MetalNRG is working towards building a global natural resources business to deliver industry leading returns to shareholders through a consolidation of tier two assets over the next five years.
The current primary focus is on one particular copper project that the Company are in advanced discussions to secure
MetalNRG holds a 9.9% stake in IMC, with an option to increase that interest. The value of MetalNRG's stake in IMC was fully impaired in 2022, and is held at zero value, due to the previous prohibition on uranium mining in the Kyrgyz Republic.
MetalNRG are exploring all available options to maximise shareholder value from this project...and the possible sale of the Company's interest in the project.Ā
MetalNRG's internally estimated NPV of this project was, prior to the ban on uranium mining in Kyrgyzstan, approximately US$250 million (based on current prices of US$91/lb for U3O8). This figure is subject to revision following the reversal of the uranium mining ban.
The Company maintains a small 3% equity stake in Lake Victoria Gold, ("LVG")...LVG recently announced the acquisition of two deposits that support their objective of accretive growth and consolidation.
Gold Ridge is the Company's 100% owned, previously producing gold mines in Arizona. Gold Ridge continue to offer upside for the Company...The Company is now seeking earn in partners to enable further development of the asset and we expect to make further announcements on progress in the coming months.
BritENERGY Holdings LLP will acquire (or will procure purchasers for) MetalNRG's remaining equity shareholding in BritNRG Limited, for a consideration of no less than £180,000 at a future date and in respect of which an interim payment of £40,000 was made.
The remainder of the year presents the Company with large opportunities. We expect to see the culmination of the last 12 month's work come to fruition later in the year and the Company looks forward to supplying further updates as matters progress.
Imo, hinderences now cleared/dealt with, just potentially positive news to look forward to, if they play it right. Looks like the copper RTO is imminent.
