Doubleview Gold<\/a> (TSX-V:DBG) has approached Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney and British Columbia Premier David Eby seeking government support to accelerate its Hat Project in northwestern British Columbia, Canada<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The company has submitted a Strategic Policy Brief outlining potential domestic infrastructure funding, streamlined provincial permitting, and integration with cross-border defence supply chains. Doubleview<\/a> has not disclosed any government response or funding commitment.<\/p>\n

The approach follows a US$400 million ($566 million) conditional loan commitment from the US Department of War<\/a>\u2019s Office of Strategic Capital to Sunrise Energy Metals<\/a> (ASX:SRL).<\/p>\n

The proposed financing would support the development of Sunrise\u2019s Syerston Scandium Project in New South Wales and establish a mine-to-metal supply chain aligned with US interests.<\/p>\n

Scandium<\/a> is used in heat-resistant aluminium alloys for aerospace, defence, and other specialised applications.<\/p>\n

Doubleview CEO Farshad Shirvani says the funding signals growing government interest in securing allied scandium supplies.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe unprecedented mobilisation of hundreds of millions of dollars by the US government for allied scandium development signals that the critical mineral race has entered an entirely new, high-velocity operational phase,\u201d Shirvani says.<\/p>\n

The Hat copper<\/a>\u2013gold<\/a>-cobalt-scandium project hosts measured and indicated resources of 609 million tonnes (Mt) @ 0.43% copper equivalent (CuEq), containing 5.82 billion pounds of copper, 3.22 million ounces of gold, and 80.1 million pounds of cobalt.<\/p>\n

A further 503Mt @ 0.41% CuEq sits in the inferred category.<\/p>\n

Doubleview reports measured and indicated scandium oxide content of 2,415 tonnes, alongside 1,996 tonnes inferred. These figures apply to 12.5% of mineralised material expected to pass through a dedicated scandium circuit and assume 72% metallurgical recovery.<\/p>\n

A March preliminary economic assessment returned an after-tax net present value of C$6.73\u20137.27 billion ($6.83\u20137.38 billion) and an internal rate of return of 19\u201323%, depending on the pricing scenario used.<\/p>\n

Doubleview is continuing metallurgical optimisation and preparations for a Prefeasibility Study<\/a>.<\/p>\n
