Revenue model

1. Mineral Resource Development and Production: American Pacific Mining is a pre-revenue exploration-stage company. Its primary value creation pathway is advancing the Madison Copper-Gold Project through drilling to a maiden mineral resource estimate (targeted 2027), then potentially to production. Revenue would ultimately derive from the sale of copper, gold, and potentially silver produced from its mining projects.
2. Strategic Asset Divestitures: The company generates near-term capital through the sale of non-core exploration assets to other mining companies. Completed transactions include the sale of the Palmer Copper-Zinc VMS Project to Vizsla Copper for $15M in equity plus up to $15M in milestones, and the sale of the Tuscarora District to ICG Silver & Gold for 11.5M shares plus up to $5M contingent upon commercial production.
3. Capital Markets Financing: The company raises equity capital through non-brokered private placements, LIFE (limited partnership flow-through) financings, and unit offerings on Canadian and US exchanges (CSE: USGD, OTCQX: USGDF). Proceeds fund exploration and general corporate purposes.

Core offering

American Pacific Mining is a junior mining exploration and development company that acquires, explores, and advances copper, gold, and silver mineral projects in the Western United States. The company funds exploration through capital markets financing and strategic divestitures of non-core assets, with the flagship 100%-owned Madison Copper-Gold Project in Montana currently being advanced through a 15,000-metre drilling program toward a maiden mineral resource estimate targeted for 2027.

Product overview

American Pacific Mining Corp. is a precious and base metals explorer and developer focused on opportunities in the Western United States. The company's flagship asset is the 100%-owned Madison Project, a past-producing copper-gold project in Montana. The company also holds two high-grade precious metals projects in Nevada: the Ziggurat Gold project in Nye County (Round Mountain Trend) and the Gooseberry Silver-Gold project. Following the sales of the Palmer Copper-Zinc VMS Project and Tuscarora District, the company retains equity stakes in those disposed assets and is redirecting its technical focus to the Madison Copper-Gold Project.

• O'Keefe Drilling and Nasco Industrial Services and Supply LLCcoreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 4 May 2026Drilling contracts secured with O'Keefe Drilling and Nasco Industrial Services and Supply LLC to execute the 15,000-metre combined RC and diamond core drilling program at the Madison Copper-Gold Project in Montana, beginning May 2026.
• Water & Environmental Technologies and Dengel SurveyingminorStrategic or Co-development Partner · 28 April 2026Partnership with Water & Environmental Technologies and Dengel Surveying for an underground LiDAR survey at the Madison Copper-Gold Project near Silver Star, Montana. The survey uses the Emesent HVM100 system to provide high-resolution 3D spatial data for geological modeling, targeting, and future drill planning at the historical Madison Mine.
• ICG Silver & Gold Ltd.coreStrategic or Co-development Partner · 25 March 2026American Pacific completed the sale of its 100%-owned Tuscarora District (Tuscarora and Danny Boy silver-gold projects) to ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. effective March 25, 2026 through a court-approved plan of arrangement.

Direct peers

• Vizsla Copper Corp. Canadian copper-focused junior explorer that acquired the Palmer Copper-Zinc VMS Project from American Pacific for $15M in equity in December 2025, becoming a 15.8%-held strategic stake of APM. Operates in the same Western US/Canadian exploration market with comparable copper-zinc targets.
• ICG Silver & Gold Ltd. Junior precious metals explorer that acquired American Pacific's Tuscarora District (silver-gold) in March 2026 for 11.5M shares plus contingent payments. Directly comparable as a CSE-listed Western US gold-silver explorer at a similar stage of development.
• Sanu Gold Corporation: West African gold-focused junior explorer that appears as a partner/related entity on American Pacific's website. Comparable as a CSE-listed junior gold explorer with similar capital markets profile and exploration-stage asset base.
• Western Copper and Gold Corporation: Canadian-listed copper-gold developer advancing the Casino project in Yukon, Canada — a large porphyry copper-gold-molybdenum deposit. Closely comparable in commodity focus (copper-gold porphyry systems) and as a Western North American exploration/development junior.
• Hercules Silver Corp. Junior explorer focused on silver-gold-copper in the Western US (Idaho). Comparable in stage (exploration), commodity mix (precious + base metals), and capital markets profile (small-cap, CSE-listed), with similar dependence on drill outcomes for re-rating.
• Trilogy Metals Inc. Alaskan-focused copper-zinc-gold explorer (Bornite, Upper Kobuk Mineral Projects) that overlaps with the now-divested Palmer Copper-Zinc VMS Project. Comparable as a base metals junior with VMS-style targets and similar geographic exposure to the Pacific Northwest.
• Imperial Metals Corporation: Canadian copper-gold producer (Mount Polley, Red Chris) with Western North American asset focus. Comparable as a mid-stage copper-gold operator with British Columbia roots, providing a transition benchmark from junior explorer to producer.

Emerging players

• NGEx Minerals Ltd. South American copper-gold explorer with the Los Helados and Filo del Sol projects in the Andes. Comparable as a copper-gold porphyry explorer at a more advanced stage, providing a benchmark for the upper end of the junior copper-gold value spectrum.

Broad incumbents

• Barrick Gold Corporation: Major gold producer whose Cortez Hills and Goldrush discoveries sit adjacent to American Pacific's Red Hill Gold Project in Nevada's Cortez Trend. Relevant as both a potential acquirer and a geological benchmark for the district's prospectivity.
• Kinross Gold Corporation: Major gold producer whose Round Mountain Mine sits ~20km from American Pacific's Ziggurat Gold Project in Nevada. Relevant as a potential acquirer and benchmark for Nevada Round Mountain Trend prospectivity.
