Banyan Gold Corp. (TSXV: BYN, OTCQB: BYAGF)
Banyan Gold’s AurMac Project is located in Canada’s Yukon Territory and hosts an Indicated Mineral Resource of 3.64 million ounces of gold and an Inferred Mineral Resource of 4.98 million ounces of gold (updated May 2026*). Banyan’s strategy remains focused on expanding and upgrading resources while advancing AurMac toward development – all supported by extensive drilling, strong infrastructure, and year-round access. The Company is currently executing a 70,000-metre drill program, with six drills active and ~$70 Million in the treasury. Mineralization remains open in all directions, with significant upside potential, particularly at depth. The Company’s maiden Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) is targeted for H2 2026, representing the next major value-inflection milestone for the project.
With roads and power, near-surface ounces, and significant grade and scale upside, AurMac’s growth potential is hard to ignore. Major strategic shareholders include Osisko Development, Alpayana SAC and significant insider ownership.
