Net asset value per Ordinary Share: 66.3 pence.

The NAV per share has increased by 0.3% versus the unaudited NAV at 31 August 2023 with exchange rate movements offsetting the fall in the share price of Tungsten West on the AIM market when it confirmed it would need to raise further financing before the end of 2023 to remain a going concern.

The Company had a total of 106,462,502 Ordinary Shares in issue with a further 700,000 shares held in treasury as at 29 September 2023.

Futura Resources Limited ("Futura")

On 11 September 2023 the Company announced that Futura had made a first closing of a financing package sufficient to fund the commencement of production of steel-making coals at its Wilton Mine in Queensland, Australia by the end of 2023. The funding package comprised a A$22 million 3-year term unsecured redeemable convertible note issue, accompanied by in-kind commitments from a number of contractors and suppliers to the value of c. A$5 million. Since that date Futura received further subscriptions for the convertible note such that it has closed at approximately its maximum level of A$30 million.

The Company invested A$4.7 million (£2.40 million) in the convertible note, rolling its existing outstanding A$0.7 million bridging loan together with a further investment of A$4 million. As a result of the additional subscriptions, the Company's equity interest in Futura will reduce from the current 26.9% to 24.3%, assuming full conversion by noteholders. The Company also holds a 1.5% gross revenue royalty from future production from both Futura's mines.

It is currently expected that Futura's second mine, Fairhill, can be commissioned utilising cash generated by Wilton. However, this might be accelerated should Futura decide to raise further finance (likely to be debt) once Wilton is in production. A total of some A$50 million is required to fund development of both the Wilton and Fairhill mines. The additional subscriptions will therefore not only provide Futura with additional contingency for the reopening of the Wilton Mine but will also move forward the start of production at Fairhill.

According to Futura management forecasts, the combined Wilton and Fairhill mines are expected to produce around 2 million tonnes per annum of saleable product when they are in full production in 2025, generating an EBITDA of A$92m, based on forward coal price expectations.
