Winston Score History

The full picture

SolGold is a mining exploration company focused on finding and developing large copper and gold deposits. Its main project is the Cascabel deposit in northern Ecuador, which is considered one of the largest undeveloped copper-gold porphyry deposits in the world. The company does not yet produce or sell any metal — it is still in the exploration and development stage.

SolGold makes no revenue today. Instead, it raises money by issuing shares and attracting investment from major mining companies, including BHP and Newcrest, which hold significant stakes in the business. The company operates primarily in Ecuador, with a small corporate presence in the UK and Australia. Its main competitive advantage is the sheer scale of the Cascabel resource, but the key risk is that bringing a mine of this size into production requires billions of dollars in capital, regulatory approvals, and years of construction — none of which are guaranteed.
