VRIC 2026 Vancouver

On the Ground With Mining Clients and Investors

ArcStone was on the ground in Vancouver for the Vancouver Resource Investment Conference (VRIC), one of the most important global gatherings for the junior and mid market mining sector. The conference brought together producing companies, developers, institutional investors, family offices, and sector specialists at a time when capital markets attention continues to rotate back toward metals and real assets.

Our CEO Michael Astone and Vice President Justin Reynolds were active throughout the week meeting with existing clients and new management teams across gold, silver, copper, and critical metals. Discussions focused on market conditions, upcoming catalysts, capital structure strategy, and positioning companies for institutional engagement in both Canada and the United States.

VRIC remains a core part of ArcStone’s mining calendar. Being on site allows our team to deepen relationships, sharpen issuer messaging, and translate market feedback directly into actionable capital markets strategy for our clients. As a firm built around corporate access and aftermarket support, these in person meetings are a critical extension of our ongoing advisory and distribution efforts.

ArcStone continues to actively engage with mining companies seeking capital, strategic advice, and broader investor exposure across North America.
