The junior mining sector has seen record capital inflows in capital, but one mining executive warns of the risk of intense, sudden interest in the space.
"The amount of money being raised and the consistent pattern of upsize in capital raises due to over commitment or the size of the deal having so much interest that people are fighting to get placed, that is pushing a wealth of risk capital back into the market that we haven't seen since 1996-1997, 2007-2007, 2010-2011, and now this is the fourth one," said Cal Everett, CEO of Liberty Gold.
Everett's concern is how this inflow of capital will impact the public markets.
