The short version

Peter van Alphen is listed as an executive officer and director on 5 SEC Form D filings by 2 issuers between Mar 2020 and Dec 2024: Premier Gold Mines Ltd (Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) — industry reported as "Other" — 2020; $24M reported sold to 60 investors) and Nuvau Minerals Corp (Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada (as filed: A6) — industry reported as "Other" — 2023–2024; $2.69M reported sold to 31 investors).

What this means 2 separate companies raised money with this person listed as executive officer and director, over about 4 years. Across those companies the filings report $26.7M sold in total.

Listed alongside Ewan S. Downie (5 shared filings), Steve Filipovic (5 shared filings), Fariah Mir (3 shared filings), Michael Vitton (3 shared filings), Steven Bowles (3 shared filings) and 8 others.

What this means These are the other officers, directors or promoters the companies named on the same forms — the team around Peter. Each name links to their own page.

1 of the issuers belongs to the sponsor group Premier (2 issuers, $5.14M reported sold, 2010–2020).

What this means A sponsor group is one team that sets up a new company for each deal. Premier has 2 companies on file and $5.14M reported sold in total — the group page shows the whole track record in one place.

Public records searched: federal courts (CourtListener / RECAP), SEC enforcement releases, state securities regulators (AK, AL, AR, AZ, CA, CT, DE, FINRA, GA, HI, ID, IL, KS, KY, LA, MA, MD, ME, MI, MO, MS, MT, NASAA, NC, ND, NH, NM, NV, OK, OR, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, VT, WA, WI, WV, WY) — none found.

What this means Nothing turned up where we looked (3 sources). That does not prove there is nothing — it means none was found in those sources on that date.

We compared 5 public filings for Peter van Alphen and found 8 differences, 5 worth asking the sponsor about: Amount sold went down between filings; Paid seller listed without a CRD number: National Bank Financial Inc; and more below.

What this means These are differences between the sponsor's own SEC filings — both values, dates and sources are listed in Key records, section 4. Most have ordinary explanations; ask the sponsor.

4. Differences between public sources

Comparisons cover issuers and sponsor groups — see the issuer pages under Deals

8 differences found between the filings for Peter van Alphen — 5 worth asking about (compared 5 filings on Oct 24, 2026)

Worth asking · Dec 11, 2023 – Apr 12, 2024

Amount sold went down between filings — Nuvau Minerals Corp

The Dec 11, 2023 filing says $1,500,000 sold; the Apr 12, 2024 Form D/A says $1,314,000 sold — $186,000 less.

What this means Amounts sold normally only go up as a raise continues. A drop can mean investors were refunded, a figure was corrected, or an earlier number was wrong. Ask the sponsor which it was.

Sources
Worth asking · Oct 3, 2024 – Dec 5, 2024

Paid seller listed without a CRD number: National Bank Financial Inc. — Nuvau Minerals Corp

National Bank Financial Inc. is listed as receiving sales compensation on 2 filings (Oct 3, 2024 to Dec 5, 2024) with no FINRA CRD number given.

What this means People paid to sell securities normally hold a FINRA registration with a CRD number. Without one we cannot look them up on BrokerCheck. Ask who they are and whether they are registered.

Sources
Worth asking · Oct 3, 2024 – Dec 5, 2024

Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Canaccord Genuity Corp — Nuvau Minerals Corp

Canaccord Genuity Corp is listed as receiving sales compensation on 2 filings (Oct 3, 2024 to Dec 5, 2024) with no FINRA CRD number given.

What this means People paid to sell securities normally hold a FINRA registration with a CRD number. Without one we cannot look them up on BrokerCheck. Ask who they are and whether they are registered.

Sources
Worth asking · Dec 5, 2024

Paid seller listed without a CRD number: Eight Capital — Nuvau Minerals Corp

Eight Capital is listed as receiving sales compensation on 1 filing (Dec 5, 2024) with no FINRA CRD number given.

What this means People paid to sell securities normally hold a FINRA registration with a CRD number. Without one we cannot look them up on BrokerCheck. Ask who they are and whether they are registered.

Sources
Worth asking · Jul 26, 2024 – Oct 3, 2024

Form D filed 69 days after the first sale — Nuvau Minerals Corp

The filing says the first sale was Jul 26, 2024. The Form D was filed Oct 3, 2024 — 69 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 54 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Nov 24, 2023 – Dec 11, 2023

Form D filed 17 days after the first sale — Nuvau Minerals Corp

The filing says the first sale was Nov 24, 2023. The Form D was filed Dec 11, 2023 — 17 days later. The rule: a Form D is generally due within 15 days after the first sale, so this one is 2 days past that.

What this means A late notice is common and carries no penalty by itself. It is worth asking the sponsor why the paperwork lagged.

Sources
Note · Nov 24, 2023 – Apr 12, 2024

No amendment in the last 12 months on an offering that may still be open — Nuvau Minerals Corp (latest filing Apr 12, 2024)

The latest filing for this offering is dated Apr 12, 2024 (first sale Nov 24, 2023). It reports $1,314,000 sold of an indefinite amount offered. No later amendment is in our index as of Oct 24, 2026.

What this means SEC rules expect a yearly amendment while an offering is still going. The raise may simply have ended — a Form D does not say when it closed. Ask the sponsor whether the offering closed, when, and at what amount.

Sources
Note · Dec 11, 2023 – Apr 12, 2024

Peter van Alphen's role changed at Nuvau Minerals Corp: executive officer → executive officer, director

The Dec 11, 2023 filing lists Peter van Alphen as executive officer; the Apr 12, 2024 Form D/A lists executive officer, director.

What this means Roles on Form D are self-reported by the issuer. A change can mean a real change in who runs the company, or just a different box ticked. Ask who makes decisions today.

Sources
What is compared

What is compared: every Form D and D/A we hold for this subject, side by side — filing dates vs. first-sale dates (the 15-day rule), amendment timing on open offerings (the yearly-amendment expectation), amounts sold, investor counts, offering amounts and minimums across amendments, industry and size bands, addresses, how each person's name and role is written, paid sellers' CRD numbers, and (for groups) where the member companies were formed and sit. Everything is as filed by the issuer; the SEC does not check it. Differences are common and usually have ordinary explanations — we show both values, the dates, and the source so you can ask. As of Oct 24, 2026.

How this is counted

Counts come from Form D Items 12–15 on the filings in our index (latest filing per offering; one offering = one SEC file number; an amendment updates its offering rather than adding one). "To insiders" = gross proceeds used for payments to executive officers, directors or promoters. "—" = not reported on that filing. Amounts marked (est.) were reported as estimates. "Paid to sell it" = sales compensation recipients named on that filing (Item 12), each linked to FINRA BrokerCheck when a CRD number is reported.

Counted across every filing this person is listed on (latest filing per offering, per issuer).
