Gold has long been the cornerstone of wealth, stability, and value preservation — and in today’s uncertain economic environment, its role is more vital than ever. As global debt reaches historic highs and fiat currencies face devaluation pressures, investors are turning to gold as both a hedge against inflation and a store of real, tangible value. Central banks continue to buy record amounts of bullion, while demand from investors and institutions drives prices to new highs. Beyond its financial appeal, gold’s industrial and technological uses are expanding, from electronics and clean energy to aerospace and medical devices. With limited new discoveries and rising extraction costs, the supply side remains tight — setting the stage for a sustained bull market that rewards producers and developers alike.
A COMPANY WITH A RARE COMBINATION:
1
Controls 21 properties across 300,000 hectares (3,000 km^2) in the Yukon, representing roughly 40% of the entire White Gold District, epicentre of the historical Klondike Gold Rush and a tier 1 mining jurisdiction.
2
Flagship project hosts 3 million ounces of high-grade near-surface gold across multiple deposits with strong expansion led by seasoned team including legendary award-winning prospectors Shawn Ryan and Ex-Great Bear Dylan Langille.
3
Agnico Eagle Mines as a strategic partner, owning 19% of the Company and providing strategic, technical, and financial support.
4
Recently raised C$23 million and is advancing its Maiden Preliminary Economic Assessment for delivery in the first half of 2026, along with the Company’s largest ever drill program (25-30,000 metres) planned for the summer of 2026 with the goal of growing existing resources and making new discoveries.

A CEOSDAILY BREAKDOWN

Record gold prices and an experienced discovery team, White Gold is positioned as one of the Yukon’s next major gold exploration & development story.

White Gold controls a dominant land position in Canada’s Yukon, led by a seasoned team that includes legendary prospector Shawn Ryan, and backed by a major investment from Agnico Eaglea truly rare story that's just getting started. Here's what you should know:

Roughly 40% of the emerging White Gold District — anchored by its flagship White Gold Project, a near-surface, multi-deposit system now hosting 1.73 Moz Indicated at 1.53 g/t Au and 1.27 Moz Inferred at 1.22 g/t Au (post-2025 resource update).

The project comprises the Golden Saddle, Arc, Ryan’s Surprise and VG deposits, all within trucking distance of each other, with clear room for expansion along strike, at depth and along prospective untested satellite targets. Agnico Eagle Mines has been a long-standing strategic shareholder since 2016, recently reiterated at ~19% ownership, providing strategic, technical and financial support. A Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) is targeted for H1 2026 in addition to the largest drill program ever on the project planned for the summer of 2026.

What’s new (2025): Momentum is Building

In August 2025, the company announced a substantial increase in the resource base — a 44 % jump in Indicated ounces and a 13.4 % increase in Inferred ounces at the flagship project.

This was driven by modelling improvements and optimized pit designs that improve mineralization continuity within several zones of the deposits. The financing environment also confirms momentum: White Gold closed an upsized CAD 23 million brokered private placement in October, with strong insider and strategic investor (Agnico) participation. Meanwhile, exploration activities have been ramped up: diamond drilling across high-priority targets is underway, and a new thrust into evaluating critical-minerals targets (Copper, Molybdenum, Tungsten & others) within its land package has been announced.

A Dream Team of a Legendary Prospector with a Industry-Renown Geologist: Shawn Ryan and Dylan Langille

Shawn Ryan, A pioneering Yukon prospector whose innovative soil-geochemistry techniques have transformed early-stage exploration in this prolific, but under-explored district. Credited with multiple multi-million-ounce gold discoveries, he remains one of the most influential exploration minds in the industry.
  1. Origin of His Prospecting Career
    Shawn began his career in the Yukon in the late 1990s, initially focused on mushroom pickingbefore transitioning to soil sampling and prospecting—an unconventional path that ultimately led to industry-defining discoveries.
  2. Innovator of Modern Soil Sampling in the Yukon
    He is widely credited with modernizing soil geochemistry in the region, developing techniques that dramatically increased the effectiveness of early-stage exploration and are now considered best practice across the territory due to Yukon’s minimal outcrop (2%). 
  3. Played a Key Role in the “Second Yukon Gold Rush”
    His discoveries—especially Golden Saddle and Coffee—helped ignite a surge of exploration activity and major acquisitions, contributing significantly to the Yukon’s reputation as a globally attractive gold district.
  4. Founder of GroundTruth Exploration
    He co-founded GroundTruth Exploration, a technological leader in rapid, environmentally low-impact mineral exploration protocols, helping push the industry toward cleaner, more effective exploration methods.
  5. Recognized Voice in the Yukon Mining Community
    Shawn is frequently featured in documentaries, conferences, and media stories about modern exploration, innovation, and northern development. Notable past appearances include two features on the New York Times and recipient of the 2011 Bill Dennis Award. 

From Great Bear to White Gold: Dylan Langille has a Proven Track Record in Technical Advancement and Expansion of Multi-Million ounce Gold Deposits

Dylan Langille is a renown geologist with an exceptional track record supporting one of Canada’s most prominent exploration success stories through his involvement with the Great Bear Discovery Team during its rise to becoming one of the most celebrated gold discoveries of the decade, eventually acquired by Kinross Gold for C$1.8Billion in 2022.

His background working closely with high-growth exploration teams has given him a deep understanding of how value is created from early discovery through to major market recognition. Dylan now brings this experience to White Gold Corp, where he plays an important role in leading the company’s exploration efforts across its strategic land position in the Yukon, and the significance of its partnership with Agnico Eagle. Dylan’s exceptional depth and breadth in technical competencies will serve a key role in advancing the White Gold project and its district-scale land package. 

This combination of renowned technical team, growing ounces, renewed capital, and increased discovery focus marks a shift: White Gold is moving from early-stage exploration toward mid-stage development with defined deliverables ahead.

Asset Overview: The White Gold Project

Situated in west-central Yukon (Dawson Mining District), about 95 km south of Dawson City, the flagship project includes approximately 2,795 claims covering ~55,000 ha. White Gold more broadly controls some 300,000+ ha (over 3,000 km²) in the district across 21 properties. The key deposits include:
  • Golden Saddle & Arc – The core engine of the resource. Golden Saddle hosts a high-grade core (1.1 Moz Indicated at ~2.84 g/t at a 1.0 g/t cut-off) with recent modelling having further strengthened continuity and grade distribution.
  • Ryan’s Surprise & VG – Satellite deposits within the same trucking radius offering growth optionality and meaningfully short-lead-time expansion potential.
  • Jurisdiction – The Yukon is repeatedly ranked a top-tier mining jurisdiction, with strong government and First Nations support and increasing infrastructure investment (roads, power, permitting).

What this means is that White Gold’s assets combine favorable grade, scale, logistics, and jurisdictional strength — all factors that help de-risk the story relative to more remote or immature peers.

Strategy and 2025–2026 Workplan

White Gold’s strategy is clear and multi-pronged: Keep growing the resource base via step-outs and infill, testing new targets in close proximity, advance engineering toward a PEA in H1 2026, and systematically test the district-scale pipeline for new gold and critical mineral discoveries. With financing secured via the recent raise, the team has a runway to execute.

In addition, the recent identification of critical-minerals targets (which several include copper-molybdenum-tungsten targets) introduces valuable optionality — if successful, this could broaden the story beyond gold and into strategic-metals interest, which is highly sought after by global investors.

Keep reading to discover why insiders are deeply invested— including Agnico Eagle, which holds a major stake in White Gold—highlighting the company’s growing reputation as one of the most promising emerging gold players in the industry.

The Resource Power Grab: Why Gold Is Becoming one of North America’s Most Strategic Asset

As global competition intensifies, Canada and the USA are making a strong push to unlock their mining sectors and secure control over critical mineral supply chains.
Governments are moving toward greater national oversight—of strategic resources to reduce dependence on foreign nations for metals essential to defense, clean energy, and advanced technology.

Gold sits at the center of this shift. Beyond its role as a financial safe-haven, gold is a strategic asset that strengthens national reserves and stabilizes economies during geopolitical uncertainty. With rising pressure to secure domestic supply, both countries are accelerating permitting, investing in critical mineral infrastructure, and supporting new mining projects to ensure long-term resource independence.

The message is clear: control your resources, control your future. By expanding and modernizing the mining industry, Canada and the USA aim to build resilient economies, power new technologies, and maintain leadership in a resource-driven global landscape.

Agnico Eagle’s 19% Ownership Is a Significant Vote of Confidence.

A key strength is the strategic anchor. Agnico Eagle Mines holds ~19% of the company and has consistently reaffirmed its commitment.

Their participation lends credibility, technical depth and potential strategic opportunities . The recent raise of CAD 23 million in October was upsized, demonstrating strong market interest and reducing near-term dilution risk. The share structure (approx. 221 million shares outstanding as of the latest fact-sheet) shows the company is sufficiently funded for exploration and early-stage development activities at this stage.

Management & Partners: Discovery DNA, Capital-Markets Discipline and an Industry Leading Track Record.

The management team brings both technical and financing experience:
  • Shawn Ryan (Co-founder & Chief Technical Advisor, Director) is a Yukon-focused prospector credited with leading soil-geochemistry innovations, and involvement in multiple significant Yukon/Canada discoveries.
  • David D’Onofrio (CEO & Director) is a seasoned mining executive with years of capital-markets experience, adept at growth-stage resource companies and public-company financing.
  • Dylan Langille (VP Exploration) recently joined after helping build the discovery-story at Great Bear Resources; his role is to spearhead the resource-growth and discovery pipeline.

In addition, PowerOne Capital serves as a strategic partner (owning approx. 11%) also brings meaningful financial and strategic credibility to White Gold Corp. PowerOne is known for being highly selective, strategic, early-stage capital so their support reinforces that White Gold ranks among the top companies in its class. With a strong track record of backing winning teams and high-quality assets from inception to exit, PowerOne’s involvement further validates the company’s potential and path to value creation.

PowerOne was instrumental in the company’s early formation alongside Shawn Ryan, meaning they aren’t just investors—they’re long-term sponsors. Their continued participation shows deep alignment with management and confidence in the company’s future exploration success. PowerOne focuses on early-stage, small-cap resource stories, with a long history in mining, energy and related sectors and over 500 transactions worth $4B+ since 2003.

David D’Onofrio’s dual role as White Gold’s CEO and a principal at PowerOne further strengthens this alignment. It shows insiders with meaningful expertise and deal flow are personally invested in the outcome. In addition, David continues to purchase shares in the public market, demonstrating clear conviction in the value opportunity at White Gold. 

Just take a look at the most recent insider acquisitions by Agnico Eagle,David D’Onofrio and other insiders:
Together with Agnico Eagle’s major position, PowerOne’s involvement creates a powerful combination: technical validation from a top-tier producer and capital-markets strength from one of the most active mining financiers in Canada.
In short: the team and partners are aligned toward adding ounces, defining project economics and attracting capital — rather than just marketing “blue sky” — which elevates the credibility of their path forward.

Why Now? Gold-Market Tailwinds Look Durable

Gold recently broke through the US $4,000/oz mark amid macroeconomic uncertainty, central-bank demand, and a revival in Western ETF inflows.

According to data from the World Gold Council, demand by value is at or near record levels, and central banks continue to accumulate bullion at >1,000 t annually. Additionally, Q3 2025 saw the largest quarterly ETF inflow on record (~US$26 billion).

For a company like White Gold that controls a growing, open-pittable resource in a Tier-1 jurisdiction, these gold-market dynamics matter deeply. Higher gold prices support more robust project economics (higher margins, improved IRR) and lower the incentive price for development. In effect, the macro tailwinds provide a favourable backdrop for value creation.

Key Catalysts to Watch (next 6-12 months)

Drill results: Step-outs and infill at Golden Saddle/Arc, plus geophysical results on several of the newly identified critical mineral targets will be near term drivers of market sentiment.
  • PEA milestones: As White Gold works toward the H1 2026 target for the PEA, progress on metallurgy, mining/processing scenarios, and capex/opex modelling will bring the story from “resource” to “project”.
  • Extensive Upcoming Exploration Program:  The Company is fully funded and preparing for its largest ever exploration program designed to meaningfully increase the existing high grade resources, and make new Gold and Critical Mineral Discoveries across its District Scale Land Package.
  • District discoveries: Success on newly prioritised targets — especially in the critical-minerals domain — could add meaningful optionality and re-rate the company beyond pure gold story.
  • Strategic developments: The Company’s flagship asset is a prime candidate for M&A activity from potential major & Mid-tier producers as the team continues to technically de-risk the project whilst continuing to demonstrate the size and expansion potential.

Investment Risks

Every mining investment carries risks — and White Gold is no exception. Key risks include:
  • Commodity price: If gold weakens materially, project economics could suffer. Mitigation: the Yukon jurisdiction and the high-grade core help offset this as does the team’s growth mindset.
  • Permitting & infrastructure: Although Yukon is favourable, infrastructure rollout and permitting take time. The company appears to be advancing in this regard, which partially mitigates this risk.
  • Financing/dilution: Exploration and development require capital; recent funds raise helps but further raises may be necessary. The presence of Agnico as a cornerstone investor helps reduce dilution risk somewhat.

The Bottom Line: A Powerful and Rare Combination

White Gold offers a compelling blend of exploration growth and project development leverage. With a large, growing, open-pittable resource in a first-class jurisdiction, backed by a strategically aligned major, and operating when gold is riding a favourable macro wave — the stage is set.

The next 12 months will be busy: drill programmes, study milestones, and potential discovery updates could deliver meaningful value inflection. Investors seeking large upside with disciplined execution in the gold space should keep this name on their radar.
