In this episode of Mining Stock Education, Bill Powers and Brian Leni host their monthly discussion on junior mining investing. The conversation covers a wide range of topics relevant to both new and experienced investors in the mining sector. Bill and Brian respond to a listener’s question about the value of learning from investment successes versus failures, sharing personal stories and lessons learned from both. The discussion explores the challenges of knowing when to take profits, the risks of selling too early, and strategies for managing winners and losers in a portfolio. Advice for newcomers to junior mining is offered, including the importance of only investing what you can afford to lose, avoiding margin, and understanding your own financial situation. The hosts emphasize the need for skepticism regarding rumors, anonymous online accounts, and promotional activity in the sector. They discuss the importance of doing your own research and being aware of potential conflicts of interest. Bill and Brian share their perspectives on where we are in the gold cycle, the impact of macroeconomic factors, and how to manage expectations during bull and bear markets. Brian outlines his approach to position sizing, balancing risk and conviction, and tailoring allocations based on the type of mining company (explorer, developer, producer). The show addresses the issue of management accountability in junior mining, referencing recent lawsuits and the challenges of assessing management competence and intent. The conversation also touches on recent developments in Ecuador and how government actions can impact mining companies and investor decisions.

Notable Quotes:

“You really have to look at your failures and learn from them and adjust. That doesn’t mean you can’t learn from your successes too.”
“Don’t put more money in, even in a bull market, than you can afford to lose.”
“Skepticism is key—do your own due diligence, especially with anonymous accounts and online promotions.”
“Position sizing is one of the biggest things that has led to my success personally.”

CEO Sued, Anon Promos, & Learning from Success: Junior Mining Insights with Bill Powers & Brian Leni

Ivan Bebek, Chair and CEO of Coppernico Metals, discusses the latest high-grade copper hard-rock surface samples from the Nioc target on the company's flagship Sombrero project in Peru: "Is this the tip of the iceberg that you're seeing; kind of poke through that cover potentially? But what's most impressive is the grade. So the project's getting more exciting. These results are incredibly rare on the global copper scene to see this kind of grade coinciding with geophysics that really indicate the potential for something that could be what we would call globally significant or world class as an opportunity."

Gold Royalty Boom: What Investors Should Know with Insider Alexandra Woodyer Sherron

Ivan Bebek, Chair and CEO of Coppernico Metals, discusses the latest developments with the company’s Sombrero copper-gold project in Peru: “We are pleased to have amended our option agreement with Aceros, reflecting the collaborative nature of the relationship. This Amendment is an important step toward securing drill permits for our Fierrazo target, which we are advancing. Engaging with local communities and stakeholders has been a top priority for the Sombrero Project since its inception and will remain so moving forward, together with the commitment to a safe working environment and job creation. We believe that Sombrero has the potential to become a premier copper exploration district, given the scale of the numerous targets we are identifying and geological data being collected. This conviction complements our efforts to develop impactful agricultural programs in the region, with active participation from local communities and support from the government. We appreciate Aceros’ collaboration on this Amendment, which will help us advance the Project more efficiently. Further updates on permit progress, exploration results, and new claims in the region will follow in the near future.”
