121 Mining Conference London – 2025
London mining season kicked off with the 121 mining conference at Houndsditch this week.
Sadly the buzz that was evident at a recent presentation when gold was riding the crest of the wave seems to have evaporated, despite gold remaining above $4,000.
This is despite gold remaining above $4,000, but below the heady $4,300 level. As a result producing gold and silver mining stock prices have been hit hard, blowing the exuberance away in the process.
I had some good meeting and do feel that stock prices are due another rise as long as gold holds around the current level or moves higher.
Of the companies that I met, Dolly Varden, Lahontan Gold, and Silver Storm caught my attention and merit further review.
I recently added Silver Storm to the Tier 2 watchlist of developing companies, due to its offtake deal with Samsung, low market cap, and imminent production in Q1 or Q2 2026.
Dolly Varden have a quality management team, and will publish a new Mineral Resource Estimate in Q1 2026. They are also looking for potential acquisitions.
Lahontan Gold is a small cap early stage exploration play with a past producing open pit gold project, Santa Fe, located in the Walker Lane Trend in Nevada. Run by Kimberley Ann, who has enjoyed success in the past with a number of exploration companies.
Lahontan have other former producing open pit projects in the same trend, including Santa Fe West, and Moho. In addition there is a disseminated silver project.
——-
The show itself, as I mentioned earlier, lacked the buzz I was expecting, due to prices having fallen back quite sharply from their highs despite gold being within 7% of its all-time high.
I noticed a few economy measures, such as no servers for the food, and the food selection had moved somewhat downmarket from previous shows.
My main complaint was the lack of seating given the wide open spaces in the concourse area. Surely they can provide a few more tables for people to sit and eat on?
All in all a good show, and I expect to make a couple of additions to my portfolio as a result of the meetings that I had.
