Not sure Dynamech - usually a company doesn't change its modus operandi too much at capital raise time. Some brokers seem to pump before a raise, some after a raise. Will NXM use the same outfit as last time? Who knows.

Nobody wants to talk about gold by the looks of it - so what may be the catalyst for a pump?

Look at the likes of WC8 and other recent entries into the lithium play. I see another recent LCT project by SLM in the far reaches of the Brazilian jungle getting love today. I suppose on that point you may see that the term "Ground Truthing" and "processing of regional datasets" could include any manner of pieces of information that are popular in the era of lithium hype. Rock chips? Photos of outcropping pegmatite?

Will we be kicking off diamond drilling in the Au/Cu project too?

The short answer is that I have no idea - I am surprised NXM has received so much hate but I intend to remain solvent longer than the market can remain irrational.
