Hey everyone,
Just read this article about Boroo looking to snatch up the Eagle Gold Mine in Yukon: https://www.mining.com/boroo-eyes-purchase-of-eagle-gold-mine-in-yukon/. Interesting news, especially with the PWC report putting the asset value at C$824.7 million. My first thought was, "Wow, that's a big bite for Boroo!" I've been dabbling a bit more in junior miners lately, especially with the gold price doing its thing, and always keep an eye on Yukon plays. This region has so much potential, but also some unique operational challenges, as many of us who've looked at northern resources know. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out, particularly with the previous owner's issues.
I'm curious to hear what you all think. Has anyone here invested in Boroo previously, or have any experience with them? Also, given the size of this acquisition and the valuation, do you think it's a good move for Boroo's long-term growth, or are they potentially overpaying given the previous operational hiccups at the mine? I'm always looking for ways to strengthen my portfolio for retirement, and solid, sustainable growth from miners is a key part of my strategy, especially as I'm trying to leave a decent nest egg for my kids. Let me know your thoughts!
