Jonathan Awde, President and CEO of Dakota Gold Corp, listed on the NYSE are a junior mining gold exploration and development company with a specific focus on revitalizing the Homestake District in Lead, South Dakota. Jonathan spent the last 15 years raising financing for various junior resource companies, focusing on institutional accounts, high net worth, and family offices, and has raised more than $600 million for public and private companies in the natural resources sector during this period. He gives us an update since we last spoke on Dakota Gold’s projects and what they have achieved and his opinion of what's happening in the gold market. KEY TAKEAWAYS Dakota Gold Corp's Progress: Dakota Gold Corp has made significant progress since the last podcast episode nearly two years ago, moving past the proof of concept stage to determine the size of their gold system.

They have also found a new type of mineralization at the Unionville project, showcasing the potential for multiple discoveries. Dakota Gold Corp is set to release a maiden resource for the Richmond Hill project next month, compiling historical drill holes and new ones to outline the resource's potential for expansion and growth.
