- Could High Grade Apollo Drill Results Change The Bull Case For Collective Mining Stock?
Collective Mining reported new Apollo assays at Guayabales, including high-grade gold, silver, copper and tungsten in the Ramp Zone and Shallow Halo Zone, with several intervals outside the current Mineral Resource block model. The results suggest Apollo's mineralization is more complex and multi-metal than the existing resource shell implies. In its October update on the Shallow Halo Zone, 22 of 23 holes were above the 0.3 g/t AuEq cutoff used for the open pit shell. The company is still loss-making and depends on external funding, so its near-term focus remains resource definition and permitting.
- Pinnacle Silver and Gold secures drilling permit for El Potrero project in Mexico
Pinnacle Silver & Gold Corp has received an environmental permit from Mexico's environmental ministry SEMARNAT for surface drilling at its past-producing El Potrero gold-silver project in Durango. The permit covers 110 drill sites, is valid for two years, and supports an initial 48-hole program totaling 5,540 metres; because of the area's classification, a full environmental impact assessment (MIA) was required. Baseline data from the application will also support permits for the mine, processing plant, tailings storage, powerline and water supply, with the company targeting a formal production decision in early 2027. A feasibility study for a proposed 3.3-kilometre powerline extension is complete, and Comisión Federal de Electricidad has confirmed sufficient capacity, though environmental and land-use permits are still needed. For water, Mexico's national water authority has confirmed sufficient river water under rules that changed in December 2025, and field work is underway.
- Slam Exploration drills two holes at Moose Lake project
Slam Exploration has completed two NQ diamond drill holes, ML26-01 and ML26-02, totalling 224.5m at its Moose Lake Gold-Antimony-Silver Project in New Brunswick, Canada. The holes sit beneath earlier trenches containing antimony and cut faulted, brecciated and altered rock with visible stibnite, pyrite and arsenopyrite. The company collected 145 samples, with lab results pending. The work follows 2026 trenching along the Moose Lake Fault Zone, where Skull samples reached antimony grades up to 3.73%, with 1.96g/t gold and 73.5g/t silver. Slam plans further drilling to test continuity and metal zoning, including possible extensions to the southeast.
- How One Silver Miner Is Trying To Turn A Producing Mine Into A Bigger Business
GoGold Resources (TSX:GGD) aims to grow beyond its producing Parral Tailings mine in Chihuahua, Mexico, which extracts material from centuries-old waste left by historical silver and base metal mining. A 2020 study put remaining reserves at 15.4 million tonnes (8.7 million proven, 6.7 million probable). In 2026 the mine produced just under 1.9 million silver-equivalent ounces and around 11,647 ounces of gold, at an all-in sustaining cost of US$22 to US$28 per ounce. Management estimates about four years of reserve life remain, so the company needs new deposits; its Los Ricos South project in Jalisco, Mexico, began construction in June 2026, with a base net present value of US$355 million from a 2025 mineral resource estimate.
- Aztec Extends Oxide Gold-Silver Mineralization up to 190 m West at the North Extension at Tombstone, Arizona, Including 115.8 m of 0.67 g/t AuEq (0.52 g/t Au & 8.11 g/t Ag) in TR26-45
Aztec Minerals (TSXV: AZT) reports results from nine reverse circulation drill holes (TR26-45 to TR26-53) in the 2025-2026 program at its Tombstone Property in Arizona, all of which intersected oxide gold-silver mineralization. Six holes stepped out 90 m to 190 m west of the North Extension, extending the known oxide footprint about 190 m west, with mineralization open to the west, north and at depth. Highlights include TR26-45 with 115.8 m averaging 0.52 g/t Au and 8.11 g/t Ag (0.67 g/t AuEq) from 51.8 m, and TR26-49 with 30.5 m averaging 0.70 g/t Au and 24.62 g/t Ag (1.15 g/t AuEq). The maiden Mineral Resource Estimate, being prepared by APEX Geoscience, is expected in November 2026, while assays for 22 further holes are pending.
- Nine Mile Metals hits 7.13% copper equivalent over 11.65 metres at Wedge
Nine Mile Metals (CSE:NINE) reported a high-grade copper-rich lens grading 7.13% copper equivalent over 11.65 metres at its Wedge VMS project in New Brunswick, with gold and silver adding significant value. Drill hole WD-26-18 also intersected 9.93% copper equivalent over 6.70 metres and 10.46% over 4.8 metres, plus a 31.5-metre upper copper stringer zone. Every sample across the 6.7-metre interval graded above 8.4% copper equivalent, with 71 to 136 grams per tonne of silver and 1.16 to 2.4 grams per tonne of gold. The company estimates silver and gold together make up roughly one-third of the in-situ value, and the results extend known mineralization along the eastern edge of the drill pattern. The stringer zone, grading 0.40% copper equivalent, is treated as an exploration target, and borehole electromagnetic surveying and follow-up drilling are planned to test the lens's extent.

- Paying Tax on Revenue: What Do Household Businesses Expect?
A draft Law on Small and Medium-sized Enterprise Development would let individual businesses with annual revenue of up to 10 billion VND choose to pay tax based on a percentage of revenue or on taxable income. The option is slated to apply from the 2026 tax period, although the law is expected to take effect on July 1, 2027. Household businesses welcome the change as it could ease pressure from bookkeeping, invoices and accounting costs, but many remain unsure how to determine deductible expenses. Ms. Lê Yến of Hanoitax proposes extending the option to businesses with revenue above 1 billion VND and below 10 billion VND, while Mr. Lê Văn Tuấn of Keytas asks for the new threshold to apply from 2026. According to the Ministry of Finance, over 2.69 million household businesses nationwide have annual revenue of no more than 10 billion VND, accounting for 99.98% of all household businesses.

- Anthropic's Billions in Microsoft Commitments Add to Its Mounting Compute Bill
According to its S-1 filing, Anthropic will spend at least 44.9 billion USD with Microsoft between November 2026 and May 2033, regardless of usage, and the agreement is mostly non-cancellable. It has also committed 114.5 billion USD with Alphabet, 110 billion USD with Amazon through 2036, and about 3.1 billion USD per month with Space Exploration Technologies (SPCX) through 2029. Its future spending commitments exceed 500 billion USD, implying at least 400 billion USD in cloud infrastructure spending over the next several years. In the first half of the year, the company reported an 80.7 billion USD GAAP loss, mostly tied to changes in the valuation of its convertible debt, and spent nearly 9 billion USD on compute and infrastructure.
- China and Russia are redrawing Arctic trade. Can Europe fight back?
China and Russia have agreed to expand freight traffic along Arctic shipping corridors, boost port-to-port services and deepen cooperation on building polar vessels, shortly after the EU unveiled a new Arctic strategy to counter their growing influence. Analysts say Europe's ability to challenge the partnership is limited, since Moscow controls the Northern Sea Route and Beijing supplies cargo, vessels and industrial capacity. The route could cut Asia–Europe transit to 18 to 22 days, about 35% less than the 28 to 35 days via Suez. Arctic trade still accounts for roughly 0.3% of global shipping, with 37.02 million tonnes transiting the Northern Sea Route in 2025, and Roche estimates it could reach about 1% by 2030. Experts say the EU's leverage lies in expanding icebreaker capacity and maritime surveillance, but that this is not enough to reverse the structural advantages of Moscow and Beijing.
- What a $1,000 Investment in Micron Could Be Worth by the End of 2027
Micron's stock has more than tripled so far in 2026, placing it among the top five best performers in the S&P 500. The author argues the company is shifting toward a more stable chip-supplier model through long-term take-or-pay agreements, with 35% of revenue locked in through 2030. Micron has told investors that 2027 and 2028 will be tougher, but new capacity coming online from mid-2027 to late 2028 is still expected to fall short of rising demand. Wall Street analysts expect revenue to grow 107% in 2027, while the stock trades at 4.8 times fiscal 2027 earnings estimates. The author estimates that if the stock reaches 20 times earnings, a $1,000 investment could exceed $4,000 by the end of 2027, though this depends on whether the market awards a higher valuation.
- Why Does HCMC Need to Attract a New Generation of Capital?
At the CEO500 program of the Autumn Economic Forum (AEF 2026), HCMC targets attracting 19 billion USD in FDI this year, more than double the 8.37 billion USD recorded in 2025, and prioritizes high-quality inflows in finance, technology, digital transformation and the green economy. Mr. Nguyễn Hữu Huân of VIFC-HCMC said FDI is estimated to contribute 20.35% of GDP in 2025, but the value added it generates remains limited, with R&D accounting for just 1.9% of total investment in projects announced in 2020–2024. He argued the city therefore needs investment tied to R&D, engineering training and upgrading domestic suppliers. VIFC-HCMC proposes six priority sectors: AI and digital infrastructure, semiconductors and robotics, blockchain and digital finance, biotechnology and green technology, quantum technology and cybersecurity, and R&D, design and knowledge services. Deputy Chairman Nguyễn Công Vinh said FDI, technology and finance cannot reach their full value if operated separately and must be connected into one unified development axis.
