Naked short selling has emerged as a significant threat to Canadian small-cap companies, costing the sector an estimated $1 trillion, according to Terry Lynch referencing a recent Globe & Mail article. This alarming statistic underscores the urgent need for reform in the Canadian market. Lynch is not only at the helm of Power Nickel but also the driving force behind “Save Canadian Mining,” an advocacy group committed to protecting small-cap stocks. The group boasts support from industry heavyweights like Eric Sprott, Keith Neumayer, and Robert McEwen, all of whom have contributed their time and resources over the past four years to combat the detrimental effects of illegal short selling.
A History of Advocacy
In the last year, Save Canadian Mining has organized major webcasts to shed light on these issues. The initiative kicked off with the Black Friday event in November 2023, featuring experts Wes Christian and David Wenger. They discussed a groundbreaking New York case where broker-dealers were deemed liable for failing to fulfill their “gatekeeping responsibilities” in monitoring client trading actions.
This was followed by the Good Friday video in March 2024, during which Lynch and his team uncovered the alarming mechanisms facilitating rampant naked short selling. They outlined actionable steps regulators could take to put an end to these practices, galvanizing thousands of small-cap companies and investors to join the cause.
Recent Developments
The outreach efforts have not gone unnoticed. Following the substantial interest generated by these videos, Save Canadian Mining secured meetings with key officials in the Ontario Provincial Government. This momentum led to a strategic pause in the campaign to allow for potential regulatory reforms.
However, a recent legal filing in the Supreme Court of British Columbia has revealed troubling evidence of collusion between banks and regulators aimed at suppressing the truth about these illicit trading practices. This documentation includes:
12 Years of Data
166 Exhibits
3,631 Pages of Evidence
The findings suggest a “pattern consistent with the definition of organized crime,” amplifying the seriousness of the situation and the need for immediate action.
The Big Push
As the campaign gears up for a class-action lawsuit against one of Canada’s major banks, Save Canadian Mining is mobilizing hundreds of small-cap companies, their investors, and vendors. A coordinated social media campaign is set to amplify their message, making it impossible for banks, regulators, and government officials to ignore the growing demand for fair markets.
Lynch and his team are not just advocating for change; they are actively calling on investors to engage passionately on social media. An exciting announcement has been hinted at in the latest video, which includes an Easter egg that active participants will surely want to discover.
Conclusion
The time for action is now. As Save Canadian Mining embarks on this significant initiative, it invites everyone—investors, small-cap companies, and industry stakeholders—to share their message across social media platforms. Together, we can push for a more equitable Canadian market that protects investors and ensures a level playing field.
Let the Big Push begin! Thank you for your support and for sharing this vital message within your networks.

Main Shear Confirmed Along 2 km Strike Length
Drilling at Stover continues to intersect broad zones of gold mineralization
3.0 m grading 4.0 g/t Au within a broader intersection of 49 m grading 0.7 g/t Au
Manitou Gold Inc. (TSX-V: MTU) (the “Company” or “Manitou”) is pleased to announce additional assay results from its ongoing 10,000 metre drill program along the eastern portion of the Baltimore deformation zone (the “BDZ”) on its 100% owned Goudreau Project in Northeastern Ontario.
Highlights of drill results are from the Stover zone and newly identified extension zones, where the Company is reporting assay results from an additional eight drill holes completed in February of this year. Drilling is ongoing, with two diamond drill rigs currently testing the Stover zone and 28 other high priority targets on the eastern 4 kms of the 18 km length of the BDZ on Manitou property.
Highlights:
Drilling at Stover continues to intersect broad zones of gold mineralization down plunge of previously announced, shallow drill hole intersections, with highlights including:
3.0 m grading 4.0 g/t Au within a broader intersection of 49 m grading 0.7 g/t Au (starting at 291 m down hole) in hole MTU-21-10, located approximately 200 metres down-plunge of hole MTU-20-56, which intersected 15 m grading 1.5 g/t Au, including 5.3 m at 2.7 g/t Au; and
36.5 m grading 0.5 g/t Au (starting at 186.9 m down hole), including 4.4 m at 1.8 g/t Au in hole MTU-21-07, located 150 m up plunge of MTU-21-10.
Identified significant gold mineralization over widths of up to 12 m in step-out holes located 1.2 kms east and 600 m west of the Stover zone along the “Main shear”;
The Main shear has now been drill confirmed along 2 km of strike length.
All gold zones encountered along the BDZ to date remain open in all directions; additional drilling to test for higher grade shoots is ongoing. A second diamond drill is completing follow-up hole in the vicinity of the step-out drilling to determine the extent of gold mineralization in these new areas.
Aggressive step-down drill-hole underway with hole MTU-21-12, which targets the Stover zone 200 m down-plunge from the deepest intercept to date. Hole MTU-21-12 is an aggressive step-down drill hole which targets the mineralized zone at a vertical depth of approximately 450 metres.
“Our exploration thesis for the BDZ is that the orogenic gold environment proven up by our neighbours to the west is intact, with the main gold bearing sections beginning at depths of several hundred metres below surface. The deeper we have drilled on the Stover zone, the more confirmation we are getting in this regard. I am very optimistic about the ongoing hole MTU-21-12, which is testing 200 metres below our most recent, highest grade intersection to date,” stated Richard Murphy, President and CEO of Manitou Gold. “I am also looking forward to the results of our ongoing geophysical surveys, which are covering the western ten kilometres of the BDZ on Manitou Property. I expect that we will be ramping up our exploration drilling to test new targets in this area.”
Stover Zone
Today’s results from the Stover zone includes two drill holes collared 50 m and 200 m down-plunge of previously released drill holes, (see news release dated December 16, 2020 & news release January dated January 12, 2021) which intersected up to 39.9 m at 0.5 g/t in hole MTU-20-49, 0.8 g/t Au over 18.0 m, including 3.3 g/t Au over 2.1 m in hole MTU-20-52 and 15 m grading 1.5 g/t Au, including 5.3 m at 2.7 g/t Au in hole MTU-20-56.
Hole MTU-21-07 returned 36.5 m at 0.5 g/t Au (starting at 186.9 m down hole), including 4.4 m at 1.8 and Hole MTU-21-10 intersected 49 m at 0.7 g/t Au (starting at 291 m down hole), including 3.0 m at 4.0 g/t Au.
The new results demonstrate the down-plunge continuity of mineralization and validate the interpretation of steeply westerly plunging shoots. Drill results to date demonstrate the continuity of mineralization over a distance of 200 metres along strike and 350 metres down plunge.
The company is now completing an aggressive step-down drill hole which targets the mineralized zone at a vertical depth of approximately 450 metres and 200 metres down plunge of the deepest intercept to date.

Ongoing 10,000 m drill program along the southeastern segment of the Baltimore deformation zone
Focus of continued drilling is 10km of strike length along the BDZ
BDZ remains largely unexplored with only 4,400 m of historic drilling for gold
A 2nd diamond drill is testing new targets along 4km of the BDZ
Manitou Gold Inc. (TSX-V: MTU) (the “Company” or “Manitou”) today provided an update on its ongoing 10,000 m drill program along the southeastern segment of the Baltimore deformation zone (the “BDZ”). Additionally, the Company has commenced a 300 line kilometer ground geophysical survey covering an additional 10 kilometers of strike length along the BDZ, which will be the focus of continued drilling.
The BDZ is an emerging crustal scale structural corridor that is the extension of the prolific Goudreau-Localsh deformation zone (the “GLDZ”), which hosts the majority of gold deposits in the northeastern Michipicoten greenstone belt. The BDZ is centrally located in the eastern half of the Company’s land package, which covers nearly 350 square kilometers.
Highlights:
The BDZ represents a crustal-scale fault system that is the key target for orogenic gold mineralization and the extension of the Goudreau-Localsh deformation zone, which hosts two multi-million ounce gold deposits.
The GLDZ has been tested with more than 1,000,000 m of diamond drilling for gold, whereas the BDZ remains largely unexplored with only 4,400 m of historic drilling for gold:
○ The cumulative drilling along GLDZ resulted in the discovery of 6 orebodies to date;
○ Recent results with intercepts of up to 15 m grading 1.5 g/t Au, including 5.3 m at 2.7 g/t Au in hole MTU-20-56 demonstrate that the BDZ is a fertile corridor for orogenic gold deposits;
○ The BDZ on Manitou ground covers an equivalent length and area as the GLDZ and provides abundant opportunity for discovery of multiple gold deposits.
The “Main Shear”, which dominates the central corridor of the BDZ and hosts the Stover zone, has been confirmed by drilling to be continuous for over 2 km:
○ Two step-out holes located approximately 600 m west and 1,200 m east along strike of hole MTU-20-49 (39.9 m at 0.5 g/t) display zones of deformation, alteration and mineralization similar to that of the Stover zone (assay results pending);
○ The Stover zone remains open in all directions; additional drilling to test for higher grade shoots is ongoing. The target mineralized zone has been intersected in three recent drill holes, for which assays are pending;
○ A second diamond drill is testing new targets along a 4 km portion of the BDZ.
Chilean Metals sold its Copaquire property to Teck Resources Limited for $C3,033,500, with CMX retaining a 3% NSR (net smelter return) royalty on production.

Mineral showings are described to be Polymetallic veins that contain quantities of silver, lead, zinc, plus/minus gold and plus/minus copper.
Predominantly all share transaction with $1.8m of work commitments
About the Golden Ivan Property
The Golden Ivan property is situated toward the south of British Columbia’s prolific ‘Golden Triangle
The Golden Ivan property is located approximately 15km south west of the Red Mountain Gold/Silver deposit and 30 km south of the historic Premier Gold mine.
Several mineralized veins of the Porter–Idaho Deposit strike onto the Golden Ivan property’s
The property is under explored, however 3 anomalies identified for future exploration
Future Exploration:
The initial phase of exploration is anticipated to include:
systematic geological structural and alteration mapping
geochemical sampling across the property to determine any local areas of anomalism
ground-based geophysics to confirm local structural trends
initial drill program expected in the summer of 2021.
Previous Work:
The property hosts two (2) known mineral showings (Gold Ore, and Magee),and a portion of the past producing Silverado Mine, which was reportedly exploited between 1921 and 1939.
Mineral showings are described to be Polymetallic veins that contain quantities of Silver, Lead, Zinc +/- Gold +/- Copper.
Numerous additional mineral occurrences, showings and past procuring mines are located in the immediate areas surrounding the property, further supporting the presence of widespread mineralization in the areas.
In 2018 Precision Geophysics completed an 88-line kilometre combined magnetic and gamma-ray spectrometry survey on behalf of the vendor Granby Gold Inc. Standard magnetics and radiometric data products were prepared and additional interpolate structural analyses were performed on the collected data.
A number of areas of coincident magnetic and radiometric anomalism have been identified, additionally ‘structurally prepared’ zones are identified from the structural analysis interpolates.
Such characteristics are widely regarded as favourable indicators of widespread hydrothermal alteration aka Porphyries, and will likely aid in vectoring toward any causative source intrusions that may be located on the property.
Teck Royalty
Chilean Metals sold its Copaquire property to Teck Resources Limited for Cad. $3,033,500, with CMX retaining a 3% NSR (net smelter return) royalty on production.
Teck has the right to purchase one third of the NSR for Cad. $3,000,000, thereby presenting the Company with near-term cash flow potential.
The royalty, whether 3% or reduced to 2% through Teck exercising its right,
has potential to provide significant future benefit to the Company in terms of non-dilutive exploration funding and/or
dividends to our shareholders,
may provide a model for the Company’s future accretive growth.
Copaquire is located in Chile’s 1st Region, 125 kms south of its capital city, Iquique, on upland plateau in a very well-endowed mineral neighbourhood and readily accessible via well-maintained all-weather roads.
The project adjoins Teck’s Quebrada Blanca mine, where leachable copper reserves will be depleted by 2016 at current production and reserve levels (Teck website). Anglo-Xstrata-Mitsui’s colossal Collahuasi copper mine also lies nearby.
Copaquire boasts two 43-101-compliant resources:
Sulfato South (dominantly copper)
Cerro Moly (dominantly molybdenum)
Tierra de Oro
Tierra Del Oro (Land of Gold) project in 3rd Region of Atacama about 75 km south of Copiapó, Chile.
Future work involves a targeted Geophysics
Coordinate 2nd drill program in Q3
Previous exploration data generated by both the company and other historic operators have been compiled and 8,660 training points were subjected to evaluation by Windfall’s propriety CARDS AI model. CARDS uses data mining techniques to analyze compiled exploration data and to identify areas target zones with high statistical similarity to known “signatures” of areas of copper, gold, and silver mineralization (Figures 3 and 4 below). A total of thirteen (13) prospective target zones were identified by the prediction analysis, of which in Phase 1 the company has elected to drill test two of the zones.
The ‘Chanchero’ Zone has previously been identified as being prospective for copper porphyry-style mineralization. The area comprises a 0.75 square kilometers zone of argillic and quartz-sericite-pyrite alteration hosted by augite-hornblende diorite to granodiorite with roof pendants of hornblende monzonite. The area was surveyed by 3-D Induced Polarization (IP) methods in 2008 and generated a chargeability anomaly greater at than 50MV/V at its core which is open at depth. The area was the focus of four (4) core holes that proposed to intersect the chargeability anomaly longitudinally and at depth. A two-meter sample at 120 m depth had a grade of 716 g / t Silver and 0.453% Copper was intersected in hole 3 on the figure below.
Figure 1: Locations of 4 Proposed drill holes at the Chanchero target, relative to the outline/projected shape of the greater at than 50MV/V chargeability anomaly as defined by the 2008 3-D Induced Polarization survey.
The ‘Cobalt’ zone is an AI generated target Gold anomaly that occurs along a pronounced structure and is located along strike from existing shallow artisanal gold workings. A single core hole was orientated to intersect the structure at depth below the projected level of the adjacent historical workings. No material results were generated at this target during the drilling.

The two companies to jointly develop a patentable industrial scale process for Electric Vehicle Lithium-ion battery (LIB) recycling.
Altair International Corp. (the “Company” or “Altair”) (OTC: ATAO) is pleased to provide an update on its previously announced partnership with St-Georges Eco-Mining Corp. (CSE: SX) (OTC: SXOOF) (FSE: 85G1) (“St-Georges”) a Canadian public company engaged in the development of new Lithium extraction technologies.
On December 1, 2020 the two companies entered into a Binding agreement that would allow Altair access to St-Georges’ patent-pending Lithium processing technology for Altair’s Nevada based Stonewall project and most importantly bring together the two companies to jointly develop a patentable industrial scale process for Electric Vehicle Lithium-ion battery (LIB) recycling.
As the global Electric Vehicle (EV) market heats up over the coming decade, the demand for battery metals is expected to outpace current production. Even with increased energy density and charge cycles, Lithium based batteries for EVs, laptops, phones and other mobile devices will create cumulative waste challenges both in the environmental footprint of production and end-of-life LIB disposal.
Altair and St-Georges recognize that new optimized recycling technologies will offer valuable solutions to both a waste-management and battery metal supply. Selective, economic and responsible metal extraction of spent LIBs will be an integral part of the multi-billion dollar green economy and play a crucial part in the future of EV dominance of the automotive sector.
