Hey everyone,
Just read this article over on mining.com: The new king of The Ring of Fire? Robert Cudney’s big bet. Always interesting to see the moves happening in the junior mining space, especially with critical minerals heating up. The snippet about Juno controlling nearly half the camp and advancing discoveries at scale really caught my eye. I've been dabbling in a few junior explorers for my retirement fund, mostly in base metals, but the gold and critical mineral combo in the Ring of Fire is definitely compelling. It makes me wonder if I should be re-evaluating some of my current holdings or looking to diversify a bit more heavily into this region. The "big bet" aspect always gets me – it's where the real money is made, but also where it can evaporate fastest, as I learned the hard way with that lithium play back in '18!
What are your thoughts on this? Has anyone here been following Juno or other players in the Ring of Fire? My wife keeps reminding me to be careful with speculative plays, especially with the kids' college funds looming, but the potential here feels pretty massive if they hit it big. It's not often you hear about a company getting such a dominant position in a promising critical mineral area. I'm curious what kind of timelines you guys are seeing for projects like this to move from discovery to actual production. From my limited experience, that's often the biggest hurdle and where many juniors stumble.
Always appreciate the community's insights. Let me know what you think!
