Will the tariff hammer be followed by a currency war? Speculation about the devaluation of the US dollar is already rife on the capital markets. One sign of this is that central banks are continuing to buy gold on a massive scale. After the price per troy ounce easily surpassed USD 3,300 last week, analysts are now targeting the USD 4,000 mark. The current environment makes it clear that gold belongs in every diversified portfolio. Tocvan Ventures is an exciting opportunity to jump on the gold bandwagon. The project in Mexico is at an advanced stage and is set to be developed into a world-class operation. After more than four years of exploration work, the project is expected to be given the green light in 2025. The share price has finally taken off, still has a lot of upside potential, should receive mining approval this year and offers takeover speculation.

    A world-class project and takeover candidate

    For a long time, the positive news at Tocvan Ventures was ignored. However, since mid-March, the stock – which is also actively traded on Tradegate in Germany – has been on an upward trend and still has plenty of room to grow. Production at Tocvan's Gran Pilar gold-silver project is scheduled to begin in the pilot mine before the end of this year. The project is located in Sonora, Mexico, a state in the northwest that is the country's top mining region. The infrastructure and cooperation with the authorities are correspondingly good. There are already mines in production in the neighborhood, and Tocvan aims to develop a multi-million-ounce project. This would make it a takeover candidate for neighbors like Fresnillo and Pan American.

    Low valuation

    Tocvan's valuation is still below CAD 50 million. This seems too cheap considering the Company aims to achieve a decisive transformation in 2025: the leap from explorer to commercial producer. A mineral resource estimate is expected in the fall, and the mining permit is also expected to be granted in 2025. A peer group comparison with Minera Alamos also highlights the upside potential for Tocvan shares. Minera Alamos is now valued at almost CAD 200 million. The Minera project has 0.65 g/t Au. At Tocvan, results have generally started at over 1 g/t Au and risen to 2.5 g/t Au. The high mineralization at Gran Pilar has just been confirmed again, highlighting the potential.

    Latest drill results impressive again

    Last week, further positive drill results for Gran Pilar were announced. These results were obtained from ten core drill holes totaling over 1 km in length, which were completed in the Main Zone earlier this year. The highlight was a 2.6-meter section with 7.2 g/t Au and 80 g/t Ag within a mineralized zone. In addition, the southernmost significant mineralization section was intersected, confirming that the trend continues to the south. Furthermore, a core duplicate sample from the high-grade zone returned 18 g/t Au over 1.1 meters. This significantly exceeded the original sample of 4.4 g/t Au. Tocvan attributes the deviation to coarse-grained gold and is currently reviewing an additional investigation to determine the impact of the high-grade deviations on a resource estimate. Finally, it was announced that RC drilling is ongoing, and three drill holes totaling 452.9 meters have already been completed.

    Based on the latest drill results, Tocvan CEO Brodie Sutherland believes that the high-grade corridor may be extended: "This opens up the opportunity to extend the mineralization further to the south, increasing the potential for finding near-surface resources. We look forward to keeping our shareholders updated as further results become available. Short-term catalysts include the drill results and updates on the permitting initiatives for pilot production and aggressive exploration across the expansion area." The pilot mine is expected to process 50,000 tons and pave the way for a large-scale mine.

    Conclusion: Good reasons for rising share prices

    A whole range of factors point to rising prices for Tocvan shares: Global uncertainty, rising gold prices, convincing drill results, the start of pilot mining, and takeover speculation.

    Africa's hardest currency: New perspectives from Barrick Mining, Compass Gold, and Desert Gold

    A noticeable shift is currently taking place in African mining, as mineral resources are increasingly being viewed as the continent's hardest currency. This trend was highlighted at the African Mining Indaba in Cape Town in February, where the concept of a "Bank of African Settlements" was discussed. The stated goal of this initiative is to establish mineral resources as bankable assets to reduce dependence on volatile fiat currencies such as the US dollar. For many African nations, this is a direct response to the harsh reality that some local currencies have depreciated by as much as 900% against the US dollar over the past two decades. At the same time, market data supports this trend, with foreign central banks' gold reserves exceeding their holdings of US government bonds for the first time since 1996. Combined with growing efforts toward political self-determination and the expansion of reliable infrastructure, this shift is opening up attractive opportunities for investors. In this environment, industry heavyweight Barrick Mining is consolidating its industrial base in Mali, while emerging explorers such as Compass Gold and Desert Gold are actively searching for new deposits.

    The gold market is experiencing a historic shift in 2026. While geopolitical crises and a weakening dollar are driving the price above USD 5,300, central banks are massively increasing their reserves. This combination of global uncertainty and strategic demand is giving the precious metal new momentum. At the same time, central banks are signaling further interest rate cuts, which is giving gold an additional boost as an asset class. In this environment, producers are coming into focus, led by industry leader Newmont, promising explorer Lahontan Gold, which is on its way to production, and stable producer Agnico Eagle.

    Are Adidas shares a buy now? The CEO has certainly taken advantage of the recent price decline, purchasing shares after the company extended his contract ahead of schedule. The company is noticeably cautious in its outlook for 2026, despite the upcoming Football World Cup. As a result, analysts are lowering their estimates and price targets. Meanwhile, an interesting buying opportunity currently appears to be emerging at Silver North Resources. The price of silver has stabilized in the range of USD 80 to USD 90 per ounce, more than 100% higher than a year ago, providing an excellent basis for silver producers and explorers. Following strong drilling results last year, the company has set ambitious targets for 2026. RENK also plans to continue growing in the current year. The stock reacted to the figures for 2025 and the outlook with a sharp jump in price. So far, however, the gain has only managed to offset the losses recorded earlier in the week.
