An update from White Cliff Minerals Limited ( (AU:WCN) ) is now available.

White Cliff Minerals has advanced its Rae Copper-Silver Project with the restart of the remote camp, mobilisation of supplies, and the commencement of reverse circulation drilling at the Danvers prospect targeting extensions along the 8–10 km Teshierpi Fault Zone. Diamond drilling of sediment-hosted targets at Stark and Hulk is scheduled to follow, supported by strong metallurgical results showing copper recoveries above 90%, high silver recoveries and the ability to produce a high-grade, clean concentrate via a simple flotation flowsheet, which materially de-risks potential future processing.

To streamline its asset base and fund exploration, the company agreed to sell its Great Bear Project for A$5.8 million in cash and shares and plans an in-specie distribution of a large portion of the share consideration to its own investors, retaining a minority stake in the buyer. These steps, together with the appointment of a new non-executive chair and director, reposition White Cliff to focus capital and management attention on expanding the Rae Project’s high-grade breccia-vein system and emerging sediment-hosted copper targets, potentially improving its competitiveness in the copper exploration sector.

The most recent analyst rating on (AU:WCN) stock is a Buy with a A$0.05 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on White Cliff Minerals Limited stock, see the AU:WCN Stock Forecast page.
