Hannan Metals Ltd ( (TSE:HAN) ) just unveiled an update.

Hannan Metals has reported initial results from the first-ever drill holes at the Ricardo Herrera prospect within its 100%-owned Belen project in Peru, confirming a complex, multi-phase intrusive system with early copper-molybdenum mineralization overprinted by later gold-silver events. Although grades to date are modest, the program has validated the geological potential of this emerging Miocene back-arc porphyry-epithermal belt, with six holes totaling over 2,600 metres now completed across three prospects and assays from Sortilegio still pending. Drilling is scheduled to restart in early February after a wet-season pause, with follow-up holes planned at Sortilegio and Vista Alegre to test unexplained gold-bearing boulders and geophysical anomalies, while the Previsto target has been elevated to flagship status after an expert review highlighted strong similarities to major alkaline gold deposits such as Cripple Creek and Porgera. Supported by more than C$9 million in working capital and an expanded on-the-ground geological team, Hannan is gearing up for an aggressive 2026 exploration campaign that could materially reshape its resource base and strengthen its strategic position in a potentially world-class mineral belt.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:HAN) stock is a Hold with a C$0.81 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Hannan Metals Ltd stock, see the TSE:HAN Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on TSE:HAN Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, TSE:HAN is a Neutral.

The score is driven primarily by weak financial performance from a pre-revenue, loss-making model, partially offset by a conservative balance sheet with no debt. Technicals add a modest drag given a weak longer-term trend and negative MACD, while valuation remains challenged due to negative earnings and no dividend support.
