15 Junior Miners on Haywood’s Watch List

Resource Investing News

Despite a tumultuous end to 2014 and a difficult sector for resource juniors, Haywood Securities still has a number of junior miners on its watch list. Here’s a look at 15 it likes from across various sectors.

On Wednesday, Haywood Securities put out its first-quarter Junior Exploration Report, which includes a list of companies it’s keeping an eye on. 

The firm notes that 2014 was “a tumultuous year for commodities and mining equities,” which made things especially difficult for juniors. Referencing SNL Metals and Mining’s Pipeline Activity Index, Haywood states that there was a reduction in exploration activity due to juniors’ difficulties raising funds during the year.

Haywood states that many companies are now hunkering down on the sidelines and waiting for things to get better rather than attempting to raise exploration funds at dilutive prices.

Still, it’s identified a number of companies with good projects and management teams that are moving forward with financing, exploration and development work to “generate nearer term positive news flow.” Here’s a look at 15 companies that the firm will be watching over the first quarter of 2015:
