Forrestania Resources Limited ( (AU:FRS) ) has shared an update.

Catalina Resources has agreed to acquire 100% of the Breakaway Dam Copper Project from Forrestania Resources, gaining a drill‑ready, copper‑dominant VMS system with confirmed sulphide mineralisation and recent diamond drilling that intersected broad and higher‑grade copper and Cu–Zn zones, creating a strong pipeline of follow‑up exploration targets. As part of a broader portfolio optimisation, Catalina will divest its Laverton gold assets to Forrestania, fund the deal entirely in equity and options to preserve cash, secure a $0.5 million strategic placement from Newcam Minerals to support near‑term exploration, and add a second district‑scale gold growth platform via the acquisition of Auric North, moves that collectively sharpen its strategic focus, enhance exposure to a structurally constrained copper market, and align counterparties’ interests with long‑term shareholder value creation.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:FRS) stock is a Hold with a A$0.38 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Forrestania Resources Limited stock, see the AU:FRS Stock Forecast page.
