In this episode, we have a returning guest who appeared back in May 2021 (Episode 138). Tony Reda is the founder, President, and CEO of Tectonic Metals. A mineral exploration company, which is focused on the acquisition, exploration, discovery, and development of mineral resources from district-scale projects in politically stable jurisdictions that have the potential to host world-class orebodies in Canada and the US
Tony has been in mining for 20+ years and has been involved in several developments and acquisitions in the past. He gives us an update on Tectonic since we last spoke and talks about junior exploration and what Alaska has to offer as a mining jurisdiction.
KEY TAKEAWAYS

In the last 15 months, Tectonic Metals has acquired a new project which has 50 historical drills that showed extremely good grades.
The mineral belt they are working on has enormous potential. The details are shared in the episode.
They contact the native corporation in Alaska early and ask if they want to work collaboratively on mining projects.
Alaska is vastly untapped. There is a lot of potential for tier one projects.
The weather and lack of daylight in the winter are challenging. But this can, and is, being overcome.
Now, is a good time to consider investing in mining. Tony explains why he thinks that is the case.
We are likely to see more global companies setting up their own exploration and mining companies as Elon Musk has.

 
BEST MOMENTS
‘We work directly with native corporations in Alaska on native-owned land. We engage early as part of the acquisition process. ´
‘Alaska is an untapped jurisdiction for mining.’
‘The fundamentals behind the mineral space, in my opinion, are quite strong.’
