A RARE COMEBACK STORY
In a market where most halted small-cap companies never return, Fobi AI has defied expectations. Under a cease-trade order since November 2024, the company didn’t fade into obscurity—the company reported nearly $3 million in 2024 revenue, including approximately $2.2 million from the sale of its German subsidiary.
As CEO Rob Anson put it:
“Most companies would have folded under these circumstances. We fought through every obstacle legal, financial, and market-driven and we’re coming back stronger than ever.”
FROM SURVIVAL TO STRATEGY
Fobi turned a year of constraint into a year of transformation:
Consolidated operations with an annual run rate under $1.3M, enabling scale with fewer than 10 employees
Redirected capital from the Passcreator sale into next-gen AI-powered wallet platforms
Positioned itself as a lean, execution-first company with live products in the market
ENTERING A MULTI-BILLION-DOLLAR ARENA
The company isn’t merely returning, it’s relaunching with sharper focus. Fobi’s ambition is to become the “Deloitte of the AI + Web3 era,” offering enterprises not just strategy, but real-time implementation through integrated wallets, identity verification, and automation platforms. With applications across stadiums, airports, healthcare, and finance, the addressable market spans multiple sectors.
WHY THIS MATTERS FOR INVESTORS
Clear Market Fit: Enterprise clients need AI integration that traditional consultants can’t deliver
Execution Edge: Products are live, scalable, and already generating client interest
LOOKING AHEAD
Fobi’s comeback is more than a return to trading—it is a reset. With tangible revenues, streamlined operations, and a future-focused product suite, the company is positioning itself as one of the rare small-cap survivors with the potential to thrive in the AI and Web3 economy. For investors, this represents a strategic reset rather than just a recovery, as the company builds toward its next growth phase.

“This is the easiest mining project I’ve seen in 40 years — on or near surface, high recovery rates, and significant upside the majors left untapped.” CEO Stephen Barley
A LEGACY OF MAJOR INVESTMENT
With gold at record highs and silver at a 14-year peak, Magma Silver Corp. (CSE: MGMA / OTCQB: MAGMF) is advancing a flagship Peruvian project that has already seen $14.5 million in exploration by majors including Newmont, AngloGold, and Bear Creek. Today, Magma is applying modern geological modeling to unlock the full value of what those majors left behind.
WHY THIS PROJECT MATTERS
DISTRICT-SCALE SYSTEM: The property spans 40 km², including an 8 km by 2 km anomalous zone with multiple gold and silver targets.
CLEAN SILVER ADVANTAGE: Unlike many deposits labeled “silver equivalent,” Magma’s system has pure silver with no contaminant metals — a rare and attractive characteristic.
JUMPSTART ON RESOURCE: With access to Newmont’s 65 drill holes and data, Magma can fast-track toward a compliant resource.
PERU SILVER RECORD: Peru is one of the world’s top jurisdictions for silver and gold exploration as the 3rd largest silver producer globally – and a top 15 mining jurisdiction worldwide.
DRILLING AND RESULTS WILL BEGIN TO FLOW IN 2025
Magma’s Phase 1 sampling confirmed high-grade results, including 14 g/t gold and 311 g/t silver in surface samples. Drilling begins mid-November with six holes planned, and results expected before year-end — setting the stage for steady news flow through 2026.
RWA TOKENIZATION IS ON THE TABLE
The company is exploring real asset tokenization to monetize gold in the ground while minimizing dilution — an innovative financing path rarely seen at this stage. Longer term, Magma sees precedent in the Alamo Dorado Project, a discovery that sold for over $100 million when silver was just $5/oz.
THE INVESTMENT CASE
At a market cap of just ~$6M CAD, Magma Silver offers investors:
A project already advanced by global majors
Proven high-grade sampling results consistent with majors
District-scale exploration potential
And a management team with a track record of successful discoveries and financings.
With drilling underway and catalysts imminent, Magma Silver is positioning itself as one of Peru’s next major gold-silver stories at a time when the sector is gaining global momentum.

Kidoz Inc. (TSXV: KDOZ), a global leader in kid-safe mobile advertising, continues to separate itself from the pack, posting record Q1 2025 results and reinforcing its position as the trusted solution for brands navigating increasingly strict digital privacy laws. With nearly 5,000 apps powered by its platform and a reach of over 500 million children globally across more than 60 countries, Kidoz is not just participating in the kid-focused ad market—it’s shaping it.
In an exclusive interview, Kidoz CEO Jason Williams outlined the company’s remarkable growth trajectory, its expanding reputation among global brands, and why the company is perfectly positioned for continued success in a rapidly changing digital environment.
Breaking Records: Q1 2025 Marks a Milestone
Despite Q1 typically being Kidoz’s slowest season, the company delivered a record-breaking $3.9 million CAD (approximately $2.7 million USD) in revenue, representing 54% year-over-year growth. This performance is even more impressive considering the cyclical nature of advertising to kids, where spending typically accelerates later in the year.
Williams attributes this success to surging demand from major global brands, who are increasingly prioritizing digital safety, privacy, and performance. “We’ve built a product that ticks every box: value, scale, trust, and zero compliance risk,” said Williams. “There’s no other platform that can offer what we can at this level of scale in the in-app gaming space.”
The Competitive Advantage: Direct Brand Relationships
One of Kidoz’s key strategic shifts over the past two years has been the move to direct in-house ad sales, especially in the U.S. market. By reducing reliance on agencies and building direct relationships with brands like LEGO, Mattel, and McDonald’s, Kidoz has gained greater control over campaign execution, pricing, and customer feedback.
Williams emphasized that these direct conversations are not only happening more frequently but have also grown more meaningful:
Brands are proactively seeking Kidoz for trusted, fully compliant solutions.
Compliance is no longer a “nice-to-have” but an essential requirement in the face of evolving privacy laws.
The company’s reputation is solidifying, with brand partners now eager to explore what Kidoz can deliver.
Privacy and Compliance: Kidoz’s Core Strength
As new privacy regulations like COPPA 2.0 and age-gating requirements for mixed-audience apps begin to reshape the landscape, Kidoz’s long-standing commitment to compliance is proving invaluable. The company’s technology was built from the ground up to be fully privacy-safe, requiring no tracking or data collection—a critical differentiator as regulators worldwide increase scrutiny and fines for violations.
Key Compliance Advantages:
Fully COPPA and GDPR-K compliant.
Strategic partnership with Safe Harbor certification partner Privo.
Zero data tracking—completely privacy-by-design.
Reduced brand risk, enabling marketing managers to “sleep easy” knowing their campaigns are compliant.
Williams summed it up: “There’s no sales pitch here. It’s just a fact. The macro environment says you can’t afford to break the rules. We’re the safest path forward—and we don’t sacrifice performance.”
Profitability with Purpose
Unlike many fast-growing tech companies that prioritize top-line growth at the expense of profitability, Kidoz is delivering both.
Q1 2025 marked the company’s second consecutive profitable quarter.
Net income, gross income, EBITDA, and free cash flow all grew alongside revenue.
The company continues to invest in innovation while driving operational efficiency.
Kidoz’s ability to grow profitably without sacrificing quality, scale, or compliance is rare in the digital advertising sector and speaks to its disciplined management approach.
Riding Tailwinds, Not Facing Headwinds: The AI Advantage
While artificial intelligence (AI) is disrupting traditional digital advertising—particularly click-based web advertising—Kidoz’s business model is largely insulated. Unlike Google’s ad platform, which faces AI-driven search disruption, Kidoz’s core is in entertainment and in-app gaming.
“Gaming is one of the world’s most popular entertainment forms,” Williams explained. “AI isn’t replacing entertainment. In fact, AI is helping us improve our monetization tools, targeting, and operations. AI is wind behind us, not in front of us.”
The company is also benefiting from a broader media shift toward gaming as an advertising channel, which Williams noted is now capturing more attention—and more ad budgets—from major brands and media planners.
Looking Ahead: Sustaining Growth Through Innovation
While Q2 and Q3 are traditionally softer quarters due to the seasonal nature of kid-focused advertising, Kidoz is proactively working to mitigate these lulls:
New products are in development to create more year-round revenue opportunities.
Direct sales strategies continue to expand.
The company is investing heavily in building the most competitive, privacy-first tools in the market.
Williams made it clear: Kidoz is not standing still. The company is committed to continuous improvement, aiming to flatten seasonal dips and push toward consistent, year-round growth.
Conclusion: The Trusted Leader in Kid-Safe Mobile Advertising
Kidoz has firmly established itself as the go-to solution for privacy-first, kid-safe mobile advertising.
Trusted by the biggest brands.
Compliant with the world’s strictest privacy laws.
Profitable, scalable, and growing.
In a market where brand safety, privacy, and trust are more valuable than ever, Kidoz stands alone in its ability to deliver results at scale—without sacrificing compliance or performance.
For investors looking for a small-cap tech company with a proven growth story, real profitability, and a strong strategic moat, Kidoz may be one of the most compelling opportunities in the market today.
“This isn’t just a growth story,” Williams said. “It’s a growth story with purpose, with discipline, and with the trust of the world’s most respected brands.”

A Bold Signal of Confidence from the Helm
In an era when executive skin in the game is more often promised than proven, PyroGenesis Canada Inc. (TSX: PYR | OTCQX: PYRGF | FRA: 8PY1) stands out. CEO P. Peter Pascali has now personally invested over $10 million into the Montreal-based cleantech company, underlining a rare and compelling alignment between management conviction and shareholder interest.
The move comes amid a string of key developments for the company, including a growing $55 million contract backlog, expanding adoption of its proprietary plasma torch technologies, and recent success in producing fumed silica — a widely used industrial material — in a cleaner, more efficient way. In fiscal year 2024, the company achieved $15.7 million in revenue, marking a 27% increase over the previous year and signaling a strong return to growth across its core business segments.
PyroGenesis, a global leader in all-electric plasma solutions, operates at the intersection of industrial decarbonization, waste remediation, and advanced materials manufacturing. Its systems are being commercialized across sectors ranging from aluminum and defense to additive manufacturing and hazardous waste destruction — including aboard U.S. Navy aircraft carriers.
Strategic Milestones Backed by Founder Commitment
In a recent interview, Pascali addressed his continued investment directly, revealing that beyond recent financings, his total personal contribution now exceeds $10 million.
“I’ve increased my personal holdings over the years and reinvested heavily in the business because I believe in our long-term trajectory. This isn’t just about optics — I’m putting real capital to work,” said Pascali.
While most CEOs receive compensation in options or warrants, Pascali’s recent $5.75 million financing — in the form of a loan to the company — included no common shares. Instead, he accepted warrants as part of the package, providing upside only if the share price increases.
“I benefit only if the company succeeds. That’s the message I want to send — this isn’t about short-term gains; it’s about building something enduring,” he added.
Fumed Silica: A Breakthrough in Clean Production
One of the company’s most exciting breakthroughs is in fumed silica, a versatile material found in thousands of products — from toothpaste and cosmetics to fiber optics and lithium batteries.
In partnership with HPQ Silicon’s subsidiary, Polvere, PyroGenesis has developed a pilot-scale reactor that converts quartz into fumed silica in a single, cleaner, and more energy-efficient step — potentially eliminating hazardous chemicals and reducing energy use versus traditional methods.
Recent independent lab results confirmed that the powder produced in PyroGenesis’ system is indeed high-quality fumed silica, aligning closely with commercial standards used by industry leader Evonik.
Why This Matters:
Traditional fumed silica production is energy-intensive and environmentally harmful. PyroGenesis’ system reduces:
Capital and operating costs
CO₂ emissions
Use of hazardous feedstocks
This could disrupt a high-volume, $1+ billion global industry. Next steps include refining purity and scaling output to 50 tonnes per year — a key commercial milestone. Notably, Evonik has signed an LOI to assess samples, signaling high-level industry validation.
Electrification of Heavy Industry: Plasma Torch Adoption Accelerates
Beyond materials, PyroGenesis is pushing forward on industrial electrification using its patented plasma torch systems. These torches offer a drop-in replacement for fossil-fuel-based burners in high-temperature manufacturing environments like aluminum and steel.
Key Highlights:
Plasma torches demonstrated 45% energy savings versus legacy diesel burners
In certain trials, melting time decreased by 30%, significantly boosting productivity
Major clients include Norsk Hydro, one of the world’s largest aluminum producers, and GE Vernova, with whom PyroGenesis is exploring long-term co-development
These wins are particularly significant because they stem from rigorous, long-cycle evaluations by billion-dollar companies — further proof of the robustness and scalability of PyroGenesis’ technology.
Diversified Business Model Built for Resilience
Rather than relying on a single product or market, PyroGenesis has built a multi-legged platform, delivering solutions across three verticals:
Energy Transition & Emission Reduction
Commodity Security & Optimization
Waste Remediation
This diversified approach offers built-in stability. Should one product line underperform, others can support continued growth — a strategic model that few small-cap companies have executed successfully.
The company’s client base is equally diversified, with customers across North America, Europe, and the Middle East. Its business is also insulated from many trade-policy shocks, thanks to flexible global operations and contracts largely denominated in USD or Euros.
Conclusion: A Rare Small-Cap with Vision, Validation, and Velocity
In a market full of speculative narratives, PyroGenesis offers something different: execution.
Double-digit revenue growth year-over-year
A $55M+ contract backlog with Tier-1 clients
Successful lab-to-pilot transition in fumed silica
Early adoption of plasma torch electrification
And perhaps most important — a CEO with over $10 million of personal capital at stake
PyroGenesis may not yet be a household name, but with multiple industrial revolutions underway — from decarbonization to reshoring of critical materials — it’s a company worth watching.
As Pascali put it, “This is serious work. And we’re just getting started.”

Strategic Acquisition of Lake Cargelligo Gold Project Signals Major Leap in Exploration Ambitions
In a year marked by record-breaking commodity prices and surging investor interest in energy transition minerals, Lancaster Resources Inc. (CSE: LCR | OTC: LANRF | FRA: 6UF0) has secured a commanding position in the gold sector with the acquisition of the Lake Cargelligo Gold Project. Situated in the prolific Cobar mining district of New South Wales, Australia, the project is being heralded by the company as a “potential company-maker”—a bold claim backed by strategic timing, regional geology, and an upgraded executive team with deep expertise in global exploration.
Newly appointed CEO Andrew Watson joined AGORACOM for an in-depth interview, providing insight into the company’s vision, this milestone acquisition, and why 2025 may mark a transformative year for Lancaster Resources.
Gold at All-Time Highs — and a Major Opportunity
The timing of this acquisition is no coincidence. With gold prices recently surpassing US$3,400 per ounce—equivalent to over C$4,700—Watson believes the macroeconomic landscape is setting the stage for gold to outperform. Global instability, inflationary concerns, and central bank buying are pushing gold to historic highs, reinforcing its role as a store of value in times of uncertainty.
“We did a full commodity review in 2024, and gold stood out,” said Watson. “Lake Cargelligo isn’t just another exploration play—it’s a district-scale project with all the geological hallmarks of a large-scale discovery.”
Why Lake Cargelligo Matters
Lancaster’s newly acquired Lake Cargelligo Project spans 28,768 hectares and covers over 25 kilometers of gold-rich strike. Located just 60 km from the producing Mineral Hill Mine, the project sits in one of Australia’s most historically productive but still underexplored gold belts. For Lancaster, this is not just about land—it’s about latent opportunity.
Key Highlights:
Historical bonanza-grade samples up to 204 g/t Au and 273 g/t Ag
Three distinct exploration zones identified along 25 km strike
Geological similarities to Fort Knox (10.8 Moz Au) and Tomingley (1.66 Moz Au)
No modern geophysics applied
“The project shows signs of both lode-style near-surface gold and larger-scale IRGS mineralization,” Watson explained. “That’s the same hybrid system you see at Fort Knox. It’s incredibly promising.”
New Tech, New Team, New Chapter
Watson emphasized that modern exploration tools—including AI-assisted geophysics and aerial survey technology—will be central to Lancaster’s upcoming Q3 2025 field campaign.
“The gold is there. Historical sampling proved that,” he said. “Now it’s about proving the scale—and that’s where new exploration methods come in. We’re using today’s technology to unlock yesterday’s overlooked discoveries.”
Backing this strategic approach is a newly strengthened technical team:
Ross Brown, former Inca Minerals and Oklo executive, joins as VP Exploration with 40 years of global exploration experience.
Rob Heslop steps in as Australia Country Manager, bringing deep local knowledge and field-based expertise.
Watson noted, “Their decision to join Lancaster is strong third-party validation. They’ve seen what’s out there—and they chose this.”
CEO Transition Marks Strategic Shift
Watson’s promotion to CEO marks a notable leadership evolution for Lancaster. With over two decades of experience spanning precious metals, uranium, lithium, and conventional energy, Watson brings both strategic and operational expertise to guide the company’s multi-commodity exploration model.
Since joining as VP of Engineering and Operations, he has spearheaded key acquisitions, including:
Piney Lake Gold Project (Saskatchewan)
Lake Cargelligo Gold Project (Australia)
Uranium claims in the Athabasca Basin
Lithium brine assets in New Mexico
Watson’s cross-sector background also includes clean energy commercialization, having led lithium brine development over 850 square miles during his tenure at Prism Diversified.
More Than Gold: A Diversified Approach to Energy Transition Minerals
While gold is the company’s near-term priority, Watson clarified that Lancaster’s broader thesis extends into uranium and lithium—two commodities critical to global decarbonization and energy storage.
Current Portfolio:
Alkali Flat Lithium Brine Project (New Mexico) — in proximity to geothermal zones and key infrastructure
Catley Lake & Centennial East Uranium Projects (Athabasca Basin, Canada)
Trans-Taiga Hard Rock Lithium Project (James Bay, Quebec)
“We see gold as the right focus today,” said Watson. “But uranium’s role in powering AI infrastructure is growing fast. And lithium demand will rebound—it’s a matter of when, not if.”
Looking Ahead: Execution With Precision
With a financing underway to fund the Q3 exploration program at Lake Cargelligo, Lancaster is poised to enter its next phase of growth. The plan includes:
Geophysics and surface geochemical sampling
AI-integrated targeting of drill zones
A highly selective drill program aimed at verifying historical results and uncovering new zones
“This isn’t a spray-and-pray approach,” Watson emphasized. “It’s disciplined, data-driven, and aimed at delivering shareholder value.”
Conclusion: A Small Cap with Tier-One Potential
Lancaster Resources may be a small-cap company, but its ambitions—and strategic moves—are anything but small. By securing a premier gold project in a Tier-1 jurisdiction and assembling a team capable of executing on a global scale, the company is positioning itself as a serious contender in the resource space.
With gold prices at record highs, uranium demand climbing, and lithium poised for a comeback, Lancaster offers rare multi-commodity exposure at a time when the world’s need for energy transition minerals has never been greater.

HIGHLIGHTS:
Bonanza-Grade Upside: Historic samples up to 204 g/t gold at Lake Cargelligo in Australia’s prolific Cobar Mining District.
Next-Gen Exploration: AI-powered targeting and modern geophysics set to unlock previously missed zones in Q3 2025.
Multi-Commodity Growth: Exposure to gold, uranium (Athabasca Basin), and lithium (James Bay & New Mexico).
Leadership That Delivers: New CEO Andrew Watson brings a capital-efficient strategy backed by a veteran technical team with global discovery success.
In a year when gold just hit an all-time high of $3,430 USD ($4,700 CAD) per ounce, Lancaster Resources is positioning itself squarely at the intersection of market momentum and strategic resource acquisition. The company has secured the Lake Cargelligo project in New South Wales — a 287 sq. km property in the proven but underexplored Cobar Mining District.
CEO Andrew Watson, newly appointed to lead the company through its next phase of growth, calls the project “a potential company-maker” — and not without reason. With historic bonanza-grade samples up to 204 g/t gold and multiple zones of mineralization identified over a 25 km strike length, Lancaster believes it’s targeting the kind of scale that has delivered multi-million-ounce discoveries in the past.
“Lake Cargelligo checks all the boxes: a tier-one mining jurisdiction, historic high-grade samples, and zero modern geophysics. We believe it holds the scale potential of a Fort Knox-style discovery.” – Andrew Watson, CEO, Lancaster Resources
DISTRICT SCALE POTENTIAL
Lake Cargelligo offers district-scale potential in a gold-producing region that already hosts mines with resources exceeding 1.7 million ounces. Lancaster Resources is preparing to deploy next-generation geophysics and AI-powered targeting technologies, aiming to identify mineralized zones that were missed during earlier, shallow drilling campaigns.
To strengthen its exploration program, the company has engaged two seasoned Australian geologists — Ross Brown, with over 40 years of global exploration experience, and Rob Heaslop, known for his operational depth and discovery track record.
STRATEGIC DEPTH: MORE THAN JUST GOLD
While gold remains Lancaster’s near-term focus, the company is building long-term strategic depth across multiple critical commodities. It holds two uranium properties in Canada’s Athabasca Basin — the world’s top uranium district — positioning it to benefit from rising energy demand driven by AI and electrification.
Additionally, its lithium portfolio includes brine assets in New Mexico and hard-rock claims in Quebec’s James Bay region, offering exposure to the growing need for energy storage solutions.
CONCLUSION
Lancaster’s portfolio is aligned with three of the strongest commodity trends in the global market today: gold, uranium, and lithium. With near-term exploration at Lake Cargelligo set to begin in Q3 2025, and a veteran technical team in place, Lancaster is emerging as a compelling small cap to watch.

A Major Step Forward for a Junior Explorer With Proven Vision
In a landscape where small-cap mining companies often struggle to produce meaningful results, Renforth Resources (CSE: RFR | OTC: RFHRF | FSE: 9RR) has just delivered a development that could significantly shift its standing in the gold sector.
In an exclusive interview, CEO Nicole Brewster confirmed a 29% increase in the gold resource at the company’s flagship Parbec Gold Deposit in Quebec. This brings the total to 363,000 ounces of gold, of which 265,000 ounces are now classified as Measured and Indicated—a substantial upgrade in confidence and quality. Notably, 12% of the total ounces are in the Measured category, and 87% of the ounces are within a Whittle pit shell, underscoring the deposit’s open-pit viability and potential economic value.
All of this is happening next door to Agnico Eagle’s Canadian Malartic Mine, one of the largest and most productive gold operations in the country.
Why This Matters: Grade, Location, and Optionality
Renforth’s Parbec project lies on the prolific Cadillac Break, a structure responsible for over 100 million ounces of historical gold production in Canada. Yet Parbec is no mere geological curiosity. It is:
Surface-exposed and fully road-accessible;
Situated beside Canada’s largest open-pit gold mine;
Host to infrastructure including a historic underground ramp;
Surrounded by multiple toll-milling facilities operated by Agnico Eagle and other major producers;
And now, significantly de-risked with its enhanced resource classification.
This strategic location puts Renforth in a rare position to benefit from regional processing demand.
“With this update, 73% of Parbec’s ounces are now in the Measured and Indicated categories,” said Brewster. “We consider Parbec a small-scale replica of Canadian Malartic — same geology, same break, similar surface profile.”
Flexible Pathways to Monetization
Renforth is not committing to a single development path. Instead, it is evaluating a range of monetization options:
Sale: Parbec’s location, ounces, and infrastructure make it an ideal bolt-on asset for a producer like Agnico Eagle, whose “fill-the-mill” strategy is now in full swing following acquisitions like the Marban project.
Joint Venture: Brewster confirmed the company has received partnership inquiries and could benefit from joint development.
Toll Milling / Bulk Sampling: If desired, Renforth could begin small-scale production through existing infrastructure, with low capex and minimal environmental footprint.
Further exploration could still add additional ounces, especially in areas beneath the current pit model and into the Pontiac sediments, where new gold-bearing structures have already been identified.
Macro Tailwinds: Gold’s Rise Aligns With Renforth’s Momentum
The timing of this update couldn’t be more strategic. Gold is trading above $3,200 USD per ounce, and many experts, including Brewster, expect it to remain above $3,000 throughout 2025, driven by central bank buying, geopolitical instability, and inflationary concerns.
Renforth’s latest resource estimate was calculated at $2,100 USD per ounce, suggesting further upside potential if gold prices hold or increase.
Internally, the company has already run sensitivity analyses using higher gold prices, which indicate more ounces could be captured in future updates.
The Bigger Picture: Strategic Fit in a Global Mining Corridor
Renforth’s Parbec project aligns neatly with a growing global emphasis on resource security and domestic development. With Canada reaffirming its role as a stable jurisdiction for mining, and gold once again capturing investor attention, Renforth has a credible, scalable project in a tier-one location.
Add in the exploration upside, established infrastructure, and multiple monetization options, and the result is a company with more than just potential — it has momentum.
Final Thoughts
In an industry where many juniors struggle to translate drill results into real-world opportunity, Renforth Resources has delivered what few others have: a tangible, credible, and increasingly valuable gold asset in one of the world’s most prolific mining jurisdictions.
The 363,000-ounce Parbec resource — 87% of it in an open-pit shell and 265,000 ounces in Measured and Indicated — isn’t just a milestone. It’s a statement.
And as Brewster concluded: “We’re in no rush. Time is on our side — and so is gold.”

In this interview with AGORACOM, Renforth Resources Inc. (CSE: RFR | OTCQB: RFHRF | FSE: 9RR) CEO Nicole Brewster discusses the company’s newly updated 2025 Mineral Resource Estimate for its 100%-owned Parbec Gold Deposit in Quebec — a move that significantly strengthens the company’s value proposition at a time when gold prices continue to surge. The updated estimate now totals 363,000 ounces of gold, marking a 29% increase over the previous figure and signaling growing maturity and confidence in the deposit. Notably, 265,000 ounces are now categorized as Measured and Indicated, and 87% of the total resource sits within an open pit — directly adjacent to Agnico Eagle’s Canadian Malartic Mine, one of Canada’s largest gold operations.
KEY HIGHLIGHTS: Open Pit Advantage: With mineralization starting at surface and a pit depth of 300 meters, Parbec’s economics are compelling, especially with nearby toll milling options. Strategic Fit for Agnico: The project’s location beside Canadian Malartic and proximity to multiple mills makes it a potential solution for Agnico Eagle’s “fill-the-mill” strategy — especially amid $5.6B in M&A activity in the district.
Clear Monetization Path: CEO Nicole Brewster outlines a three-path strategy: sale, joint venture, or self-development, including a plan to initiate stripping and bulk sampling this summer for potential cash flow.
A COMPELLING QUOTE FROM THE CEO “We are very happy to deliver this significant size increase to our open pit gold deposit next door to Agnico Eagle’s Canadian Malartic mine… With this MRE, 87% of the gold ounces within the resource estimate are contained within the accompanying open pit.” — Nicole Brewster, CEO
WHY INVESTORS SHOULD WATCH THIS INTERVIEW Renforth has done what many small caps struggle to achieve: increase its resource size while also upgrading confidence categories — all while controlling costs and maintaining 100% ownership in one of the world’s top-ranked mining jurisdictions. With strategic positioning next to Canada’s mining giant, viable paths to monetization, and growing relevance in a high-gold-price environment, Parbec is moving from potential to probability.
This interview isn’t just an update — it’s a real-time look into how Renforth is strategically unlocking value from its assets and evaluating serious next steps. Watch the full interview now to understand why Renforth could be a key player in Quebec’s next wave of gold development.

Kidoz Inc. (TSXV: KIDZ), the global leader in child-safe mobile advertising, just posted its strongest quarter to date—solidifying its position as the default monetization platform for digital content aimed at children under 13.
With quarterly revenue hitting $10.7 million and a pre-tax profit of $2.9 million, the company not only returned to profitability but also showcased the strength of its privacy-first model in a rapidly evolving regulatory environment.
STRATEGIC GROWTH BACKED BY INDUSTRY GIANTS
Kidoz’s impressive growth is underpinned by key partnerships and widespread industry adoption:
Integrated into nearly 5,000 kid-focused apps
Reaches over 400 million monthly active users globally
Trusted by brands like Disney, LEGO, Mattel, McDonald’s, and Hasbro
Certified partner of Apple and Google
The company’s AI-powered contextual ad engine, which targets content—not personal behavior—is proving essential as tech platforms introduce tools to support age-appropriate experiences.
THE KID SAFE REGULATORY ADVANTAGE
As lawmakers tighten the rules around data privacy—particularly for children—Kidoz stands apart. The company is fully compliant with global standards like COPPA and GDPR-K and is already aligned with forthcoming legislation like COPPA 2.0, which will mandate age-gating and data separation for under-13 audiences.
“Unlike traditional ad networks, we don’t collect our profile user data. Our contextual AI targeting is designed from the ground up to protect kids’ privacy—and that’s become our biggest competitive advantage.” — Jason Williams, CEO of Kidoz Inc.
Kidoz has committed to maintaining quarterly profitability throughout 2025. With regulators enforcing stricter data use policies and major brands seeking safe ad environments, the company is capturing a growing share of a market forecast to surpass $100 billion in digital ad spend.
With a clear regulatory tailwind, scalable technology, and a rapidly growing client base, Kidoz is not just adapting to change—it’s defining the future of child-focused digital advertising.
