Summary
The video features Bob Quartermain, CEO of Dakota Gold Corp (DC), discussing the company’s assets in the historic Homestake district of South Dakota and promoting its upcoming investor conference in Las Vegas.
Key highlights include 48,000 acres of claims, the Richmond Hill surface‑oxide project with a measured‑indicated 2.6 million ounces of gold and a $1.6 billion net‑present‑value at a $2,350/oz price, an attractive $380‑$3 million capital cost, and a projected 150,000 oz annual output over a 17‑year mine life. Recent drilling added 350 new holes, and the JB zone shows 11 g/t over 4 m.
Quartermain, a 50‑year mining veteran who built Silver Standard into a $2 billion company, highlighted a $75 million financing round that leaves $107 million cash on hand—enough for three years of shovel‑ready work. He pointed to a pre‑feasibility study due in H2 2026 and a full feasibility study slated for H1 2027 as near‑term catalysts.
If feasibility and permitting stay on schedule, construction could begin in 2028 with production in 2029, delivering cash flow and potentially boosting valuation as gold prices hover near $4,500/oz. The fully funded timeline positions Dakota Gold as a rare micro‑cap with near‑term operating potential.
