The National Investor

Here, I sit down for a comprehensive "long form" discussion with my long-time friend Scott Melbye, perhaps THE foremost expert in the U.S. on uranium, the nuclear energy industry more broadly and all its various moving parts and policy issues.

Besides being Exec. V.P. of Uranium Energy Corp. (NYSEArca-UEC)-- the role for which our audience knows Scott best--he is also C.E.O. of Uranium Royalty Corp. (NASD-UROY.)

Scott is also President of the Uranium Producers of America industry trade group as well; one of many reasons--on top of his resume including leading roles with Cameco, Uranium One, Kazatamprom and Uranium Participation Corp. (now, the Sprott Physical Uranium Trust.)

Scott recaps for us the ever-strengthening bullish case for uranium, as present and expected future demand continue to rise sharply. This, of course, as 1. the world's need for ever more electrification grows and 2. the U.S. uniquely sees burgeoning demand for data centers, Artificial Intelligence applications and more.

We discuss, also, the geostrategic considerations that are removing Russian and now "Chinese" enriched uranium from the U.S. -- and how that and more will especially be leading to great times for North American producers of the nuclear fuel: now and later.

And that for U.S. companies especially is slated to be boosted by a very favorable regulatory and policy landscape that will be fostered for a stronger U.S. nuclear energy sector by the incoming Trump Administration.

In this discussion, Chris walks through Apollo Silver's now TWO major primary silver projects: Calico in Southeastern California and the recent option acquired on an especially compelling exploration project--Cinco de Mayo--in northern Mexico.

For starters, as you'll hear, Chris repeats one of his favorite "checklist" items in vetting any potential investment opportunity: and that is to find and bet on a proven "jockey." And there are precious few seasoned executives in the metals / minerals exploration industry like Apollo's Andy Bowering that have the track record of wealth creation multiple times and--thus--the ability to draw in major investors and investments.

And Bowering with the fairly "young" Apollo is firmly at the helm of his latest company- and wealth-building effort which--as you'll hear, if all goes according to plan--could lead to a MAJOR re-rating for shares of Apollo, which Chris presently rate as a Speculative BUY in The National Investor.

One of my newest recommendations in the pages of The National Investor is so for ALL the reasons you'll be watching in this discussion between Kelly Malcolm (recently off a several years-long and successful stint with Amex Exploration) and Yours truly.

I have visited the Walker Lane Trend in southern Nevada (one that runs along, roughly, the California/Nevada border and then some) more than once and have lately been getting a renewed appreciation (including from Malcolm!) of the potential here.

The old Borealis Mine has previously produced several hundred thousand ounces of gold but has IMMENSE upside still. Malcolm feels this, as does an all-star board he has assembled for the company, all of whom have past, major successes in the industry as well.

AND the way in which industry legend Rob McEwen obtained his stake is especially instructive on a few levels!

Borealis sports potential all along the "food chain" -- some modest recent production...headed toward expected full-time production in 2025...exploration upside (some evidenced mere days ago as you'll hear) and more.

_____________________________

This isn't just hyperbole...listen in as I discuss the things within President Trump's power to TRULY upend the established order in "The Swamp" and be the transformative president we all hope he will be.

ON THE BUDGET: REALLY drain the Swamp...GUT the Military-Industrial Complex and evil CIA/security state with it...turn loose Elon and D.O.G.E....and run up no NEW debts to the Federal Reserve.

ON THE ECONOMY: Embrace a National Infrastructure Bank...revamped enterprise zones...and more I touch on here.

ON THE MONETARY SYSTEM: Follow the example of Andy Jackson and roust out the Den of Vipers...do an "end run" around BOTH Wall Street and the Fed...allow the former to flourish ONLY as it meets the national interest...look at a TRULY national (NOT banker, with its associated debt) currency and currency board.

FOR THE WORLD: END the for-profit American Empire that has led to nothing but grifting, death, misery and the HATRED of America in too many places...lead the way to break the shackles of debt and the predatory I.M.F. and World Bank on other nations.

Here, I catch up with Rudi Fronk again to get us all an update on Seabridge. Most importantly, we go over the latest developments at the flagship KSM Project, where the Proven and Probable Reserves--47+ million ounces of gold, 7.3 billion pounds of copper and 160 million ounces of silver set this development-stage project apart as perhaps THE premier project in the world.

Rudi and I also take a quick lap/update over the company's four other major North American assets, any one of which could be a flagship asset for a smaller company. But here, we have all FIVE of these under one roof!

Lastly, we opine on the just-concluded U.S. election and the daunting debt/fiscal and monetary challenges now facing President Trump.

NOTE: Go to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7mbgoii-dA to watch the recording we reference in our discussion: This of Rudi and his Seabridge Co-Founder Jim Anthony discussing "A Tale of Two Gold Markets" recently in a discussion with Red Cloud TV.

In this Episode, I discuss the promise--and perils--of Trump 2.0, following the unexpectedly strong showing of both the, now, 47th president and of the G.O.P. winners carried along on his coattails.

As always, I call 'em as I see 'em! So be prepared for a take on President Trump's win that is both hopeful and sober. The deck is stacked against Trump and a Republican Congress more than any of them realize. We're going to see just how serious a "realignment" (and more) these folks are ready for!

I also take an initial look at the market reactions this first day following the voting. Among other things, I suggested a Republican sweep would (at least initially) be great for stocks...and bad for precious metals.

But these and other initial knee-jerk reactions--like the markets following a Fed meeting--WON'T necessarily endure. I explain why.

Here, I visit with Victor Cantore chiefly to get an update on the company's recent release of an initial Mineral Resource Estimate at the company's Perron Project.

Simply put, the market was underwhelmed by the approximately 1.65 million ounce gold resource (total of inferred and indicated), as a larger number had been expected. Yet Cantore explains that:

1. There remains substantial upside exploration potential and past/future drilling to add over time to that resource and

2. More important, that the company released the resource when it did in anticipation of immediately putting out an economic study right after (expected not many weeks hence) showing robust economics of what would be an initial mine development.

And as Cantore underscores, the recent added investment into Amex by both Eric Sprott and Eldorado Gold suggest that THEY "get" the game plan here!

Especially given the drop in Amex's share price of the last couple months following selling on the M.R.E., this--as I say during our discussion--is a gift to those of you who aren't yet shareholders (or want to add to your holdings.)

Here, I interview my long-time friend Tom MacNeill, C.E.O. of Omineca Mining & Metals (TSXV-OMM; OTCQB-OMMSF).

I have long believed that Omineca will be the THIRD big winner the MacNeill family has brought us at The National Investor. But as Tom and I recap in this NEW discussion, myriad delays of one kind or another and simply some interference along the way from "Mr. Murphy" have delayed what we all have believed will one day be one (or potentially two) major "pay days" for Omineca shareholders.

But now it seems that the time is at hand. The last couple pieces of the puzzle are coming into place that should see Omineca and its partner recovering meaningful amounts of gold within weeks from the Wingdam paleo channel.

But even beyond that--and frankly, the REAL home run potential here--is an associated hard rock drilling program that is getting underway in just the next few days.

When you understand the history of the Cariboo region in Canada's British Columbia generally and the more localized dynamics of the Barkerville and Wingdam areas, you'll be just as excited as we are over the potential of the next major gold resource in B.C. being uncovered right here!

This time around, Chris discusses the economic, geopolitical and related facts of life we will be dealing with from 2025 onward no matter who wins the upcoming U.S. election.

For example, ever-soaring new deficits, indebtedness, and the ongoing stagflation that all brings will remain our lot in life.

Indeed, as Chris kicks off this discussion, he points out that Fed Chairman Powell was newly selling his "Joliet Jay" schtick at the recent Kansas City Fed-hosted summer picnic, setting us up for anyone who was listening to the central bank deflecting more blame from itself on inflation specifically.

Higher-for-longer will remain the mantra on price inflation and borrowing costs both, notwithstanding the looming rate cuts coming from the Fed on the short end.

You'll also hear Chris discuss the ongoing "Japanification" of China, perhaps THE biggest issue globally that will affect many areas. It's going to muddy up trade, global investment markets, the nascent bull market for commodities, the near-term viability of all this BRICS stuff (that a key subject to come in our Road Map discussion part 3, coming later this month) and a LOT more.
