$NRED is still inside a descending channel, but pressure is building.
Lower highs are compressing - volatility is tightening.
This is how reversals form before expansion.
A break of structure + volume could flip the entire trend fast
$NRED / $NREDF is positioned inside one of the most important copper and critical minerals shifts happening in North America today.
+73.3% IN 2025. 2018 WAS THE TURNING POINT.
That is the copper story most investors are missing.
In 2017–2018, China’s National Sword policy restricted low-grade scrap and foreign waste imports.
After that, China needed more clean copper ore and concentrates from global mines.
By 2018–2020, China crossed the 60%+ level in global copper ore and concentrate imports.
Now look at Canada.
Canadian copper ores and concentrates exports to China hit C$3.47B in 2025.
Up +73.3% YoY.
China’s share of Canada’s copper ore and concentrate exports reached 55.4%.
That is raw Canadian copper feedstock moving into China’s processing machine.
Canada + the United States need to weaken China’s influence by building more mining, refining, smelting, processing and offtake at home.
That is why BC copper stories matter more.
NRED / NREDF fits into this shift through Wilmac Copper-Gold in British Columbia, 16,078 ha near Copper Mountain, with 2026 exploration work moving toward drilling
THE COPPER MARKET IS SENDING A CLEAR MESSAGE
$NRED copper market is tightening as AI demand, electrification, and supply constraints push prices higher. Manufacturers are already repricing inputs and shortening quotes.
NRED isn’t producing yet - it’s positioning for the next copper cycle with 39,726 acres, drill targets, and large geochem + data sets.
This is the macro setup you want before major discovery catalysts.
Medium-term target: C$10
$NRED is not just adding advisors, it is adding signal strength across multiple fronts. Kristi L. Noem brings national security and critical minerals policy depth at a time when resource strategy is becoming a geopolitical focus. Katie Zacharia adds communications firepower with direct media, political, and regulatory visibility across major US platforms.
This is a combination of policy credibility, media reach, and capital markets positioning being layered around NovaRed at an early stage.
For a junior exploration story, that kind of advisory stack changes perception. It shifts the narrative from purely geological upside to broader strategic relevance.
Market impact is not guaranteed, but the structure of influence being built here is clearly expanding the visibility profile of $NRED / $NREDF at a critical stage.
THIS IS ABSOLUTELY INSANE.
If you had invested $14,000 in SanDisk $SNDK last year, you would have over $1 MILLION today.
SNDK is now up 7,500% in the last 14 months.
Chile just reminded me why I do not want to sleep on early copper names like NovaRed Mining Inc CSE: $NRED/ OTC: $NREDF
When the world’s largest copper producer prints a 13.8% YoY production drop, I pay attention. Chile’s April copper output fell to 399,954 metric tons from 464,056 metric tons a year earlier. That is a decline of roughly 64,102 metric tons in one month versus last year’s level. And the explanation matters even more: low ore grades at major companies.
Low grade is not a cute little headline problem. It means more rock, more energy, more processing, more capex pressure, and harder output growth. Chile also showed broader weakness: manufacturing down 2.5%, food production down 7.7%, and metal products production down 15.4%. That tells me the copper supply chain is not exactly running like a Ferrari right now.
Meanwhile demand is going the other direction. Global copper demand is projected to move from 28M tons in 2025 to 42M tons by 2040, a +14M-ton increase and roughly +50% growth. The potential shortage by 2040 is around 10M tons/year.
That is why I keep watching $NRED. Wilmac gives NovaRed 16,078 hectares in British Columbia, roughly 10 km west of Copper Mountain, with copper-in-soil values up to 1,125 ppm Cu. Add MetalCore AI, Patent Application No. 19/680,101, and Ed Kostenski’s 43-year equipment / finance / execution background.
My read is simple: old giant mines are showing cracks, and the West needs new copper optionality. NovaRed Mining Inc is still early, still speculative, but that is exactly where the torque can live.
Target board: C$3.25 median/+65.82%, high estimate C$4.95/+152.55%.

DYOR. Risk is yours, but so is the upside.
$NRED didn’t add a paper advisor. They added someone who understands mining equipment, project finance, logistics, exports and real execution.

THE PRESIDENT NAMED HIM..
THE NUMBERS BACK IT UP..
NOW HE JOINS NovaRed Mining, he is a Legend !
Top facts to put on screen
1. President George W. Bush recognized Ed Kostenski at the White House on July 2, 2004, in the East Room. Bush called him out by name, said Ed started Nationwide Equipment “at my kitchen table,” and used him as a real American small-business success story. Bush also said Ed was adding 14 employees, planned to hire 6 more, and was investing $300,000 into expansion.
2. Founded Nationwide Equipment in 1983. EXIM described Nationwide as a Jacksonville-based company specializing in earthmoving, road-building, and mining equipment exports.
3. Global reach: 40+ countries by 2002, over 60 countries in later company materials. EXIM said Nationwide was selling to over 40 countries in 2002; the Nationwide catalog says the company serviced customers in over 60 countries.
4. Over $1 billion raised globally. Forbes reported that Kostenski’s group raised over $1 billion in private funding for construction projects and equipment.
5. Served on the U.S. Export-Import Bank advisory committee. In 2005, EXIM named Edward Kostenski, president, CEO, and founder of Nationwide Equipment, to its 10-member Sub-Saharan Africa Advisory Committee. EXIM also stated that the committee advised on strengthening U.S. exports to Africa.
6. EXIM scale: EXIM said it helped finance $17.8 billion of U.S. exports in fiscal year 2004. This is EXIM’s institutional scale, not Ed’s personal financing number — but it shows the level of export-finance world he was connected to.
7. Nigeria monorail project: $98,938,000. Nationwide Finance says it raised over $98 million in initial debt funding for Phase 1 of the Rivers State Monorail Project in Nigeria.
8. Monorail project scale: Phase 1 covered 14 kilometers, was programmed to transport over 10 million people annually, and had mapped total project costs in excess of $700 million.
9. EXIM-backed Nigeria heavy-equipment transaction: In 2002, EXIM supported Nationwide’s export of used trucks, cranes, and heavy construction equipment to Nigeria with a $1.2 million medium-term guarantee policy.
10. Presidential “E” Star Award — 2010. The U.S. Department of Commerce named Nationwide Equipment Company of Jacksonville, Florida, as a recipient of the 2010 President’s “E Star” Award. Commerce describes the Presidential “E” Awards as the highest U.S. government honor for increasing exports.
11. Presidential “E” Award recognition. Nationwide’s catalog lists the 2001 President’s “E” Award for Excellence in Exports; an EXIM release separately says Nationwide was awarded the U.S. President’s “E” Award for Exports in 1998. To stay clean, say: “Presidential ‘E’ Award export recognition.”
12. 2011 U.S. Department of Commerce Export Achievement Award. Listed in Nationwide’s awards page.
13. Two-time Florida Governor’s Award for Excellence in Exports — 2004 and 2010. Listed in Nationwide’s awards page.
14. 2004 International Trader of the Year Award. Listed in Nationwide’s awards page.
15. Now joining NovaRed Mining. NovaRed announced Kostenski’s appointment to its Advisory Board, stating that he brings experience across mining equipment, infrastructure, energy, logistics, and project finance. NovaRed’s Wilmac copper-gold project covers 16,078 hectares in British Columbia, about 10 km west of Hudbay’s Copper Mountain Mine.

Stop scrolling because I think many people still underestimate this story.
NovaRed Mining Inc CSE: $NRED/ OTC: $NREDF already identified 2 intrusive centers underground while expanding across a 16,078-hectare copper-gold footprint in BC’s Quesnel porphyry belt.
AI infrastructure growth keeps accelerating globally while future robotics, transformers and electrical grids still depend heavily on stable copper supply.
That’s why $NRED keeps standing out to me through its confirmed 1.670% Cu peak samples and expanding MetalCore AI-driven geological targeting systems.
I keep watching the US$3.80-4.30 equivalent range closely.
Not a signal - just where I see asymmetric reward.
