    To own Perpetua Resources, you need to buy into a high risk, high capital intensity build out around the Stibnite Gold Project and its mix of gold, antimony, and now tungsten. The recent exploration update speaks to execution on the ground. Drilling has pushed past the original 10,000 meter plan, core facilities are upgraded, and assays are in motion. That supports the long term resource story but does not change the near term reality of zero revenue, ongoing losses, and a P/B of roughly 3.5x on a CA$3.6b market value.

The extended drilling and discovery of scheelite at Clark Tunnel may influence how investors see the critical minerals angle, especially with analysts currently expecting substantial upside to their price targets. It also adds to the work list for an unprofitable developer that has already diluted shareholders and may need more capital before Stibnite moves closer to production.
