Core Insights - Mortgage rates have seen fluctuations, with the average 30-year fixed-rate mortgage decreasing by five basis points to 6.06%, marking it as the lowest rate of 2025 [1] Current Mortgage Rates - The current national average for a 30-year fixed mortgage is 6.06% [15] - Other mortgage rates include: - 20-year fixed: 6.06% - 15-year fixed: 5.53% - 5/1 ARM: 6.16% - 7/1 ARM: 6.02% - 30-year VA: 5.55% - 15-year VA: 5.28% - 5/1 VA: 5.09% [5] Refinance Rates - The average refinance rate for a 30-year fixed mortgage is 6.20% [15] - Refinance rates are generally higher than purchase rates [3] Economic Context - Economists do not anticipate significant drops in mortgage rates before the end of 2025, despite recent cuts by the Federal Reserve [13][16] - The Federal Reserve has implemented rate cuts in 2025, with a potential for another cut before the year ends [14] Long-term Projections - Mortgage rates may ease slightly in 2026, but any decreases are expected to be modest, influenced by economic conditions and inflation [17]

Core Insights - Money market accounts (MMAs) offer higher interest rates compared to traditional savings accounts, along with liquidity and flexibility, making them suitable for long-term savings that may be accessed for purchases or bills [1] - The national average interest rate for MMAs is currently 0.59%, but top accounts can offer rates above 4% APY, similar to high-yield savings accounts [3][13] - Historical fluctuations in MMA rates are largely influenced by changes in the Federal Reserve's target interest rate, with significant drops following the 2008 financial crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic [4][5][6] Interest Rate Trends - Following the 2008 financial crisis, MMA rates fell to between 0.10% and 0.50% due to the Fed's near-zero federal funds rate [5] - In 2022, the Fed began aggressive interest rate hikes to combat inflation, resulting in historically high MMA rates, with many accounts offering 4.00% or higher by late 2023 [7] - As of late 2024, MMA rates remain elevated but have started to decline following recent Fed rate cuts [8] Choosing a Money Market Account - When selecting an MMA, factors beyond interest rates should be considered, such as minimum balance requirements, fees, and withdrawal limits, which can affect overall value [9][10] - Some MMAs may require a high minimum balance (up to $5,000) to earn the highest rates, while others may charge monthly maintenance fees [10] - It is crucial to ensure that the chosen account is insured by the FDIC or NCUA, which protects deposits up to $250,000 per institution [11] Earnings Potential - The earnings from a $10,000 deposit in an MMA depend on the APY; for example, at a 4% APY with monthly compounding, the total balance after one year would be $10,407.44 [14]

Mud Lake was first tested through the Company's 2024 mapping campaign. Structural controls and surface expression at Mud Lake showed potential for similar mineralization to the Big Master and Elora Gold Systems in the Gold Rock target area. The mapping program from 2025 followed the mineralized trend further north where a sizable shear zone intersects favourable host rocks (Figure 1).
