An Echelon Wealth Partners report explained the rationale for elevating this firm's status.

Revival's Beartrack Project

A July 9 research note indicated that Echelon Wealth Partners selected Revival Gold Inc. (RVG:TSX.V) as a Top Pick based on expectations for its 2018 drill program that aims to expand the resources at Beartrack in Idaho. The company plans to drill 8,000 meters along the Panther Creek Fault, which primarily hosts Beartrack's mineralization and which is open along strike and at depth. Analyst Gabriel Gonzalez wrote, "We believe there is good potential for the company to add resources to the recently announced 1.98 million ounce (Indicated plus Inferred) resource estimate."

Gonzalez listed the positive attributes of this gold exploration and development company. For one, Revival has strong assets, including Beartrack, which produced more than 600,000 ounces between 1995 and 2001, and Arnett Creek.

Revival has good optionality to an increasing gold price at Beartrack. Along with the existing 1.98 million ounces of mineral resources in a pit there, it has 488,000, or 25% more, ounces, contained in a 0.4 gram/ton cutoff pit shell. "The base case resource uses a 45-degree pit wall, which we believe through optimization could bring additional resource blocks into the pit design, particularly near surface and along strike to the north and just below the south pit," explained Gonzalez.

Revival is led by an experienced team, including Hugh Agro as CEO and Steve Priesmeyer as vice president of exploration, and board of directors, including Diane Garrett, who sold Romarco Minerals for US$550 million, and Wayne Hubert, who sold Andean Resources for CA$3.5 billion.

With all of the above, in addition to Beartrack and Arnett Creek being in the stable jurisdiction of Idaho, Revival Gold is a potential takeout target. Gonzalez purported that senior gold producers "will soon have to replenish their project pipeline for higher-grade projects with strong production potential," and Revival could benefit.

Gonzalez pointed out that Revival experienced recent positive market traction after completing confirmatory drilling at Beartrack in January 2018 and subsequently releasing the NI 43-101 resource estimate for the project. Since then, the stock closed at CA$0.94 per share two times. "We believe the company's increasing market visibility and exploration catalysts will continue to bode well for the shares," Gonzalez said.

Those near-term catalysts include 2018 drill results from Beartrack in H2/18, metallurgical test results from Beartrack in Q4/18 and start of drilling at Arnett Creek once permits are received, expected in H2/18.

Echelon has a Speculative Buy rating and a CA$1.70 per share price target on Revival Gold, whose stock is currently trading at around CA$0.87 per share.
