    A recent article by RCKS Talk highlighted GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV:GQC) and eCobalt Solutions (TSX:ECS).

    A recent article by RCKS Talk highlighted GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV:GQC) and eCobalt Solutions’ (TSX:ECS).
    As quoted in the article:

    GoldQuest Mining Corp. (TSXV:GQC) announced a private placement with Agnico Eagle Mines Ltd. (TSX:AEM, NYSE:AEM) for C$22.86 million to fund working capital and the exploration and development of its properties in the Dominican Republic. In our view, this investment by Agnico provides technical validation for the Romero project, and highlights the exploration potential of its district scale land package. The financing consists of 38.1 million common shares priced at C$0.60/sh which represents a 27.7% premium to the prior day’s close. As a result of the transaction, Agnico would own ~15% of GoldQuest on a non-diluted basis. In conjunction with the financing, Agnico has been granted the right to nominate one director and maintain its interest in future financings. GoldQuest currently trades at 0.54x NAV and $42/oz versus peers at 0.51x NAV and $35/oz. We believe that a further premium may be warranted because of Romero’s stage of development and the exploration potential of the company’s district scale land package. We expect the combination of the ongoing de-risking at Romero (feasibility study in early 2017 & operating permits in late 2017) along with ongoing regional exploration are likely to provide positive momentum for the share price.
    eCobalt Solutions’ (TSX:ECS) provided a corporate and operations update on its Idaho Cobalt Project (ICP) near Salmon, Idaho. The update suggests progress has been made in advancing the project and that the feasibility study is on track to be completed in Q2. A third-party market study established that cobalt sulfate samples produced from ICP meets the standards for the most recent NMC and NCA battery technologies. We view this positively as it should allow the company to complete an off-take agreement. In addition, the company announced it has completed the ~800m metallurgical drill program which commenced in Q3 2016. Cobalt sulfate crystal samples produced from the drill core are expected to be made available to potential off-take clients for due diligence purposes. Earlier in Q1, eCobalt closed a C$17.25 million financing to fund the project to a construction decision. With the project progressing, we believe eCobalt is likely in a good position to take advantage of the increasing cobalt prices. Cobalt prices have increased by ~55% since the beginning of 2017.
