Equity Insider News Commentary
Issued on behalf of RUA GOLD Inc.
VANCOUVER, BC, May 7, 2025
/CNW/ -- Equity Insider News Commentary – Right after
the world's largest gold-buying market (China) returned from its holiday break, gold
prices resumed their climb, also helping reignite momentum across
gold miner stocks along the way. Now analysts are adjusting their
forecasts for gold, and for gold stocks, with JP Morgan now
seeing $4,000 gold as early as Q2
2026, Ed Yardeni of Yardeni
Research projecting $4,000 gold
by year-end. Industry heavyweight Rob
McEwen and Billionaire investor John
Paulson are both expecting gold to nearly hit $5,000 within the next few years, which could set
the stage for a major rally in gold mining equities. Among the gold
companies out there making headlines, there's been recent
developments from groups such as including RUA GOLD Inc.
(TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF), Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG)
(OTCQX: RVLGF), Monument Mining Limited (TSXV: MMY), Orla
Mining Ltd. (NYSE-American: ORLA) (TSX: OLA), and Osisko
Development Corp. (NYSE: ODV) (TSX: ODV).
Gold's run to $3,500 in late April
has forced analysts to rethink their forecasts, with Deutsche
Bank now seeing $3,700 gold on
the horizon. After a brief pullback to $3,300 and most recently crossing back over the
$3,400 mark, strength has returned to
the sector, and gold mining stocks are starting to reflect that
renewed momentum.
RUA GOLD Inc. (TSXV: RUA) (OTCQB: NZAUF), a New Zealand-focused explorer, is drawing fresh
attention after reporting encouraging new drill results from its
Auld Creek project in the Reefton Goldfield—one of the country's
most historically productive regions.
Recent assays included 9.0 metres at 5.9 g/t gold equivalent
(5.2 g/t Au and 0.16% Sb) from hole ACDDH027, and 1.25 metres at
48.3 g/t AuEq (13.3 g/t Au and 8.1% Sb) from hole ACDDH028. These
intercepts, encountered 80 to 100 metres below the current resource
outline, point to a zone that may be gaining strength at depth.
With mineralization remaining open and early results supporting the
company's geological model, Auld Creek is shaping up as a
compelling focus in the 2025 campaign.
Auld Creek is just one piece of a broader exploration push
across the Reefton district, where RUA
GOLD now controls roughly 95% of this historically rich
goldfield.
By pairing AI-powered targeting with advanced 3D geological
modeling, the company is taking a modern approach to an overlooked
region.
According to a recent feature from VRIFY, RUA's
exploration team used the DORA platform to analyze over 170,000
data points, helping to generate and rank high-priority
targets.
This data-driven strategy has already flagged the Gallant
prospect, only 3 km from the past-producing Globe Progress mine, as
a standout, with follow-up drilling now underway. The Globe
Progress mine itself produced over 610,000 ounces between 2007 and
2016, with another 424,000 ounces extracted prior to 1950. With AI
guiding fieldwork, RUA is working to accelerate discovery
while reducing exploration risk.
At Gallant, drilling is now targeting potential extensions of a
previously reported 20.7-metre vein grading 62.2 g/t gold, which
included a 1-metre interval assaying 1,911 g/t. Just a few
kilometres away at Murray Creek, visible gold has been noted in the
majority of holes drilled so far. Both campaigns are being guided
by VRIFY's AI-generated target ranking, helping the team
focus efforts on zones with the strongest geological
indicators.
At Auld Creek, RUA GOLD's
integration of traditional mapping with predictive modeling has
delivered compelling results, including 12 metres at 12.2 g/t gold
equivalent, highlighted by a 2-metre section grading 54.8 g/t gold.
Surface sampling has revealed antimony values above 40%,
underscoring the polymetallic potential of the system. Four
mineralized shoots have now been confirmed, though only two are
currently factored into the project's inferred resource—suggesting
ample room for further growth.
Beyond Reefton, RUA GOLD's
North Island flagship project, Glamorgan, is shaping up as its own
high-impact discovery story. Just downtrend from
OceanaGold's high-profile WKP deposit, Glamorgan has already
revealed two large gold-arsenic anomalies stretching more than 4
kilometres. Rock samples have returned values up to 43 g/t gold,
and with drill targeting now in motion, the project is gaining
attention as a possible breakout opportunity in New Zealand's North Island.
While gold is the main attraction, antimony may be the hidden
upside. In January 2025, New Zealand added antimony to its official
Critical Minerals List—highlighting its growing importance in
global supply chains. That puts new strategic weight behind
RUA GOLD's high-grade
antimony intercepts at Auld Creek, especially as prices have surged
above US$50,000 per tonne. For
investors watching critical minerals, this angle could add
strategic upside.
Backed by a seasoned technical team credited with more than
$11 billion in past mining exits and
supported by $5.75 million in fresh
capital, RUA GOLD is
advancing a focused strategy to uncover high-grade opportunities
across one of the Southern Hemisphere's most promising yet
underexplored gold districts.
With modern tools, disciplined exploration, and a widening
resource footprint, RUA GOLD
is positioning itself for the kind of rediscovery that puts
districts back on the map.

In other industry developments and happenings in the market
include:
Revival Gold Inc. (TSXV: RVG) (OTCQX: RVLGF) recently
released a new Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) for its Mercur
Gold Project in Utah, outlining a
10-year mine life with average production of nearly 96,000 ounces
of gold per year.
At current gold prices, the project carries a $295 million after-tax NPV with a 27% IRR, rising
sharply if gold moves higher. With permitting expected in about two
years, the Mercur project is shaping up as a significant U.S.-based
development story.
Monument Mining Limited (TSXV: MMY) recently entered a
collaboration agreement with joint venture partner Odyssey
Gold, setting the stage to process ore from the Tuckanarra Gold
Project at Monument's Burnakura Mill in Western Australia.
"I am very pleased with the execution of this MOU with
Odyssey, which aligns with Monument's development
strategy to enhance production potential in the Murchison region,"
said Cathy Zhai, President and CEO
of Monument. "As junior companies continue to navigate the
inherent challenges and risks in the Natural Resource industry,
this collaboration represents a win-win opportunity and a business
model which may expand the potential mine life of the Murchison
Gold Project, accelerate capital returns, and enhance free cash
flow. It will also support exploration companies' direct access to
cash resources without large dilution for advancement of gold
discoveries within this prolific Murchison
Goldfield."
The deal could increase production by up to 20% while improving
mill utilization and free cash flow. Both companies are sharing
technical data as they explore a joint path forward.
Orla Mining Ltd. (NYSE-American: ORLA) (TSX: OLA) kicked
off 2025 with record gold production, reporting nearly 48,000
ounces in Q1 thanks to solid output from Camino Rojo and a fast start at its newly
acquired Musselwhite mine. Camino
Rojo delivered 30,000 ounces and continues to track toward
full-year guidance of 110,000–120,000 ounces.
Musselwhite, acquired in late February, produced almost 18,000
ounces in March alone at an impressive grade of 5.55 g/t.
With both mines firing early, and a development project in
Nevada still to come, Orla
is gaining attention as one of the emerging multi-asset gold
producers to watch.
Osisko Development Corp.'s (NYSE: ODV) (TSX:
ODV) latest feasibility study highlights the Cariboo Gold
Project as one of the most advanced undeveloped gold assets in a
Tier-1 jurisdiction. The project projects robust returns, with a
base case after-tax NPV5% of C$943
million and a 22.1% IRR, increasing to over C$2 billion NPV at current spot prices.
"The completion of this optimized feasibility study represents a
critical milestone for the Cariboo Gold Project, one of the few
undeveloped, permitted gold projects in a Tier-1 jurisdiction,"
said Sean Roosen, Founder, Chairman
and CEO of Osisko. "With today's favorable gold price
backdrop and positive outlook, we believe this project is
well-positioned to deliver substantial value to all stakeholders.
We look forward to sharing further updates in the coming
months."
The plan outlines average annual production of 190,000 ounces
over a decade, with first gold expected in H2 2027. With permits
secured and financing in progress, Cariboo is emerging as a
high-impact development story aligned with today's gold macro
tailwinds.
