Cartier Resources: A $1 Billion Gold Project Ready for Its Next Chapter

Cartier Resources CEO Philippe Cloutier joins Trevor Hall at the New Orleans Investment Conference to discuss the company's next steps following its updated preliminary economic assessment for the Cadillac Gold Project in Quebec. With an after-tax NPV of C$1 billion, a 26.5% IRR, and a minimum 16-year mine life producing approximately 100,000 ounces of gold annually, Cartier is evaluating a strategic transition from exploration to mine development. Cloutier explains the potential advantages of toll milling with nearby producers, the possibility of advancing directly to a feasibility study, and why management may prioritize moving Cadillac toward production rather than continuing its extensive drill program. The conversation also covers upcoming strategic decisions that could shape Cartier's direction in 2027 and beyond.
