Material uncertainty over going concern
We draw attention to note 2 of the financial statements, which indicates that the Group and the Company generated a loss for the year and will require additional funding in the short to medium term in order to continue to fund the Group's and the Company's operations and to meet its liabilities as they fall due. The Group's and Company's pro- jected working capital requirements, expenditure for further exploration, level of projected production and financial returns thereon are dependent on the Group's and Company's ability to secure additional funding. As stated in note 2, these events or conditions, along with the other matters as set forth in note 2, indicate that a material uncertainty exists that may cast significant doubt on the Group's and the Company's ability to continue as a going concern. Our opinion is not modified in respect of this matter.

Each % is (latest − prior) ÷ |prior| for the line item as filed. The comparison is only shown when the latest and prior accounts cover broadly equal-length periods — short or long stubs (typical around incorporation or a year-end change) are suppressed rather than misrepresented. Lines a company doesn't report are omitted. About these numbers
