Sovereign Metals says Kasiya has potential for industry-leading returns
Sovereign Metals Ltd
Sovereign Metals Ltd (ASX:SVM, AIM:SVML) MD Julian Stephens speaks with Proactive after announcing the results of a PFS for the company’s flagship Kasiya Rutile-Graphite Project in Malawi. He says it is a major critical minerals project with an extremely low carbon footprint underpinned by significant economic returns. Kasiya is the largest natural rutile deposit and second-largest flake graphite deposit in the world. The PFS is modelled on a life-of-mine (LOM) of 25 years, with initial probable ore reserves of 538 million tonnes, representing a conversion of only 30% of the total mineral resource. Kasiya is forecast to become the world’s largest rutile producer at 222,000 tonnes per annum and potentially one of the world’s largest natural graphite producers outside of China at 244,000 tonnes per annum. “The release of the Kasiya PFS marks another important step towards unlocking a major source of two critical minerals required to decarbonise global supply chains and to achieve net-zero,” Stephens said. “The project benefits from existing high-quality infrastructure and inherent ESG advantages. “Natural rutile has a far lower carbon footprint compared to other titanium feedstocks used in the pigment industry, and natural graphite is a key component in lithium-ion batteries – crucial to de-carbonising the global economy.” Contact Details Proactive Investors Jonathan Jackson +61 413 713 744 jonathan@proactiveinvestors.com

MTB Metals announces first three drill holes on Telegraph project intersect copper mineralization over 700 metres
MTB Metals
MTB Minerals CEO Lawrence Roulston joined Steve Darling from Proactive to share exciting updates regarding the ongoing drilling activities at the Telegraph copper-gold project in British Columbia's Golden Triangle. Roulston announced that the drilling has yielded evidence of porphyry-style alteration and mineralization in all three of the drill holes on the project. These widely spaced holes confirm the potential for an extensive mineralized porphyry system in the area. Importantly, the latest hole, which is the third drilled and located 700 meters southeast of the first hole, has intersected potassic alteration and copper mineralization with many similarities to the initial hole. Drilling is still in progress, and copper mineralization remains visible at the 500-meter mark. Notably, holes 1 and 3 have traced porphyry-style copper mineralization for a continuous strike length of 700 meters. The drilling project is proceeding according to schedule and is expected to continue through October. MTB Minerals is utilizing Induced Polarization (IP) geophysical surveys as a valuable tool for targeting on the property. To further enhance exploration efforts, the company has initiated an additional IP survey to fill the gap between two previous IP surveys, with this work scheduled for October. The area of interest has a high concentration of copper-rich soils, which could rapidly become drill targets for the upcoming season. These developments showcase the promising potential of the Telegraph copper-gold project and highlight MTB Minerals' commitment to thorough exploration and resource discovery. The company's ongoing efforts are aimed at uncovering the full extent of mineralization in this area of significant interest in British Columbia's Golden Triangle.
