Axel Merk: Treasury Is Patching the Problem—and Gold Loves It

Gold surged after Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent announced plans to more than double buybacks of longer-dated U.S. government debt. Axel Merk of Merk Investments joins Trevor Hall to break down what the move really means for the Treasury market, interest rates, the U.S. dollar, and precious metals—and why the signaling from Washington may be more important than the actual size of the program. Axel explains why long-term Treasury yields have climbed toward levels not seen in nearly two decades, how persistent U.S. deficits are affecting the cost of capital, and why Treasury's intervention addresses the symptoms rather than the underlying fiscal problem. The conversation also examines the important distinction between Bessent's actions and the Federal Reserve's post-financial-crisis Operation Twist, as well as what an activist Treasury could mean for Fed Chair Kevin Warsh and monetary policy. The discussion then turns to gold and gold mining equities. Axel explains why gold responded so strongly to Treasury's announcement, how the metal's relationship with real rates and inflation expectations is evolving, and why generalist portfolio managers may be taking a more serious look at mining companies as sector profitability remains historically strong. ______ Terrahutton empowers junior mining companies to secure investment with immersive, interactive, and visually striking storytelling.

Lode Gold's Wendy Chan: Reactivating a Gold Mine Suspended During WWII

Wendy Chan, CEO of Lode Gold Resources, joins Mining Stock Daily to break down the company's flagship Fremont Gold Mine project in Mariposa County, California — a fully patented, past-producing underground mine that's been sitting dormant since a 1942 wartime shutdown despite historical grades of 10.7 g/t gold. She walks through the recently updated mineral resource estimate (1.11 Moz Indicated at 1.84 g/t and 1.98 Moz Inferred at 1.86 g/t) and the incremental permitting approach the company is using to fast-track toward a 2027 pre-feasibility study. Chan also touches on the recently closed $9.7 million financing, AI-generated drill targets, and Lode Gold's broader portfolio, including the Dingman project in Ontario.

He also provides insight into Mojave’s deep oxidation profile, upcoming targets and plans to potentially add a second drill to accelerate the program. With drilling expected to continue through the remainder of 2026, K2 anticipates steady news flow as it tests the scale of the Mojave system.

Collective Mining Closes in on a Maiden Resource for Apollo

Collective Mining Executive Chairman Ari Sussman joins Trevor Hall to discuss the company’s move to the Nasdaq and why Colombia’s new pro-growth government could open an important window for mine development. Ari outlines the path toward a maiden resource estimate for the Apollo system in September, followed by accelerated permitting and a potential construction decision later this decade. The conversation also covers development of the exploration adit toward Apollo, the significant discovery potential at Trap and Plutus, and how that underground infrastructure could eventually become part of a future mining operation. Finally, Ari discusses Collective’s relationship with local communities and the company’s response following the recent earthquake in western Colombia.
