Welcome to our dedicated page for ESGold news (Ticker: ESAUF), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on ESGold stock.
ESGold Corp. reports developments in precious-metals exploration and pre-production mine development centered on the Montauban property in Quebec. The company describes Montauban as a fully permitted, past-producing gold-silver mine with historical tailings, surface and underground mineralization, and a strategy that combines tailings reprocessing with broader exploration across the land package.
Recurring updates for ESAUF include project construction, mill and gravity-circuit components, technical and economic study references, private-placement financing, and commentary tied to gold and silver market conditions. Coverage also includes company interviews and resource-sector media features that discuss ESGold's clean-mining approach, permitting position, and plans to move Montauban toward production.
ESGold Corp (ESAUF) has announced the delivery of Humphrey spiral concentrators to its Montauban site in Quebec, marking a significant milestone in its construction timeline. The gravity separation circuit is designed to process 1,000 tonnes per day of historic tailings, producing marketable mica concentrate while recovering gold and silver.
The Humphrey Spirals are industry-standard gravity concentrators that use centrifugal force and fluid dynamics to separate minerals without chemical reagents. The company is on track for first production by year-end 2025. Upcoming catalysts include an updated Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), circuit assembly and integration, and the release of ANT survey interpretation and 3D geological model in the coming weeks.
ESGold Corp. (ESAUF) has been invited to present at the Metals Investor Forum on May 9, 2025, at the Rosewood Hotel Georgia in Vancouver. The company was specifically selected by silver expert Peter Krauth, author of Silver Stock Investor, who recognizes ESGold as a promising junior gold-silver company approaching production.
The presentation, scheduled for 2:50 PM PST, will focus on ESGold's Montauban Project in Quebec, updating investors on ongoing construction progress and the company's anticipated first gold and silver production by year-end. Virtual attendance options are available for those unable to attend in person.
ESGold Corp. (ESAUF) has announced two key developments: First, the company issued 500,000 restricted share units (RSUs) to new board member Peter Espig, a seasoned mining executive with expertise in project finance and restructuring. The RSUs are part of the company's strategy to align management interests with shareholders and will vest according to the Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan.
Second, construction at the Montauban processing site in Quebec is progressing as planned, with Humphrey Spirals for the gravity recovery circuit expected to arrive next week. The company remains on track for production startup by year-end 2025, focusing on maintaining cost discipline while working toward near-term cash flow generation.
ESGold Corp (ESAUF) has appointed veteran mining executive Peter Espig to its Board of Directors, effective immediately. Espig brings extensive experience from his roles as Vice-President at Goldman Sachs Japan and Olympus Capital, where he participated in over $10 billion in structured deals. Since 2013, as President and CEO of Nicola Mining, he successfully transformed a distressed asset into a profitable mining enterprise, growing its market capitalization over ten-fold.
The appointment comes as ESGold advances its Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Quebec toward production in late 2025. The company is currently progressing with mill circuit construction, updating its Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA), conducting 3D geological modeling, and planning expanded exploration strategies.
ESGold Corp. (ESAUF) has announced the discovery of a significant geophysical anomaly in the southwestern portion of its Montauban Project, following a review of 2015 VTEM survey data and historic drill database. The company's expanded land position now encompasses 255 mining claims totaling 13,116 hectares, making it the largest claim package in the Montauban region.
The southwest target features a broad conductivity high coinciding with a strong magnetic anomaly, potentially indicating a buried sulfide-rich VMS environment. The company is developing its first-ever comprehensive 3D geological model, integrating VTEM data, historical drillholes, and upcoming ANT survey data that can image depths up to 800 meters.
While ESGold continues its path toward near-term production through tailings reprocessing, expected by year-end 2025, the company's upcoming initiatives include: releasing the 3D Geological Model in May, interpreting ANT Survey results, implementing exploration strategy, updating PEA with current metals pricing, and continuing construction activities.
ESGold Corp (OTCQB: ESAUF) is actively engaging with Quebec and Canadian governments for funding support as it advances the Montauban Project toward gold and silver production. The company is constructing a 500-tonne pilot plant and a 1,000-tonne commercial facility in Montauban, Quebec.
The project aims to create 20-30 direct jobs and additional employment through exploration activities. Key initiatives include:
- Construction of fully permitted facilities with production expected before year end
- Focus on sustainable practices and clean technology integration
- Investment in high-performance equipment and proprietary technology
- Prioritization of local contractors and regional economic development
The company's exploration activities will generate additional contract positions for drill operators, geologists, and lab technicians. ESGold's approach aligns with Quebec's clean industry initiatives and Canada's goals for innovation-driven, sustainable economic growth.
ESGold Corp (OTCQB: ESAUF) has commenced construction at its Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Quebec, marking a important step toward production. Following a successful C$3.45 million financing round in April 2025, the company has begun expanding its milling and processing facilities.
The construction phase includes several key initiatives: mobilization of cranes and heavy equipment, installation of mill components, deployment of a 1000-amp generator, STARLINK-enabled connectivity, security infrastructure, and an 1,800 sq. ft. mill building extension. The initial construction stage is expected to take approximately one month.
The company targets early Q4 for production start and plans to complete on-site mineralogy tests, publish an Updated Preliminary Economic Assessment, and release Ambient Noise Tomography Survey results. The Montauban site, with over 80 years of mining history, is being revitalized with clean processing technologies and advanced exploration tools.
