"the loss potential is unlimited while the gain is limited"
That does not pretain to mining stocks with a predetermined mining reserves. In which case the stock value of a large miner quickly takes on the characteristics of the commodity mined, with some biasing. What a person can do is determine the lower limit, and position themself in. And than follow a strategy of long/short. With the benifiet of options, you can jump in at any value.
