold is evident in outcrop and in bedrock grab samples collected from a recently extended trench at Mark’s Pond. The grab samples were taken from a sheared volcaniclastic and graphitic unit containing a significant number of quartz-carbonate veins. Mapping and channel sampling within the trench have confirmed the presence of visible coarse- and fine-grained gold both within these quartz-carbonate veins and the surrounding wall rock along a newly discovered shear zone approximately 130 m northwest of the Mark’s Pond Gold Zone.
• Three bedrock grab samples collected from newly exposed outcrop in the Mark’s Pond trench have returned very high-grade gold assay results from total pulp metallics analysis (metallic screening) including weighted average total Au values of 1,929 g/t Au, 205.6 g/t Au, and 180.1 g/t Au (Table 1 and Figure 2).
• Four bedrock grab samples collected at the Rich House target along the northern shore of Victoria Lake returned weighted average total Au values between 4.3 and 16.8 g/t Au from metallic screening analysis (Table 1 and Figure 1).
• A series of channel samples have been collected in the recently excavated 275 m long trench at Mark’s Pond including a 23 m long easterly extension at the southern end of the trench along strike of the gold-bearing volcaniclastic and graphitic shear zone. Those assay results are pending from the laboratory.

Located between two large gold projects (Marathon Gold’s Valentine Gold Project and Matador Mining’s Cape Ray Gold Project), Joel says that they have now identified multiple targets at the Golden Rose Project with gold, silver and copper.

In this InvestorIntel interview, host Tracy Weslosky talks to TRU Precious Metals Corp.’s (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF) Co-Founder, CEO & Director Joel Freudman about upcoming drill results and the key strategic location of its Newfoundland Golden Rose Project.

“The key value driver for us,” Joel says, “is our Golden Rose Project in central Newfoundland. We’re right between two gold deposits – five million ounce Marathon Gold on one side, and they’re putting their mine into production in 2025, and the other side is Matador Mining with a significant gold resource. We control all the land between them.” This consolidation came about as a result of a recently announced option agreement that added the remaining smaller properties to TRU’s land package, which, he tells Tracy, “makes it a great turnkey project for potential acquirers down the road.”

Joel also tells Tracy that results from the summer 2000 meter drill program at the Jacobs Pond area of the Golden Rose Project are expected shortly, where the company “saw a lot of indications at surface for copper even bits of cobalt.” He believes that finding copper at Jacob’s Pond could be a good potential catalyst for TRU, diversifying its appeal and meriting a follow-on drill program.

In this InvestorIntel PDAC 2022 Panel on “In Search of Gold – The Gold Market”, host Stephen Lautens discusses the increasingly positive market sentiment towards junior gold explorers and gold as an investment with a panel of gold experts including MAS Gold Corp.‘s (TSXV: MAS) CEO and Director Jim Engdahl, TRU Precious Metals Corp.‘s (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF) Co-Founder, CEO and Director Joel Freudman, Volcanic Gold Mines Inc.’s (TSXV: VG) Founder, Director, President and CEO Simon Ridgway, and West Red Lake Gold Mines Inc.‘s (CSE: RLG | OTCQB: RLGMF) President and Director John Kontak.

In the video, which can also be viewed in full on the InvestorIntel YouTube channel (click here), the panel discusses the continuing investor interest in gold in turbulent markets. Simon Ridgway of Volcanic Gold says that “I do think that there’s a pretty good upside over the next five months for gold. When the big markets fail as they are right now then people usually turn to gold as a safe haven.” TRU Precious Metals CEO Joel Freudman agrees: “If you look at March 2020, gold got liquidated along with everything else but subsequently gold and precious metals like silver really took off following the crash, so to your point, I think a similar pattern wouldn’t be unexpected.”

The panel also discusses a new, younger generation of investors who are returning to gold following the rise and fast fall of investments like cannabis and crypto.

Broad markets are down this week in a wide, deep selloff. Or for optimists out there it’s a general cleanup across the spectrum, punishing the overly ambitious. Gold is down too, as I’ll discuss below.

Here’s what’s going on, and towards the end I’ll list five “mine and minerals” ideas on how to play it all.

First, and obviously, markets have declined based on negative sentiment. And why? After all, is there any good news out there? Consider:

• War in Ukraine, rapidly emerging as a new, generational East-West struggle.
• Structural, built-in inflation across every economy in the world.
• High oil and natural gas prices, with production and supply issues worldwide that have translated into shortages.
• The nat-gas shortages have led to a lack of fertilizer which – rolled in with high oil/diesel prices – foretells of eventual, widespread food scarcity.
• All of the above, while the global cargo ship economy remains mired in clogged ports, amplified by Covid shutdowns in China.
• And people have finally caught onto the racket of those high flying, profitless tech companies with business plans that lose money, seemingly forever.

I could go on, but you get the picture. It’s a mess out there and getting messier. Not exactly the foundation of a booming global economy as 2022 unfolds.

So yes, people feel negative, sell out, and go to cash. They de-risk, so to speak.

Which brings us to gold, which is sliding. And here’s the quandary: Why sell gold into a de-risking market? Gold ought to represent long-term security in a time of risk, right?

The sell-side argument is that interest rates are rising, and rising rates raise the carry cost for holding gold. That is, physical gold is “just metal” and doesn’t pay a dividend. So, every ounce in the vault is a missed opportunity to generate cash. And the imputed loss on gold (i.e., versus holding cash) is greater when interest rates are high.

It’s not difficult to understand the argument, but I don’t buy it. Because look at the situation from a different angle.

Per the U.S. government’s own statistics, inflation is running in the 8.5% range – and the true number might be twice that if you follow what is called “shadow statistics.” In that respect, holding cash also has a cost, namely that 8.5% inflation rate (or more) per year of vanishing purchasing power.

Here’s the investor choice: hold cash and generate minor amounts of interest in an environment of rising inflation. Or hold gold and protect the wealth basis against declining purchasing power over time.

Indeed, the Fed threatens the world with small interest rate increases of 0.25% or even 0.5%. Okay, but that’s insignificant when compared with the 8.5% (or more) declining value of cash.

So, why have people sold gold down in recent days? Well, sometimes you don’t sell what you want to sell. You sell what you have to sell. Like if you need fast cash.

You sell gold because it’s liquid and always catches a bid. That’s not necessarily the case with many other investment ideas.

During market sell-downs the price of gold often drops early, such as when overstretched people need cash to cover margin calls. But after that early tumble, gold tends to be among the first plays to recover on the other side of the selloff and cleanup.

Along with the declining price of gold, metal miners often head down too. Good companies drop in value for no good reason. The list is long and includes names that hold great assets with serious ore in the ground, coupled with excellent geologic work, facilities, workforce and management teams.

There’s no saying how long the current selloff will last. Will the market find a bottom and then head back up? Or will more downside yet unfurl? Nobody really knows, and things can change in a matter of hours.

But along these lines, I have five names for you, companies in the gold and related metals space that have tumbled in recent days into bargain-hunt land:

One great up-and-running metal miner is Avino Silver & Gold Mines Ltd. (NYSE American: ASM | TSX: ASM). This company has operated near Durango, Mexico since 1968. The ore body is a deep-running series of veins that were first discovered in 1548 by Spanish explorers/conquistadores. There’s a full package of mineshafts, mills and processing facilities. Much of the operation was closed during Covid, but it’s all getting back into production. Ore grades are excellent, with continuing discovery as mining progresses. Plus, an offtake agreement with Samsung for all the metals.

And here are a couple of names for companies well-along in the exploration side, with superb results to date and great prospects ahead:

Take a look at American Pacific Mining Corp. (CSE: USGD | OTCQX: USGDF). This company controls a major copper exploration play in Madison, Montana and is partnered-up with giant Rio Tinto to explore a skarn-porphyry, mineral-bearing body. Progress – meaning mineralization uncovered – has been excellent over the past 18 months, with numerous unreleased drill results still to come. Meanwhile, Am-Pac holds 100% of two other outstanding, high-grade, near-surface gold plays in hard-rock mining country in Nevada.

And look at Group Ten Metals, Inc. (TSXV: PGE | OTCQB: PGEZF). This is another company that works in the nickel-platinum belt of Montana, adjacent to property controlled by Sibanye-Stillwater. Group Ten controls a vast land package and has had remarkable success identifying high-grade zones of copper-nickel, along with platinum group metals, gold, silver and even chrome. Indeed, it’s a “battery metals” play from numerous angles.

For early-stage gold exploration, look at TRU Precious Metals Corp. (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF). The company works in Newfoundland, in a highly prospective gold-copper belt. Its neighbors include two well-known names, Marathon Gold and Newfound Gold Corp., and TRU is directly on the geologic trend that connects these other two plays. Early sampling, mapping and geophysics are promising, with drill results offering strong promise.

And finally, another early-stage explorer, Romios Gold Resources Inc. (TSXV: RG | OTCQB: RMIOF). This is what geologists call a “hip pocket” play, an intriguing collection of historically explored and mined projects across Canada and in Nevada. Right now, the focus is on two high-grade works that were picked in the olden days, but abandoned to the mists of time due to low-priced gold. Modern geophysics and drilling reveal significant new mineralized zones. Romios is a small-cap play, but with the ability to move on news from the drill deck.

That’s all for now…  Thank you for reading.

In this InvestorIntel interview with host Byron W. King, TRU Precious Metals Corp.’s (TSXV: TRU | OTCQB: TRUIF) Co-Founder, CEO & Director Joel Freudman provides an update on the drill program at TRU’s Golden Rose Project in Central Newfoundland.
