  • The cash price falls 60% to $14m from $35m.
  • $2.5m has been paid, and of the $11.5m still owed, $9.0m only falls due once lithium is sold at Laguna Verde.
  • Remaining payments:
    • $1.0m on receipt of >$10m from a strategic partner
    • $1.5m at the start of construction
    • $4.5m 60 days after cumulative sales of 10,000t LCE, or lithium carbonate equivalent

  • The first tranche accounts for just ~0.6% of enlarged voting rights and should be admitted around 24 August.
  • Missed milestones can transfer up to 49% of the Chilean project company (ASL) to the vendors, with CleanTech able to buy those shares back by settling the missed payment.
  • The vendors must drop all legal claims and criminal allegations within five days.
  • Focus now moves to finding a strategic partner, the CEOL lithium operating permit and the environmental study.

Cornish Metals* (TIN LN) 106.5p, Mkt cap £134m – Second tranche of shareholder credit facility drawn

  • Cornish Metals confirms that it has now drawn the 2nd tranche of its ~£52m credit facility with major shareholders, the National Wealth Fund, which holds ~28.45% of Cornish Metals, and Vision Blue Resources (~29.08%), which was announced in May.
  • The tranche “comprises £13.9 million from the National Wealth Fund and US$9.1 million (approximately £6.7 million) from Vision Blue”.
  • As Cornish Metals progresses the restart of tin production at its South Crofty mine in Cornwall, the funds “will be applied to continue underground development, construction of surface facilities and infrastructure”.
  • CEO, Don Turvey, said that “Drawing the second tranche keeps South Crofty moving at pace while we finalise the longer-term funding package on terms that are favourable for investors”.
  • He explained the importance of “Maintaining momentum on-site … as we continue to advance South Crofty towards a restart of tin production … [and said that the exercising of their discretion to release the 2nd tranche of the facility] … reflects the continued backing of our two largest shareholders”.

Conclusion: Credit support from the main shareholders is allowing work at South Crofty to be maintained at pace as Cornish Metals works to restart tin production at the historic mine.

  • Resolute Mining reports H1 2026 post-tax profit of US$162.6m (H1 2025 –US$71.0m), and H1 EBITDA of US$323.9m (H1 2025- US$228.8m).
  • The financial results reflect production of a total of 104,795oz of gold at an all-in-sustaining cost of US$2,327/oz (H1 2025 – 151,460oz at US$1,688/oz).
  • Resolute Mining confirms that “production guidance … [is] … on track to be around the lower end of the 250 – 275 koz guidance range. Group AISC of $2,000 – 2,200/oz is maintained, however it is subject to change with elevated gold prices and higher fuel costs.
  • CEO, Chris Eger, commented that “Resolute has delivered a strong first half of 2026, generating significant operating cash flow and ending the period with a net cash position of $317.4 million … underpinned by continued strength in the gold price, disciplined cost management and the resilience of both Syama and Mako”.
  • The Syama mine contributed 73,683oz of production at an all-in-sustaining cost of US$2,399/oz (H1 2025 – 89,263oz at US$1,972/oz) with Mako producing a further 31,112oz at US$1,605/oz (H1 2025 – 62,201oz at US$1,104/oz).
  • The company highlights the development approval for its Doropo project in Cote d’Ivoire where “Construction activities ramped up with early works, site infrastructure and procurement packages advancing in line with plan”.
  • During the six months, Doropo received US$41m of capital expenditure and the project “remains on track and on budget with first gold targeted in H2 2028.
  • Resolute Mining also highlights the expansion of the ‘Inferred’ mineral resource at its ABC project, also in Cote d’Ivoire, to 133 Mt at an average grade of 0.71 g/t Au hosting 3m oz of gold.
  • The upgraded resource reflects “more than 31,000 m of drilling completed in 2026” increasing the 2021 ‘Inferred’ 2.2moz resource estimate of 72mt at an average grade of 0.93g/t gold in the Kona South and Kona Central deposits.
  • Additional “infill drilling, technical studies, permitting and environmental workstreams … [at a cost of US$15-25m are underway] … with the objective of advancing the project through feasibility studies and mining application work by the end of 2027”.
  • In Senegal, exploration is focussed on “the Tomboronkoto and Bantaco projects that have the potential to extend the life of the Mako Mine.
  • Tomboronkoto and Bantaco currently report a mineral resource of “over 800 koz of gold, with possibilities of expansion based on ongoing exploration … [with the Tomboronkoto] … orebody remaining open along strike to the west and at depth”.

Conclusion: Production guidance for 2026 is being maintained in the range 250,000 – 275,000 oz as Resolute Mining benefits from strong gold prices to increase H1 EBITDA & after-tax profit. Development of the Doropo project in Cote d’Ivoire is expected to deliver initial gold production in H2 2028.

Rome Resources (RMR LN) 0.28p, Mkt Cap £24m – Resource modelling identifies additional mineralised targets at Kalayi

  • Rome Resources reports the identification of two additional tin target zones at its Kalayi project in the eastern DRC.
  • Independent resource modelling by the MSA Group as part of its mineral resources update “has identified two new mineralised zones, MINZ8 and MINZ9” southeast of the current resource area.
  • Today’s announcement explains that “these zones will not be incorporated into the forthcoming MRE … [as they need] … further drilling to establish continuity … [but that they illustrate] … the potential resource growth beyond areas currently drilled to resource density”.
  • The need for additional drilling at MINZ8 and MINZ9 is highlighted by their being “currently supported by a single drill intersection in borehole KBDD033 … [which, as] … previously reported … included a 19.5m intercept (downhole width) averaging 0.52% plus additional shallower intercepts”.
  • CEO, Paul Barrett, said that the “identification of MINZ8 and MINZ9, alongside identification of a significant undrilled continuation of the high-grade trend to the southeast, gives us clear targets for the next phase of drilling and further resource growth at Kalayi”.
  • Mr. Barrett confirmed that the forthcoming updated MRE “remains an important near-term milestone and … [said that the] … new targets demonstrates the significant potential beyond the areas sufficiently drilled for inclusion in the current MRE”.
  • In October 2025, Rome Resources reported an initial mineral resource estimate for Kalayi of 0.33m inferred tonnes at an average grade of 1.36% tin and an inferred resource of 3.16mt at an average grade of 1.45% copper, 0.19% tin, 2.72% zinc &14.3g/t silver at the nearby Mont Agoma deposit.

Conclusion: Resource modelling for the forthcoming mineral resource update has identified additional resource potential, still to be drilled, southeast of the current Kalayi resource. Their recent discovery will mean they will not form part of the new MRE but they could offer resource expansion potential for the future

Talisman Metals (TLM LN) 7p, Mkt Cap £3.9m – £0.5m placing to fund exploration in Morocco

  • Talisman Metals has raised £501,800 by placing ~7.2m shares at a price of 7p/share to new and existing shareholders.

  • We estimate that the new shares represent around 10% of the enlarged company.
  • CEO, Timothy McCutcheon, said that as “we progress to the start of drilling later this summer, management chose to top-up the Company’s treasury to give more flexibility on the use of capital for field work”.
  • He said that the “fundraise will enable further expansion of the exploration at Tirzzit and Fougnar during the current year”.
  • The company has previously announced plans for 3,000m of reverse circulation drilling at its Tirzzit project where it has identified sediment-hosted stratiform copper/silver mineralisation and fieldwork has established similar mineralisation at Fougnar.
