The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP).

The sight of a scorpion moving towards you with its stinger raised can send a chill down the spine of the bravest among us. If you watched Fear Factor, you saw how terrified the contestants were to come face to face with these creatures. While scorpions have been portrayed as the stuff of nightmares, scientists have found that they can be useful in the fight against brain cancer. The study, which was conducted by City of Hope, a consortium of research centers in different cities around America focused on studying cancer, suggests that scorpion venom can help to guide our T cells to cancer tumors in the brain so that the immune system then attacks and kills them off. It is like painting a target so that a marksman can identify friend from foe. This isn't the first time that animal toxins are being used in medicine. In the ancient Roman Empire, snake venom was often used by healers to treat leprosy, small pox, wounds and fever. In some cultures, epileptic patients have been subjected to rattlesnake bites and reports say those seizures stopped. Currently, modern medicine leverages snake venom in the development of antivenom. So, the use of venom in medicine isn't such a new thing. The City of Hope team is working to tweak the chlorotoxin dosage and plan bigger studies to test how well their approach works in larger population samples. As they continue their work to boost how the immune system targets GBM tumors, other teams at entities like CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) are also working to develop more effective chemotherapy treatment options since the fight against cancer is an all-hands-on-deck battle in which every available weapon has a role to play. 

CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) is a clinical stage biotechnology company specializing in the development of novel treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain and central nervous system.

The company was founded in 2017 and is headquartered in Houston, Texas.

Organ Targeted Therapeutics

The company’s lead drug candidate, Berubicin, is proposed for the treatment of glioblastoma multiforme (“GBM”), an aggressive and incurable form of brain cancer. Berubicin also has potential to treat other central nervous system malignancies. Based on limited clinical data, Berubicin appears to be the first anthracycline to cross the blood brain barrier in the adult brain, and it was the subject of a successful Phase 1 study which found the MDT and produced efficacy data as well.

CNS holds a worldwide exclusive license to the Berubicin chemical compound. The company has acquired all requisite data and know-how from Reata Pharmaceuticals Inc. related to a completed Phase I clinical trial of Berubicin in malignant brain tumors. In this trial, 44% of patients experienced a statistically significant improvement in clinical benefit. In 2017, CNS entered into a collaboration and asset purchase agreement with Reata.

CNS intends to explore the potential of Berubicin to treat other diseases, including pancreatic and ovarian cancers and lymphoma. The company is also examining plans to develop combination therapies that include Berubicin.

CNS estimates that more than $25 million in private capital and grants were invested in Berubicin prior to the company’s $9.8 million IPO in November 2019.

CNS intends to submit an IND for Berubicin during the fourth quarter of 2020 and expects to commence a Phase II clinical trial of Berubicin for the treatment of GBM in the U.S. in Q1 2021. A sub-licensee partner was awarded a $6 million EU/Polish National Center for Research and Development grant to undertake a Phase II trial of Berubicin in adults and a first-ever Phase I trial in pediatric GBM patients in Poland in 2021.

The company’s second drug candidate, WP1244, is a novel DNA binding agent licensed from the MD Anderson Cancer Center. In preclinical studies, WP1244 proved to be 500-times more potent than the chemotherapeutic agent, daunorubicin, in inhibiting tumor cell proliferation. The company has entered into a sponsored research agreement with the MD Anderson Cancer Center to further the development of WP1244.

CNS Pharmaceuticals recently engaged U.S.-based Pharmaceutics International Inc. and Italian BSP Pharmaceuticals SpA for the production of the Berubicin drug product. The company has implemented a dual-track manufacturing strategy to mitigate COVID-19-related risks, diversify its supply chain and provide for localized availability of Berubicin. CNS has already completed synthesis of Berubicin’s active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) and has shipped the API to both manufacturers in order to prepare an injectable form of Berubicin for clinical use.

Global Brain Tumor Therapeutics Market

The high recurrence rate of malignant brain tumors is due to reappearance of focal masses, indicating that a sub-population of tumor cells in these cancers may be insensitive to current therapies and may be responsible for reinitiating tumor growth. This necessitates the development of newer drugs in the market that demonstrate greater efficacy in treating such aggressive cancers.

A global increase in neurological disorders has placed increased attention on cancers of the brain over the past decade. Neurological disorders are becoming one of the most prevalent types of disorders, due to longer life expectancy, greater exposure to infection and an increasingly sedentary lifestyle. Because few treatments for primary and metastatic cancers of the brain exist, costs are high and have acted as a restraint for the brain tumor therapeutics market.

Despite progress in surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapeutic strategies, effective treatments for brain cancer are limited by a lack of specific therapies for the brain and the difficulty in transporting therapeutic compounds across the blood brain barrier. Therefore, there is a significant need for novel and effective therapeutic drugs and strategies that prolong survival and improve quality of life for brain tumor patients.

Several companies are making significant investments into R&D, which is expected to bring more treatment options to the market in the near future. Industry reports consistently project continued growth in the market.

One report estimates that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach a valuation of $2.74 billion in 2023, with the market expected to register a CAGR of 11% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2023. Another report projects that the global brain tumor therapeutics market will reach $3.4 billion by 2025, up from $2.25 billion in 2019 (https://nnw.fm/eDUjp).

ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF).

ESGold (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) outlined the prospective potential of its 1,734-hectare concession in Colombia's Bolívar region, where historical NI 43-101 data and prior operator work identified a 3.4 km by 400-800 m structural corridor with artisanal mining, high-grade channel samples up to ~170 g/t Au, broad lower-grade drill intercepts, and untested depth potential below 200 m, consistent with a large mineralized system in one of South America's most prolific gold-producing districts.

To view the full press release, visit https://ibn.fm/3oZl5

ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) is a fully permitted, pre-production resource company on a clear path to near-term gold and silver production. With established infrastructure in place and a significant gold-silver resource, the company is uniquely positioned to generate near-term cash flow while unlocking the full potential of its Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Quebec—one of the top mining jurisdictions in the world.

ESGold is building a foundation for long-term growth through a dual-track strategy: cash-flow generation from tailings reprocessing to fund district-scale exploration.

The Montauban site, which operated as a mine for over 80 years, is now undergoing its first-ever systematic exploration program to determine just how large the remaining deposit may be. Near-term cash flow from tailings reprocessing will be used to fund exploration, with the goal of increasing the resource base and uncovering new discoveries across the expansive land package.

ESGold is advancing a scalable and replicable clean extraction model that turns legacy mine sites into revenue generating assets while setting a new industry benchmark for sustainable resource recovery.

The recent completion of a C$3.4M financing has enabled ESGold to initiate the final construction phase of its mill circuit—moving the company decisively toward production of gold and silver in Q3 2025.

Montauban Gold-Silver Project: Production Imminent

Located approximately 80 kilometers west of Quebec City, the Montauban Project is a past-producing gold-silver mine with surface and underground mineralization and over 900,000 tonnes of historical tailings. ESGold has invested over C$15 million to date, building out roads, power access, and a 16,000 sq. ft. processing facility. The company recently completed a C$3.4M financing to begin final construction of the mill circuit.

The company is fully permitted to enter into production that is expected to commence in Q3 2025 with a capacity of 500 tonnes per day, scaling to 1,000 tpd. An updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) is currently underway to reflect all-time high gold prices and the anticipated upside from the near-surface resource.

Parallels Between Broken Hill & Montauban

Broken Hill, discovered in 1883 in Australia, became the world’s largest source of silver, lead, and zinc—producing over $100 billion worth of metals. What made it unique was that the richest mineral zones were hidden deep underground in a twisted, boomerang-like shape, and it took decades to fully understand just how large the deposit really was.

Geologists now believe ESGold’s Montauban Project in Quebec may share similar traits. Like Broken Hill, it contains high-grade silver, lead, and zinc, along with gold—and sits within the same type of geological system known to host large, high-value mineral deposits. The rock formations, mineral assemblages, and structural complexity all suggest that Montauban could be hiding much more than what’s been historically uncovered. Academic studies now support this possible geological parallel, pointing to further evidence suggesting Montauban was formed under similar conditions as Broken Hill.

Exploration Upside

With production on the horizon, ESGold is advancing a major exploration campaign. Montauban has never undergone systematic modern exploration.

The company is currently completing a large-scale Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) survey—a powerful 3D imaging technology that will define the size, shape, and continuity of the mineralized system. ANT is already showing strong results, with imaging going beyond the original 400m depth target and now expected to exceed 800m. This cutting-edge technology has the potential to reveal the full extent of the anomaly for the first time in Montauban’s 110-year history.

Scalable, Replicable, Clean Mining

Montauban is also part of a broader vision. Across Canada and globally, there are hundreds of orphaned or legacy mine sites that remain unrehabilitated despite containing valuable residual metals in tailings. Quebec alone is home to more than 259 of these sites, highlighting the scale of the opportunity. ESGold is advancing a scalable and replicable clean extraction model that transforms legacy sites into productive assets while setting a new benchmark for sustainable resource recovery.

The company has also performed testing that utilizes Dundee Sustainable Technologies’ CLEVR Process™, a proprietary non-cyanide extraction method that achieved 90.9% gold recovery in lab testing. This clean processing approach remains a valuable and scalable asset supporting ESGold’s near-term production and exploration growth strategy.

As a complement to its core mining operations, ESGold is developing clean technology solutions through a joint venture with DMCMS Inc. This initiative includes a polymer division that manufactures environmentally friendly products such as road stabilizers, dust suppressants, and other industrial blends—expanding the company’s sustainable commercial footprint.

Market Opportunity

ESGold is operating in a unique and specialized segment of the mining industry—reprocessing and revitalizing legacy mine sites. The Montauban Project offers both near-term cash flow and long-term growth potential by converting tailings into revenue while systematically exploring for additional high-value mineral endowments. The company’s established infrastructure, full permitting, and reclamation approvals reduce development risk and enhance execution timelines.

The broader green mining market is projected to reach $15.92 billion by 2030, according to Grand View Research. This growth is being driven by increased demand for responsible extraction methods, ESG-aligned practices, and critical mineral security. With construction underway at its fully permitted Montauban site—and exploration advancing along a Broken Hill-type geological model—ESGold is well positioned to emerge as Canada’s next premier gold and silver producer.

Swanson Gold Project

The Swanson Gold Project spans 16,600 hectares and hosts the Swanson, Bartec, and Jolin gold deposits along a major structural break in the Abitibi Gold Belt. The 2024 Mineral Resource Estimate for the Swanson deposit outlines 123,400 oz of gold in Indicated category (2.1 million tonnes at 1.8 g/t) and 64,500 oz in Inferred category (872,000 tonnes at 2.3 g/t). Located 66 km north of Val-d’Or, the Project is accessible by road and rail and benefits from more than 36,000 meters of historical drilling, along with existing infrastructure including an 80-meter decline portal.

Recent work—including airborne magnetics, soil sampling, and Induced Polarization surveys—has identified multiple high-priority targets and resulted in several high-grade gold assay results, including a grab sample grading 11.71 g/t Au at Jolin, which points to significant upside as the Company prepares to test multiple new zones.

LaFleur has defined over 50 drill targets at Swanson and nearby prospects (Bartec, Jolin, Marimac) and is completing a minimum 5,000-metre diamond drilling beginning in June 2025. LaFleur Minerals has also initiated permitting for a 100,000-tonne surface bulk sample averaging 1.89 g/t Au, which it plans to process at the Beacon Gold Mill as part of a near-term production strategy.

Beacon Gold Mill

LaFleur’s 100%-owned Beacon Gold Mill is a fully refurbished and permitted mill and tailings storage facility capable of processing 750 tonnes per day (tpd), with potential expansion to 1,800 tpd, with access to numerous nearby gold deposits that could be prime sources of ore. Located only 60 km from Swanson, it underwent a $20 million upgrade by Monarch Mining in 2022 and has been under care and maintenance since early 2023. LaFleur is finalizing a C$5-6 million restart plan, ramping up production by late 2025 into early 2026, processing Swanson mineralized material and assessing custom milling opportunities for regional deposits, creating multiple potential revenue streams.

The Beacon Gold Mill is a de-risked, proven asset that benefits from existing infrastructure, including access to roads, power, and skilled labor, and further enhances the overall value proposition of LaFleur by providing a clear path to production and potential revenue-generation.

Market Opportunity

LaFleur Minerals is targeting the gold mining and processing market in Québec’s Abitibi Gold Belt, one of the world’s most productive gold regions. Its fully permitted Beacon Gold Mill, with a 750 tpd capacity and authorization to process 1.8 million tonnes of tailings, is strategically positioned to handle material from LaFleur’s Swanson Gold Project and to offer custom milling for nearby deposits such as Granada Gold. The company projects annual production of over 30,000 ounces of gold once in full production, with potential for significant revenue generation based on prevailing market prices.

Global demand for gold remains robust, driven by geopolitical risk, inflation hedging, and central bank accumulation. The World Gold Council forecasts 3-5% annual demand growth through 2030, with average prices expected between $3,200 and $3,500/oz. Within this environment, Québec’s top-tier mining jurisdiction—ranked fifth globally by the Fraser Institute in 2023—offers streamlined permitting and access to flow-through capital. LaFleur’s low-cost Beacon restart (C$5-6 million) and proximity to more than 100 active and historical mines position the company to fill a growing need for small-to-medium scale custom milling.

At Swanson, LaFleur plans to grow its current 187,900-ounce resource toward 1 million ounces through its 2025 drilling program. This hub-and-spoke strategy, leveraging centralized milling and strong local infrastructure, reduces development risk and strengthens LaFleur’s foothold in one of the most attractive gold belts in the world.

The Arctic project is Trilogy’s flagship asset and one of the highest-grade known copper deposits in the world, with an average grade of approximately 5% copper equivalent. Located roughly 470 kilometers northwest of Fairbanks, Alaska, Arctic is a volcanogenic massive sulphide (VMS) deposit hosting copper, zinc, lead, gold, and silver. The project is at the feasibility stage and is currently undergoing permitting activities.

According to the 2023 Feasibility Study, Arctic will support a 10,000 tonne-per-day open-pit mining operation over a 13-year mine life. Based on long-term metal prices of $3.65/lb copper, $1.15/lb zinc, $1.00/lb lead, $1,650/oz gold, and $21.00/oz silver, the project demonstrates a pre-tax NPV8% of $1.5 billion and an IRR of 25.8%. After-tax, the NPV8% is $1.1 billion with a 22.8% IRR. At April 2025 spot metal prices, the after-tax NPV8% increases to $1.9 billion with a 31.1% IRR.

The project’s metallurgy supports high recoveries: 92.1% for copper, 88.5% for zinc, and 61.3% for lead. Life-of-mine payable production is projected to total 1.9 billion pounds of copper, 2.2 billion pounds of zinc, 335 million pounds of lead, 423,000 ounces of gold, and 36 million ounces of silver. Cash costs are expected to average $0.72 per pound of payable copper, with all-in costs estimated at $1.61 per pound.

Bornite Project

Located approximately 25 kilometers southwest of Arctic, the Bornite project is a large-scale carbonate replacement copper deposit with significant upside. According to the 2025 Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), Bornite is expected to support a 6,000 tonne-per-day underground operation over a 17-year mine life, using re-purposed infrastructure from the Arctic Project.

Bornite contains an estimated 6.5 billion pounds of inferred copper. The PEA outlines pre-tax NPV8% of $552.1 million and IRR of 23.6%, with an after-tax NPV8% of $393.9 million and IRR of 20.0%, based on a copper price of $4.20/lb. Total payable copper production over the life of mine is projected at 1.9 billion pounds.

Bornite’s mineralization occurs in stacked, stratabound zones rich in chalcopyrite, bornite, and chalcocite. A subset of the South Reef zone offers high-grade underground mining potential, further enhancing Bornite’s future optionality.

Exploration Pipeline

The Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects span 471,796 acres and include more than 30 additional mineralized prospects beyond Arctic and Bornite. These lie along two geologically distinct and highly mineralized belts: the Ambler Schist Belt and the Bornite Carbonate Sequence.

The Ambler Schist Belt features multiple VMS-style prospects along its 100-kilometer strike length, including Sunshine, Snow, Nora, Shungnak, and BT. Neighboring deposits like Smucker (Teck) and Sun (Valhalla Metals) affirm the district’s regional potential. Ten of Trilogy’s VMS prospects have been drill tested with encouraging results.

Meanwhile, the Bornite Carbonate Sequence extends 16 kilometers along the Cosmos Hills and hosts additional targets such as Pardner Hill and Aurora Mountain. These zones show strong signs of copper and cobalt mineralization and were partially tested during the Kennecott era, suggesting significant room for expansion.

Together, these assets form the foundation of a multi-decade development and discovery platform in one of the most prospective undeveloped mining districts in North America.

Market Opportunity

Trilogy Metals is poised to benefit from long-term structural demand for copper and other critical minerals essential to electrification, energy infrastructure, and clean technologies. Copper, in particular, is expected to see major supply shortfalls due to underinvestment and accelerating demand from power grids, EVs, and data centers.

According to a Grand View Research report, the global copper market is projected to grow from $241.88 billion in 2024 to $339.95 billion by 2030, at a CAGR of 6.5%, driven by the energy transition and rising infrastructure investments.

Trilogy’s Arctic and Bornite projects are strategically located in Alaska, a top-tier mining jurisdiction with strong permitting frameworks and growing federal and state-level support, including recent executive orders streamlining approvals for the Ambler Access Project. The company also maintains a $50 million shelf prospectus and an active $25 million ATM equity program to fund future development.

West Vault Mining Inc. (TSX.V: WVM) (OTCQX: WVMDF)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight West Vault Mining Inc. (TSX.V: WVM) (OTCQX: WVMDF).

Gold has surged to new record highs – recently surpassing $3,780 per ounce – as investors worldwide turn to the metal's proven role as a hedge against inflation, currency weakness, and financial-market volatility (ibn.fm/29CUk). With expectations of rate cuts, central bank demand, and softer global growth, analysts see further upside.  In this environment, quality gold mining companies offer powerful leverage, where even modest price increases can generate outsized equity returns. West Vault Mining (TSX.V: WVM) (OTCQX: WVMDF), a Nevada-focused gold company, has positioned itself to capture this opportunity while carefully controlling downside risk. The company's strategy is simple: deliver low-risk exposure to high-margin gold ounces in one of the world's safest, most mining-friendly jurisdictions.

West Vault Mining Inc. (TSX.V: WVM) (OTCQX: WVMDF) is a development-stage gold company focused on maximizing shareholder value through a low-risk, cash-conservative strategy. The company has followed a disciplined model of acquiring, advancing, and holding high-quality gold projects in premier jurisdictions, with the goal of monetizing these assets as market conditions become favorable. Its core emphasis is on controlling dilution and timing development decisions to optimize shareholder returns across the commodity cycle.

Since its formation following the successful C$424 million sale of West Timmins Mining in 2009, West Vault has remained laser-focused on opportunities in North America’s most prolific gold-bearing regions. This strategy has led to the acquisition and advancement of its flagship Hasbrouck Gold Project in Nevada, which is permitted and construction ready.

With a highly experienced management team and board that emphasize transparency, capital discipline, and long-term alignment with shareholders, West Vault is positioned as a unique vehicle offering exposure to gold price upside without the risks associated with early-stage construction.

The company is headquartered in Vancouver, British Columbia.

Project

West Vault controls a 100% interest in the Hasbrouck Gold Project, located between Tonopah and Goldfield in Nevada’s prolific Walker Lane Trend. The project comprises two primary oxide gold deposits—Three Hills and Hasbrouck—spanning a 10,500-acre land package. Both deposits are situated above the water table, with excellent infrastructure access including nearby grid power, highway connections, and water rights.

The company’s strategy is grounded in maintaining shovel-ready optionality. The most recent Pre-feasibility Study “base case”, completed in January 2023 by RESPEC Company LLC, reaffirmed the strength of the Hasbrouck Project, demonstrating an after-tax Net Present Value (NPV5%) of US$206 million and an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 51% at a gold price of $1,790/oz—well below current prices. In the Pre-feasibility Study sensitivity table, a $2,600/oz gold price resulted in an after-tax Net Present Value (NPV5%) of US$503 million and an Internal Rate of Return (IRR) of 110%. Phase 1 (Three Hills Mine) is expected to require a modest initial capital investment of US$66 million in 2023 dollars, with the Phase 2 (Hasbrouck Mine) development planned to be funded through free cash flow from Three Hills. Average gold production is projected at 71,000 ounces per year with an all-in sustaining cost (AISC) of US$877 per ounce.

The project benefits from a low strip ratio (1.1:1), no pre-stripping requirements at the first pit, and a simple run-of-mine heap leach process with a 75% average gold recovery based on 13 metallurgical test programs. In addition to its existing Mineral Reserves and Resources, West Vault retains strong exploration upside, including intercepts outside the current resource model and a 1% NSR royalty on properties adjacent to Hasbrouck, enhancing long-term value potential.

Market Opportunity

West Vault’s cash-conservative approach and construction-ready asset position the company to capitalize on favorable shifts in the gold market without taking on near-term development or financing risk.

According to J.P. Morgan Research, gold prices are forecast to average $3,675 per ounce by the fourth quarter of 2025 and trend toward $4,000 per ounce by mid-2026, driven by persistent geopolitical tensions, demand rebasing, and recessionary tailwinds. With its permitted status, minimal overhead, and leverage to gold price appreciation, West Vault is strategically positioned to benefit from these macroeconomic tailwinds.
