The bedrock of modern investing—the classic 60/40 stock-bond portfolio—may no longer be the safe haven investors once trusted. Since the pandemic began, stocks and bonds have increasingly moved in lockstep during market stress. This has eroded decades of conventional diversification and created a new playing field of risk for institutional and retail investors alike.

Core Viewpoint - Giga Metals Corp. is launching a fully funded spring field program to advance exploration in the Attic Zone of the Turnagain Project, which is promising for copper, platinum, and palladium mineralization [1][5]. Group 1: Spring Program Details - The spring program aims to build on the successful results from the previous year's magnetotelluric (MT) survey, which effectively mapped the ultramafic intrusion [2][4]. - An integrated MT-EM approach will be employed to systematically explore previously underexplored areas within the Attic Zone to significant depths [4]. - Fieldwork is expected to commence in June, with results anticipated later in the summer [5]. Group 2: Project Background - The Turnagain Project, located in northern British Columbia, contains one of the few significant undeveloped sulphide nickel and cobalt resources globally [6]. - The Attic Zone is adjacent to the known nickel resource and is also prospective for copper, platinum, and palladium mineralization [7]. Group 3: Technical Aspects - The expanded MT coverage will include three additional MT lines, bringing the total to five, which will help define the search volume for conductors within the ultramafic intrusion [9]. - A ground electromagnetic (EM) survey will also be conducted to detect conductive bodies within or at the margins of the intrusion, with technical parameters being finalized [9].
