Скачать или смотреть ‘It’s quite an astonishing piece’ — Aurania’s CEO Keith Barron, on a 46% Au historic gold specimen

Keith Barron, president & CEO, Aurania Resources, believes there was a source of gold in Roman-era France — then known as Gaul — that Julius Caesar used to finance his armies and eventual attack on Rome that led to him becoming Emperor.

Barron, a history buff, spoke to Kitco at the Rule Symposium Natural Resource Investing 2023 show held in Boca Raton, Florida.

Aurania (TSX-V: ARU) recently applied for an exploration license in the Brittany peninsula of northwestern France. The concession area has historically been the site of significant high-grade gold finds. A large gold sample from the same vicinity was displayed in the Natural History Museum in Paris. At one kilogram gold, it is considered the highest-grade gold sample in France.

Across the ocean at Aurania’s Lost Cities project in Ecuador, Barron said after six years and $80 million spent on exploration, the company is ready to work with a partner.

“You’re going to have to bring in a partner who has obviously the wherewithal financially, but also the expertise to find the things and then bring them into production, that's where we are, not just on the shale and the sandstone-hosted stuff but also porphyry copper.”
