Equinox Gold (TSX: EQX; NYSE-A: EQX) promoted chief operating officer Darren Hall to the post of CEO to replace founding shareholder Greg Smith, who is stepping down.

Equinox Gold (TSX, NYSE-A: EQX) surged to its highest in over three years after reporting second-quarter earnings results that beat analyst estimates while offering a positive outlook on the rest of the financial year. For the three months ended June 30, the Canadian gold miner produced a total of 150,849 oz. across its operations, representing a 23% increase over last year and 4% higher than the previous quarter. This output excludes contributions from the Nicaragua operations and the Pan mine in Nevada that it acquired from Calibre during the quarter. The strong Q2 results, says Equinox CEO Darren Hall, are led by the Greenstone mine in Ontario, where mining rat…

The combination of Equinox Gold (TSX, NYSE-A: EQX) and Calibre Mining (TSX: CXB) should move the new company up to the fourth largest gold producer in Canada even as it looks to trim its portfolio of non-core assets. The C$2.56 billion ($1.83 billion) all-stock deal, set to close this month, will bring to nine the number of producing mines under Equinox from the current seven, as well as Calibre’s Valentine project in Newfoundland that’s currently under construction. Calibre operates one mine in Nevada, and its three sites in Nicaragua are counted as one under the company’s hub and spoke model. Equinox will have gold reserves of about 24 million ounces. “It make…

Equinox Gold’s (TSX, NYSE-A: EQX) Castle Mountain stage two expansion in California has joined the US FAST-41 program, setting a solid federal permitting timeline that could reduce the development time by years.

Overview: Tumbling equities and softer yields mark a risk-off session. The US dollar, though, is mostly higher. Among the G10 currencies, it took another round of verbal intervention and softer Treasury yields to help the yen resist the dollar's tug. About half of currencies are off 0.5% or more and most have extended their recent losses. Most emerging market currencies are lower, and the Mexican peso, which sometimes acts as a proxy for restricted currencies, especially in Latin America is off almost 0.75%, to lead the complex lower. All the large markets in the Asia Pacific region were sold today. The Nikkei lost 1.75%, while South Korea's Kospi's nearly 2.4% drop led …

Overview: A sell-off in equities is continuing while the foreign exchange market is quiet with the greenback confined mostly to narrow ranges. It is firmer against most currencies, though the dollar bloc is the most resilient today. The dollar reached a new nine-month high against the yen. Despite some escalating rhetoric from the MOF, the market is pushing the dollar higher amid concern about the new fiscal package the government is set to unveil shortly and heighten tensions with China. Emerging market currencies are under pressure, and the Turkish lira is at new record-lows. All the large equity markets have sold off today. The main indices Japan, South Korea, and Tai…

While Bitcoin struggles to break above its all-time high and altcoins face difficulty finding solid support, one corner of the crypto market continues to expand: stablecoins. Since the beginning of the bull run, the stablecoin market has shown consistent growth, cementing its reputation as one of crypto’s most reliable and scalable use cases. Unlike volatile assets, stablecoins offer stability, liquidity, and utility across DeFi, trading, and settlement. Top analyst Darkfost recently shared fresh data and highlighted a key development many have overlooked — the total supply of ERC-20 stablecoins is rising again. As of today, it has reached a new all-time high o…

Canadian miner Erdene Resource Development (TSX:ERD) has poured its first gold at the Bayan Khundii mine in southwestern Mongolia, marking a major milestone for the project less than a decade after discovery. Erdene President and CEO Peter Akerley said the deposit, first identified in 2015, has quickly become a cornerstone of the Khundii Minerals District. “With construction of a 242-kilometre power line, mining underway, the process plant commissioned and first gold doré poured in just 22 months, the team deserves tremendous credit,” he said. The mine is expected to rank among the highest-grade open-pit operations globally. It is projected to reach nameplate …

Canada’s Erdene Resource Development (TSX: ERD) is working to turn its new Bayan Khundii open-pit gold mine in Mongolia into the anchor of a future minerals district that will one day produce several metals, CEO Peter Akerley says. Erdene poured first gold at Bayan Khundii in September – about 10 years after the first exploration hole was drilled – and expects to achieve nameplate production by the end of the month. The operation has been designed to process 650,000 tonnes of ore and produce 85,000 oz. of gold per year. “We see Bayan Khundii as a foundation to build out a new multi-mine, multi-commodity district,” Aekerley told MINING.COM’s sister publication, The…

The crypto market in Turkey is facing turbulence as President Recep Tayyip Erdogan pushes for stricter regulations targeting digital assets. Reports from Bloomberg reveal that new legislation could empower Turkey’s Financial Crimes Investigation Board (MASAK) to freeze crypto accounts without court orders, sparking fears across the local crypto market. With Turkey ranking among the top 15 crypto-adopting nations, over $ 170 billion in trading volume was recorded in 2023 alone. Now, the government aims to curb illegal betting, fraud, and tax evasion, raising concerns about market freedom and investor confidence. Will these actions create stability or trigger FUD and a po…

US President Donald Trump’s son, Eric Trump, has flown to Japan to attend Metaplanet’s shareholder meeting, after being named adviser to the company in March 2025. “I believe in companies with great leadership. You have a wonderful leader in Simon Gerovich and a wonderful product in Bitcoin,” said Eric Trump. He took the stage in Tokyo on 1 September 2025 to support the Japanese bitcoin treasury company Metaplanet, “as the US president’s family expands its crypto ventures internationally,” confirmed Reuters. In March 2025, when welcoming Eric Trump as an adviser, Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich said, “His business expertise and passion for BTC will help drive our mission …

Bitcoin mining now has the Trump name attached through another Eric Trump crypto project. American Bitcoin, supported by Eric Trump and Donald Trump Jr., hit the Nasdaq on Wednesday through a merger with a small-cap miner, sidestepping the usual IPO route. The crypto stock debuted around $8, surged to $13, and pulled back to roughly $10 by midday. For a moment, its market value touched $7.5Bn, 99Bitcoins reported. But by Thursday midday, it was trading closer to $6.35. The crash has many asking, “Is this another Trump family rugpull?” Eric Trump, following the stock’s debut, said, “[Crypto] treasury companies are popping up all over the place for all sorts of coins…

Eric Trump laid out a bluntly bullish, supply-and-demand case for why Bitcoin can reach $1 million, arguing that accelerating institutional access collides with Bitcoin’s fixed 21 million-coin cap, during a “Bitcoin Takes Over the World” session with David Bailey at the Bitcoin Asia conference in Hong Kong on August 29. Bitcoin’s Path To $1 Million Is ‘No Question’ “Everybody wants Bitcoin. Everybody is buying Bitcoin. And that’s uh that’s an incredible thing. And that’s why I’ve always said that I really believe that in the next several years, Bitcoin will hit a million dollars. There’s no question Bitcoin hits a million dollars,” Trump told the audience, adding that “e…

According to interviews with Eric Trump and ABTC Executive Chairman Asher Genoot, American Bitcoin (ABTC) has structured its business around one clear aim: add more Bitcoin to its balance sheet. The firm says it spends less on big management teams and more on mining and buying Bitcoin so each share holds more Bitcoin over time. That metric — Bitcoin per share — is tracked in the same way public companies track earnings per share, the executives said. American Bitcoin Tracks Bitcoin Per Share ABTC’s leaders told investors they treat the number of Bitcoin each share represents as the core performance measure. Genoot said the firm began with a single question: “What do in…

Eric Trump returned to social media this week with a short, blunt message for crypto investors: “Buy the dips!” According to his post on X, the repeated slogan arrived as Bitcoin and Ethereum were under selling pressure, and it drew quick attention from traders and analysts alike. Trump’s Crypto Footprint Based on reports, Eric Trump’s comments come as the Trump family’s business moves into the crypto sector in a bigger way. He and his brother backed American Bitcoin, and their stake in that company swelled to about $1.5 billion after the firm’s recent market action. American Bitcoin’s public moves and partnerships have pushed the family further into mining and accum…

Ero Copper (TSX, NYSE: ERO) said its Tucumã copper operation in Brazil achieved commercial production this week – though at least one analyst was left wondering if the company would be able to hit full-year output targets. Tucumã produced about 6,400 tonnes of copper in the second quarter, including about 2,000 tonnes during the second half of June, Vancouver-based Ero said Thursday in a statement. Plant throughput volumes should keep increasing by year-end, supporting sequential growth in copper production during the second half, according to the company. Located in Pará State, in the northern part of the country, Tucumã is projected to produce 37,500 to 42,500 l…

Gold, silver and copper prices are surging as global investors lose faith in the US dollar, driving a rush into hard assets, according to TD Securities. Gold burst through the $4,000 an ounce level this week, silver hit an all-time high, and copper surged toward $11,000 a tonne as investors fled risk and piled into hard assets. Behind the frenzy, says Daniel Ghali, Senior Commodity Strategist at TD Securities, is a breakdown in confidence in the greenback as a reliable store of value. “This is what markets look like when the world’s reserve currency is at least partly losing its store-of-value function,” Ghali said in an interview this week. “The denominator…

Log in to today's North American session Market wrap for September 30 Today continue yesterday's geopolitical narratives with the US Government shutdown odds increasing (it seems that democrats wouldn't want to sign an extension) and Arab nations pushing for Hamas to accept the Gaza deal. About the first theme, a movement is happening with the Trump administration to remove a huge number of federal workers in an attempt to reduce costs and bureaucratic inefficiencies – There is a breach in the Government budget. The one issue is that it would be the people whose jobs are on the line that are required to prevent a shutdown. There are some intricacies to this theme but o…

XRP is staging a remarkable rebound, rising from early October lows of $1.77 to over $2.60, even as the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) prolongs its review of pending XRP ETF filings. The delays have sparked mixed market sentiment, yet XRP’s trading volume and technical setup indicate growing bullish momentum. Over the weekend, XRP surged to $2.68, breaking critical resistance at $2.63 on a 147% volume spike, one of the largest in recent months. This explosive move coincided with renewed optimism following Ripple’s strategic acquisitions, including the integration of Ripple Prime and GTreasury, which CEO Brad Garlinghouse said place XRP “at the center of …

A Dogecoin exchange-traded fund with the ticker DOJE is set to start trading in the US on September 11, 2025. According to reports, the fund is being launched by REX-Osprey and will provide US investors a regulated way to gain exposure to DOGE without holding the coin directly. Eric Balchunas, a senior ETF analyst at Bloomberg, told market watchers that the fund will hold an asset with “no utility on purpose,” and he publicly challenged supporters to point to clear real-world uses for Dogecoin beyond community interest and trading. Analyst Asks Supporters To Show Practical Uses According to Balchunas, DOJE will be the first US ETF that openly holds an asset whose backe…

This week saw record trading in US spot Bitcoin and Ether ETFs, driven largely by a sudden rush into Ether funds. According to ETF analyst Eric Balchunas, Ether ETFs alone posted roughly $17 billion in weekly volume, a figure that surprised many after months of quiet. The spike has pushed trading desks to rethink how fast money can flow into these funds. Ether ETFs Record Big Volume Reports have disclosed that spot Ether ETFs not only logged about $17 billion in weekly trading volume, but also saw a record single-day net inflow of $1 billion. Across the first two weeks of August, the funds pulled in more than $3 billion. According to Balchunas, it was almost as if the…
