Pull Up (GORO) While It’s Still Early… October 6, 2026 Dear Reader, The evidence for a structural shift in gold demand has been building for the better part of two years now… Central banks added to their reserves at an elevated pace throughout 2025. And in Q1 2026, that trend accelerated — sovereign purchases rose 35% quarter-over-quarter to 243 tonnes, according to Persistence Market Research. Gold itself has moved past $4,000 per ounce and held. According to Grand View Research, the global gold mining sector reached $260.86B in 2024 and is projected to reach $710.08B by 2033, representing a CAGR of 11.0%. The hard rock mining segment — where underground and open-pit producers operate — is expected to register a CAGR of 11.2% over the same period. Grand View Research further noted that a major growth driver is the scale of official gold reserves held by sovereign nations — when countries maintain large buffers, it guarantees lasting demand for newly mined output and strengthens the incentive for producers to keep expanding exploration and production. That's the environment Goldgroup Mining Inc. (NYSE American: GORO) is operating in right now. And it's why (GORO) is topping our watchlist this morning, Tuesday, October 6, 2026. 
Not because of any single data point… But because of the convergence of several material developments — a transformational merger, a record capital raise, a strategic M&A commitment, and high-grade drill results — all occurring within a compressed 90-day window. The question worth asking is whether the market has fully processed the sum of these parts. Here's what the evidence shows. The Combined Company
On July 17, 2026, Goldgroup Mining Inc. (NYSE American: GORO) closed its combination with Gold Resource Corporation, creating a multi-asset precious-metals producer with four 100%-owned assets across Mexico and the United States. The combined portfolio now includes two producing mines, a formerly producing project under evaluation for restart, and an advanced-stage development asset. The Don David Gold Mine in Oaxaca is the flagship. It operates two underground mines — Arista and Alta Gracia — feeding into the El Aguila processing facility, which runs a nominal 1,800-tonne-per-day flotation circuit and a 300-tonne-per-day agitated-leach circuit. 
Ore from both mines is treated through the flotation circuit, producing separate copper, lead, and zinc concentrates containing payable gold and silver. The Arista system hosts several polymetallic intermediate-sulphidation epithermal vein systems — including Arista, Three Sisters-Gloria, and Switchback — with the Arista and Switchback systems each demonstrating strike extents exceeding 1.5 kilometres and remaining open along strike and at depth. Alta Gracia, the second underground mine at Don David, restarted on February 20, 2026, and is characterized predominantly by silver-gold epithermal mineralization with relatively minor base-metal content — a different style from the polymetallic Arista system but an important second source of mine feed. The second producing asset is the Cerro Prieto heap-leach mine in Sonora, in continuous production since 2013 and providing a stable operating platform while the company advances exploration along the broader mineralized trend. On a combined basis, the company reported 27,425 gold-equivalent ounces sold in the first half of 2026, with an average realized figure of $4,669 per ounce for H1 at Cerro Prieto. The remaining two assets — the San Francisco Gold Project in Sonora and the Back Forty VMS project in Michigan — represent the next phase of the growth pipeline, diversifying the company by geography and deposit type. The company's stated vision is to scale to 250,000 ounces… CEO Javier Reyes, unanimously appointed by the board following the combination, brings more than 25 years in natural resources and finance, with a track record in recapitalizations, strategic transactions, and corporate turnarounds. Capital Structure and Strategic Deployment
The financing activity since the merger deserves careful attention. On September 25, Goldgroup Mining Inc. (NYSE American: GORO) closed a US$122M non-brokered private placement — the largest in the company's history. 
That raise was originally targeted at US$75M and was subsequently upsized to US$125M after demand exceeded the initial target by more than 60%. Units were issued at US$3.65, each consisting of one common share and one-half warrant exercisable at US$5.10 for 18 months. Following the close, the company's cash balance stood at approximately US$166M… Three days later, Goldgroup committed US$75M to participate in Luca Mining's private placement, tied to Luca's acquisition of the Cozamin copper-silver mine in Zacatecas. Cozamin is an underground operation with approximately 20 years of continuous production and established paste-backfill and filtered-tailings systems. If completed, Goldgroup would hold approximately 19.9% of Luca's outstanding shares, with two board seats and anti-dilution protections. Post-commitment, (GORO) expects to retain roughly US$91M in cash — preserving capacity for both organic growth and additional M&A. As CEO Reyes noted following the financing: "Our priority now is disciplined execution. We intend to deploy this capital to support production growth, project advancement and carefully selected external openings." The share register composition reinforces the directional signal… Eric Sprott acquired 994,300 units at US$3.65 per unit during the placement, bringing his total holdings to 12,154,046 shares and 4,460,213 warrants — representing approximately 7.2% of outstanding shares on a non-diluted basis. That level of concentrated participation from a recognized sector figure is a data point worth weighing. Drill Programs and Near-Term Potential Catalysts
Two material drill programs are active, and both are generating results. At San Francisco, a 26,000-meter diamond drilling program is underway at the formerly producing open-pit operation in Sonora, with approximately US$8.5M budgeted. 
Assay results from the first six holes have been reported… GGD-178 returned 16.8 meters grading 4.36 g/t gold, including 10.9 meters at 6.34 g/t. GGD-174 returned 23.4 meters at 1.71 g/t gold, including 6.4 meters at 4.84 g/t. GGD-179 intersected 51.0 meters at 0.58 g/t gold, including 3.9 meters at 2.53 g/t — a broader interval that helps define the system's geometry and scale. A technical study is expected in Q4 2026, and a potential restart could follow as early as Q1 2027, pending results and a development decision. The company has already developed a plan for potential refurbishment of the crushing circuit and ADR plant… At Don David, a 34,250-meter drilling program is advancing across the Arista and Alta Gracia systems, with up to six rigs operating concurrently. The district spans 55,119 hectares along approximately 55 km of the San José structural corridor, hosting multiple epithermal vein systems ranging from precious-metal-rich low-sulfidation to polymetallic intermediate-sulfidation types. Regional targets at Margaritas and El Rey remain largely untested, offering district-scale discovery potential beyond the current producing footprint. Cut-and-fill mining methods have been implemented in selected narrow-vein areas to reduce dilution and improve run-of-mine grades, and new underground equipment has been acquired to replace aging fleet and improve availability. Processing infrastructure at El Aguila has been receiving systematic upgrades: Knelson gravity concentrators for free gold and silver recovery, a third ball mill adding 200 tpd of capacity, upgraded classification screens, and a third tailings filter press projected for commissioning in early Q4 2026. This existing infrastructure is a material advantage for (GORO) — exploration success can potentially convert to production within an established operating environment rather than requiring a new greenfield build. 9 Reasons Why We Have (GORO) Pulled Up This Morning—Tuesday, October 6, 2026…
1. Record US$122M Non-Brokered Placement: The largest financing in company history, upsized more than 60% above its initial US$75M target on institutional demand — a concrete measure of external confidence in the company's direction. 2. Four 100%-Owned Assets: The combined portfolio includes two producing mines (Don David, Cerro Prieto), a formerly producing project under restart evaluation (San Francisco), and an advanced development asset (Back Forty) — diversified by geography, deposit type, and stage. 3. 27,425 Gold-Equivalent Ounces in H1 2026: Combined first-half production establishes a baseline output level for the merged entity, with a stated vision to scale to 250,000 ounces. 4. High-Grade San Francisco Drill Intercepts: GGD-178 returned 16.8m at 4.36 g/t Au including 10.9m at 6.34 g/t from the first six holes of a 26,000-meter program — with a technical study due Q4 2026 and a potential restart targeted for Q1 2027. 5. US$75M Strategic Luca Mining Commitment: The Cozamin acquisition commitment would give Goldgroup ~19.9% of Luca plus two board seats, adding exposure to a continuously producing copper-silver operation in Zacatecas with 20 years of operating history. 6. Eric Sprott's Concentrated Participation: 994,300 units acquired at US$3.65, bringing total holdings to 12.15M shares and 4.46M warrants — a meaningful endorsement from one of the sector's most recognized names. 7. 55,119-Hectare District with Untested Targets: The Don David district extends 55 km along the San José structural corridor, with multiple vein systems open along strike and at depth, and regional targets at Margaritas and El Rey still largely unexplored. 8. 34,250-Meter Don David Drill Program: A major resource definition and expansion campaign is underway with up to six rigs running concurrently, targeting the Arista, Switchback, Three Sisters-Gloria, and Alta Gracia systems. 9. Built-In Processing Infrastructure: The El Aguila facility — 1,800 tpd flotation plus 300 tpd agitated-leach — has been recently upgraded with gravity concentrators and additional milling capacity, allowing exploration discoveries to potentially reach production without a greenfield build. Pull Up (GORO) While It’s Still Early… 
The data points converge on a company that is producing, drilling, deploying capital, and building toward a materially larger scale — all within a gold macro environment that structurally favors producers with expanding resource bases… The near-term potential catalyst pipeline is also worth noting: additional San Francisco assay results expected over coming months, a technical study targeted for Q4 2026, a possible restart decision, and ongoing results from the 34,250-meter Don David campaign. Whether Goldgroup Mining Inc. (NYSE American: GORO) executes on the full scope of that vision will depend on continued operational performance, favorable drill results, and disciplined capital allocation. But the evidence available today — the record financing, the high-grade intercepts, the Sprott participation, the Luca commitment, and the sheer scale of the exploration footprint — presents a data set that warrants continued attention as the next several quarters unfold. We have (GORO) pulled up this morning. Take a look while it’s still early. Sincerely, Gary Silver
