The ascent of an investment banker in the gold mining industry : Peter Voldness

The rise of a mining investment banker : Peter Voldness. Over the subsequent 20+ years, Culver and St-Michel continued to collaborate on numerous metals and mining projects, reviewing many dozens of opportunities and successfully launching eight projects. Of all these projects, they focused most closely on two projects – Samalayuca Cobre in Northern Chihuahua, a copper property which they acquired and is now the primary project of VVC Exploration Corporation (VVC:TSX.V) and Tres Oros. St-Michel first explored Tres Oros, a gold property southeast of Mazatlan, Mexico, in 2015.

Peter Voldness has structured and funded over 150 ventures and raised over $450 million dollars for start- up and development stage companies including life sciences, encompassing genotyping, gene editing, regenerative medicine, logistics for clinical trial support and medical devices. His background is corporate finance, capital formation, both private and public finance, acquisitions, both capital structure and balance sheet restructuring and operations. Mr. Voldness additionally has 30 years of complex trading market experience. He has consulted with and advised over 250 companies in his career, including the financing of two junior mining operations.

In an uncertain economy with growing political risk, Analog combines highly attractive investment attributes, years of experience in the finance sector, and a high growth technology product. The company’s portfolio currently includes two, near-production gold properties in Mexico – Tres Oros and San Fernando – and the technology platform Prospector, an AI-powered search engine designed for the mining sector.

Prospector offers a Service-as-a-Software (SaaS) platform that utilizes artificial intelligence (AI) to provide a user-friendly way to access and analyze information. Prospector draws information from public exchanges and recently announced a collaboration with the leading global mining finance exchange, TMX Datalinx, which operates the Toronto Stock Exchange and represents 48% of publicly traded mining projects globally.

Prospector Founder and CEO, Emily King, will shift to become Analog Gold’s Chief Innovation Officer while continuing to lead day-to-day operations of Prospector. “I am thrilled with the opportunity to work with Analog Gold,” said King. “This is a truly unique opportunity to combine revolutionary technology with more traditional, proven mining practices.”
