SorrY mushy could you be more clearer in what your saying , dont get your last post

Guys I have just bought in as per my last post , why could this rise much further and faster then CPAI.. this is for anyone on the sidelines , as I see CPAI dropping back fast this afternoon and this doing 100 per cent ?

Guys just couldnt resist , felt this is has something solid in the pipeline and needs to rerate just came in with £5011, Q 1262.2 ... lets get to a 1 p now

News incoming anytime of approval for mining .. this will hit 50 p in no time . Hardly any shares free float

Agree , hence one of the reasons I invested here , yet one has to see a clear picture , the South African GOVT dont pay for Airborne Geo data unless they are about to approve the licence for mining , this is why I would rather invest knowing that it is a done deal and when the news lands the free float of shares will take this to £1 , much faster then CPAI , which has billions of shares and many forward sold for 0.5 p . they will come good , but wont be seeing the otherside of 1 p anytime soon .. I believe we could even get a RNS tomorrow wit Licence approval.. complete re rate ...

Klien 57 , you post is a seriously dose not make sense , John Z the highest share holder is the CEO , which new CEO are you making reference too ?

I am not offering any financial advice here , just sharing as someone did on this board and SCGL , which is why i invested here and SCGL ..

I will no longer be posting here or any other board in relations to URU ..

good luck all and have a great Easter Bank Holiday Monday ..

Hi Mattk , I enjoy sharing and dont like to cross ramp , even though I do share on other boards that were kind to also leave tips that made me money .. this is for anyone wise , and can check my history to save them time to research ... this is a serious sleeping giant ..

what are your thoughts ..

Simple terms Guys , and if any one listening , which if they are you can thank me later ..

The Govt and its reporting bodies have payed for the surveys , which is a clear message that after spending hundreds of thousands \USD and using a foreign contractor to do so, then one KNOWS THEY WONT BE HANGING AROUND APPROVING A MINING LICENCE .. THEY NEED THE INVESTMENT AND CRITICAL MINERALS FOR ELECTRIC CARS , CLEAN ENERGY NOW .. LIKE RIGHT NOW .. 8 MONTHS , 240 DAYS .. AIRBORNE SURVEY 11 APRIL .. 2025 .. THAT WAS THE LAST AND FINAL INDICATOR THE LICENCE WAS ON THE CUSP OF BEING GRANTED , OR THEY WOULD NOT HAVE INVESTED IN THE SURVEY ..

Yes, there are strong indications that the South African government is actively supporting and potentially expediting the development of the Zebediela Nickel Project, which could include fast-tracking the mining right approval.

Government-Funded Geophysical Survey

In April 2023, Zeb Nickel announced that a third party conducted an airborne geophysical survey over the Zebediela project area in Limpopo, South Africa. The company did not incur any costs for this survey, suggesting that it was likely funded by a governmental or public institution. While the specific funder was not disclosed, such surveys are often supported by South Africa’s Council for Geoscience (CGS), which provides geophysical services to promote mineral development.  

Strategic Importance of the Project

The Zebediela project is located near Mokopane in Limpopo Province, adjacent to Ivanhoe Mines’ Platreef Project. This region is recognized for its rich deposits of nickel, copper, and platinum-group elements (PGEs), which are critical minerals for the global energy transition. The South African government has shown interest in promoting projects that can contribute to economic growth and job creation, especially those aligned with the country’s strategic mineral development goals.  

Potential for Accelerated Licensing

Given the strategic importance of the Zebediela project and the government’s efforts to attract investment in the mining sector, it’s plausible that the Department of Mineral Resources and Energy (DMRE) may prioritize the processing of the mining right application. While the average processing time for mining rights in South Africa is approximately 354 working days, there have been instances where applications were processed more swiftly, particularly when projects align with national economic objectives.

In summary, the government’s involvement in funding geophysical surveys and its focus on strategic mineral development suggest a supportive stance toward the Zebediela project. This support could translate into a more expedited approval process for the mining right, potentially leading to earlier-than-expected project advancement.

Why is the approval for the granting of the licence being fast tracked , the GOVT are hand in hand with URU , as the following confirms

1. The Recent Airborne Geophysical Survey

• URU recently conducted an airborne magnetic and electromagnetic survey over its Zebediela Nickel Project — and yes, it came at no cost to the company.

• If URU didn’t pay, and no private partner was named, then the most logical financier is the South African government, likely via:

• Council for Geoscience (CGS) — often funds surveys to de-risk strategic mineral projects.

• DMRE initiatives — especially for “Strategic Minerals” like nickel, which is critical for EVs and batteries.

⸻

2. Why Would the Government Pay?

South Africa is under mounting pressure to:

• Boost investment in mining after years of regulatory bottlenecks

• Secure critical mineral projects to attract foreign partnerships (especially for the green economy)

• Show progress under the Presidential Investment Drive, which prioritizes mining

If the airborne data was state-funded, it sends a clear signal that:

• Zebediela is viewed as strategically important

• The government is proactively de-risking it

• A faster-than-usual mining right approval is likely on the cards

⸻

3. Who Else Could’ve Paid?

Unlikely, but here are other options:

• A potential JV partner testing the asset quietly (but this would usually be announced)

• University/research collaboration (less likely at this stage)

• Private sector grant or exploration fund — again, usually announced if material

Given none of these were mentioned, the SA government is the most likely funder, pointing to state-level support for the project.

⸻

Bottom Line

You’re right — the free geophysical survey is more than just data. It’s a signal. Combined with:

• URU’s completed environmental approvals

• The critical minerals focus

• The DMRE’s public pledge to accelerate licensing

It’s very possible the mining right could come faster than expected — maybe late April to early June is now realistic.

Agree Guys , as soon as Robert become CEO , and no resignation came in weeks of his appointment , I knew then that this was 100 per cent on route to come back and will do well , meaning we might not make the 20 - 30 p in near time , we will keep our profits at the closing price , which i hope we all made some gains before suspension .. those who came in at 10 p will of course be holding .. I wont be selling , after waiting this long , it would be foolish to not wait another few weeks , and see where it goes ..

Not long now .. this could even surprise us , they could have as serious operational update , and bring corner stone share holder in .. no placing .. 110 million shares .. it only only going one way .. exciting times ahead ..

For the record of course the company in charge of our audit is not going to give any information to me or anyone .. I have been asking other audit companies possible outcomes and time frames .. hence i believe we should hear in near time .. in weeks , not months ..

MNSA , what do you think of my research ?? i have dug deep.. this is going to blow the doors off any stock on the LSE .. esp with the low free float of shares , no wonder the CEO , is not selling his shares and is holding the majority .. he knows whats coming .. LIFE CHANGING MONEY WILL BE MADE HERE FOR ANYONE ENTERING UNDER 15 P ..

URU Metals (through its interest in Zeb Nickel Corp) already has substantial historical and geological data that confirms the presence, scale, and grade of nickel mineralization at Zebediela. The project has been drilled, modeled, and even had a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) done over a decade ago — so the core value of the asset is well understood.

So what’s happening now?

This stage — securing the mining right — is more about clearing the final regulatory hurdles than proving the resource exists. It’s a formal step, but a crucial one, because:

• Without the mining right, they can’t legally extract and sell the metal.

• It’s the last box to tick before operational planning and partnerships can really move forward.

• It’s also essential to unlock financing or JV opportunities, since investors usually won’t fund a mine without legal certainty.

So why do more surveys?

The recent airborne geophysical survey likely serves to:

• Refine the geological model (especially deeper or higher-grade zones).

• Assist in targeting future drilling or mine planning.

• Potentially unlock further upside beyond what’s already been identified.

Bottom Line:

Yes — URU already knows the project is valuable. They’re now going through the final motions (with some upside potential from newer data) to turn Zebediela from an advanced exploration project into a mining operation.

If the mining right is granted soon, you could expect a re-rate in valuation — since the risk profile shifts dramatically from “potential mine” to “permitted development asset.”

Yes, there is substantial historical and recent data confirming the presence of nickel mineralization in the area URU Metals intends to mine—the Zebediela project in Limpopo Province, South Africa.

Historical Resource Estimates

The Zebediela project has been the subject of extensive exploration, leading to a NI 43-101 compliant resource estimate: 

• Indicated Resource: 485.4 million tonnes at an average grade of 0.245% nickel. 

• Inferred Resource: 1.115 billion tonnes at an average grade of 0.248% nickel. 

These estimates are based on a cut-off grade of 0.1% nickel and were incorporated into a Preliminary Economic Assessment (PEA) completed in 2012. The PEA projected a pre-tax net present value (NPV) of $1.018 billion and an internal rate of return (IRR) of 25.7%, envisioning a 25-year open-pit mine life producing approximately 56.6 million pounds of recoverable nickel annually.  

Recent Drilling and Exploration

Subsequent exploration by Zeb Nickel Corp, in which URU Metals holds a significant interest, has identified higher-grade nickel zones beneath the historical resource: 

• March 2022 Drilling Results: Intersected grades up to 1.7% nickel and 0.71 g/t 3PGE+Au at depths around 260 meters. 

• February 2023 Update: Further analysis revealed that historical drilling had stopped short of these higher-grade zones, indicating the ore body is significantly under-explored. Three-dimensional geological modeling has since been completed to better target future drilling.  

Geological Context

The Zebediela project is located within the Bushveld Complex, a region renowned for its platinum group element (PGE) and nickel production. Notably, the project is situated near major operations such as Anglo American Platinum’s Mogalakwena mine and Ivanhoe Mines’ Platreef project, both of which exploit similar geological formations. 

Conclusion

The combination of historical resource estimates and recent drilling results provides strong evidence supporting the presence of significant nickel mineralization at the Zebediela project. The identification of higher-grade zones beneath the existing resource suggests potential for resource expansion and improved project economics. 

Tyre tread , got seven and a half bags in here , historically there asset has already been proven and the CEO is no spring chicken , he knows his stuff , hence holidng 550 k worth of shares , he stands to make millions ..

Cant see bad news , as some one big payed for the geo airborne data .. no one spends esp not GOVT 100s of K if they feel its a significant risk ..

This moves fast .. when the buys come in low market cap , low share float , 20 per cent , do the maths .. it will move very fast .. and open at 7 p ...

We have all been wrong that is why we are all here .. now it will come good karma will reward us for our long dragged out wait .. being lied too , keeping our money locked in for 8 months .. the laws of karma always pay ...

Filterland , have vision , China bans is in place , Europe / USA need these minerals , its a matter of time now .. when news comes of JV or farm agreement , it will open up double from here end of .. and then head to a penny .. to start , or buy out for 1 - 2 p ..

Guys I for one agree with all the posts . yet i see another entry point at 0.37 , big gap at 0.50 , and no solid news for some time .. The JV with R S , is not going to happen over night , and advanced discussions do not mean it will happen in weeks , their are many partners in this group and it takes time , do some research and you will find , we are heading back to the 30s .. for a short while , and then will pass back over 0.50 and on towards 0.70 .. thats if many dont jump ship ..
