Kevin Keats is part of a long line of prospectors in his family, one that stretches all the way back to his great-great-grandfather, and now includes his own sons.
In 1969, Noranda Explorations opened an office in Gander. Mr. Keats and his son Allan thought the company might be interested in the lost silver mine.
In 2007 Ted and Allan Keats for the Keats-Stares prospecting family received the Bill Dennis Award for a Canadian discovery or prospecting success:
The four generations of this Newfoundland family have all been involved in prospecting. Ted, the father, was involved in the discovery of the Point Leamington, Burnt Pond and Tally Pond zones. Sons Al, Calvin, Fred, and Suley followed in their father’s footsteps. Al worked with his father on the Point Leamington and Tally Pond discoveries and also discovered Duck Pond and Winter Hill. Calvin has worked all over the world, discovering South Golden Promise and numerous uranium showings in Labrador. Fred discovered a 36-ounce/ton VG boulder on the Appleton Linear for Noranda (now optioned to Paragon). Suley discovered the Beaver Brook deposit with Calvin and has been looking for uranium in Labrador. The following generations – grandsons and great grandsons – are all actively involved in prospecting.

To quote Peter Dimmell "I say prospectors have an advantage over geologists because they don't know scientifically what to look for. They look in all the wrong places and find all the right stuff. They just go out, and see something different, and bang on it, smack it with a hammer. That's how these guys worked.
"It's a sixth sense. You go in the woods, and all the rocks look the same. But for some reason one looks different to these guys. And they break it."

In this episode you will first see an interview Gerry did with Allan Keats at Central Minex 2023 and immediately following that you will see an interview Gale Force Wins did with Allan and his son Kevin at Central Minex 2024.

Edison Gardiner was born and raised in Kew North Caicos. His island life is not that dissimilar to Newfoundland and Labrador. He talks about his father and uncles building a wooden sloop boat that is very similar to the past of Newfoundland and Labrador.

John Reid was born and Raised in Gander, Newfoundland and Labrador and educated in St. John's. He navigated a successful 30-year career in the telecoms industry, with a track record of driving growth, leading complex integrations, improving customer experience, and introducing a culture of innovation and employee satisfaction. He held executive positions at publicly-traded and private companies serving non-metropolitan areas across Canada, and in several developing countries in the Caribbean and Latin America region. In 2018 he decided to chart a new path and focus on a few micro-business opportunities with his family. This is where the Bynx Cafe comes in.
Bynx is a proudly family-owned-and-operated small business located in downtown Orlando, Florida. They deal in gently used vinyl, collectible books, as well as music and counterculture ephemera, while also serving up specialty coffee, wine, beer, and light eats in their café. In the back of the shop is a project recording studio – perfect for cutting your next single or full-length release.

Bynx was born out of a passion for arts & culture, and for a desire to create a “third place” for coffee lovers, whose passion for quality specialty coffee is only matched by their desire to spend time working, relaxing, or socializing in a welcoming environment. Their partnership with Portland-based Industry leader Water Avenue Coffee and local roaster Otus Coffee ensures the high standard of coffee products that are critical to their primary objective. Similar to Bynx, both partners are family-owned, whose values line up perfectly with Bynx as a community-focused small business owner.

Their intention was to develop a community space that would inspire creativity and camaraderie, with a focus on quality and service. Throughout their shop, you’ll notice odes to musical and artistic giants, but they also support emerging and local creatives as well. That’s indeed one of the main reasons they built the stage in their café, and why they regularly host an array of events – from music to culinary to art.
To quote John "Love what you do and where you do it!"
