Description:
Australian analyst firm Martin Place Securities has released an investment review of Siren Gold (ASX:SNG), an ASX-listed gold exploration company with a portfolio of assets in the historic Reefton goldfields in West Coast New Zealand, citing the potential for the company to achieve between AU$1.00 and AU$1.50 share price in two years.
“SNG has continued exploration on its tenement holdings in favourable geological terrains at Reefton and also at the 0.588 Moz Sams Creek porphyry project about 120 km
north of Reefton in 81 percent/19 percent joint venture with OceanaGold (TSX:OGC),” the report said.
The report noted the company’s high-grade, deep gold mine potential with antimony as a co-products at its Reefton goldfield property.
“SNG sees potential for several +million oz gold deposits to be discovered at Reefton along strike and especially down dip at the old mines, and recent work at Lyell and Auld Creek in the north and at Langdons is providing strong evidence for the potential for a large scale aggregated antimony resource,” the report said.
Report highlights:
- SNG has been showing an “active and dynamic” track record since its listing in October 2020.
- SNG has attractive tenements located in the Reefton line of lode within the West Coast Goldfields, with similar geology as the prolific Victorian Goldfields.
- Potential for getting to more than 2 Moz resource, and a two-year target of AU$1.50 is achievable
- Confirmed resources may lead to a quicker pathway to production.

Fortune Bay: Maximizing Shareholder Value in Gold and Uranium
Fortune Bay (TSV:FOR) is a gold developer-explorer focused on unlocking value at the steepest part of the Lassonde Curve. The company combines a de-risked Canadian gold project with transformational discovery potential in Mexico, while also exploring partner-funded uranium assets.
Backed by strong community partnerships and a disciplined approach, Fortune Bay’s share structure positions it for multiple near-term catalysts as capital returns to quality juniors.
The Goldfields project in Saskatchewan, Canada, is situated in a top-tier mining jurisdiction with road access, proximity to hydropower, historical infrastructure, and advanced permitting groundwork. The 2022 PEA outlined average production of 101 koz/yr over 8.3 years, with C$234 million initial capex and life-of-mine AISC of US$889/oz (base case US$1,650/oz), showing strong sensitivity to higher gold prices. In 2025, the company engaged Ausenco for an updated PEA and commenced permitting to support future production — both initiatives are now underway.
Company Highlights
- Cycle-smart model: Advancing projects through discovery, resource expansion and early-stage development, then monetizing before the capital-intensive build phase.
- Flagship development-ready gold asset in Saskatchewan, Canada: Goldfields project with open-pit 0.98 million ounce (Moz) indicated @ 1.31 grams per ton (g/t) gold and 0.21 Moz inferred @ 0.92 g/t gold; 2022 PEA shows robust economics; a 2025 PEA update is underway alongside permitting and existing infrastructure reducing risk and timelines.
- Poma Rosa Project (Mexico): Historical gold resource at Campamento (1.04 Moz measured and indicated; 0.70 Moz inferred) sitting atop an untested porphyry system – offering both near-term ounces and discovery blue-sky; community re-engagement progressing to enable exploration restart. Historical estimate, not treated as current under NI 43-101.
- Uranium optionality, non-dilutive: Advancing Murmac & Strike (optioned to Aero Energy) and The Woods (optioned to Neu Horizon) under partner capital while Fortune Bay remains operator, leveraging uranium expertise, offsetting overhead and preserving discovery upside and exposure to uranium market tailwinds.
- Strong leadership: Led by discovery-driven geologists and capital-markets veterans with a track record of building and monetizing companies.

Investor Insight
A cycle-aware gold developer-explorer focused on value creation at the steepest part of the Lassonde Curve – pairing a de-risked Canadian gold project with transformational discovery potential in Mexico, and overlaying partner-funded uranium exposure .
Advancing community partnerships in both jurisdictions underpin the strategy, ensuring responsible advancement and alignment with stakeholders.
With a tight share structure and disciplined approach, Fortune Bay is positioned for multiple near-term catalysts as capital flows back into quality juniors.
Overview
Fortune Bay (TSXV:FOR,FWB:5QN,OTCQB:FTBYF) is a technically driven gold exploration and development company whose strategy is to create value at the steepest part of the Lassonde Curve. The company advances assets through discovery, resource expansion and early-stage development, then seeks monetization routes (sales, JV buyouts, M&A, royalties or equity) before the project enters capital-intensive build phases. This cycle-aware approach aims to maximize per-share value while minimizing dilution.
The current portfolio spans two 100-percent-owned gold projects – Goldfields in Saskatchewan, Canada, and Poma Rosa (formerly Ixhuatán) in Chiapas, Mexico. These projects are complemented by three uranium assets in Saskatchewan – Murmac, Strike and The Woods – that are being advanced under partner funding.
Overall, Fortune Bay’s business strategy blends a de-risked development asset (Goldfields) with transformational discovery potential (Poma Rosa), and non-dilutive uranium exposure, positioning the company for multiple catalysts and potential re-rating as market capital flows into quality juniors.

Key Projects
Goldfields Project
Located in Saskatchewan, Canada, Goldfields sits in one of the world’s top mining jurisdictions with road access, nearby hydropower, historical mining infrastructure and well-advanced permitting groundwork. The project’s 2022 preliminary economic assessment (PEA) outlined 101 koz/yr average production over 8.3 years with C$234 million initial capex and life-of-mine all-in sustaining cost of US$889/oz (base case US$1,650/oz), with strong sensitivity to higher gold prices. In 2025, the company engaged Ausenco to deliver an updated PEA and commenced permitting activities to support future production – both initiatives are currently underway.
Open-pit constrained resources at the Box and Athona deposits total 0.98 Moz indicated and 0.21 Moz inferred, reconciling closely with historical production. Beyond the current mine plan, Fortune Bay sees resource growth potential at depth, at Athona and across several shallow discovery targets (Frontier Mine Granite, Golden Pond, Triangle and Goldfields Syncline).
Poma Rosa Gold-Copper Project
In Chiapas, Mexico, Poma Rosa hosts the Campamento epithermal gold-silver system with a historical resource of 1.04 Moz gold, measured and indicated, and 0.70 Moz gold inferred, and sits above a large, under-evaluated copper-gold porphyry system evidenced by broad mineralized intercepts, including 601.4 m @ 0.3 percent copper, 0.7 g/t gold and 2.7 g/t silver at Cerro La Mina, and multiple target areas across the tenement.
Fortune Bay is re-establishing community relationships to enable exploration agreements and a restart of field programs, with a pathway that includes updating the historical resource to current NI 43-101 standards and testing porphyry/skarn targets. The Campamento estimate is historical and not treated as current.
Uranium Portfolio
The Murmac and Strike projects are optioned to Aero Energy, while The Woods is optioned to Neu Horizon. Together, they cover more than 60,000 hectares on and near the Athabasca Basin’s northern rim, targeting shallow, basement-hosted high-grade deposits. Drilling at Murmac/Strike has confirmed Athabasca-style mineralization with multiple shallow uranium intercepts. Meanwhile, The Woods offers district-scale potential along the Grease River Shear Zone with extreme surface/lake-sediment uranium anomalism. Fortune Bay remains the operator for these assets, while partners fund exploration, generating non-dilutive income and preserving discovery leverage.
