  • KWG Resources Inc. Risk Rating: Speculative
    July 10, 2013 Equity Research Initiating Coverage KWG:TSX-V $0.055 (07/09/14) Recommendation: Speculative BUY Target Price: $0.20 KWG Resources Inc. Risk Rating: Speculative A New Technology for a New Chromite District: KWG Stock Chart The New King of the Ring? Highlights: We are initiating our coverage on KWG Resources with a $0.20 target price and Speculative BUY rating. KWG is an exploration company with interests in the highly-prospective Black Horse and Big Daddy chromite deposits in the McFaulds Lake area of the Ring of Fire ("ROF") district in northwestern Ontario. More importantly, KWG recently secured control of two provisional U.S. patent applications and underlying intellectual property for the production of chromium- iron alloys directly from chromite ores and concentrates (“the Chromium IP”), which we believe represents a potential breakthrough technology that could be the key to unlocking the ROF. The Chromium IP process uses natural gas as its energy source which compares favourably to existing ferrochrome technology that is more energy-intensive as it uses electricity as its energy source and operates at higher temperatures. We believe that KWG’s most important initiative should be advancing the commercialization of this new Chromium IP process. We believe that KWG should bring in an existing ferrochrome or integrated steel producer with a strong balance sheet as a strategic partner to more quickly advance the commercialization process. Secondly, the Company needs to rationalize its option to acquire an 80% interest in the Black Horse chromite deposit into a clear path to owning 100% in order to negotiate with potential strategic partners.

  • Annual Report for the Year Ended December 31, 2020
    ANNUAL REPORT FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2020 LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT Fellow shareholders, Despite dealing with the COVID-19 global pandemic for much of the year, Noront was able to advance many of its key files, support a transformational strategic investment and conduct an exciting season of exploration work while ensuring the health and safety of all our employees. The highlight of this past year was the addition of Wyloo Metals as our cornerstone investor. Wyloo, which is one of Australia’s largest investment funds, bought all the equity, debt and royalties that Resource Capital Funds formerly held in Noront. Wyloo’s goal is to make strategic, long-term investments in commodities that will empower a decarbonized future. Noront’s nickel, copper, zinc and chrome assets were a key driver of their substantial investment. We look forward to working with Wyloo to bring projects in the Ring of Fire to fruition and take our commodities to market. Alongside this financial progress, our work continued with the provincial government and local First Nations to advance development of a road network into the Ring of Fire. These community-led, all-season road projects achieved important milestones with the filing of provincial environmental assessment terms of reference and the issuance of federal impact statement guidelines. Upgrades also continued on an existing forestry road which will serve as the initial leg of the new road corridor. We believe that having First Nation communities with traditional land use as the proponents of regional infrastructure is a bold and forward-looking way to ensure their alignment and participation.
