Kingsview is a Vancouver-based mineral exploration and development company that explores for gold and copper near Wawa, Ontario, Canada. The Company’s flagship project is the 100%-owned Echum Project covering an area of 7,691 hectares and an NI 43-101 technical report for the project was released on SEDAR in February 2022. It also holds a 100%-interest in the Hubcap Project, which contains the former Centennial and Lendrum properties, consisting of 4,163 hectares.
Investment Thesis and Upcoming Catalysts:
- District-scale Projects in the Wawa Gold Greenstone Belt:
- Kingsview controls a large land package (11,854 hectares) of two highly prospective gold exploration projects (Echum and Hubcap) that are located in the Michipicoten Greenstone Belt, part of the Wawa Gold Belt.
- Echum (7,691 hectares) is the main project and historic grab samples returned high-grade assays including 7.49 oz/ton (256.80 g/t) Au with 12.91 oz/ton (442.63 g/t) Ag.
- The Hubcap Project (4,163 hectares) contains a past-producing mine with historic underground samples reportedly returning up to 80 g/t gold, and other historic grab sample values of up to 11.2 oz/ton (383 g/t gold) Au and 6.4 oz/ton (219 g/t) Ag.
- Greenstone belts are important because they are synonymous with high-grade Au production and can contain ore deposits of Au, Ag, copper (Cu), lead (Pb), and zinc (Zn).
- Value Creation Opportunity:
- Kingsview is taking a systematic and methodical approach to evaluating, targeting, and drilling this underexplored land package. Due to the quality of assets and resource growth potential of the mining properties, the Company has a significant value creation opportunity.
- It owns (100%) the Echum Gold Project that hosts several untested targets. The area has experienced a significant resurgence in mining activity and investment with the expansion of Alamos Gold’s (TSX:AGI) Island Gold Mine and Argonaut Gold’s (TSX:AR) Magino project, which is currently under construction.
- See Section 4 of the Initiation Report for other companies working in the area.
- An Experienced Team with a History of Success:
- Kingsview has an experienced leadership team with a solid track record of operational and financial performance.
- The technical team has a thorough knowledge of Ontario geology, with experience from early-stage exploration to mine development, and has been part of teams that discovered economic mineral deposits, including two of the three Hemlo Gold Camp mines.
- Solid Infrastructure with a 100-Year-Old History of Mining:
- Canada is a mining-friendly jurisdiction with a transparent regulatory regime.
- Ontario is regarded as a tier-1 mining jurisdiction with an abundance of expertise and overlooked regions of high mineral potential.
- The property is located along Provincial Highway 651, the main line of the Canadian Pacific Railway is located about 4 km to the east of the property, and a powerline runs along Hwy 651.
Financial Analysis & Valuation:
- We are valuing Kingsview using a Comparative Company Valuation methodology, relative to other early-stage companies with exploration projects in Canada and based on the exploration potential at Echum.
- We are assuming the Company will be successful in closing at least $0.7 million in financings over the next 12 months to fund exploration until C2023 and will find mineralized zones that warrant further exploration.
- The valuation is based on a Fully Diluted Share count in one year from now of 41.3 million shares and an Enterprise Value of $16.1 million.
We are Initiating Coverage with a Speculative Buy rating and one-year price target of $0.40.
