Right. So, Perpetua Resources. Another one of these companies promising to unlock the earth’s treasures. Honestly, it’s always a bit… much. Apparently, Margaret McKinsey Lyon, a Senior Vice President (a title which, let’s be real, mostly means a lot of meetings), sold off a chunk of shares. A fairly substantial chunk, actually. $1.21 million worth. One always wonders what the story really is, doesn’t one? They say it’s to cover tax obligations. Of course it is.
The Numbers (Because Numbers Are Everything)
Here’s the breakdown, for those who like that sort of thing. I’m more of a ‘feeling’ person, but one must appear to be informed.
- Shares sold: 43,722
- Value: Roughly $1.21 million. “Roughly” being the operative word. These things are never exact.
- Remaining shares: 145,746 (still a considerable number, let’s be honest).
- Total value of remaining shares: Around $4 million. Though, given the volatility of these things, that could change by lunchtime.
Apparently, this represents 23.08% of her direct holdings. A significant portion. One begins to suspect a lack of… enthusiasm. Or perhaps a very good accountant.
The Company (And Its Grand Ambitions)
Perpetua Resources. They’re all about mineral exploration. Gold, silver, antimony… the usual suspects. They want to dig things up and, presumably, make a profit. It’s a bold plan. A very, very bold plan. And one that invariably involves a lot of paperwork.
Here’s a little snapshot, for those who enjoy data points:
- Price per share: $36.86 (as of Feb. 28, 2026. Subject to change, naturally).
- Market capitalization: $4.59 billion. Sounds impressive, doesn’t it?
- Net Loss (TTM): $44.29M. Oh.
- One-year price change: 332.12%. That’s… something.

What Does It All Mean? (The Million-Dollar Question)
They’re digging for antimony. Antimony! It’s used in batteries and semiconductors. Apparently. Honestly, I thought it was something you put on your eyes. It’s all very… technical. The Pentagon invested $4.5 billion into critical minerals. Which, naturally, is excellent news for Perpetua. They’re restoring a mine in Idaho. A “restoration project.” It sounds so… wholesome.
The stock soared 125% in 2025. And is up nearly 50% in 2026. Which is… concerning. Is it a bubble? It feels like a bubble. They’re anticipating good Q4 earnings. Everyone always anticipates good earnings. It’s the law of corporate optimism.
I’ve made a list of things I’m more confident in than the long-term prospects of mineral exploration: 1. The reliability of my coffee machine. 2. The inevitability of Mondays. 3. The enduring appeal of a really good cardigan.
So, there you have it. Perpetua Resources. Another company, another share sale, another reason to question everything. I think I need a biscuit.
