Our approach to facts, figures and comparisons

Every figure on this site has a stated origin: Lannister Mining or a named external source.

Lannister Mining wrote these rules so investors and exploration partners can tell at a glance which facts are company-reported, which are historical and which come from industry research. The rules below apply across every page, from the Basin Gulch property profile to the FAQ.

How does this site decide what to publish?

Lannister Mining publishes this site and writes its content. Company facts come from Lannister Mining's own information, historical results are labelled as historical, and every third-party statistic is quoted with its source and date. The site explains and compares; it does not rank companies.

Procedure

Six rules we follow

  1. Company facts come from Lannister Mining

    Property, drilling, team and plan details are taken from information Lannister Mining publishes. They are presented as the company figures, not as an independent audit.

  2. Historical results are labelled as historical

    Drill and trench results at Basin Gulch are historical. Every page that cites them says so and notes that confirmation drilling is planned.

  3. Company views are attributed

    Statements such as the market premium for compliant US ounces are presented as Lannister Mining views, in the company words where practical.

  4. Third-party statistics are quoted with their source

    Industry figures from PwC, Natural Resources Canada, Sprott, The Motley Fool and Farmonaut (citing USGS) are quoted as published, with dates and conditions, and linked to the source. None is presented as a Lannister Mining figure.

  5. Comparisons use the same criteria for every entry

    Tables compare company types, exploration stages and reporting standards using the same kinds of facts for each row. The site does not rank Lannister Mining against named companies.

  6. Dates are real

    Each page shows when it was last updated. Dates change only when content changes.

Limits

What this site does not do

This site does not give investment advice, does not publish a mineral resource estimate (none exists yet for Basin Gulch), and does not present itself as independent. It is published by Lannister Mining. For the company's formal disclosures, readers should consult its investor presentation and filings, linked from the investors and partners page.

Common questions

Short answers here. The full mineral exploration FAQ covers more.

Is Lannister Mining one of the best gold exploration companies?
This site does not rank Lannister Mining against other companies, because a fair ranking needs the same data for every company. It does publish the facts behind Basin Gulch: 1,107 hectares, 11 patented and 53 unpatented claims, more than 320 historical drill holes, and a planned maiden resource estimate.
Is there a mineral resource estimate for Basin Gulch?
Not yet. Lannister Mining plans a maiden mineral resource estimate that will use historical drilling together with new work programs. The company says the property has potential to host a significant maiden estimate after expansion and confirmation drilling of historical drill intercepts.
Why do companies redo drilling on historical results?
Confirmation drilling checks that historical results can be reproduced with modern methods and quality control. Disclosure standards such as NI 43-101 in Canada and S-K 1300 in the US rely on data a qualified person can verify. Lannister Mining plans confirmation drilling of historical intercepts ahead of its maiden estimate.
Why does Lannister Mining see value in a US resource?
Lannister Mining states there is a clear premium in the market for S-K 1300 and NI 43-101 compliant gold and silver ounces in the USA, and that US-based companies with 43-101 compliant resources trade at a significant premium to peers. This is the company view, not an independent valuation.
What are the risks of investing in mineral exploration companies?
Exploration companies carry high risk: drilling may not confirm historical results, a resource may be smaller than hoped, metal prices move, and projects need continuing financing. Sprott reports a 25.3% peak-to-trough drawdown in gold from March 2 through July 16, 2026. This site is information, not investment advice.
