Strategic Minerals Leverages Strong Cobre Cash Flow to Accelerate High-Grade Redmoor Project and Monetise Leigh Creek

Strategic Minerals ( (GB:SML) ) has provided an announcement.

Strategic Minerals reported a transformational 2025, underpinned by strong production and sales at its Cobre magnetite operation, which delivered its third-highest annual ore sales in 14 years and generated about US$4.23 million in revenue, providing stable cash flow to fund growth. The company advanced its flagship Redmoor tungsten-tin-copper project with high‑grade drilling results, positive metallurgical test work, and progress toward an updated mineral resource estimate in early 2026, reinforcing Redmoor’s status as one of the highest‑grade undeveloped tungsten deposits in Europe. Additional momentum came from a 470% share price rise on AIM, a UK government grant of around £764,000 to accelerate Redmoor toward pre‑feasibility, and renewed investor outreach. Strategic Minerals also moved to monetise its Australian Leigh Creek Copper Mine through a staged A$9 million sale to Cuprum Metals, while ending 2025 with US$0.78 million in cash after substantial investment in its Cornwall exploration programme, signalling a strategic shift toward leveraging Cobre’s cash generation to develop Redmoor into a significant Western supply source for tungsten, tin and copper.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:SML) stock is a Hold with a £1.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Strategic Minerals stock, see the GB:SML Stock Forecast page.

Strategic Minerals’ overall score is driven by strong corporate developments and a solid financial recovery in 2024.
