The gold price is hitting all-time highs, but there is still scant interest in junior miners, noted JuniorMinerJunky's David Erfle.
On Wednesday Erfle recorded the inaugural show Digging Deep, hosted by Kitco correspondent Paul Harris at PDAC in Toronto.
PDAC is mining largest annual get together. Over 23,000 delegates attended last year's show.
Erfle noted the lack of love junior miners are attracting despite precious metals jumping higher.
"You could pretty much roll bowling balls down the aisle," said Erfle noting the lack of retail investors dropping by the company booths. "There wasn't that many people. I was walking around talking to companies at their booths [asking] them 'how many retail investors have come up to ask you about your company?' Many said one or two or none."
Erfle and Harris noted that Ecuador made a splash at PDAC, embracing mining investment and shoring up investor protections and mining regulations.
Erfle noted that Argentina has a new president, Javier Milei who assumed office in December. Milei is rolling out pro-business policies, which should favor mining.
"It's going to take it's going to take a lot of work," said Erfle. "A lot of things have to go right for him to turn that around within his term."
