INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITIES
INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITIES	NOTE 9 – INVESTMENT IN EQUITY SECURITIES In October 2025, the Company acquired 51.7 million, or approximately ten percent at that time, of the issued and outstanding shares of Larvotto Resources Limited (“Larvotto”) through twelve open-market cash purchases totaling $37,172,842 (measured in U.S. dollars). Larvotto is an Australian-based public company engaged in the exploration and development of critical minerals, particularly antimony and gold, whose shares are traded on the Australian Securities Exchange. Since the Company has less than a 20% ownership interest in Larvotto and does not exert significant influence through board representation, contractual governance rights, or other mechanisms that would allow participation in the financial or operational policy decisions of the business, the Company recorded this transaction as an investment in equity securities. The investment is measured at fair value each reporting period using readily available quoted market prices from the Australian Securities Exchange. As a result, the Company has classified the Larvotto investment as a Level 1 fair value measurement within the fair value hierarchy and all changes in its fair value are recorded as other income (expense), net, in the consolidated statements of operations. These changes in fair value may result from movements in Larvotto’s share price, changes in the Australian dollar (“AUD”) / U.S. dollar (“USD”) exchange rate, or a combination of both. The Company’s Larvotto investment is classified as a non-current asset in the consolidated balance sheets because it is considered a strategic investment that will be held long-term. At December 31, 2025, the fair value of the investment reflected in the consolidated balance sheet was $40,494,328 and unrealized gains of $3,321,486 were recorded as other income in the 2025 consolidated statement of operations.
