TRUMP'S MINERAL MANDATE IGNITES GOLD RUSH: One NASDAQ Gold-Copper Play is Fully Permitted, Primed for Production, and Targeted by Top Billionaire Investors.
Something extraordinary is unfolding deep beneath the rugged soil of Wyoming and Nevada.
While most investors are chasing fleeting tech trends or speculative AI plays, the smart money—the legendary Eric Sprott, Terra Capital, and Phoenix Gold—are piling into something far more tangible: Gold and Copper.
And U.S. Gold Corp. (NASDAQ: USAU) could be sitting on one of the most explosive re-ratings in the market today!
Backed by the Trump administration's fast-tracking of domestic mineral production, USAU has what most miners can only dream of: a fully permitted, shovel-ready gold-copper project in America's mining heartland.
Why Copper Matters—and How USAU Could Capitalize
Copper is quickly becoming one of the most vital commodities of the 21st century.
As demand accelerates—driven by the global energy transition, infrastructure modernization, and growing electrification—analysts project copper usage will double by 2030 and surge even further by 2050. Yet, the U.S. faces a looming supply crunch, raising alarms about economic resilience and national security.
In response, President Trump recently signed an executive order recently imposing a 50% tariff on certain imported products made with copper—signaling a major push to boost domestic production of this critical metal. The move underscores copper's growing strategic importance, particularly as it powers everything from electric vehicles to data centers to defense technologies.
This is just one reason why U.S. Gold Corp. (NASDAQ: USAU) could stand out.
As tariffs tilt the playing field in favor of domestic producers, and policymakers increasingly prioritize supply chain security, U.S. Gold Corp. could emerge as a key player in America's critical mineral future. With a strategically located and permitted project ready to deliver copper and gold, USAU may be uniquely positioned to benefit from the copper supercycle now underway!
About U.S. Gold Corp.
U.S. Gold Corp. is a publicly traded, U.S.-focused gold and copper exploration and development company. 
Its fully permitted CK Gold Project is located in Southeast Wyoming and has a Preliminary Feasibility Study technical report, which was completed by Samuel Engineering Inc.
In addition, the Company has two exploration projects: Keystone Gold located on the Cortez Trend in Nevada about 11 miles south of Nevada Gold Mines' Cortez Hills Complex, and Challis Gold located in Idaho.
- USAU believes the CK Project, projected to produce gold and copper, promises a truly remarkable opportunity that helps meet the current U.S. administration's desire for homegrown domestic critical mineral production.
- Keystone holds the potential of being a world-class, tier 1 district-scale opportunity currently waiting for exploration capital or a partnership to unlock its full potential and take advantage of the attractive exploration opportunity it presents.
- At Challis the company has revived a prior plan of operations and has put a bond in place to allow exploration activities to commence. As with Keystone, Challis awaits exploration financing and capacity to pursue an exploration program either in-house or with a partner.
The CK Gold Project
This is no pipedream. The CK Gold project is expected to produce over 100,000 ounces of gold-equivalent per year, backed by 1.67 million AuEq ounces in proven and probable reserves. With NPVs projected as high as $952 million and IRRs exceeding 60%, this is the kind of project that turns modest market caps into billion-dollar titans. Add to that a soaring gold price over $3,500/oz, and USAU's economics look parabolic.
5 Reasons USAU Deserves Immediate Attention
- Trump's Executive Order on Critical Minerals is a game-changer, and USAU's gold and copper projects fall squarely within this federal priority.
- Fully Permitted Flagship Asset: CK Gold in Wyoming is production-ready—one of very few advanced-stage projects in North America.
- Dual Commodity Upside: With copper and gold both in roaring bull markets, USAU offers double the price tailwinds and double the market appeal.
- World-Class Leadership: CEO George Bee, a former Barrick Gold heavyweight, has a proven track record developing multi-million-ounce mines.
- Massive Upside Potential: From a $45 million to $140 million market cap in under 12 months. Price targets from analysts range up to $18.75.
The Numbers Don't Lie
A 187% stock increase in a year. Over 208 million lbs of copper. A 44 million AuEq oz reserve. A $10.2 million raise. And most importantly—a federally backed tailwind pushing critical minerals to the front of the policy agenda.
This is the perfect storm—and USAU is directly in its eye.
The Company's CEO George Bee was influential at Barrick Gold, one of the biggest mining companies in the world.

As the Trump Administration Continues to Fast Track Gold and Copper Projects, US Gold Corp. (NASDAQ: USAU) is Ready to Go and Fully Permitted!
The Opportunity
The Trump administration is focusing on accelerating the production of various minerals, including gold and copper, by streamlining permitting processes and prioritizing projects through the Federal Permitting Dashboard. 
President Trump signed an Executive Order, "Immediate Measures to Increase American Mineral Production," which defines "minerals" beyond the existing list of critical minerals to include copper, uranium, gold, and potash, with the potential for adding other materials as determined by the National Energy Dominance Council (NEDC). This expands support for these materials, which are crucial for national, economic, and energy security interests.
Identifying transparency projects under the Permitting Council's statutory program advances the President's directive to take immediate action to facilitate domestic production of America's vast mineral resources to create jobs, fuel prosperity, and significantly reduce our reliance on foreign nations.
The Trump administration has been actively involved in advancing various critical mineral projects as part of its broader initiative to bolster domestic critical mineral production and reduce reliance on foreign supply chains.
Since President Trump took office, the White House has added 25 projects and counting to the Federal Permitting Dashboard. This momentum is anticipated to continue.

How? With a 44 million AuEq Proven & Probable oz Reserve!
At today's prices, do the math just to see the TREMENDOUS potential that lies here!
Key Focus: The CK Gold Project
The CK Gold Project is an advanced-stage gold and copper exploration and development project that is located in the Silver Crown mining district of Wyoming, it's situated about 20 miles west of Cheyenne. The project's aim is to extract both gold and copper.
- Fully permitted as of November 2024.
- February 2025 prefeasibility study shows strong project economics at conservative metal prices ($2,100/oz gold, $4.10/lb copper). Gold is well over $3,000 an ounce currently!
- Located near Cheyenne, Wyoming, with access to skilled labor, contractors, and transportation infrastructure.
- Project strategy includes mitigating tariff exposure by prioritizing American-sourced materials and equipment.
- Receiving interest from debt providers and concentrate buyers; the Company is focused on minimizing shareholder dilution.
- This project is one of the few permitted and shovel-ready gold and copper endeavors in North America, allowing for a streamlined path to production!
The Company's permitted CK Gold Project shows compelling economic indicators!
(All dollar amounts in this news release are expressed in U.S. dollars, unless otherwise noted and gold equivalents (AuEq) are reported based on copper, and silver being expressed in terms of gold ounces using the following prices, gold $2,100/oz., copper $4.10/lb. and silver $27/oz.) |
Updates and improvements in the permitted project's PFS include strong economic performance with increased reserves and resources. Project highlights include:
- Average gold equivalent (AuEq) production of 1,112,000 AuEq ounces over the mine life, or 111,250 AuEq ounces per year, assuming a 10-year mine life. The first three years average 143,278 AuEq ounces annually. Over the life of the mine, the PFS estimates total production of approximately 679,548 ounces of gold, 208.3 million pounds of copper, and 2.04 million ounces of silver.
- Base case Net Present Value ("NPV") of $459 million (pre-tax), at a discount rate of 5%, and Internal Rate of Return ("IRR") of 36.0%, each based on price assumptions of $2,100 per ounce of gold, $4.10 per pound of copper and $27 per ounce of silver. The project payback improved by 15%, and the NPV improved by 42% over the prior PFS study. Reflecting potential higher price assumptions of $3,000 per ounce gold and $4.50 per pound copper, the NPV increases to $952 million (pre-tax) with a 60.8% IRR.
- All-in sustaining cost of $937 per AuEq ounce (life of mine average).
- Initial capital requirements of $277 million, which includes capital retention payments post-construction.
- Mineral Reserves of 1.672 million AuEq ounces, supporting an eight-year mine life and 10 years of processing. This includes 1.022 million ounces of gold, 259.7 million pounds of copper, and 3.008 million ounces of silver—a 16% increase over the AuEq ounces reflected in the prior PFS.
- Aggregate potential, not included in the study economics presented, could provide significant upside potential for an additional revenue stream should the beneficial use of aggregate produced from mine waste be recognized and commercialized.
- Advancing toward FS completion by the end of 2025, with key groundwork already completed to facilitate fast-tracking. No extensive additional fieldwork or major expenses are required for FS completion.
- Exploration potential exists to expand resources at depth and to the southeast of the main orebody, potentially extending mine life or increasing production.
The sensitivity table in the February 2025 prefeasibility study indicated that at $3,000 per ounce gold and $4.50 per pound copper, the CK Gold Project could represent an exceptional opportunity!
"While the rise in gold and copper prices has undoubtedly played a role in our growth, it is our updated CK prefeasibility study released on February 11th, 2025, along with securing a full permit to begin construction on the project that continues to bolster our valuation. Despite the ongoing challenges in the resource sector and low valuations in general that do not align with industry norms, we are heartened to see the market beginning to recognize U.S. Gold's potential. We are committed to maximizing this potential and delivering value to our shareholders." - CEO George Bee

Mr. Luke Norman, Chairman of the board of directors of U.S. Gold said, "We are gratified by the continued support from our long-standing investors along with the addition of some key resource sector investors who acknowledge the CK Gold Project opportunity. At a time when there are very few permitted projects in the pipeline ready to meet the growing demand for gold and copper production, we believe the importance of what the U.S. Gold team has accomplished is finally becoming recognized. Continued validation of our efforts, by way of investment from the caliber of investors such as Eric Sprott, Terra Capital, Phoenix Gold and all the other investors, should help to continue to increase our exposure internationally and domestically as we move this exciting project forward and continue to create value for our shareholders."
The Gold Bull Rally Offers Opportunity
As a hedge against volatility, gold exploration companies provide a way for investors to gain access to the gold market without investing directly in physical gold. The metal hit a record high in 2025 of over 3,500 an oz.!
A VanEck report highlighted that gold prices directly influence the performance of gold stocks, underscoring the correlation between the two:
"Gold stocks are supposed to outperform the metal when gold's price rises. Their leverage to gold justifies outperformance. For any given move in the price of gold, the operating cash flow generated by these companies increases (or decreases) by a much greater percentage. Take Alamos (8.06% of Fund net assets), for example. The company estimates that a 5% increase in the price of gold (about a+$100/oz move), would translate into an increase of almost 30% in their free cash flow in 2024. "
The VanEck report noted a recent disconnect between gold prices and gold stocks in the past two years, primarily due to central bank buying and other temporary factors.
"There is no question that the gold mining equities are undervalued. With fuel and energy costs remaining largely stagnant, the profit margins for the producers are skyrocketing. Alternatively, the producers are out looking for "replacement" ounces for their constantly dwindling mineral inventories. As such, money and investment traditionally pour into the developers and explorers. This cycle has barely begun. Capital inflows from generalists, and ultimately the long gold funds, have barely begun. The cycle will result in massive shifts in the mining equities' valuation metrics, bringing them closer to traditional norms in the industry-and like all good bull markets, well beyond." - USAU Chairman and Co-Founder, Luke Norman
As the price of gold rises, gold mining companies see increased margins as well as the ability to expand operations.
One company in a strong position to take advantage of this bull market is USAU!
The company is also discovering the next major GOLD OPPORTUNITY on the Cortez Trend in Nevada!
The Keystone Project
- An established gold mining jurisdiction
- Produced ~4.47 M oz of gold produced in 2021 - approx. 78% of U.S. gold production *USFunds.com
- 6th largest gold producing "country" in the world, if Nevada were a country
- Historically, Nevada has produced > 225M oz of gold, hosting numerous world-class deposits
- "Elephant country": >20M oz gold deposits
- Pro-mining environment, geopolitical stability, major infrastructure Keystone Project Location Keystone exhibits many similarities to Barrick's deposits to the north; similar host rock, stratigraphy, structure and Eocene intrusions
Priority Target Areas:
- Consolidated an entire district on the Cortez Trend, NV - 20 square miles, 100% controlled by U.S. Gold Corp.
- Never previously consolidated nor systematically explored by model -driven, modern -day exploration techniques
- The extent and intensity of the alteration and the thickness of permissive rock packages encountered, highlight the potential of this district-scale mineral system
- Systematic exploration has primed Keystone for discovery
- Recent hyperspectral survey undergoing ground investigation for potential additional targets
Cortez Complex Comparison to Keystone:
More Company Highlights
- One of the only permitted, shovel-ready gold/copper projects in North America that is yet to be developed. Producing companies are desperate to replace dwindling ounces from their production assets. Other companies are looking to increase their production profiles to garner a re-rating from the mining analysts. US Gold is in a unique situation due to this and the M&A interest it will generate as the mining sector gains momentum.
- Jurisdiction: The company's asset is in the safest mining jurisdiction on the planet-State of Wyoming land. Wyoming is a resource/mining friendly area, with no federal nexus. This was hugely important to the permitting process of the CK Gold project and its ongoing development.
- US senior exchange listing: USAU trading on the NASDAQ affords the company the ability to access retail investors throughout the US as well as institutional investors globally. With a very tight share structure, the company is very well positioned to make the most out of this burgeoning bull market.
- Copper: USAU's copper component offers diversification of the asset for those who aren't bullish on the gold-cycle.
- Other value metrics around the CK project that have not been valued into the company yet: New generation is going to be key as USAU unlocks these value markers.
The Copper Situation
Prefeasibility Study Highlights of Ck Gold also include a staggering copper amount:
- M+I includes: Gold - 1.110 million ounces and Copper - 280 million lbs!!!
Why is this a big deal? Because copper will be a big part of the clean revolution.
Besides clean energy technologies, several industries including construction, infrastructure, and defense use copper for its unique properties. The metal is critical in many fast-growing clean industries from the electric grid and electric vehicles to renewable technologies.
Copper is essential in electrical wiring and transportation and is playing an increasingly large role in alternative energy, as it is a crucial component in wind turbines, solar panels, and electric vehicles, which require four times as much copper as conventional gas vehicles!
Some of the world's largest mining companies and metal traders are warning that by 2025, a massive shortfall will emerge for copper, which is now the world's most critical metal due to its essential role in the green economy.
The deficit will be so large that The Financial Post stated that it could itself hold back global growth, stoke inflation by raising manufacturing costs and throw global climate goals off course.
The copper supply issue is scary. There may not be enough copper to go around for the millions of electric vehicles (EVs) expected to hit the roads, or to fuel wind turbines and solar power.
In fact, wind and solar energy use more copper than conventional forms of energy, such as coal, natural gas, and nuclear power plants. Conventional power plants require about one ton of copper to produced one megawatt of electricity, whereas wind and solar can require between three to five tons per megawatt!
To make matters worse, these numbers only reflect the amount of copper needed to build wind turbines or solar panels, and do not factor in the additional copper needed to transport the electricity generated from wind and solar facilities to the population centers that consume the electricity.
Exploration
- At CK there remains opportunity around the current mineral reserves and resources, and USAU knows that the current mineral resource is "drill limited". The company will do additional reconnaissance work around the current project area but will postpone proving up the additional mineral reserves and resource at depths below and to the southeast of the currently planned pit to maximize its investment dollars.
- Keystone holds the potential of being a world-class, tier 1 district-scale opportunity currently waiting for exploration capital or a partnership to unlock its full potential and take advantage of the attractive exploration opportunity it presents. Remote spectral sensing work revealed additional targets to the south of the Company's 20-square mile holding that have only had some initial surface grab samples taken that show near surface oxide mineralization. Keystone offers two opportunities, near surface oxide potential and deeper high-grade sulfide mineralization. The Company has an approved plan of operations for exploration on several sites, and we await the right opportunity to investigate some very promising exploration targets.
- At Challis USAU has revived a prior plan of operations and have put a bond in place to allow exploration activities to commence. As with Keystone, Challis awaits exploration financing and capacity to pursue an exploration program either in-house or with a partner. The company's laser focus is on CK for now, but a pivot back to realize the Company's significant exploration opportunities is not forgotten, merely waiting for the right time and opportunity.
