Cadillac has two main Canadian exploration projects located in regions that have been historically active. The Thierry property is located in north-western Ontario adjacent to the town of Pickle Lake which includes the past producing Thierry mine which was last operated by UMEX and shut down in 1982 due primarily to the decline in the price of copper. The Burnt Hill property is a 51% owned tungsten tin property located outside of Fredericton, New Brunswick. Exploration and Evaluation Assets Thierry Property Cadillac reported that the assay results of samples from the twenty six holes drilled (see press releases dated January 18, 2012, January 25, 2012 and February 2, 2012) enabled Cadillac to further update the initial K1-1 resource estimate. P&E Mining Consultants completed this mineral resource estimate which was based on a combination of historic drilling by previous project operators and the more recent drilling by Cadillac who reported that the updated inferred mineral resource at K1-1 had been estimated within an economically optimized Whittle pit shell consisting of 53,614,000 tonnes containing 0.38% Copper and 0.10% Nickel using an NSR cut off rate of $ 11/tonne (see press release dated February 14, 2012). The increase in this updated inferred resource over earlier reported inferred resource estimate was due to a number of factors including the results from the twenty-six holes drilled by Cadillac, an increase in the trailing average metal prices, lower projected operating costs at K1-1 which have been derived from a conceptual combination of operations at the K1-1 open pit deposit and the Thierry underground deposit and the inclusion of additional UMEX data not considered earlier. Cadillac subsequently completed a NI 43-101 compliant Technical Report and Resource Estimate which was filed on SEDAR (www.sedar.com) in March 2012. Mr. Brian H. Newton P.Geo, of Billiken Management Services Inc. is the qualified person pursuant to the requirement set out in National Instrument 43-101 has reviewed and approved the technical information above on behalf of the Company. The potential quantity and grade set out in the information above is conceptual in nature. In addition, there has been insufficient exploration to define a mineral resource and that it is uncertain if further exploration will result in the target being delineated as a mineral resource. Please see 43-101 report link above for all information regarding this property. Most recent update regarding Thierry: On December 9, 2019, the Company announced it signed an Earn-In Option Agreement with NFR. The agreement related to Cadillac's 100% interest in the Thierry Mine Project. The terms of the agreements are as follows: (i) Within 90 days (by March 9, 2020) NFR will pay a previously agreed upon $300,000 to Cadillac ($75,000 of which has been advanced) following financing of NFR (NFR Financing) to have the right to earn a 51% interest in the property; (ii) NFR will issue 10,000,000 NFR shares to Cadillac, subject to regulatory approvals, within 60 days following the NFR Financing; and (iii) NFR will issue to Cadillac a $1,250,000 not secured by a first charge against NFR's interest in the property. The note will then be retired proportionately to work expenditures on the property as follows: • 30% ($375,000) will be retired on the completion, within 12 months of the NFR Financing closing date, of the $1,250,000 work program appended to the agreement; • 40% ($500,000) will be retired on the delivery of a Feasibility Study by NFR to Cadillac within 24 months of the NFR Financing closing date; and • 30% ($375,000) will be retired on the earlier of acceptance of an Environmental Study or 36 months from the NFR Financing closing date. Should the above terms in any of (i), (ii) or (iii) above independently not be met, then the option shall be null and void. On completion of the 51% earn-in, NFR will have the option to earn a further 10% interest by spending a further $2,000,000 over 2 years. After a 61% interest is earned by NFR, a formal joint venture agreement will be drawn up between the Cadillac and NFR. Burnt Hill During the prior year Cadillac announced that it has amended and restated the option agreement with Noront regarding the acquisition of Noront’s remaining 49% interest in the Burnt Hill Tungsten project. Once all milestones and/or date sensitive payments are made, Noront will receive an aggregate of $1.8 million through a combination of cash and shares for their 49% interest over the course of 3.5 years (see press release dated September 27, 2017). Under the terms of the agreement Cadillac then made an initial payment of $ 50,000 in cash and issued 1,000,000 common shares of Cadillac valued at $ 50,000 to Noront. In April 2018 Cadillac made the second of the three payments provided for under the amended and restated option agreement paying $ 75,000 in cash and issuing 1,500,000 common shares of the Company to Noront valued at $ 45,000. The remaining payment for the 49% interest became payable on the earlier of completion of a pre-feasibility study on the project and March 26, 2019. The payment is currently in discussion with Noront regrading the remaining payment. No significant work of a material nature has, as yet, been subsequently carried out on the property. Cadillac is presently pursuing solutions which will permit the recommencement of activities at Burnt Hill. Kirkland Lake/Grenfell Gold Property The Kirkland Lake/Grenfell Gold Property was acquired by Cadillac as part of its acquisition of Richview Resources Inc. in 2010. The property is located west of the town of Kirkland Lake, Ontario, within four kilometres of the producing Macassa Mine. Richview had previously carried out limited work on the property which it did not pursue. During 2014 Cadillac entered into an earn-in option agreement with Anconia Resources Corp. whereby Cadillac granted an option to Anconia to acquire up to a 100% interest in the Kirkland Lake/Grenfell Gold Property. Under the terms of the agreement Anconia acquired a 60% interest in the property during fiscal year 2016 having completed agreed milestones. In April 2017 Anconia exercised its option to acquire 100% ownership interest in the property. Anconia issued 5,000,000 million common shares to Cadillac valued at $ 150,000 to acquire the remaining 40% of the property. Cadillac will retain a 2% net smelter return royalty on the property, of which Anconia is entitled to purchase 1% at any time up to 2 years after the commencement of commercial production, for $1,000,000.

Here is Northern Fox's financing done in late 2018, it specifically mentions raising money just for the Theirry project. So this deal has been in the works for at least 2 years, if not longer: https://static1.squarespace.com/sta...662675141/Northern+Fox+Greensheet+Q2+2018.pdf CONFIDENTIAL OFFERING MEMORANDUM March 26, 2018 INVESTMENT RATIONALE Initial Private Offering of Northern Fox Resources Inc. (“Fox”) C$4 million at C$0.15 per unit. By fully exploiting the resource at the Thierry copper deposit, we create significant returns for our investors. Copper has a strong underlying, future market. The world is facing a copper deficit. Copper is an important part of the growing global economy from infrastructure, renewable energy, and electric vehicles. In Asia, Brazil, and India, the fundamentals and demand for copper will continue to grow, and become stronger over the next five to 10 years. World-class deposit with resource scale. Thierry is a world-class copper deposit, with very lowcost of production and long-life assets. Both the underground and open-pit deposits are open on strike and depth, providing significant upside deposit potential. Attractive IPO valuation. Long-term investment-grade opportunity at an attractive investment level with significant upside compared to peers. Opportunities to invest in projects with this asset combination of size, economics, infrastructure, and location are rare. Low capital intensity and low-risk. As a past producer, with over C$140 million invested to date, the initial capex to recommission is low for Stage 1 production at C$104 million; a low-risk premium given Thierry’s location within Canada’s stable political and mining jurisdictions, coupled with production economics, whereby 100% of operating costs are Canadian dollars, hedged against US dollar copper price volatility. Management successfully founded and commercialized a producing copper mine. The management team has a proven history of creating shareholder value in the copper mining industry, having successfully commercialized the Aguas Teñidas copper mine, currently producing 4.6 million tonnes of copper a year.

Do you have a share price graph for this one? I have read some of your other posts with interest - you certainly do you research!
Thanks. Although a lot of these small caps are the most liquid, they do have legit operations and trade more frequently on the equivalent Canadian ticker symbols. So lots of research and I don't mind sharing. Here's the 10 year graph: https://www.stockwatch.com/Chart/Advanced?time=10&symbol=CADIF®ion=U
