Panthera Eyes $1.58B India arbitration as U.S. investor interest grows
Update: 2025-12-02
Description
Panthera Resources CEO Mark Bolton joined Steve Darling from Proactive’s OTC Studio in New York City to discuss the company’s ongoing focus on international arbitration linked to its Bhukia Gold Project in India.
Bolton explained that, while Panthera is fundamentally a gold exploration company with assets spanning West Africa and India, its primary value driver at present lies in its legal action under the Australia-India bilateral investment treaty. The company is pursuing a substantial $1.58 billion claim against the Indian government, positioning the arbitration as a potential game-changer for shareholder value.
“The focus right now is essentially on pursuing a bilateral investment treaty claim and arbitration,” Bolton said, highlighting that the legal process has been ongoing for three years and is now well-advanced. A hearing has been scheduled for December 2026, with several procedural milestones already established. Bolton underscored that this timing could present a unique entry point for investors: “This is actually a really good time for investors to get involved,” he added.
In addition to its legal pursuits, Panthera is actively increasing its visibility among U.S. investors. The company recently achieved a listing on the OTCQB under the ticker PATRF, a move driven by strong investor demand rather than corporate necessity, according to Bolton.
Outside of the arbitration, Panthera continues to manage and develop its exploration assets in West Africa, with further updates expected as projects progress. The combination of ongoing litigation potential and core exploration operations, Bolton noted, provides multiple avenues for value creation for investors.
