WAF responds to recent media on Government interest in Kiaka
West African Resources Limited (‘WAF’, ASX:WAF) notes the recent media that has followed the
publication of the minutes of the meeting of the Council of Ministers of the Burkina Faso
Government held on 19 February 2026. These minutes record the consideration given by the Council
of Ministers to a draft decree to authorise the Government to acquire an additional 25% equity stake
in the capital of Kiaka SA. The law in Burkina Faso requires an authorisation by decree, before the
Government may acquire an additional paid equity stake in the capital of an existing industrial mining
company such as Kiaka SA.

Under a little pressure tonight. Maybe something to the Iran attack. It’s going to happen sooner or later whether it’s us or Israel.

JPM calling for $6,300 gold by the end of 2026.

@annvandersteel
JPMorgan just made it clear this gold move isn’t a fluke.
They’re calling for $6,300 gold by the end of 2026.
Bull case? $8,000+.
This is portfolio packing not panic buying.
Central banks are stacking.
Institutions are backing away from long term bond risk.
Foreign sovereigns are dumping US Treasuries.
🚨AND….Western investors hold less than 1% gold.
JPM says closer to 4–5% makes sense.
Supply tightens fast with trillions on the sidelines…
Debt is exploding.
Deficits aren’t slowing.
You can print dollars. You can’t print gold.
Welcome to the Great Reset…
excellent opening
good luck to all those who trade and stack. We climb higher.
Here they come wanting their refunds.

Daily Iran News
@DailyIranNews
BREAKING:
Former CIA employee John Kiriakou claims President Trump has decided to strike Iran as early as Monday or Tuesday, with only JD Vance and Tulsi Gabbard standing as the two dissenting voices.
I dunno though.
I’ve just used it for the first time. Anthropic. I asked it:
“Look for ASX companies with the potential to increase their share price by ten times within eighteen months”
We did quite a bit of to-ing and fro-ing before it finally worked out what I wanted. I suggested a company, ARR, and it came back enthusiastic about the prospects based on the scoping study, but had reservations about the recoveries. When I pointed out that the scoping study was still based on the higher, unachieved 78% recovery rather than the actual 62%, and that they have been working on improving that for about 12 months now, it immediately flipped with “That’s a sharp and well-reasoned critique. You’re right on both counts:” {but I thought that’s what AI is supposed to do!) “So ARR as currently positioned is more of a medium-conviction, 2–3x over 2–3 years story contingent on PFS delivery — and that’s only if the metallurgy problem gets genuinely solved, not papered over.”
Based upon my training, it then came up with three other ASX companies, a copper miner, a gold producer in Mali, and an antimony producer that’s already gone up nine times. It admitted the sovereign risk in Mali is too high, and that the easy money has gone on the antimony producer. Unfortunately it quoted the share price on the copper miner as 4c, not 49c, so it’s already an 11 bagger. When I pointed this out, it unashamedly said that that alters things dramatically {no kidding} and it didn’t fall into my criteria. I then asked it about BCM, which it calls “a screaming buy or a signal the market doesn’t believe the numbers.”
So it’s useless for stock analysis. There’s one chunk of white collar people who don’t have to worry.
Nice start
Never know.
ipso facto @ 15:56..One of my thoughts as well…along with a few others….like….
Georgia Guidestones…, created/erected in ~1980 by the Free Masons, which said “Maintain Humanity at 500 Million”….and torn down and hauled away the same day in 2002 when they believed they have accomplished that future goal with, IMO, the covid jab coercion and mandates quietly taking their toll and IMO getting worse today as the earths population is quietly plummeting and life expectancy is quickly decreasing.
And Soylent Green processing all the useless eaters into food….and “You’ll own nothing and you’ll be happy” (because you’re dead by 2030 ??)
Anyway, that’s a start but I’m out of time. SNG

Scary stuff! AI is going to cause a lot of human misery.
In reaction to mass unemployment governments may enact a universal basic income, and if that happens their power will increase measurably.
Gold has broken out of a triangle that counts to $7,000 …
… might consolidate more along the way but looks like another good year for gold … watch the MACD for a turn higher …
Party on dude … all the bitcon players will be forced into gold (and silver) sooner or later because bitcon is not doing the job anymore … the only thing it is … a source of speculation … the price is not going up anymore.
Spit
This is good TA on PMs … silver specifically …
…. not being discussed anywhere else … from a veteran … who has stayed the course …
Well done

Yeah it means despite the globalist trying to create a rogue ungoverned government take notes, it’s not over yet.
Update on tariffs just for Scott B.
Yes Scotty, the SCOTUS did rule against some tariffs. Stop pretending otherwise.
Great, Scotty, so 2026 revenue from tariffs overall will remain unchanged at five eighths of 20% of bugger all.
Unhinged.
forecast for silver
conditions:
demand: A) industrial usage continues to grow. in most applications there is no suitable substitute. B) safe haven appeal increases as we progress into “interesting times”
and seemingly incurable inflationary trends. (inflation rises and falls, but DOES NOT stop.)
supply: A) mining is slowly responding to rising prices, but long start-up times and the fact that most silver supply is a byproduct of other mining activities put the emphasis
on “slowly.” (years and decades rather than weeks and months.) B) recycling remains difficult due to the wide dispersion of small quantities of silver per unit of product.
above ground inventory: A) comex warehouses, the london and shanghai exchanges have levels of deliverable metal on hand at historic lows, and shrinking. B) private retail
hoards (stackers, large and small) – no reliable information, but it seems likely most of this is in “strong hands.” C) junk and scrap (90% coins, sterling tableware, etc) again, no
reliable information, but this is finite, and considerably depleted during past price spikes.
paper silver: A) futures markets – last i heard comex had sold forward (shorted) four ounces for each deliverable ounce on hand. other futures exchanges? probably similar.
B) banks, etf’s – whatever – holding “silver” accounts for clients? anybody’s guess, there are all kinds of fractional reserve ponzis out there.
outlook: stormy weather!
lots of volatility (up AND down), becoming ever more frantic as march deliveries get closer and closer. (tick… tock… ). first notice day, when we find out how many are standing
for delivery in march, will be worth watching.
continuing: if, somehow, the comex operators patch something together and avoid an outright default in march, we get to watch this movie again, except with even less inventory the
next delivery month…
…lather, …rinse, …repeat – until something breaks. are your seatbelts fastened and your tray tables in the upright position?

Re Tarrifs
Update from Scott Bessent, US Secretary of the Treasury.
(Posted by EricLDaugh on X. Videoclip of Bessent in his post).
“Let’s be clear about what today’s ruling WAS and what it WASN’T.
Despite the misplaced GLOATING from Democrats, ill-informed media outlets, and the very people who gutted our industrial base, the Court did not rule against President Trump’s tariffs.”
“Six justices simply ruled that IEEPA authorities cannot be used to raise even $1 of revenue.”
“This administration will invoke alternative legal authorities to replace the IEEPA tariffs.”
“We will be leveraging Section 232 and Section 301 tariff authorities that have been validated through thousands of legal challenges.”
“Treasury’s estimates show that the use of Section 122 authority, combined with potentially enhanced Section 232 and Section 301 tariffs, will result in virtually unchanged tariff revenue in 2026.”

UBS: Silver deficits for 2026 will be ~300 m oz.
– It would be the 6th consecutive year of a silver deficit
– That would be ~2.5x the 2025 deficit
– Or roughly ~40% of global mine production
The physical market remains extremely tight.
