Augusta Gold (TSX: G) basically bought a call option in mid-2022 on rising gold prices:
They paid a premium of US$50 million for Reward back when gold was $1,725 per oz and the project was worth $0 knowing that AngloGold Ashanti (AU) would need to acquire the asset as gold begins to rise big.
At $2,600 per oz their US$50 million investment was already worth US$163.5 million.
Every $100 per oz that gold goes up Reward increases in value by another US$18.3 million.
Augusta Gold (TSX: G)'s adjacent Bullfrog has 3x more gold than Reward!
