About the company

Europa Metals Ltd is a lead-zinc exploration company focused exclusively on European projects.

The company believes Europe, and in particular Spain, is an unrealised region for modern mine development and that the opportunity to create new mines within a best practice social and environmental framework, near first class infrastructure, is significant.

Currently, the company is progressing its Toral Lead, Zinc and Silver Project towards the mine development phase.

How it is doing

01 Nov 2023

Europa Metals Ltd (AIM:EUZ, JSE:EUZ) said that the past year had seen it work "diligently and very successfully" on the technical aspects of the Toral project in Spain, increasing both resource size and grade

With a new partner in Denarius and funding in place, the de-risking process at its Toral project in Spain will continue, according to a statement accompanying its annual results for the year to end June 2023.

A Mining Licence Application has been submitted to the relevant authorities with a subsequent Pre-Feasibility Study to follow, it added.

Net losses for the year were US$3.3 million (US$2.5 million).

Europa Metals Ltd (AIM:EUZ, JSE:EUZ) confirmed on Monday that a formal licence application for the Toral mining project in Spain has been submitted.

Europa Metals Ltd (AIM:EUZ, JSE:EUZ) said assays from the latest drilling at Toral in northwest Spain indicated mineralisation in all seven holes.

Environmental studies are also now nearing completion, it added. These will form part of the formal submission for a mining licence to the Mines Department of Castilla y León.

What the brokers say

07 Feb 2023

Europa Metals has made real progress at Toral in Spain since a PEA in 2020 and is significantly undervalued compared to its peers, according to house broker WH Ireland.

Toral is one of Europe’s most under-appreciated lead-zinc deposits, suggests WHI, with a real prospect of becoming a mine.

“The successful demonstration of ore-sorting introduces potentially huge economic upside and optionality in mine configuration,” the broker adds.

What management says

Europa Metals Ltd (AIM:EUZ, JSE:EUZ) executive chairman Myles Campion joins Proactive's Stephen Gunnion with news that the company has submitted a formal licence application for the Toral mining project in Spain.
