Strategic Minerals Ramps Up Redmoor Drilling as Tungsten Prices Hit Record Highs

Meet Samuel – Your Personal Investing Prophet

An update from Strategic Minerals ( (GB:SML) ) is now available.

Strategic Minerals has launched a resource infill drilling programme at its Redmoor tungsten‑tin‑copper project, beginning with drillhole CRD042 from Pad 4 as part of a prefeasibility study aimed at upgrading inferred resources and supporting a maiden ore reserve. Backed by recent equity raises totaling £8.7m, the six‑month programme marks a major scale‑up of activity, with roughly as many metres planned as have previously been drilled by Cornwall Resources to date.

The company reported strong early visual indications of mineralisation in initial core and is advancing additional geological and geochemical work, including new sampling and re‑analysis of historical core and pulp samples, to refine Redmoor’s resource model. Recent high‑level political engagement, completion of a UK Shared Prosperity Fund work programme, and tungsten prices at historic highs well above the project’s prior upside assumptions underline Redmoor’s strategic status as a leading domestic critical minerals asset and could strengthen its case for further government and grant support.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:SML) stock is a Buy with a £3.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Strategic Minerals stock, see the GB:SML Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on SML Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, SML is a Neutral.

The score is primarily supported by improved 2024 financial performance and strong technical uptrend signals. It is materially constrained by expensive valuation (high P/E and no dividend yield data) and technical overbought indicators that elevate near-term risk.
