Projects

Arctic Project

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.

CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP)

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

Glioblastoma is a deadly type of brain cancer which progresses rapidly and kills victims within months. For nearly two decades, no significant progress has been made in developing an effective treatment against this malignancy. Now, a new preclinical study using animal models has unveiled a potential breakthrough that could eliminate these tumors. The study, whose findings were published in the journal Nature, was conducted by scientists at the startup Trogenix. The team is made up of scientists at the Cancer Institute at University College London, the Royal Infirmary at Edinburgh, and the University of Edinburgh. The team developed SSEs technology (Synthetic Super-Enhancers) that entails using a viral vector to carry genetic instructions into glioblastoma tumors. The genetic instructions tell the tumor cells to make a toxic substance within the cells themselves, and also cause the body’s immune system to target these cancer cells aggressively. This early study is also notable for not triggering any adverse events in the subjects. This is rare because existing cancer treatments often trigger different side effects that can be so severe that treatment has to be halted or the patients suffer serious impediments to their quality of life during and after treatment. The team hopes to start trials involving human subjects this year in order to move the therapy quickly through the development process. Prof. Steve Pollard, Trogenix’s Chief Scientific Officer, said their study shows that what was previously taken to be impossible, that is, totally eliminating glioblastoma tumors while preventing recurrence for a long time, could now be achieved. This advanced “Trojan horse” method could mark a major shift in the way this deadly brain cancer is treated in the years to come. As the team advances their approach through the next phases involving human participants, other companies like CNS Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: CNSP) are also hitting their drug development milestones and the treatment options for people with a glioblastoma diagnosis could soon increase significantly. 

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).

Schryburt Lake – Ontario, Canada

Through a Joint Venture Option Agreement, Canamera may earn up to a 90% interest in the Schryburt Lake Project, a multi-center carbonatite-hosted REE–Nb system defined by four priority targets: Blue Jay, Goldfinch, Blackbird, and Starling.

These prospects exhibit coincident thorium radiometric highs, coherent magnetic bodies, surface anomalies, and historical trenching. Together, they outline the potential for a vertically extensive and multi-center REE–Nb system. Planned work includes a ~1,000-meter heli-supported scout drilling program following permitting and community consultation.

Garrow – Ontario, Canada

The Garrow Project covers 2,182 hectares located 43 km north-northeast of North Bay and is accessible year-round with strong local infrastructure. Canamera holds an option to acquire a 100% interest in the property.

Regional geochemical datasets include 26 samples above 500 ppm REE across Ontario, and three of these high-value anomalies occur within the Garrow Township area, making it a compelling target for early-stage exploration, including property-wide soil sampling and geophysics to delineate initial drill targets.

Market Opportunity

Rare earth elements play a central role in high-growth industries including electric vehicles, wind turbines, robotics, high-performance electronics, defense systems, and medical imaging, underpinning global trends in electrification, automation, and advanced manufacturing. Their application in permanent magnets, optics and lasers, catalysts, and nuclear and medical technologies positions them as foundational materials for both industrial innovation and national security.

Global demand for rare earth elements is projected to triple—from 59,000 tonnes in 2022 to 176,000 tonnes by 2035—driven by rapid EV adoption and wind-power expansion, with supply expected to lag by up to 30%, according to McKinsey & Company. The global REE market, valued at $3.95 billion in 2024, is forecast to reach $6.3 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate of approximately 8.6%, according to Grand View Research, reflecting a sustained and widening supply-demand imbalance that supports new project development.

China currently controls approximately 60% of global rare earth mining and about 90% of processing capacity, reinforcing persistent price volatility and supply-chain concentration that have been highlighted by historical export restrictions, environmental crackdowns, and geopolitical disruptions. In response, North American governments have accelerated initiatives to strengthen domestic critical-minerals supply chains, including $1 billion in U.S. Department of Energy funding opportunities and Canada’s C$1.5 billion Critical Minerals Infrastructure Fund. Together, these structural shortages, policy tailwinds, and long-term electrification trends underscore the strategic relevance of Canamera’s diversified rare earth portfolio across Brazil, the United States, and Canada.

Soligenix Inc. (NASDAQ: SNGX) is a late-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing treatments for rare diseases with high unmet medical needs. Operating through two key segments, the company’s Specialized BioTherapeutics division is dedicated to oncology and inflammation therapies, while its Public Health Solutions segment advances vaccines and therapeutics targeting biothreats and infectious diseases.

The company is actively advancing multiple late-stage clinical programs, including HyBryte™ (SGX301), a novel photodynamic therapy for cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Additional candidates in development target psoriasis (SGX302), oral mucositis (SGX942), and Behçet’s disease (SGX945), while its public health efforts focus on heat-stable vaccines for ricin poisoning (RiVax®), Ebola (SuVax™), and Marburg (MarVax™) viruses, that have been supported by non-dilutive government grants and contracts of approximately $60 million to date.

With a diversified pipeline, multiple orphan and fast-track designations, and collaborations with government agencies, Soligenix is uniquely positioned for potential regulatory approvals and commercialization.

The company is headquartered in Princeton, New Jersey.

Pipeline and Development Programs

Specialized BioTherapeutics

Soligenix’s Specialized BioTherapeutics division develops treatments for oncology and inflammatory diseases, focusing on conditions with few or no effective therapeutic options. HyBryte™ (synthetic hypericin) has completed a Phase 3 study for CTCL, demonstrating statistically significant efficacy, and a second confirmatory Phase 3 trial is actively enrolling patients to support potential regulatory submissions worldwide. If approved, it would be the first non-mutagenic photodynamic therapy for early-stage CTCL, addressing an unmet medical need. It has received orphan drug designations in the U.S. and Europe, as well as Fast Track designation in the U.S.

SGX302, a photodynamic therapy based on the same active ingredient as HyBryte™, is in clinical development for mild-to-moderate psoriasis, with positive Phase 1/2 proof-of-concept results, it is actively enrolling patients in a Phase 2a clinical trial.

SGX942, designed to reduce inflammation and tissue damage in oral mucositis associated with cancer treatment, is progressing as a potential first-in-class therapy.
SGX945, targeting aphthous ulcers in Behçet’s disease, is actively enrolling in a Phase 2a clinical trial and has received fast-track designation, highlighting the urgency of developing effective treatments for this rare inflammatory condition.

Public Health Solutions

The company’s Public Health Solutions segment focuses on medical countermeasures for biothreats and emerging infectious diseases, leveraging non-dilutive government funding to advance its programs.

Forward Industries Inc. (NASDAQ: FWDI)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Forward Industries Inc. (NASDAQ: FWDI).

Forward Industries (NASDAQ: FWDI) has appointed Mark Brazier as chief financial officer, effective April 13, 2026, succeeding Kathleen Weisberg, who will remain with the company as director of financial reporting. Brazier brings extensive experience in digital assets and institutional finance, most recently serving as CFO and head of regulatory at XBTO Global, and will oversee financial operations, capital structure, reporting and capital markets activities as the company continues to expand its position as a publicly traded Solana treasury company, with leadership citing his expertise at the intersection of traditional finance and crypto as key to supporting future growth.

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

Forward Industries Inc. (NASDAQ: FWDI) is building and managing a large-scale Solana (SOL) treasury, backed by some of the most influential investors in the digital asset space. The company’s strategy centers on long-term shareholder value through active participation in the Solana ecosystem, which it views as uniquely positioned to underpin future global capital markets due to its high throughput, deep economic activity, and growing developer adoption.

Through this shift, Forward Industries aims to create value by accumulating SOL and strategically deploying assets through on-chain opportunities including staking, lending, and participation in decentralized finance (DeFi). Forward also became the first U.S.-listed company to bring its common stock onto the Solana blockchain, reinforcing its focus on digital-native capital markets.

Forward Industries is headquartered in New York.

Solana Treasury Operations

In September 2025, Forward Industries closed a $1.65 billion private investment in public equity (PIPE) led by Multicoin Capital, Galaxy Digital, and Jump Crypto. The PIPE proceeds were deployed to acquire over 6.8 million SOL at an average price of $232 per token, with a portion executed on-chain via DFlow, a decentralized exchange aggregator built exclusively for Solana trading applications. The company has since staked the entirety of its treasury, actively generating yield through native Solana infrastructure and DeFi applications.

Forward’s strategy is centered on growing SOL per share, leveraging a range of tools including at-the-market (ATM) equity offerings and potential preferred equity issuance. The company is also targeting acquisitions and strategic partnerships within the Solana ecosystem to accelerate treasury yield and ecosystem alignment. As part of its infrastructure expansion, Forward tokenized its FORD shares on the Solana blockchain in collaboration with Superstate and plans to acquire an equity interest in the platform. The tokenized shares are expected to enable 24/7 trading, real-time settlement, and eligibility for use as DeFi collateral.

This shift was supported by the company’s board and executive team, whose composition reflects deep alignment with the Solana ecosystem — including leadership from Multicoin Capital and board observers from Galaxy and Jump Crypto. The company’s stated objective is to establish itself as the leading institutional participant in the Solana ecosystem, uniquely positioned to capture both economic yield and strategic exposure to one of the fastest-growing blockchain networks in the world.

Market Opportunity

Solana has emerged as the most performant blockchain in the digital asset space, processing over 8.9 billion transactions in Q2 2025 and sustaining approximately $3 billion in daily decentralized exchange (DEX) trading volume. Year to date, Solana applications have generated over $4 billion in fees and more than $1 billion in real economic value (REV), a proxy for free cash flow generated by the network.

DeFi participation, stablecoin usage, and developer activity have all grown substantially, with over $1.5 trillion in swap volume recorded through 2025. SOL staking yields have averaged over 8%, comprised of both inflationary rewards and organic yield from network activity. With 17 pending ETF applications and major institutions like BlackRock, Visa, PayPal, and HSBC integrating Solana, Forward Industries is positioned to benefit from a rising tide of institutional adoption, tokenization of real-world assets, and increased demand for high-performance blockchain infrastructure.

Leadership Team

Kyle Samani, Chairman of Forward Industries, is the co-founder and Managing Partner of Multicoin Capital, an early Solana backer and one of the largest holders of SOL. Samani contributed $25 million to the PIPE and is a key strategic leader behind Forward’s treasury roadmap.

Mike Pruitt, Interim CEO of Forward Industries, joined the board in February 2025 and was appointed Interim CEO in May. He is the founder of Avenel Financial Group and previously served as CEO of Chanticleer Holdings, bringing decades of public company leadership and capital markets experience.

Kathleen Weisberg, Chief Financial Officer of Forward Industries, was appointed CFO in July 2023 after serving as Corporate Controller since 2020. Weisberg is a CPA with prior roles at WW International, Symbol Technologies, and Ernst & Young.

Forward Industries Inc. (NASDAQ: FWDI), closed Tuesday's trading session at $4.55, off by 1.7279%, on 816,665 volume. The average volume for the last 3 months is 896,511 and the stock's 52-week low/high is $4.03/$46.

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.

The company’s growing asset base includes four core REE projects, Atikokan, Cameron, Pinard and Ogden Bear Lodge, positioned within highly prospective geological corridors.

Powermax Minerals is headquartered in Toronto, Ontario.

Projects

Atikokan REE Project – Northwestern Ontario

Powermax’s flagship Atikokan Rare Earth Element Project covers 9,416 hectares across three mineral claim blocks (A, B, and C) approximately 35 kilometers northwest of the town of Atikokan in the Thunder Bay Mining District. Located along the White Otter–Dashwa corridor, the project hosts REE-enriched granitic and pegmatitic systems supported by strong radiometric and geochemical signatures.

In 2025, Powermax completed airborne magnetic and gamma-ray spectrometric surveys, geological mapping, and geochemical sampling. An integrated interpretation released in November 2025 outlined a structural–geochemical corridor of REE enrichment, with Total Rare Earth Element (TREE) values from 254 ppm to 1,947 ppm across Blocks B and C. The company is currently advancing surface validation and target ranking for follow-up work.

Cameron REE Project – British Columbia

The Cameron Project, which the company holds an option to acquire, is located about 30 kilometers south of Revelstoke in the Kamloops Mining Division and comprises three contiguous mineral claims totaling 2,984 hectares.

Hosted within the Monashee Group, the property contains NYF-type granitic pegmatites and gneissic units known to carry both light and heavy REEs. Phase 1 exploration, completed under NI 43-101 recommendations, produced TREE values ranging from 17 ppm to 1,943 ppm, with heavy mineral concentrate samples up to 7,561 ppm. These findings confirmed consistent REE enrichment and led to the launch of Phase 2 exploration in October 2025 to expand mapping and refine drill targets.

Ogden Bear Lodge REE Project – Wyoming, USA

Powermax owns a 100% interest in the Ogden Bear Lodge Project, covering 22 lode claims (184 hectares) in Crook County, Wyoming. The property is prospective for high-grade neodymium-praseodymium (Nd/Pr) oxide mineralization and shares a border with Rare Element Resources’ Bear Lodge Critical Rare Earth Project. That neighboring project has received $24.2 million in U.S. Department of Energy support and a non-binding EXIM Bank letter of interest for up to $553 million in debt financing, highlighting the strategic value of this emerging U.S. REE district.

Pinard Rare Earths Project – Northern Ontario

In November 2025, Powermax Minerals announced plans to acquire a 100% interest in the Pinard Rare Earths Project, located roughly 70 kilometers north-northeast of Kapuskasing, Ontario. The property consists of 255 contiguous claims totaling 5,178 hectares within the Pinard Intrusive Rock Complex, an alkaline igneous system characterized by nepheline syenites and peralkaline granites commonly associated with REE-bearing mineralization.

Market Opportunity

Global demand for rare earth elements is projected to triple—from 59,000 tonnes in 2022 to 176,000 tonnes by 2035—driven by rapid electric-vehicle adoption and wind-power expansion, with supply expected to lag by up to 30%. The global REE market, valued at $3.95 billion in 2024, is forecast to reach $6.3 billion by 2030 at a compound annual growth rate of approximately 8.6%, according to Grand View Research.

China currently controls approximately 60% of REE mining and about 90% of processing capacity, prompting North American governments to accelerate domestic development. In 2025, the U.S. Department of Energy announced $1 billion in critical-minerals funding opportunities, while Canada’s C$1.5 billion Critical Minerals Infrastructure Fund supports projects through 2030. Together, this policy support and structural supply deficit highlight Powermax’s positioning within a strategically essential market tied to the clean-energy transition.

Perpetuals.com Ltd. (NASDAQ: PDC)

The QualityStocks Daily Newsletter would like to spotlight Perpetuals.com Ltd. (NASDAQ: PDC).

Perpetuals.com Ltd. (NASDAQ: PDC) is a publicly traded, regulated digital market infrastructure company enabling derivatives trading through a compliant, API-driven platform. Built as infrastructure rather than a balance-sheet exchange, the company provides brokers, institutions, and trading venues with regulated access to crypto and tokenized derivatives while avoiding custody, credit, and counterparty exposure by design.

The platform addresses a structural gap created as demand for leveraged digital asset exposure has outpaced the availability of compliant market infrastructure, particularly in Europe. Regulatory constraints limit how traditional brokers can legally offer crypto leverage, while many existing trading venues operate outside regulated frameworks. Perpetuals is designed to function within these constraints by combining institutional-grade execution, real-time settlement, and structured product capabilities under an EU-regulated market framework.

By operating as a regulated trading venue and infrastructure provider, Perpetuals enables market participants to access derivatives through transparent and auditable systems rather than offshore or unregulated alternatives.

Platform & Infrastructure

Perpetuals operates a regulated hybrid exchange built on proprietary infrastructure and structured around an EU Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF) framework. The platform is designed as institutional trading infrastructure, incorporating a high-speed matching engine, real-time settlement, built-in compliance and surveillance, and a hybrid architecture that delivers centralized exchange performance with blockchain-based transparency.

The platform is API-native by design, enabling direct integration with CFD brokers, institutional counterparties, and trading venues. Through turnkey APIs, partners can integrate order routing, execution, structured product issuance, market data, settlement, risk management, and compliance reporting, while the platform is designed to avoid custody of client assets and balance-sheet exposure. This infrastructure-first model allows Perpetuals to function as a regulated trading venue rather than a trading counterparty.

On top of this infrastructure, the platform is designed to support crypto spot trading, perpetual futures, futures, options, swaps, and tokenized structured products, including regulated knock-out instruments intended to operate within European regulatory constraints. Perpetuals also incorporates a prediction and insight engine designed to reward accurate market signals while generating datasets used to refine pricing, risk parameters, and trading intelligence across its structured products.

Market Opportunity

Perpetuals operates at the intersection of several large and converging markets, including crypto derivatives, regulated trading infrastructure, CFD brokerage technology, and tokenized financial products. The global crypto perpetual futures market processes approximately $2.18 trillion in monthly trading volume, while Europe’s CFD market generates roughly $17.34 trillion in monthly notional volume from approximately 4.9 million active retail accounts.

European regulatory frameworks restrict CFD brokers from legally offering high-leverage crypto products, creating a significant gap between trader demand and compliant market access. As a result, demand for crypto leverage has outpaced the availability of regulated infrastructure capable of serving brokers and institutional participants. This dynamic has left a large segment of retail and professional trading activity without compliant, onshore solutions.

Perpetuals addresses this gap by enabling regulated knock-out and structured products that allow leveraged crypto exposure without breaching leverage caps.
