Quant Special: $TDG.V #Gold Freeport buys 51% of TDG's Aurora West for C$110M cash: the west side of the AuRORA Au-Cu discovery it already co-owns with $AHR.V. That cash is ~55% of TDG's ~C$200M market cap. TDG keeps 49% plus Shasta. #Mintwit

Next: TDG reorg in Dec, then closing (TSXV OK). Freeport must spend C$30M in 3 yrs; C$80M gets it to 75% (+C$40M for 100% of 2 claims). 2026 AuRORA assays (7 holes) pending. Caveat: drill intercepts, not a resource; true widths unknown. Deal not closed. tdggold.com/news-2/2026-03/2…

Market verdict, 12 Nov: $TDG.V +45% to C$0.71 (high C$0.79) on 4.3M shares, ~26x its 20-day avg volume. $AHR.V +13% to C$1.04 on ~13x avg. Read-through: Freeport paid C$110M for 51% of ground next to its own JV, ground Amarc can opt into at cost. TDG was worth ~C$138M on 11 Nov.

In 1903 a railway blacksmith in the Ontario bush filed a claim as copper. It was silver, in a camp that would ship 400M+ ounces. He cashed out for about $25,000. The storekeeper he showed his rocks to built a gold empire and a city with his name. 🧵 1/10 #MiningStories #Silver

In 1908, puffing a fat cigar, LaRose said he was off to find a gold mine: "Bye-and-bye you will hear: 'La Rose have found a gold mine; he has a lucky pick.'" The gold was found by Benny Hollinger. Money from LaRose's vein bought it. The city is called Timmins. 10/10
