White Gold Corp. (TSXV: WGO) reported more results from its fully funded 2026 diamond drill program at the White Gold Project in Yukon, Canada. Hole QV26-025 at the VG deposit cut 2.73 g/t Au over 21.75m, including 4.18 g/t Au over 8.80m, extending mineralization to about 350m down-plunge and roughly 40m west of the prior hole QV26-024; the company says it is the strongest intercept ever drilled at VG below 125m vertical depth. At Ryan's Surprise, the first five holes intersected multiple stacked gold lenses, extending the system about 50m to both the east and west. The 2026 program comprises 53 holes totalling roughly 18,810 metres, the company's largest ever, with assays pending for 44 holes. The recently published preliminary economic assessment (PEA) reported an after-tax NPV of C$1.86 billion, a 41% IRR and a 1.5-year payback at a base-case gold price of US$3,600/oz.

- West Wits to drill 17 holes at Bird Reef Central in Johannesburg
West Wits Mining plans a 17-hole diamond drilling programme at its Bird Reef Central uranium-gold project in Johannesburg, starting by the end of November this year. The contracted drilling totals 5,750m across a 4km strike of the Bird Reef package, with holes spaced about 250m apart and reaching 100 to 400m deep. The programme aims to support an initial uranium mineral resource estimate and improve the existing gold resource, which stands at 1.38 million tonnes at 2.66 grams per tonne, containing 117,600 ounces, with about 65% classed as measured or indicated. The drilling will be funded from existing cash reserves, with results from each of three phases expected progressively through the first half of 2027.
- WESCAN GOLDFIELDS REPORTS ENCOURAGING DRILL CORE OBSERVATIONS IN FIRST HOLE OF 2026 DRILL CAMPAIGN AT MUNRO LAKE; ASSAYS PENDING
Wescan Goldfields reports that visible gold was identified in drill core from hole ML26-005, the first hole of its 2026 drill campaign at the Munro Lake Project in northern Saskatchewan. The gold occurs at 33.4 metres downhole in a narrow calc-silicate shear over a core length of about 10 centimetres, and the company notes that visible gold is not a reliable proxy for assay results. The hole was drilled to test the North Vein Target, where visible gold was reported in surface quartz vein material on October 19, 2026, and it intersected a wide high-strain zone interpreted as the main shear hosting the North and South Vein Targets. Assays are pending, and Wescan is sampling the full length of every hole in the campaign, which it expects to complete in early November.

IAMGOLD reports assay results from its ongoing 2025-2026 drilling programs at the Nelligan Mining Complex, which it owns 100%. The results confirm depth extension of mineralized zones at Nelligan, Monster Lake and Philibert and help define existing resources with more closely spaced drilling.
- NexGold Reports Progress on Development Activities at the Goldboro Gold Project in Nova Scotia
NexGold says it began early works construction at its Goldboro Gold Project in mid-September and has made significant progress on an updated Feasibility Study, which it expects to complete by the end of the fourth quarter of 2026. The study is expected to support the non-binding US$175 million letter of intent with Appian Capital Advisory Limited on potential project financing and to inform the Board's evaluation of a final investment decision. The company awarded the site preparation and early earthworks contract to Mi'kma'ki-Municipal Limited Partnership, with construction starting on September 17, and awarded seven site services contracts, several to Mi'kmaw-owned companies. It issued 16 long-lead equipment packages for bids, received proposals for 13, and expects the first awards before the end of October, while the site earthworks contract is scheduled to start in early 2027.
- Hemlo Mining And 2 Canadian Growth Stocks To Watch
The article screens three Canadian growth stocks using a filter for healthy balance sheets and strong earnings growth outlooks: Hemlo Mining, Alamos Gold and Energy Fuels. Hemlo Mining, a Toronto-based gold producer with a 100% owned Hemlo gold mine in Ontario, has a market cap of CA$1.48b, and analysts expect earnings to grow about 60.7% a year over the next 3 years, though the article says the stock trades well below estimated fair value depending on one unresolved pressure. Alamos Gold (market cap CA$17.58b) is expected to see output growth from its Canadian and Mexican mines, with Island Gold ore integrated into the Magino mill expected to bring processing cost synergies. Energy Fuels (market cap CA$2.64b) generates about $106 million from its uranium segment and is expanding rare earth processing at its White Mesa Mill.

- Why This Team of Ninjas Is Tripling Down on Mining Bitcoin
NIP Group, owner of esports team Ninjas in Pyjamas, acquired a third batch of Bitcoin miners in exchange for over 247 million Class A ordinary shares. The company says its capacity is now about 13.85 EH/s, enough to mine roughly 195 Bitcoin a month, or $2.8 million at current prices, up from a target of 160 Bitcoin a month set last year. CEO Hicham Chahine said the firm is buying mining capacity while the market is “cooling,” and that the facilities could shift to AI and high-performance computing if those workloads clearly beat mining returns. Since the announcement last week, NIPG shares have fallen 40.7% from $6.74 to $4, an all-time low, while Bitcoin dropped 2% to $79,820 over the same period.
- Salazar Resources Provides El Domo Construction Update, Initiates Drill Program at Tarqui and Engages IR firms
Salazar Resources says construction at the Curipamba-El Domo project, operated by Silvercorp, has been slowed by heavy rain. Salazar holds a 25% interest that is fully carried through commercial production. Silvercorp reported rainfall 489% above the six-year average in its fiscal second quarter, with construction suspended for 77 days, though about 1.0 million cubic metres of excavation and pre-stripping were completed, process plant foundations are done, and the first major long-lead equipment has arrived in Ecuador. Drilling has started at the Yumi gold-silver veins on the 100%-owned Tarqui project, with a first phase of approximately 1,500 metres in five holes, followed by up to approximately 3,500 metres in four holes at the Monja target from Q1 2027. Salazar has also engaged Minera IR for investor relations at C$6,000 per month and finalized a marketing agreement with Market Equities, both subject to TSXV acceptance.

- Japan's top yen stablecoin falls short of its target in a disappointing first year
JPYC reached only about a quarter of its circulation target in its first year, with 3.2 billion yen outstanding as of October 23 against 12.1 billion yen issued cumulatively. CEO Noritaka Okabe blamed a 1 million yen per-transaction cap for Type II funds transfer providers for slowing corporate adoption, even as the token has partnerships with AZ-COM Maruwa, SBJ Bank and LINE NEXT. Circulation briefly topped 4.2 billion yen in September after Upbit listed the token, before falling back to around 3 billion yen. Okabe is targeting tenfold growth, to tens of billions of yen, in the second year.
- Amazon's 'Safe' Retail Business Earns Less Than AWS Does. Is the Stock Still a Good Buy for Cautious Investors?
AWS is now Amazon's main profit driver: second-quarter AWS sales rose 37% to $42 billion, making up 21% of Amazon's sales but 60% of its operating income. Still, Amazon plans $220 billion in capital expenditures this year, and trailing 12-month free cash flow turned negative at a $7.6 billion outflow. CEO Andy Jassy said capacity still won't meet demand this year or next, and the third-quarter report is set for October 29. At about 29x forward earnings, down from over 34x a few months ago, the article argues Amazon may still suit long-term investors comfortable with volatility, while risk-averse investors could start with a smaller position and add over time.
