What Quimbaya Gold does
Quimbaya Gold Inc. is a Canadian-incorporated, publicly listed junior mineral exploration company (CSE: QIM, OTCQB: QIMGF, FSE: K05) operating a district-scale land package of 66,693 hectares across three projects — Tahami (24,724 ha), Maitamac (33,223 ha), and Berrio (8,746 ha) — in Colombia's Antioquia department, the region historically responsible for over half of Colombia's gold production. The company's flagship Tahami Project directly borders Aris Mining's Segovia operations, which have produced gold for over 150 years, anchoring a 'next-door' exploration strategy targeting both high-grade gold-silver vein systems (confirmed at Tahami South with intercepts up to 2.57 g/t Au and 528 g/t Ag) and a newly identified 2.4 × 1.3 km Cu-Mo-Au porphyry corridor at Tahami Center. The technical methodology combines high-resolution Lidar surveys, drone-based and ground geophysics (IP, resistivity, magnetics, radiometrics), systematic geochemistry, channel sampling, and diamond drilling, executed under a five-year, 100,000-meter contract with Independence Drilling S.A., Colombia's largest drilling contractor.
Quimbaya is pre-revenue and does not generate commercial income; the company finances exploration exclusively through equity capital markets, having completed seven disclosed financings between August 2023 and November 2025 totaling over C$20 million, culminating in a C$14.4 million Stifel Canada underwritten bought deal in November 2025. A treasury of approximately C$12 million is reported to fully fund the planned 15,000 meters of 2026 drilling. The customer base, in the conventional sense, does not exist; instead, the company's 'customers' are institutional and retail capital providers purchasing equity. Distribution is conducted through public exchange listings (CSE, OTCQB, FSE), mining conferences (PDAC, Vancouver Resource Investor Conference, Swiss Mining Institute), the 'Striking Gold' video series, third-party financial media, and a market awareness engagement with Red Cloud Financial Services.
The company employs 11-50 staff with an exploration team of over 20 professionals as of August 2024, and is led by President & CEO Alexandre P. Boivin, Executive Chairman Juan Pablo Bayona (former head of Barings for Colombia and Peru), CFO Olivier Berthiaume, VP Exploration Ricardo Sierra (the company's NI 43-101 Qualified Person), and VP Business Development Sebastian Wahl. Technical governance was materially strengthened in 2026 with the appointment of Dr. Mark Cruise (30 years of international exploration experience and US$1B+ raised across his career) to the Board and Technical Committee, and Senior Technical Advisor Jean Depatie (45 years of mining industry experience).
