An announcement from Alien Metals Ltd ( (GB:UFO) ) is now available.
Alien Metals has highlighted its growing exposure to high-grade silver through a 30% interest in the Elizabeth Hill Silver Project in Western Australia’s West Pilbara and an 8.7% equity stake in joint venture partner West Coast Silver. The company, better known for its Hancock iron ore development and broader Pilbara portfolio, is positioning this silver asset as a complementary value driver alongside its core iron ore strategy.
West Coast Silver has reported an inaugural JORC-compliant mineral resource estimate of 2.79 million ounces of silver at 617 g/t at Elizabeth Hill, including both Indicated and Inferred resources above a 20 g/t cut-off. The resource, located on a granted mining lease and open at depth and along strike, confirms Elizabeth Hill as one of Australia’s highest-grade silver deposits and provides Alien with direct leverage to potential resource growth, future project development and associated economic studies.
Pit optimisation work suggests reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction within a compact open pit that captures almost all current mineralisation, including historically mined underground areas. With a significant portion of ounces still in the Inferred category and substantial upside from further drilling across the wider land package, the maiden estimate is seen as a foundation inventory that could enhance Alien’s long-term portfolio value and shareholder exposure to silver.
Spark’s Take on UFO Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, UFO is a Neutral.
The score is held back primarily by weak financial performance (no revenue, ongoing losses, and negative free cash flow) despite improved 2024 loss and cash-burn trends and low leverage. Technicals are comparatively strong with price above key moving averages and positive MACD, while valuation remains constrained by the company’s loss-making profile and lack of dividend support.
