Canagold secures $2.8m to fund its Canadian gold project
A total of 9.7 million shares were issued under the private placement.
The company sold 4.65 million charity flow-through shares at C$0.43 each for gross proceeds of C$2m, and 5.1 million common shares at C$0.39, raising C$2m.
Private investment company Sun Valley Investments, along with related party Goldlogic, has acquired 2.3 million flow-through shares of Canagold and 2.5 million regular common shares.
A third investor purchased the remaining shares.
Prior to the private placement, Sun Valley Investments controlled approximately 48.16% of the issued and outstanding common shares on an undiluted basis. This latest acquisition has increased its holding to approximately 48.25%.
The funds raised from the issuance of flow-through shares by the company will be allocated to Canadian exploration expenses. These expenses are specifically related to the New Polaris project.
Proceeds from non-flow-through shares will be utilised for the company's working capital.
In July, Canagold's feasibility study for the New Polaris project revealed an after-tax net present value (NPV) of C$425m and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 30.9%, based on a gold price assumption of $2,500/oz.
Should the gold price reach $3,300/oz, the NPV would increase to C$793m, with the IRR climbing to 47.3%.
The study estimates the initial capital expenditure for the project at C$250m. It also forecasts that the life-of-mine after-tax free cash flow could reach C$649m at a gold price of $2,500, rising to C$1.1bn if the price were to increase to $3,300.
The New Polaris project is expected to yield 805,589oz of gold over its 8.3-year lifespan, with an average diluted grade of 9.94 grams per tonne from the high-grade underground mine.

Walmart stock falls after earnings miss forecasts as US sales, 2025 outlook rise
Walmart (WMT) stock fell more than 2% early Thursday after the company reported second quarter earnings shy of expectations while US sales growth topped forecasts with the big box retailer's low-price strategy drawing consumers as tariff-related uncertainty pushed them to more carefully scrutinize their household budgets. In the second quarter, total US same-store sales grew 4.6%. That's more than the 4.2% Wall Street predicted, per Bloomberg consensus estimates. Its wholesale subscription business, Sam's Club, saw the same metric grow 5.9%, the Street had forecast a 5.3% increase. The company now expects net sales in its fiscal 2026 to increase between 3.75%-4.75%, up from a prior range of 3%-4% growth that the company reiterated in the prior quarter. Walmart stock came under pressure after the results showed the company reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.68, below the $0.74 the Street had forecast. Revenue came in at $177.40 billion, better than the $176.05 billion Wall Street expected. Adjusted earnings per share are expected to come in between $0.58-$0.60 in the current quarter. "The top-line momentum we have in our business comes from how we're innovating and executing. Connecting with our customers and members through digital experiences is helping to drive our business, and the way we're deploying AI will make these experiences even better," CEO Doug McMillon said in the release. Walmart called out strength in its grocery and health & wellness categories driving its US sales growth. The company it saw share gains "across income brackets led by upper-income households" in its US stores. By category, the company saw grocery sales rise by mid-single digits in the US stores while health & wellness categories saw sales rise by a mid-teens percentage. Investors will look for further insights around tariffs on the call after the company said it would have to raise prices earlier this year. In the quarter, Walmart said "like for like" inflation was 1.1% in its US stores. Read more: 5 ways to tariff-proof your finances Walmart CEO Doug McMillon told analysts in May, "We aren't able to absorb all the pressure given the reality of narrow retail margins." He added that tariffs had already led to price increases in April and May. At the time, McMillon said the "reset of costs" would continue throughout the year, adding that for an imported item, "You pay the tariff at the time it comes through customs ... even if the tariff rate comes down later, the cost has been elevated." Robert Ohmes of Bank of America estimated Walmart imports roughly 15% of its US sales from China. Around 60% of the US sales are groceries, which are largely tariff-exempt if they're produced domestically or in Mexico and Canada. Brooke DiPalma is a senior reporter for Yahoo Finance.

Is The Hobby just for hustlers? And a Tiger Woods photo goes from $75 to $90K in one month
Morning, Collectors… or should we say Speculators instead? Flippers? Hustlers? Traders? A newsletter I quite like, Shiny Thing$ from Rally, posted a provocative piece this week stating that 'Every Hobby is About Money.' Rally brought to light something we've talked about a lot here at Mantel— how these days, people who collect to cherish and hold seem to be in the minority vs. people who buy collectibles to profit. But that isn't always a terrible thing. Sure, if you want to collect Jayden Daniels Kabooms, the market is very frothy. But those looking to make a quick buck tend to focus on the most hyped athletes and the most hyped sets, leaving plenty behind for collectors looking to fill up their Mantelpiece. One thing we disagreed with from the piece? The writer states, 'Even on the content side, the influencers who dominate 'The Hobby' aren't kids with binders; they're men in their 30s and 40s... A 12-year-old can watch, but the buying power is concentrated in the hands of adults who treat cards as inventory.' After walking the halls at card shows all summer, it's pretty clear to me… some of the biggest bankrolls and toughest negotiators in this hobby are just wrapping up their first days of middle school this week. The kids are active and they are to be feared! The Athletic: The Stars of MLB, the NFL and Beyond Who Drove Sports Card Sales to New Highs in July As we've written about in these pages, July delivered the biggest month yet for the 2025 card market, with $314M in sales tracked by CardLadder, 86% of that on eBay. The Athletic dug into the players who helped fuel those massive numbers, and some were a bit surprising. Nick Kurtz led all athletes in net sales gain (+$935K), ahead of Hulk Hogan and Caitlin Clark, while legends like Michael Jordan and Shohei Ohtani remain staples. The market's volatility was on full display, with names like Lamine Yamal and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander seeing sharp drops. Meanwhile, eBay's new 'Live Activities' feature hints at a future of real-time lock screen bidding, a potentially game-changing shift that could further fuel auction prices by keeping collectors locked in till the final second. cllct: Bought for $75, Type 1 Photo was Used for Tiger Woods' Rookie Card A $75 impulse buy is now a (nearly) six-figure photo. Golf collector Curtis Loop bought a print of Tiger Woods' iconic putt at the 2000 PGA Championship from photographer Robert Beck on Instagram, only to later discover it was the original Type 1 photo used for Woods' 2001 Upper Deck rookie card. PSA confirmed its authenticity, and bidding at Golden Age Auctions quickly surged past $90,000, making it the most expensive Tiger Woods Type 1 to date. As the market for rookie card Type 1s heats up, this photo joins elite company — alongside Mantle, Jackie, and Namath — proving the right image at the right time can become its own kind of trophy. Maybe I'm a softie, but I can't help but feel sort of sorry for the photographer, who saw the value of his former piece 1,000x in a few short weeks. Meanwhile… a major Type 1 of Tiger Woods is certainly rare, but do you know what apparently isn't? Rory McIlroy signed pin flags from August National… Bleacher Report: Ex-Heat Staffer Pleads Guilty to Stealing Game-Worn NBA Jerseys, Selling Items for $2M A quick update on a story we've been tracking: A former Miami Heat security officer, Marcos Thomas Perez, pleaded guilty to trafficking over 400 stolen jerseys and memorabilia across state lines. Perez, who previously served with the Miami Police Department and later worked for both the Heat and the NBA, exploited his access to the team's equipment room to pilfer game-used items intended for a future museum. Over three years, he sold more than 100 pieces, some below market value, for a total of $1.9M. Among them was a LeBron James Game 7 Finals jersey that ultimately sold for $3.7M at Sotheby's. Authorities recovered nearly 300 stolen items from Perez's home. Forbes: Michelle Akers And USWNT 85ers Launch Collection With The Realest The 1985 U.S. Women's National Soccer Team, long overlooked despite their foundational role, is finally receiving overdue recognition with the launch of The 85ers LLC, a player-owned company committed to preserving their legacy. In collaboration with collectibles platform TheRealest, founded by The Hobby Awards judge and friend of Mantel, DJ Skee, the team released their first-ever official memorabilia, including custom-designed jerseys and trading cards. Michelle Akers, one of the sport's pioneers, helped spearhead the initiative, which also includes a content series and podcast supported by Adidas. With few historical records from 1985, the project modernizes their story while giving fans tangible proof the 85ers not only existed, but mattered. WSJ: How Pop Mart Sold the 'Happy Vibe' of Owning a Labubu It wouldn't be Above the Mantel these days without dipping into the Labubu craze, would it? Pop Mart has tapped into a booming niche of 'affordable joy,' with its quirky Labubu dolls driving a 400% net profit surge and record-breaking sales in 2025. Founded by self-taught entrepreneur Wang Ning, the company capitalized on blind-box toy culture and emotionally resonant characters like Molly and Labubu, which now account for over a third of its revenue. The dolls' scarcity, mystery, and collectibility —combined with celebrity sightings and a rabid Gen Z fanbase — have fueled global demand. With blind boxes selling at a pace of 10 million a month, Pop Mart's rise reflects a collector economy driven by identity, gratification, and a need for 'happy vibes.' And look for the hype to only grow, as The New York Times reported this week on rumors circulating that mini Labubus are set to hit the market. 📈

Intel: BofA breaks down pros and cons of a potential U.S. government stake
-- Bank of America analysts said Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) stock is likely to remain 'range-bound until there is clarity around the company's manufacturing progress, especially 18A process yields and external customer engagement/validation.' The firm reiterated its Neutral rating and $25 price target on the stock. In a note Thursday, the bank highlighted the recent media reports that suggest the U.S. government may convert its prior funding into a 10% non-voting equity stake in Intel. BofA estimated the stake would be worth $11 billion, in line with the $10.9 billion in earlier support. Analysts wrote that the 'positive of such a move could be to promote INTC's U.S.-based manufacturing as a way for new and existing fabless customers to expand their made-in-the-U.S. presence.' Still, BofA warned of several drawbacks. A government stake could mean '10% dilution of existing common shareholders without any additional near-term benefits,' renewed pressure to restart construction projects like its Ohio fabs, and 'likely higher scrutiny of/pushback from customers in China that accounted for ~29% of INTC total sales in FY24.' The analysts were also cautious on other new investors. While Softbank's $2 billion strategic investment signals interest through its Stargate initiative, BofA said it is 'not a game-changer,' noting that Softbank (OTC:SFTBY) and its affiliates already engage with Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), AMD (NASDAQ:AMD), and Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO). Ultimately, BofA said Intel's outlook 'invariably comes down to its manufacturing competitiveness.' The key questions remain whether Intel's 18A process can deliver competitive yields, attract external customers, and provide a bridge to its next-generation 14A node.
