ESGold Corp. (CSE: ESAU) (OTCQB: ESAUF) is positioning 2026 as a landmark year, with CEO Gordon Robb outlining ambitious plans for the company’s flagship Montauban Gold-Silver Project in Quebec. During an appearance on The MiningNewsWire Podcast, Robb emphasized that the company has laid the groundwork needed to transition from development to operations.
Robb stated that “2026 is a very big year for us. We have secured all our equipment…We’re currently building out our facility at a very fast pace. We’re aiming to be in operations this year, coupled with our maiden resource estimate.” The processing facility spans 20,000 square feet and is being constructed following a C$7.2 million financing, which involved the sale of 10,683,000 units at C$0.68 per unit. This capital raise has enabled ESGold to acquire necessary machinery and expedite construction.
The Montauban project is a gold-silver property that has been the focus of ESGold’s exploration and development efforts. The company believes that achieving production in 2026 will be a critical milestone, potentially generating cash flow and validating the project’s economic viability. Robb’s comments signal a shift from preparatory activities to active mining, with the processing facility serving as the centerpiece of the operation.
Investors have been closely watching ESGold’s progress, as the company aims to deliver on its promises. The upcoming maiden resource estimate is expected to provide a clearer picture of the project’s mineral inventory, which could influence market sentiment.

As 2026 approaches, stakeholders will be watching for tangible results from the Montauban project.
