GoldMining Inc. (TSX: GOLD | NYSE AMERICAN: GLDG) is a gold company focused on acquiring and advancing copper and gold projects in the Americas. The Company’s key assets include:
Its large 100% owned portfolio of gold-copper projects,
An 80% equity share in U.S. GoldMining Inc. (NASDAQ: USGO), it owns a copper-gold project in Alaska,
A 15% equity share in Gold Royalty Corp. (NYSE American: GROY), and,
A 19.3% equity share in NevGold Corp. (TSXV: NAU | OTCQX: NAUFF).

The market cap of GoldMining was US$175 million (as of April 24) (today it is lower at US$167 million).

This means the Company offers ‘excellent value’ and strong ‘leverage to the gold price’. If gold goes up, it could potentially do very well.

Closing remarks
GoldMining is extremely well-positioned to do well in 2023. The stock has a dividend income stream via a 15% ownership in Gold Royalty Corp. as well as potential exploration upside from its 80% ownership of U.S. GoldMining.
Then there is their large portfolio of 100% owned projects which have a combined total M&I Resource of 13.4 million ounces of gold, albeit generally at lower grades.
For investors wanting leverage to the gold price with low to moderate sovereign risk, then GoldMining is well worth a look. Generally speaking, companies with large low-grade gold portfolios offer a potential ‘call option’ on the price of gold.
One to follow in 2023.
