Wingdam

Omineca Mining and Metals Ltd. (OMM:TSX.V; OMMSF:OTCMKTS) will be in production shortly at the Wingdam project on Lighting Creek in BC. They are being very quiet about it but it's happening. That's a big deal and why the shares have shot from $0.15 in the middle of May to a high of $0.70 on July 2, 2020. Tom MacNeill as President and CEO heads Omineca.

The MacNeill family also runs a company named 49North Resources Inc. (FNR:TSX.V) that is pretty much a fund holding positions in about 60 different juniors in both energy and minerals. FNR owns 45 million shares of OMM. With OMM at $0.68 that makes the portion owned by FNR worth about $30 million.

With FNR shares selling for $0.14, that makes FNR's market cap about $11.6 million. FNR does have debt in the form of a convertible debenture but they also have pieces of about 59 other companies than Omineca.

So if you buy 49North shares today you are basically buying Omineca shares at half price.

Omineca Mining is not an advertiser and I have no financial relationship other than having participated in the last PP at $0.12 with a full $0.20 warrant. The four-month hold doesn't expire until August 28th so there is literally no overhead.

49North Resources is also not an advertiser but I can both add and subtract so I have picked up shares in the open market.

To the extent that everyone that owns shares is somewhat biased, I am biased so you should do your own due diligence.
