The latest update is out from St. Barbara ( (AU:SBM) ).
St Barbara has secured an extension of Mining Lease ML 136 for its New Simberi Gold Project in Papua New Guinea until 2038, aligning the tenure with the project’s mine life based on current ore reserves. The extended lease satisfies a key condition precedent for the previously announced strategic investment by China’s Lingbao Gold Group and the acquisition of a 20% stake in the Simberi asset by state-owned Kumul Minerals, clearing a major hurdle towards a final investment decision targeted for the third quarter of FY26 to lift gold output above 200,000 ounces a year and reinforcing Simberi’s role in the region’s gold sector and local economic development.
The most recent analyst rating on (AU:SBM) stock is a Hold with a A$0.73 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on St. Barbara stock, see the AU:SBM Stock Forecast page.
