May 19, 2025, Montreal, Quebec, Canada – TheNewswire - Beauce Gold Fields (Champs D'Or en Beauce) (TSX Venture: "BGF"), referred to as "BGF" or the "Company," announces that by resolution adopted on May 19, 2026, its Board of Directors has authorized the application to the TSX Venture Exchange (the “Exchange”) for approval of the extension, until June 8, 2028, of the exercise date of an aggregate of 5,475,000 outstanding share purchase warrants issued under non-brokered private placements closed by the Corporation on June 8, 2023 and June 14, 2024, including the following series:    3,000,000 warrants expiring on June 8, 2026.

Gold Fields NYSE: GFI reported a “solid start” to 2026, with Chief Executive Officer Mike Fraser saying the miner remains on track to meet its full-year production and cost guidance despite operational disruptions at several mines and rising input-cost pressures.

The miner said higher oil prices could hurt its ability to meet cost expectations.

May 6, 2025 – TheNewswire - Montreal, Quebec, Canada - Beauce Gold Fields (Champs d'Or en Beauce) (TSX Venture: BGF) (“BGF” or the “Company”) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement to acquire a 100% interest in the France Phosphate Property (“France Property”), located in the Lac-Saint-Jean region of Québec. The France Property is immediately adjacent to the eastern boundary of the Company's CH-98 Phosphate Property. Together, the two properties form a continuous block of 102 claims, totaling 5,665 hectares, significantly strengthening BGF's land position within the Lac-Saint-Jean anorthosite complex, one of North America's premier phosphate districts.

After reaching an all-time high, the S&P 500 dipped as talks between the U.S. and Iran were put on hold. The market pullback and surge in oil prices illustrated the sharp volatility that can accompany major shifts in Iran conflict headlines. Stocks with strong return on equity have demonstrated the ability to generate profits efficiently and relatively predictable earnings, which can be a strength in uncertain times.

I am rating Gold Fields a Strong Buy rating as it transitions from a multi-year build story to robust cash generation, notably driven by Salares Norte. GFI delivered an 18% production increase in 2025 and $2.97Bn in adjusted FCF and has implemented a shareholder-friendly dividend policy targeting 35% of FCF. Salares Norte reached steady-state operations, producing 397 Koz in 2025 with $808Mn FCF, positioning GFI for a potential equity rerating.

April 9, 2026 – TheNewswire - Montreal, Quebec - Beauce Gold Fields (Champs d'Or en Beauce) (TSX Venture: BGF) , referred to as “BGF” or the “Company,” is pleased to announce that diamond drilling has commenced at the Grondin Zone, located within its Beauce Gold Project in Beauceville, Québec.

Precious metals are said to love unpredictability, so maybe gold and silver dropping 12% and 25%  despite the war in Iran is par for the course.

Gold mining stocks were reaching for new heights in Q1 2026, but their quest got derailed as uncertainty arose about the outlook. The war in the Middle East can cause all sorts of problems for gold and gold miners, something likely to continue in Q2 2026. While an oil crisis is a short-term headwind for gold and gold miners, the long-term impact could be more positive for both.

The Iran war fueled a gold selloff as investors sought liquidity amid surging energy prices and stagflation concerns. A stronger dollar, rising yields, and interest rate cut uncertainty also contributed to the gold correction. Gold's core underlying drivers remain strong amid burgeoning government debt, heightened geopolitical risk, and robust central bank demand.
