City Investors Circle Mining Review 7th December 2025
A long week of conferences in London as Mining Week 2025 closed on Friday, after having three conferences in six days.
The week started with the Northern Miner Symposium (it sounds so much more sophisticated than conference does it not?) at the 121 venue at Houndsditch.
The event is a lot smaller than 121, and set on a different floor. There were around 20 companies exhibiting, so not a great deal of choice, and upon reviewing the list I was in two minds whether to attend at all.
I settled for arranging a few meetings after lunch on the final day, so I arrived just before lunch and then had a full afternoon.
Gunnison Copper enter the hall of infamy for keeping me waiting outside their booth whilst the previous meeting carried on. Meetings were only 15 minutes long, so after waiting for five minutes where I could clearly be seen, I left so as not to waste any more time. If they had a good meeting in progress, at least say so, I wouldn’t have minded.

On the first day of Mines and Money I had a private investor annual lunch to attend, so my first experience was on day 2. Registration was easy, and no queues as it was the second day.
My impression is that it was smaller than last year. I had arranged a good number of meetings to comply with the five meeting free entry rule, although in all honesty there were few companies in the show that got my interest. I am selective these days, there’s no point in wasting everyone’s time if a company’s story doesn’t fit my investment criteria.
I had a few good meetings and a few potential new investments to consider, Dakota Gold being the standout for me. It has an experienced successful CEO, Rob Quartermain, is located in a tier 1 jurisdiction, the USA, is a former producing gold mine steeped in history and production, is well funded and backed by institutions of the highest calibre.
I am reviewing the other companies I engaged with, and may add one or two to the watchlist. Dakota Gold is going on the Tier 3 watchlist as production is some three years away as it currently stands.
