The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday, March 27, edition that Canaccord Genuity analyst Carey MacRury has reaffirmed his "speculative buy" recommendation for Montage Gold. The Globe's Darcy Keith writes in the Eye On Equities column that Mr. MacRury gave his share target a $5 boost to $16. Analysts on average target the shares at $14.55. The share target upgrade follows Canaccord in January raising its assumptions for future precious metals prices, as well as the pending acquisition of African Gold. Mr. MacRury says in a note: "As a reminder, the African Gold acquisition sets up the Didievi project in Cote d'Ivoire as next in Montage's development queue following the build of Kone. The Didievi project currently has 1Moz of resource (inferred) at a relatively high grade of 2.5 g/t, but with a 40,000m drill program underway that we expect will increase the resource. Montage is contemplating Didievi as a standalone project which, in our view, is likely to be 2-plus million ounces. African Gold management has noted they see multi-million ounce potential across the broader Didievi tenement. Recall, first production at Kone is now expected in late 2026, ahead of the original schedule of Q2/27."
