General mining & base metals

Thor Mining heartened by the improvement in tungsten prices

During the year, the strong rebound in the tungsten market was sustained, and molybdenum also picked up very strongly, supporting the directors' view that its strategy of commercialisation of these assets is realistic

Thor Mining PLC (LON:THR) said in its full-year results, it is in a significantly enhanced position compared with the same time a year ago.

The improvement in tungsten prices, and the upgraded definitive feasibility study for the Molyhil tungsten project in Australia’s Northern Territory, support the board’s confidence that it can secure finance for the project.

Meanwhile, the group’s other two core projects – Pilot Mountain and Kapunda – have advanced considerably.

The pre-revenue development company saw the loss before tax remain steady at £1.25mln compared to the year earlier.

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of June stood at £1.37mln, up from £405,000 a year earlier.

#THR @ThorMining is setting up nicely - ridiculous undervaluation and I am expecting a stunning return. One of best opps I have seen imo.
