Interview with George Bee, President and CEO, US Gold Corp Our previous interview: https://www.cruxinvestor.com/posts/us-gold-corp-nasdaqusau-permitted-gold-copper-project-targets-january-dfs-with-17moz-reserve-8558 Recording date: 2nd December 2025 US Gold Corp is positioning itself as one of the few fully permitted gold development projects in the United States as it prepares to release a feasibility study for its CK Gold Project in Wyoming. President and CEO George Bee, speaking at the Resourcing Tomorrow conference in London, outlined the company's timeline for transitioning from developer to producer while maintaining significant exploration upside in Nevada. The feasibility study, expected in January 2026, incorporates advanced Jameson cell flotation technology that delivers improved recovery rates with lower capital and operating costs compared to conventional processing methods. The company has also optimized its tailings management system, switching to continuous belt filtration for enhanced efficiency. While inflation will impact some cost estimates, Bee emphasized that rising gold, copper, and silver prices more than offset these increases. The CK Gold Project benefits from exceptional infrastructure, located just 90 minutes from Denver International Airport via interstate highways. This strategic positioning enables a daily commuting workforce, eliminating remote camp costs while providing access to established mining services. The local utility will provide power infrastructure through a substation connection, with the company paying only demand charges rather than capitalizing construction costs. Development activities have commenced with access road construction beginning December 2025 using existing treasury funds. Following financing completion in the first half of 2026, heavy earthworks will progress through 2027, with major equipment installation occurring year-end 2027. Commissioning is scheduled for late 2027, positioning the project for commercial production in 2028. The operation will produce approximately 110,000 gold equivalent ounces annually over an initial 10-year mine life, generating a clean copper-gold concentrate attractive to smelters. Once CK generates cash flow, management plans to self-fund exploration at the Keystone project in Nevada, located 11 miles from Barrick's Cortez complex in the same geological environment as world-class Carlin-type deposits. This strategy allows US Gold to pursue district-scale discovery potential without shareholder dilution while maintaining its near-term focus on construction execution.
