Let's explore several standout options from the results in the screener.

Aya Gold & Silver

Simply Wall St Growth Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: Aya Gold & Silver Inc. is a company focused on the exploration, evaluation, and development of precious metals projects in Morocco, with a market capitalization of approximately CA$2.01 billion.

Operations: The company's revenue is primarily derived from the exploration, evaluation, and development of precious metals in Morocco.

Insider Ownership: 10.2%

Earnings Growth Forecast: 51.6% p.a.

Aya Gold & Silver has demonstrated robust forecasted growth with earnings expected to increase by 51.64% annually, significantly outpacing the Canadian market average. However, recent performance has been less promising, evidenced by a net loss and reduced sales in Q1 2024 compared to the previous year. Despite this setback, Aya shows potential in its exploration activities, notably at its Boumadine project in Morocco where recent high-grade drill results could bolster future prospects. Yet investor caution is advised due to recent shareholder dilution and declining profit margins year-over-year.

Ivanhoe Mines

Simply Wall St Growth Rating: ★★★★★☆

Overview: Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. is a company focused on the mining, development, and exploration of minerals and precious metals primarily in Africa, with a market capitalization of approximately CA$26.77 billion.

Operations: The company primarily generates revenue from the mining, development, and exploration of minerals and precious metals in Africa.

Insider Ownership: 13.1%

Earnings Growth Forecast: 38% p.a.

Ivanhoe Mines is actively pursuing mergers and acquisitions, positioning itself as a potential acquirer rather than a target, which could enhance shareholder value through expanded copper production in the Western Forelands. Despite a recent net loss of US$65.55 million in Q1 2024, Ivanhoe's revenue is expected to grow by 48.1% annually, outstripping the Canadian market forecast of 7%. However, shareholders have experienced dilution over the past year, and insider buying has not been substantial recently.

Operations: The company primarily engages in the development of gold properties.

Insider Ownership: 31.8%

Artemis Gold, amidst construction at the Blackwater Mine, remains on track with its schedule and budget, expecting a first gold pour in late 2024. The company reported a higher net loss of CA$6.65 million in Q1 2024, yet insiders haven't sold substantial shares recently. Despite current minimal revenue generation and less than one year of cash runway, Artemis is anticipated to become profitable within three years and is trading at 72.3% below its estimated fair value.
