Lifecycle Milestones
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal the underlying research identifies — whether a major already holds a JV, earn-in, or 5–19.9% strategic stake — isn't tracked yet and is absent from this score.

Insiders, Investors & Smart Money
Notable shareholders and insiders whose involvement is worth knowing about, plus what we're seeing from institutional/large-investor activity.
Teck Resources Limited, a real major diversified base-metals producer, holds 5% of Koryx per the company's own investor fact sheet (April 2026) -- a secondary source suggests the figure could be closer to 7%, but 5% is used as the company's own stated number. The stake traces to Deep-South Resources' 2014-2017 acquisition of the Haib deposit from Teck via share-and-cash consideration. Director Heye Edmund Daun has bought stock on the open market extremely consistently through the entire trailing year, joined by director Charles Edward Loots, with no offsetting selling on record.
