Collective Mining (TSX:CNL) Drilling Update Puts Its Undervalued Narrative Back In Focus

Collective Mining (TSX:CNL) has put fresh drilling results from the Apollo deposit in Colombia on the table, outlining new high grade gold mineralization in the Ramp Zone’s previously undrilled western and northwestern areas.

That fresh drilling update lands after a choppy run for Collective Mining’s shares, with the CA$15.74 price coming after a 1-day share price return of 3.96% yet a decline of 17.94% for the year-to-date. The 3-year total shareholder return of 226.56% and 5-year total shareholder return of 426.42% show how strongly long term holders have been rewarded, despite a softer 30-day share price return of 13.66% and a recent pullback in momentum.
