Are These The Best Penny Stocks To Watch Among Mining Names Right Now?

Penny stocks and small-cap stocks, in general, tend to move up no matter what broader markets are doing. This doesn’t mean that all penny stocks are independent of bigger trends, however. Take the mining industry, for instance. Gold, silver, rare earths, and even energy metals all tend to be a target of interest among investors this year.

Whether it’s because they’re seen as safe havens or part of a growing ecosystem (relating to energy metals), the same ideas hold true. When these niches experience momentum so do the stocks within them.

We’ve seen this a lot when it came to gold and gold stocks earlier this year. Companies that had exposure to mining, refining, selling, and the like surged as gold prices rallied. Some of these companies hadn’t released news of their own in months. Additionally, some companies that simply had the word “Gold” in their name surged with the broader trend.

Mining Stocks To Watch

  1. Walcott Resources Ltd.
  2. Taseko Mines Limited
  3. New Gold Inc.
  4. PureGold Mining Inc.
  5. Synalloy Corporation

This is something that mining stocks, as a whole, have demonstrated this year. A mix of economic uncertainty in one discussion with talks of industry growth in another helped boost this sector as a whole. With another round of new, record COVID cases this week, traders are back to looking for mining stocks as safe havens.

Something to note if you’re new to mining is that when the industry itself experiences a surge, the smaller stocks tend to outperform larger ones. In light of this, mining penny stocks are some of the most sought after. Will any of these be on your list before November?

Mining Penny Stocks To Watch #1: Walcott Resources Ltd.

Walcott Resources Ltd. (OTC : WALRF Stock Report)(CSE : WAL) has just recently begun trading on the U.S. exchanges. For the most part, Canadian traders had gotten to see the first stages of this company as it first began trading on the CSE earlier this year. Fast-forward to recent and Walcott has reached several key milestones that could put it on the list of top mining stocks to watch right now. Why? Earlier this month Walcott closed the acquisition of 60% in 1256714 B.C. Ltd. The B.C. company owns a 100% interest (subject to a 2% NSR) in two prospective silver-zinc projects in Australia, being the Tyr Silver Project and the Century South Silver-Zinc Project.

In this case, the controlling interest in here gets Walcott direct access to a prime location in one of the most prolific silver production areas in the world. While Mexico has long-been known as a top silver producing country, the untapped potential could rest within 3 countries. According to data from Statista, Peru, Poland, and Australia are the top 3 countries holding the largest silver reserves in the world.

Walcott is taking Australia head-on with a specific focus on this primary silver asset in New South Whales. High-grade zinc-lead-tin mineralization has already been identified. Walcott plans to re-open two historic silver mines with conservative inferred resource estimates and many high-grade surface mineral occurrences up to 4,710 grams per ton of silver (g/t Ag).

To put this into perspective, Buenaventura’s Uchucchacua mine, located in Peru, is the highest-grade silver mine in the world. It holds reserve grades of 445 g/t Ag. Furthermore, looking locally, South 32’s Cannington Mine produces 6% of the world’s silver; it has a measured mineral resource of 56Mt @ 193 g/t Ag.

Taseko Mines Limited (NYSE : TGB Stock Report) (TSX : TKO) is another one of the mining stocks to watch right now. Not only has the penny stock been climbing higher for the last 7 months, recent financial results have helped boost TGB stock further.

This week the company reported its financial position and results for the third quarter. Among key financials, Taseko recorded $32 million of adjusted EBITDA for the quarter. Furthermore, its EPS came in at a loss of just $0.02 compared to last year’s Q3 EPS loss of $0.08.

“The price of copper continued its recovery in the third quarter, with the price increasing from an average of US$2.43 in the second quarter to just under $3.00 in the third quarter.

Sales for the quarter were 29 million pounds and we generated a healthy operating margin of nearly 40%.”

New Gold’s production was over 115 thousand gold equivalent ounces while remaining on target to deliver free cash flow generation starting next year. What’s more, is that the company’s Rainy River mine achieved record mine and mill productivity. It’s also worth mentioning that New Gold was able to redeem its outstanding 6.25% senior notes due in 2022 as well as transferring $90 million in letters of credit to related mine closure costs to surety bonds. This increased the company’s available funds under the credit facility.

“As we enter the final quarter of the year, we will continue to build on the progress made during the year as we position the Company for the future and deliver free cash flow generation beginning in 2021.”
