Southstone Minerals ( (TSE:SML) ) has issued an announcement.

Southstone Minerals Limited has announced a strategic move to diversify its operations by acquiring Afrium Energy Pte. Ltd., which holds uranium prospecting licenses in Botswana. This acquisition aims to reduce Southstone’s reliance on its South African operations and capitalize on the growing global demand for nuclear energy. The deal involves a complex equity transaction where Afrium shareholders will obtain a significant stake in Southstone, and the company plans to raise additional capital to support its existing diamond mining operations. This strategic diversification is expected to enhance shareholder value by expanding Southstone’s asset portfolio and positioning it for future growth in both the diamond and uranium sectors.
