Westhaven Gold (TSXV: WHN) enters 2026 fresh off an $85-million investment from Dundee (TSX: DC.A) in December that gives the developer a 60% interest in the explorer’s British Columbia projects, Westhaven CEO Ken Armstrong says.

The total investment includes a Dundee pledge to fund at least $30 million towards expenditures at Shovelnose in southern B.C., which Armstrong said shows Dundee understands the project’s value.

“We were pretty clear that the project really needs in the neighbourhood of $15 million a year spent on it to properly advance on the development story,” Armstrong said. “That $30 million allows us to do this, and allows us to move into pre-feasibility, and then ultimately into feasibility.”

The company hopes that Dundee’s investment and Westhaven’s own $20 million budget for this year will help it complete substantial drilling and get Shovelnose into production before the current gold cycle ends.
