  • “We Own a 4% NSR Royalty on a Growing Gold Deposit (2.55 Moz @ 5.47 g/t)” -Kenorland CEO Zach Flood

    “We Own a 4% NSR Royalty on a Growing Gold Deposit (2.55 Moz @ 5.47 g/t)” -Kenorland CEO Zach Flood
    Dec 18 2025
    Kenorland Minerals CEO Zach Flood comments: “The maiden mineral resource estimate (2.55 Moz Gold @ 5.47 g/t) of the Regnault gold deposit firmly underpins the value of Kenorland and our 4% NSR royalty. Achieved in under five years from grassroots discovery, at a low discovery cost of roughly $20 per ounce, Regnault has emerged as a high-grade, multi-million-ounce gold deposit that remains wide open for expansion. Discoveries of this magnitude are rare and given the relatively modest amount of drilling completed to date, substantial upside potential remains. We’re immensely proud to have reached this milestone in close collaboration with our partners at Sumitomo and look forward to their continued leadership of the Project moving forward. The Frotet Royalty now stands as one of the highest-quality royalty assets in the junior sector and will continue to be a clear driver of long-term value for Kenorland shareholders.” Kenorland looks to identify gaps in exploration maturity within prospective districts based on large scale compilation and integration of geological, geochemical and geophysical data. Kenorland’s management team and advisors have extensive experience in project and target generation from continent-wide area selection to deposit scale exploration across the globe. Combining the team’s extensive exploration experience with an integrated approach places Kenorland in an optimal position to generate shareholder wealth through JV partnerships, generated royalties, equity positions and new discoveries. https://www.kenorlandminerals.com/ TSXV: KLD | OTCQX: KLDCF | FSE: 3WQ0 0:00 Intro 00:47 Maiden Regnault Mineral Resource Estimate 01:06 Exploration and Joint Ventures with Sumitomo 03:49 Valuation and Market Response 05:31 Future Prospects and Developments 09:25 South Uchi Project 11:10 Financial Position and Partner Funding 15:53 Closing Remarks Press release discussed: https://www.kenorlandminerals.com/news/2025/kenorland-minerals-reports-maiden-inferred-resource-of-145-mt-at-547-gt-au-for-255-million-ounces-at-the-frotet-project-quebec-where-it-holds-a-4-nsr-royalty Sign up for our free newsletter and receive interview transcripts, stock profiles and investment ideas: http://eepurl.com/cHxJ39 Sponsor Kenorland Minerals paid Mining Stock Education a United States dollar ten thousand per month coverage fee.
