GERARDO:

First of all, thank you for that kind introduction — I’m happy to be here and to be talking about this urgent topic.

And it’s not the hot seat at all... I love this stuff, I’m here for it, I’m ready for it.

So fire away!

And look, I’ve been getting those questions too.

Should I buy? Should I sell? Is gold going up or down?

All good questions.

And believe it or not, even though these questions seem like opposites, I have the same answer for both: stop paying attention to gold’s spot price and start paying attention to the bigger overall picture.

Look, this is a great time to be a resource investor, and we’re fortunate to be asking these questions at all.

Now that gold has broken $3,000 an ounce, as I predicted it would…

We’re in a whole new era of resource investing

That means we’re going to see new highs — yes, that’s right, I believe we’re going to push to new highs as the fundamental circumstances behind gold continue to push it even higher.

And of course it also means we’re going to see large pullbacks as the market tries to account for all of the other major macro swings out there due to global trade... President Trump... tensions with China... the Fed’s treasury policy... and the many other factors that are having day-to-day influence over the price.

This is NOT me trying to have it both ways.

What I’m saying is that we’re in an era of transformational growth in the resource space...

And because gold has become so central, so essential, so much larger than it used to be, it’s going to create bigger price swings than before.

So is the price of gold up today? Down today?

As a diehard goldbug who’s been doing this for a long time – nearly two decades now – I don’t care about these day-to-day movements.

What I care about is the much larger overall growth trend — and the investments that’ll make money on this growth trend, regardless of what the daily price says.

I completely understand why readers want to know what’s happening today, tomorrow, and so on. I’ve been there myself.

But what I’m saying is it’s time to take a deep breath, to zoom out, and then to intentionally and thoughtfully make our move into the gold investments that’ll show us growth – and profits – in these weeks, months, and years ahead.

And I have some good news here: these gold investments are truly some of the most promising opportunities I’ve seen in my career... if you know where to look.

Because you see…

The speculations that I’m following are being driven by a single enormous catalyst…

And that catalyst is EXPLORATION.

After nearly a decade of neglect, especially in the junior mining space, we’re finally seeing a reversal of that negative trend.

Because the truth of the matter is that gold exploration is playing an intense game of catchup.

It’s trying to keep pace with all of the resource buying we’ve been seeing.

GERARDO:

Exactly.

It’s a dramatic shift — and it’s come on quite suddenly, and that’s why we're seeing the sky-high prices for gold.

I’ve obviously been following it closely... and as I just said, I’m ready, I’m here for it.

GERARDO:

Absolutely!

I’ve been very fortunate to do well.

But as you’ve said, it certainly makes it much easier when you’re moving with the market, and that’s why I’m so excited about what we’re seeing now.

And yes, I’ve certainly been a broken record about how we would be seeing something exactly like this.

And I’m just glad it’s here.

And, just as I’ve hoped, these record highs are ushering in a new era of historic exploration.

Everything is falling into place, which we’ll cover in detail in a moment.

GERARDO:

It’s so familiar, John, because that’s exactly what we’re seeing.

History doesn’t repeat itself… but it absolutely rhymes.

And while there aren’t new continents to discover, boy are we seeing many producers come up with new ways of scouring the globe.

Folks watching today have likely heard in the news about mining in the arctic circle... on the ocean floor, which was once thought impossible... and new sites in faraway deserts and jungles…

Jungles I’ve visited recently.

As grades decline, as old mines fall by the wayside, that’s exactly what we’re seeing.

It’s creating tremendous new opportunities and the world isn’t going to be the same again…

It’s changing.

And that’s what I’m excited about John – the flurry of new activity in key juniors that I’ve been following.

As I’ve said, my phone has been ringing off the hook, and I’ve been on calls all this week with a short list of explorers that are well positioned for this.

It’s what we’ve been waiting for.

GERARDO:

Absolutely.

Look, as I said, I’ve been at this for almost two decades now.

I’m just a simple guy with an incredible network of insiders, mining experts, and billionaires

And while I’m not a financier in the traditional sense…

I can absolutely call on my network to capitalize on an idea we believe in.

I started by getting my boots dirty, by visiting mine sites, by talking with geologists.

I’ve traveled all over the globe to multiple continents.

I’ve continued to rack up the frequent-flier miles.

Those who follow my buy-and-hold service Junior Resource Monthly know that I was just in the jungles of Peru, putting in 19-hour days, where I investigated multiple copper-gold projects in an area of the jungle inhabited by 17 different kinds of venomous snakes.

But it was worth it, there was so much to see and learn.

And those readers also know that I’ve been to almost all 50 states now, right here in the good ol’ US of A where we’re seeing a lot of new investments.

And that I’ve been tracking where domestic production is most profitable and most likely among juniors.

But you asked about speculations, John.

And that’s where my network is even more essential.

Speculations are high risk… high reward. That’s the business.

The greater reward is for those investors who are serious and who have the drive and the capital to make the most of it.

That’s why I have an entire publication dedicated to speculations called Junior Resource Speculator.

Which I’ve carefully designed to maximize these rewards during this explosive period of time.

Mark my words… this is a HISTORIC opportunity for those who know what to do

And that’s where the depth and breadth of my network has been part of the difference between success and failure.

GERARDO:

For sure.

Yes, I’ve been very fortunate, I got my start by working with several notable billionaires, and with industry insiders who aren’t famous but who know where the opportunities are.

But look, even knowing so many high-level players…

Speculating is still never as easy as it looks.

The key is how my network reveals speculative junior mining investments that can thrive in both good and hard times.

By the way, let me just say now...

For those who may worry we’ve missed it all,
I’d say not by a long shot

We’ve got a long way to go.

I’ll be blunt, for those still stuck on the day-to-day price of gold: we don’t need record highs to make money — these upper levels are enough, a few pullbacks aren’t going to change our positioning or the outlook.

And better still, they won’t change the returns we’re making.

The debt isn’t paid off, trillions are being added to the deficit, and the dollar index is going lower while bond yields are going higher.

And while that’s not sustainable… it’s incredibly beneficial to the gold price.

Now that momentum has returned to gold exploration, that’s what’s going to sustain our profits.

So we’re in a win-win situation.

I love Rick Rule and as you said, the late great Mr. James Dines, their insights, their candor, and how they cultivated relationships and opportunities.

But ultimately, it’s going to come down to what we’ve been talking about today, John: a new era in exploration.

Which is a welcome change... and it’s going to propel us, as I’ve said, to what I believe will be the biggest gains of my career.

GERARDO:

I always joke that the best stories are simple stories.

And that’s exactly what this was.

I’ve known the CEO and chairman of this company for almost 20 years.

This is a man that doesn’t excite easily.

So when he came to me and said, Gerardo, we have this incredible land package in a tier one jurisdiction, which is very similar to another historic gold district that has produced tens of millions of ounces of gold…

With similar types of rocks, in a similar belt, in the same part of the world…

My ears perked up.

I did my due diligence and checked the share structure, the players involved, the cost to drill…

And decided to pull the trigger.

Turned out to be a home run.

GERARDO:

Let’s do it.

About a year and a half ago, a CEO of a junior came up to me with this idea…

He said there’s this amazing land package in a past producing silver district. But it’s been fragmented into eight different blocks.

Nobody has been able to put it back together because the landowners don’t like each other.

So I told him what one of my mentors told me – you can have an idea, but can you execute on it? If you can, give me a call.

So this CEO worked his butt off for over a year trying to put it back together.

Because he knew the grades were high.

But it hasn’t been explored since the 1940s.

It’s never been drilled below the water table.

There are kilometers of silver rich veins that have never been explored with modern technology and techniques.

Long story short, I just spoke with this CEO again this morning and the drills are finally turning today.

And the crazy thing about this project?

We’ve already racked up 600% gains
without a single drill hole result

So now that the drills are turning, the fun really begins.

GERARDO:

This was another opportunity from my network, John. Again, not in the news, not on the internet.

We got in very early and took down the bulk of the first couple of financings.

And I’ll be honest with you…

We got very lucky on this one.

Because with the very first drill hole, this company discovered one of the largest and richest North American lithium deposits in recent memory.

But it’s not only lithium they’re digging up…

They’ve added tantalum and cesium – critical metals that China has banned the export of to various places in the world.

Demand is only increasing and supply is limited.

That’s why this opportunity is so massive.

In fact, it’s one of my single largest personal shareholdings.

We’re already up 15x our entry price…

And I absolutely believe we’ll
be up 100x in due time

GERARDO:

Look. We're coming into a historic era for exploration for several reasons.

The first, for over a decade, companies misallocated capital. I was there for that first cycle where they were just throwing money around and not doing anything with it, frankly.

And what happened after that is we had a pullback in the gold price around 2011-2012 and boards of directors came and said no more money for exploration. You guys clearly don't know what to do with it.

So we had almost a decade where exploration was just not funded.

And that created an opportunity for a lot of our network that was out there in the mountains discovering new copper-gold belts, discovering new techniques, and testing theories while no one was looking.

COVID actually helped that because we had field teams out there doing phenomenal work because they had the time to be able to do that.

So what's driving all this? You have the major US indices that are coming off historic highs and still way overpriced, by the way.

In the tech sector, there's going to be capital rotation that is happening as we speak that is going to be historic.

There is a lot of money coming out of the major US indices because of volatility with tariffs, with China, with trade wars, you name it.

Second to that and probably more important than that, we have a bond market that's really fragile.

And I can see a dislocation in the next twelve to eighteen months. And, look, the bond market is the global economic benchmark.

If the bond market breaks, everything breaks. Right?

And then there is the tech sector, where money is coming out of the major US indices.

This is a large reason why gold has reached record highs. Because money coming out of these different sectors is looking for safe harbor a little bit at a time because the gold space is small.

Only so much capital can go in at one time. It's actually the reason why Bitcoin's making new all-time highs, too.

Capital is looking for a safe home, and exploration companies and mining resource stocks are so undervalued historically relative to the major US indices. They are at historic lows.

So a little bit of capital into this sector is already starting to ignite 500%... 600%... even 1,000% gains. We’re at the very early cusp of that cycle

And let me just say, anybody that looks at gold and says, “well, man, I remember when it was a thousand dollars. It's three thousand dollars now. The run must be over. Let me be safe.”

Nothing could be further from the truth, and I couldn't be more excited for what’s coming.

I'm as busy as I've ever been, and, frankly, I've never had this type of trading environment, macro wise.

I'm over the moon right now.

These are the cycles that we dream about, and I’m absolutely going to take advantage of it for myself, for friends, for family, and, of course, for subscribers.

GERARDO:

Now we’re getting to the good stuff.

That’s what Junior Resource Speculator is all about.

It comes down to a couple catalytic triggers.

With gold at record highs, major producers will have really healthy balance sheets, making it easier to just buy an exploration company rather than do it themselves.

So we’re seeing a lot of acquisitions, which is going to continue.

Because if you have, say, a world-class 6-million-ounce gold deposit, every time the gold price goes up $100…

$600 million is added to the net present value of the deposit.

So imagine what a thousand-dollar price jump in gold does for the deposit. That will spur bidding wars and premiums like never before.

Another trigger is expansion, which has to happen because once your gold is out of the ground, you need to replenish it.

That leads to aggressive exploration.

It’s not a coincidence that mid tiers and majors are now starting to come to these juniors and saying “hey, you discovered this whole area and your company is only worth $50 million. But we’ll give you $100 million to explore for us over the next three years for a 50% stake.”

That scenario is going to become more and more common in the months ahead.

As a result, there will be companies
that go from $20 million to $100 million to $1 billion in twelve-month timeframes

You can do the math on what a $20 million market cap to a $1 billion market cap does for you as a speculator if you own the stock.

Again, it’s high risk and extremely high reward.

Look, this is a premium publication for advanced investors — it’s a trading service where we focus on speculations.

And I’ve made a very comfortable life from it.

GERARDO:

I appreciate the kind words.

I’ve designed Junior Resource Speculator to be all about access.

Truly unique, VIP-level access to the best, the most promising, the most lucrative speculations in junior mining

And this begins, as you might expect, with what’s going to make a real, life-changing difference in your portfolio.

First, there’s ACCESS TO GROWTH.

That’s where I cover the high-risk, high-reward speculations that can pull in triple-digit resource wins in a matter of months.

As you heard earlier, I’m targeting juniors with acquisitions, with expansions, who are undertaking aggressive exploration.

My goal is to show you research you can’t find anywhere at any price — because it goes everywhere I do.

I’m not holding anything back here.

These are the same juniors I’m putting my own money into... and believe me, I’m picky when it comes to finding opportunities that I think are worth my time.

And you’re getting a lot more than just what I can find, because Junior Resource Speculator also grants you ACCESS TO THE TOP INSIDERS of the mining world.

The interviews, the on-site visits, the behind-the-scenes first look.

The vetted deals from veteran resource experts.

If you’ve ever wanted a front-row seat to the board rooms, family offices, and billionaires who are moving behind the curtain…

Then this is your chance to join me in what I think is going to be a historic gold bull market

This is what it’s all about.

And last and most important, Junior Resource Speculator is about DIRECT ACCESS TO MY RESEARCH.

Where you can ask any question you like, and where you can discover speculations with upsides you didn’t even know were possible.

Because you’ll receive full access to my Speculator Sessions.

Every single month you’ll be able to tune in live and hear about what’s moving in the space.

It’s my unvarnished opinion... what I’m buying, what I’m avoiding, what I’ve heard from the key players in the business.

All of it.

My goal with every Speculator Session is to drill down to what’s happening in the industry, get right to what’ll show us returns, and then most of all... to answer your questions.

I’m not holding anything back.

You can ask me anything and I’ll do my best to give you answers that’ll help you find speculations that you’d never hear about otherwise.

Because Junior Resource Speculator is about access, and this is your all-access pass.

GERARDO:

Yes, that’s exactly right.

As you’ve heard, it’s no exaggeration how quickly things are moving right now

As you’ve said John, it’s the Age of Exploration.

We’re in an all-new era of acquisitions... expansions... and aggressive exploration.

This is not a wait-and-see period.

As investment into gold exploration rebounds, after years and years of neglect, this is giving us unique, once-in-a-decade timing.

I’ve put my top three explorers into a report so that serious investors don’t miss a moment in maximizing their returns.

It’s called The Age of Exploration: Three Early Stage Speculations in Silver, Gold, and Uranium.

The moment you become a member of Junior Resource Speculator you’ll receive the full details on these three junior mining companies.

As we’ve said earlier, 525%, 550%, 608%... this is just the beginning of what’s possible when you’re invested in the right speculations.

Names, ticker symbols, my full analysis... it’s the full insider-only story on these companies.

It includes exclusive interviews with the management teams of these companies.

I know these guys, I’ve worked with their teams of geologists before.

• The first is an explorer with an entire package of projects: copper-gold, zinc-silver.
  • Their CEO has led me to gains several times now.
  • I’ve made real money: tens of thousands, even hundreds of thousands under his leadership.

• The second is a gold explorer and drilling expert.
  • Again, their team has shown us success in the past.
  • These guys are the best in the business.

• The third is a uranium exploration company.
  • We haven’t gotten much into uranium here — but in the same way I got to gold before everyone else in the mainstream caught up, that’s how we’re positioning for uranium.
  • There are dozens of major nuclear power plants under construction as we speak, and they’re going to all need fuel. Including new plants right here in the US.
  • This uranium exploration company will show us stellar returns.

And then of course, it doesn’t stop here.

This isn’t a one-off report.

I’ll keep you updated on these companies in each one of my Speculator Sessions, every month, all your questions answered.

These are the kinds of speculations that can truly change your portfolio... and your life

They certainly have for me.

GERARDO:

That’s right.

It’s my blood sweat and tears in this stuff.

This is where I put my own money.

And it’s where I make money!

Real money.

It’s all in my portfolio.

And in this new report.

And in your monthly Speculator Sessions.

Look, I’m no salesman, I leave that to our publisher.

But I’ve put everything I can into making this an outstanding deal for the price.

And they won’t charge you a dime if it isn’t for you.

Simple as that.

GERARDO:

There it is.

It’ll only happen once.

As I’ve said, I expect this to be one of the biggest moments of my career.

Gold buys are sky high, money is changing hands, this is where it’s all happening.

Your report has it all.

Thank you for watching everyone, and I hope to see you soon at the next Speculator Session.

We’ve got a lot to cover.
