LONDON (Alliance News) - Alexander Mining PLC on Friday said its loss widened only slightly during the first half of the year due to higher research & development costs.
Shares in Alexander Mining closed up 7.35 at 0.12 pence on Monday.
In the six months to June 30, the mining and mineral processing company posted a pretax loss of GBP276,000, only just widening from GBP261,000 as research & development costs increased to GBP103,000 from GBP65,000.
Alexander Mining recorded no revenue for the period as its projects are currently in development. It reduced its administrative expenses to GBP174,000 from GBP196,000.

"We are also actively reviewing and submitting commercial proposals on several complementary opportunities of interest in the mining sector. However, we continue to remain prudent with regards to the deployment of the company's cash," Clegg added.
