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.
- Goldstorm Metals Discovers Gold-Silver Mineralization over a 407.55-Meter (m) Length in Preliminary Drilling at the Crown Property on Trend with KSM and Treaty Creek Deposits, in British Columbia's Golden Triangle
Goldstorm Metals (TSXV: GSTM) reported assays from the first three drill holes of its recent diamond program on the 100%-owned Crown gold-silver-copper property in British Columbia's Golden Triangle, south of Newmont's Brucejack Mine and Seabridge Gold's KSM Property. Hole OR-26-03 averaged 0.39 g/t gold equivalent (AuEQ) over a 407.55 m mineralized intercept, including 15.0 m at 2.89 g/t AuEQ within 25.5 m at 1.97 g/t AuEQ and 300 m at 0.43 g/t AuEQ. The mineralization, with a strong silver component, sits in highly silicified felsic volcanic rocks, and the company's geologists believe a deeper intrusive source could host a large porphyry system. Results from the remaining four of the seven holes (4,155.5 m in total) and 24 sample shipments are still pending. The company plans an expanded drilling program at Crown next year.
- The Great Silver Debate - The Daily Reckoning
Sean Ring called silver a “busted flush” on the Paradigm app’s Daily Feed, noting it was trading under $60 with a possible new downside target of $47. The writer stayed long silver after Sean sold his silver miners around February 9, when silver was $83, and says Sean has been right so far while their time horizons differ. The writer plans to hold precious metals for at least 10 years, pointing to capital gains taxes of about 40% on short-term and 20% on long-term positions, and says some miners are up 3x with about 25% of profits taken. Both remain bullish long term: Sean’s silver target is around $56, while the writer cites Jim Rickards’ $200 target and calls silver a major part of his inflation insurance.
- Silvercorp Reports Operational Results and Financial Results Release Date for the Second Quarter, Fiscal 2027
Silvercorp reported production for the second quarter of fiscal 2027, ended September 30, 2026: silver output fell 41% year over year to 0.9 million ounces and gold fell 34% to 1,371 ounces, in line with the 40-50% impact it previously disclosed. The Ying Mining District processed 213,320 tonnes of ore and resumed operations, ending the quarter at a 90% operating rate. Revenue was $72.1 million, down 13%, partly offset by realized silver and gold prices that rose 82% to $61.83 per ounce and 32% to $3,955 per ounce. About $13.4 million was spent on safety upgrades at Ying, which were inspected and approved for operations to resume. Heavy rain at El Domo, with 620 millimetres (489% above the six-year average), halted construction for 77 days, and the company will release unaudited Q2 fiscal 2027 financial results on November 5, 2026, after market close.

- GoldInxs Commences Maiden Drill Program at the Fishpot Project, Testing Multiple Gold-Silver and Copper-Gold Targets
GoldInxs (TSXV: INXS) has started its maiden drill program at the Fishpot Project in Central British Columbia, with hole 26FP001 currently drilling into the Lightening Zone. Targets were built from a 53.4-line km 3D induced polarization survey combined with magnetic, geochemical, geological and Ripplinger Royalties Virtual DRILL EHR data, aiming at epithermal gold-silver and porphyry-style copper-gold mineralization. Phase 1 plans about 2,000 metres of NQ diamond drilling over 8-10 holes, testing the Lightening, Thriller, Believin', Luftballon, Southside and BullsEye zones. The property has only 2 historic holes totalling 378 metres, and earlier surface rock samples returned up to 5.65 g/t gold, 11.35 g/t silver and 0.42% copper, which the company says are not indicative of expected drill grades.

- SoFi Launches Tokenized Deposit That Earns 4.4% and Converts to a Stablecoin
SoFi has launched SoFi Earn (SOFIE), which it calls the first national bank-issued tokenized deposit for consumers, with each token representing $1 held at SoFi Bank. Holders earn a 4.40% APY, and the funds are FDIC-insured up to applicable limits, unlike most stablecoins, while tokens can be converted one-to-one into SoFiUSD to buy crypto or move dollars on blockchain rails. Citing Federal Reserve research, SoFi says roughly $64 billion, about 21% of the stablecoin market, sits idle in forgotten or inactive wallets, and the product aims to keep that money earning. It is SoFi's fifth crypto product in under a year, following its late-2025 return to crypto trading with more than 40 tokens and the launch of SoFiUSD.
- Why Nvidia's new DSX POD could really benefit corporate America
Nvidia unveiled the DSX POD, a pre-built, pre-tested rack of chips that plugs into existing power and can get a data center running in as little as 14 days. The host says the 'AI factory in a shipping container' description is misleading, since the unit includes no building or power, and notes neoclouds often face a four-to-six-month gap between receiving chips and generating revenue. He argues the product may appeal more to corporate America, such as financial firms bringing data processing in-house and renting space for 20 racks, rather than relying on endless cloud bills.
- The UK needs a workable route to regulated DeFi access
Katie Harries, Coinbase's head of policy for Europe, argues that the FCA's proposed crypto rules could amount to a de facto ban on regulated firms providing access to DeFi. The FCA expects regulated platforms to execute customer orders only on FCA-authorized venues, but DeFi protocols have no authorized person behind them. The rules apply from October 2027, and the FCA is not writing DeFi-specific rules, applying the same standards as fully centralized trading. The author argues a ban would push activity beyond regulators' visibility, and that clear consumer information, firm responsibilities and customer consent before leaving a regulated platform would address the risks better. The article points to the EU, where ESMA has proposed allowing regulated firms to provide DeFi access, and the US, where the SEC granted an Innovation Exemption for peer-to-peer trading of tokenized stocks.
- SEEQC Demonstrates Quantum Error Correction Performance Gains with Industry First Digital Interface Optimized Decoder Architecture using NVIDIA Ising and NVQLink
SEEQC reported results from a simulated quantum processor showing that combining its chip-based pre-decoder with NVIDIA Ising, linked through SEEQC Digital Link and NVIDIA NVQLink, improved two key decoding metrics, latency and logical error rate, by approximately 50% compared with running NVIDIA Ising as a standalone pre-decoder. The company says these metrics dictate how well fault-tolerant quantum systems scale, and that specialized processing close to the QPU reduces the data sent to GPU-based classical compute. CEO John Levy said tight integration of quantum processors with HPC infrastructure will be key, while NVIDIA's Sam Stanwyck said open models and interfaces let quantum builders accelerate hardware with AI and GPUs. The next step is chip-to-chip integration of a quantum processor within advanced HPC infrastructure for quantum AI applications.
- Rockwell Automation Expands FactoryTalk Conductor with NVIDIA Nemotron Support
Rockwell Automation (NYSE: ROK) said its FactoryTalk Conductor AI orchestration platform now supports NVIDIA Nemotron open models, giving manufacturers more deployment options. The approach lets companies keep engineering and production data in their own environments and retain control over infrastructure, governance and cost, while still using Rockwell-verified agents and skills. The platform lets users start engineering tasks through natural language and points toward agent-driven workflows in which engineers remain responsible for oversight and critical decisions.
- Why Tesla shareholders should be 'a little bit nervous' about a SpaceX merger
Tesla and SpaceX have formed special committees to discuss a possible merger, which would be the largest in history, with SpaceX valued at about $2.2 trillion and Tesla at about $1.7 trillion. One speaker warns Tesla shareholders could swap into SpaceX at about 0.7 SpaceX shares per Tesla share before any premium, with Elon Musk holding about 82% of the vote, raising the question of whether Tesla would be folded in at a discount. Dave Nadig calls the committees theatrics given Musk's 79% voting control, and says the real concern is consolidating control in one person, which makes him skeptical the deal benefits shareholders, who are exposed through index funds regardless.
