Steve Yang of Natural Resource Stocks sits down with Tara Christie, President and Chief Executive Officer and Director of Banyan Gold Corp., to examine the AurMac Gold Project in Yukon, Canada. Banyan reports a current mineral resource of 3.639 million indicated gold ounces and 4.985 million inferred gold ounces across the Powerline and Airstrip deposits. Christie explains why road access, grid power, nearby hydroelectric infrastructure, cell service and moderate topography distinguish AurMac from many undeveloped gold projects.
The discussion covers Banyan’s first preliminary economic assessment targeted for the fourth quarter of 2026, its fully funded 70,000 metre drill program and its strategy for demonstrating exploration upside. Christie addresses grade, metallurgy, permitting, First Nations engagement, development timelines and the valuation gap she sees between Banyan and more advanced projects. She also discusses ten regional targets, including targets identified through geological work and artificial intelligence, across a large Yukon land position where only a small percentage has been drilled.
Christie explains that she has invested more than 2.8 million dollars of her own capital in Banyan and has not sold shares from exercised options to date. She discusses her responsibility to shareholders, Banyan’s expanding technical team and its focus on deploying capital efficiently into exploration and project advancement.
