John-Mark Staude, CEO of Riverside Resources, shares an update from the 2025 Rule Symposium, outlining the company’s $11M CAD market cap, $4M in cash, and zero debt. Operating under the prospect generator model, Riverside partners with major firms like BHP to fund exploration while retaining royalties—reducing risk and preserving shareholder value.
With over 40 years in mining, Staude brings experience from BHP, Rio Tinto, and Tech. He highlights Riverside’s lean share structure, 10% insider ownership, and minimal dilution. A recent spinoff, Blue Jay Gold, delivered direct value to shareholders, while Riverside continues to add new projects in British Columbia and advance exploration at Union and Cecilia.
Riverside’s focus spans gold, silver, copper, and rare earths across Canada, the U.S., and Mexico. The company is actively drilling and expanding its portfolio in mining-friendly regions, including Sonora. With key assets, strong partners, and rare earth exposure, Riverside is positioned for growth in today’s evolving global market.
