Largo Targets Copper and Critical-Minerals Byproducts at Maracás Menchen, Extends US$6 Million Loan

Largo Resources ( (TSE:LGO) ) has shared an announcement.

Largo has launched new geological and metallurgical studies at its Maracás Menchen complex to evaluate the continuity and recoverability of disseminated copper mineralization, after internal flotation tests conducted for platinum group metals unexpectedly indicated that copper could be recovered as a byproduct using conventional flotation. The company is examining how copper, PGMs and gold—now considered critical minerals and trading near record prices—can be economically extracted alongside vanadium and titanium, including the potential use of existing ilmenite flotation infrastructure to limit capital spending and shorten timelines, thereby improving the competitiveness of its vanadium business amid weak vanadium prices. In parallel, Largo has extended the maturity of a US$6 million secured promissory note with ARG International AG to February 2027 under unchanged terms except for a 1% extension fee, modestly shoring up its near-term liquidity as it pursues these byproduct recovery initiatives.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:LGO) stock is a Hold with a C$1.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Largo Resources stock, see the TSE:LGO Stock Forecast page.
