Tectonic Metals reported results from 19 drill holes at Chicken Mountain, the most advanced of six intrusion targets at its 99,840-acre Flat Gold Project in southwest Alaska. Drilling at Alpha Bowl and Adit continues to show broad, near-surface gold with higher-grade intervals that could be relevant to future starter-pit evaluations, and gold-bearing hydrothermal brecciation was identified at Adit. Alpha Bowl spans about 820 metres along strike and up to 600 metres wide, and has been drill-tested to over 300 metres depth. The company has completed more than 29,000 metres of drilling in 2026, with 114 holes (about 22,000 metres) awaiting assays, a maiden mineral resource estimate targeted for Q1 2027 and a Preliminary Economic Assessment targeted for Q2 2027.

- Freegold drills 1.24 g/t Au over 213m including 21m of 5.77 g/t Au at Golden Summit
Freegold (TSX: FVL) reports eight more drill holes from its Golden Summit project in Alaska, with Dolphin showing long, continuous gold mineralization and higher-grade zones. Hole GS2656 intersected 21.0 m at 5.77 g/t Au from 467 m within a broader 213.0 m at 1.24 g/t Au, while GS2648 returned 2.47 g/t Au over 18 m starting at 63.1 m, supporting starter pit studies. Eight geotechnical holes are complete and the company is moving directly to a 2027 pre-feasibility study (PFS). The current resource stands at 17.2 Moz Indicated at 1.24 g/t Au and 11.9 Moz Inferred at 1.04 g/t Au as of July 2025, and CEO Kristina Walcott says the PFS centres on a smaller first-stage pit, with the near-surface oxide resource of nearly 1 million ounces being evaluated as early feed.

- Midland Identifies New Gold-Bearing Boulders During the First Phase of Its 2026 Exploration Program on the Caniapisc Au Project
Midland Exploration (TSX-V: MD) reported results from the first phase of its summer 2026 exploration program at the wholly owned Caniapisc Au project (315 exclusive exploration rights covering 159 square kilometres) in the Eeyou Istchee James Bay and Caniapiscau regions. The program identified several new gold-bearing boulders, with a maximum of 15.8 g/t Au; nine selected boulder grab samples exceeded 0.5 g/t Au, five of them above 1.0 g/t Au. The new boulders lie about 2.5 km northeast of the 2025 gold-bearing boulder area, while the Au-Zn-Ag-Mn signature continues in the south of the project. A total of 152 grab samples and 532 soil samples were collected, with B-horizon soil results and results from two later prospecting phases still pending.
- BULGOLD Defines the 2.2km-Long BL Vein Corridor at the Lutila Gold Project
BULGOLD (TSXV: ZLTO) reports that systematic mapping and prospecting have traced the subvertical BL Vein over a near-continuous 2.2 km north-south strike on the North East Block of its Lutila Gold Project in Slovakia. Historical 2004 drilling returned low-grade gold, including 26.2 m at 0.91 g/t Au and 24.3 m at 0.76 g/t Au, within a zone of brecciated rhyolite roughly 100 m wide. A combined set of 62 rock samples averaged 0.56 g/t Au, 4.9 g/t Ag, 364 ppm As and 512 ppm Sb along the trend. The company describes the target as underground, high-grade gold and silver quartz veins, and CEO Sean Hasson says the parallel structure significantly expands the project's prospective footprint.
- Medaro Mining Defines Multiple High-Grade Copper-Gold Target Areas at Bastnäs Project in Central Sweden Following 2026 Surface Sampling Program
Medaro Mining is providing more geological context for the copper-gold results from its 2026 surface sampling at the Bastnäs Project in central Sweden, without reporting new assay results. Of 218 samples collected, 56 assayed above 1.0% copper, including 10 above 10% Cu, and seven of those 10 came from waste dumps around the historic Persgruvan-Bössan underground mine (Area D). The program also returned 15 samples above 2.0 g/t gold, and the highest gold result, 16.5 g/t Au from sample BS159 at Stålklockan (Area C), also contained 3.82% Cu and 11.68% TREO. Because the samples are selective waste-dump material, the company says the results do not establish grade, width or continuity of in-situ mineralization. The company plans to focus its next copper-gold targeting on Persgruvan-Bössan and Stålklockan, and to integrate the surface results with a 2026 drone magnetic survey before finalizing drill collar locations.

- 2 High-Flying Dividend Stocks to Buy and Hold for a Decade
The article argues healthcare is rebounding in 2026, with Merck (MRK) shares up 39% and AbbVie (ABBV) up 24% year to date, versus about 12% for the S&P 500. Merck's second-quarter revenue rose 5% to $16.6 billion, beating estimates, with Keytruda sales of $8.4 billion, though Keytruda may lose patent exclusivity by 2028. AbbVie's second-quarter revenue grew 10.2% to nearly $17 billion and adjusted EPS rose 22.9% to $3.65, driven by Skyrizi and Rinvoq sales growing about 24%. AbbVie is on a streak of 54 consecutive annual dividend increases, including its time as part of Abbott Laboratories, qualifying it as a Dividend King. The author concludes both are attractive long-term holdings based on financial results, pipelines, and dividends.
- Nvidia (NVDA) Stock Price Lags Massive Earnings Growth—A Compelling Value Opportunity
Munro Partners' Munro Global Growth Fund posted a -12.6% net return in Q3 2026, trailing the MAET.ASX return of -13.8%, with long holdings the main detractors. The fund's letter named NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) its largest contributor, citing strong earnings growth and guidance for at least 70% revenue growth next fiscal year, versus consensus of 45%. Nvidia reported quarterly revenue of USD96.2bn in August, up 106% year on year, and management said growth would have been closer to 100% without supply constraints. As of October 12, 2026, NVDA closed at $214.13, down 4.23% over the past month and up 19.23% over the past year, with a $5.16 trillion market cap and a 52-week range of $164.27 to $243.37. The fund says demand for semiconductors and AI remains strong, creating a constructive setup as capex and political fears are now priced in.
- Better Artificial Intelligence Stock for 2026: C3.ai vs. SentinelOne
The article compares C3.ai, which sells enterprise AI applications, with SentinelOne, which provides AI-powered autonomous cybersecurity. In fiscal 2026 (ended April 30), C3.ai's revenue was nearly $250.3 million, down 35.7%, with a net loss of $470.4 million and negative free cash flow of $190.7 million. SentinelOne's fiscal 2026 (ended January 31) revenue reached $1.0 billion, up 21.9%, with a net loss of $450.7 million and free cash flow of about $75.9 million, though stock-based compensation equaled roughly 388.4% of operating cash flow. The article cites C3.ai's restructuring plan from February 2026 and long government sales cycles as risks, and SentinelOne's competition from larger vendors and reliance on Amazon hosting. It says SentinelOne trades at a lower valuation relative to sales, while C3.ai has no future earnings estimates.
- Salazar Resources to Begin Drilling the Yumi Gold-Silver Veins at Tarqui, with Porphyry Drilling Planned at Monja, Ecuador
Salazar Resources closed a $3,500,000 non-brokered private placement announced on October 8, 2026, and outlined its exploration plan. Phase 1 is about 1,500 metres of drilling in five holes at the Yumi gold-silver veins on its 100%-owned Tarqui project, with drilling expected to begin in late October 2026, and the veins have not previously been drilled. Selective rock-chip samples returned 105 g/t Au and 1,038 g/t Ag, and historical BHP holes intersected porphyry-style mineralization nearby, which the company interprets as lying on the periphery of a porphyry center not yet located. Phase 2 contemplates up to about 3,500 metres of drilling in four holes at the 100%-owned Monja copper-gold porphyry target from the first quarter of 2027, subject to surface access and permits. A soil survey of about 895 samples is also planned at Quimi, part of the Tarqui-Quimi project.
- Musk: AI’s Hard Part Is “Scaling Power”: 3 Stocks Uniquely Suited to Win This New Bottleneck Trade
Microsoft said it will scale its Maia chips to multi-gigawatt deployments starting next calendar year, and Elon Musk said scaling power is the hard part of AI. The article argues power is an input that chip and app companies cannot copy quickly, which favors Vistra (VST), Constellation Energy (CEG) and GE Vernova (GEV). Vistra has lost nearly a fifth of its value over the past year even though its adjusted EBITDA rose to $5.91 billion, while Constellation's normalized EPS is expected to reach $13.29 in fiscal 2027. GE Vernova's revenue is expected to reach $60.7 billion by fiscal 2028, and Jefferies has a $298 price target on Vistra. The article warns that all three stocks could move with the mood around AI, regardless of their results.
