Markets are abuzz as President Trump’s recent declaration of “No Tariffs on Gold” sparks immediate investor interest across the gold sector. While majors may command headlines, the real momentum is building among junior-to-mid-tier Canadian miners dual-listed in the U.S., who stand to gain rapid exposure and capital inflows. Three companies in particular are drawing sharp focus: Power Metallic Inc. (OTCQB: PNPNF | TSX.V: PNPN), Element79 Gold Corp. (CSE: ELEM | OTCQB: ELMGF), and ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU | OTCQB: ESAUF).

Recent drill results have unveiled high-grade polymetallic systems spanning nickel, copper, gold, silver, and PGEs, positioning the company as a potential global contender. With hints from its CEO about a potential uplisting mention (https://x.com/PowerMetallic/status/1954958359226093571), the company has added a layer of market intrigue alongside its exploration success. Trump’s tariff-free gold stance further amplifies the potential upside for PNPN as investors seek leverage to rising commodity momentum.

In Peru, Element79’s Lucero Project in Arequipa, targeting a restart mid-2026. Leadership updates include James C. Tworek steps down as CEO remaining on the Board, Michael Smith appointed CEO, Kim Kirkland joining the Board as QP, and Warren Levy assuming the role of Chairman.
ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU | OTCQB: ESAUF) has carved out its niche as a junior exploration company advancing clean energy aligned gold projects. Its focus on sustainable extraction methods resonates with the new wave of ESG-driven investors, aligning macro policy tailwinds with capital inflows. Following recent CEO commentary and ongoing project development updates, ESAU is increasingly being viewed as a high-upside junior in gold space.
