Audit opinion
Unqualified (clean)
Going concern
Affirmed

“The Directors are satisfied that following the successful completion of fundraising in January 2025, which raised gross proceeds of US$ 8,160,000, the Group has sufficient cash reserves to sustain the minimum level of exploration spending that is required as part of licence conditions and minimum corporate overheads activities for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of signing these financial statements. Therefore, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in the preparation of the financial statements.”

Year-on-year

FY2023 → FY2024 · period ending 2024-12-31 vs 2023-12-31

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
