😮 Adriatic – Grades So Good We Thought It Was A Typo

Adriatic Metals PLC (ASX:ADT, LSE:ADT1, OTCQX:ADMLF) reported on recent exploration results at the Company’s flagship Vares Silver Project in Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Highlights:

9.30 m @ 2,624.8 g/t AgEq or 84.40% ZnEq

13.00 m @ 3,064.3g/t AgEq or 98.53% ZnEq

8.30 m @ 1,446.3g/t AgEq or 45.50% ZnEq

We thought these were a typo and after looking over their many other results, which you can check out above, we understood it’s all true.

We’re speechless.

👏 Gratomic Seals Deal

Gratomic Inc. has entered into a Commercial Partnership and Sales Agreement with TM2 Verticals, selling graphite concentrate for joint supply of value-added applications, primarily Alkaline Batteries. 

The partnership agreement involves profit sharing and a premium on high-grade concentrate.

Gratomic has sent a pilot order to TM2 from its Aukam Vein Graphite mine. The resulting Purified Flake Graphite will be used in Alkaline Batteries.

This partnership is a first in the industry, indicating vertical integration benefits.

The contract stipulates annual delivery starting at 4,200 tonnes/year, reaching 7,260 tonnes/year over five years.

🤞 Robex Feasibility in Guinea

Robex Resources Inc. (TSXV: RBX) has just published main points of their soon-to-be-published Feasibility Study for the Kiniero Gold Project in Conakry, Guinea.

At base-case US$ 1,650/oz pre-tax

NPV5 US$ 251 m (26% increase)

IRR 42%

At spot US$ 1,950/oz pre-tax

They’ve done it before in their producing mine in Mali, can they do it in Guinea? We’ll be watching.
