Why it may matterVerify against the original reporting
Near-term catalysts include MECP pre-submission for Gowganda, an anticipated NI 43-101 update, and the Granada NSR transaction, each with potential to re-rate valuation. Historical parallels show such regulatory and resource-update milestones often precede favorable moves in junior silver plays, though execution risk and TSXV approvals remain meaningful headwinds.
