Sunstone targets resource growth and partnerships at Ecuador gold-copper projects

Sunstone Metals Limited ( (AU:STM) ) has shared an announcement.

Sunstone Metals reported further progress at its Bramaderos gold-copper project, where the current 3.6Moz AuEq resource is confined to pit-constrained Brama-Alba-Melonal deposits, leaving substantial upside from a broader exploration target of 5–13Moz AuEq. Recent drilling and trenching at the Copete-Porotillo area delivered long mineralised intervals, supporting expectations of significant resource growth, longer mine life and stronger future cash flow, while a 30-for-1 share consolidation and engagement of RBC Capital Markets aim to position the company for strategic partnerships around its two Ecuadorian projects.

At El Palmar, Sunstone outlined a 1.2Moz AuEq mineral resource at the outcropping T1 porphyry target and a large exploration target of 15–45Moz AuEq across multiple prospects, underlining the district-scale potential of the northern project. With $4.7 million in cash at quarter-end and advancing economic studies at Bramaderos following a positive scoping study, the company is seeking to unlock value from its world-class gold-copper portfolio for shareholders and potential partners.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:STM) stock is a Buy with a A$0.95 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Sunstone Metals Limited stock, see the AU:STM Stock Forecast page.
