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.

- 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.
- 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.
- Goldstorm Metals Completes 2026 Exploration Program and Provides Initial Results from Rock Sampling at the Crown Property, located in British Columbia's Golden Triangle
Goldstorm Metals (TSXV: GSTM) completed its 2026 exploration program on its 100%-owned Crown copper-gold-silver property in British Columbia's Golden Triangle, drilling seven holes totaling 4,155.5 meters. Drill assay results are pending, with the first set expected within one to two weeks and the remaining results at least three to four weeks away due to laboratory capacity. Of 526 rock samples collected, results for 310 have been received, with 25 returning above 0.5 g/t gold, including 6 above 5 g/t. Highlights include up to 155 g/t gold and 84.4 g/t silver in a High North shear zone, 40.4 g/t gold over 60 cm at Delta West, and up to 409 g/t silver and 8.02% copper at Mackie West. The company has dispatched crews to build a drill platform on the High North target for a proposed 2027 program.
- 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.

- Bitcoin Dips Below $80,000 Ahead of Fed Decision, Midterms
Bitcoin briefly fell below $80,000, touching about $79,330 before recovering to $80,264, down 2.7% on the week according to CoinGecko. The dip followed a sell-off in tech stocks and caution ahead of the Fed's rate decision, with U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs seeing $773 million in net outflows on Thursday and Friday. Daniela Hathorn of Capital.com linked the pressure to persistent inflation, high Treasury yields and expectations of further Fed tightening, while Tim Sun of HashKey said outflows and unwinding leveraged positions amplified the decline. Tim Sun sees $75,000 as a key support level if prices fall further, while Stephen Wundke of Algoz says Bitcoin needs to hold $82,000 to support the bull case. Analysts expect volatility to stay elevated ahead of Wednesday's Fed decision and the U.S. midterm elections on November 3.
- Bitcoin's Bear Market Is Over, Galaxy Research Says: 'Now Is an Attractive Time to Buy'
Galaxy's Alex Thorn argues Bitcoin bottomed in June and is now in an accumulation phase, calling it 'an attractive time to buy and hold bitcoin.' Bitcoin has closed five straight weeks above its 50-week average, and its market value never fell below its realized value, a first for any bear market. The latest 53% drawdown was the shallowest on record, versus 77% to 93% in past cycles, and spot Bitcoin ETFs have added 87,000 BTC since the June low. Thorn also points to $40.44 trillion in federal debt and a 10-year Treasury yield that hit 5.31%, its highest since 2007. His warning sign is a weekly close below the 50-week average, currently $76,540, that isn't regained within a month.
- Meta is raising even more cash to fund the AI build-out — as much as $95B
Meta plans to raise as much as $95 billion to keep funding its AI build-out, through several stock sales. The plan includes $35 billion of common and preferred stock and up to $60 billion through an at-the-market share sale program. Nvidia, AMD and Broadcom have together committed to buy $5 billion of the common shares. Shares, which had been trading higher, slipped in pre-market trading, and the hosts noted the spending is already baked into estimates. Investors are questioning when the heavy spending will pay off, with some reports saying Meta's models are not keeping up with rivals.
- Lode Gold Initiates Exploration to Evaluate Upside Potential at Historic High-Grade Mines Within Fremont Gold Mine
Lode Gold Resources (TSXV: LOD) announced on October 26, 2026 that it is starting exploration to assess additional gold potential at its 100%-owned Fremont Gold Mine in Mariposa County, California. The historic mine has seven deposits, four former mines, about 23 kilometres of underground workings and 43,000 metres of historical drilling, but its 2026 resource estimate covers only three of the deposits. The company is expanding its evaluation to all seven deposits and nine additional targets, starting with French Mine, a historical site about two kilometres by truck from Pine Tree-Josephine that reported gold grades of 10.7 g/t Au. Fieldwork and a review of historical records are underway to build a three-dimensional geological model, and CEO Wendy T. Chan said the company believes there could be significant upside at the previously producing mines. Any potential mining development remains subject to further geological, technical and economic assessments.
- Semperis Deepens Microsoft Security Collaboration, Integrating the Lightning Platform with Microsoft Sentinel and Security Copilot
Semperis announced on October 26, 2026 a deeper collaboration with Microsoft, as its Lightning Platform integrates with Microsoft Sentinel and Security Copilot. The integration uses Microsoft-native components such as Azure Functions, Log Analytics tables, KQL and MCP to bring identity context, including attack paths, Tier 0 exposure, posture indicators and hybrid identity telemetry, into Sentinel. Security teams can therefore query and act on identity risk without leaving the Microsoft environment. Semperis has also built custom Security Copilot agents that use KQL over Lightning tables to return risk and posture summaries and identify exposed paths, and these agents can be published on the Microsoft Security Store. The collaboration builds on Semperis' membership in the Microsoft Intelligent Security Association and its designation as a Microsoft Certified Security Software vendor. CEO Mickey Bresman said security teams need identity context within the tools they already use.
