It’s ugly everywhere for the miners, “and I’m looking for a recapitulation later this year,” says Brent Cook, Founder and Senior Advisor of Exploration Insights. He tells our Daniela Cambone that, “whatever happens to the majors mining market happens to the minors mining market as well.” Cook discusses the successful tactics he uses when identifying promising exploration projects, suggesting that miners today, “are not doing enough to find deposits organically, and it’s not all about geology.” Cook concludes by telling investors to, “wait for the perfect pitch, and hope is not a very good investment philosophy,” underscoring the importance of timing when investing in the miners.

Brent Cook is an independent exploration analyst with over 30 years of experience in both property economics and geology evaluations. Brent received a BSc in Geology from Utah State University in 1978.
