Loyalist Exploration Deepens ‘Buy Timmins’ Push With Four Gold Assets and 2026 Growth Plan

PNG Copper Inc ( (TSE:PNGC) ) has shared an announcement.

In 2025, Loyalist Exploration transformed from a strategy-only explorer into a regionally focused player by acquiring four properties—Tully, DeSantis, Loveland and Gold Rush—across the Timmins mining camp, anchored by the advanced-stage Tully project with near-term gold production potential. Supported by about $1.4 million in capital raised, a market capitalization increase to roughly $16 million, and the addition of experienced directors, advisors and key executives, the company has strengthened its technical and governance bench as it positions itself for growth.

For 2026, Loyalist plans aggressive advancement of its Timmins portfolio, including exploration and resource expansion at Tully, initiating permitting and economic studies aimed at moving toward production, completing the DeSantis acquisition and review, and rolling out exploration programs at Loveland and Gold Rush. The company will also continue evaluating further acquisitions in the Timmins “golden ring” and raise its profile through industry events, underscoring its ambition to evolve into a growth-oriented gold exploration and development company in one of Canada’s most important mining districts.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:PNGC) stock is a Hold with a C$0.04 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on PNG Copper Inc stock, see the TSE:PNGC Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on TSE:PNGC Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:PNGC is a Neutral.

The score is held down primarily by very weak financial performance (no revenue, negative equity, and ongoing cash burn). Technicals are moderately positive with price above key moving averages and a positive MACD, while valuation support is limited by a negative P/E and no dividend. Corporate events provide a modest offset via recent financing and project/portfolio progress.
