Cannacord update April '228 Apr 2022 12:36
"Greatland Gold PLC (AIM:GGP, OTC:GRLGF) shares could nearly double in price, according to a target set by stockbroker Canaccord Genuity (TSX:CF, LSE:CF), which has reacted to Thursday’s upgrade to resources at the Havieron project in Australia.
Repeating a ‘speculative buy’ recommendation and a 25p price target (current price 14p), in a note, Canaccord set the scene for further gold upgrades in the future.
“We expect further upgrades to the resource and reserve base over time, and flag our base case assumption of an 11mln ounce resource which underpins our 25p target price,” Canaccord analyst Sam Catalano said.
“Notably, this resource update has been released ‘unilaterally’ by Greatland Gold (and independently assessed by SRK Consulting), following Newcrest’s decision not to include recent drilling for Havieron in its most recent update to resources and reserves across its portfolio.”
The analyst added: “While investors will likely be hoping there is much more to come on the resource front, we believe it is worth acknowledging the impressive progress in delineating a further 2.3moz of AuEq resource in just 12 months, from 21km of growth drilling.
“We look forward to further strong drilling/resource updates from the current 90km programme (~40km of growth), any news flow on the Havieron option price, and the DFS due in 2H22.” Source: Proactive Investor website. GLA
