Tharisa PLC CEO discusses solid Q2 performance and innovative energy storage solution

Tharisa PLC

Tharisa PLC (LSE:THS, JSE:THA, OTC:TIHRF) CEO Phoevos Pouroulis takes Proactive's Stephen Gunnion through the company's second-quarter production performance and future prospects. While Tharisa reported a slight decrease in chrome concentrate production to just over 400,000 tonnes, Pouroulis said the company remains on track to meet its annual guidance of 1.7 to 1.8 million tonnes. PGM production remained steady at 35.3 thousand ounces, with full-year guidance set at 145 to 155 thousand ounces, requiring improved recovery in the second half. Progress was made at the Karo platinum project in Zimbabwe, with construction continuing despite a slowdown in capital expenditure, awaiting the finalisation of project financing. Pouroulis also highlighted Tharisa's innovation strategy with the official launch of Redox One, a chrome iron redox flow battery technology for grid-scale, long-duration energy storage, developed from the company's chrome concentrate. The technology, aimed at decarbonizing the company's footprint, supports the use of renewable energy beyond daylight hours. The CEO also discussed a $5 million share repurchase programme, taking advantage of the impact of depressed PGM prices on the company's share price. The interview concluded with a reflection on the company's 10th anniversary of Tharisa's JSE listing and a positive outlook for the third quarter, focusing on improved PGM recoveries.

Premier African Minerals Ltd

Premier African Minerals Ltd (AIM:PREM, OTC:PRMMF) chief executive George Roach provides an update on the Zulu lithium and tantalum project in Zimbabwe alongside news of a £2 million fundraising. Roach told Proactive's Stephen Gunnion the company has made progress in addressing some design issues within the project, enhancing the efficiency of material processing for the floatation plant. Roach detailed upcoming modifications to the plant's plumbing, expected to resolve remaining challenges, particularly in the flotation section, aimed at improving recovery rates. These modifications are part of the project's final stages before commissioning. In addition to operational updates, Premier African Minerals has raised £2 million through the issuance of new shares, as well as a $300,000 working capital facility with a local lender in Zimbabwe. Roach said the funds are designated for working capital, supporting the mining operation's considerable expenses, including diesel for power generation and mining costs, as the project advances towards an anticipated production rate of over 70,000 tonnes per month. Investors are advised to look for upcoming milestones, particularly improvements in the flotation process expected to enhance production tonnages. The company remains focused on resolving the final challenges of the flotation plant to reach its production goals. Contact Details Proactive UK Ltd +44 20 7989 0813 uk@proactiveinvestors.com

Bluebird Merchant Ventures: advancing gold mines in the Philippines and South Korea

BlueBird Merchant Ventures Ltd

BlueBird Merchant Ventures Ltd (LSE:BMV) executive director Aidan Bishop updates Proactive's Stephen Gunnion on the three gold mines the development company plans to bring into production. The company's projects include the Batangas Gold Project in the Philippines, where the company originated, and two historic mines in South Korea, the Kochang and Gubong projects. Currently, these mines are in the permitting process, with feasibility studies completed. The Gubong project, once South Korea's second-largest gold mine, is notably larger, and discussions are ongoing for a local joint venture partnership to advance this project. Bishop emphasized the critical importance of local partners in navigating permitting processes, understanding local customs and issues, and contributing capital. For the Batangas project, a local partner is funding key milestones towards production, including obtaining an environmental compliance certificate and completing a declaration of mining project feasibility. Reopening the South Korean mines is viewed as cost-effective, with potential for significant gold reserves. The company aims to become a 100,000-ounce-per-year gold producer, leveraging the reported potential for over a million ounces at Gubong and the upside at Kochang. Short-term milestones include advancing environmental and mining feasibility studies at Batangas, awaiting the Board of Audit and Inspection's decision for Kochang, and finalizing a joint venture agreement for Gubong.
