Trevor Rose’s Insights - Trevor’s most-liked answers from 5i Research
REG is a mineral exploration company that acquires mineral resources that management feels have overlooked potential, it adds value by investing in the sites, and monetized by selling to a major mining company. In 2005, it acquired Antares Mineral, invested in exploration on the site, and sold to First Quantum in 2010 for $650M. Currently, it is focusing in its flagship project, the AntaKori copper-gold project in Northern Peru. REG is conducting drilling programs at AntaKori, and has some partnerships with Osisko Gold Royalties in respect to AntaKori. It could sell the project down the line to monetize it and add shareholder value. For now, it is pre-revenue, its momentum has been good, and the management team is experienced. We think it looks interesting, but being a small company and with no revenues, we would consider it to be on the riskier side. We would be OK with a small position, while acknowledging its small-cap risks, and slightly more speculative in nature. Unlock Premium - Try 5i Free
Very small company and very illiquid. Increased their asset base in the last year and are increasing their production. Doesn't think they will have any trouble with debt.
Have a porphyry copper system in Argentina. Good guys running it. One side of it has pretty good mineralization but we haven’t seen this thing actually expand large enough that it is going to make large enough tons and grade to make an economic deposit.
