In recent weeks, Alba told investors that it had identified a new high-grade regional gold target within the group’s exploration licence area close to the Gwynfynydd Gold Mine in Wales.???
The discovery was made during a recent field exploration made by Alba over a gold target in the extensive exploration licence area which lies close to the Gwynfynydd Gold Mine.??
Alba is planning to undertake a follow-up field campaign of mapping and bedrock sampling in August 2021, which will aim to identify further examples of mineralisation and to better constrain the structures that are potentially critical for both styles of mineralisation.?
Meanwhile, Alba also gave investors an update on its plan to divest its Greenland assets, namely the Amitsoq, TBS, Melville Bay and Inglefield Projects, into a separate vehicle.???
As outlined in May 2021, subject to regulatory approval, the Company’s separate vehicle, which is also referred to as “New Listco”, will seek to be admitted to trading on AIM.????
New Listco will acquire the Greenland Projects from Alba for shares, and simultaneously with the listing New Listco will undertake an Initial Public Offering fundraising to secure the necessary working capital to fast-track the development of the Greenland Projects, it noted.???
In addition, Alba's recently proposed Greenland-focused, spin-out company will enable it to form a new vehicle that could unlock ‘real and sustained value’ across its Greenland projects which the company views as being ‘materially undervalued’ within its current asset portfolio.????
As part of the Spin-Out Transaction, Alba will receive New Listco shares valued on IPO at around £6 million, resulting in Alba becoming the majority shareholder of New Listco.???
