Interview with Kiran Patankar, President & CEO of Maple Gold MinesOur previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/maple-gold-mines-tsxvmgm-turnaround-100-ownership-46-leaner-and-agnico-at-its-side-7230Recording date: 18th July 2025Maple Gold Mines (TSXV: MGM) has emerged as a compelling exploration story in Quebec's Abitibi Greenstone Belt following the successful completion of its most substantial drilling program in nearly two years. The company's 2025 winter drilling campaign at its flagship Douay Gold Project delivered exceptional results that validate management's strategy to build a multi-million ounce gold district.The 12,240-meter program achieved a remarkable 100% success rate, with gold mineralization intersected in all 21 holes while coming in under budget at $300 per meter versus $400 budgeted. Standout results included 4.87 g/t gold over 15 meters in the 531 Zone and 2.21 g/t gold over 31 meters in the Nika Zone, representing significant step-outs that extend mineralization 200-600 meters below current resource pit shells.President and CEO Kiran Patankar emphasized the systematic approach: "When you have consistency, when you hit gold in every hole, when you are doing bolder stepouts... having 100% success rate while executing properly, being under budget, having a great cost saving and safety performance, all that stuff is important when you have a major partner."Maple Gold currently controls over 3 million ounces of gold resources at Douay, positioning it among fewer than 20 companies that fully own multi-million ounce projects in Canada. The company is targeting expansion to 5 million ounces through continued exploration, with both high-grade zones remaining open in multiple directions.The development strategy balances scale with economics, envisioning an initial 100,000-150,000 ounce annual operation that leverages current gold prices above $3,300 per ounce. Following restructuring to 100% ownership, Maple Gold maintains strategic partnership benefits with Agnico Eagle while gaining operational control for more efficient capital deployment. With a resource update planned by year-end 2025 and potential preliminary economic assessment by early 2026, the company is well-positioned to advance toward development in Quebec's premier mining jurisdiction.View Maple Gold Mines' company profile: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/companies/maple-gold-mines-ltdSign up for Crux Investor: https://cruxinvestor.com
