Strategic Minerals Provides Updates on Leigh Creek Copper Mine and Redmoor Project

Why we think this is neutral

The RNS provides positive updates on the company's progress in monetizing the Leigh Creek Copper Mine and advancing the Redmoor Project through a drilling program. However, the lack of financial information and details on the Cobre magnetite project, as well as the potential risks associated with the Redmoor Project, temper the overall sentiment.

Key Points

  • LCCM to receive A$100,000 call option payment
  • CRL secures drilling contract for Redmoor Project
  • Redmoor drilling program part-funded by UK Shared Prosperity Fund
  • Drilling program to inform new JORC (2012) resource estimate for Redmoor
