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.

Blended value cutoff, not a simple g/t figure -- based on US$1,700/oz gold, US$20/oz silver, US$3.50/lb copper, US$100/tonne magnetite concentrate. Company renamed from Mexican Gold Mining Corp to Platauro Metals Corp in July 2026; still the company's current stated basis as of an Aug 2026 release. Note: an earlier, superseded 2019 estimate used a different cutoff (1.5 g AuEq/t) -- do not use that one, this 2021 Kirkham Geosystems US$80 NSR figure is current.
