In August 2025, after five years of preparation, Quimbaya Gold began its first drilling operations.
This is the story of how we got there.
Alexandre Boivin left the real estate industry in Montreal to search for gold in Colombia. Sebastian Wahl spent 15 years in South American mining. Together, they made a bet: The same geology that earned Aris Mining a value of $1.7 billion also extends to their property – literally right next door.
But first, they had to build a company. Secure the land. Raise the money. Assemble the team. And convince themselves that the bet would be worth it.
This is Episode 1 of STRIKING GOLD – a documentary series that follows Quimbaya Gold’s drilling program from the very beginning.
No staged dramas. No scripts. Just the true story of what it takes to find gold.
🎯 EPISODE 1: THE BET
Meet the people who risked everything for a geological theory.
Alexandre’s journey from real estate to gold exploration
Sebastian’s decision to put his reputation on the line for this project
Why drilling next to a $1.7 billion mine matters

What happens when preparation meets reality
📍 THE LOCATION: The Segovia district in Antioquia, Colombia – one of the richest gold districts on earth. Aris Mining extracts over 300,000 ounces of gold annually with some of the highest grades worldwide.
Quimbaya Gold owns concessions that border this production. The fundamental question: Does the geology end at the property lines?
🎬 WHAT HAPPENED NEXT: Drilling began in August 2025. The results… that’s what the rest of the series is about.
