Current Funding Phase
Phase 1 — Diligence Bridge / Title & Technical Work
The best immediate path is a smaller diligence bridge ($50K–$500K) to fund title work, an updated qualified-person mining report, legal opinion, and permitting review. A larger facility (private mineral lender, operator JV, or royalty/streaming) requires the complete package.
Do not present this asset as "$8.3B ready to borrow against." Present it as a mineral-rights prospect with an engineering appraisal that requires updated title, reserve, permitting, environmental, legal, and lender diligence before financing.
