Precious Metals & Critical Minerals Virtual Investor Conference summary
23 Jul, 2026Project overview and resource highlights
Omai project in Guyana hosts two adjacent gold deposits with a combined resource of about 8 million oz, including 2.5 million oz indicated and 5.5 million oz inferred, both at robust grades for open pit and underground mining.
Wenot deposit, the main focus, has been drilled extensively to 2.5 km length and 500 m depth, showing higher grades at depth and multiple vertical mineralized zones.
The project benefits from existing infrastructure, including a paved highway, airstrip, and tailings facility, and is located in a mining-friendly jurisdiction with a clear permitting path.
Historical production and strong metallurgical recoveries (92-95%) support the potential for a long-life mine, with the site previously contributing significantly to Guyana's GDP.
The property is 100% owned, with simple land tenure and ongoing environmental permitting, and is well-positioned for interest from major gold producers seeking large, de-risked projects.
Exploration, development, and operational plans
Aggressive drilling program with five rigs operating year-round, targeting both resource expansion and infill to support a preliminary economic assessment (PEA) and future feasibility study.
The upcoming PEA, expected by early August, will outline a mine plan combining open pit (Wenot) and underground (Gilt Creek) operations, with a projected mine life of 16-20 years.
Updated resource estimate anticipated in Q4, with ongoing drilling expected to add ounces and reduce mining costs and strip ratio.
Processing plant capacity is being revised upward to 20,000-25,000 tons per day due to the scale of the deposit, with underground mining to follow after initial open pit years.
Exploration focus remains on Wenot and its extensions, with step-out drilling at east Wenot and satellite targets along a 7-km shear zone.
Financials, valuation, and market positioning
Well-financed with CAD 33 million in cash, a market cap of $1.2 billion U.S., and a share price around CAD 1.75; less than two million warrants outstanding and 8% options.
Analyst consensus values the company at 0.2-0.3x NAV, with expectations for a re-rating as the PEA and further de-risking milestones are achieved.
No major shareholders; largest is Mackenzie Funds at 6-7%, with strong institutional representation from U.S. and European funds.
Inclusion in indexes like GDXJ is possible, which could further improve liquidity.
Ongoing news flow expected from continuous drilling and resource updates through 2026, with improved assay turnaround anticipated.
